21、 There’s an African proverb that says, “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” That’s the line that closes the film The Good Lie and the meaning can be felt throughout the 112 minutes of the movie. In the film, the actors convey the struggle, heartbreak and loss other real-life refugees experienced during the civil war that took place in Sudan in the 1980s and continues today.
The gunslingers(持枪歹徒) destroyed a Sudanese village, killing and fathers and orphaning their children. They appeared again as a group of young boys and their sister walked hundreds of miles, battling nature, hunger and thirst in order to find somewhere far away from their violent homes. They’re even present when a group of refugees get a chance of new life. An ocean away, in a strange land with even strange people.
After burying friends, swimming through rivers filled with dead bodies and surviving in the severe conditions of a Kenyan refugee camp, Mamere (Arnold Oceng), Jeremiah (Ger Duany), Paul (Emmanuel Jal) and Abital (Kuoth Wiel) are given golden ticket to America. But they must again face cruelty, this time at the hands of the US government, as the boys are parted from their sister before their new life can begin, which is even harder to take than the violence you watch the children go through in the beginning of the film and it only serves to show that nothing will come easy for these young men who have their American Dream.
Oceng and Duany are brilliant as Mamere and Jeremiah. In his first American starring role, Oceng perfectly played the role of Mamere who weighs his dreams of going to college and becoming a doctor against his sense of responsibility to his family are great. Duany’s Jeremiah is the spiritual centre of the film, with a desire to help those in the community. His spiritual journey will touch your heart.
But what you absolutely cannot ignore while watching the film is the back-story of the actors themselves. Both Duany and Jal are actual children of war, refugees who experienced many of the same things their characters go through in the film, and Oceng is the son of the refugees. All three are so connected to the history of the story that they can’t help but be real in the emotions they convey. They’re the heart of the film and leave such a lasting impression and gain public praise.
【1】What makes the children suffer most in the film?
A.Death of good friends.
B.Separation from their family.
C.Cruelty from the US government.
D.Severe conditions of refugee camp.
【2】From the passage we can know that___________.
A.it’s the first time Oceng has been the leading role in a film
B.family and responsibility is the main theme of the film
C.both Oceng and Duany are actual refugees in Sudan
D.Oceng has made a lot of contribution to his family
【3】What is the key to the film’s success according to the author?
A.Impressive stories B..Full business operation

23、As race season approaches, many runners have the same goal: go faster. But in a study published in the journal Current Biology, researchers show that speeding up might require us to resist our natural biology. By combining data from runners monitored in a lab along with 37,000 runs recorded on wearable fitness trackers, scientists have found that humans’ natural tendency is to run at a speed that conserves caloric loss—something that racers seeking to shave time off their miles will have to get over.
The research group have been studying the mechanics of running in labs for 15 years but hadn’t gotten a chance to study running in the wild before. “We joined the two datasets to gain new insights and combine the more messy wearable data with the gold standard lab experiments to learn about how people run out,” says co-author Jennifer Hicks.
What surprised the team was the consistency they found across the combined datasets. “We had assumed earlier that people ran faster for shorter distances and then would slow their pace for longer distances,” says first author Jessica Selinger. But this wasn’t the case. Most of the runners analyzed stuck with the same speed, whether they were going for a short run or a long one over ten kilometers.
From an evolutionary (进化) standpoint, it makes sense that people would run at the speed that uses the least amount of energy. This caloric conservation is something that has been observed across the animal kingdom. But humans’ reasons for running have changed, and if the goal is speed, there are some tricks runners can use.
Listening to music with a faster pace has been shown to help speed up stride (步伐) frequency, which increases running speed. In addition, picking faster running partners can give you a boost.
Hicks hopes that having large pools of fitness data from wearables will help researchers gain insights about populations. “You can look at connections with the built environment and access to leisure resources and start to layer all of that data to really understand how to improve physical activity and health more broadly,” says Hicks.
【1】What do the racers have to overcome during the race?
A．Energy consumption.
B．Muscle loss.
C．Weakness of humanity.
D．Lack of nutrients.
【2】What was the team’s initial idea concerning running?
A．People would run in the wild rather than in labs.
B．People adjust their speeds to different distances.
C．People run at a constant speed regardless of distance.
D．People possess enormous potential for running faster.
【3】Why are “listening to music” and “picking partners” mentioned in paragraph 5?
A．To offer tips on speed increase.
B．To evaluate the advantages of running.
C．To explain the importance of fast running.
D．To reveal the change in human running goals.
【4】What’s Hicks’ attitude to the information obtained from wearables?
A．Unclear.
B．Critical.
C．Doubtful.
D．Favorable.
