Complete the following passage with the words or phrases in the box. Each can only be used once （将下列单词或词组填入空格。每空格限填一词，每词只能填一次）
A．equally B．including C． lively D．pick up E. process
On 14 June, Euro 2024, the men’s European Football Championship, kicked of in Germany. Many eyes were on the strikers (前锋) who scored the goals. However, the goalkeepers were 16 important. Goalkeepers are unique in football. They are the only players who are allowed to 17 the ball with their hands, but the differences don’t end there. New research has found that goalkeepers actually see the world differently from everyone else.
The study got together a group of 60 people, 18 goalkeepers, outfield players and non-footballers. They then tested how quickly these people were able to tell sounds and flashes apart. They found that the goalkeepers’ brains were able to put together and 19 signal (信号) from different senses far quicker than others.
A．moments B．movements C． natural D．scientific E. view
The study also found that the goalkeepers were better at being able to tell where different pieces of information were coming from, This is helpful for goalkeepers, because their 20 is often blocked by other players when they need to dive for the ball without actually being able to see it. In these situations, their 21 are based on the sound of the ball being struck.
It’s unclear whether this ability is a result of training, or whether it’s a 22 ability these people are born with. Further research on goalkeeper training is needed to come up with an answer to this question. However, there is 23 evidence (证据) for the idea that goalkeepers have special abilities. The study only focused on male players. More research is needed into female goalkeepers and also into other positions to test whether strikers and midfielders have similar differences in how they deal with information.
【答案】16．A 17．D 18．B 19．E 20．E 21．B 22．C 23．D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了虽然前锋进球备受关注，但守门员同样重要且有独特之处。接着介绍了一项关于守门员的研究，阐述了研究的对象、测试内容及发现，最后指出目前对于守门员特殊能力来源尚不明确，还需进一步研究，且研究范围有待拓展到女性守门员及其他场上位置球员。
16．句意：然而，守门员同样重要。此处需要用副词修饰“important”，表达程度。根据前文“Many eyes were on the strikers (前锋) who scored the goals.”可知，前锋受关注。而后用“However”转折，强调守门员同样重要，故选A。
17．句意：他们是唯一被允许用手触球的球员，但不同之处还不止于此。be allowed to do sth.被允许做某事，固定搭配；结合题干可知，此处应填动词原形。结合语境可知，守门员是唯一能用手怎样球的球员，这里应该是表达 “触碰；拿”。故选D。
18．句意：这项研究召集了60人，其中包括守门员、场上其他位置的球员以及非足球运动员。从后文提到的不同类型的人“goalkeepers, outfield players and non-footballers.”可知，是在列举参与研究的人员构成。故选B。
19．句意：他们发现守门员的大脑能够将来自不同感官的信号整合起来并进行处理，而且速度比其他人快得多。根据前文“They then tested how quickly these people were able to tell sounds and flashes apart.”可知，他们测试了这些人区分声音和闪光的速度有多快。此处提到大脑对信号的处理，这里应该是表达守门员大脑能整合并且“处理”信号。故选E。
20．句意：这对守门员很有帮助，因为当他们需要扑球而实际上看不到球的时候，他们的视线常常会被其他球员挡住。根据后面“is often blocked by other players when they need to dive for the ball without actually being able to see it.”可知，当他们需要扑球却看不到球时，常常被其他球员挡住。故此处说的是他们的“视线；视野”被挡住。故选E。
21．句意：在这种情况下，他们的动作依据的是球被击打的声音。根据“when they need to dive for the ball without actually being able to see it.”可知，当他们需要扑球时实际上看不到球。故需要依据声音扑球，这里说的是他们的“动作”是基于球被击打的声音。故选B。
22．句意：目前尚不清楚这种能力是训练的结果，还是这些人天生就具备的一种天赋能力。根据后文“these people are born with”可知，人们天生就有的能力。所以这里应该是说不清楚是训练所致还是一种“天生的”能力。故选C。
23．句意：不过，已有科学证据表明守门员具备特殊能力。根据“However”转折以及后面提到已有证据表明守门员有特殊能力，可知这里需要一个形容词修饰evidence，“科学的”证据比较合理。故选D。

Drinking a cup of milk tea with friends That’s “city”. Visiting the Great Wall in China Not “city”. Riding a bike down Shanghai’s Anfu Road Quite “city”.
If you don’t get it, let me 32 it to you. “City bu city ” is a hot topic taking Chinese social media by storm. You can use it to describe whether someone, or something is urban (都市的) and modern or not.
“City bu city ” was first used by Shanghai-based American blogger Paul Mike Ashton. His name on the Internet is “Bao Bao Xiong”. He likes sharing travel 33 in China on Douyin and Xiaohongshu. Ashton became popular after he shared a video of him asking his sister “City bu city ” on the Great Wall.
The word “city” itself has now taken on a new meaning as an adjective (形容词). Ashton himself says that it describes something that happens in the city, but it can also be “something that gives you a great love for life”.
In recent years, 34 foreign tourists like Ashton have been sharing their experiences of visiting China online. Topics about travel in China are becoming more and more 35 . Now people around the world can learn more about different fields of modern Chinese society and Chinese way of life. And all of these are shown in a more emotional (感性的), friendly and natural way.

38 , I like to use newspaper articles and podcast (播客) scripts (广播稿) to learn English after school. As I read, I underline words and phrases that seem useful. But how do I know I’ve collected “enough” useful words and expressions I look at what I’ve underlined and ask myself if I can retell the main ideas from the material with them. If so, then I know I’ve done a good job.
After that, I coy those words and phrases into my notebook. Now comes the final and most important step: reviewing everything you’ve written down. As you 39 your list, think about how the main ideas in the material are connected. This may sound boring, but if you don’t review your notes, those useful words and phrases will soon slip out of your mind. Then, if you aren’t able to use them in everyday conversation or writing, what’s the point
This trick has worked wonders for me. I hope it’ll do the same for you on your journey to memorizing as many words as you need!
