Jeremy Locke, who owns a roofing and construction company in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, had always been wanting to repair the roof of Jeanette MacDonald's home. Whenever he drove past the woman's home, he assumed that the roof was under repair because the job had already been taken on by another group of repairmen — but as the weeks wore on, the roof continued to worsen without any signs of repair.
“I had it in my mind that if no one steps up to help this lady in our community, I'd be more than happy to,” Locke told CBC.
When Locke finally reached out to MacDonald about fixing her roof for free, however, she politely declined his offer because she did not like to accept charity. That being said, she had already applied for a government grant (補助金) to fix the roof and she said she was more than happy to hire Locke once her grant application was approved.
Unfortunately, MacDonald never received the approval.
As the stubborn Canadian senior refused to accept any assistance from Locke, the sympathetic construction worker played an innocent trick in order to get her to accept his help He invited MacDonald to enter a raffle(抽獎)that his business was holding for a free roof After the grandmother-of-four accepted one of the raffle tickets. Locke told her that she was the winner — because she was the only one who had entered the raffle Thanks to his sweet little plan, Locke and his crew are starting work on the roof this week, which is expected to cost his company about $ 9,000.
MacDonald, meanwhile, told CBC that she doesn't know how to express her gratitude to Locke, saying that he is her “guardian angel”.
“There's nobody out there like him,” she added.
39. Why did MacDonald refuse Locke's offer initially?
A. She didn't trust him. B. She had won a raffle.
C. She didn't like free help. D. She had got an official grant.
40. How did Locke finally make MacDonald change her mind?
A. He persuaded her to give up her application. B. He invited her to enter his business.
C. He gave her about $ 9,000. D. He told her a white lie.
41. Which of the following words best describe Locke?
A. Stubborn and tricky. B. Wealthy and innocent.
C. Determined and warm-hearted. D. Different and ambitious.

Every kid has their own favorites. Dolls, dinosaurs, remote controls and cellphones — they might have a toy box with a wide range of play things to keep them entertained, but there's firm favorite they always reach for first-cars. Although the sex difference in the toy world remains, it's not only little boys who are drawn to all things with wheels. That my 20-month-old daughter dotes on the red bus toy is the proof of this.
From age 0 to 2, children are in the sensorimotor (感覺運動的) stage of development, explains Alyssa Wilkins. “They are learning by absorbing everything through their senses — sight, touch, taste, smell and hearing,” Wilkins says. “Toys and real-life objects like cars are very sensorily engaging. Kids can interact with toy cars, trucks, etc. through spinning (旋轉) their wheels, watching them move in a variety of directions, or hearing the sounds they make.”
Plus, kids are just naturally drawn to loud and moving objects. “They see the lights on the cars and the rolling wheels, and hear the sound of the running engine. It's very engaging,” Wilkins says. “Kids will always be drawn to attractive and loud things because that is what engages their brain and sensory systems.”
Another appeal of toy vehicles is that they're typically small enough to fit in a child's hand Cars become the favorite of both boys and girls because they can put their cars in their pockets r carry them around. A car is also a cause-and-effect toy — it teaches children that their actions can make something happen. “It's super interesting and exciting for kids to learn that they can change something in their environment, and they may feel proud of what they have done,” Capanna-Hodge says.
Every child is unique in how they engage with toys and the reasons for their play style may be diverse and complex. Ultimately, how your kids play with their toy vehicles could be a little window into what controls or excites them.
42. What does the underlined phrase “dotes on” in Paragraph I mean?
A. Turns down. B. Goes in for. C. Runs into. D. Has control of.
43. Which of the following aspects plays a big role in children's love for toy vehicles?
A. The influence form parents. B. The shape of toys vehicles.
C. The exciting sensory input. D. The peaceful learning environment.
44. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A. The smaller the toy vehicles are, the more the kids like them.
B. Boys perform better than girls while playing with toy vehicles.
C. The more toy vehicles the kids have, the more benefits the kids get.
D. Kids can gain a sense of achievement from playing with toy vehicles.
45. What might be the best title of the text?
A. Why toy vehicles are kids' favorites
B. How toy vehicles can boost kids' five sense
C. Why parents choose toy vehicles for their kids
D. How parents can encourage kids to play with toy vehicles
46. How does the author develop the text
A. B. C. D.
D
There are so many different methods claiming to predict marathon performance. But these are not always very accurate because predicting marathon performance is difficult. However, in our new study, we found it's possible to calculate a critical speed that we can use to predict a runner's marathon time with a good degree of accuracy.
Many things determine how fast you can run a marathon, your physical quality plays a huge role in your performance. For example, excellent marathon runners tend to be slim with long limbs. Fast marathon runners also tend to have a higher maximum rate of oxygen use (vo2 max) and can operate at a high percentage of this maximum for a long time without developing tiredness. The right shoes can make running more economical in terms of how much energy you use. And of course, choosing a flat course with ideal weather conditions can help too.
Endurance (耐久力) running is essentially determined by the fastest speed you can sustain for a given distance. or how long you can run at a given speed. This suggests there is a critical speed which, in theory, we can sustain for quite a long time. It is quite possible that the critical speed is useful for predicting endurance performance.
By analyzing training data from 25,000 athletes, we found we could estimate their critical speeds and predict their marathon performance with 92% accuracy.
We also found that, on average, runners ran the marathon at speeds around 85% of their critical speeds. Faster athletes ran their marathons at close to 93% of their critical speeds, but slower runners did so at 79% of their critical speeds. This means that using training data to estimate your critical speed, certain fitness apps on your smart watch or phone may soon be able to predict your finish time at an even higher degree of accuracy, as well as providing real-time advice about how best to pace your race.
47. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Differences between excellent runners and average runners
B. Conditions to consider before running a marathon
C. Characters of successful marathon runners.
D. Factors affecting runners' performance.
48. How does the author illustrate the findings?
A. By listing key data B. By telling personal stories
C. By quoting famous runners D. By explaining causes and effects
49. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Different marathon runners always run at different speeds.
B. Marathon runners will run better with the help of some apps.
C. Critical speeds for runners given by fitness apps are useful.
D. It'll be easy to predict runners' performance with some app
50. What does the author intend to introduce through the text?
A. A standard critical speed for marathon runners.
B. The inspiration gained from a marathon.
C. A way to predict marathon runners' performance.
D. The value of hard and scientific training.

Jeremy Locke, who owns a roofing and construction company in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, had always been wanting to repair the roof of Jeanette MacDonald's home. Whenever he drove past the woman's home, he assumed that the roof was under repair because the job had already been taken on by another group of repairmen — but as the weeks wore on, the roof continued to worsen without any signs of repair.
“I had it in my mind that if no one steps up to help this lady in our community, I'd be more than happy to,” Locke told CBC.
When Locke finally reached out to MacDonald about fixing her roof for free, however, she politely declined his offer because she did not like to accept charity. That being said, she had already applied for a government grant (補助金) to fix the roof and she said she was more than happy to hire Locke once her grant application was approved.
Unfortunately, MacDonald never received the approval.
As the stubborn Canadian senior refused to accept any assistance from Locke, the sympathetic construction worker played an innocent trick in order to get her to accept his help He invited MacDonald to enter a raffle(抽獎)that his business was holding for a free roof After the grandmother-of-four accepted one of the raffle tickets. Locke told her that she was the winner — because she was the only one who had entered the raffle Thanks to his sweet little plan, Locke and his crew are starting work on the roof this week, which is expected to cost his company about $ 9,000.
MacDonald, meanwhile, told CBC that she doesn't know how to express her gratitude to Locke, saying that he is her “guardian angel”.
“There's nobody out there like him,” she added.
39. Why did MacDonald refuse Locke's offer initially?
A. She didn't trust him. B. She had won a raffle.
C. She didn't like free help. D. She had got an official grant.
40. How did Locke finally make MacDonald change her mind?
A. He persuaded her to give up her application. B. He invited her to enter his business.
C. He gave her about $ 9,000. D. He told her a white lie.
41. Which of the following words best describe Locke?
A. Stubborn and tricky. B. Wealthy and innocent.
C. Determined and warm-hearted. D. Different and ambitious.

Every kid has their own favorites. Dolls, dinosaurs, remote controls and cellphones — they might have a toy box with a wide range of play things to keep them entertained, but there's firm favorite they always reach for first-cars. Although the sex difference in the toy world remains, it's not only little boys who are drawn to all things with wheels. That my 20-month-old daughter dotes on the red bus toy is the proof of this.
From age 0 to 2, children are in the sensorimotor (感覺運動的) stage of development, explains Alyssa Wilkins. “They are learning by absorbing everything through their senses — sight, touch, taste, smell and hearing,” Wilkins says. “Toys and real-life objects like cars are very sensorily engaging. Kids can interact with toy cars, trucks, etc. through spinning (旋轉) their wheels, watching them move in a variety of directions, or hearing the sounds they make.”
Plus, kids are just naturally drawn to loud and moving objects. “They see the lights on the cars and the rolling wheels, and hear the sound of the running engine. It's very engaging,” Wilkins says. “Kids will always be drawn to attractive and loud things because that is what engages their brain and sensory systems.”
Another appeal of toy vehicles is that they're typically small enough to fit in a child's hand Cars become the favorite of both boys and girls because they can put their cars in their pockets r carry them around. A car is also a cause-and-effect toy — it teaches children that their actions can make something happen. “It's super interesting and exciting for kids to learn that they can change something in their environment, and they may feel proud of what they have done,” Capanna-Hodge says.
Every child is unique in how they engage with toys and the reasons for their play style may be diverse and complex. Ultimately, how your kids play with their toy vehicles could be a little window into what controls or excites them.
42. What does the underlined phrase “dotes on” in Paragraph I mean?
A. Turns down. B. Goes in for. C. Runs into. D. Has control of.
43. Which of the following aspects plays a big role in children's love for toy vehicles?
A. The influence form parents. B. The shape of toys vehicles.
C. The exciting sensory input. D. The peaceful learning environment.
44. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A. The smaller the toy vehicles are, the more the kids like them.
B. Boys perform better than girls while playing with toy vehicles.
C. The more toy vehicles the kids have, the more benefits the kids get.
D. Kids can gain a sense of achievement from playing with toy vehicles.
45. What might be the best title of the text?
A. Why toy vehicles are kids' favorites
B. How toy vehicles can boost kids' five sense
C. Why parents choose toy vehicles for their kids
D. How parents can encourage kids to play with toy vehicles
46. How does the author develop the text
A. B. C. D.
【答案】42. B 43. C 44. D 45. A 46. B

There are so many different methods claiming to predict marathon performance. But these are not always very accurate because predicting marathon performance is difficult. However, in our new study, we found it's possible to calculate a critical speed that we can use to predict a runner's marathon time with a good degree of accuracy.
Many things determine how fast you can run a marathon, your physical quality plays a huge role in your performance. For example, excellent marathon runners tend to be slim with long limbs. Fast marathon runners also tend to have a higher maximum rate of oxygen use (vo2 max) and can operate at a high percentage of this maximum for a long time without developing tiredness. The right shoes can make running more economical in terms of how much energy you use. And of course, choosing a flat course with ideal weather conditions can help too.
Endurance (耐久力) running is essentially determined by the fastest speed you can sustain for a given distance. or how long you can run at a given speed. This suggests there is a critical speed which, in theory, we can sustain for quite a long time. It is quite possible that the critical speed is useful for predicting endurance performance.
By analyzing training data from 25,000 athletes, we found we could estimate their critical speeds and predict their marathon performance with 92% accuracy.
We also found that, on average, runners ran the marathon at speeds around 85% of their critical speeds. Faster athletes ran their marathons at close to 93% of their critical speeds, but slower runners did so at 79% of their critical speeds. This means that using training data to estimate your critical speed, certain fitness apps on your smart watch or phone may soon be able to predict your finish time at an even higher degree of accuracy, as well as providing real-time advice about how best to pace your race.
47. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Differences between excellent runners and average runners
B. Conditions to consider before running a marathon
C. Characters of successful marathon runners.
D. Factors affecting runners' performance.
48. How does the author illustrate the findings?
A. By listing key data B. By telling personal stories
C. By quoting famous runners D. By explaining causes and effects
49. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Different marathon runners always run at different speeds.
B. Marathon runners will run better with the help of some apps.
C. Critical speeds for runners given by fitness apps are useful.
D. It'll be easy to predict runners' performance with some app
50. What does the author intend to introduce through the text?
A. A standard critical speed for marathon runners.
B. The inspiration gained from a marathon.
C. A way to predict marathon runners' performance.
D. The value of hard and scientific training.
