The view frm the tp was breathtaking. It was 2023 and I had just climbed the Hvannadals Peak in Iceland, almst seven years after becming paralyzed frm the chest dwn after a climbing fall. My tw teammates and I were n ur way t becming the first all-disabled team t crss Eurpe’s largest ice cap, the mighty Vatnajökull glacier, unsupprted and unassisted.
A year befre, when Niall McCann first suggested making the 100–mile trip, I was excited by the prspect f returning t this lst wrld f crevasses (冰裂缝), muntains and ice, but upset and anxius abut whether I’d struggle. Back then, I still wuld have given anything fr my legs t wrk and t be able t walk again. But I was eager fr adventure and signed n t d the trip with McCann, wh had brken his back when paragliding, and EdJacksn, a frmer prfessinal rugby player wh had brken his neck in 2017.
This was ging t be the tughest challenge f my life. And yet, with each drive f my ples int the snw, I pushed myself further frm civilizatin — and clser t the man I’d nce been.
My mind drifted t the last time I was n a muntain befre my accident, climbing Mnte Rsa in the Italian Alps and feeling the addictive mixture f excitement and trepidatin. Thse same emtins returned as we battled thrugh pwerful strms and hidden crevasses befre we reached the ice cap’s highest pint.
I was at the tp when I was hit by an unexpected wave f emtin. I realized that, despite all that I had been thrugh — all the challenges and setbacks I had faced — if smene asked me if I wanted my legs back, I wuld have said n. That mment affected every aspect f my life and the way I perceived my disability. N lnger did I cnsider myself disabled r injured, because, if I culd reach the summit f a remte ice cap, I culd vercme the frustratins and setbacks f day-t-day life with resilience and persistence. Yes, I d still have a life-changing injury — but, fr me, it’s been fr the better.
4. What can yu knw abut the team?
A. It gt assistance frm an rganizatin.B. Its members all had a frm f disability.
C. It fllwed the steps f a similar previus team.D. It cnsisted f peple paralyzed dwn the chest.
5. What might have really caused the writer t hesitate abut the trip?
A. His paralyzed legs.B. Fear f ptential danger.
C. The lst wrld f ice.D. Lack f prper equipment.
6. What’s des the underlined wrd “trepidatin” in paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Fear.B. Bravery.
C. Happiness.D. Disappintment.
7. What did the writer think f his injury after he made it t the tp?
A. It left him nthing but all setbacks.B. It caused his unexpected bad emtin.
C. He wuldn’t knw his ptential therwise.D. He was trtured by the frustratins it caused.

A massive crack thrugh Africa is set t split the cntinent int tw and frm Earth’s sixth cean, an entirely new sea frm Ethipia t Mzambique, scientists have warned.
The s-called Eastern African Rift (东非大裂谷) frmed at least 22 millin years ag but has shwn activity ver the last few decades. Ken Macdnald, a prfessr, said, “What we d nt knw is if this rifting will cntinue n its present pace t eventually pen up an cean basin, like the Red Sea. Or might it speed up? At the present rate, a sea abut the size f the current Red Sea, might frm in abut 20-30 millin years.”
Eastern African Rift System (EARS) stretches frm the Gulf f Aden in the nrth t Zimbabwe in the suth. Researchers believe EARS is grwing larger because tw tectnic plates are mving away frm each ther. It likely frmed because f heat flwing up frm the htter, weaker, upper part f Earth’s mantle (地幔). Nw, a study fund that a massive eruptin f super-heated rck cming up frm ur planet’s cre is driving the rifting.
Gephysicist D. Sarah Stamps cmpared a rifting cntinent’s different defrmatin styles with playing with Silly Putty (黏土玩具). “If yu hit Silly Putty with a hammer, it can actually crack and break,” said Stamps. “But if yu slwly pull it apart, the Silly Putty stretches. S n different time scales, Earth’s lithsphere (岩石圈) behaves in different ways.”
The recent crack in 2018 is being debated amng the scientific cmmunity, as sme believe it is shwing the separatin in real time, while thers believe such prgressin is impssible. One resident named Eliud claimed he saw the crack run thrugh his hme. And he culd nly cllect sme f his belngings befre his huse cllapsed. Damages were seen n a busy rad in Kenya.
8. What is the ptential utcme if the rifting cntinues at its current pace?
A. Immediate frmatin f a large cean.B. Rapid frmatin f new muntain ranges.
C. Cmplete clsure f the Eastern African Rift.D. Creatin f an cean equivalent t the Red Sea.
9. What cntributes t the crack f Eastern African Rift System?
A. The stretches f the Gulf f Aden.B. The eruptin f super-heated rck.
C. The crashes f mving tectnic plates.D. The split f weaker part f Earth’ scre.
10. Why des Sarah mentin the Silly Putty in paragraph 4?
A. T stress the flexibility f cntinents mre.B. T better intrduce the behavirs f players.
C. T further analyze the frmatin f cntinents.D. T vividly explain hw rifting cntinent changes.
11. What might be the attitude f the scientists tward the real -time rifting?
A. Indifferent.B. Negative.C. Cntradictry.D. Optimistic.
D
Have yu ever wrried that yu might smell bad? Well, yu d have a smell, but nt in the way yu think. The human bdy releases hundreds f chemical cmpunds int the air every day, and these cmpunds reveal much mre than just ur health habits; they can als indicate ur health situatins.
In 1971, chemist Linus Pauling identified 250 different gaseus chemicals in ur breath, knwn as VOCs. These VOCs riginate frm the bdy’s metablic (新陈代谢) prcesses and are excreted (排泄) thrugh skin glands. While sweat cntributes t these VOCs, it nly accunts fr a small prtin f them.
VOCs can reveal a lt abut ur health. Fr example, a sweet-smelling breath culd be a sign f diabetes. Besides breath, VOCs are als released frm ur skin, and feces (粪便). A ntable case invlved Jy Milne, wh nticed a change in her husband’s scent 12 years befre he was diagnsed with Parkinsn’s disease. Knwn as “the wman wh can smell Parkinsn’s,” Jy has been using her keen sense f smell t help scientists develp a simple swab test t diagnse the illnesses.
Animals with advanced sense f smell, like dgs, have demnstrated they can detect varius types f cancer in humans. Althugh these scents are ften undetectable t the human nse, they prvide evidence that ur bdies emit different scents when smething is wrng.
The relatinship between VOCs, and ur health is still being studied. Prfessr Mrin and her team are investigating whether skin VOC signatures can reveal persnal attributes. They have already shwn that they can predict a persn’s age within a few years based n their skin VOC prfile.
In ne interview, Prfessr Mrin stated, “We are at a relatively early stage in this research area, but we have already distinguished males frm females based n the acidity f skin VOCs. We believe skin VOCs can reveal aspects f wh we are, such as nutritin, health and stress. These signatures likely cntain markers that can be used t diagnse disease.”
S, wh knws—maybe ne day we will be able t detect diseases simply by breathing int a device.
12. What d we learn abut the VOCs accrding t the passage?
A. The VOCs are primarily cmpsed f sweat.
B. Our bdy’s metablic prcesses are the surce f VOCs.
C. Skin VOCs cannt reveal ur age and gender up t nw.
D. VOCs nly released frm ur skin indicate health status.
13. Why des the authr mentin animals like dgs in paragraph 4?
A. T argue we shuld rely mre n animals.
B. T shw the superir intelligence f animals.
C. T highlight VOCs’ ptential as diagnstic markers.
D. T illustrate they have the capability t detect cancers.
14. What future technlgy might arise frm the understanding f VOCs?
A. Devices that can breathe disease-causing VOCs.
B. Equipment that can analyze VOCs t diagnse diseases.
C. Persnalized perfumes that can mask disease-related VOCs.
D Advanced facilities that can change VOC t imprve health.
15. Which can be a suitable title fr the passage?
A. The Rle f Sweat in Human Health.B. Linus Pauling’s Cntributins t VOCS.
C. Smell f Bdy Cntributing t Diseases.D. Detecting Diseases thrugh Bdy Scents.
