Keeping fit often means sharing a busy pathway with cyclists，runners and walkers，but imagine facing the
task of doing it all without being able to see or hear.It is a challenge many disabled athletes face，unless
someone agrees to be their eyes and ears.
Newly-formed group Achilles Brisbane pairs vision- and hearing-impaired(视觉和听觉受损的)
athletes with people who would like to guide them.
Jane Britt，president of Achilles Brisbane，who is vision- and hearing-impaired，said，“When we go
out，it’s much less frightening to have someone beside us that has full hearing to listen for us and tell us
what’s there.”
Ms Cullen and Ms Britt meet up most Saturday mornings to take part in the free five-kilometer park
run.Their partnership is built on trust，but Ms Britt said that it took time to develop.
Ms Britt said it took an unexpected storm for her to trust Ms Cullen completely.“There was violent
rain，my glasses were broken and we were walking together.I suddenly had to tell her I couldn’t see
anything，and I was going to have to completely trust her.From that time I knew it was going to work
because she was so good about dealing with the special situation we both found ourselves in，” she said.
Isabella Allen and her seeing eye dog Tatum are two new additions to the Achilles Brisbane.Ms Allen
kept active by rowing，running and cycling but found it difficult to keep going as her vision became
worse.After nearly giving up completely，she worked up the courage to ask Achilles Brisbane to find
someone to share a boat with her.
A. Henry doesn’t like the color. B. Someone else painted the house. C. Henry painted the house himself.

A student is learning to speak British English. He wonders: Can I communicate with Americans? Can they
understand me? Learners of English often ask: What are the differences between British and American
English? How important are these differences?
From the age of five，Alison Mbekeani，now in Durham University for her PhD，dreamed of becoming a
scientist.But becoming a mother to two children put a brake on her career.She does not expect to return to
the lab until her children are 16.Dr.Mbekeani is not alone.One survey in 2019 found that child-care
responsibilities led 29% of mothers with a child under 14 to reduce their working hours，compared with just
5 of fathers.
In an ideal world，the government would not have to worry about any of this.Based on their
Certainly！ there are some differences between British and American English. There are a few differences in
grammar. For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?”. Americans
say “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?”. Pronunciation is sometimes different. Americans usually
sound theirs in words like “bird” and “hurt”. Speakers of British English do not sound theirs in these words.
There are differences between British and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example,
“colour” and “honour” are British, “color” and “honor” are American.
These differences in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary are not important, however. For the
most part, British and American English are the same language.
33. According to this passage, a student who is learning to speak American English might be afraid
that_________.
preferences，parents would make a judgment over whether to outsource(外包) child-care or keep it in-
house.The question for policymakers is whether parental behavior reflects actual preferences or it is driven by

constraints(限制)．
Constraints are an issue.Three in five nonworking mothers say that they would prefer to work，given
the right child-care.Families had to fork out an average of ￡260 a week in 2021 for 50 hours of nursery care
for a child under two.A tenth of households with a child under five report difficulty meeting such costs.As
well as price，availability is a problem.Just 68% of local authorities in England report having enough child-
care provision(供应) to serve parents who work full time.
Besides child-care，the benefits that could flow from evening out the gender(性别) imbalance in child-
care could also be pretty large.One recent study estimated the gains from shuffling men and women
according to ability，pulling productive women into work and kicking unproductive men
out.Astonishingly，it was calculated that Britain’s average output per worker could be as much as 30%
higher.
A. British people cannot understand him B. American people cannot understand him
C. the grammar is too hard for him D. the spelling is too hard for him
34. American English and British English are different in_________.
A. spelling
B. pronunciation C. grammar D. all of the above
Cheaper childcare and gender-balanced responsibility in it are ways out to help mums into work，but
policies would need to be designed to target really constrained parents.However，experts also add that
giving children the best start in life means shorter，structured days full of interaction.
35. Most _________say “Do you have a watch?”.
A. British people B. Americans C. children D. teachers
36. According to this passage, British people and Americans have _________difficulty in understanding
each other.
