Most people who ran the marathon last month spent days before resting up and days after recovering. But not Jacky Hunt-Broersma. In total, she ran 104 marathons in 104 days. If it’s confirmed by Guinness World Records, that would be a new world record. And she did it all with one leg and a prosthesis (假肢).
“Someone able-bodied had done it previously. I wanted to see if I could do it on a prosthetic leg and see what would happen,” she said. “I thought it would be a great way to inspire others to push their limits because I truly believe that we’re stronger than what we think. And I’ve been so pleasantly surprised that my body is held up, everything is held up and I’ve made it to 104.”
She actually did not pick up the sport until after she lost the lower part of her left leg in 2001 to a type of cancer called Ewing sarcoma. Runners using a prosthetic leg can’t use a regular one. They need a running blade (刀锋式跑步义肢). Hunt-Broersma has two, but she was only able to run with one because of the swelling she experienced in her left leg that made it impossible to connect to the other blade. But even with the pain that occurred, she has been able to put up with it and continue.
Altogether, Hunt-Broersma ran over 4,385 kilometers. During that time, she has had a lot of time to think and has learned a few things about herself. “It has taught me how strong one can be and how important absolute determination is. If you’re mentally strong, you can do anything,” she said. “And our bodies are just amazing...This whole journey was impressive and super hard, but it’s taught me how strong I can be as a person and how far I can push myself.”
24. Why did Hunt-Broersma decide to run marathons
A.She wanted to set a new record.
B.She intended to challenge herself.
C.She was driven by her interest.
D.She was inspired by people like her.
25. What difficulty did Hunt-Broersma meet with
A.She didn’t get professional training.
B.She found it hard to keep her balance.
C.She suffered discomfort in her left leg.
D.She couldn’t use regular running blades.
26. What message does the author express through the story
A.Rome wasn’t built in a day.
B.Time works wonders.
C.A good beginning is half the battle.
D.Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
27. What may be the author’s attitude towards Hunt-Broersma
A.Annoyed. B.Concerned. C.Admiring. D.Humorous.
C
Tiny, black-capped chickadees (北美山雀) have big memories. They store food in hundreds to thousands of different locations in the wild — and then come back to these places when other food sources are low.
Scientists have known that chickadees have incredible memory skills. That memory can be a matter of life or death for these birds when there are no enough food resources in colder months.
Some researchers thought that neurons called place cells (位置细胞) would explain these birds’ ability to remember where their food is stored. These cells are known to include information about where things are in space. But recently,Selmaan Chettih and his team found that each time a chickadee hides a seed (种子) in a specific location, a unique brain pattern appears — separate from place cells.
To observe this, Chettih and his team created special areas with lots of feeders filled with sunflower seeds. They put small flaps (片状下垂物) where birds could hide seeds.
The scientists tracked the activity in their brains. Each time a bird hid a seed under a flap, researchers saw a brief unique brain pattern appear—what they called the barcode. Different patterns appeared even if the birds hid many seeds in the same location. When the birds revisited these sites and retrieved the hidden seeds, the same barcode-like pattern appeared again, as though all the information about each location and seed were related to a unique brain pattern.
The researchers compared these memories to episodic memories in humans, which are memories of specific events or personal experiences. They’re important to how humans connect time, people, places and sensory information together.
Chettih says that this seed-hiding behavior has a clear pattern of activity, which may help researchers build a structure for how the brain creates and stores memories.
28. Why are memory skills necessary for chickadees
A.Memory skills can help them survive in colder months.
B.Memory skills show their intelligence and learning abilities.
C.They need memory skills to identify different types of food.
D.They use memory skills to avoid being attacked by other animals.
29. What did Chettih and his team find
A.Chickadees’ memories were controlled by place cells.
B.Chickadees preferred hiding sunflower seeds.
C.Unique brain patterns appeared when chickadees hid seeds.
D.Chickadees often hid many seeds in the same location.
30. What does the underlined word “retrieved” mean in paragraph 5
A.Repaired. B.Regained. C.Decorated. D.Designed.
31. What is the purpose of the text
A.To introduce a study on chickadees’ memory.
B.To present a detailed description of chickadees.
C.To compare chickadees and human memory skills.
D.To provide readers with a way to improve memory skills.
D
Like all big cities, Paris has a traffic problem: lots of cars, lots of traffic jams and lots of pollution from exhaust fumes (废气). So the city began a scheme (计划) to improve the situation.
Under the Velib project ('Velib' comes from vélo liberté, or 'bicycle freedom') people can take a bicycle, use it for as long as they want, and then leave it at the same or another bicycle station. The first half-hour on the bike is free, but if you don't return it after 30 minutes, you have to pay. But it's only ?1 a day or ?29 a year! The bicycles are heavy (25 kg), and they are all grey and have baskets. There are about 20,000 of them in the city, and around 1,450 bicycle stations. So there are a lot more Velib stations than the 298 subway stations!
Paris is not the first city to have a project like this. But not everybody thinks it's a great idea. One Parisian said, "These bicycles are only for short journeys. If people want to travel across the city, they won't use a bicycle — they'll still use their cars."
A city spokesman said, "The bicycle project won't solve all our traffic problems, of course. But it might help reduce air pollution. Traffic, together with factory fumes, is a big problem. There aren't any simple answers to traffic problems and pollution in cities. But unless we do something now, there will be more traffic jams and temperatures will continue to rise, so the problems in our environment will get worse. The bikes might help people to lead a healthier life, too."
32. What can we learn about the Velib scheme
A.Its bikes have no baskets.
B.Its bikes are light and colorful.
C.It aims to make traveling easier.
D.It owns more stations than the subway.
33. If you use a Velib for 1 hour, you should pay _______.
A.?1 B.?30 C.?29 D.no money
34. Why do some people disagree with the Velib scheme
A.The cost is rather high.
B.It's hard to find a Velib station.
C.It's not suitable for a long journey.
D.The distance between two Velib stations is long.
35. What's the city spokesman's attitude towards the bicycle scheme
A.Doubtful. B.Positive. C.Uncaring. D.Worried.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was very young, my mother thought it was necessary for me to learn to play a musical instrument, as most parents do nowadays. She asked me what kind of instrument I was interested in. I didn’t have any idea, but I thought playing the drums was cool and interesting. So she took me to enroll in a drum course in the Children’s Palace, where I spent nearly every Sunday morning for two years, practicing playing the drum.
As time went on, I went to middle school. I joined a band as a drummer in my middle school. I thought it would be fun playing the drum in a team and meeting new friends. At first it was easy because of my constant practice during the primary school, but a month later, it got more and more difficult. I was the only one who couldn’t keep pace with the other players. The band consists of students playing the violin, the piano, the guitar and so on. We were in a team; the music was beautiful, but it seemed rather challenging. So I was in low spirits when playing in the band, and the joy of playing music began to fade.
Our teacher, Ms Miller, noticed my struggle and singled me out to keep practicing while everyone else got to relax. With each missed beat, I felt ashamed as my teammates watched me fail so many times. Finally I got so tired of practicing that I no longer cared if it was done right.
“Are you giving up, Steve ” Ms Miller asked gently.
“Yes, I am,” I shouted. Ms Miller sent me inside the music room where I cried out. Then she came in and said, “Don’t be sad. I believe you can make it! ” She told me never to give up and left me alone to think about it. Alone in the music room, I recalled Ms Miller’s words and finally realized she was right. Quitting wasn’t just about giving up on myself; it was about abandoning my team. I couldn’t let my teammates down.
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。
Then I decided to go on practicing.

Then I decided to go on practicing. From that day on, I made full use of every spare minute to practise the drums. Whenever I fell behind, I would slow down and repeat the beats again and again. My teammates also encouraged me and gave me useful advice. Gradually, I caught up with others and regained my confidence.
Later, we performed in an important show. We played wonderfully together and won loud applause from the audience. Standing on the stage, I felt proud and joyful. I learned that sticking to what you are doing will finally bring you success. I will never forget this valuable lesson.
