As 2021 unfolds ….
… and you're joining us from Canada,we have a small favour to ask.Through these
challenging times, millions rely on the Guardian for independent journalism that stands for
truth.Readers chose to support us financially more than 1.5 million times in 2020,joining existing
supporters in 180 countries.
For 2021, we commit to another year of high-impact reporting that can offer an authoritative
and trustworthy source of news for everyone.When important events happen, we can investigate
and challenge without fear or favour.
Unlike many others,we have maintained our choice: to keep Guardian journalism open for all
readers,regardless of where they live or what they can afford to pay.We do this because we believe
in information equality, where everyone deserves to read accurate news and thoughtful analysis.
Greater numbers of people are staying well-informed on world events, and being inspired to take
meaningful action.
In the last year alone, we offered readers a comprehensive, international viewpoint on critical
events, especially on the climate emergency. We made the decision to reject advertising from
fossil fuel companies.
If there were ever a time to join us, it is now.Every contribution, however big or small,
powers our journalism and helps sustain our future. Support the Guardian from as little as
CA$1—it only takes a minute. Thank you.

When I was 6，my elder brother brought me to the local BMX（自行车越野）track to ride in
a kids' race for the first time.The hill out of the starting gate looked so scary and step that I backed
off. My parents took me back for another try the next week.I fell almost immediately but still
managed to win the second place.I've loved racing ever since.
I turned pro at 15,which isn't possible now: You have to be 17 to compete professionally
Around the time I went pro,BMX became an Olympic sport and I decided to pursue it after high
school.I'm the youngest woman with a professional title in the United States.
BMX isn't judged on tricks or how you handle barriers, but it's an extreme sport. It's like
horse racing mixed with riding a roller coaster.It starts with a huge burst of speed—I go 40 mph
by the time I'm two and a half seconds out of the gate.Then I try to come out in front of seven
competitors at the end of the track, which includes 40-foot jumps.I keep chasing the high that
comes from prestart nervousness, big jumps,and that feeling of crossing the finish line first.
Strength and balance are key in competition,so I work out at least five days a week to prepare.
I do tons of resistance and agility（灵活）training,both on and off the bike.I also do mental drills
with a sports psychologist to make sure I'm focused and confident going into competition.If I
make a mistake on the course,I have to move on.Everyone is out to beat me;I need to concentrate
on winning so my competitors can't capitalize on an error and pass me!
I was so proud to win a silver medal at the Olympics in Rio,but I felt I was capable of gold,
so that will push me to do better.I'm continually working to reach my potential in the sport. Until I
feel completely satisfied, I'll keep coming back.
24.What do we know about the author?
A.She withdrew from her first BMX race.
B.She became the youngest BMX rider in America.
C.Her parents forced her to turn BMX professional.
D.Her efforts resulted in BMX entering the Olympics.
25.To win the BMX race,the author has to____________.
A. jump highest B.focus on other competitors
C. play tricks D.keep ba lanced all the way
26.The underlined phrase"capitalize on"in Paragraph4probably means"

What about your emotions? How do they help you to understand what you are reading?
In Jane Yolan's Owl Moon,a girl explores with her father on a snowy night. She longs for
this special night.And she's amazed when she sees an owl.Have you felt longing before?
Amazement? Well, if you have, it helps you have a sense of agreement. When we can put
ourselves inside a story we can understand it better. Our brain tells us,"Oh, this girl's experience is
a bit like mine."And boom! We can relate to her.But this skill is not born in us.So young kids have
to learn it.
Pictures and images help young readers to understand and recognize feelings.Readers feel joy
when seeing the smiling faces of friends.They feel fear when turning the page to find a scary
monster. They are just pictures,but the feelings are real. This skill, to understand the thinking and
feeling of others, is what researchers call "theory of mind".
For example, think about the faces of people and animals in stories. The Big Bad Wolf's scary
teeth. The 'o' shape of a surprised character's mouth. Or big, wide eyes like the girl in Owl Moon.
By noticing the faces,readers can start to figure out what it feels like to be that character.And that
helps to figure out how people feel and think in real life.
But most young readers don't go into deep,scary woods.And some may not go to the beach or
play basketball.In the book Yo!Yes?two kids meet and play ball. The kids start the story on
opposite pages.But as the story goes on,they get closer until they are together.Some young readers
might not play basketball, but they can read the clues on the page to figure out how the kids are
feeling.And some readers might not like the game,but they can feel excited for the characters
because of how the characters look and move.
28. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. Owl Moon talks about the exploration of the Moon.
B. The feeling of"amazement"is a sense of agreement.
C.Readers are blessed with the ability to interpret others.
D.Readers with similar experience understand the story better.
29.Which of the following might help readers develop"theory of mind"?
A. True feelings. B. Smiling faces.
C. Picture books. D. Reading skills.
30.Young readers can go deeper into a story by_____________.
A. tracking the plot B. developing new skills
C.sharing similar hobbies D. analyzing the background
31.What is the text mainly about?
A.How thinking influences reading. B.How readers improve reading skills.
C. How emotions help enhance reading. D.How kids figure out the clues of stories.
D
On a break from his studies in the MIT Media Lab,Anirudh Sharma traveled home to Mumbai,
India. While there, he noticed that throughout the day his T-shirts were gradually gathering
something that i looked like dirt."I realized this was air pollution，or sooty（像煤一样）particulate
matter (PM)，made of black particles released from exhaust （尾气）of vehicles，"Sharma
says."This is a major health issue."Soot consists of tiny black particles,about 2.5 micrometers or
smaller,made carbon produced by incomplete burning of fossil fuels.
Back at MIT,Sharma set out to help solve this air-pollution issue. After years of research and
development, Sharma’s startup Graviky Labs has developed technology that attaches to exhaust
systems of diesel generators（柴油发电机）to collect particulate matter.Scientists at Graviky then
turn it into ink, called Air-Ink, for artists around the world. So far, the startup has collected I.6
billion micrograms of particulate matter.More than 200 gallons of Air-Ink have been harvested for
a growing community of more than 1,000 artists, from Bangalore to Boston, Shanghai,and
London.
Posted all over Graviky Lab's Facebook page today are photos of art made from the Air-Ink
and pant, including street wall paintings, body art and clothing prints.At first, there was still no
specific application for the ink. Then the startup decided to find new ways to further spread its
mission.It chose to do so through art."Art helps us raise awareness about where the ink and paint
comes from. Air pollution knows no borders. Our ink sends a message that pollution is one of the
resources in our world that's the hardest to collect and use.But it can be done,"Sharma says.
32. What struck Sharma most during his break in India?
A.Dirt on his T-shirts. B.Health issue of the locals.
C. Coal industry in Mumbai. D.Incomplete burning of fossil fuels.
33.According to the text,Air-Ink is___________.
A.a cleaner of outdoor air B.a product made from PM
C.a newly-founded company D.a printing technology
34. What can we infer about Air-Ink from the text?
A.It improves artistic effect. B.It makes pollution acceptable.
C. It helps Sharma make a profit. D.It raises environmental awareness.
35. What might be the best title for the text?
A.Arts know no borders B. Waste has no price
C. Less pollution,more art D.Creative thinking, effective painting

Rules for Being the Age You Are
If you have recently entered that period of life known as middle age,the building years of
your life are over, and what you are now is pretty much what you are going to be.Soon it will be
what you were. You can no longer tell yourself that you might move to Lisbon learn
Portuguese,and take up the guitar. 36
Do not just give people credits. 37 Here’s a funny thing I've learned: No matter how
many times you hear them, the words"You are amazing"never go out of style.
Give yourself permission to be bad. You know what you're really good at? Things you've
done many times before.Mastery is boredom.Unfortunately we enjoy feeling like masters. 38
We keep ourselves bored to protect ourselves from feeling stupid.
39 Nine times out of ten,you’ll be bored and go home early. But the tenth time, you will
have a worthy experience to meet an interesting person. It will make up for those other wasted
hours.
Do that ting you want to do right now.I mean literally pause reading this column, pick up
the phone,and book that skydiving session.RIGHT Now.Don’t put it off until you have the time to
really relax and enjoy it. 40 It's highly possible you won't be able to enjoy it. I will never
forgive myself for passing up a chance to go to trapeze school（空中飞人学校）in my late20s.
A.Always do it later.
B. We hate feeling like fools.
C. Go home as late as possible.
D.Tell them exactly how fantastic they are.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Henry got on his bike and began to deliver copies of the March 8,1970,issue of The Gazette.
Half an hour later,he threw the last newspaper onto the porch（门廊）at 35 Oak Street and cycled to
The Gazette offices. There must be something important for the editor in chief to meet with an
11-year-old paperboy.
"No good way to deliver bad news,"Mr. Trotta greeted him when Henry stepped in.Henry's
smile faded.
"We're closing shop,Henry. Advertising is down.Television is how people get their news
today. Local papers are the first to close."Mr.Trotta shrugged.
Henry couldn’t believe his ears, frozen to the spot.He thought of all hose people he had met
on his route. They wouldn't get their neighborhood news anymore!
You were great,Henry—always dependable"Mr. Trotta said.Henry forced his head up to say
good-bye.
As he rode past the houses he knew so well he saw Mr.Grady on his porch,holding a broom
（扫 帚）. Henry led him to a chair and cleaned the porch.They sat for a while as Mr.Grady
recalled how happy he'd been moving his family to 10 Oak. He sounded lonely.
A week after his last deliveries,Henry wondered if his customers missed The Gazette as much
as he did.He thought of a way to find out. He started out on his old route with a notebook
Henry stopped at Mrs.Burke's.She opened the door,holding the two babies.She asked him if
he knew any neighbors with experience of looking after children.
Mr. Simon was next door, carrying his violin out."Hey,Henry. My band is having à concert in
the park his Friday.Tell ll your friends."
As Henry made more notes,an idea started forming in his head.Maybe he could create a newsy
page （小报） for the neighbors.
注意∶
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Neighbors cheered Henry's idea,ready to offer information.
Henry's first Oak Street News then produced desired effects.
