Dragon boating is a team sport that has its root in ancient China. The boats are decorated with a dragon head and tail. In recent years cancer survivor groups have got involved in the sport to help make friends and help rebuild their lives.
On a recent Saturday morning, a group of 20 women were on a boat in the Anacostia River in Washington DC. They moved their paddles(船桨)in rhythm to the call of a coach. The women belong to the dragon boat team GoPink! DC, which trains weekly. It also races against other breast cancer survivor teams in dragon boat festivals. As a result, GoPink! DC won medals in this Washington dragon boat festival.
Lydia Collins joined five years ago after finding out she had breast cancer. “I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I was demoralized because of my illness - I lost all interest in life and wouldn't even get out of bed to eat. But now I love the team spirit. I just love everything about it. It is like a floating support group on the water.”
The paddles are breast cancer survivors and their supporters. Annette Rothemel helped establish(建立)the group in 2006. She is a researcher with the National Institutes of Health as well as a breast cancer survivor. “It is sort of an easy entry sport because on the same boat people at different levels can be doing the same sport.” But Ms Rothemel saysdragon boating can be physically demanding, especially for someone who is sick and getting treatment for cancer.
“It’s hard but I think you have to challenge yourself in life. This is something I look forward to. I get to be out here with my sisters and supporters that understand what I’m going through and help motivate me. So it makes me stronger and it makes me feel better,” another cancer survivor Rhonda Hartzel said.
Annette Rothemel says the cancer survivors feel a sense of sisterhood and share good times when they paddle together. She says both feelings are treasured by the team. 4. What do the underline wordsdemoralizedIn para.3 probably mean?
A. depressed B. anxious C. astonished D. awkward 5. What can we know about Lydia Collims from the text? A. she helps establish Go Pink !DC B. she tries to find a cure for the cancer C. she benefits from the dragon boat race
D. she gives up hope because of her illness
6. How can the dragon boat race help the cancer survivors A. forget their tough experiences B. recover physically and mentally C. get rid of the pains of their cancer D. enjoy their rest life without sufferings
7. What does the text tell us about Annette Rothemel? A. she is an expert in studying the cause of the cancer B. she helps the cancer survivors in financial difficulties
C. she believes there is a healthful result from the dragon boat race D. she thinks it unwise for the patient to join in the dragon boat race
C
Have you ever noticed that some people can eat what they want and stay in shape, while others carefully watch what they eat and still put on weight? How annoying! However, scientists are beginning to believe that some people get the ability to stay thin from their parents.
Scientists say that when some people eat, their bodies will naturally store the excess energy from food as fat. These people gain weight if they eat more than they need each day. Meanwhile, other people eat more than they need but their bodies are able to “burn off” the extra food without making fat, so they rarely have weight problems.
To show that this is true, scientists have experimented on laboratory mice. They gave the mice a special diet with a lot of fat. Some mice gained weight while the other mice stayed thin, even though both groups of mice ate the same amount of food and got the same amount of exercise. Scientists concluded that weight gain seemed to be influenced by genetic (基因的) factors. They also believe they have now identified the genes that may cause this tendency. These genes, according to the scientists, get passed down the generations. Armed with this knowledge, they believe it may be possible to develop medicines thatcan target the genes and stop people from gaining weight.
The study of weight gain is becoming more important as the numbers of people who are overweight continues to grow. In theUnited States, over seventy percent of the population have weight problems. This means they are at risk of illness such as high blood pressure and heart disease.
Current medicines for weight control do not work very well because they can have serious side effects, such
as heart problems. However, it takes a long time to develop and thoroughly test new drugs. Therefore, despite this breakthrough in the study of weight-loss drugs, scientists and health professionals all agree that currently the best way to control weight gain is to have a healthy, balanced diet and an active lifestyle with daily exercise. This will not only help people avoid becoming overweight, but also help them stay healthy and energetic. 8. According to the scientists, some people ________. A. are able to stay thin because of genetic factors B. can eat what they want and stay healthy forever C. usually keep doing exercise to lose their weight D. don’t eat anything every day but still put on weight
9. Some people don’t need to worry about weight problems because ________. A. they eat many vegetables B. they eat less than others
C. they don’t store any energy from food as fat D. they can burn off the extra food without making fat 10. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Fewer people will have weight problems in the future. B. People with weight problems may suffer from heart trouble. C. We now have good medicine for people with weight problems. D. The result of the experiments on mice and humans are different. 11. What does the last paragraph imply? A. Current medicine solve weight problems well. B. We should exercise regularly and eat properly. C. Taking exercise every day may cause heart problems. D. Testing new drugs is hard because of the side effects.

Every racehorse has different abilities．Like humans，some are short- distance runners，while others are marathoners．Figuring out which is which and how to pace them can be the difference between failure in the finish and taking the award home．Jockeys（赛马骑师）and trainers have traditionally relied on centuries of experience and data from previous races to plan their races．
Amandine Aftalion，a mathematician in Paris，thought she could add to that．Since 2013，she has been
analyzing the performances of world champion runners like Usain Bolt．She has found that short-distance runners tend to win when they start strong and gradually slow down toward the finish line．Butin medium-distance races，runners perform better when they start strong，settle down，and finish with a burst of speed．
Her model shows how those winning strategies maximize the energy output of muscles reliant on two different pathways：powerful aerobic（有氧的）ones that require oxygen，which can be in limited supply during a race，and anaerobic ones，which don't need oxygen but build up waste products that lead to tiredness．
Aftalion wondered which strategy would be best for horses．So she and Quentin Mercier，anothermathematician，took advantage of a new GPS tracking tool inserted in French racing saddles（马鞍）．
The two studied patterns in many races at the Chantilly racetracks north of Paris and developed a model that accounted for winning strategies for three different races：a short one(1，300 meters)，a medium one (1,900 meters)，and a slightly longer one (2,100 meters)，all with different starting points on the same track．The model takes into account not just different race distances，but also the size or friction fromthe track surface．
The results might surprise jockeys who hold horses back early for bursts of energy in the last finish．Instead，a strong start leads to a better finish，the team found．“That doesn't mean those jockeys are wrong，though．If the start is too strong，it can bedevastatingas well，leaving the horse tired by the end，” Aftalion says． 12. What should a runner do to get an award according to the text? A. Make a good start． B. Plan for the race early．
C. Run slowly on the starting line． D. Try runningquickly all the time． 13. What formed the basis for Aftalion's studying horse race? A The experience and data from previous horse races． B. The benefit of knowing horses' different abilities． C. The success in studying runners' winning strategies． D. The performance of horses on different race distances．
14. What does the underlined word“devastating”in the last paragraph mean?
A. Boring． B. Damaging． C. Astonishing． D. Puzling． 15. What can we infer from the text?
A. Runners have the same energy output of muscles． B. Aftalion's findings may help horses to win the race． C. What Jockeys and trainers do makes no sense to horses． D. World champion runners made a contribution to the study．

The 45-ycar-old Chen Liyan was sweeping the floor at Taiyuan Railway Station early last Tuesday morning when she found a small plastic bag near a chair and discovered 100-000 yuan inside. Chen was shocked but she was determined to return the money to its owner.
While working, Chen watched carefully for anyone who might have been the owner. She waited for over two hours, but having no luck, she went to the nearest police station to turn the money in. There, it was finally returned to its owner, Wang Zheng.
Wang thanked Chen repeatedly and apologized for the inconvenience, even offering her 5.000 yuan as a reward. To his surprise, however, Chen refused, believing that it would be wrong to accept money that she had not earned.
But what is even more surprising, perhaps, is that Chen's daughter, 16-year-old Liu Xia is currently seriously ill. Chen had already spent the last of her savings on the ongoing treatments and has also taken out a large loan.
Fortunately, Ma Dongbao, who works at the police station, stepped in. Living in the same apartment building as Chen's family, Ma was well aware of Chen's difficulties.
When Wang was told about Chen's situation, he decided to do something to help.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A large sum of money was raised and Chen Liyan was interviewed by the local newspaper.
