The “Olympic Rings” flag was designed by Coubertin in 1913. The rings represent the five continents that participate in the Olympics: Africa, Asia,America,AustraliaandEurope. The six color1 s include at least one color1 that is represented on the flag of every country.
The Stadiums
The stadiums that host the Olympic Games are as much of a celebration of design as the games are a celebration of sportsmanship. Guests can explore plans and models of Olympic stadiums’ past and present, including one of the games’ most attractive stadiums, the Bird’s Nest from Beijing 2008 Olympics.
The Olympic Medals
Have you ever wondered what an Olympic medal looks like?

Until quarantine (隔离期) ends, we are left picturing what sport we might do: working out at the gym, playing on a competitive sports team, swimming, biking, or rock climbing. However, we don’t often think of martial arts as possible activities; instead, we rule it out because we think it’s dangerous, uncommon, and even, impossible. Martial arts aren’t considered a sport, right?
Well, here’s some good news: you’re wrong! Martial arts aren’t much more common than people think, and you can start learning at any age. Practicing martial arts is a great way to keep in shape, both physically and mentally. They’re much less boring and much lessarduoussport than they’re usually described as in movies, so do not worry that they need a lot of effort.
Martial arts generally require you to focus on the position and movement of every one of your legs and arms, sometimes even your breathing too. Think about it: when you leave the gym, your mental state has improved and you are much calmer. This is because you’ve only paid attention to one activity. It is a great way to clear your head. Andpracticing it can help you learn to stay more focused, which is the greatest advantage of martial arts training.
Martial arts also improve your coordination (协调性), and greatly improve your posture (姿势). I have personally seen students go from slouching (没精打采) to walking tall with their shoulders back in just a couple of months.
There are many styles and countless kinds of martial arts. Whichever one you like better, know that all of them are good choices.
4. What can we know about martial arts from the first two paragraphs?
A. They often have people hurt.
B. They are difficult to practice.
C. People have a wrong view on it.
D. People practice them more often.
5. What does the underlined word “arduous” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Interesting.
B. Difficult.
C. Friendly.
D. Exciting.
6. What is the biggest benefit of practicing martial arts?
A. Adjusting the breath.
B. Enjoying one’s free time.
C. Correcting the movement.
D. Keeping one’s attention.
7. What does the writer think of martial arts?
A. They are notsports.
B. They attracted many teenagers.
C. They are beneficial and helpful.
D. They were invented to protect others.
C
If you think you’d like to live on Mars, you may have that possibility by 2023. A Dutch company called Mars One will soon advertise for people interested in colonizing (开拓) Mars. Ifyou have all the necessary skills, you could be one of the first colonists. Are you ready for the challenge?
You won’t have to pay for the mission to Mars. Mars One has already received money from some donors and is hoping to get more from TV viewers who will become interested in the show where all applicants have a debate for the rare chances.
The main responsibility of the first colonists is to create an artificial environment on Mars where there is no air to breathe and no land to farm. Scientists know it’s quite possible because something similar has already been done inAntarctica.
Another problem is that space travel to Mars takes nearly a year to get to Mars and the colonists will live the rest of their lives there. When a human lives in an environment without gravity or with low gravity for a long time, the systems in the body weaken. Luckily, spinning (旋转) the spaceship can create artificial gravity, and artificial gravity can ease these problems. It will also be difficult for Mars colonists to be far from home, living in small spaces, and seeing the same people over and over. Colonists with depression could put the mission in danger. Fortunately, a few years ago, a joint Russian and European project called the Mars500 Mission studied people’s reactions in a Mars-like environment. It is viewed as a great success because scientists were able to see how people handle emotional and physical stresses.
Recent studies show that seven percent of people would want to go on such an adventure.
Mars One will soon start accepting its first colonists. Are you interested?
8. What do we know about the applicants to Mars from the first two paragraphs?
A. They will land on Mars in 2023.
B. They can get money from donors.
C. They will compete in a TV show.
D. They do not need special skills.
9. What will the first colonists do to solve the basic living problems on Mars?
A. Create earth-like conditions.
B. Build labs inAntarctica.
C. Spin the spaceship.
D. Start the Mars500Mission.
10. What can the life of the first colonists be like according to the passage?
A. Difficult and dangerous.
B. Different but adaptable.
C. Challenging and unbearable .
D. Acceptable but depressing.
11. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Mars: our final destination?
B. Ready to be Mars’ colonists?
C. Space travel: a thrilling adventure?
D. Are you a qualified Mars astronaut?
D
Preventing heart disease is a topic I think about all the time, given my family history of heart disease. So last summer, I travelled toBolivia.The natives, called the Tsimane, were reported to have the healthiest hearts in the world. I wanted to learn what they could teach me about preventing heart disease.
Getting to the Tsimane wasn't easy. They lived in small family groups of about 60 people along river banks. We finally found one of the villages at sunset. That night, we set up our tents in the middle of the village. Thatched huts surrounded us, with no electricity or modem conveniences.
At first, I thought they mainly got their calorics from meat. However, I found food such as rice and com made up nearly 70% of their diet. The food was not processed, lacking added sugars or salts.
During my stay there, I went hunting and fishing with the men and played soccer with the kids. I found the Tsimane were standing or walking nearly all of their waking hours. Men spent lots of time tracking animals. Fanning and gathering, mostly done by children and women, were all-day affairs.
I also got a clear idea of how they rested. As soon as the sun went down, people returned to their huts and went to sleep. And with the call of the cock in the morning, another day began.
The lifespan of the Tsimane is actually much shorter than those living in theUS. Various factors, like animal attacks and infections, bring down the lifespan. But up until the day they die, they are often very healthy. While
heart disease kills thousands of Americans every year and costs nearly a billion dollars a day, the Tsimane remind us that wealth doesn't necessarily buy health.
12. Why does the author pay so much attention to preventing heart disease?
A. He dreams of becoming a doctor.
B. He wants to teach others about the topic.
C. His family members encourage him to do so.
D. He was born with a high risk of heart disease.
13. Which factors did the author mainly focus on in his research?
A. Housing, food and cooperation.
B. Diet, activity and rest.
C. Physical work, social life and lifespan.
D. Group size, family history and consumption
14. What was the Tsimane 's sleep-wake cycle mainly based on?
A. Natural sound.
B. Routine activity.
C. Animal behaviour.
D. Natural light.
15. What might the author advise us to do after his travels inBolivia?
A. Take in less sugar and salt.
B. Stand less and walk more.
C. Eat white meat instead of red meat.
D. Live in the middle of the community.

Henry started his teddy bear craft-making hobby when he was only 9 years old. Now a teen, his one-of-a-kind collection has grown into thousands, but you won't find his bears on the shelf at home. His mission of kindness has the only purpose of donating his creations to put a smile on the faces of sick children and lift their spirits.
The young boy's work began one day when he was Christmas shopping with his mother. He asked if he could buy a few presents for sick children in hospitals. His mother had to infuse because the family, which included nine children, could simply not afford the extra cost. Henry told his mother not to worry-he would make the toys himself.
“I hadn’t sewed(缝纫)anything before. In the beginning, it took me a lot of practice,“ Henry recalled.
He borrowed his mother's sewing machine and got straight to work. He learned to create the toy animals by trial and error, using the Internet for instructions. It took him five hours to make his first bear, which he described as “a simple, ugly bear”. With much practice and effort, he was able to cut his time down to one hour per bear, and he began creating unique, bright-color1 ed bears that kids love to hug.
Throughout his youth, while most other children were playing video games or skateboarding , Henry was working on a sewing machine, making stuffed animals. What drives his hard work is seeing firsthand how a child changes when they are gifted a teddy bear. Each child's eyes light up with joy, and for a moment, they forget their illness.
“They smile, and some hug me. It makes their whole day better," said Henry, describing how children typically react when he hands them a toy bear. He believes each bear inspires a sense of hope in the receiver.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
