My First Marathon（马拉松）
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher requ ired us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was ＂not athletic＂.
The idea that I was ＂not athletic＂ stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line.
I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: ＂GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!＂
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21, I was starving!
As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a ＂marathon winner＂.
24. A month before the marathon, the author ____________.
A. was well trained
B. felt scared
C. made up his mind to run
D. lost hope
25. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year?
A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher.
B. To amuse the readers with a funny story.
C. To show he was not talented in sports.
D. To share a precious memory.
26. How was the author’s first marathon?
A. He made it.
B. He quit halfway.
C. He got the first prize.
D. He walked to the end.
27. What does the story mainly tell us?
A. A man owes his success to his family support.
B. A winner is one with a great effort of will.
C. Failure is the mother of success.
D. One is never too old to learn.
C
“Fast fashion” means clothes which are inexpensive but look like the latest designs. One reason for the success of fast fashion is the rise of the social media.
A report by the investment research firm Bernstein found that Millennials— people born in the 1980s and 90s— wanted to wear a variety of clothes in the photos they posted on social media. As a result, many businesses which offer trendy and low-cost clothes are growing.
But the situation is changing now. Maxine, a woman in her early thirties, looks in her closet full of clothes, but she has nothing to wear. She says she hates always shopping for what is in style. Instead, she wants to buy fewer clothes that she can wear over and over. “Other people want the same thing.” she says.
So Maxine and a business partner, Soraya, started a “slow fashion” clothing company called Zady. “Slow fashion” means clothes that last a long time. They often feature classic colors and shapes, and are made from natural materials.
The terms “fast fashion” and “slow fashion” are related to “fast food” and “slow food”: fast food is still popular in the U.S., but many restaurants increasingly offer high-quality, more expensive and relaxed meals.
Like slow food, slow fashion also aims to use sources that are good for the environment and workers. Maxine says people in her generation want to know where their clothes come from and who is making them. To answer Millennials’ demand for informatio n about the products they buy, Ms Maxine’s company, Zady, includes details about the history of the brands. It also describes the process in which the clothes are made. Maxine says Zady aims to tell shoppers where their clothes come from, where they go, and how they impact the world.
The international business H&M is answering Millennials’ demands in another way. It has created a recycling program for clothes. Shoppers who bring clothes they no longer want to H&M stores can receive a discount on new things they buy. An H&M spokesman says, “We have a clear vision to avoid and minimize waste that goes into landfills.”
28. About Millennials, which of the following statements is not true?
A. Most of them are in their twenties or thirties.
B. They are crazy about fashionable and cheap clothes.
C. They contributed a lot to the rise of fast fashion.
D. They may have a taste for clothes of classic colors and shapes now.
29. “Slow food” is mentioned in the passage to tell us______.
A. it is healthier than fast food
B. why fast food is so popular in the U.S.
C. it is a kind of slow fashion
D. why slow fashion comes now
30. What can we learn about the program of H&M in the last paragraph?
A. It can benefit the environment
B. the company only sells clothes made of recycling materials.
C. customers may receive a discount if they buy some outdated clothes.
D. It will take the lead in the latest fashion.
31. Which is the best title of the text?
A. Fast Fashion, Good or Bad
B. Slow Fashion is in Fashion
C. Fast Food or Slow Food
D. What is out of Fashion
D
It was December 25, 1914, only 5 months into World War I. German, British, and French soldiers, already sick and tired of the senseless killing, disobeyed their superiors and started socializing with “the enemy” along two-thirds of the Western Front.
German troops held up Christmas trees with signs, “Merry Christmas”. Thousands of troops ran across the battlefields covered with dead bodies. They sang Christmas songs, exchanged photographs of loved ones back home, shared food and even played football. Soldiers hugged men they had been trying to kill a few short hours before. They agreed to warn each other if their officers forced them to fire their weapons, and to aim high.
Fear ran through the military leaders on both sides. They felt that their power was being challenged: soldiers declaring their brotherhood with each other and refusing to fight. Generals declared this unexpected peacemaking illegal and said that participating soldiers would face a military court. Those found guilty would be imprisoned or even shot. By March 1915 the socializing movement had been destroyed and the killing machine was back in full operation. Over the next three years more than fifteen million people died in the war.
Not many people have heard the story of the Christmas Truce (休战). On Christmas Day, 1988, a local radio host in Boston played “Christmas in the Trenches”, a song about the Christmas Truce, several times and was stunned by his listeners’ response. Thousands of people called in, praising the song, with many moved to tears by the amazing events it described.
You can probably guess why the callers were in tears. The Christmas Truce story goes against most of what we have been taught about people. It lets us see the world as it can be and says, “This really happened once.” It shows us the potential we have as humans, and contradicts all of those TV and newspaper stories that tell us how mean and heartless people are. It is like hearing that our deepest wishes really are true: the world really can be different.
32. The soldiers began socializing with the enemy because ________.
A. they couldn't bear the meaningless killing
B. it was the best way to avoid being killed
C. they feared that they would be caught
D. their enemies were from similar backgrounds
33. How did the generals finally put an end to the soldiers’ socializing?
A. They sent the soldiers’ loved ones to prison.
B. They moved the two groups of soldiers further apart.
C. They increased the number of officers to control the soldiers.
D. They warned the soldiers that they would face severe punishment.
34. The underlined word “stunned” in Paragraph 4 most probably means ________.
A. satisfied
B. shocked
C. amused
D. confused
35. The author uses the story of the soldiers to imply that human beings ________.
A. are not trustworthy under stress
B. are naturally aggressive and war-like
C. are basically caring and kindhearted
D. will always do what is in their own self-interest
