21、 Not so long ago, most people didn’t know who Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce was going to become. She was just an average high school athlete. There was every indication that she was just another Jamaican teenager without much of a future. However, one person wants to change this. Stephen Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly-Ann at a track meet and was convinced that he had seen the beginning of true greatness. Her times were not exactly impressive, but even so, he sensed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking. He decided to offer Shelly-Ann a place in his very strict training sessions. Their cooperation quickly produced results, and a few years later at Jamaica’s Olympic trails in early 2008, Shelly Ann, who at that time only ranked number 70 in the world, beat Jamaica’s unchallenged queen of the sprint (短跑).
“Where did she come from?” asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again without signs. But Shelly Ann was to prove that she was anything but a one-hit wonder. At the Beijing Olympic she swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by becoming the first Jamaican woman ever to win the 100 meters Olympic gold. She did it again one year on at the World Championship in Berlin, becoming world champion with a time of 10.73 — the fourth fastest ever.
Shelly-Ann is a little woman with a big smile. She has a mental toughness that did not come about by chance. Her journey to becoming the fastest woman on earth has been anything but smooth and effortless. She grew up in one of Jamaica’s toughest inner-city communities known as Waterhouse, where she lived in a one-room apartment, sleeping four in a bed with her mother and two brothers. Waterhouse, one of the poorest communities in Jamaica, is a really violent and overpopulated place. Several of Shelly-Ann's friends and family were caught up in the killings; one of her cousins was shot dead only a few streets away from where she lived. Sometimes her family didn’t have enough to eat. She ran at the school championships barefooted because she couldn’t afford shoes. Her mother Maxime, one of a family of fourteen, had been an athlete herself as a young girl but, like so many other girls in Waterhouse, had to stop after she had her first baby. Maxime’s early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse's roundabout(循环) of poverty. One of the first things Maxime used to do with Shelly-Ann was taking her to the track, and she was ready to sacrifice everything.
It didn't take long for Shelly-Ann to realize that sports could be her way out of Waterhouse. On a summer evening in Beijing in 2008, all those long, hard hours of work and commitment finally bore fruit. The barefoot kid who just a few years previously had been living in poverty, surrounded by criminals and violence, had written a new chapter in the history of sports.
But Shelly-Ann’s victory was far greater than that. The night she won Olympic gold in Beijing, the routine murders in Waterhouse and the drug wars in the neighbouring streets stopped. The dark cloud above one of the world’s toughest criminal neighbourhoods simply disappeared for a few days. “I have so much fire burning for my country,” Shelly said. She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse. She hopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay down their weapons. She intends to fight to make it a woman’s as well as a man’s world.
As Muhammad Ali puts it, “Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them. A desire, a dream, a vision.” One of the things Shelly-Ann can be proud of is her understanding of this truth.
【1】What did the sprinting world think of Shelly-Ann before the 2008 Olympic Games?
A．She would become a promising star.
B．She badly needed to set higher goals.
C．Her sprinting career would not last long.
D．Her talent for sprinting was known to all.
【2】What made Maxime decide to train her daughter on the track?
A．Her success and lessons in her career.
B．Her interest in Shelly-Ann’s quick profit.
C．Her wish to get Shelly-Ann out of poverty.
D．Her early entrance into the sprinting world.
【3】What can we infer from Shelly-Ann's statement underlined in Paragraph 5?
A．She was highly rewarded for her efforts.
B．She was eager to do more for her country.
C．She became an athletic star in her country.
D．She was the envy of the whole community.
【4】What is the best title for the passage?
A．The Making of a Great Athlete

22、The Party of Their Lives
In Los Angeles’s infamous Skid Row, there are hundreds of children living on the streets or in shelters. It’s a place where dreams go to die. But one couple is determined to use their own experience with loss to foster a sense of hope.
In 2013, Mary Davis and her husband lost their first unborn kid. Refusing to let the heartbreak break them, they became volunteers in a Skid Row homeless shelter. They found that many of the kids there had never had a single birthday party before, so they decided to throw a birthday party for those homeless kids. They took over a room in the Union Rescue Mission and filled it with streamers, gifts and a cake. The kids were so excited that they made their own music — singing and clapping and, of course, laughing.
Since then, the couple have thrown a party each and every month. They routinely attract 250 kids and their parents. An hour before each party, volunteers arrive to set up the decorations and activities: face painting, balloon artists, a DJ, cake, and pizza. There are small presents for the kids celebrating their birthdays, but the Davis make sure there are more than enough to go around.
“I remember a mom came with her kid,” Mary says. “It was their first night at the shelter, and her child had a birthday. We had an extra gift for her — pink headphones. The little girl was so excited. And her mom... she’s crying. ‘I never imagined we would ever need to be in a shelter. I didn’t know what to expect. But I really didn’t expect a birthday party for my child.’ she cried with happiness.”
Doing her best to normalize these kids’ lives is both heartwarming and bittersweet, Mary says. “If you look outside, you see homeless person after homeless person on the street, and it reminds you that these kids don’t get to leave this area after the party.”
It may be why, after throwing 88 parties, she still cries after each one. She credits the kids in the shelter with helping her hold on to hope. “We didn’t realize how much joy they were going to bring us,” she told CBS News. “And it was so healing for both kids and us.”

23、Decision-thinking is not unlike poker—it often matters not only what you think, but also what others think you think what you think they think you think. The mental process(过程) is similar. Naturally, this card game has often been of considerable interest to people who are, by any standards, good thinkers.
The great mathematician John von Neumann was one of the founders of game theory. In particular, he showed that all games fall into two classes; there are what he called games of ‘perfect information’, games like chess where the players can't hide anything or play tricks; they don't win by chance, but by means of logic and skills. Then there are games of ‘imperfect information’, like poker, in which it is impossible to know in advance that one course of action is better than another.
One mistaken idea about business is that it can be treated as a game of perfect information. Quite the reverse Business, life itself are games which we must normally play with very imperfect information. Business decisions are often made with many unknown and unknowable factors(因素), which would even puzzle (困惑) best poker players. But few business people find it comfortable to admit that they are taking a chance, and many still prefer to believe that they are playing chess, not poker.
【1】The subject discussed in this text is ________.
A. the process of reaching decisions
B. the difference between poker and chess
C. the secret of making good business plans
D. the value of information in winning games
【2】An important factor in a game of imperfect information is ________.
A. rules B. luck C. time D. ideas
【3】Which of the following can be used in place of "Quite the reverse" in paragraph 3?
A. Quite right. B. True enough.
C. Most unlikely. D. Just the opposite.
【4】In the writer's opinion, when making business decisions one should ________.
A. put perfect information before imperfect information
B. accept the existence of unknown factors
C. regard business as a game of chess
D. mix known and unknown factors
24、 We all carry fear, and accepting the type of fear you carry is the first step in punishing past it. So, here’s a breakdown of the fear archetypes(典型) and how to make them work for you. We also invited Dr. Alicia Hodge to give us her feedback in a few of them.
The procrastinator(拖延症患者)
The procrastinators often obsess(痴迷于) over the outcome of whatever they’re doing and insist on it being perfect. Because of this, they tend to spend too much time planning and researching instead of simply diving in.
For procrastinators, it’s important to push past that fear of starting. Hodge suggests setting a deadline for when your planning and researching period will end and when you’ll actually get started.
The people pleaser
Those who have the people-pleaser archetype struggle with the fear of being judged and worry most about disappointing others. They have a hard time setting clear boundaries and saying “no.”
“Having boundaries often sounds scary to someone who is used to putting others first” Hodge says. “Remind yourself that you deserve to be prioritized, just as much as other people in your life.”
The self-doubter
This archetype is dominated by the fear of not being good enough, those who self-doubt tend to feel not confident about their capabilities.
A good way to overcome self-doubt is to step outside your comfort zone every once in a while – and take note of the outcome. Practice being proactive about your life, you’ll be surprised to see just how much you are capable of.
【1】What probably is Dr. Alice Hodge?
A.An editor B.A reporter
C.A psychologist D.A teacher
【2】What is the underlined phrase “diving in” in the second paragraph mean?
A.Swimming in B.Jumping into
C.Starting doing D.Escaping from
【3】How to overcome self-doubt?
A.Setting a deadline for your work. B.Putting yourself first.
C.Ignoring others’ judgement. D.Taking an active part in life.

26、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。
For years, Levinson, an experienced teacher in a severely disadvantaged neighborhood, knew that her young students had it rough—some were homeless, many were in foster care, others were jammed into garages or single rooms with eight to ten other family members—so she made sure that she was good to them every holiday season.
It was hard to do on a teacher’s salary, but from the post-Thanksgiving return until the Christmas break, every day Levinson managed to bring the kids some little holiday gifts—a packet of sweets, a pencil, or something. No matter how small the gift, her students were always grateful. And there was a good chance it would outshine whatever their families could afford to give them.
Then the pandemic hit and the district switched to online learning. Zoom(视频会议软件) opened the educators’ eyes to many other physical hardships their students faced. For Levinson, it was a peek (窥视) behind the curtains into her students’ home lives—and what she saw broke her heart.
One kindergartner spent her daily six hours of Zoom squatting(蹲着) at the back of a store while her father worked. Others attended virtual class in the rooms where their families were temporarily sheltering. On screen, some students had several brothers and sisters in the background, all sharing one bed and doing online school for various grades. Levinson began to hear a common complaint that they’d be trying to type on the computer, and that their little fingers were cold. In the winter, the temperatures dropped to 14 degree below zero, and a lot of the kids were working in unheated spaces.
Levinson knew she had to do something. But on her limited means, how could she possibly keep all her students warm? She created a simple wish list on Amazon: a blanket for each student to drive away the cold. “Help Keep My Students Warm and Bundled on Zoom,” she wrote. Her plea (请求) had spread rapidly.
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。
Levinson started receiving donations from kind persons.
