This is Ella Stevens who, at just 13 years old, is fighting for a chance to drive for the most famous team in Formula 1 (一级方程式赛车)—Ferrari.
This fall Stevens faces a series of challenges, on and off track at the Paul Ricard circuit in France, with the ultimate prize a place on the famous Ferrari Driver Academy as its first female racer. “It’s a very good opportunity for me,” Ella, already a British karting champion, tells CNN. “We have to do a few fitness tests in the first phase so that they can see our driving. ”
The Academy is, in fact, a breeding ground for future racing stars.Its current crop includes Mick Schumacher, the son of legendary Ferrari driver Michael, Enzo Fittipaldi, whose grandfather Emerson was a double F1 world champion, as well as Arthur Leclerc, the younger brother of Ferrari’s current F1 racer Charles.
On the face of it, there’s no place for a 13-year-old girl from a small village in England—who already has a mountain to climb as a female in a sport still dominated by males.After all, a female has not raced in F1 for nearly 30 years, and just five women have taken part in a grand prix (大奖赛).
But Stevens is being supported by a popular figure in the F1 community, Rob Smedley. He worked as a Ferrari engineer for more than a decade and is now teaching Stevens through his own Electroheads Talent Academy.
Smedley describes Ferrari’s search for a potential female racer as a “huge step”. “Having
a major player in the sport, with such a rich history as Ferrari, leading on this has to be applauded,” he tells CNN. “It’s absolutely amazing that they want to do this and they’re taking positive action to increase the gender diversity within the sport.”
4．What will Ella win after fighting off a series of challenges?
A．She’ll become a karting champion.
B．She’ll drive for Ferrari in Formula 1.
C．She’ll have to pass a few fitness tests.
D．She’ll become the first female racing champion.
5．Why is Mick Schumacher mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A．To make people believe he’s a famous racing driver.
B．To show Ferriari Driver Academy is difficult to enter.
C．To introduce that he was once a double F1 world champion.
D．To prove Ferrari Driver Academy is home to the promising racing drivers.
6．What does the underlined word “dominated” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A．won.B．ruled.C．placed.D．grasped. 7．What’s the best title for the text?
A．Ella Stevens: the First Female Racer
B．Ella Stevens: a Promising Racing Star
C．Formula 1—Ferrari: the World Top Race
D．Formula 1—Ferrari: a Race without Female
Bradley McConachie, a 33-year-old Australian is actually a student in international relations completing his PhD through Griffith University. He came to Beijing for a cooperative research at Beijing University two years ago. Such an academic life was colorful with a chance offered by the cultural exchanges project, “I'm in China".
Bradley was lucky to win the most "likes" for his photo story about his life in China and became one of 20 winners to visit locations by the project this summer. All the winners’ experiences were filmed to produce a reality show, My Chinese Working Day, which will be broadcast by mid-September.
Bradley was chosen to work as a recreational manager for a Chinese wedding. The film crew took them to many “amazing sites" and the staff at the resort taught them a lot about how to incorporate modern Chinese features while still keeping traditional customs.
“I would have to say two things stick out as the most memorable：the helicopter ride and talking with the staff at the hotel about how they organize weddings here in China," he said. That was Bradley's first time to be in a helicopter, and he was too absorbed with the “stunning" view of the coastline.
“I think it is so important to show other Australians the different landscapes China has to offer. I think so many Australians, when they think about China, imagine the historical sites of Beijing and the exciting things to see in Shanghai but have no idea about other beautiful places, like Sanya or the many other places people have been taken to in this TV series. It was nice to experience these little touches. I was happy to be a part of that experience!” Bradley said.
8．What made Bradley's life more colorful?
A．Obtaining his PhD．
B．The cultural exchanges project.
C．The research about Beijing University.

9．Why was Bradley given the chance?
A．He produced the reality show.
B．His life in China was interesting.

D．He liked photo stories most.
10．Which of the following best explains “stunning" in Paragraph 4?
A．Fantastic.B．Confusing.
C．Agreeable.D．Extreme.
11．What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．It's difficult to produce moving TV series.
B．Beijing and Shanghai are historical sites.
C．Sanya is worth visiting for foreigners.
D．Many Australians know little about China.
With over 4. 1 billion people, or around 55 percent of the world’s population, living in urban areas, cities and towns worldwide are getting increasingly congested. In addition to spending many hours stuck in traffic, residents are also exposed to high air pollution levels
caused by transportation emissions. Now, Saudi Arabia hopes to revolutionize urban living with “The Line”— a city designed around nature, without cars and roads!
“The Line” is designed by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS). Located in NEOM — a 10,000-square-mile high-tech planned development on the Red Sea coast in the northwestern Saudi province of Tabu — The Line will be the cornerstone of MBS s Saudi Vision 2030. The plan aims to diversify Saudi Arabia’s oil-dependent economy into other sectors, like tourism, and create exciting job opportunities for its citizens.
The 105-mile-long city, expected to cost between $100 billion and $200 billion, will be built along a straight line and is made up of several self-sustaining communities. To ensure all services are within a short, five-minute walk, each community will feature a three-layer infrastructure (基础设施).
The top “pedestrian layer” will be void of cars and roads, allowing residents to freely walk and bike in the surrounding green spaces. The second “service layer”, will include all essential daily services, such as schools, leisure facilities and grocery stores. The third “spine layer” will house high-speed subway and autonomous vehicles capable of transporting residents across communities in less than 20 minutes. The entire city will be powered with renewable clean energy sources such as solar and wind, and possibly even hydrogen.
If all goes according to plan t construction of this complex project will start before the 1st quarter of 2021. In addition to providing up to a million residents with a clean and stress-free living environment, The Line is expected to create 380,000 new jobs, start economic diversification, and contribute an astounding $ 48 billion to Saudi Arabia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by 2030. More importantly, MBS believes it will provide governments worldwide a “blueprint for how people and planet can co-exist in harmony.”12．We can infer that “The Line” will be_________.
A．temporary B．primitive C．eco-friendly D．conventional 13．What is The Line meant to result in?
A．Low crime rates.B．High unemployment.
C．Super communities.D．Diverse economic sectors.
14．What can be found on the second layer?
A．Medical clinics.B．Bus stops.
C．Underground trains.D．Cycling lanes.
15．Which of the following is the best title?
A．Saudi Arabia Has Created A Green City With No Cars Or Streets
B．“The Line” Will Be The Cornerstone Of MBS's Saudi Vision 2030
C．“The Line”— Blueprint Of People And Animals Co-existing In Harmony
D．Saudi Arabia Announces “The Line”— A Low Carbon City Without Cars
二、七选五
Do People Need Small Talk to Be Happy?
Psychologists (心理学家) have long said that connecting with others is an important part of happiness, but just how much conversation we require is under examination. In one study，researchers found that small talk made up only 10% of their conversation related with happiness.
16 . Scientists believe that small talk could promote bonding. Late last year, Princeton researchers reported that small talk keeps closeness with loved ones, and isn’t merely the stuff of awkward exchanges with strangers.
Still, chatting with strangers could brighten your morning. In a series of experiments, psychologists gave Chicago passengers different directions about whether to talk with fellow passengers-something they typically avoided. 17 . None of the chatters reported being rejected.
Small talk can also help us feel connected to our surroundings. People who smiled at，made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas (服务员) reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction (交易). 18 One report found that when volunteers broke the silence to chat with gallery goers, the visitors felt happier and more connected to the exhibit than those who were not approached.
19 .In one study, people who were rated “less curious” by researchers had trouble getting a conversation rolling on their own, and had greater luck building closeness with others when they were supplied with questions that encouraged personal disclosure (透露). But people who were considered “curious” needed no help when transforming conversations about ordinary things into personal exchanges. 20 .
A．The same is true of gallery goers.
B．They found that small talk is related with happiness
C．But don’t play down small talk just yet.
D．Of course, some people are better than others at turning small talk into something bigger.
E．A “curious mindset”，the author concluded, can lead to “positive social interactions”.
F．Making small talk is an important skill for all the social situations.
G．Those told to chat with others reported a more pleasant journey.

When a student told Katie that he wanted bike but couldn’t afford it, she decided to make his dream come true. And she even took the whole school under consideration. At the school that she worked, a lot of students were poor. But Katie thought own their own bikes would make wonderfully memories for every child. To earn money for hundreds of new bike, Katie launched an online page, and finally raise enough money to pay for them. Katie was surprised the kids by announcing a gift over a loudspeaker at school. “Joy is the basic childhood right,” she said. “A bike is one of the top things that represents that.”
