NPR’s Student Podcast (播客) Challenge is back—for a fifth year! This year’s competition will open for entries on September 6, 2023 and close on October 28.
As in past years, our judges will choose winners in two categories: grades five through eight and grades nine through twelve. Entries must be submitted by an educator or a student leader who’s 18 years old or older. Another important rule is that the maximum length of your podcast is within eight minutes, and longer entries will be disqualified.
Our judges will use the following criteria to narrow down and choose the winners:
Information and structure, 40 percent
Does the podcast tell a good story or teach us something new and important? Is it structured in a way that keeps listeners engaged? Can we easily follow the story you’re telling or the information you’re explaining? Have you spent time cutting out unnecessary information to make sure the main ideas come through clearly?
Personality and creativity, 40 percent
Does it have personality, or does it sound like you’re reading from a script (腳本)? Does it make us laugh or cry or leave us deep in thought?
Production 20 percent
We’re not judging you on how fancy your equipment is and we don’t expect you to be an expert on recording and editing sound, but we hope you’ll try.
Some podcasts may use a narration format. Others may be more of an interview format. If you use sound apart from interviews and narration, make sure it is clear and smooth.
1. Who are qualified to submit the podcast to the competition?
A. Editors. B. Students. C. Parents. D. Teachers.
2. What is a requirement for the entries?
A. They should be more than eight minutes. B. They must be well structured and edited.
C. They must be produced with special sound effects. D. They have to adopt an interview format.
3. Which statement is NOT true about the competition?
A. October 28 is the deadline for all the participants to hand in their entry.
B. The content of a podcast must be educational as well as entertaining.
C. It doesn’t matter whether students are using equipment of high quality
D. Winners are evaluated in different aspects other than the script or format.

The most important life lesson I’ve learned from running is to run at my own pace. This lesson has guided me in many ways. In particular, it made me challenge the fixed expectations of retirement and aging.
Running is a metaphor (隱喻) for life. I realized this while training for a marathon to celebrate my 60th birthday. All the other runners being faster than me made me embarrassed, but my coach shared some valuable advice: run at your own best pace — setting a goal or target time could be a limitation. He was right. Over time I ran more easily and faster. I also enjoyed the experience much more.
I have applied this principle to other areas of my life. Finding a rhythm is not about efficiency or how many things I can get done in a day. It has more to do with what I decide to do at this stage in my life. Running carries its own set of expectations, including what people at certain life stage should be doing or not doing. Expectations at my age can center on how leisure time is spent, decisions about employment, and even the role of a grandparent.
I used to think it was young people who bore the impact of peer pressure, but older adults can experience it too. This is ironic, because often later in this life is a time when we tend to care less about the opinions of others.
I’m not suggesting we postpone dreams. Of course, we should do what matters to us, but it’s easy to view retirement as another occupation with benchmarks (基準) to be met. It’s a comparison trap that makes what someone else does the reference point.
Forget what others are doing. Their pace is not necessarily the pace you should run at. Run at your own way. Our bodies know what they need. Our hearts know what they need. In living life on our own terms, we will likely feel stronger in body, mind and spirit.
4. What motivated the author to participate in marathon?
A. Her keen wish to celebrate her 60th birthday.
B. Her strong curiosity for fighting against aging.
C. Her eager interest in doing regular exercise.
D. Her urgent need to enhance her health and mind.
5. What do the underlined words “this principle” in paragraph 3 probably refer to?
A. Setting a target time. B. Finding your limitation.
C. Enjoying your decisions. D. Running at your own pace.
6. What does the author think of peer pressure?
A. Its impact is only limited to young generations.
B. Even senior citizens cannot avoid it completely.
C. Its existence is too ridiculous to explain.
D. It ends if we stop pursuing our dreams.
7. What might the author intend to convey through her experience?
A. Look before you leap. B. Birds of a feather flock together.
C. It’s never old late to learn. D. Don’t follow the crowd.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【導語】這是一篇夾敘夾議的文章。文章講述了作者通過跑馬拉松,教練給他的建議,明白了每個人的人生應該有自己的節(jié)奏,而不是按照別人的節(jié)奏來生活。
【4題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“I realized this while training for a marathon to celebrate my 60th birthday. (我是在為慶祝我60歲生日的馬拉松訓練時意識到這一點的。)”可知,慶祝60歲生日的強烈愿望激勵了作者參加馬拉松。故選A項。
【5題詳解】
詞句猜測題。劃線詞句前文“All the other runners being faster than me made me embarrassed, but my coach shared some valuable advice: run at your own best pace — setting a goal or target time could be a limitation. (所有其他跑得比我快的人都讓我很尷尬,但我的教練分享了一些寶貴的建議:以你自己的最佳節(jié)奏跑步——設定一個目標或目標時間可能是一種限制。)”說明教練建議作者按照自己的速度跑步,不用在意其他人的速度。從而推知劃線詞句“(我把this principle應用到我生活的其他方面。)”其中劃線短語應為“按照自己最好的節(jié)奏跑步”的意思。故選D項。
【6題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中“I used to think it was young people who bore the impact of peer pressure, but older adults can experience it too. (我曾經(jīng)認為只有年輕人才會受到同輩壓力的影響,但老年人也會有同樣的感受。)”可知,作者認為在同輩壓力影響方面,即使是老年人也不能完全避免它。故選B項。
【7題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Forget what others are doing. Their pace is not necessarily the pace you should run at. Run at your own way. Our bodies know what they need. Our hearts know what they need. In living life on our own terms, we will likely feel stronger in body, mind and spirit. (忘記別人在做什么。他們的速度不一定是你應該跑的速度。按照你自己的方式奔跑。我們的身體知道自己需要什么。我們的心知道自己需要什么。按照自己的方式生活,我們可能會在身體、思想和精神上感到更強大。)”可知,作者打算通過她的經(jīng)歷向讀者傳達,按照自己的節(jié)奏生活,不要隨大流兒。故選D項。
C
On January 7, David Bennett went into the operating room at the University of Maryland Medical Center for a surgical procedure never performed before on a human. The 57-year-old Maryland resident had been hospitalized for months due to a life threatening disease. His heart was failing him and he needed a new one.
Bennett’s condition left him unresponsive to treatment and ineligible (不合格) for the transplant list or an artificial heart pump. The physician-scientists at the center, however, had another-also risky- option: transplant (移植) a heart from a genetically-modified pig.
“It was either die or do this transplant,” Bennett had told surgeons a day before the operation. “I want to live. I know it’s a shot in the dark, but it’s also my last choice.”
It took the medical team eight hours to finish the operation, making Bennett the first human to successfully receive a pig’s heart. “It’s working and it looks normal. We are thrilled, but we don’t know what tomorrow will bring us. This has never been done before,” Barkley Griffith, who led the transplant team, told the New York Times.
While it’s only been five days since the operation, the surgeons say that Bennett’s new pig heart was, so far, functioning as expected and his body wasn’t rejecting (排斥) the organ. They are still monitoring his condition closely.
“I think it’s extremely exciting,” says Robert Montgomery, transplant surgeon and director of the NYU Langone Transplant Institute, who was not involved in Bennett’s operation. The result of the procedure was also personally meaningful for Montgomery, who received a heart transplant in 2018 due to a genetic disease that may also affect members of his family in the future. “It’s still in the early days, but still the heart seems to be functioning. And that in and of itself is an extraordinary thing. Up to now most experimental heart transplant procedures have been done between pigs and other animals. This is the first time that surgeons have taken it into a living human.”
8. What do the words “a shot in the dark” underlined in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Something that costs a fortune.
B. Something impossible to succeed.
C. Something drawing public attention.
D. Something with an uncertain outcome.
9. What is Barkley Griffith’s attitude to Bennett’s post-operation condition?
A. Negative.
B. Cautious.
C. Optimistic.
D. Uncaring.
10. What is the text mainly about?
A. The heated debate over the pig heart transplant.
B David Bennett’s contribution to medical research.
C. The first experimental pig heart transplant in the world.
D. The first successful pig heart transplant into a living human.
11. In which section of a magazine may this text appear?
A. Political Affairs.
B. Global Entertainment.
C. Sci-Tech Front.
D. Financial Window.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【導語】本文是一篇新聞報道。文章報道了全球第一次成功的豬心移植到活人體內(nèi)。
【8題詳解】
詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞上文““It was either die or do this transplant,” Bennett had told surgeons a day before the operation.(“要么死,要么做移植手術,”班尼特在手術前一天告訴外科醫(yī)生)”及下文“but it’s also my last choice.(但這也是我最后的選擇)”可推知,班尼特不確定手術是否成功。由此推知,劃線短語a shot in the dark的意思是“結(jié)果不確定的事情”。故選D。
【9題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中的““It’s working and it looks normal. We are thrilled, but we don’t know what tomorrow will bring us. This has never been done before,” Barkley Griffith, who led the transplant team, told the New York Times.(“它正在工作,看起來很正常。我們很興奮,但我們不知道明天會給我們帶來什么。這是前所未有的,”領導移植團隊的巴克利·格里菲斯在接受《紐約時報》采訪時表示)”可推知,巴克利·格里菲斯對本內(nèi)特的術后情況持謹慎態(tài)度。故選B。
【10題詳解】
主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段中的“On January 7, David Bennett went into the operating room at the University of Maryland Medical Center for a surgical procedure never performed before on a human.(1月7日,大衛(wèi)·班尼特走進馬里蘭大學醫(yī)學中心的手術室,進行一項從未在人類身上進行過的手術)”和“His heart was failing him and he needed a new one.(他的心臟衰竭了,他需要一個新的心臟)”根據(jù)第二段“The physician-scientists at the center, however, had another-also risky- option: transplant (移植) a heart from a genetically-modified pig.”(然而,該中心的醫(yī)生和科學家們還有另一個同樣有風險的選擇:從一只轉(zhuǎn)基因豬身上移植心臟。)及下文介紹可知,文章主要介紹了全球第一次成功的豬心移植到活人體內(nèi)。故選D。
【11題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中的“On January 7, David Bennett went into the operating room at the University of Maryland Medical Center for a surgical procedure never performed before on a human.(1月7日,大衛(wèi)·班尼特走進馬里蘭大學醫(yī)學中心的手術室,進行一項從未在人類身上進行過的手術)”及下文介紹可知,文章主要介紹了全球第一次成功的豬心移植到活人體內(nèi)。由此推知,這篇文章也許會出現(xiàn)在雜志的科技前沿部分。故選C。
D
Women were less likely than men to support the Vietnam war, the Gulf war, or the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. They commit far fewer murders. They are less likely to favor strikes. For some scholars, these are grounds for thinking that a world run by women would be more peaceful.
But European history suggests otherwise, according to political scientists Oeindrila Dube and S. P. Harish. They studied how often European rulers went to war between 1480 and 1913, and found that states ruled by queens were 27% more likely to get involved in wars than those ruled by kings.
This was not all the queens’ fault: men, seeing them as soft targets, tended to attack them. Frederick the Great of Prussia once declared: ”No woman should ever be allowed to govern anything.“ Shortly after becoming king, he attacked the newly crowned Archduchess of Austria, Maria Theresa, and seized Silesia province. Despite years of war, she never recovered it.
But perceived weakness is not the whole story. Queens, the researchers found, were more likely to gain new territory. Catherine the Great expanded her empire by some 200,000 square miles. And married queens were more aggressive than single queens or kings, whether single or married.
The authors suggest several reasons for this. First, married queens may have been able to form more military alliances(聯(lián)盟),making them confident enough to pick fights. Their husbands had often served in the army before they married, and were well placed to strengthen military ties between their homelands and their wives’ states.
Second, unlike most kings, queens often gave their husbands a lot of power,putting them in charge of foreign policy or the economy. During the 1740s, Maria Theresa’s husband, Francis I, reformed the Austrian economy and raised money for the armed forces while his wife ruled much of central Europe. Prince Albert was Queen Victoria’s most trusted adviser, shaping her foreign policy until his death in1861. This division of labor, the authors suggest, freed up time for queens to pursue more aggressive policies.
The modern era, too, has witnessed female leaders in wars: Golda Meir and the Yom Kippur war, or Margaret Thatcher and the Falklands. The number of countries led by women has more than doubled since 2000, but there is plenty of room for improvement: the current level of 15 represents less than 10 % of the total. A world in which more women took power might be more equal. Whether it would be more peaceful is a different question.
12. The underlined “perceived weakness” in paragraph 4 means that________.
A. women were less likely to support wars
B. women could not recover lost territory
C. women commit far fewer crimes
D. women were soft targets
13. Why were married queens more likely to gain new territory?
A. Because their military alliances picked fights for them.
B. Because they were ambitious and aggressive by nature.
C. Because their husbands were supportive in state governing.
D. Because they centralized all power into their own hands.
14. What is the purpose of mentioning the two female leaders in the last paragraph?
A. To imply there is room for improvement in gender equality.
B. To indicate more females become leaders in modern times.
C. To illustrate female leaders cannot prevent wars in modern times.
D. To suggest female leaders have their share of wars in modern times.
15. According to the passage, we can safely conclude that________.
A. married women are not fit to govern their states on their own
B. female leaders should be responsible for all wars throughout history
C. the world wouldn’t be more peaceful even if more women took power
D. the division of labor allows queens to survive economic crisis
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【導語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了由女性執(zhí)政的國家歷史上并不比男性執(zhí)政的國家和平,已婚女王帶領的國家其實經(jīng)歷了更多的戰(zhàn)爭。
【12題詳解】
詞句猜測題。根據(jù)第三段第一句話“This was not all the queens’ fault: men, seeing them as soft targets, tended to attack them. (這不全是女王的錯:男人們把他們視為軟目標,傾向于攻擊他們)”以及下文可知,男人們將女人看作軟柿子,傾向于攻擊她們,然后舉例證明男人攻擊女性執(zhí)政的國家,而第四段卻表示這不是完整的故事,說明劃線詞應該指代上文男性對女性的輕視,因此畫線的句子應該理解為“認為女人是軟柿子”。故選D。
【13題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段“The authors suggest several reasons for this. First, married queens may have been able to form more military alliances(聯(lián)盟),making them confident enough to pick fights. Their husbands had often served in the army before they married, and were well placed to strengthen military ties between their homelands and their wives’ states.(作者提出了幾個原因。首先,已婚皇后可能已經(jīng)能夠形成更多的軍事聯(lián)盟,使他們有足夠的信心挑起戰(zhàn)爭。他們的丈夫在結(jié)婚前經(jīng)常在軍隊服役,他們處于有利地位,可以加強祖國和妻子所在州之間的軍事聯(lián)系)”可知,他們的丈夫會幫助其管理國家。故選C。
【14題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段第一句話“The modern era, too, has witnessed female leaders in wars: Golda Meir and the Yom Kippur war, or Margaret Thatcher and the Falklands. (現(xiàn)代也見證了戰(zhàn)爭中的女性領導人:戈爾達·梅爾和贖罪日戰(zhàn)爭,或者瑪格麗特·撒切爾和??颂m群島)”可知,這里舉例是想表明當代的女性領導者也在戰(zhàn)爭中有參與。故選D。
【15題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段最后兩句話“A world in which more women took power might be more equal. Whether it would be more peaceful is a different question.(一個有更多女性掌權的世界可能會更加平等。是否會更和平是另一個問題)”可知,越來越多女性執(zhí)政可能世界會更平等,但是是否更和平就是另一回事了,且前面一直介紹歷史上和現(xiàn)代女性執(zhí)政者都參與戰(zhàn)爭,所以我們可以總結(jié)出就算更多女性執(zhí)政,世界也不會變得更加和平。故選C。

Many people wonder what they can do to become well-rounded and competitive while increasing their rate of success. ____16____
Be willing to expand your mind. Rid yourself of assumptions and convictions so that you can be open and receptive to new information. ____17____ You will eventually come across information that challenges your worldview. Rather than remaining resting in your comfort zone, use this time to stop, reflect and shed light on these ideas in a way that can develop and expand your vision.

Surround yourself with like-minded individuals and try to always take something valuable away from your daily interactions. ____19____ If you come across anything that confuses you, ask them! Never be too prideful, for each question you don’t ask is a missed opportunity!
____20____ Commit to expanding your mind, continuing your education and becoming a student of life. Use the world as your classroom, and always come away with a lesson. Remember to cultivate your mind so it is prepared to expand, blossom and grow. And share your fountain of knowledge.
A. Go ahead and challenge yourself today.
B. Create a to-learn list just as you would a to-do list.

I have watched a plenty of documentaries about Shanghai and I had been dying to go there. If I have a chance to go sightseeing there, I’ll make a detailed plan based on my knowledge about the city. I’ll walk along the Bund, which I can see many western-style buildings. For lunch, we would like to eat some delicious snack in Yu Garden. After lunch, I plan to visit the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, which is the seventh high tower in the world. Besides, I will also climb to the top of that tower to have a view of the whole modernly city. Only by this way can I have better understanding of it. I hope my wish to visit Shanghai will be realizing this year.

4.we→I
5. snack→snacks
6.high→highest
7.modernly→modern
8.by→in
9.better前加上a
10.realizing→realized
【解析】

【詳解】1.考固定短語。句意:我已經(jīng)看過很多關于上海的文件,并一直想要去上海。此處意為“大量的”,表達為plenty of,故去掉a。
2.考查時態(tài)。句意同上。此處意為“我一直渴望去上?!?,強調(diào)從過去持續(xù)到現(xiàn)在的動作,故此處應用現(xiàn)在完成時,故將had改為have。
3.考查定語從句。句意:我就會沿著外灘散步,在外灘,我可以看到很多西方建筑。此處引導定語從句,先行詞為the Bund,在定語從句作地點狀語,故應用where引導,故將which改為where;或理解為介詞+which引導定語從句,表示“在外灘”用介詞on,故也可用在which前加上on。故which改為where或者在which前加on。
4.考查主語。句意;對于午餐,我想要在豫園吃一些美味的小吃。全文講述作者去上海的計劃,主語為I,故將we改為I。
5.考查名詞的數(shù)。句意:同上。此處“snack零食”為可數(shù)名詞,且此處為復數(shù)形式,以為你“吃各種零食”,故將snack改為snacks。
6.考查形容詞最高級。句意:午餐之后,我打算去參觀東方明珠塔,這是世界第七高塔。此處意為“世界上第七高塔”,故應用序數(shù)詞+adj.最高級,故將high改為highest。
7.考查形容詞。句意:而且,我也將爬到塔的頂部,鳥瞰整個現(xiàn)代化的城市。此處修飾名詞city,故應用形容詞“modern現(xiàn)代的”作定語,故將modernly改為modern。
8.考查介詞。句意:只有通過這種方式,我才能更了解上海。“通過這種方式”表達為in this way,故將by改為in。
9.考查冠詞。句意同上。此處意為“更好地理解……”,表達為have a better understanding of…,故在better前加上a。
10.考查過去分詞。句意:我希望我參觀上海的愿望在今年可以實現(xiàn)。此處wish與realize之間為被動關系,應用過去分詞和will be構成一般將來時的被動語態(tài)。故將realizing改為realized。

Thank you for listening.
【答案】Dear teachers and my fellow students,
Good morning. I am Li Hua. Much honored to deliver a speech on behalf of senior three students here, I would like to share my humble opinions on how to better adapt to senior three life.
It is certain that the coming year is laden with difficulties and challenges. With in total six major subjects to work on, chances are that we will frequently feel a shortage of time. Besides, the highly intense study life is likely to cause stress and anxiety, which leads to low efficiency and even health problems.
Faced with these possible obstacles, we need a detailed study schedule to maximize our efficiency. Meanwhile, it’s necessary to occasionally take off the burden, get enough exercise and relax.
I’m now determined to reach for the stars and firmly believe that as long as we are mentally and physically prepared, we can manage senior three life perfectly.
Thank you for listening.
