Living a Life Full of Wild Adventures
Helen Skelton was brought up on a remote farm, and her family wasn't full of "runners and rock climbers". However, she has since travelled the world on 【1】 series of record breaking adventures. The former Blue Peter presenter has kayaked(划皮划艇)down the Amazon River, cycled to the South Pole and done a tightrope walk between the chimneys of Batter-sea Power Station in London. Now, Skelton 【2】 (share) the secrets of her success in a new book called Wild Girl: How to Have Incredible Outdoor Adventures.
【3】 she's got plenty of stamps in her passport, Skelton says you don't need to go to the Amazon or Antarctica in order to have an adventure - there's plenty to do here in the UK. She grew up in Cumbria, and would go bike-riding and skateboarding with her mum, as well as building rafts. She hopes to pass on these adventures to her own children.
Despite the title, Skelton says that the book isn't just for girls. She believes adventure is a leveller - an activity 【4】 men and women are equal. Adventures 【5】 also be educational. Skelton says when you're at the mercy of the elements you have to adapt and be flexible, which is a great lesson for life.
Of all the places she 【6】 (be) to, Skelton says the South Pole was particularly hard. "It's like living in a freezer. It's the windiest, driest, coldest place on Earth." Skelton explains, "You can't even put up your tent, which is your only shelter, 【7】 putting on huge gloves, otherwise you'll get a frostbite. 【8】 (put) up a tent in oven gloves isn't easy."
Her advice to any aspiring adventurers would be to "not worry about 【9】 comments other people might make. When I said I'm going to kayak the Amazon, people told me that's madness. And, if I had listened to them, I never would have done 【10】 of it. So just try."

【题目】 The cracked (有裂缝的) step four years ago was the start of it. That day, I awoke tired—the children were tiny and needing so much—and I had a golden afternoon of rest ahead, my mother stepping in to allow me to catch up on my sleep. I dropped them off and drove home—the sun shining and my bed signaling. As I was about to enter the house, I caught sight of a deep crack beneath my feet.
Without thinking, I turned around, walked back to the car and drove to a DIY store. Four hours later, I had all the tools, had mixed my own cement (水泥), filled in the crack and repaired the foundation. Perfect. As I stood up to take a photo of my handiwork, I realized that I was trembling. I’d forgotten my shot at a nice long nap, and my children were already on their way home. That sleep... that promise to self was broken, because I had focused, instead, on the crack in the step.
Suddenly, everything started to hurt. My head, my throat, my back. I couldn’t stop shaking. What earned then is that when we break the promises we make to our bodies they will not be silenced. This is when we overwork and overthink to the point of breaking down. Ironically (讽刺地), for many of us, it is only when we have no choice— when we fall ill—that we learn to listen. For me, when that crack ended in a hospital stay which sent me to bed for two unmoving weeks while my body worked to clear two different infections, the lesson is ever present. I did it to myself—a whole twisted spin on DIY.
Sadly it took another two ridiculous DIY projects to finally get through. The cracks will never be fully filled. Focus, then, on your own inner core the feeding of that light, that fire and that strength.
【1】What made the author so sleepy in the first place?
A.Taking care of the kids.B.Visiting her mother.
C.Doing the housework.D.Dealing with DIY projects.
【2】How did the author feel as soon as she finished her repair work?
A.Regretful.B.Upset.
C.Proud.D.Thankful.
【3】What can be implied from Paragraph 3?
A.Our health is ignored deliberately.
B.Our body will respond to what we do.
C.The author took her mother’s advice.
D.The author stayed in hospital for two weeks.
【4】What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A.To present a way to fill a crack.
B.To show the danger of DIY.
C.To stress the importance of sleep.
D.To encourage focusing on oneself.

【题目】 Huawei Technologies Co. displayed its much-anticipated in-house operating system Harmony OS on Friday, marking what some call the Chinese tech giant’s biggest push yet to build its own software ecosystem for the era of the internet of things.
The move is also expected to weaken the influence of the United States government’s restrictions on Huawei using Google’s Android operating system in smartphones, analysts said.
Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei’s consumer business group, speaking in Dongguan, Guangdong province, said it is difficult to deliver a smooth experience across different devices with the huge amount of codes involved in the Android and Linux operating systems. Linux is an open-source operating system widely used in personal computers and other hardware.
“Harmony is a next-generation operating system designed to address the challenge,” Yu said, adding that it will be able to support a wide range of application situations, including smart TVs, automobiles and wearables.
The internet of things refers to a network of devices and other objects that can connect with each other and exchange data.
Yu said the US government’s restrictions have accelerated the company’s marketing of the system, which now has about 4,000 employees working on it.
The senior executive said Harmony can be used in its smartphones. But Android is still Huawei’s preferred choice for handsets if the company is allowed to use it.
“But when Android is not available, Harmony can be applied immediately to smartphones. Harmony is ready,” Yu added.
Jia Mo, an analyst at market research company Canalys, said even if Huawei does not use Harmony in its smartphones in the short term, its smartwatches and smart TVs can be equipped with Harmony to widen its use and accumulate more experience in building an ecosystem.
“Also, more importantly, Huawei chose to build Harmony into an open-source operating system and allow it to be compatible with Android. Thus Harmony will be more accepted by current Android users. This will prevent Huawei from repeating the fate of Microsoft in promoting smartphone systems,” Jia said. Microsoft failed to popularize the use of its Windows system in smartphones years ago.
【1】What is the significance of the Harmony OS?
A.It symbolizes Huawei has finished its own software ecosystem.
B.It may reduce the threat from US government’s restrictions.
C.It will accumulate more experience in building an ecosystem.
D.It successfully borrows from Microsoft's Windows system.
【2】Which of the following may take the place of the underlined word “compatible” in the last paragraph?
A.Used harmoniously.B.Operated quickly.
C.Resisted fiercely.D.Monitored closely.
【3】Where may we find this article?
A.Fashion magazines.B.TV interviews.
C.Historic documents.D.News websites.
