The Olympic medal ceremonies have already begun.But some athletes hardly disguise their disappointment when silver and not gold is hung around their necks.The British judo silver medallist Neil Adams calls his two from the 1980s “loser's medals”．
Until four years ago，they were in a box at the back of a cupboard.His wife then had them framed for his 50th birthday and they are now up on the wall.
Adams feels proud when he looks at them，but his thoughts quickly turn to “what ifs”．“I wouldn't change much”，he adds.And he wouldn't need to.Gold was within his grasp twice，but slipped away by a narrow margin on the judo mat.
“The losses at the Olympic Games were the most difficult thing for me to accept，” he said.“I didn't win the silver medal.I lost the gold.In my mind they were losses.It has taken more than 30 years to get over it.”
Mark Cavendish，Jessica Ennis and Mo Farah have never won Olympic gold，but they came into London 2022 as three of Team GB's biggest medal hopes.Unfortunately，Cavendish has already suffered disappointment in the cycling road race.Neil Adams was in that same position in both the 1980 and 1984 games.However，in a career in which he collected every other judo accolade，things simply went wrong at the Olympics.
In Moscow 1980，Adams was just 21 years old and found the media focus and pressure of expectation too much.
Asked about being a favourite，Adams said：“It is hell，and about how you cope with it in the mind.It can make you afraid to win or lose and there is a difference.I was afraid to lose.Sometimes you freeze.Sometimes it takes you over.”
Adams says that he was very cautious and that when something was tactical and technical he approached it too tactically.Perhaps it's better to go in with a ‘nothing to lose’ attitude.That might be the reason why the Olympic Games have often created surprise results.Sometimes it's the ones who keep their cool and work the hardest who get the results.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
The diversity of the original American Indian settlers was not quite as great as that of the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries when waves of European, Asian and unwilling African immigrants arrived on American shores. However, the First Americans did have more far-going origins that were ever suspected. For example, Brace’s studies have revealed that the Blackfoot, Iroquois, and other tribes from Minnesota, Michigan, Ontario, and Massachusetts came down from the Jomon, a prehistoric people of Japan. The Inuit in the far north and tribal groups who once lived down the Eastern seaboard into Florida appear to be a later branch from the trunk of the Jomon family tree. The Athabaskan-speaking people from the Yukon and northern-western Canada, who spread as far south as Arizona and northern Mexico, appear to trace their origins to China. “Their facial shapes link them more closely to the living Chinese than to any other population in either part of the world,” says Brace.
Johanna Nichols, a Professor of Slavic languages and literature at the University of California at Berkeley, says that new evidence from native languages throughout the New World strongly suggests that humans have been in the Americas since as early as 40,000 BC. She says that it is only along the west coast that languages appear to have come from immigrants who arrived after the ice age, 14,000 years ago.
Nichols also has some different ideas about the direction in which the country was settled. Breaking with the traditional view of migrations, she says that the inside of North America was colonized not only from Siberia but also from the south.
To bolster her argument for an early settlement date, Nichols points to findings from the Monte Verde site in southern Chile. It has been dated at 12,500 years old, which means the area was occupied during the last ice age. And, the Monte Verde people would have needed at least 6,500 years to travel from Alaska to Chile. Yet, that only takes us back to about 19,000 years ago. Her research suggests a very high degree of language diversity is something that happens only with time. She insists that the approximately 150 distinct native American language families we know of today must have required at least 35,000 years to develop.
1. In the first paragraph the writer uses the word “unwilling” to show that _______.
A. the Africans came against the will of most Americans
B. the Africans came without the approval of their parents
C. the Africans were taken here against their own will
D. the Europeans who came at the time didn’t want the Africans to come together
2. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the Athabaskan-speaking people?
A. They were related to people living in Japan in prehistoric times.
B. They were a branch from the trunk of the Jomon family tree.
C. They have no links to any other people.
D. They were thought to have certain links to the ancestors of the Chinese people.
3. The underlined word bolster in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.
A. use B. have C. support D. build
4. From the passage we can know _______.
A. people in the Americas today are believed to have probably come down only from the north
B. Nichols strongly suggests that humans have lived in the Americas for about 6,500 years
C. Nichols supports the traditional ideas about the direction in which the country was settled
D. it surely takes a very long time for language diversity to come about

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
One night, I was partying in central London, near Piccadilly Circus. Running short of money, I set off to find the nearest ATM to withdraw some cash. At Shaftesbury Avenue, I saw a huge queue for one ATM machine, but no one was using the neighboring “hole in the wall”. Assuming that the second machine was broken, I asked one queuing man if it was out of order. He replied, “It’s working, but this one pays out twenties for tenners!”
So the reason for the weirdly long queue is that these folks wanted to “double their money” by getting £20 notes for each £10 note requested. Being an honest man, I didn’t hang about; I simply used the idle machine and walked off.
Last week, customers took similar advantage of Commonwealth Bank in Sydney, Australia. Following overnight maintenance, a computer virus caused CommBank’s ATMs to fail to function properly and begin paying out extra money, with unrestricted withdrawals. They allowed customers with little or no cash in their accounts to withdraw large sums that they didn’t have. After about 5½ hours, CommBank managed to restart these ATMs and stop the flood of cash.
You stole your own cash!
By withdrawing money they didn’t have in their accounts, some of these greedy customers have gone heavily overdrawn. News reports indicate that some people were withdrawing as much as AU$2,500 (£1,563) in a single dealing.
Alas, both CommBank and the New South Wales police said that they will use ATM records and cameras to track down those who took advantage of the error. As Detective Superintendent Col Dyson of the New South Wales police department warned, “People should realise that they don’t have the right to take that money and are committing a criminal offence if they keep it.”
What about overpayments?
What about when you key in a £20 withdrawal and you get two £20 notes, not two £10 notes?
In English law (covering England and Wales), you have the right to keep money paid to you in error “under mistake of fact”, but only if you honestly believe that the money is yours.
However, if you requested £20, got £40 and £40 was allowed to be lent to you, then the cash is yours to keep, as neither you nor the bank has suffered any loss.
1. The words “hole in the wall” refer to _______.
A. a real hole in the wall B. another ATM
C. the mouth of a neighbour D. a common machine
2. We learn from the passage that the writer _______.
A. saw a huge queue on his way to a party and joined them
B. people queued up to withdraw money because the other ATMs were broken
C. had to use the unoccupied ATM to get some cash because he was in a hurry
D. was critical of what he saw when withdrawing cash from an ATM
3. According to the passage, _______.
A. last week, an ATM in Sydney, Australia paid out AU$10 for every request for AU$20
B. an ATM in Sydney, Australia was paying out more money than asked for because the bank owner had lifted the restriction
C. the machine paid out more money than requested even when a person had no money in his account
D. some people have been arrested on charge of getting extra money in the two happenings
4. From the part subtitled “What about overpayments?”, we can know _______.
A. some English laws don’t cover all Britain
B. if the money you asked for was more than requested, you’d always have to return the extra money
C. if people kept the extra money they got at a bank they might pretend they did not know it
D. people committed a crime by getting the extra money even if they had that much in their account

Mobile phones, good or bad for communication?
The technology of mobile phones has made many things easier for people. Someone can reach us or we can call someone wherever we are. However, people are unaware of the negative effects of mobile phones on communication.
Due to the convenience of mobile phones, many people have started to engage in social interaction in person less than before. In addition, mobile phone communication lacks facial expressions and body language, without which communication becomes less personal. Consequently, some people get confused and nervous while talking to a person face to face because they mostly talk to people on mobile phones. They even do not know the manners of communication.
As far as I am concerned, we should use mobile phones in a wise way and try to avoid depending too much on them.
