Rupert Isaacson was born in Africa, and grew up in London and in the English countryside, where he discovered his love of horses.

By the year 2000, Rupert was already working as a reporter, writing articles and guidebooks about Africa and India. He met his wife Kristin in India. Today, they live with their son, Rowan in the US.

There are many ways to travel within a city. We can walk, cycle, or take a bus. But no matter which way we travel, we have to stick to the route(线路) the city planners laid down for us. Parkour practitioners (跑酷爱好者), however, see the city in a completely different way. To them, there are no fixed routes. There are no walls and no stairs—since they jump, climb, roll and crawl to move across, through, over and under anything that they find in their path. The city is their playground. The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) has noticed that this activity is drawing more and more people to it—there are 100,000 people taking part in parkour today in the UK alone, according to the Guardian—and how it is helpful for people to be much stronger: It trains coordination and balance. So the organization is thinking about recognizing parkour as a new sport and adding it to the Olympics by 2024. But parkour practitioners themselves don’t seem to be happy with the idea. They see parkour as “a lifestyle”, wrote the website NextSportStar. “It’s a competition against the conditions rather than just a sport.” Indeed, many do parkour just to “escape the daily routine and experience the city in different ways”, wrote reporter Oli Mould on The Conversation. They see parkour as a way to express themselves through relaxing moves and creative routes while freeing themselves from the pressure. It’s great that the FIG wants to develop new sport and stay close to a new cultural form. But it would be greater if they knew that not everything in life is a competition. 【1】How do the parkour practitioners do parkour? A.They move on as they wish. B.They plan the way themselves. C.They run faster than others. D.They stick to certain routes. 【2】Why does the FIG want to add parkour to the Olympics? A.It’s a special way of life. B.It draws their attention. C.It’s good for people to keep healthy. D.It needs some rules and instructions. 【3】What is the author’s idea on parkour? A.It is more formal than other sports. B.It helps people to be creative. C.It’s worth adding to the sporting event. D.It calls on people to work as a team. 【4】What is the best title for the passage? A.A new sports competition B.Parkour practitioners C.Training in a different way D.Making the city their own |

What’s a spacewalk? Any time an astronaut gets out of a spacecraft while in space, it is called a spacewalk. Astronauts go on spacewalks for many reasons. For example, experiments can be placed on the outside of a spacecraft. This lets scientists learn how being in space affects different things. By going on spacewalks, astronauts can also fix certain things instead of bringing them back to the earth to fix. When astronauts go on spacewalks, they wear spacesuits to keep themselves safe. Inside spacesuits, astronauts have the oxygen they need to breathe and the water they need to drink. To keep the astronauts and the spacecraft safe, the astronauts must leave and go back to the spacecraft through a special door. When on a spacewalk, astronauts use safety tethers to stay close to their spacecraft, which connect the spacewalkers with the spacecraft. They keep astronauts from floating away into space. Another way astronauts stay safe during spacewalks is by wearing a SAFER. SAFER is worn like a backpack. It helps an astronaut move around in space. How do astronauts train for spacewalks? One way is by going for a swim. Floating in space is a lot like floating in water. Astronauts practice spacewalks underwater in a huge special swimming pool. For every one hour they will spend on a spacewalk, astronauts need to train seven hours in the pool. Another way astronauts practice for a spacewalk is by using virtual reality(虚拟视镜). It looks and feels just like a spacewalk. Today, only three countries have finished spacewalks independently. They are Russia, the United States and China. The first person to go on a spacewalk in the world was Alexei Leonov from Russia. Zhai Zhigang is the first Chinese astronaut to go on a spacewalk. The world record of spacewalks is held by Russian astronaut Anatoly Solovyev. He has been on 16 spacewalks and spent more than 82 hours outside in space. 【1】What can an astronaut do by going on a spacewalk? A.Fix different objects. B.Collect any things he wants. C.Carry out an experiment. D.Study how things changes in space. 【2】What does the underlined word “tethers” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Special ropes. B.Spacesuits. C.Spacecraft. D.Special backpacks. 【3】What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A.Walking in space is as easy as going swimming. B.A virtual reality should be used in a spacewalk. C.Only three countries have ever tried spacewalks. D.Russia keeps the world record of spacewalks. 【4】Where is this passage most likely from? A.A diary. B.A magazine. C.A novel. D.A guidebook. |

In China, traveling by train is a common way to visit new places and go back to one’s hometown during holidays.【1】 It wasn’t always that way, though. 【2】 Later, many railway companies started up and competed with each other to build new railway routes. Trains became a symbol of progress, with New York City’s Grand Central Station becoming a major cultural landmark(地标).【3】 For example, Johnny Cash wrote a song called Folsom Prison Blues. But little by little, railways were replaced by highways as “car culture” took over the US. China would go on to use trains even more widely than the US. 【4】It allows people to travel fast with ease. This is especially obvious during Chunyun, when China’s train stations are crowded with thousands of people who are trying to get home. I had never traveled by train until I moved to China. My first trip by train was from Beijing to Tianjin by high-speed train. It was amazing how quickly I could get there-just half an hour. Since then, I’ve taken the train to lots of other cities—Shanghai, Chongqing and Shenzhen. It’s always a good time. 【5】 And for some reason, even instant noodles taste better on the train than they do anywhere else. A.Musicians even created music works about trains. B.The US railway system started to grow in 1826. C.People on the train tend to be friendly and happy to chat. D.China’s railway network connects the entire country. E.But in the US, traveling by train is a very old tradition. F.But there are many differences between Chinese and US railways. G.Traveling on a high-speed train costs more than traveling on a normal train. |

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个单词或括号内所给单词的正确形式。 The use of chopsticks has been【1】big part of Chinese food culture for centuries. When cooking food or picking it up, a pair of chopsticks always comes for use. So how did chopsticks come into being? It’s said that a leader of ancient China, Dayu, 【2】 helped his people fight floods, invented them. In those days, people 【3】(eat) only with their hands. But Dayu was busy 【4】 (prepare) for flood control work and often had his meals in the wild. In the summer【5】 particular, he hurried to deal with unexpected accidents and didn’t want to wait to eat. The meat 【6】(cook) in the pot was too hot to pick up with his hands. So one day Dayu picked up some twigs(细枝)【7】(help) him hold the meat. Then the twigs【8】(final) became the chopsticks we know today. But of course, this is just a story. The【9】(early) chopsticks archaeologists(考古学家) have found so far are more than 3,000 years old, dating back to the Shang Dynasty. The six bronze chopsticks were found in Yinxu, one of China’s oldest archaeological【10】(place), in Anyang, Henan province. |
