23、This time there was no showboating for the cameras — or dark and long nights of the soul. Instead, on a heart-warming afternoon at the Genting Snow Park, the Winter Olympics witnessed the greatest story in its history.

For 16 years Lindsey Jacobellis has been known as the snowboarder who was miles clear of the Turin 2006 Olympics board cross final — until she fell on the last jump while showing off by taking a celebratory grab (抓取) of her board. It was an act that turned gold into silver, and led to her spending years trying to process what had happened. Yet somehow, in her fifth Olympics, the woman sprang a considerable shock by finally winning a gold medal at the age of 36.

For good measure, her gold in the snowboard cross was also her nation’s first of these Games. As Jacobellis motored towards the finish in the final, she could hear the French boarder Chloé Trespeuch closing. But this time she wasn’t going to let gold slip away. Afterwards she acknowledged that without that mistake in 2006 she may never have won gold in Beijing. “ Probably not, and I probably would have quit the sport at that point because I wasn’t really having fun with it. There was so much pressure on me to be the golden girl. I’d won so many races going into it and it’s a lot for a young athlete to have on their plate, ” she said.

But this day was mostly about Jacobellis, a five-time snowboard cross world champion, who finally secured the first prize. Afterwards she said that when she got to the start line of the final, she felt unusually calm. She said, “ They can keep talking about it all they want. Because it really shaped me into the person that I am. It kept me hungry and really helped me to keep fighting in the sport. ”

A．There were dark and long nights in the winter of Beijing.

B．There was a champion born in the Beijing Winter Olympics.

C．There was a heart-warming story happening in the boating race.

D．There was the greatest photo taken in the competition in 2022.

【2】Why did Lindsey Jacobellis fail to get a gold medal in 2006?

A．She fell on her last jump as grabbing her board to celebrate.

B．She had a mental disorder during her board cross competition.

C．She had her leg broken while training before the competition.

D．She was forbidden to join in the competition for some reason.

【3】What does the author think of Lindsey Jacobellis?

A．Warm-hearted.

B．Strong-minded.

C．Well-educated.

D．Born-gifted.

24、Before Starlink, a new satellite Internet system from the company SpaceX, most satellite Internet service was based on satellites that constantly remained above one point on Earth-over Chicago, for example, which means that signals from farther away need to travel a long distance, causing delays. Starlink has a web of satellites moving constantly in a low orbit around the Earth. Because the satellites are closer, the speeds are faster, which makes the service better for things that need to happen without delays, like holding meetings over the Internet.

To get on the Internet with Starlink, users need a terminal(终端). The terminal tracks the web of satellites and communicates with them to provide Internet service. The service works as long as the terminal is placed where it can “see” the sky.

Starlink currently works in 31 countries, but SpaceX plans to expand the service to cover the whole world. The clearest need for this kind of service is in remote areas. Starlink terminals also work from moving objects, so SpaceX is also planning to offer service on transportation, like planes, trains, and boats.

Starlink currently has over 2, 100 satellites in orbit around Earth. SpaceX has permission from the US government to launch 12, 000 satellites, and it has asked for permission to launch as many as 30, 000 more.

Astronomers have complained that Starlink satellites are causing light pollution. This makes it harder to study things in space with satellites getting in the way. SpaceX has worked to abate the light from Starlink satellites. But scientists say the satellites still make their work harder. This will get worse as more satellites fill the skies.

There are also concerns about Starlink satellites crashing into other satellites or spacecraft. In 2019, a European satellite had to move to avoid coming close to Starlink satellites. Still, Starlink has been useful in emergencies. When the island nation of Tonga lost Internet service after a volcano erupted in January, 2022, SpaceX was able to provide temporary service using Starlink.

【1】What does paragraph 1 focus on about Starlink?

A．Its developments.

B．Its history.

C．Its advantages.

D．Its origin.

【2】Which word best describes SpaceX when it comes to Starlink?

A．Cautious.

B．Ambitious.

C．Generous.

D．Controversial.

【3】What does the underlined word “abate” in paragraph 5 mean?

A．Ignore.

B．Protect.

C．Discover.

D．Reduce.

【4】Why is Tonga’s volcanic eruption mentioned?

A．To prove Starlink’s usefulness.

B．To show its damge to Starlink.

C．To explain why Starlink is developed.

D．To analyze how Starlink is improved.

26、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。

It was a sunny day. Anabia, an 11-year-old girl, was excited because today was the drawing contest at her school. Anabia was really good at drawing and usually got the highest marks in art. Her teachers would often ask her to make posters for school plays and call on her during free periods to help with cuttings, drawing, shading, colouring and much more. There was an art competition taking place in school and Anabia had worked really hard and wanted to win it. But there was one thing that was disturbing her today.

Recently, a new girl, Rida, had joined her class. She was also interested in art but she was not as good at drawing as Anabia was. Miss Saima, the art teacher, helped Rida and taught her tips and tricks to improve her drawing skill. And now Rida was also considered among the best artists in grade six.

Rida was quick, smart and intelligent. Anabia became jealous of Rida’s intelligence and felt that the new girl would be tough to beat.

So that day, for the art competition, Miss Saima took all the students to the art room, told them their roll numbers and gave important instructions. Anabia’s roll number was 16, while Rida was number 17. The bell rang, indicating the beginning of the contest. Miss Saima wrote on the board: make a scene of a sunset with a flowing river and a sailing boat.

Anabia knew that the best tools to make a sunset were oil pastels (油画棒). Anabia started to look for her oil pastels in her art bag. Then, after looking through the bag, she remembered that she had left them at home. Immediately, she got up to tell Miss Saima.

Miss Saima was disappointed at Anabia’s carelessness and told her that she could not help her, as it was her responsibility to come prepared for the contest that had been announced a week in advance. Anabia’s best friends were also there, but none of them offered to share anything, much to Anabia’s surprise and disappointment.

注意：
