My job was to follow behind the runners in an ambulance in case any of them needed medical attention. As the athletes began to pace themselves, the front runners started to disappear. It was then that my eyes were drawn to the woman in blue running shorts and a baggy white T-shirt.I knew we were already watching our “last runner”. Her feet were turned in, yet her left knee was turned out. Her legs were so crippled and bent that it seemed impossible for her to walk, let alone run a marathon.The driver and I watched in silence as she slowly moved forward. We would move forward a little bit, then stop and wait for her to gain some distance. Then wed slowly move forward a little bit more. As I watched her struggle to put one foot in front of the other, I found myself breathing for her and urging her forward. I wanted her to stop, and at the same time, I prayed that she wouldnt.Finally, she was the only runner left in sight. I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with respect and amazement as she pushed forward with sheer determination through the last miles. When the finish line came into sight, the cheering crowds had long gone home. Yet, standing straight and proud waited a man. He was holding one end of a ribbon tied to a post. She slowly crossed through, leaving both ends of the ribbon fluttering (飘动) behind her.I dont know this womans name, but that day she became a part of my life a part I often depend on. For her, it wasnt about beating the other runners or winning a prize. It was about finishing what she had set out to do. When I think things are too difficult or I get those “I-just-cant-do-it,” I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is.4. What does the underlined word “crippled” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Disabled.B. Healthy.C. Perfect.D. Strong.5. What has the author learnt from the woman?A. Dont depend on others when facing hardships.B. Nothing is too tough to accomplish if one is brave enough.C. The disabled can also run a marathon despite their walking difficulty.D. Its not winning but finishing the thing we start that really matters.6. What could be the best title for the text?A. A Humorous Stranger.B. An Unforgettable Job.C. The Last Runner.D. The Annual Marathon.【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者作为工作人员参加马拉松比赛，目睹一位脚有问题的女人坚持跑完马拉松的过程，并且这个最后一位跑步者一直激励作者以后生活的道路。【4题详解】词义猜测题。根据上文Her feet were turned in, yet her left knee was turned out.她的脚朝里，但左膝朝外。以及后文bent that it seemed impossible for her to walk, let alone run a marathon.可知这个女人的腿弯曲，似乎不可能走路，更不用说跑马拉松了。由此可知，这个女人腿有残疾，故划线单词意思为“残疾的”。A. Disabled.残疾的；B. Healthy.健康的；C. Perfect.完美的；D. Strong.强壮的。故选A。【5题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段I dont know this womans name, but that day she became a part of my life a part I often depend on. For her, it wasnt about beating the other runners or winning a prize. It was about finishing what she had set out to do. When I think things are too difficult or I get those “I-just-cant-do-it,” I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is. 可知我不知道这个女人的名字，但从那天起，她就成了我生活的一部分我经常依赖的一部分。对她来说，这不是打败其他赛跑者或赢得奖品的问题。这是关于完成她已经开始做的事情。当我认为事情太困难或者我得到那些“我只是不能做”的时候，我就会想到最后一个跑步者。然后我意识到我面前的任务是多么的简单。由此可以推断作者从这个女人身上学到的，不是胜利而是坚持到底才是最重要的，故选D。【6题详解】主旨大意题。根据最后一段中When I think things are too difficult or I get those “I-just-cant-do-it,” I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is.可知当我认为事情太困难或者我得到那些“我只是不能做”的时候，我就会想到最后一个跑步者。然后我意识到我面前的任务是多么的简单。结合本文主要讲述作者作为工作人员参加马拉松比赛，目睹一位脚有问题的女人坚持跑完马拉松的过程，并且这个最后一位跑步者一直激励作者以后生活的道路。所以C选项“最后一位跑步者”为短文最佳标题，更吸引读者，故选C。【点睛】CAre people happier in nature with blue skies overhead and fresh green grass underfoot? Could noisy streets, crowded with cars and people, make us unhappy?The possible mental health problems of city living affect a lot of people. The World Health Organization estimates(估计)that 56 percent of the worlds population lived in urban areas in 2019. The WHO adds that that amount will increase to 66 percent by 2050. People often move to cities for better jobs and more cultural activities. But are they putting themselves at risk? Maybe. Experts at the American Psychiatry Association say that “natural environments or green spaces” do much good to our mental health.Many studies have shown that nature can calm us and make us feel happy. Nature, experts say, can also help us learn better. And experiencing nature helps people recover from the mental tiredness that comes from day-to-day work. On the other hand, mental health experts say some research suggests that city living might hurt our mental health. But they cannot say exactly why.What are the specific aspects of the urban environment which causes some people to develop mental illness? Andrea Mechelli, a doctor at Kings College, London, states, “There have been studies where people were literally taken out of an urban environment into a rural (乡村的) environment and their symptoms would improve. And we also see that the greater the city is, the greater the risk is.” Mechelli say that someone who lives in a city is three times more likely to develop psychological problem than someone living in the country.Kings College researchers, along with city planners, land and building designers and others wanted to learn more about city living and mental illness. So, they created a smartphone app called Urban Mind. They say they wanted to understand how different parts of the urban environment affect mental wellbeing(健康).The researchers found that being outdoors, seeing trees, hearing birdsong, seeing the sky, and feeling in contact with nature were associated with higher levels of mental well-being. They also found that these seeming effects of nature were especially strong in those individuals at greater risk of mental health problems. The Urban Mind Project team says it hopes “the results will inform future urban planning and social policy aimed at improving design and health.”7. Why is the question raised in the first paragraph?A. To introduce the topic of the text.B. To show the background of the text.C. To ask the readers to learn the study.D. To raise the readers interest in happiness.8. What does Mechelli find during his study?A. People are attracted by the blue skies and green grass.B. People are more content with their city life.C. More and more people are interested in taking risks in cities,D. City people are more likely to develop mental problems than country people.9. What is expected of the Urban Mind research result?A. More people will choose to live in the countryside.B. It will bring more concern about people s mental health.C. It will contribute to future urban planning and social policies.D. People will be helped to improve their mental illness.10. What is the main idea of the text?A. Urban Mind measures the level of mental wellbeing.B. City living may be harmful to peoples mental health.C. Living in the countryside is better than in the city.D. Different scientists hold different opinions on the effects of city living.【答案】7. A 8.
