Anybody who’s noticed so many sweaty Sunday-morning photos on the Internet must think that marathons have recently regained popularity．According to Running USA，an organization that tracks the sport’s growth，52 percent of runners today track themselves with some sort of GPS-enabled device，like a smart phone or a fitness tracker．This statistic has likely played a role in running’s growing appeal--the easily available tracking information has attracted people to the sport，and kept them going，for it’s possible for anyone to see in real time how it’s affecting their bodias.

Today，free smart phone apps can give runners information on things like the number and length of their steps，their heart rate，even the estimated volume of oxygen they consume per minute．All this information can act as a reward and a motivator for the runner．“It’s one thing to hear encouragement from a coach．”Bryan Boyle，editor of Runner’s World magazine，explains．“It’s quite another，however，to appreciate-at a glance-progress made during weeks and months of running．’’

But run—tracking technology doesn’t just help runners train harder. It also gives them the power to train more intelligently．Recreational runners today no longer have to guess how far or how fast they’ve run，or what their body is doing．If they can monitor their heart rate，they can make sure they’re hitting the most strategic pace on each run，which can significantly increase their chances of having a positive experience on the course during race day．

No matter how much technology can promote the experience of running，though，many runners argue that the biggest benefit of the sport remains the chance to get outdoors，away from the computer，for an hour．“There’s so much more to experience，” adds Boyle．“fresh air，travel，shoot，just overall feeling better．There’s no app for that．”

1.We can infer from the first paragraph that ．

A．people enjoy posting sports pictures on the Internet

B．Running USA plays a key role in the growth of running

C．tracking technology is drawing more people on the road

D．run—tracking devices help people run faster than before

2.Which of the following questions are the second and third paragraphs intended to answer?

A．What information can run—tracking devices provide for the runners?

B．How is the run—tracking technology popularizing running?

C．In what way is run—tracking technology developed?

D．Why do people have to rely on wearable devices in modern society?

3.As for the experienced runners，what attracts them most is ．

A．the exciting experience technology brings them

B．a chance to enjoy nature outdoors

C．becoming popular on social media

D．being cool with a new wearable device on the road

Amanda Clement grew up in Hudson, South Dakota. Baseball was always her favorite sport. Once in a while her brother Hank and his friends would let her play first base in their games. More often, however, they asked her to umpire (裁判) for them, because they knew her calls would be fair and there would be no arguing.

One day in 1904, Amanda and her mother traveled to Hawarden, Iowa, to watch Hank play for the home team against Hawarden. When they arrived at the ball field, two local teams were waiting to play a preliminary (预备) game. The umpire hadn’t arrived, so Hank argued that the teams should let his sister serve as umpire. The players finally agreed.

Amanda, then sixteen and standing five feet, ten inches tall, made perfect calls. She was so good that players for the main game asked her to umpire for them and even offered to pay her. Thus, at sixteen, Amanda Clement became the first paid female baseball umpire of all time. She is honored in the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York.

1.Why did Hank and his friends often ask Amanda to umpire for them?

A. Because she called them brothers.

B. Because they wanted to make her happy.

C. Because no one else wanted to do it for them.

D. Because she knew the rules well and was fair.

2.Amanda went to Hawarden in order to ______.

A. serve as umpire

B. watch her brother play

C. make money

D. help the local teams

3.Amanda most probably learned how to umpire a baseball game ______.

A. in her P. E. classes at school

B. in an umpire training school

C. by watching and playing the games

D. from her mother, a baseball umpire

4.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A. The Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown

B. Amanda Clement, First Female Umpire

C. Baseball Games in Hawarden, Iowa

D. A Family of Baseball Fans

If you never read the classic F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The Great Gatsby, now is your chance to catch up — by watching the latest film adaptation. Because if there’s one sentence to sum up the film, it would be, as Fox News says in its review, “It’s just like the book”

Director Baz Luhrmann’s main challenge was “either to find a visual equivalent(相等物) for Fitzgerald’s elegant essay--the open secret of the book’s staying power-- or to bend the material to his own exotic(异国的) strengths,a Time magazine review says. He tries it both ways, with varying degrees of success.

Considered to be Fitzgerald's representative work, The Great Gatsby explores themes of idealism, resistance to change, social change, and excess, creating a portrait of the Jazz Age or the Roaring Twenties that has been described as a cautionary tale regarding the American Dream.

Nick, the narrator, moves to New York for the summer to visit his cousin Daisy. His next-door neighbor is Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), who rarely contacts with others and is rumored to be a hero of the Great War. Gatsby claims to have attended Oxford University, but the evidence is suspect. As Nick learns more about Gatsby, every detail about him seems questionable, except his love for the Daisy. Though Daisy is married, Gatsby still adores her as his ―golden girl.They first met when she was a young lady from a wealthy family and he was a working-class military officer. Daisy promised to wait for his return from the war. However, she married Tom, a classmate of Nick’s. Having obtained a great fortune, Gatsby sets out to win her back again.

”All of Fitzgerald’s original creation finds its way into this film, even going as far to include quite a bit of the original dialogue,US film critic Justin Taroli writes in his review. “The cast is beautiful as is the script, and the scenes are a visual feast.Taroli adds.

DiCaprio does a good and professional job as the socialite by re-creating Fitzgerald’s description of Gatsby’s charm. “He can look at someone for an instant and understand how, perfectly, he or she wants to be seen,David Denby, a film critic for The New Yorker, says in his review.

The use of music is almost reason enough to see the film. “Luhrmann is at his best mixing visual and musical styles together to create something wholly original, the Fox News review said.

For example, in one of the most outstanding scenes in the film, the first party scene, Nick walks quickly from one party guest to another party guest trying to explain all the gossip about Gatsby until he is finally introduced to the man himself, while the most stirring version of Rhapsody in Blue (composed by American musician George Gershwin in 1924) is played in the background.

1.What did Baz Luhrmann do to make the film a success?

A. He adapted the story in the novel as he wished.

B. He made the film more powerful than the book.

C. He mixed his style with the elegance of the essay.

D. He showed the elegance of the pictures in the film.

2.What is Taroli’s attitude towards the film?

A. Favorable. B. Sceptical.

C. Amazed. D. Unconcerned.

3. What are the characteristics of Gatsby?

A. Faithful and warm-hearted.

B. Charming and professional.

C. Selfish and stubborn.

D. Mysterious and devoted.

4.Why does the author give the example of the first party scene in the last paragraph?

A. Unfold the fact that Nick wants to know more about Gatsby.

B. Show the version of Rhapsody in Blue matches the film well.

C. Prove that the director is good at combining visual and music.

D. Convince us that the first scene is perfectly shot by the director.

Last year I ruined my summer vacation by bringing along a modern convenience that was too convenient for my own good: the iPad. Instead of looking at nature, I checked my e-mail. Instead of paddling a small boat, I followed my Twitter feed（推特简讯）. Instead of reading great novels, I stuck to reading four newspapers each morning. I was behaving as if I were still in the office. My body was on vacation, but my head wasn’t.

So this year I made up my mind to try something different: withdrawal（退出）from the Internet. I knew it wouldn’t be easy, since I’m bad at self-control. But I was determined. I started by giving the iPad to my wife.

The cellphone signal at our house was worse than in the past, making my attempts at cheating an experience in frustration （沮丧）. I was trapped, forced to go through with my plan. Largely cut off from e-mail, Twitter and my favorite newspaper websites, I had few ways to connect to the world except for the radio—and how much radio can one listen to, really? I had to do what I had planned to do all along: read books.

This experience has had a happy ending. With determination and the strong support of my wife, I won in my vacation straggle against the Internet, realizing finally that it was I, not the iPad, that was the problem. I knew I had won when we passed a Starbucks and my wife asked if I wanted to stop to use the Wi-Fi. “I don’t need it,” I said.

However, as we return to post-vacation life, a harder test begins: Can I continue when I’m back at work?

There are times when the need to know what’s being said right now is great. I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely. But I hope to resist the temptation （诱惑）to check my e-mail every five minutes, which leads to checking my Twitter feed and a website ortwo.

I think a vacation is supposed to help you reset your brain to become more productive. Here I hope this one worked.

A. He was determined to enjoy the beautiful view.

A. He handed his iPad to his wife.

B. He cut off his cellphone signal.

C. He refused to cheat in his house.

D. He listened to the radio most of the time.

3.When back at work, the author will probably choose to ________.

A. stay away from the Internet for ever

B. continue to road more and more books

C. keep control of when and how to use the Internet

D. stop checking what is being said right now completely

4.What is the author’s opinion of a great vacation in the passage?

A. A vacation is having nothing to do but read all day.

B. A vacation proves that a life of pleasure is overvalued.

C. A vacation is a period of time to do whatever one wishes to.

When I was three, my parents took me to have an operation in India, which stopped my eyesight from deteriorating（恶化）. Several years later we moved to Pakistan, where I received 12 operations within one year and went completely blind. Later, I realized that the doctors used me as an experiment.

I met my husband when he came over from India to study. I wanted to go to India to marry him, but it was almost impossible to emigrate. I made a crazy plan to cross the borders of several countries to get to India. I was arrested in the first country I escaped to. Back in Pakistan, I lost my job and was asked to sign a “never-to-escape” promise. Instead, when I got home, I made a cup of coffee and decided to make a formal application for emigration. The chance was slim, and people who applied to go to India found it hard to find a job in Pakistan while they were waiting. In the end, my husband managed to smooth the way for my emigration. We got married and had children. But after nine years, he died of brain cancer. I was helpless for a while, and then I learned to face reality optimistically. He taught us happiness came from inside us.

Six years ago, I brought home a dog called Moritz from the seeing-eye dog centre. He was short with long ears. No one liked him because of his pathetic（可怜的）appearance. We were almost always together.

Now when I walk down the street, not like before, people will come up and say, “What a good seeing-eye dog!”, and have a little chat with me as a normal creature.
