Peter Kline has run over 100 marathons — a huge feat in itself.But what makes him so remarkable is that he has finished 45 of those marathons while pushing young people with disabilities in front of him.Kline wants them to know the joy of running too.
Kline started hitting the pavement when he was in his early 50s after running a 10 K with his nephew.Eventually,he began running marathons — with the goal of qualifying for Boston's famous race.And,years later,he did.
His friend Scott Patrick was diagnosed (诊断) with glioblastoma,a deadly brain cancer,and asked Kline to run the race to raise money for cancer research.Kline helped Patrick and other volunteers raise about ﹩60,000.Patrick passed away the same year,but not before Kline gifted him the finisher's medal.
Being able to help others through his beloved sport made an impression.Kline,now 66,told CBS News he knew of a father-son duo (二人组) who would run races together — the father pushing his son with disabilities as he completed the course.But,he wondered, "What about kids who don't have a dad to do that?"
After being connected to a woman with two daughters who have cerebral palsy (脑瘫),he decided to run the Rock 'n' Roll Las Vegas Marathon in 2012 with one of the girls.The little girl loved it,and Kline said his mission to share his love of the sport "just started rolling".He has named the mission, "Marathons with Meaning".
The young people he pushes have ranged in ages from 8 to 32 and have many types of disabilities,from cerebral palsy to traumatic brain injuries. "They love it.It's like their Super Bowl," Kline gushed. "They absolutely love the sounds,the noises,the feelings.As for the other runners,they're always very generous.They give them high-fives."
4. Whom did Kline start to run long-distance race with? ______
A. His nephew. B. His friend. C. His son. D. A little girl.
5. Why did Kline run the Rock 'n' Roll Las Vegas Marathon in 2012? ______

C. Determined and caring. D. Ambitious and reasonable.
7. What did other runners think of Kline's running with disabled children? ______

A Dutch city will become the first in the world to ban meat adverts from public spaces in an effort to reduce consumption and greenhouse gas emissions (排放).Haarlem,which lies to the west of Amsterdam and has a population of about 160,000,will enact the prohibition from 2024 after meat was added to a list of products thought to contribute to the climate crisis.
Adverts will not be allowed on Haarlem's buses,shelters and screens in public spaces,causing complaints from the meat sector that the city government is "going too far in telling people what's best for them".
Recent studies suggest global food production is responsible for one-third of all planet-heating emissions,with the use of animals for meat accounting for twice the pollution of producing plant-based foods.Forests that absorb carbon dioxide are cut down for the grazing (放牧) of animals while fertilisers used for growing their feed are rich in nitrogen (氮),which can contribute to air and water pollution and climate change.Livestock also produces large quantities of methane (甲烷),a powerful greenhouse gas.
Ziggy Klazes,a councillor from the GroenLinks party,who drafted the law banning meat advertising,said she had not known the city would be the world's first to enforce (执行) such a policy when she proposed it.She told the Haarlem105 radio channel, "We are not about what people are baking and roasting in their own kitchen;if people wanted to continue eating meat,fine...Of course,there are a lot of people who find the decision unacceptable,but there are also a lot of people who think it's fine."
The ban also covers holiday flights,fossil fuels and cars that run on fossil fuels.The ban is delayed until 2024 due to existing contracts with companies that sell the products.
Research suggests that to meet the EU target of net zero emissions by 2050,meat consumption must be reduced to 24 kg per person per year,compared with the current average of 82 kg,or 75.8 kg in the Netherlands,which is the EU's biggest meat exporter.
8. What does the underlined word "enact" in Paragraph 1 probably mean? ______
A. Lift. B. Keep. C. Draft. D. Pass.
9. What's the attitude of people from meat sectors to the new law? ______
A. Acceptable. B. Dissatisfied. C. Uncared. D. Supportive.
10. What's the main idea of the third paragraph? ______
A. The seriousness of air pollution.
B. The benefits of eating plant-based foods.
C. The reasons for banning meat adverts in public.
D. The importance of protecting the environment.
11. What's the maximum meat consumption for Dutch people annually to meet the EU 2050 target of net zero emissions? ______
A. 24 kg per person. B. 82 kg per person.
C. 75.8 kg per person. D. 105 kg per person.
D
COVID-19 changed a lot—how we socialized,where we went,and even what work looked like.A new study shows the pandemic (流行病) may have changed our personalities as well.
Psychologists have long believed that a person's characters stayed pretty much the same,even in the wake of stressful events.But by looking at pre-pandemic levels of neuroticism (神经质),extraversion (外向),openness,agreeableness and conscientiousness (勤奋而细心) and comparing that to data collected in 2021 and 2022,researchers found clear personality changes among the United States population.
"The pandemic was an opportunity to see how a collective stressful event may impact personality," said lead study author Angelina Sutin,a professor of medicine at Florida State University.
Extraversion,agreeableness and conscientiousness all declined in the US population in the years following the start of the pandemic,particularly in young adults,according to the study,published Wednesday in the journal PLOS One.
Why were younger adults more impacted?We don't know for sure,Sutin said,but there are theories. "Personality is less stable in young adults.Then at the same time,the pandemic disturbed what young adults are supposed to be doing.They're supposed to be in school or starting their careers.Then,everything was changed.However,the results didn't hold true for each person."
Researchers examined the data through the five-factor model,which hypothesizes (提出假说) that the various personality characters can come down to five important qualities:neuroticism,extraversion,openness,agreeableness and conscientiousness.
Over the entire population they examined,researchers found a declining trend in neuroticism in 2020,but the changes were small.Once they took 2021 and 2022 data into account,researchers saw a more significant decrease in extraversion,openness,agreeableness and conscientiousness.Neuroticism also increased over this time.That is especially significant considering how important those characters are,Sutin said.For example,conscientiousness is important for academic and work outcomes,as well as relationship and physical health,she added.
12. How do researchers get their study results? ______
A. By comparing data collected in different periods.
B. By collecting data from different people.
C. By making experiments in a university.
D. By building a five-factor model.
13. Which of the following would Sutin probably agree with? ______
A. Personality is more stable in old adults.
B. The study results hold true for every person.
C. Younger adults are less impacted during the pandemic.
D. American people are more likely to be influenced.
14. Which one of the qualities is important for relationship and physical health? ______
A. Neuroticism. B. Extraversion.
C. Openness. D. Conscientiousness.
15. What's the best title for the text? ______
A. Pandemic Has a Great Impact on People's Life
B. Young Adults Adapted Quickly During the Pandemic
C. Different Personality Characters Influence Social Relationships
D. People Experienced Personality Changes During the Pandemic

Become a Better English Student with These Study Tips
●Study every day.
Learning any new language is a time-consuming process,more than 300 hours by some estimates.Rather than try and cram (临时死记硬背) a few hours of review once or twice a week,most experts say short,regular study sessions are more effective. (1) ______
●Keep things fresh.
Instead of focusing on one single task for the entire study session,try mixing things up.Study a little grammar,then do a short listening exercise,then perhaps read an article on the same topic.Don't do too much. (2) ______ The variety will keep you engaged and make studying more fun.
●Read,watch,and listen.
Reading English-language newspapers and books,listening to music,or watching TV can also help you improve your written and verbal comprehension skills.By doing so repeatedly,you'll begin to unconsciously absorb things like pronunciation,speech patterns,accents,and grammar.Keep pen and paper handy and write down words you read or hear that are unfamiliar. (3) ______ Use them the next time you are role- playing dialogues in class.
●(4) ______
Even advanced students of English can struggle to learn prepositions (介词),which are used to describe duration,position,direction,and relationships between objects.There are literally dozens of prepositions in the English language (some of the most common include "of" "on" and "for") and few hard rules for when to use them.Instead,experts say,the best way to learn prepositions is to memorize them and practise using them in sentences.Study lists such as this one are a good place to begin.
●Write it down.
Repetition is the key as you're learning English,and writing exercises are a great way to practise.Take 30 minutes at the end of class or study to write down what happened during your day. (5) ______ By making a habit of writing,you'll find your reading and comprehension skills improve over time.
A.Practise your prepositions.
B.20 minutes on three different exercises is plenty.

The day began as usual,with my husband,Alan,entering his office in our home to catch up on paperwork and participate in conference calls.He had worked his way up the corporate ladder (阶梯) and now managed multiple stores for a national restaurant chain.From my spot in the kitchen,I could hear him speaking on the phone to his boss.Suddenly,I overheard words that seemed unusual.When he exited his office moments later,my fears were confirmed.Alan was fired.I hugged my sweet husband as my heart sank,and my mind raced.What were we going to do?Would we lose our house if we couldn't afford to pay our mortgage (房屋抵押贷款)?
"We'll be fine," he said.
"I know," I responded.
But,frankly,neither one of us was very convincing.
I wanted to go back in bed and pull the covers over my head,but I had to get to my own job.So,I quickly showered,dressed,and made my way to work.I was a few hours into my shift when I received a call from the surgeon's office.I had been noticing some strange lumps (肿块) in my neck,and he'd been in the process of performing several tests to figure out the cause.
"It's lymphoma (淋巴瘤).You have cancer," he stated,way too matter-of-factly.I distinctly remember my precise response, "What?" I must have misheard.It sounded like he said I had cancer,but that was completely funny.I was a healthy runner.
Cancer was out of the question.Wasn't it?The surgeon repeated those terrible words.It was true:Cancer was in my body.
Alan pulled me into his arms when I arrived home,and I cried as he held me tight. "Someday in the future,we're going to write about today," he whispered in my ear, "and we'll call it Worst Day Ever.But we had to be strong and do something."

8~11.【答案】D、B、C、A
【解析】(1)词句猜测题。根据第四段的she had not known the city would be the world's first to enforce (执行) such a policy when she proposed it(当她提出这一提议时,她并不知道这座城市将是世界上第一个执行这一政策的城市)可知,划线词所在句子的意思是"Haarlem位于阿姆斯特丹以西,人口约为16万,在肉类被列入被认为会导致气候危机的产品清单后,该市将从2024年开始通过这一禁令",enact的含义是"通过(法律)",和pass意思相近。A.Lift.举起来;B.Keep.保持;C.Draft.起草;D.Pass.通过。故选D。
(2)观点态度题。根据第二段Adverts will not be allowed on Haarlem's buses,shelters and screens in public spaces,causing complaints from the meat sector that the city government is "going too far in telling people what's best for them".(Haarlem的公交车、候车亭和公共场所的屏幕将不允许出现广告,这引起了肉类行业的抱怨,称市政府"在告诉人们什么对他们最好方面做得太过了"。)可以推测出,肉类行业对于法律的态度是不满意的。A.Acceptable.可以接受的;B.Dissatisfied.不满意的;C.Uncared.不关心的;D.Supportive.支持的。故选B。
(3)段落大意题。根据第三段的Recent studies suggest global food production is responsible for one-third of all planet-heating emissions,with the use of animals for meat accounting for twice the pollution of producing plant-based foods.Forests that absorb carbon dioxide are cut down for the grazing (放牧) of animals while fertilisers used for growing their feed are rich in nitrogen (氮),which can contribute to air and water pollution and climate change.Livestock also produces large quantities of methane (甲烷),a powerful greenhouse gas.(最近的研究表明,全球粮食生产占全球温室气体排放总量的三分之一,而食用动物肉类造成的污染是生产植物性食品的两倍。吸收二氧化碳的森林被砍伐以放牧动物,而用于种植饲料的肥料含有丰富的氮,这可能导致空气和水污染以及气候变化。牲畜还会产生大量的甲烷,这是一种强大的温室气体。)可知,第三段主要讲的是生产肉类对环境的不好的影响,因此第三段主要讲禁止在公共场合做肉类广告的原因。A.The seriousness of air pollution.空气污染的严重性;B.The benefits of eating plant-based foods.食用植物性食物的好处;C.The reasons for banning meat adverts in public.禁止公开肉类广告的原因;D.The importance of protecting the environment.保护环境的重要性。故选C。
(4)细节理解题。根据最后一段Research suggests that to meet the EU target of net zero emissions by 2050,meat consumption must be reduced to 24 kg per person per year,compared with the current average of 82 kg,or 75.8 kg in the Netherlands,which is the EU's biggest meat exporter.(研究表明,要达到欧盟2050年净零排放的目标,肉类消费量必须减少到每人每年24公斤,而目前的平均消费量为82公斤,荷兰是欧盟最大的肉类出口国,人均消费量为75.8公斤。)可以得知,研究表明,要实现欧盟2050年净零排放的目标,肉类消费必须减少到每人每年24公斤,荷兰人同样如此。故选A。
本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是为了减少碳排放,一个荷兰城市Haarlem做了全球首禁肉食广告。

在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等。
四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义。
12~15.【答案】A、A、D、D
【解析】(1)推理判断题。根据第二段But by looking at pre-pandemic levels of neuroticism (神经质),extraversion (外向),openness,agreeableness and conscientiousness (勤奋而细心) and comparing that to data collected in 2021 and 2022,researchers found clear personality changes among the United States population.(但是通过观察大流行前神经质、外向性、开放性、随和性和责任心的水平,并与2021年和2022年收集的数据进行比较,研究人员发现美国人的性格发生了明显的变化。)可知,为了得到研究研究结果,研究人员比较了不同时期收集的数据。故选A。
(2)推理判断题。根据第五段Personality is less stable in young adults(年轻人的性格不太稳定。)可以推测出:岁数大的成年人性情更稳定。故选A。
(3)细节理解题。根据最后一段For example,conscientiousness is important for academic and work outcomes,as well as relationship and physical health,she added.(例如,尽责性对于学业和工作成果,以及人际关系和身体健康都很重要。)可知,对于人际关系和身体健康而言,尽责性很重要。A.Neuroticism.神经质;B.Extraversion.外向性;C.Openness.开放性;D.Conscientiousness.尽责性。故选D。
(4)标题归纳题。通读全文,结合文章第二段Psychologists have long believed that a person's characters stayed pretty much the same,even in the wake of stressful events.But by looking at pre-pandemic levels of neuroticism (神经质),extraversion (外向),openness,agreeableness and conscientiousness (勤奋而细心) and comparing that to data collected in 2021 and 2022,researchers found clear personality changes among the United States population.(心理学家长期以来一直认为,一个人的性格几乎保持不变,即使是在紧张事件发生后。但是通过观察大流行前神经质、外向性、开放性、随和性和责任心的水平,并与2021年和2022年收集的数据进行比较,研究人员发现美国人的性格发生了明显的变化。)同时结合文章的其它内容可知,本文主要介绍了一项科学研究的结果:新冠发生以来,人们的性格因为受到防疫措施的影响而发生了改变。选项D.People Experienced Personality Changes During the Pandemic(在疫情期间,人们经历了性格的改变)符合题意,故选D。
本文是一篇说明文。新冠发生以来,生活的方方面面都受到防疫措施的影响,造成很多心理问题。最新的科学研究发现,连我们的性格都被改变了。
一、速读全文,了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力,考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。
二、看题干,带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等。
四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义。

(5)上文Repetition is the key as you're learning English,and writing exercises are a great way to practise.Take 30 minutes at the end of class or study to write down what happened during your day.(重复是学习英语的关键,而写作练习是一个很好的练习方法。在课程或学习结束时花30分钟写下你一天所发生的事情。)提出用写作来练习英语,F项"不管你是用电脑还是纸笔都没关系。"介绍了两种写作方式:用电脑和用纸笔,上下文语意连贯。故选F项。
