When Kelvin Kiptum lined up fr his first cmpetitin in 2018, the new marathn star f Kenya did it in brrwed running shes, because he culd nt affrd a pair f his wn.
At the Chicag marathn f Octber, 2023, as Kiptum set an amazing wrld recrd f tw hurs and 35 secnds, the stry f his rise in marathn running is just as unbelievable as the lng steps he takes. “It has been a lng jurney fr me,” the Men’s Wrld Athlete f the Year tld the Sprts Channel. “It has cme true, and I am really happy.”
The father-f-tw is amng a new grup f Kenyan athletes wh began their careers n the rad, different frm the past traditin f athletes starting n the track befre shifting t lnger distances. Kiptum says his unusual chice was simply decided by a lack f resurces (资源). “I had n mney fr track training,” he explained. “S I started training with rad-running guys, and that’s hw I gt int marathn.”
Kiptum’s lve fr running arse frm watching his cusin running as a tp marathn athlete, but he had t make his family believe that he culd make it in athletics. “My father wanted me t be an electrician but I was saying that I needed t be an athlete—I had that eagerness,” Kiptum recalled. “That perid was very hard fr me because I trained fr fur years, yet there were n successes and they were disappinted in me. But I kept n pushing.”
Kenya is hme t sme f the wrld’s greatest marathn runners, but Kiptum has qualities that make him special, says reprter Martin Franklin. “The level f fearlessness that Kiptum shws in his race is what is needed t rise t the tp,” Martin adds. “Althugh his lightning-fast speed will lead t injuries in the future, Kiptum has made up his mind t becme the first man t break the tw-hur limit in marathn.”
39. What was Kiptum’s unusual chice?
A. Starting with rad training.B. Seeking training resurces.
C. Mixing rad and track training.D. Running with thers n the track.
40. Why is Kiptum different frm ther marathn runners accrding t Martin?

Gently hlding a baby hummingbird, Catia Lattu says, “Hell, cute little guy. Are yu hungry?” It’s the newest patient at her apartment in Mexic City, where she has nursed hundreds f the tiny birds back t health ver the past ten years. Under Catia’s gentle tuch, the bird relaxes little by little, allwing her t examine it. This is ften hw Catia’s days have gne since she turned her apartment int a hme fr sick, injured r baby hummingbirds.
Catia began caring fr hummingbirds a year after surviving cln cancer in 2011. It started with ne hummingbird that had an eye injured by anther bird. A friend encuraged her t try t help it. She named it Warrir after the brand (品牌) f the glasses case she kept it in. The bird became her inseparable cmpanin, resting n her cmputer screen while she wrked. “It wrte me a new life,” she said f the nine mnths the bird stayed with her. It helped pull Catia ut f the sadness and lneliness she had experienced after her husband’s death fllwed by her cancer.
Later, friends began bringing her mre hummingbirds, and the need fr her services has jumped since last year. She began studying hw t better care fr the tiny birds that are native t the Americans. Smene put a vide abut her wrk n the scial platfrm TikTk, which has been viewed mre than 1.5 millin times.
Catia says she never turns away a bird. She cares fr the birds frm 5 a. m. int the night. Mst f the hummingbirds stay in Catia’s bedrm until they are strng enugh t fly and feed themselves befre they are finally freed.
The city is filled with menace t hummingbirds. There are ther birds that attack them and destry (毁掉) their hme as well as mdern building prjects that replace flwer gardens. But Catia remains psitive and is certain that ther bird lvers will plant mre flwers t feed the birds. “Nthing is ensured,” she said. “But we d everything pssible.”

Time and time again, I hear smene ask why anyne wuld want t keep an “ugly” building r a building that is dirty and clearly in need f wrk. I think yu culd say we preservatinists (文物保护者) lk at buildings thrugh a different angle—an angle that can see the swan in the ugly duck, the stry in the simple lines, the bk behind the cver.
Take the Queen Emma Building fr example. While peple may remember that building being named as ne f the ugliest buildings in twn the angle frm which a preservatinist will view the building is that it is uniquely cnstructed with an artistical brise-sleil (遮阳板) t blck the sun. The designer used standard cncrete bricks t frm a decrative wall. Unfrtunately, the brise-sleil was remved in 2011, making the building lk like many f the cntemprary buildings in twn.
Smetimes peple remember a beautiful site that was replaced by a “hrrid” piece f architecture and can’t get ver their anger, even when that building becmes an imprtant part f ur stry. This is particularly true in San Francisc where many preservatinists themselves dislike anything newer than the Victrian era. Yes, it was a tragedy that many failed t appreciate the Victrian buildings and let many get trn dwn several decades ag, but thse lsses als tell anther imprtant stry. It tells the stry f the 1950s and 1960s when there was hpe fr a mre equal sciety with inexpensive husing fr the wrking class. Shuld that histry be wiped frm ur memries?
Preservatin is nt just abut keeping pretty, well-kept buildings, but abut cnveying parts f ur histry—nt just the histry f huge events, but the stry f hw everyne used t g t a certain crner market. Our histry cannt be tld nly in buildings that meet smene’s criteria f beauty; smetimes ur histry is painful, but n less imprtant.
46. Hw d preservatinists see buildings?
A. They fcus n their value rather than appearance.B. They pay great attentin t ancient buildings.
C. They are devted t repairing famus buildings.D. They prefer ugly buildings t beautiful nes.
47. What des the authr think f remving the brise-sleil f the Queen Emma Building?
A. It’s cnfusing.B. It’s pleasing.
C. It’s regrettable.D. It’s unbelievable.
48. Why were many Victrian buildings in San Francisc trn dwn?
A. T wipe the histry f the Victrian era.
B. T make land available fr cheap husing.
C. T wrk ff the deep anger f the wrking class.
D. T restre the architecture befre the Victrian era.
49. What is the authr’s intentin f writing this passage?
A. T intrduce sme buildings with histrical value.
B. T explain the reasn why architects make ugly buildings.
C. T praise the wrk f preservatinists.
D. T stress the imprtance f preserving ugly buildings.
50. Where des the text prbably cme frm?
A. A culture paper.B. A science bk.
C. An envirnment reprt.D. A travel magazine.

五、任务型阅读。(共10题,每题1分,共10分.)
Many f us have had this experience: we lie dwn in a bed ther than ur wn, perhaps at a friend’s huse r in a htel rm, and find it difficult t fall asleep. Is it because the bed is uncmfrtable? Maybe, but perhaps there can be ther reasns.
Accrding t a new study published in Current Bilgy, a significant reasn is what the scientists call “first night effect”. They believe that ne side f the brain acts as a “night watch” t give us a warning abut ptential (潜在的) dangers. It frces us t stay awake n the first night in a new envirnment.
Fr the study, 35 yung vlunteers were tld t sleep in a lab fr several days. Meanwhile, researchers watched their brain activities.
Accrding t the researchers, n their first night, the left brains were mre active than the right brains and peple had a hard time sleeping. Hwever, left-brain activity reduced as days went by, falling even t the pint f cmplete calm. In this prcess, the vlunteers gt an increasingly better sleep experience.
The findings suggest that the different rhythms (节奏) f the sides f the brain influence ur sleep. When the tw sides wrk differently, the balance between them is brken. Thus, the brain can’t relax and is sensitive t anything strange in the surrundings, just as it is in the daytime.
“At sme level, the brain is cntinuing t analyze (分析) things, even thugh yu dn’t realize the analysis,” US prfessr Jerme Siegel tld Smithsnian Magazine. “If smething unusual happens—if a dr pens r yu hear a key in a lck—yu can be alert (警惕的).” Mre surprisingly, this situatin is similar t the way sme animals sleep. Whales, dlphins, and many birds can sleep with half f their brain while the ther half stays awake.
If yu have ever had what yu think is “first night effect”, researchers suggest that yu bring yur wn pillw r sleep in a rm similar t yur bedrm next time yu sleep away frm hme.
