9、er Games.C The city of Lake Placid.DCultural exchange and entertainment programs.BI had only swum in open water a few times, and always in gentle lakes, so I wasnt prepared for how rough Lake Windermere appeared on a cold day. A swimmer told me the water felt colder than it had been measured, and th
10、at the water was a bit rough. But I, along with 10,000 others, was about to complete the challenge.Most of the people taking part were doing a one-mile race, and 10 races were planned over the weekend. There seemed to be a mix of open-water enthusiasts alongside complete beginnerswhich is precisely
11、the aim of the swims, to get as many people as possible completing their own challenge. The oldest woman competing was 77, taking part in the two-mile race, alongside a man who last year had swum in every one-mile race.I had chosen the third one-mile race of the day. There were over 600 people in my
12、 race. We were taken through an acclimatization area, a childrens paddling pool-sized part of the lake where we moved in to feel how cold the water was. “Not too bad” was everyones thought! Then we headed out towards the middle of the lake.Wed been warned that the first 100 metres would be really ro
13、ugh. However, somewhere near the 750m mark I was still waiting for the calm; it felt more like swimming in the sea than a lake. I tried to focus on my breathing and technique, and just keep going. As I approached the 400m-to-go mark my lower right leg became painful. I recalled overhearing people ta
14、lking about how they kept swimming through the pain, so I tried. But it didnt work. I began to feel the entire leg tight and painful. I didnt want to stop, so I bent my right knee and just kicked with the left leg.Finally I saw the finishing post, and I just concentrated on getting therestill one-le
15、gged. My finishing time was 38 minutes 25 seconds but that didnt matterthe atmosphere was fantastic and everyone felt a sense of achievement, whatever their time. Im hooked, and want to give it another go. Ive already signed up for my next open-water swim.24 How did the author feel before the race?A
16、Scared of the most challenging race.BDisappointed by the difficult conditions.C Concerned about the other swimmers in the race.DDetermined to be as tough as the people around her.25 Why does the author mention the two people in Paragraph 2?ATo stress the importance of the race.BTo praise the experie
17、nced swimmers.C To show the wide range of the participants.DTo introduce the various events of the race.26 The author suggests in Paragraph 4 that _.Athe race would cause breathing problemsBthe race became harder than she had expectedC it was really necessary to prepare for tough swimsDit would have
18、 been easier if she had taken others advice27 What does the author talk about in the last paragraph?AHer confidence in her own ability.BHer pride in having swum so quickly.C Her eagerness to repeat the experience.DHer surprise at having managed to finish.CImagine walking through an ancient city, the
19、n climbing a gate tower to take in a wonderful view of the city and its more than 600-year-old walls. You can hear the citys heartbeat in the air. This is Pingyao Ancient City in Shanxi Province, a place that should definitely be on your travel route if you enjoy history or ancient architecture sinc
20、e its origins can be traced back to more than 2,700 years ago.Located in the center of Shanxi Province, Pingyao is the hometown of Jin merchants, a group of merchants who actively dominated (支配） a booming commodity market throughout China for more than 500 years, especially during the Ming and Qing
21、dynasties. After the founding of the Peoples Republic of China in 1949, the citys agriculture and manufacturing industries developed rapidly. Following Chinas reform and opening up, Pingyao struggled for the transition from a managed economy to the current market-oriented economy. During this time,
22、the city government sought out new ways to break through this economic bottleneck.Finally in the winter of 1997, opportunity came knocking. Through the efforts of the city government, Pingyao earned its place on the UNESCO World Heritage list, which caused the entire world to take notice of the city
23、.Since the citys fame rose, locals in Pingyao have deepened their understanding of the conservation efforts preserving the historical relics in their hometown. Meanwhile the city administration has continued to upgrade itself through a strategy that follows the pillars of “conservation, entrepreneur
24、ship, development and protection“.Currently, the city is focused on establishing a sustainable industry that will enable it to continue to grow while also protecting its relics and introducing them to the world.28 What does the underlined word “transition“ in Paragraph 2 probably mean?AExploration.
25、BSpread.C Application. DChange.29 What contributed to Pingyaos popularity around the world?AThe city governments hard work.BThe official recognition by the UNESCO.C The development of Pingyaos economy.DThe ancient architecture in the city.30 What measure is taken to further develop the city?ACombini

27、on?” asked Kenneth Clark 50 years ago in the influential BBC series on the subject. “I dont know, and I cant define it in abstract terms, yet. But I think I can recognize it when I see it, and Im looking at it now.” And he turned to gesture behind him, at the soaring Gothic towers and flying buttres
28、ses of Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院).It seems inhuman to care more about a building than about people. That the sight of Notre Dame going up in flames has attracted so much more attention than floods in southern Africa which killed over 1,000 arouses understandable feelings of guilt. Yet the widespread, intens
29、e grief at the sight of the cathedrals collapsing steeple (尖塔) is in fact profoundly humanand in a particularly 21st-century way.It is not just the economy that is global today, it is culture too. People wander the world in search not just of jobs and security but also of beauty and history. Familia
30、rity breeds affection. A building on whose sunny steps you have rested, in front of which you have taken a selfie with your loved one, becomes a warm part of your memories and thus of yourself.This visual age has given beauty new power, and social media have turned great works of art into superstars
31、. Only a few, though, have achieved this status. Just as there is only ever a handful of world-famous actors, so the pantheon (万神殿 ) of globally recognizable cultural symbols is tiny: the Mona Lisa, Michelangelos David, the Taj Mahal, the Great Pyramid and Notre Dame. Disaster, too, is visual. In th
32、e 24 hours after the fire started, videos on social media of the burning cathedral were viewed nearly a quarter of a billion times.Yet the emotions the sight aroused were less about the building itself than about what losing it might mean. Notre Dame is an expression of humanity at its collective be
33、st. Nobody could look up into that arched (拱形的) ceiling without wondering at the collective genius of the thousands of unknown craftsmen who, over a century and a half, realized a vision so grand in its structural ambition and so delicate in its hand-made detail. Its survival through 850 years of po
34、litical unrestthrough war, revolution and Nazi occupationbinds the present to the past.32 The BBC series in the first paragraph is mentioned to show _.ANotre Dame is a typical example of civilizationBcivilization is supposed to be defined in abstract termsC civilization was founded in the past and l
35、asts for decadesDits cruel to care more about buildings than about people33 Notre Dame fire has aroused worldwide concerns because _.Athe disaster coincided with the floods in southern AfricaBpeople has lost a historical landmark to take a selfie and restC Frances economic prosperity has made it a m
36、ust-see place for visitorsDcultural globalization has bred a common sense of cultural identity34 What can we learn from the last paragraph?APeoples sadness at the misfortune mainly lies in the building itself.BPeople wondered who contributed to such an artistic achievement.C Notre Dame is a witness
37、to Nazi invasion and French revolution.DFortunately we are blessed with countless splendid works of art.35 What might be the best title for the passage?ANotre Dame: The Architectural TreasureBNotre Dame: The Humanistic ExpressionC Notre Dame: A Victim To Natural DisasterDNotre Dame: A Must-be Touris

39、 that they are enjoying themselves and, though I cant swim like a dolphin, 36 .Bodysurfing involves riding on a wave with no help from any device(装置)such as a surfboard, which makes it the “purest” form of surfing. In fact, it is one of very few extreme sports-free climbing and cliff diving are othe

You must try to travel at the same speed as the wave and, if you do it correctly, you will feel the wave lifting you and pushing you forwards. 39 .Bodysurfing is not a professional sport,
