Football, as it often is, became an escape.At seven, she was spotted by coach Xu Yilong, who found Wang quick in her playful behaviour. As the o
9、nly girl in the boys team, Wangs performances were impressive, earning her the nickname “Iron Girl. ” And soon, she sensed the sports power. Football allowed her to “release herself and realize “whatever happens, football never leaves you alone. ”However, life was never smooth sailing. The constant
10、jibes(嘲讽)from some people, who always tried to push her down and destroy her hopes, affected her so deeply that she lost confidence. “They were saying I had no talent at all. Gradually, I felt really so. ”Wang once wrote. But never did she stop playing. When she was called up to the national team, a
11、ged 17, Wang thought, “Me? Are you sure?” When a world-famous club wanted to sign her, she was “excited that an excellent coach thought I was good. ” It was only then that she felt confident in her abilities. “I felt recognized. Perhaps I had a bit of talent after all. ”Not any “bit of talent”; the
12、genius is praised as Chinas once-in-a-generation player.China is a pioneer of womens football in Asia and has won the continental championship eight times, including seven straight titles between 1986 and 1999.

17、sC. WangShuang: A Football PioneerD. Wang Shuang: A Golden Age CreatorCEndangered polar bears are breeding (繁殖) with grizzly bears (灰熊), creating “pizzly” bears, which is being driven by climate change, scientists say.As the world warms and Arctic sea ice thins, starving polar bears are being forced
18、 ever further south, where they meet grizzlies, whose ranges are expanding northwards. And with that growing contact between the two come increasing hybrids (杂交种).With characteristics that could give the hybrids an advantage in warming northern habitats, some scientists guess that they could be here
19、 to stay. “Usually, hybrids arent better suited to their environments than their parents, but these hybrids are able to search for a broader range of food sources, ” Larisa DeSantis, an associate professor of biological sciences at Vanderbilt University, told Live Science.The rise of “pizzly” bears
20、appears with polar bears decline: their numbers are estimated to decrease by more than 30% in the next 30 years. This sudden fall is linked partly to “pizzly” bears taking up polar bears ranges, where they outcompete them, but also to polar bears highly specialized diets.“Polar bears mainly consumed
21、 soft foods even during the Medieval Warm Period, a previous period of rapid warming, ” DeSantis said, referring to fat meals such as seals. “Although all of these starving polar bears are trying to find alternative food sources, like seabird eggs, it could be a tipping point for their survival. ” A
22、ctually, the calories they gain from these sources do not balance out those they burn from searching for them. This could result in a habitat ready for the hybrids to move in and take over, leading to a loss in biodiversity if polar bears are replaced.“Were having massive impacts with climate change
23、 on species, ” DeSantis said. “The polar bear is telling us how bad things are. In some sense, “pizzly” bears could be a sad but necessary compromise given current warming trends. ”8. Why do polar bears move further south?A. To create hybrids.B. To expand territory.C. To relieve hunger.D. To contact

26、al warming.DThe rechargeable lithium-ion (锂离子) battery market is worth more than 50 billion. Lithium-ion batteries, whose demand continues to go up day by day, are used in a wide range of electronic devices. They are made of four main components, and cathode (阴极) is one of them. The cathodes active
27、material type is what determines the capacity of a battery.A recent study, led by Wang Yan, a material scientist of Worcester Polytechnic Institute, finds that lithium-ion batteries made with recycled cathodes work better than those with new cathodes.“The battery industry is expected to grow sharply
28、 in the next decade. This high demand has led companies to go to extremes, like increasing deep-sea mining, to gain access to the minerals used in lithium-ion batteries, ” Wang said. “Mining minerals will have environmental impacts. Recycling spent lithium-ion batteries offers a way out. ”But until
29、now, the prospect of using recycled materials in lithium-ion batteries has some manufacturers (制造商) worrying that it could impact performance. Thus, lithium-ion batteries are still not widely recycled. Aware of decreasing resources and environmental impact, Wang and other researchers set out to find
30、 a way to make recycling lithium-ion batteries economically practical. Through experiments, they could recover more than 90% of the key metals from spent batteries. These recovered metals became the basis of the new recycled batterys cathodes active material.In tests between Wangs teams recycled bat
31、teries and brand-new batteries of the same composition, the recycled batteries outperform the new ones in their ability to maintain capacity. It took 11, 600 charge cycles for recycled cathode batteries to lose 30 percent of their original capacity. That was about 50 percent better than the 7, 600 o
32、bserved cycles for new cathode batteries, the team reported. Those thousands of extra cycles could translate into years of better battery performance, even after repeated use and recharging.12. What can we learn about lithium-ion batteries from the first paragraph?A. They are high in price.B. They a
33、re in great demand.C. They are limited in use.D. They are simple in composition.13. What does Wang mainly talk about in paragraph 3?A. The target users of recycled batteries.B. The ways to get minerals for batteries.C. The major reasons for recycling batteries.D. The complex process of recycling bat
34、teries.14. What are the manufacturers concerned about?A. Declining mineral resources.B. Difficult recycling techniques.C. Serious environmental problems.D. Inefficient battery performance.15. Which of the following details best supports the main idea of the text?A. The battery industry is going to d
35、evelop dramatically.B. Recycling batteries reduces impact on the environment.C. Scientists can recover key materials from spent batteries.D. Recycled batteries outperform new ones in charging circles.第二节(共5小题；每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Career coaches provide a seri
