Raised in a fatherless home, my father was extremely tightfisted towards us children. His
attitude didn’t soften as I grew into adulthood and drifted away to college. I had to ride the bus
whenever I came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met
me, even in cold weather. If I grumbled ( 嘟 囔 ), he’d say in his loudest father voice, “That’s
what your legs are for!”
The walk didn’t bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and
country roads. I also felt less than valued that my father didn’t seem concerned about my safety.
That feeling was canceled one spring evening.
It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. I longed for
home. When the bus reached a stop, I stepped off and dragged my suitcase to begin the long
journey home.
A row of hedge (篱笆) edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. Once I had
turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I was always relieved to see the
hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just
come into view when I saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge, moving toward
the house. Upon closer observation, I realized it was the top of my father’s head. Then I knew,
each time I’d come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived
safely. I swallowed hard against the threatening tears. He did care, after all.
On later visits, that spot of gray became my watchtower. I could hardly wait until I was
close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery. Upon reaching home, I
would find my father sitting innocently in his chair. “So! My son, it’s you!” he’d say, his face
lengthening into pretended surprise.
I replied, “Yes, Dad, it’s me. I’m home.”
24. What did the author think of the two-mile walk home?
A. It reflected his value.
B. It was the most troublesome.
C. It wasn’t ranked number one in his concerns.
D. It was extremely unbearable in cold weathers.
25. How did the author feel when he saw the hedge?
A. Disappointed. B. Hopeful. C. Frustrated. D. Regretful.
26. Why did the author’s father watch behind the hedge?
A. The author often changed routes back home.
B. He wanted to help the author build up courage.
C. He was really concerned about his son’s safety.
D. That was the only way he could express his love.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Father’s Secret. B. My Childhood Life.
C. Terrible Journey Home. D. Riding Bus Alone.
C
Were you to join a marathon, you might think you’d wander into a nightmare. Mouths
kept shut, runners cover miles breathing just through their noses—sometimes holding their
breath for quite a while.
Beyond adopting a new technique, marathon runners can expect to see an improvement by
reviewing on the breathing basics. Studies suggest that 10 percent to 14 percent of women are
shallow breathers, over-breathers or mouth-breathers, all of which could restrict movement of
the ribcage (胸腔) and create a build-up of tension in the upper body and tightness in the chest.
And while this may not bother you when you’re sitting at your desk, it’s a different story when
you begin a workout. The biggest mistake that Professor Dickinson sees is when athletes want
to maintain-or pick up- speed. “When you’re working harder, you don’t tell your heart to beat
faster. It just knows that it needs to,” he says, adding that the same is true of your breathing. He
explains that your body is built with neurons called chemoreceptors, which tell your muscles
when they need to breathe more.
So how should you be breathing during an intense workout? Professor Dickinson
recommends athletes take basic breath pattern mastery, before moving on to respiratory muscle
(呼吸肌) training.
“Some people accept that the breathlessness they experience when exercising is just their
norms and that they’ve reached the limit they can push themselves to in their workouts,” says
Professor Dickinson. But committing to these techniques, he explains, could be impactful on
your performance. However, those who have high blood pressure, should check their
conditions before getting to work on their breath. “In some cases, it could be that you’re only
breathing at 80 percent of your capacity, so increasing that percentage by practicing breathing
exercises can have a huge impact on your fitness performance,” Professor Dickinson adds. The
results just might be breathtaking.
28. Why does the author compare a marathon to a nightmare?
A. Because they are both long in distance.
B. Because they are both time-consuming.
C. Because people in both situations need a new technique.
D. Because people in both situations breathe in similar ways.
29. According to Professor Dickinson, what will happen when you’re working out harder?
A. You will make the biggest mistake.
B. You will adjust your heartbeat intentionally.
C. Neurons will tell your muscles to breathe more.
D. The heart will know it needs to work.
30. What should high blood pressure patients do before working on their breath?
A. Have a health check. B. Make a workout plan.
C. Track their performances. D. Check their blood pressure meters.
31. Who is the passage intended for?
A. People with high blood pressure. B. Marathon enthusiasts.
C. Office ladies. D. Health consultants.
D
Travellers arriving at or leaving from Stuttgart’s main railway station should be warned.
They must allow an extra 10-15 minutes to get out of the building or get to the platforms to
catch a train, because of an ugly maze of detours ( 绕 路 ) around Germany’s biggest
construction site. “It has been like this since I was at school 13 years ago,” shrugs the barista at
a nearby coffee shop.
The ambitious plan for a new station in the capital of Baden-Wrttemberg, one of
Germany’s most prosperous states and home to Daimler-Benz, Bosch and Porsche, was to be
an advertisement for the state’s engineering prowess. By relocating tracks and platforms largely
underground, it was supposed to speed up journeys to other places in Germany and all over
Europe, while reclaiming (开拓) space for shops, housing and parkland in the centre of town.
The city picked a design by Christoph Ingenhoven, a cool modernist architect from Dsseldorf,
and the late Frei Otto, winner of the prestigious Pritzker prize for architecture.
But its fate has been similar to that of Berlin’s new airport, which was completed after a
nine-year delay in 2020, having exceeded its budget by more than 4bn ($4.7bn). “Stuttgart 21”
(named for the 21st century) was meant to be completed by the end of 2019 at a cost of
4.5bn. It is now forecast to be finished by 2025, and the cost may rise to nearly 12bn. The
mega-site currently employs some 6,000 construction workers, who even have their own priest,
Peter Maile, to provide (much-needed) pastoral care. The bosses of Deutsche Bahn may need
the consolation of religion too. The loss-making German railway operator is in court, fighting
the state, city, region and airport over who will cover Stuttgart 21’s exorbitant additional costs.
For some, Stuttgart 21 remains an awesome engineering masterpiece in the making; for
others it is a bottomless pit wasting more and more taxpayers’ cash. In June the station could
have celebrated the topping-out ceremony of its main building. Oddly enough, no one felt
much like an underground party, or indeed any party at all.
32. What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the text?
A. Security checks at the station are very strict.
B. Trains in Stuttgart are often about ten minutes late.
C. Cafes near the station are very popular with travellers.
D. The construction of the station has presented inconvenience.
33. Why does the author mention Berlin’s new airport in paragraph 3?
A. To emphasize the urgent need for the new airport.
B. To explain the potential function of the new station.
C. To stress the additional large price of the new station.
D. To introduce the outstanding designers of the new airport.
34. What do the underlined words “consolation” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Punishment. B. Comfort. C. Influence. D. Memory.
35. What is the author’s attitude toward the new station?
A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Approving. D. Unclear.

Many people desire stronger, more authentic friendships as an adult. 36 . How do
you skip the awkward chit-chat phase and hit the fast-forward button on a potential friendship?
I’ve learned a few things.
Give yourself permission to bore people
We all know the safe topics to broach ( 引 入 ) when you first meet someone. But this
tendency to play it safe can delay knowing whether you are compatible (志趣相投的) with a
potential friend. 37 . “What do you think is the best television finale of all time?” This
is a great conversation starter as long as it interests you. And if the other person slowly backs
away, then you’ve just saved yourself hours of chatting.
38
Often our friendships feel superficial because they are built on a foundation of gossip.
This is because it’s human nature to focus on a third person when we are anxious. We share
spicy updates about former classmates with our high school friends, or grab a drink with
colleagues and complain about the boss. But a friendship built on gossip can leave both people
feeling exhausted and depressed after they hang out.
If a friend starts to give you updates on other people you know, it can be helpful to say, “I
want to hear about what’s going on with you.” Or you can ask yourself, “What would I share
about myself if I were with my best friend right now?” 39 .
Be curious about who people are, and who they want to be
40 . They are also able to share their struggles without fear of judgment. A great
way to deepen a friendship is to ask someone, “What has been challenging for you the last
year?” Or “What’s a belief you have that has changed over the course of your life?” These are
questions we rarely ask each other, but they reveal so much about who we are, and who we’re
trying to be.
A. Focus on the gossip
B. Cut back on the gossip
C. Then jump to the heart of things
D. Rather than sticking with superficial chatter, go straight to what excites you
E. True friends strive to know each other’s thinking about difficult subjects
F. But the process of building these relationships can prove slow and frustrating
G. Ask yourself what’s worth sharing about yourself and knowing about others

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I remember a time when I learned the true meaning of forgiveness. It was a period in my
life that tested my patience and my ability to understand others.
It all started when I was in middle school. I had a close friend named Emily, and we spent
a lot of time together. One day, Emily introduced me to a new girl in our class, named Olivia.
Olivia was quiet and shy, but we quickly became friends as well.
One afternoon, after school, we were all working on a project in the classroom. As we
were discussing our ideas, Olivia suddenly exclaimed out something that completely
contradicted what I had been saying. I was shocked and felt a little embarrassed. I tried to
explain my point of view, but Olivia was very stubborn and insisted on her own idea.
Emily, who was sitting next to me, tried to mediate ( 调 节 ) the situation. But Olivia got
angry and said some unkind words to me. I was hurt and angry, and I couldn’t believe that
Olivia would treat me like that. I stormed out of the classroom, leaving Emily and Olivia
behind.
The next few days were very difficult for me. I avoided Olivia as much as possible, and
our friendship with Emily seemed to be stressed. I felt like I had been betrayed by Olivia, and I
couldn’t understand why she would do such a thing.
One day, I asked Emily why she was still friends with Olivia after what she had done.
Emily looked at me with a sad expression and said, “You know, Olivia has been through a lot
lately. Her parents are going through a divorce, and she’s really struggling. Maybe she was rude
to you because she was feeling overwhelmed and insecure.”
Hearing this, I felt a surge of guilt. I realized that I hadn’t taken the time to understand
Olivia’s situation. I had been too quick to judge her and too focused on my own feelings of hurt.
I decided to talk to Olivia and apologize for my behavior.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为 150 个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When I found Olivia, she was sitting alone in the hallway.
Olivia accepted my apology and we had a long conversation.
