In the sprt f track and field, athletes cmpete nt nly with ne anther but against themselves, and in each race they try t achieve the new persnal best.
Fr ne Nebraska teen running in what wuld likely t be his final crss-cuntry uting befre graduating frm high schl, his persnal best turned ut nt t be marking the fastest time but displaying the biggest heart.
Althugh it was a lng sht when he came ut frm the starting psitin last Thursday, Brandn Schutt frm Bellevue East High Schl knew if his time was gd enugh that day, he still had the ptential t qualify fr the upcming state meet. A mile int the 3.1-mile race, hwever, Schutt realized he wasn’t ging t be able t keep up the necessary mmentum (势头). Rather than risking injury, he slwed t a cmfrtable pace that wuld allw him t simply get pleasure frm the mment and the day.
Meanwhile, Blake Cerveny frm Omaha Burke High Schl was running a very different kind f race. Aiming t beat his wn persnal recrd, after a fast start, he cntinued t push himself hard.
With less than 400 meters t g, Cerveny’s legs cramped up (抽筋), but he didn’t give up. Cerveny rse frm the grund and cntinued n, nly t fall again after anther 150 meters and again... Abut 100 meters away frm the finish line, he lay curled n the grund. His legs had simply given ut.
Befre Cerveny’s dad culd reach his sn, Brandn Schutt was at his side t ffer a helping hand. The tw cmpleted the final meters f the curse. Schutt even made sure the injured runner crssed the finish line first, securing his ppnent a faster time.

What is the mst shcking abut the heatwave affecting the Pacific Nrthwest is nt that it has hit a usually mild area, nr that s many lng-standing temperature recrds are being brken. It is that thse recrds are being brken by such large margins (幅度). In Prtland, Oregn, temperature reached 46.6℃(116°F) — making it ne f several cities in the regin where frmer recrds have been beaten by a full 5℃(9°F). At the same time, heatwaves are als hitting central Eurpe and even Siberia.
Heatwaves may becme headlines, but less attentin is paid t them. In 2018 abut 300,000 peple ver the age f 65 died as a result f extreme heat, mainly in India, a 54% increase since 2000, accrding t a reprt in the Lancet, a medical jurnal. The reprt als shws that, unlike strms and flds, heat des nt lead t dramatic befre-and-after pictures r widespread damage t belngings. It is a silent killer. As many as 70,000 peple died due t a heatwave in Eurpe in 2003.
Heat als kills by wrsening health cnditins such as heart prblems, s nt all the deaths it causes may be directly attributed (归因) t it. Climate change will make heatwaves mre cmmn and mre extreme. Even if greenhuse-gas emissins (排放) are cut t zer by the middle f this century, temperatures will g n rising fr decades. S ther measures are needed t prtect peple against extreme heat.
Gvernments can set up early warning systems t alarm health wrkers, shut dwn schls and stp utdr activities. They can prvide the public with frecasts f cming heatwaves, explanatins f the dangers and detailed advice n what t d. Imprved facilities can als help. This includes prviding shaded areas, water parks and “misting statins” t help peple cl dwn, and get t aircnditined “cling centers” where they can find shelter and sleep if necessary.
The wrld is, undubtedly, facing a big health challenge right nw. There is n excuse fr ignring heatwaves and their effects.
53. What shcks us mst abut the heatwave in the Pacific Nrthwest?
A. It has stricken a usually mild area.
B. It hits central Eurpe except Siberia.
C. Many temperature recrds are being brken.
D. Many recrds are being brken by large margins.
54. What can we learn frm the reprt in the Lancet?

D. Abut 300,000 middle-aged peple died frm extreme heat.
55. What can gvernments d t prtect peple against heatwaves?

C. Organize utdr activities.D. Shelter the hmeless.
56. What can be a suitable title fr the text?

Thugh diet and exercise are recmmended as ways t imprve health, new UC Riverside research in mice is the first t examine the lng-lasting, cmbined effects f bth factrs when they are experienced early in life.
“Any time yu g t a dctr with cncerns abut yur weight, almst withut fail, the dctr recmmends that yu exercise and eat less,” said researcher Marcell Cadney. “That’s why it’s surprising that mst studies nly lk at diet r exercise separately. In this study, we wanted t include bth,” he said.
The researchers fund that early-life exercise led t reduced anxius behavirs and an increase in adult muscle and brain mass. When fed Western-style diets high in fat and sugar, the mice nt nly became fatter, but als grew int adults that preferred unhealthy fd.
T btain the findings, the researchers divided the yung mice int fur grups — thse with access t exercise, thse withut access, thse fed a standard, healthy diet and thse wh ate a Western diet. Mice started their diets immediately after weaning (断奶), and cntinued with them fr three weeks until they reached adulthd. After an additinal eight weeks f “washut”, during which all mice were hused withut wheels and n a healthy diet, the researchers did a behaviral analysis and measured levels f several different hrmnes (激素).
One f thse they measured, leptin, is prduced by fat cells. It helps cntrl bdy weight by increasing energy cnsumptin and signaling that less fd is required. Early-life exercise increased adult leptin levels in adult mice, regardless f the diet they ate. Previusly, the research team fund that eating t much fat and sugar as a child can change the micrbime (微生物群) fr life, even if they later eat mre healthily. Ging frward, the team plans t study whether fat r sugar is mre respnsible fr the negative effects they measured in Western-diet-fed mice.
This study ffers great pprtunities fr health interventins in childhd habits. “Our findings may be related t understanding the ptential effects f activity reductins and dietary changes assciated with verweight,” said Marcell.
57. What is special abut the new UCR research?
A. It finds the relatin between health and diet.
B. It is the first t study the effect f exercise.
C. It takes bth exercise and diet int accunt.
D. It gives equal imprtance t physical and mental health.
58. What may early-life exercise cntribute t?
A. Strnger bnes.B. A peaceful mind.
C. A desire fr healthy fd.D. The varius micrbime fr life.
59. What des the underlined wrd “leptin” in the last but ne paragraph refer t?
A. A diet.B. A muse.C. A behavir.D. A hrmne.
60. What can we learn frm the last tw paragraphs?
A. Early-life health habits matter.
B. It’s never t late t make a change.
C. A healthy bdy leads t a healthy mind.
D. Dietary habits make a difference t children’s behavir
