Yego was born in Cheptonon, a village in the Great Rift Valley, in January 1989 and grew up loving football and running, but when he was lapped (领先一圈) by two competitors in a 10,000m school race, he turned his attention elsewhere afterward. He would cut and shape a javelin from tree branches and although his parents thought he should concentrate on his studies, Yego persisted and he became national junior champion. Combining his job as a policeman with training, Yego turned to the Internet, studying the technique and strength exercises the top javelin throwers employed. Neither being just 5 feet and 7 inches tall nor weighing 13 stone held Yego back. In 2011, he became the first Kenyan to win a field event medal at a continental meet with gold at the All-Africa Games. A year later in London he became the first African javelin thrower to reach an Olympic final, finishing 12th, a historical moment. To be an Olympian is something you will never forget, he said. So when I was named in the Olympics, I was just so happy. Luckily enough I was in the finals and that just changed all my life. He was fourth at the 2013 World Championships and won the 2014 Commonwealth title before being crowned world champion in Beijing, China, a year later with what is the fifth-longest throw in history of 92. 72m. Rio 2016 arrived and Yego was leading after three throws only to suffer an ankle injury on his fourth attempt which forced him to retire, and he looked on as Thomas Rohler of Germany overtook him to seize gold. But he is not defeated and he will have a chance to improve on that at the next Olympic Games.4.Why did Yego choose to study the javelin on the Internet?A.Because he disliked his coachs training method.B.Because there were no qualified trainers for him.C.Because no one knew the javelin in his country.D.Because studying on the Internet was free.5.What made Yego start to learn the javelin?A.His failure in study at school.B.His parents encouragement.C.His growing love of the javelin.D.His discouragement in running.6.When was Yego crowned world champion in Beijing?A.In 2013.B.In 2014.C.In 2015.D.In 2016.7.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A.Yego was defeated by Thomas Rohler and became a failure.B.Yego was forced to retire because of his injured ankle.C.Yego continues fighting despite his failure in 2016.D.Yego will surely win at the next Olympic Games.C School pupils in England will be grouped into bubbles when the new academic year starts in September, with mass activities such as assemblies discouraged under new regulations announced by Education Secretary Gavin Williamson. Schools were shut down in March, 2020. Currently around 1.6 million of the countrys 9 million school-age children are back in the classroom, but the government says a proper return in September is critical to our national recovery and attendance will be compulsory. Social distancing will not be applied in schools, and masks will not be worn, but instead so-called bubbles, based on avoiding contact between individual classes or year groups, will be deployed. This will mean separate start find finish times, and also different times for lunch and playtime. Pupils will be discouraged from using public transport, which could bring many other challenges. Mobile testing units will be sent to schools which have an outbreak, and schools will have testing kits to give parents if required, but if there are two confirmed cases in 14 days, potentially the whole school could be shut down. Geoff Barton, the general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, says, It will be immediately apparent to anyone reading this guidance that it is enormously challenging to carry out this proposal. The logistics of keeping apart many different bubbles of children in a full school, including whole-year groups comprising hundreds of pupils, is incredible. Meanwhile, before the much-anticipated next stage of easing lockdown in England takes place this weekend, the number of COVID-19 cases has risen in 36 local authorities across England. Easing measures have already had to be delayed in the East Midlands city of Leicester, but now other spikes (激增) in infection rate are being reported all across England. The areas with the largest increases are Knowsley and Bolton, both in the North West of the country, and the London borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. In Knowsley, close to the city of Liverpool, the rate of infection rose from 6 people out of every 100,000 to 20.8.What does Gavin group the students into bubbles for?A.

Tolerant.B. Doubtful.C. Hopeful.D. Ambiguous.11.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. England has already ended the lockdown.B. More reports are about the spread of COVID-19.C. The number of COVID-19 infections is increasing in England.D. COVID-19 is more serious in England than in other countries.D Today the songs, and whistles of parrots resound through the rainforest of Puerto Rico. But a few decades ago, these sounds nearly vanished. Deforestation hit Puerto Rican parrots. Before Europeans arrived in the 1500s, their population was estimated at a million. By the 1970s, as few as 13 Puerto Rican parrots were left in the wild, limited to the islands only remaining forest, the El Yunque National Forest. In a desperate effort, conservationists began to raise the parrots in captivity(圈养). It was a successful strategy: Though the chatty birds are still considered critically endangered, today more than 600 exist. Now there may be a new threat to their survival, conservationists say. Captive parrots have developed an entirely new dialect(方言), a phenomenon that has not been observed before in other captive bird populations. Around 2013, TanyaMartnez, a conservation biologist, began to notice the Puerto Rican parrots didnt all sound alike. If you would go into theEl Yunque National Forest to work with the wild population, it would almost sound like a different species from the captive birds, says Martnez. Curious to learn more, she checked on all four parrot populations in existence two wild and two captive and recorded them. What she heard confirmed her suspicion: The sounds were not the same from one population to another. The potential language barrier is worrying, says Timothy Wright, a biologist at New Mexico State University. To be successfully reintroduced, he says, parrots must be able to rely on communication, particularly to strengthen relationships in their individual communities. If you cant indicate to others that youre part of their group, you might not gain the benefits of being part of that group, like working together to find food, Wright says.12. What does vanished underlined in the first paragraph mean?A. Rose.B. Changed.C. Occurred.D. Disappeared.13. Why did the conservationists keep Puerto Rican parrots in captivity?A. To find effect of captivity on birds.B. To save the species from dying out.C. To study the change in their dialects.D. To distinguish them from other parrots.14. What does Timothy Wright probably agree with?A. The new language may loosen parrots, bond.B. Teamwork among parrots depends on their sound.C. The sound of each parrot varies from one to another.D. Parrots in the same community have closer relationship.15. What can be the best title for the text?A. Puerto Rican parrots are suffering from captivityB. Puerto Rican parrots are facing a new survival crisisC. Puerto Rican parrots have many ways to communicateD. Puerto Rican parrots developed new dialects in captivity第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 If youre going abroad for college, you might be thinking about how to get yourself a safe and cozy home for the years ahead. Of course, dormitories are always a good place to start, but some large state colleges require juniors to live off campus due to the limited number of dormitories. 16_. How to find a house 17_.

Also, registered realtors (房地产经纪人) might be able to find you a place for a fee. In addition, Facebook groups can also provide some useful information. 18_. Roommates Having roommates can not only save us some money, but also give us valuable companionship. However, remember that finding the right roommates for you is the most important thing, other than safety concerns. 19_, definitely do not lie about your preferences, schedules, or habits, even if talking about them could make you uncomfortable.
