The event on Saturday in Mains was one of several officially qualifying competitions for international championships in Finland, with the others held in Australia, Sweden and Estonia.Nearly every team employed the "Estonian carry" , in which the woman hangs the head down with her legs hooked around the man's neck and her arms around his waist, which fries his hands.

In July last year, the six-time speed reading champion Anne Jones sat down to read Harper Lee's Go Set a Watchman. Just 25 minutes and 31 seconds later, she finished it-which equals a reading rate of around 3, 700 words per minute. Jones runs training coursed teaching speed reading, recall and concentration technique and there are numerous speed reading alps that have appeared on the market over the past few years. But do they actually work?First, we need to understand how we read. The human eye movement system is central to our reading ability. Read over that sentence again, and think about how your eyes scan across the words. They don't move smoothly over them. Instead, they make a series of short, sharp jumps, skipping over a few characters before briefly landing on a word. The movements are known as saccades（扫视）and the paused are called fixations.“Reading isn't just about seeing the words-you need to comprehend them to build up a picture about what the text means. People are able to get through a block of text faster, but at the cost of accuracy and understanding. In other words, if you use a speed reading app, then you'll probably get the gist（主旨）of a piece of text, but you'll struggle to recall details about what you've just read.So, does speed reading work? Well, yes and no. It really depends on what you're reading and why you need to read it. As yet, there isn't a trick that enabled you to read a piece of text both quickly and accurately-there's always going to be a TAL#NBSP trade-off.(1) What's the main idea of the passage?A. Speed reading is bad at times.B. Speed reading is a waste of time.C. Speed reading can work sometimes.D. Speed reading is always enjoyable.(2) What can we know from the passage?A. Reading alps ensure we read much faster.B. Fast reading makes us learn more knowledge.C. Reading is no more than seeing the text words.D. Reading ability is related to the eye movement system.(3) What does the underlined word "trade-off" most probably mean in the last paragraph?A. Balance.B. Change.C. Business.D. Bargain.(4) What might the writer continue to talk about?A. The advantaged of faster or slower reading.B. The reasons why to do faster or slower reading.C. The cases where to do faster and slower reading.D. The methods for making use of faster or slower reading.3、【来源】 2019年重庆高三一模（C篇）第28~31题8分(每题2分)A shirt, tie and blazed may not be my favorite, but if I were given the choice, I wouldn't throw away the idea of school uniform. Wearing a uniform is a badge of pride, created an identity for a school and is an important part of being a school student.My school is one of many that seem to be shifting to a more formal uniform-this September I will be wearing a shirt and blazed instead of my old jumper and polo shirt. A number of students have complained about the change, but some people believe that a school uniform can improve learning by reducing distraction, sharpening focus on schoolwork and making the classroom a more serious environment, allowing students to perform better academically. Perhaps most importantly, a uniform means students don't have to worry about peer pressure when it comes to their clothes. When everyone is dressed the same, worrying about what you look like isn't so important. There is no competition about being dressed in the latest trend, which would put a great deal of financial pressure on students and parents. Potential bullies have one less target for their insults; it's hard to make fun of what someone is wearing when you're dressed exactly the same.In America, where a majority of schools do not have a uniform, roughly 160, 000 children miss school every day due to fear of attack or intimidation by other students. This might not be directly linked to what they're wearing, but having a uniform can be a safety net for many students who might otherwise suffer from bullying. A uniform gives the impression that rules are strict, perhaps helping maintain a sense of order at school.My uniform might not be what I would wear in my own time, but it gives me a sense of belonging, takes away the pressure of what to wear and stops the bullies. School uniform isn't fashionable, but that's exactly why I think it should be here to stay.(1) Why does the writer mention American children without uniforms in the passage?A. To show pity for American kids.B. To raise the government's attention.C. To prove the benefits of school uniform.D. To inform readers of American kids' uniforms.(2) What is the writer's attitude towards school uniforms?A. Disapproving.B. Confused.C. Suspicious.D. Favorable.(3) Which is the advantage of wearing school uniforms for school kids?A. It sharpens concentration on outdoor tasks.B. It removes the teachers' financial pressure.C. It satisfies students' dressing tastes and favorites.D. It helps students maintain a sense of order at school.(4) What is the best title for the passage?A. My Cool School UniformB. The Point of School UniformC. The Idea of Dressing ProperlyD. The Way of Guarding Kids' Safety4、【来源】 2019年重庆高三一模（D篇）第32~35题8分(每题2分)Roberto Clemente is the greatest baseball player of all time.
