21、By CUI JIA | China Daily | Updated: 2022-02-12 Snowboarding pioneer Shaun White took his final bow at the bottom of the halfpipe course (U型槽) at the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games on Friday, officially marking the end of his long and storied career as a professional snowboarder. No matter how hard the 35-year-old tried to hold back his emotions, it just got to be too much.
Although he wanted to do his best by performing two 1440s during his final run, he fell while attempting his second double cork 1440. Despite the fall, everyone cheered for the snowboarding legend at Genting Snow Park in Zhangjiakou as he stood back up and continued down the halfpipe. “Siding on my back, I was thinking, this isn’t how I wanted it to go.You don’t always get what you want, but I have to be thankful for everything I do have and what I have gotten in my career and that’s why I’m very emotional. I can’t believe it’s over.It’s wild,” said White, who finished in fourth place.
From a young age, snowboarding was what White wanted to do more than anything. At 19, White took part in his first Winter Olympics in Turin in 2006 and scored gold.The victory changed his life forever and he became the sport’s global superstar.
Meanwhile, he continued to push his limits by landing the first double cork in halfpipe and inventing the double McTwist 1260. Those tricks brought him three Olympic gold medals, as well as injuries, including the brutal (残酷的) crash in 2018 when he slammed his head against the top of a superpipe, leading to 62 stitches (缝合) in his face in the lead-up to the Pyeongchang 2018 Winter Olympics.
“T’m not competing’ doesn’t mean I won’t be here at the next Winter Olympics cheering on all my friends,” he said. “The future for me is so exciting. There is so much to do and so much to live for. This is just the beginning for me.”

22、 The view from the top of Marina Bay Sands, a giant hotel, mall and casino, takes in the skyscrapers of Singapore, the fleets of ships entering and leaving the city's ports, the scattered tropical islands of the Singapore Strait and the crowds of soggy but determined selfie- takers trying to capture a perfect image of it all from the enormous infinity pool. Among the celebrities the hotel has lured (吸引) for a damp snap are Jing Boran and Fu Xinbo, Chinese film and music stars. China Daily, a Chinese state-owned newspaper, has declared the spot the eighth most romantic in the world. The place displays itself all over Chinese social media and offers special discounts and packages to visitors from China.
Such spin is increasingly important. Last year, for the first time, China was the biggest source of tourists to Singapore, accounting for 3. 2m of its 17. 4m visitors. Between January and September alone they spent more than $3bn ($ 2.3bn).
All across South-East Asia， tourism is booming. The number of visitors jumped by 49% between 2010 and 2015， to more than 109m. Tourism in Asia and the Pacific is growing faster than anywhere else in the world. The region receives a quarter of the world's holidaymakers (Europe’s share is still a half).
South-East Asia’s Edenic islands, ancient temples and delicious food are strong enticements (诱惑，怂恿). Visitors also flock to countries with cheap currencies: the weakness of the ringgit last year helped draw visitors to Malaysia, for example. Many countries in the region depend on the cash: tourism accounts for about 28% of Cambodia’s GDP and more than 20% of Thailand’s.
The most remarkable growth has been in tourists from China. The number visiting South-East Asia has increased fivefold over the past decade. Newly wealthy Chinese spent almost $ 26lbn travelling abroad in 2016, up from $73bn in 2011.
Indonesia, for one, has relaxed its visa rules to attract more of them. More seats on cheap flights have also helped pull in tourists: between 2013 and 2016 the number available each week on flights to South East Asia from China increased from 92,000 to 188,500.
But for the frenzied holidaying to continue to grow, infrastructure must improve, reckons Paul Yong of DBS, a Singaporean bank. Airports in places such as Manila and Jakarta are crumbling and surrounded by snaking traffic. Plans are afoot to increase annual capacity at Bangkok’s airports by tens of millions over the next four years. Hanoi’s Noi Bai will be expanded at a cost of $5.5bn to accommodate 35m passengers by 2020. Airports in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur are to be upgraded too.
Other threats to thriving tourism are far harder to plan around, Travel operators tremble at the thought of economic downturns, volcanic eruptions and epidemic diseases. The head of one luxury holiday company says the regional outbreak of SARS, a respiratory disease, more than 15 years ago almost brought the industry to its knees. Political spats between China and its neighbours are another problem. So too is the manner in which Chinese visitors have been vilified in the region for snaffling prawns at buffets, barging into queues and misbehaving on planes. It makes many of them feel unwanted. But given that just 135m of China's 1. 4bn people have ever travelled abroad, South East Asian countries should prepare to welcome many more Chinese — even when they clog up the infinity pool.
【1】What can Marina Bay Sands be defined as?
A.A base for making films and musicals.
B.A complex for consumption and recreation.
C.A romantic spot for newly-married couples.
D.A financial center for international businessmen.
【2】Who account for the biggest share of holidaymakers to South-East Asia?
A.Locals. B.Chinese. C.Singaporeans. D.Europeans.
【3】Which of the following factors may attract more foreigners to South-East Asia?
A.The convenient transportation.
B.The improvement of local security.
C.The relatively economical prices.
D.The extreme poorness in that region.
【4】Which may NOT explain the sharp growth in tourists from China?
A.The rise of Chinese financial capacity.
B.The strong desire to consume in cash.
C.Various preferential treatments in that region.
D.Rich resources of tourism in these countries.
【5】What is the top priority of these South-East Asian countries?
A.To upgrade their basic facilities.
B.To advertise their quality service.
C.To weaken their cheap currencies.
D.To slow down the growth in tourism.
【6】What should Chinese visitors pay attention to while traveling in that area?
A.They should mind their manners.
B.They should handle political conflicts.
C.They should prevent epidemic diseases.
D.They should avoid natural disasters.
23、65-year-old Somerset native Carole-Ann Warburton experienced a plot twist that led to the fulfillment of a long-cherished dream she’d never even spoken of aloud.
After a life-threatening illness weakened her, Warburton was left with the question of what to do forward. During her recovery, her daughter brought around some real estate (房地产) listings for the sort of homes in which she thought her mother might best spend her golden years. Coincidentally, among the notices was an offering for a small barbershop with an above-stairs apartment.
For Warburton, although she admits “the place was awful”, it was love at first sight and the perfect opportunity to do something she’d yearned to do for almost as long as she could remember—running a bookshop.
Less than three months after coming to her decision, Warburton had handed in her retirement notice, sold her house and bought the store, and using a personal collection totaling between 8,000 and 9,000 titles she began her new life chapter—The Book Rest.
Warburton has been an avid (狂热的) book collector since she was a child. As an adult, she married a man with a similar hobby. The four-bedroom home she and her ex-husband shared with their children was filled with books.
Warburton admits learning to let go of her beloved books was a bit of an adjustment, but one she feels better for making. “It still feels, when a special book goes out, like a bit of a loss—as if some little part of me has been taken away,” she said in an interview. “And then I make common sense come back to me and say, ‘Let someone else learn from it.’ It’s acceptance.”
The Book Rest recently celebrated its 10th anniversary. Although the pandemic has slowed foot traffic, since Warburton’s driving motive isn’t monetary profit, but rather, something of a deep personal value, she has no plan to close up the bookstore.
【1】What was the turning point in Warburton’s life?
A．Being forced to retire earlier.
B．Starting to work for a barber.
C．Suffering from a serious illness.
D．Buying a house for her daughter.
【2】What does the underlined word “yearned” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Volunteered.
B．Managed.
C．Declined.
D．Desired.
【3】Paragraph 5 is mainly intended to show ________.
A．how Warburton got a large collection of books
B．why Warburton had a love for collecting books
C．how Warburton got on with her family members
D．why Warburton was willing to let go of books
【4】What does The Book Rest mean to Warburton?
A．A path leading to a large fortune.
B．A way to realize her personal value.
C．A reminder of kindness in hard times.
D．A temporary inspiration for dreamers.
24、 Upright farming is a hugely promising agricultural technique that aims to produce more food to meet the growing population on our limited planet. Techniques include growing in vertical frames (垂向框架) or even in high-rise farms while moving farms into urban areas, and producing nutritious crops without topsoil.
Vertical farmers plant crops in nutrient-rich water, so plants can be raised without soil. They also grow plants using water from fish tanks, or using nutrient water mist systems that reduce water use by more than 90 per cent, which was a technique developed by NASA as a way for astronauts to grow in space and feed themselves without soil while preserving precious water supplies. All of these soil-less growing techniques use less or no chemicals, and recycle water with less waste. Plants can be sown and harvested year-round, free from bad weather conditions such as drought or flooding.
“This is the farming of the future," said Paul Myers, co-founder of vertical farming enterprise Farm Urban. "Chemical-free and moving from the traditional horse and tractor agriculture that is steadily destroying the planet to a more sustainable approach."
The global vertical farming market is expected to be six times bigger in 2026 than it is today. This is fueled in part by rising demand for organic, chemical-free foods, but also by countries looking to increase their food security and cut down on imports — the UK for example uses more than 70 per cent of its land mass for agriculture but imports more than half of its food.
As the vertical farming industry expands, it is worth noting that it has limitations — it only works for some crops, and urban locations can be expensive.
【1】Where will upright farming be popular in the future?
A．In cities.
B．In plains.
C．In deserts.
D．In the countryside.
【2】What do the techniques mentioned in paragraph 2 have in common?
A．Waste-free.
B．Nutrient-rich.
C．Soil-saving.
D．Waterproof.
【3】Why is upright farming promising?
A．The trade routes are not secure.
B．Organic food is increasingly popular.
C．The economic benefit is substantial.
D．Imports are becoming more difficult.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A．Upright Farming： How To Save Soil And Water
B．Upright Farming: What To Plant In The New Way
C．Vertical Farming: Raising Agriculture’s Potential
D．Vertical Farming： Lowering Environmental Impact

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。
When I was in school I remembered my best friend called me late night on Saturday to invite me to her birthday party next day. I was very happy and very excited to go there but I needed to ask permission from my parents. I went to my dad’s room and slowly asked him, “Dad, tomorrow is my best friend’s birthday party and I really want to go.” Dad said, “OK I don’t mind but ask your mom.” I went to Mom and said, “Dear Mom.” Suddenly she replied, “What do you want?” I was shocked, “Mom, how do you know that I need to say something?” She said, “The way you are talking shows that.” and she smiled. I asked her, “Mom, I want to go to my best friend’s birthday party tomorrow.” She said, “OK, you can go but you have to be back before 10.”
Then my preparations started. I made a card for my friend and started selecting cloths for the party, and finally everything was completed and I went to sleep and only one thing was there in my mind all the time THE PARTY. I was waiting for the night to end and the party to begin. Next morning, my mom was surprised to see me. No alarm, no Mom’s warming, just I woke up by myself.
The whole day had passed and now it was party time. My dad dropped me in my friend’s place and told me that he would be back at 10. I said, “OK, OK” and I ran away. I enjoyed a lot at the party. My friend loved that card which I made for her and everybody in the party loved my dress. I was on cloud nine. We had dinner, we played so many games and it was 10 finally. I remembered my mom’s advice that I should be back till 10.
