A
On September 17, 2022, a father and son set out to begin the first of three legs of the Ironman competition in Oxford. David, 59, and his son, John, 28, weren’t the typical competitors. Despite difficulty in walking, John has his dream of being an athlete. His father would act as his arms and legs, carrying the weight of his son throughout the race.
To qualify as having finished, competitors must complete a hard 140 miles of swimming, bicycling and running in under 17 hours. David and John had participated together in five Ironman competitions, but they had yet to finish in the required time.
The race began with a 2.4-mile swim in the Choptank River. With one end of a rope tied to a belt around his back and the other end to a boat with his son inside, the father eased himself into the water. Swimming while carrying another person is tough enough — David also had to fight with jellyfish (水母).
The pair completed the swim in 90 minutes, and went through with the 112-mile bicycle ride in about nine hours, then set their sights on the final leg of the 26.2-mile marathon with David pushing John in the racing chair.
With minutes left and 200 feet to the finish line, his mom, on the sidelines, handed him the rolling walker. Not that long ago, John could hardly walk 23 steps. But after years of painful training, he increased his step count and was determined to finish the race on his own. He knew time was almost running out and worried they wouldn’t make the cutoff. “Not because I wouldn’t get my moment,” he says, “but because dad had worked so hard.”
After 16 hours, 55 minutes and 35 seconds — with just four minutes and 25 seconds to spare — father and son crossed the finish line together.
As the crowd flooded and cheered on John, the weary father kept a low profile. “He didn’t want his finish line moment,” says John. “He wanted it to be mine.”
1. How did David help his son in the swimming part
A. By pulling a rope tied to a boat. B. By swimming beside his son.
C. By pushing his son’s lifebelt. D. By carrying his son on his back.
2. Why did John worry about not making the cutoff
A. He wouldn’t get his moment.
B. His mom would be disappointed.
C. His father had put in lots of effort.
D. The audience had high expectations.
3. What can best describe David’s role as a father
A. Responsible and selfless. B. Brave and honest.
C. Committed and friendly. D. Gentle and determined.
B
Every morning in graduate school, Christy would wave to the woman selling hot dogs outside her building. “If she wasn’t there on a given day, things didn’t feel right. I missed her,” says Christy, now a psychology (心理学) expert at a university in the U.K. “It was this huge source of comfort and safety, and it was with someone I never talked to.”
That connection satisfied a deep, bodily need for Christy, just like water relieves thirst. Humans are intensely social animals, and research increasingly suggests that losing our connections to others can negatively impact our health. A 2023 report called widespread loneliness in the U.S. a deadly health risk comparable to smoking up to15 cigarettes (香烟) a day. On the other hand, a Harvard study found that having strong relationships is key to living a long and happy life. The study also showed that people between 80 and 89 years old in happy marriages reported that their happiness remained stable even on days when they were in greater physical pain.
But close relationships aren’t the only social ties that matter. Chatting with a stranger, giving a smile of recognition to the waiter in your local coffee shop, or waving to the people you see every day at the park creates a much-needed sense of community. “We can’t achieve happiness by ourselves. We simply cannot survive or live well without feeling like we are accepted,” says Christy.
These “weak tie” relationships aren’t a replacement for the deeper, more meaningful connections we also need. But Christy says we should recognize and celebrate their importance, and push ourselves to engage in them because they’re so beneficial to our sense of well-being. “I am not outgoing,” she says. “And, at the same time, I love talking to strangers. I believe that anyone can do it.”
4. How did Christy feel when she couldn’t see the woman as usual
A Safe. B. Disappointed. C. Angry. D. Satisfied.
5. What did the Harvard study find
A. Older adults feel happier in marriages.
B. Physical pain negatively affects happiness.
C. Close relationships lead to long-term well-being.
D. Happiness has little to do with social connections.
6. Why are “weak tie” relationships meaningful
A. They contribute to our happiness. B. They help us to be outgoing.
C. They replace close relationships. D. They push us to communicate.
7. What is the best title for the passage
A. Advantages of Being Lonely B. Influence of Meeting New People
C. Value of Strong Social Connections D. Importance of “Weak Tie” Relationships
C
Young babies make many short and word-like sounds such as “ba” or “aga”. Those early sounds are later replaced with words and, eventually, sentences. While some of them are born to be more talkative than others, a new study confirms that male babies make more sounds than female babies in the first year.
While the research confirms earlier findings from a much smaller study by the same team, they still come as a surprise. That’s because there’s a common and long-held belief that females have an advantage over males in language.
In the study, Dr Kim and his team included more than 450,000 hours of all-day recordings of 5,899 babies, using a device about the size of an iPod. Those recordings were processed to count the number of words spoken by babies and adults across the first two years of life.
Generally, the data showed that male babies made 10% more sounds in the first year compared to females. In the second year, the difference turned directions, with female babies making about 7% more sounds than males. Those differences were observed even though the number of words spoken by adults caring for those babies was higher for female babies in both years compared to males.
Why, then, would male babies be more talkative than females in the first year and not later “We think it may be because boys are more likely to die in the first year than girls. Given that so many male deaths happen in the first year, boys may have been under especially high selection pressure to produce fitness signals to express their wellness and improve their chances of surviving,” says Kim. By the second year of life, as death rates drop sharply across the board, he added, “the pressure on special fitness signaling is lower for both boys and girls.”
8. Why are the findings of the new study surprising
A. They are similar to earlier ones.
B. They show males are more talkative.
C. They go against people’s common belief.
D. They show babies learn language differently
9. What did the study find about male babies in the second year
A. They received more language input.
B. They showed better language abilities.
C. They communicated more with adults.
D. They made less sounds than female babies.
10. What might cause the change in sound production for male babies
A. Improved language skills. B. Change in living environment.
C. Less need for fitness signaling. D. Increase in social communication.

Do Animals Have Friends
When you see little animals playing together around a tree, or a cat and dog sleeping together in the living room, do you ever think — are they friends One expert, Mike, believes that many animals do have friends. If they’re in the same group, they greet one another, travel together, play together and even share food with each other. ____11____
Playing together helps animals keep them close to the group. Wild dogs who don’t play much are more likely to leave the group on their own. ____12____ If an animal has a special friend, both friends benefit by having someone to watch out for them. In the case of a young rhino (犀牛) going on its first journey, it may look for an older travel friend. ____13____
Sharing is another important part of friendship. For all animals, finding food is a matter of life and death. For some bats in Central and South America, if they don’t get a blood meal every three days, they die of hunger. ____14____ If a bat doesn’t find food, a full bat will throw up some blood from its stomach into the mouth of the hungry friend.
But sometimes members of a group also compete for food and mates, which can lead to fights. So making up after fights is a key skill. Sometimes after two male monkeys have a fight, they will sit apart, avoiding each other. ____15____ An older female monkey may need to step in to play peace-maker. She will walk up to one of them, kiss or touch him, then slowly walk toward the other. Then she sits close to the second male. Both start grooming (梳毛) her. When she leaves, they continue to groom each other, as if to say, “We’re cool now.”
A. Each wants the other to make the first move.
B. Young animals often team up for protection.
C. But hungry bats don’t need to worry if they have friends.
D. And leaving the protection of the group can be dangerous.
E. These friendly behaviors can be important for an animal to survive.
F. The friend helps to find food and water, and avoid dangerous animals.
G. Bats take blood from sleeping animals, but they are surprisingly good friends.

【答案】Dear Peter,
I hope this email finds you well. I’m writing to tell you about the English Textbook Drama Competition that was held at my school last week.
The competition was intense, with many talented students participating. We all prepared for weeks beforehand, practicing our lines and perfecting our performances. On the day of the competition, we performed in front of a large audience. Despite feeling nervous, I gave it my all and had a great time on stage.
Participating in the competition taught me a lot about teamwork and communication. I also gained confidence in my public speaking skills and learned to overcome my nerves when performing in front of others.
I genuinely hope the information shared excites your interest.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
