Let's hope that the last runner is fast!" He laughed.Soon the front runners started to disappear, and I saw a woman in a white T-shirt." Bob, look!"We knew we were already watching our " last runner". She was different from the others because of her age." I think she is over 60, too old for any sports match. How can she finish a marathon?" Bob said.We watched in silence as she slowly moved forward. We would move forward a little, then stop and wait for her. Then we would move a little bit more.As I watched her try to put one foot in front of the other. I found my heart beating for her. I wanted her to stop, but at the same time, I hopped that she wouldn't.Soon she was the only runner that we could see. Tears ran down my face. She was so great! For her, it wasn't about beating the other runners or winning something; it was about finishing what she had decided to do.Later in my life, when I think things are too difficult, I will think of the woman-the last runner.By the way, she did make it to the finish line that day, when the other runners and the cheering crowds had long gone home.63.According to the passage, what do you think the author might be?A.

The last runnerEEnglish teenagers will receive cooking lessons in schools. The idea is to encourage healthy eating to solve the problem that many people are overweight. Also, it worries people that basic cooking and food preparation skills are being lost because parents use too much pre-prepared fast foods.Cooking was once regarded as an important part of eduction in England-even if it was mainly for girls. In recent years cooking has become less important in schools. But the rising level ofobesity(肥胖) has led to a rethink about the food that children are given and the skills they should be taught." What we want is to teach young people how to do basic,simple meals, which they can use now at home and then in their later life," said Ed Balls, an education expert.The new lessons will start in September, but some schools without kitchen will be given a longer time to prepare. Also there may be a shortage of teachers with the right skills, since schools have been teaching food technology rather than practical cooking. Besides, the lessons for hands-on cooking will only be one hour a week for one term. But the well-known cookery writer, Pru Leith, believe it will be worth it." If we'd done this thirsty years ago we might not have to face the problem about obesity and lack of knowledge about food and so on. Every child should know how to cook, not just so that they'll be healthy, but because it's a life skill which is a real pleasure."The renewed interest in cooking is an effort to reduce the obesity rate, which is almost the highest in Europe, and according to the government, half of all British people will be obese in 25 years if present trends(趋势) are not halted.67.Which of the following is Not the aim of bringing back cooking lessons in Britain?A. To encourage teenagers to eat healthy food.B. To reduce the country's increasing obesity rate.C. To prevent basic cooking and food preparation skills from being lost.D. To encourage parents to use more pre-prepared fast foods.68.How will cooking lessons do good to the students?A. All of them will become good cooks in their laster life.B. Students will be healthy and enjoy the pleasure of such a life skill as well.C. Students will be able to make food experiments with the knowledge and skills.D. Students will be able to control the level od obesity in the whole country.69.The underlined word "halted" in the last paragraph probably means _____.A.continuedB.stoppedC.discussedD.kept70. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A.cooking has always been an important part of school education in EnglandB.English teenagers will have their cooking lessons one hour a month for one yearC.the obesity rate in Britain has been growing rapidly in recent yearsD.the students will pay much money for their cooking lessons非选择题（共30分）第一部分词语运用（每小题1分，共15分）第一节选词填空从下面方框中选择一个适当的词填空，并将其正确形式写在答题卡上，每空一词，每词只用一次。

The 72-year-old has competed in every triathlon in the event’s 40-year history. He was part of the group that came up with the idea in the 1980s.“I used to jog around town,” Mr. O’Neill said. “I came into contact with an Olympian, David Power, and Dave had a hotel up here. A few of us got together and we discussed it and got it going in October, 1983.”The then 31-year-old suggested one of the group should compete. “Everyone else could either ride a bike or run, but I was the only one who could swim,” he laughed. “But I was happy to give it a go.”In the beginning, more than 220 athletes took part in the event, including 79 individual competitors and 48 teams. These days it’s a five-day festival—which includes 11 events in all—with more than 13,000 competitors.Rebecca van Pooss, head of operations for the triathlon there, said the event Mr. O’Neill helped to start was now an international event. “It is the world’s largest Olympic-distance triathlon,” she said. “That’s something we’re very proud of.”“Mr. O’ Neill’s efforts were inspiring. There are a couple of other athletes who have done 38, 39,” she said. “But Peter, he is the legend (传奇)—it’s pretty amazing to have someone who’s done all 40 of our races.”Mr. O’Neill trains year-round for the event, and enjoys the social side just as much as the physical benefits. “I’ve made so many friends… friends that I ride with and friends I swim with—it’s been wonderful,” he said. “When you’re in your 70s like I am, you’re quite happy to just do it because you know it beats the alternative (替代品), which is sitting around doing nothing.”19．What do the underlined words “give it a go” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Try doing it.B．Cooperate with others.C．Organize the game.D．Go to a friend’s home.20．What can we infer from Rebecca’s words?A．The athletes are mostly in their 30s.B．There are more than 40 events that they can choose.C．The triathlon will be an international event in the future.D．It’s very hard to keep on training and competing for the event.21．What can we know from Mr. O’Neill’s story?A．He is too old to be an athlete.B．He beats “doing nothing”, and becomes a legend.C．He helps many people in his hometown to find jobs.D．He has won many gold medals at the Olympic Games.22．In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A．Fashion and Style.B．School and Education.C．Science and Technology.D．Sports and Fitness.In China, more and more people read at community reading rooms. For example, Luyang district of Hefei has built more than 100 reading rooms in recent years, so people can enjoy the fun of reading at their doorsteps. In the UK, 3,718 libraries provide different kinds of services, including lending out books and offering a free, warm and safe space for people to go to. Some libraries make it easier to borrow books: for example, by delivering books to library users’ doorsteps.Libraries do more than house books. They provide people with other services and tools, such as computers, and create a sense of community. However, many libraries in the UK are at risk of closing because they can’t afford the cost of operating. Library fines (罚款) are carried out when people don’t return books on time.Many people in the UK believe that fines are needed because they help libraries improve services, and prevent people from returning books late. Without fines, people might be more relaxed and many more books could be returned late. After all, some books are so popular that there can be a waiting list for people who want to read it next. Libraries only work if people borrowing books return them on time, ready for other library users to enjoy.However, one third of Britain’s libraries are fine-free now. This means some library users who don’t return books by the date agreed are not charged (收费). Besides, people who don’t have much money really depend on libraries to help them save some money, not spend it. Many libraries have got rid of fines all together, which makes libraries more welcoming environments.So, should libraries stop fining people? See what we find in other countries.23．What is paragraph 1 mainly about?A．Libraries are facing more challenges.B．Libraries are popular with young readers.C．It’s convenient for people to read nowadays.D．It’s not easy to find a place to relax afterwork.24．Why are many libraries in the UK at risk of closing?A．Some people break the library rules.B．They can’t afford the cost of operating.C．They are short of books and computers.D．More community libraries have been built. 25．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．Library fines can be stressful to readers.B．Libraries need money to improve services.C．There are different views on library fines in Britain.D．People prefer reading incommunity reading rooms.26．What might the author continue talking about?A．Library rules in the UK.B．Good reading habits around the UK.C．Designs for libraries in Asia and Europe.D．Facts about library fines in other countries.Classical Chinese gardens are purposely designed so that no matter where you stand, you can never see the whole thing at once. The mystery and the discovery have helped the classical gardens of China, especially those in Suzhou, remain popular attractions after all these years.Put simply, the aim of a classical Chinese garden is to deepen one’s admiration of nature. Besides just relaxing in nature, the classical Chinese gardens have another purpose—to inspire artistic expression like poetry, literature or painting. Nearly all Chinese gardens feature the things in the list below.WaterWater is a necessary thing that no Chinese garden can go without. The water in a garden typically symbolizes a lake or even the ocean. Water can even symbolize communication, movement and dreams.RocksLarge rocks typically symbolize mountains. Many of the rocks in the Suzhou gardens come from Lake Tai, having been shaped by the flow of water over thousands of years. Smaller rocks are often on show in the fancy halls at a garden’s entrance. This shows the appreciation the gardenowners had of these rocks.PlantsYou can’t have a garden without plants. Different plants and flowers are used for either symbolic or aesthetic (美学的) purpose—or both. Bamboo, for example, represents strength. Flowers, meanwhile, add color to a garden, with each carrying a symbolic meaning of its own.Gates & WindowsGates of different shapes divide different parts of a garden. The most common type of gate, the moon gate, is simply a circle. Windows are placed throughout the garden to allow the passage of light. You can also catch a glimpse of interesting trees or rocks on the other side from the window.Pavilions (亭)In Chinese gardens, pavilions are usually placed in some of the best viewing places. Sometimes a pavilion is placed where one can see the reflection (倒影) of the moon at night, or in the best place to listen to the sound of rain on the leaves above. In the past, pavilions were also used as places for garden owners to reflect, paint and write poems.27．What does the underlined word “those” in paragraph 1 refer to?A．Plants.B．Paintings.C．Classical gardens.D．Mystery anddiscovery.28．What’s the purpose of this text?A．To list some plants and flowers.B．To introduce classical Chinese gardens.C．To explain the history of classical gardens.D．To compare different classical gardens in China.29．Which of the following best explains “glimpse” underlined in paragraph 6?A．Look.B．Visit.C．Guess.D．Feeling. 30．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．Nature Speaks for Itself B．Chinese Gardens and Western GardensC．Getting Lost in Classical Chinese Gardens D．Finding Ways to Modern Arts andBuildingss三、补全对话根据对话内容，从方框内的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
