21、Friends always ask why I, a middle-aged woman with no athletic talent, travel to perilous places—the jungles of Thailand or Borneo, for example, where the water is often unsafe and the food dangerous; places with infectious diseases, poisonous snakes and the wildest animals.

I never know how to answer. My travel decisions assumed a new gravity nine years ago after I suffered a stroke. To prevent another stroke, my doctors told me, I’d have to take dangerously high levels of blood thinner (抗凝血剂) for the rest of my life and any travel would be risky.

I had to think about what was important to me: family, of course, and friends. But then what? No matter how many times I thought about it, no bucket list was complete without travel. Then I had to decide how I might manage the risk. I had to decide how lucky I felt.

My return to travel after my stroke came in baby steps. The first real test of my travel courage came nine months after my stroke when I joined my husband, Jack, on a business trip to China. After we’d toured the remains of a Tang dynasty temple on a high mountain, Jack wanted to ride down on a toboggan (长雪橇).

Before the stroke it would have seemed like fun. But now? I hesitated. My mental klaxon (高音喇叭) screamed warnings about the results of a cut, a fall, and a crash. Then, gaining confidence from who knows where, I lowered myself carefully into the toboggan, which marked my adventure travel comeback.

In the years since then, I’ve traveled about twenty-five percent of the time. Through it all, my luck held out—no deadly falls, no car accidents or serious infections. For me, adventure travel is a risk worth taking. Travel broadens my world and keeps me connected to nature. What’s more, saying “yes” to travel keeps me connected to myself.

【1】What does the underlined word “perilous” in paragraph 1 probably mean?

A．Unique.

B．Dangerous.

C．Historical.

D．Famous.

【2】What did the doctors advise the author to do?

A．Do exercise carefully.

B．Enjoy the rest of her life.

C．Keep away from traveling.

D．Spend time with her family.

【3】What did the author do during his trip to China?

A．She rode on a toboggan down a mountain with her husband.

B．She worked most of the time doing business with local people.

C．She stayed in a hotel because she suffered another stroke.

D．She visited a lot of famous temples on high mountains.

【4】Why does the author like adventure travel so much?

A．Because she wants to be more confident and courageous.

B．Because it is more important than her family and friends.

C．Because she wants to prove it's not as risky as doctors say.

D．Because it helps her learn more about the world and herself.

22、It’s far from easy for people to run just one marathon. They usually need months of training to get into shape to last the 42.195-km distance. However, marathons are no problem for Australian runner Erchana Murray-Bartlett.

Murray-Bartlett ran 150 of them — every day for 150 days. The 32-year-old woman ran 6,329 kilometres from Queensland, at the top of Australia, to Melbourne, at the bottom. Her five-month coast-to-coast run set a new world record, the most consecutive (连续不断的) daily marathons. She smashed the earlier record of 106 marathons in 106 days.

As a professional runner, Murray-Bartlett missed out on getting the chance to take part in the Tokyo Olympics, so she set her sights on a record-establishing challenge. More importantly, by running across the country, she hoped to make people pay more attention to the fact that many kinds of animals and plants were dying out in Australia. Finally, her run raised $70,000 for the protection organization, the Wilderness Society. She said it was terribly hard five months, but she knew she could do it. She said, “Even though sometimes I was covered in sweat and flies, and everything ached, I thought, ‘No, I can go one more kilometre’ or,’ No, I can go 500 more metres’. Lots of tiny goals mean you can do it.”

【1】What does the author mainly tell us in paragraph 1?

A．Murray-Bartlett is an Australian sportswoman.

B．It’s very important for people to keep in shape.

C．The marathon covers a distance of 42.195 kilometres.

D．It’s not difficult for Murray-Bartlett to run marathons.

【2】What world record did Murray-Bartlett create?

A．She ran 150 daily marathons for 150 days.

B．She finished a marathon in the shortest time.

C．She was the youngest to complete a marathon.

D．She ran from the top to the bottom of Australia.

【3】The underlined word “smashed” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.

A．kept

B．broke

C．reached

D．followed

【4】Why did Murray-Bartlett ran her daily marathons?

A．She aimed to help protect the wildlife.

B．She meant to raise money for herself.

C．She hoped to compete in the Olympics.

D．She wanted to establish a social organization.

【5】Murray-Bartlett succeeded in setting the world record mainly because ________.

A．she had a tiny goal

B．she was professional

C．she never gave up

D．she was kind-hearted

23、As people continue to use the Internet more, they share more information about themselves. It is important to protect yourself and stay safe online.

【1】 When searching for information online, you should check to make sure that you are accessing a trustworthy site. When you need that wireless (无线的) connection, always use private Wi-Fi. Installing ( 安装) antivirus software and enabling your firewall will add another layer of protection against hackers (黑客).

Besides, although our generation is often thought of as experienced in using social media, many people use the same password for their logins (登录). 【2】 Instead, you can create different passwords for each of your accounts. Using numbers and special characters (@, $, *) will make your passwords stronger.

【3】 By keeping your accounts private, you can see who is following you and has access to your posts. Don’t accept requests from people you don’t know. 【4】

While these tips can help you stay safe from getting hacked, you may still be hacked. 【5】 If you cannot get into your accounts, make sure you contact those companies as soon as possible. If your device (设备) has been hacked, it is best to completely remove your device storage. Stay safe!

A．First, you should keep your devices safe.

B．All things can cover the world in a moment.

C．It makes you wonder if they mean what they say.

D．Social media is also an easy place to learn more about you.

E．When this happens, it is important to change your passwords at once.

F．And make sure not to share sensitive information like your birthday or age.

G．This makes it easy for hackers to get your information with just one password.

24、After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance: curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.

【1】 Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why? Why? Why?”

Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don't have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them. “The great man.” said Mencius, “is he who does not lose his child's heart.” Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. 【2】 We jus follow the crowd. And the crowd desires only the calm and restful average. It encourages us to occupy our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps into the dark. to be satisfied.

Most of us meet new people, and new ideas,with hesitation. 【3】 We will probably have to force ourselves to awaken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.

How should you start? Modestly, so as not to become discouraged. I think of one friend who couldn't arrange flowers to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. Now she is one of the experts. writing books on flower arrangement. One way to begin is to answer your own excuse. You haven't any special ability? Most people don't: there are only a few geniuses. You haven't any time? 【4】 Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom's Cabin while cooking. You' re too old? Remember Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78

However you start, remember there is no better time to start then right now. for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment.

A．We stop challenging custom.

B．That's good, because it's always the people with no time who get things done.

C．Either curiosity or discontent makes human being move forward.

D．These deep human urges count for much more than ambition.

E．But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance.

F．Discontent made the great names unsatisfied.

25、   Every minute, every single day, the equivalent of a truckload of plastic enters our oceans. In the name of profit and convenience, corporations are literally choking (塞满) our planet with a substance that does not just “____” when we toss it into a bin. Since the 1950s, some 8.3bn tons of plastic have been produced worldwide, and to date, only 9% of that has been recycled. Our oceans bear the brunt (受主要冲击) of plastics epidemic—up to 12.7m tons of plastic end up in them every year.

Just over a decade ago, I launched the Story of Stuff to help shine a light on the ways we ____, use and dispose of the stuff in our lives. The Story of Stuff is inextricably (不可逃避的) linked to the story of plastics—the packaging that goes along with those endless ____. We buy a soda, sip it for a few minutes, and toss its ____ packaging “away”. We eat potato chips, finish them, and throw their packaging “away”.

The cycle is endless, and it happens countless times every single day. But here’s the ____—there is no “away”. As far as we try to toss a piece of plastic—whether it’s into a recycling bin or not—it does not disappear. Chances are, it ____ polluting our communities, oceans or waterways in some form.

For years, we’ve been ____ that the problem of plastic packaging can be solved through better individual action. We’re told that if we ____ recycle, we’re doing our part. We’re told that if we drink from a reusable bottle, we’re making enough of a ____. But the truth is that we cannot recycle our way out of this mess.

Recycling alone will never stop the flow of plastics into our oceans; we have to get to the ____ of the problem and slow down the production of all this plastic waste. Think about it: if your home was flooding because you had left the tap on, your first step wouldn’t be to start ____. You’d first cut the flooding off at its source—the tap. In many ways, our plastics problem is no different.

____, we need corporations—those like Coca-Cola, Unilever, Starbucks and Nestlé that continue to mass-produce throwaway plastic bottles, cups, and straws—to step up and show real ____ for the mess they’ve created. Drink companies produce over 500bn single-use plastic bottles annually; there is no way that we can recycle our way out of a problem of that scale.

Bag, cup and straw bans like those in Morocco, Iceland, Vancouver and some US cities are a great start, but also not enough. And while clean-up efforts are ____ in addressing litter problems, they can’t begin to touch the problems created by microplastics.

Not long ago, we existed in a world without throwaway plastic, and we can thrive that way again. The world’s largest corporations—with all their profits and innovation labs—are well ____ to help move us beyond single-use plastics. All over the world people are already innovating toward solutions that focus on reusing and reducing plastics. It’s time to accelerate this process and move beyond half measures and baby steps.
