七、阅读单选

On May 7, Merle Liivand broke her own world record for swimming with a single fin in Florida. The “eco-mermaid（生态美人鱼）” even picked trash out of the water as she swam.

Merle was born in Estonia. As a child, she had health problems, and she began swimming to help her lungs（肺）get stronger. She was soon taking part in open water swimming contests, sometimes even in icy water.

A few years ago, Merle moved to Miami, Florida. Once she nearly swallowed（吞）some plastic while swimming in the sea. She decided to work to make people more aware of plastic pollution.

Merle first set the world record for swimming with a monofin (mono means one) in 2019, when she swam 6.2 miles off the coast of California. In 2020, she broke the record again.

Last year, she set a new Guinness World Record by swimming 18.6 miles, again in Florida. Merle has been getting up at 4 in the morning every day, going swimming. To help improve her strength, she sometimes even pulled other people in the water.

On May 7, Merle broke the record once more, this time swimming the length of a full marathon. It took her 11 hours and 54 seconds to swim 26.2 miles (42.2 kilometers).

The water was rough（汹涌的）, and she ran into a few problems, but she didn’t stop. “I got stung by jellyfish,” she said, “And I kept telling myself that it was not the time to cry.”

To keep her energy up, a friend followed her in a kayak and gave her food and water from time to time. Along the way, Merle picked up all the trash she found and put it in the kayak. By the end of her marathon, the kayak held three bags full of trash.

We’ve all been there. You’re working on a big project that needs to be finished by the end of the day, and somebody interrupts (打断) you to stop your work for a short period of time. For example, they show you photos of their vacation, or they tell you about their weekend. While those interruptions can be annoying, new research from the University of Cincinnati says that they could have some real benefits as well.

Researchers surveyed 111 people twice a day for three weeks, asking them questions about their experiences at the office that day. The survey asked them if they had been interrupted at work, how mentally tired they were, and how satisfied they were with their job.

The study found that while interruptions can have a negative influence on a worker’s productivity (效率), the social aspect of stopping work to talk to a coworker can help them feel more like they belong. That is to say, they feel comfortable or welcome in the situation or place.

The lead study author Harshad Puranik said that this feeling of belonging in the workplace can increase a worker’s job satisfaction, which is a feeling of happiness because one’s wants or needs have been met, even if the work itself is being negatively affected by the interruption.

If you still don’t want to be interrupted at work, there are some things you can do. For example, you can get to the office before anybody else arrives, so you have time to work alone, turn your phone off, or just tell people that you are too busy to talk.

43．As used in Paragraph 1, an “annoying” thing probably ________.

A．gets you to become interested in it B．allows you to learn from others

A．They’re satisfied with how much they are paid.

B．They have a short time to have a rest.

C．They can talk about photos of their vacation.

D．They feel more like they belong in the workplace.

45．The last paragraph is mainly about ________.

A．the tips of avoiding being interrupted at work

B．the importance of working alone

C．people who don’t want to interrupt others

D．the manners of talking with workmates

46．What is the best title for this passage?

A．How to finish your work by the end of the day

B．Being interrupted at work may be a good thing

C．The survey about people’s experiences at the office

D．Interruptions influence a worker’s productivity

There are millions of people throughout the world who are either born blind or have become blind over the course of their lifetime. It is unfair to take away the visual (视觉的) beauty of the world from these people. Doctor Humayun has created the world’s first bionic (仿生学的) eye that could change the life of every blind people in the world.

Doctor Mark Humayun is a well respected professor at the Doheny Eye Institute California. He has been working for years on creating a bionic eye that would allow blind people to see images just like a normal person does. The bionic eye is actually an eye that has been built in a small video camera.

The test results show the bionic eye has given blind patients the amazing ability to see the scientists doing the tests. But the images are still blurry (模糊的) and we need much work before the eye actually becomes a regular implant (植入物) into blind people. Humayun believes that he can go into production with the bionic eye over the next three to five years.

A closer look at the bionic eye is amazing. The patient wears a special set of eyeglasses. All the signals are passed to the implanted eye. It’s done by wireless technology. Humayun has created an invention that could change the lives of millions of people. Imagine a world in which someone would no longer have to fear about being blind. This could be considered a technological achievement.

Leading young people to take up physical exercise is really important. ____51____  But a report recently shows that only half of girls who were questioned by researchers enjoy doing sports. ____52____ What are the reasons? Because of their dislike of the clothes they are asked to wear and the lack (缺乏) of facilities (设备) to do their hair afterwards.

77．例文

What is a true friend? My favorite saying is, “A true friend helps to bring out the best in us.” As the proverb says, a true friend should help each other and make progress together.

Last term, I failed my English exam. I didn’t know what to do. At that time, my best friend Tom came to help me and encouraged me to study hard. When I had problems, he always tried his best to help me. At the same time, we often did some exercise for an hour every day because he was a little fat. With the help of each other, I made great progress in English and he became healthier and healthier.

All in all, a true friend is always ready to help each other and is willing to become better and better.
