How Running Helped Me T\irn My Life Around
I've never been an athlete. Aside from excelling at all academic disciplines at school, my main goal was to 11 PE at all costs. In my twenties, I went for an occasional yoga or Zumba class, but that was really the summary of all my athletic accomplishments.
That was until the end of 2016, when I was unexpectedly laid off. The 12 of getting a new job soon were not in my favor and 13 thoughts of not being good enough started to kick in. I was feeling quite depressed but pushed myself to go and 14 for the TCS NYC Marathon runners as the course was going through our neighborhood.
However, while being there, I got phenomenal 15 from all the runners, smiling, applauding and high-fiving constantly. Not a runner myself, I thought maybe I could give running a 16 , just to try, to use my neglected gym membership and see where it 17 me. And so I tried. I went to my local gym the next morning and got on a treadmill （跑步机）.I was out of breath by minute five, but I
18 down, walked for a bit and then restarted. I came back the next day, hoping to 19 a few
minutes longer. By the end of two weeks, I could run for 30 minutes, which was a huge 20 .
While I saw my body starting to look more toned, I also noticed my negative thoughts didn't occur that 21 And it sparked a thought—what if I could set a running 22 and sign up for my first- ever race? I did and races sort of became a new hobby.
In the meantime, I was able to 23 a few freelance （自由职业的）projects. They offered me a good
24 , and, most importantly, the time to work out for the big race. Also, when I was going for interviews,
I started to feel very 25 in my abilities, experience and skills.
I got my full-time job 26 at my dream company just a couple of weeks before the halfmarathon. Although I got an 27 from overtraining right before the race, I still went for it and still finished within my
28 time.
I still have a long running 29 ahead of me—I'd love to work on my speed, my technique and I dream of running a marathon outside of the US. Running gives me 30 that I can do anything I set my mind to.

Stuttering （口 吃）has nothing to do with intelligence. I know this because I stutter. If it takes me a while longer to say a word, it's not because I can't remember the word; it's because the neural G 申经的） pathway that transforms words in my head into sounds in my mouth is wired differently. And differences, of course, are the best way to get negative attention in our society. Taking extra time to get my words out can surely be frustrating, but that's nothing compared to the misery of dealing with people's reactions.
Almost all children who stutter are discouraged from speaking in one way or another. It's usually not as direct as someone walking up to them and saying, “Hey, stuttering kid! Keep your mouth shut!” But when your voice causes adults and peers to snicker （窃笑）or roll their eyes, it's pretty discouraging.
32. 33. A. Weekly expenses.
C. Weather forecasts.
Growing up, I learned to avoid speaking whenever possible. I hated what came out of my mouth, full of awkward breaks and pauses. I figured whatever future I had, it probably involved a vow of silence.
Today Fm a touring author and comedian. It took me 30-something years to get over stuttering. Did I stop stuttering? No! I couldn't stop if I wanted to. But I stopped wanting to stop. Instead of wasting all my time and energy trying to meet unattainable standards, I learned that it's OK to stutter. And I learned by example. I attended the National Stuttering Association conference and met all kinds of people who stutter—people who didn't hate themselves, who didn't silence themselves. They stuttered, and they were OK with it! I remember watching them and thinking, "That's who I want to be!"
There's a popular saying in comedy: "Your weakness is your strength." When I first entered my local open-mic scene, I was quickly met with some "smart" guys looking to score a cheap laugh at my expense.
I remember introducing myself to one comedian and stuttering on my name, as I usually do. Eager to demonstrate his smartness, he replied, "Is that Nina with five Ns?" "No," I said, "it's Nina with two Ns!" Just like that, I had created a joke as the result of someone making fiin of my stutter.
To this day, whenever I need inspiration for a new joke, I just think about all the ridiculous comments I get from non-stuttering people. It's a comedy gold mine!
34.It takes the author longer to say a word because she has .
A. a comparatively low IQ
B. trouble in organizing ideas
C. a relatively small brain
D. problems in her neural system
35.What annoys the author most about her stuttering is .
A.the unfriendly reactions of others
B.the difficulty in memorising words
C.her unpromising future as a stutterer
D.her embarrassing pauses during talks
36.The author got over stuttering by .
A.adjusting her attitude towards it
B.getting help from non-stutterers
C.telling herself constantly to stop it
D.silencing herself whenever possible
37.Paragraph 5 is mainly about the author5s .
A.success as a comedian
B , respect for other comedians
C.resistance to others5 strength
D.acceptance of her imperfection
C
The ancient tale of the Country Mouse and the Town Mouse was only the first to emphasize rural folk's supposed simplicity when compared with more sophisticated urbanites. However, neuro-scientists announce that, in fact, it is city living that can dull the wits.
The new study led by Dr. Spiers at Nantes University describes how they used a dataset from 4 million people of a computer game, which tests navigating skills by asking players to memorise a map showing the location of checkpoints and then measuring how well players can find them, guided only by their mental map. Dr. Spiers and his colleagues examined the 4 million people from 38 countries, and found that the strongest indicator of a high score was a player's age—older people performed relatively poorly, which agrees with what researchers know about age-related cognitive decline. But the benefit of rural living was strong enough to offset some of that. Data showed that a 70-year-old who grew up in the countryside had the navigational abilities of an average 60-year-old across the dataset.
There is a huge gap between the navigation skills of rural and city people, and the researchers think they know why. Dr. Spiers says that the brain's navigational abilities probably weaken in the less challenging city environment because they are not being used as much. Although cities may appear more elaborate, they also feature more clues to help residents find their way, such as numbered streets. In the countryside, however, one field tends to look much the same as another, so there are fewer external landmarks to help guide the way.
Neuroscientists already know that living and working in more complex environments can influence the function and structure of the brain. Brain scans of London taxi drivers, who have gained an encyclopedic memory of the city5 s streets, show that they tend to have an enlarged hippocampus—a region of the brain acting as a neural GPS, sensing position and path on an internal map of the environment.
The harmful effect of city living on navigation is probably most serious in people under 16—18, Dr. Spiers says, because their still-developing brains respond and change the most according to external stimuli. And while people who live in cities with young children should not be alarmed, the study does raise some interesting ideas for urban planners: keep their city designs not so simple perhaps. And for everyone else, it might be an idea to turn off maps on the phone.
38.The study led by Dr. Spiers shows that .
A.the seniors score higher at computer games
B.rural life benefits people's sense of direction
C.participants are better at finding ways in cities
D.the young remember checkpoints better in maps
39.The underlined word u offset，in Para. 2 most probably means .
A.achieve
B. confirm
C. reduce
D. replace
40.What is the purpose of the passage?
A.To introduce a new way of driver training.
B.To expose the drawbacks of living in the urban area.
C.To show the contrast between lives in the country and city.
D.To present environments* impact on one's ability to locate places.
41.What is the best tide for the passage?
A.Lost in the City
B.Brain Weakened in Cities
C.Navigating to the Countryside
D.The Negative Effects of City Living
D
Communities across the world are starting to ban facial recognition technologies. The efforts are well intentioned, but banning facial recognition is the wrong way to fight against modem surveillance （监视）.Generally, modem mass surveillance has three broad components: identification, correlation and discrimination.
Facial recognition is a technology that can be used to identify people without their consent. Once we
are identified, the data about who we are and what we are doing can be correlated with other data. This
might be move ment data, which can be used to "follow” us as we move throughout our day. It can be
purchasing data, Internet browsing data, or data about who we talk to via email or text. It might be data
about our income, ethnicity, lifestyle, profession and interests. There is an entire industry of data brokers
who make a living by selling our data without our consent.
It's not just that they know who we are; it's that they correlate what they know about us to create
profiles about who we are and what our interests are. The whole purpose of this process is for companies
to treat individuals differently. We are shown different ads on the Internet and receive different offers for
credit cards. In the future, we might be treated differently when we walk into a store, just as we currently
are when we visit websites.
It doesn't matter which technology is used to identify people. What's important is that we can be
consistently identified over time. We might be completely anonymous （匿名的）in a system that uses
unique cookies to track us as we browse the Internet, but the same process of correlation and
discrimination still occurs.
Regulating this system means addressing all three steps of the process. A ban on facial recognition
won't make any difference. The problem is that we are being identified without our knowledge or consent,
and society needs rules about when that is permissible.
Similarly, we need rules about how our data can be combined with other data, and then bought and sold without our knowledge or consent. The data broker industry is almost entirely unregulated now. Reasonable laws would prevent the worst of their abuses.
Finally, we need better rules about when and how it is permissible for companies to discriminate. Discrimination based on protected characteristics like race and gender is already illegal, but those rules are ineffectual against the current technologies of surveillance and control. When people can be identified and their data correlated at a speed and scale previously unseen, we need new rules.
Today, facial recognition technologies are receiving the force of the tech backlash （抵制），but focusing on them misses the point. We need to have a serious conversation about all the technologies of identification, correlation and discrimination, and decide how much we want to be spied on and what sorts of influence we want them to have over our lives.
42.According to Para. 2, with facial recognition, .
A.one5s lifestyle changes greatly
B.one's email content is disclosed
C.one's profiles are updated in time
D.one's personal information is released
43.We can learn from the passage that .
A.discrimination based on new tech surveillance is illegal
B.different browsing data bring in different advertisements
https://www.doczj.com/doc/247229578.html,ing mobiles anonymously keeps us from being correlated
D.data brokers control the current technologies of surveillance
44.The underlined part “the point，, in the last paragraph probably refers to .
A.people's concern over their safety
B.the nature of the surveillance society
C.proper regulation of mass surveillance
D.the importance of identification technology
45.The author wrote this passage to .
A.call for banning facial recognition technologies
B.advocate the urgent need for changes in related laws
https://www.doczj.com/doc/247229578.html,rm readers of the disadvantages of facial recognition
D.evaluate three broad components in modem mass surveillance

Once considered an optional lifestyle choice, recycling has become a commonplace activity in most areas. One type of recycling, called downcycling, involves re-purposing a material into a new product of lesser quality. 46
Downcycling is also known as downstream recycling. It is most common in terms of industrial materials. These products lose their value as they are recycled, which limits their capacity for new use. 47 White writing paper, for example, is often downcycled into cardboard; once downcycled to this new form, it can no longer be used as white paper again. Another example of downcycling includes the use of plastic components.
Giving products a new life is considered a good way to reuse materials and avoid waste. Once downcycled to their full capacity, however, these materials are eventually so degraded that they cannot be reused further. Since downcycled products are considered of lower quality than their original form, they cannot be used in remaking their original product.
48 Plastic, glass, and aluminium products coded with the number one may be remade into something of equal or greater value. This type of recycling is known as upcycling, and represents the forward compatibility of recycled components. Materials available for downcycling, such as water, juice, and milk bottles, are coded with the number two. 49
Items available for downcycling often require additional chemicals, energy, and other treatments in order to transform them into something usable. Durable plastic products in particular require much additional treatment. Trash bins, tables, and chairs are also considered materials with a high energy cost to recycle.
When a product reaches a code seven, it is considered no longer recyclable. 50 Since these products can no longer be made into new ones, they will either have to be reused or discarded, typically in a landfill.
A.These recycled materials may often be put into new use.
B.It can include varying grades of plastic, paper products, and other materials.
C.Their recycled form is typically both weaker and cheaper than their original one.
D.They may not be used to contain food-grade items again upon being downcycled.
E ? Products are provided with codes to determine t heir grades and whether or not they may be
recycled.
F. A code will determine the type of the recycled materials and give an idea of how many times
they can be recycled.
G.This usually occurs when a substance is blended with other substances, such as different types of
plastic with various recycling codes.

Possible version 1:
Last weekend, an unexpected concert at the balcony made my day.
On Sunday afternoon, when I was taking a break from my schoolwork, a clear melody flowed in from the outside. It magically refreshed my tired mind and aroused my curiosity.
Hoping to find its source, I went to the balcony. A young man was playing his violin on the balcony across from mine, his eyes half closed in full enjoyment of the tune. Amazed by his playing, I listened on and was absorbed.
Unexpectedly, to the melody of the violin was added a wonderful chord of guitar from another neighbor. At this scene, I couldn’t help singing along and was surprised when a girl also joined with her pure voice of a child. We hardly knew one another, but in our perfect harmony, we felt like old friends connected by our shared love of music. Our little concert went on and on, fascinating the whole community.
With a closing chord on the guitar, the concert ended. We smiled and waved to each other as if we had just woken up from a sweet dream of music. Our shared memory of the concert at the balcony would not fade away, from which I felt the power of music to inspire and connect people. (213 words)
Possible version 2:
Last weekend, a special concert took place in my neighborhood. The uplifting music and heartwarming neighborliness kept resonating in my mind.
Last Saturday afternoon, I was bored at home doing homework when a piece of beautiful music flowed into my room and refreshed me immediately. Since the outbreak of the virus, everything has gone virtual, so I hurried to my balcony to check it out.
The melody led me to locate the violinist in seconds: a teenage boy playing My Motherland and I on his balcony. Although it was not perfect, the organic sound of the violin and his deep affection stunned me. I was lost in his music. Before I realized it, a guitar joined! The guitar from a young lady downstairs gave the music a more lively tone. I couldn’t help humming the familiar tune wh en I suddenly heard someone singing clearly and cheerfully. There was another girl volunteering as the vocalist of this mini band! Inspired by all of them, I started singing loudly. The four of us staged a live balcony concert as if on a stage with audience!
When the concert came t o an end, we applauded each other’s wonderful performance and waved at each other enthusiastically. “Take care!” “Looking forward to the next performance!” were echoing in the community.
As the whole nation and even the whole world were struggling to get used to life with restrictions while fighting against the virus, lots of fabulous ideas were produced to boost people’s morale. This heartening balcony concert in my neighborhood truly entertained me and rallied the optimistic spirit. (263)
