M: What a history!
W: As you can see, there are several galleries. The gallery on your left is called “World View”. It changes periodically. It’s now about African culture. It’ll look at Asia next year.
M: Amazing!
W: Then we come to another popular gallery “Life on Earth”. It’s about the history of the planet we live on. There are expert talks every weekend. Next to this gallery is an interactive exhibit. It’s called “Moving Arena". It’s actually a giant map of the city that you can walk on. This is the main reason why the museum is so popular.

【原文】W: Blayne, when did you start skateboarding
M: I got my first skateboard at eight. I wanted to join the skateboard club at my local park, but you had to be at least 12. My cousin was good at doing jumps, but he was not interested in teaching kids like me. So I watched lots of skateboarding videos and practised all the moves.
W: Where is the best place for skateboarding
M: Well, for freestyle-boarding, which doesn’t need a skate park, any smooth flat ground, like a basketball court or a square, will do. The place I most often go to is the path that goes along the beach.
W: Then what do you like to do to stay fit
M: I used to cycle or jog twice a week. That wasn’t keeping me fit enough, though. Now I’ve joined
a gym to spend time swimming.
W: Do you have any plans for the future
M: I’ll miss a big competition as I’m recovering from an ankle injury. I’ve been asked to advertise a new skateboard, but that’ll have to wait until I get back from the USA. First, I’m going there to see skateboard camps for children.

【答案】17. A 18. C 19. B 20. A
【解析】
【原文】As a little girl, I dreamt of getting into filming. I worked in a shop just after graduation. Then a friend got me a temporary job for a company doing films. One day, I saw a post for a person to be a runner working for a TV program. I thought that was the perfect opportunity. I was delighted when I got it. Now I’ve been a director for about twelve years. I’ve done a number of different programs, like Bargain Hunt and Home Cooking, but at the moment I’m working on a nature program called Country File. The hardest part of the job is getting the music together. When you find a piece of music that goes with the film then you create the right atmosphere and it totally brings the film alive. There’s so much variety in my job and I’m always learning about new things. Last year, I did a writing course. It really made sense to me. Not long ago, I did a film about some rare birds and we had to use new technology to film at night. I prefer to learn from experience by trying something out. I try new things to discover my potential, and try to adjust myself to the social environment and improve myself step by step.

Look people in the eye. Smile. Shake hands. Sit up tall. Speak clearly and confidently. That’s the last- minute advice professor Paul Calhoun gives a handful of college students before they head off for a series of job interviews. The Skidmore College seniors he’s talking to are dressed in suits and shirts , or dresses and heels.
There isn’t an actual job on the other end of these interviews, just a satisfactory / unsatisfactory grade from a class called Presenting the Brand Called Me at this college in New York. Calhoun created the popular course 10 years ago. He’d spent more than three decades working in the banking industry, where he saw the importance of presentation skills :“A lot of it is acting .”
When he came to Skidmore as a business professor, he noticed a lot of students struggling with public speaking. He got theater professors to help him shape what eventually became this class , in order to give business majors the training analogous to what the theater department gives to actors .
Over the 13 weeks, there’s some role - playing with improv (即兴创作)--- “Talk for a minute about anything ----go !“ There are dance classes , and many guest speakers who talk about cover letters , resumes (简历) and personal branding . By the end of the course , students leave with a polished “ STAR ” story --- the short story about themselves and their abilities that’s designed to help land them a job . “ People don’t remember when you tell them you’re good at something,”Calhoun explains .“They remember when you tell them a story that proves you ‘ re good at something.” Dante Delemos is a junior business major. In his interviews , he tells a story about winning the election for class president . And it works . Delemos is spending the summer working part- time in finance .
In addition, the class also created professional-sounding email addresses for students. Say goodbye to “Bubblegum123.”“ You can’t email your future boss with some really odd email name,”explains Tytianna McClenningham , a recent graduate. And they’re email manners , too .I didn’t even think it was important to use a subject in an email ,” McClenningham says .“But now I know .”
24. What is described in the first paragraph
A. An activity at a job fair .
B. A college entrance interview .
C. A scene in a college class .
D. A college graduation ceremony .
25. What does the underlined word ” analogous “ in paragraph 3 mean
A. Similar . B. Superior . C. Available . D. Important .
26. What does Calhoun say about telling stories in interviews
A. It can help interviewees relax .
B. It will impress interviewers .
C. It can meet the requirements of interviewers .
D. It will show interviewees’ communication skills .
27. How does McClenningham feel about the class
A. It is boring . B. It is practical .

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章通过保罗·卡尔霍恩教授在一些大学生去参加一系列工作面试之前给出的最后建议的课程，说明展示自己的重要性。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Look people in the eye. Smile. Shake hands. Sit up tall. Speak clearly and confidently. That’s the last- minute advice professor Paul Calhoun gives a handful of college students before they head off for a series of job interviews. The Skidmore College seniors he’s talking to are dressed in suits and shirts , or dresses and heels.”（看着别人的眼睛。笑一个。握个手。坐直了。清晰自信地说。这是保罗·卡尔霍恩教授在一些大学生去参加一系列工作面试之前给出的最后建议。与他交谈的斯基德莫尔学院高年级学生，要么穿西装衬衫，要么穿裙子和高跟鞋。）可知，这是保罗·卡尔霍恩教授在一些大学生去参加一系列工作面试之前给出的最后建议。因而可推知，这应该是发生在一个大学课堂上的场景。故选C。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前内容“When he came to Skidmore as a business professor, he noticed a lot of students struggling with public speaking. He got theater professors to help him shape what eventually became this class”（当他作为一名商学教授来到斯基德莫尔时，他注意到许多学生在公共演讲上遇到了困难。他得到了戏剧教授的帮助，最终形成了这门课）可推知，他这样做是为了给商科学生提供类似于戏剧系给演员的培训，因而划线词此处的含义为“类似的，相似的”之意，故选A。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中““People don’t remember when you tell them you’re good at something,”Calhoun explains .“They remember when you tell them a story that proves you ‘ re good at something.”（人们不会记得你告诉他们你擅长什么,”卡尔霍恩解释说。“当你给他们讲一个能证明你擅长某事的故事时，他们会记得。）可知，当你讲故事的时候，会给人们深刻的印象，选项B符合题意，故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“explains Tytianna McClenningham , a recent graduate. And they’re email manners , too .I didn’t even think it was important to use a subject in an email ,” McClenningham says .“But now I know .””（刚毕业的 Tytianna McClenningham 解释道。它们也是电子邮件礼仪。我甚至认为在电子邮件中不使用主题是重要的,”麦克莱宁汉姆说。“但现在我知道了”）可知，McClenningham觉得这个课程很实用。故选B。
C
For centuries, people in the sunny Mediterranean (地中海) would get up after long, relaxing meals and take a walk, often to the town square to see neighbors and socialize. Walking is so much a part of the lifestyle that it is seen as the most important part of the super-healthy Mediterranean diet.
Studies have found that it may be one of the reasons the Mediterranean diet can reduce the risk for some diseases like diabetes, high cholesterol, heart disease, stroke and some cancers — all the while strengthening bones, improving brain health, preventing dementia(痴呆) and helping with healthy weight loss.
Now you can add another reason to take a post-meal walk — it may lower your blood sugar. That trip doesn’t need to take up a huge amount of your time either: Walking as little as two to five minutes after a meal can do, according to a 2022 study in the journal Sports Medicine.
Standing after a meal can help, too, but not as much as putting one foot in front of the other, said study coauthor Aidan Buffey, a doctoral student in sport sciences department at the University of Limerick in Ireland.
“Standing on and off throughout the day and after meals reduced blood sugar on average by 9.51% compared to long hours of sitting. However, light-walking throughout the day saw a greater reduction of blood sugar by an average of 17.01% compared to long hours of sitting,” Buffey said.
“This suggests that breaking long hours of sitting with standing and light-walking throughout the day is good for blood sugar levels. Standing is good, but walking is better,” he added.
28. What is the purpose of Paragraph 1
A. To introduce a lifestyle. B. To warn the readers.
C. To lead in the topic. D. To prove an opinion.
29. What benefits can the Mediterranean diet bring to people EXCEPT
A. Losing appropriate weight B. Making bones stronger
C. Preventing the risk for diseases D. Improving brain health
30. How did Aidan Buffey draw his conclusion
A. By doing surveys (调查). B. By comparing the data(数据).
C. By doing experiment. D. By referring to other studies.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. Walking can help lower blood sugar B. There are reasons to stick to walking
C. Mediterranean diet is super healthy D. Long hours of sitting after meal is a bad habit
【答案】28. C 29. C 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要说明了研究表明饭后散步有助于稳定血糖，且介绍了饭后散步的好处以及相关研究。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“For centuries, people in the sunny Mediterranean (地中海) would get up after long, relaxing meals and take a walk, often to the town square to see neighbors and socialize. Walking is so much a part of the lifestyle that it is seen as the most important part of the super-healthy Mediterranean diet.(几个世纪以来，生活在阳光明媚的地中海地区的人们会在吃完长时间放松的晚餐后起床散步，经常到城镇广场去看望邻居和社交。步行是生活方式的重要组成部分，被视为超级健康的地中海饮食中最重要的部分)”可推知，第一段以地中海地区的人的生活方式为例，引出“饭后散步的好处”的这个话题。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Studies have found that it may be one of the reasons the Mediterranean diet can reduce the risk for some diseases like diabetes, high cholesterol, heart disease, stroke and some cancers — all the while strengthening bones, improving brain health, preventing dementia(痴呆) and helping with healthy weight loss.(研究发现，这可能是地中海饮食可以降低患糖尿病、高胆固醇、心脏病、中风和某些癌症等疾病风险的原因之一，同时还能增强骨骼、改善大脑健康、预防痴呆和帮助健康减肥)”可知，A项、B项和D项都有所提及， C项“杜绝患病风险”没有提到，故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段““Standing on and off throughout the day and after meals reduced blood sugar on average by 9.51% compared to long hours of sitting. However, light-walking throughout the day saw a greater reduction of blood sugar by an average of 17.01% compared to long hours of sitting,” Buffey said.(Buffey说：“与长时间坐着相比，整天站着或饭后站着平均能降低9.51%的血糖。然而，与长时间坐着相比，一天中轻走的血糖平均降低了17.01%。”)”可知，Aidan Buffey是通过将久坐不动的人的血糖水平与偶尔站立并饭后散步的人的血糖水平的数据进行对比得出结论的。故选B。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Now you can add another reason to take a post-meal walk — it may lower your blood sugar.(现在你又多了一个饭后散步的理由——它可以降低你的血糖)”结合本文主要讲的是研究表明饭后散步有助于稳定血糖，且介绍了饭后散步的好处以及相关研究。A选项“Walking can help lower blood sugar (散步有助于降低血糖)”最符合文章标题。故选A。
D
“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,” said David Belle, the founder of parkour.
Do you love running It is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring. But what if making your morning jog a creative one Like jumping from walls and over gaps, and ground rolls Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way. It is just because of Bond’s wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.
Yes that’s parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. Parkour is considered an extreme sport. As its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.
Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that.
Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life, to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover said, “I love parkour because its philosophy has become my life, my way to do everything.”
Another philosophy we’ve learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence.
32. Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of________.
A. its founder, David Belle B. the film, Casino Royale
C. its risks and tricks D. the varieties of participants
33. The underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________ ”.
A. streets B. fences C. barriers D. roofs
34. Which of the following is true of parkour
A. It challenges human abilities. B. It is a good but boring sport.
C. It needs special training. D. It is a team sport.
35. Which of the following is the philosophy of parkour
A. Sports and extremes. B. Excitement and popularity.
C. Dreams and success. D. Determination and freedom.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. D

You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life, to reach the destination successfully. (克服赛道上和生活中的所有障碍是跑酷运动哲学的一部分。这和生活一样。你必须确定你的目的地，直走，像跑酷一样跳过所有的障碍，永远不要在生活中从它们后退，成功地到达目的地)”以及最后一段中“Another philosophy we’ve learnt from parkour is freedom. (我们从跑酷运动中学到的另一个理念是自由)”可知，跑酷的哲学是决心和自由。故选D。

【37题详解】
根据前文“Your senior year is going to be busy with schoolwork, volunteering, and college applications.(你的高三将忙于学业、志愿活动和大学申请)”可知，你的高三有许多事情要做，因此后文应该指出因为这些事情，所以不能拖延。B选项“That is why you cannot procrastinate during this time(这就是为什么你不能在这段时间拖延)”承接前文，句中的that指代的schoolwork, volunteering, and college applications，即由于学业、志愿活动和大学申请的原因，这段时间不能拖延。故选B。

(晚上睡个好觉，吃好食物，锻炼身体可以帮助你的身体保持健康，这对你整体有益，让你的日子更轻松)”可知，此处是针对高三时期的身体健康问题如何处理，后文应该提及对于高三时期的精神健康问题应该如何处理。C选项“As for your mental health, make sure you take time to relax(至于你的心理健康，确保你花时间放松)”指出，精神健康问题需要花时间来放松。后文“You can read a book, take a warm bath, or talk to someone; just do something that will calm you down.( 你可以读一本书，洗个热水澡，或者和别人聊天;做一些能让你冷静下来的事情)”提出具体精神放松的方法，C选项符合语境。故选C。
【40题详解】
根据后文“While you should be careful about your schoolwork and habits, remember that this is your last year of high school, so enjoy it. Give yourself some time for yourself.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国的宣纸的历史以及制作程序。
【56题详解】
考查时态。句意：宣纸以其优良的品质，被誉为“千古之纸”。表示“被称为……”短语为be known as，陈述事实用一般现在时，主语为Xuan paper，谓语用单数。故填is known。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：“宣纸”一词最早出现在唐代（618-907）学者张彦元所著的《历代名画记》中，他在书中将宣纸描述为书画的理想载体。分析句子结构可知，非谓语动词write与逻辑主语book构成被动关系，故用过去分词作定语。故填written。
【58题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：“宣纸”一词最早出现在唐代（618-907）学者张彦元所著的《历代名画记》中，他在书中将宣纸描述为书画的理想载体。此处为介词+关系代词结构非限制性定语从句，先行词为“On Famous Paintings through the Ages”指物，关系词替代先行词作介词in的宾语，故用关系代词which。故填which。
【59题详解】
考查冠词。句意：来自中国东部安徽省靖县的手工宣纸，因其卓越的品质在这一时期被列为献给朝廷的礼物。gift此处为泛指，且是发音以辅音音素开头的单词，用不定冠词a。故填a。
【60题详解】
考查副词。句意：制作宣纸的传统工艺要求极高。修饰后文形容词demanding应用副词extremely作状语，故填extremely。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意：檀香树皮是一种原产于中国南方的植物，它与稻草一起经过108道工序，经过三年的时间，才能变成一捆精美的宣纸。短语transform into表示“变成”。故填into。
【62题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：整个过程是如此复杂，即使是最熟练的工匠也只能掌握有限的步骤。step为可数名词，根据上文a number of (许多)可知为复数。故填steps。
【63题详解】
考查名词。句意：水墨的流动，受水的引导和阻力，决定了中国艺术的输出，宣纸以其出色的发挥水墨的能力而出类拔萃。作介词的宾语，应用名词ability。故填ability。
【64题详解】
考查时态。句意：宣纸几千年来一直伴随着中国文人的激情笔触。根据后文for thousands of years可知，谓语动词accompany为现在完成时，主语为Xuan paper，助动词用has。故填has accompanied。
【65题详解】
考查形容词。句意：最让人印象深刻的是它的耐久性，保存了许多中国古代的珍贵作品。修饰名词works应用形容词valuable，作定语，表示“珍贵的”；或用形容词invaluable表示“极宝贵的”，作定语。故填valuable/invaluable。

“What’s that squeaky noise ” Meg asked her eight-year-old daughter, Haley. She looked down at the girl’s shoes and noticed her sneakers’ soles had been torn open. Meg and Haley were on their way home from school, and it had just stopped raining. Water on the road had leaked into Haley’s damaged shoes, making a squishy noise.
Meg immediately took her daughter to a shoe store to buy her a new pair of sneakers. She had some money for groceries but thought getting Haley a new pair of shoes was more important. “How about these ” asked Haley, who was checking shoes in the section only for boys. “Mama, I want these limited-edition sneakers. Buddy loves a TV show and always tells me how he wishes to wear such shoes.”
Meg frowned. Not only did she not have money to afford two pairs of shoes, but she wondered why Haley was too interested in getting her classmate Buddy a new pair. Sensing her mother’s hesitation, Haley continued, “Buddy is from a very poor family, mama. Poorer than us. His shoes are torn and look miserable. Everybody laughs at him. Please, can we buy these shoes for him You can buy mine later.”
Meg thought for a while and decided it would be best if she bought her daughter shoes for now. “You will fall sick if you keep wearing your wet, torn shoes. I’m sorry, honey, but you need a new pair.” Haley sighed heavily and agreed. She was not excited to see the new pair of sneakers her mom had bought for her.
As Meg and Haley left, Bob, the shoe store owner who knew Meg well, walked to the entrance and sighed. He had overheard everything and knew what it was like to live in poverty. He wanted to help Haley fulfill her mission of helping Buddy but didn’t know how. Moreover, the pair of shoes Haley wanted to get for Buddy was a limited-edition collection, which had been ordered by someone else. He could not simply give them away.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, Bob remembered something and climbed downstairs where old shoes were stored.

The next morning, Haley was shocked to find a shoe box lying outside her house.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible version1:
Suddenly, Bob remembered something and climbed downstairs where old shoes were stored. Wriggling his way through the sections where old limited-edition shoes were stocked, he searched high and low and finally rested his eyes on the shoe box at the top of the shelf. There it was; the pair bore much resemblance to what Buddy desired but were an older version. He gingerly brought it down and dusted the ash off. Then he contacted Haley’s mother and explained his motive. “I want to surprise the girl. Is that OK if I drop off the shoes before six tomorrow morning ” “Sure. Thanks, Mr. White. I’m glad you could help!” Meg said gratefully.
The next morning, Haley was shocked to find a shoe box lying outside her house. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and caught sight of the note stuck on the box. It read, “Hope Buddy loves them!” Curious to know what was inside, Haley hurriedly opened the box and stood stunned the next minute. Though a bit different, the shoes were what would make Buddy exhilarated. Cradling the shoes in her arms, she cried in joy. Meg, who had been hidden behind the door to eye her daughter’s reaction, shed tears, too. She was convinced that something else illuminated her that day — two golden hearts.

Look people in the eye. Smile. Shake hands. Sit up tall. Speak clearly and confidently. That’s the last- minute advice professor Paul Calhoun gives a handful of college students before they head off for a series of job interviews. The Skidmore College seniors he’s talking to are dressed in suits and shirts , or dresses and heels.
There isn’t an actual job on the other end of these interviews, just a satisfactory / unsatisfactory grade from a class called Presenting the Brand Called Me at this college in New York. Calhoun created the popular course 10 years ago. He’d spent more than three decades working in the banking industry, where he saw the importance of presentation skills :“A lot of it is acting .”
When he came to Skidmore as a business professor he noticed a lot of students struggling with public speaking. He got theater professors to help him shape what eventually became this class , in order to give business majors the training analogous to what the theater department gives to actors .
Over the 13 weeks there’s some role - playing with improv (即兴创作)--- “Talk for a minute about anything ----go !“ There are dance classes , and many guest speakers who talk about cover letters , resumes (简历) and personal branding . By the end of the course , students leave with a polished “ STAR ” story --- the short story about themselves and their abilities that’s designed to help land them a job . “ People don’t remember when you tell them you’re good at something,”Calhoun explains .“They remember when you tell them a story that proves you ‘ re good at something.” Dante Delemos is a junior business major. In his interviews , he tells a story about winning the election for class president . And it works . Delemos is spending the summer working part- time in finance .
In addition, the class also created professional-sounding email addresses for students. Say goodbye to “Bubblegum123.”“ You can’t email your future boss with some really odd email name,”explains Tytianna McClenningham , a recent graduate. And they’re email manners , too .I didn’t even think it was important to use a subject in an email ,” McClenningham says .“But now I know .”

For centuries, people in the sunny Mediterranean (地中海) would get up after long, relaxing meals and take a walk, often to the town square to see neighbors and socialize. Walking is so much a part of the lifestyle that it is seen as the most important part of the super-healthy Mediterranean diet.
Studies have found that it may be one of the reasons the Mediterranean diet can reduce the risk for some diseases like diabetes, high cholesterol, heart disease, stroke and some cancers — all the while strengthening bones, improving brain health, preventing dementia(痴呆) and helping with healthy weight loss.
Now you can add another reason to take a post-meal walk — it may lower your blood sugar. That trip doesn’t need to take up a huge amount of your time either: Walking as little as two to five minutes after a meal can do, according to a 2022 study in the journal Sports Medicine.
Standing after a meal can help, too, but not as much as putting one foot in front of the other, said study coauthor Aidan Buffey, a doctoral student in sport sciences department at the University of Limerick in Ireland.
“Standing on and off throughout the day and after meals reduced blood sugar on average by 9.51% compared to long hours of sitting. However, light-walking throughout the day saw a greater reduction of blood sugar by an average of 17.01% compared to long hours of sitting,” Buffey said.
“This suggests that breaking long hours of sitting with standing and light-walking throughout the day is good for blood sugar levels. Standing is good, but walking is better,” he added.
28. What is the purpose of Paragraph 1
A. To introduce a lifestyle. B. To warn the readers.
C. To lead in the topic. D. To prove an opinion.
29. What benefits can the Mediterranean diet bring to people EXCEPT
A. Losing appropriate weight B. Making bones stronger
C. Preventing the risk for diseases D. Improving brain health
30. How did Aidan Buffey draw his conclusion
A. By doing surveys (调查). B. By comparing the data(数据).
C. By doing experiment. D. By referring to other studies.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. Walking can help lower blood sugar B. There are reasons to stick to walking
C. Mediterranean diet is super healthy D. Long hours of sitting after meal is a bad habit
D
“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,” said David Belle, the founder of parkour.
Do you love running It is a good exercise, yet many people find it boring. But what if making your morning jog a creative one Like jumping from walls and over gaps, and ground rolls Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way. It is just because of Bond’s wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.
Yes, that’s parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body. Parkour is considered an extreme sport. As its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.
Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that.
Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life, to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover said, “I love parkour because its philosophy has become my life, my way to do everything.”
Another philosophy we’ve learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence.
32. Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of________.
A. its founder, David Belle B. the film, Casino Royale
C. its risks and tricks D. the varieties of participants
33. The underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________ ”.
A. streets B. fences C. barriers D. roofs
34. Which of the following is true of parkour

C. It needs special training. D. It is a team sport.
35. Which of the following is the philosophy of parkour

“What’s that squeaky noise ” Meg asked her eight-year-old daughter Haley. She looked down at the girl’s shoes and noticed her sneakers’ soles had been torn open. Meg and Haley were on their way home from school, and it had just stopped raining. Water on the road had leaked into Haley’s damaged shoes, making a squishy noise.
Meg immediately took her daughter to a shoe store to buy her a new pair of sneakers. She had some money for groceries but thought getting Haley a new pair of shoes was more important. “How about these ” asked Haley, who was checking shoes in the section only for boys. “Mama, I want these limited-edition sneakers. Buddy loves a TV show and always tells me how he wishes to wear such shoes.”
Meg frowned. Not only did she not have money to afford two pairs of shoes, but she wondered why Haley was too interested in getting her classmate Buddy a new pair. Sensing her mother’s hesitation, Haley continued, “Buddy is from a very poor family, mama. Poorer than us. His shoes are torn and look miserable. Everybody laughs at him. Please, can we buy these shoes for him You can buy mine later.”
Meg thought for a while and decided it would be best if she bought her daughter shoes for now. “You will fall sick if you keep wearing your wet, torn shoes. I’m sorry, honey, but you need a new pair.” Haley sighed heavily and agreed. She was not excited to see the new pair of sneakers her mom had bought for her.
As Meg and Haley left, Bob, the shoe store owner who knew Meg well, walked to the entrance and sighed. He had overheard everything and knew what it was like to live in poverty. He wanted to help Haley fulfill her mission of helping Buddy but didn’t know how. Moreover, the pair of shoes Haley wanted to get for Buddy was a limited-edition collection, which had been ordered by someone else. He could not simply give them away.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, Bob remembered something and climbed downstairs where old shoes were stored.
