Zheng Qinwen announced herself as a major new force in women’s tennis with an import French Open
debut (首秀) last month. Now the Chinese teenager hopes the fighting spirit she showed at the Grand Slam
(大满贯) tournament can encourage kids starting out in the sport to chase their dreams on the court with the
same determination.
“If tennis is your dream, I think you always have to fight for your dream. Because we only have one
life, you shouldn’t have any regrets,” Zheng said last week in an interview.
The 19-year-old showed she possesses the talent to be a contender at the very top level of tennis with a
breakout campaign at French Open.
Accounting for two-time Grand Slam winner Simona Halep along the way, Zhengs journey was ended
in the fourth round by a three-set defeat to eventual champion Iga Swiatek. Zheng, though gave the Polish
world No. 1 a big scare, battling back from 3-0 down in the first set to force, and win, a tiebreak (平分决胜
局)。
“That was the first time I had played the world No.1, so I really wanted to grab this chance so I could
judge her level and test myself,” said Zheng. “I didn’t want to give her the match so easy like that. It was
pretty difficult for me to hold on in that match because of what my body was going through, but I wanted to
show her I'm not easily beaten.
Looking back at Zheng Qinwen’s performances in this year’s French Open, there’s no doubt that she’s
a true fighter. Zheng says she avoids being discouraged by higher-ranked opponents by simply focusing on
the next point, one shot at a time.Supported by her team, she hopes she can one day win a Grand Slam title.
Zheng’s impressive French Open run has inevitably led to comparisons with China’s solitary Grand
Slam singles champion Li Na, who won the 2011 French Open and 2014 Australian Open titles.
“When I was a kid, Li Na showed that Asian people also can do something really good in tennis. She
was the first one. I will just focus on my own game and then let’s see if I can really compete at the highest
level,” said Zheng.
24. What does the underlined word “contender” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Organizer. B. Announcer. C. Competitor. D. Designer.
25. What is the result of the match between Zheng and Ign Swiatek?
A. Iga Swiatek beat Zheng easily.
B. Zheng lost to Iga Swiatek at last.
C. Zheng won the match despite her pain.
D. Iga Swiatek lost because of her mistakes.
26. Why is Li Na mentioned in paragraph 7?
A. To explain why Li Na has achieved a lot
B. To prove failure is the mother of success.
C. To show how excellent Zheng Qinwen is.
D. To compare the difference between Zheng Qinwen and LI Na
27. Which of the following can best describe Zheng Qinwen?
A. Optimistic and generous.
B. Struggling and determined
C. Independent and helpful.
D. Adventurous and realistic.
C
Feeling a bit bored? It could be just what you need to produce your best ideas, excite your creativity or
simply give your brain a rest.
Nowadays, in the age of round-the-clock entertainment, it’s technically trickier to be bored. If the show
you’re watching has lost its spark, you can easily amuse yourself on social media without even leaving the sofa.
But that’s not necessarily a good thing. Feeling disengaged from the task in hand, or a lack of stimulation (刺激),
does have its benefits, according to researchers at the University of Central Lancashire.
Being bored motivates you to search out something less boring to do. For example, if you decide there’s
nothing worth watching on TV, you might choose to switch off and take up a new hobby. This, according to
researchers, can explain why the lockdowns of the past two years saw a surge (激增) in creativity among people
stuck at home from banana-bread-making to picking up a paintbrush for the first time since childhood.
But what about those times when you have no choice but to stick with the boring situation, waiting for a bus,
for instance? The good news is that the boredom you’re feeling now could spark your creativity later, says a 2019
study published in the Academy of Management Discoveries journal. People who’d taken part in a bean-sorting
task later performed better at coming up with creative ideas than another group who’d been given something more
interesting to do first.
Ultimately, don’t take it for granted that there’ll always be something close at hand to entertain us. With
boredom, we will not run the risk of becoming boring ourselves.
28. What does the author imply in paragraph 2?
A. Wondering mind can be healthy.
B. Social media can surely entertain us.
C. Being bored may be something good.
D. Being involved in the task is beneficial.
29. Why was the surge in creativity seen recently?
A. People were stimulated by boredom.
B. People were better equipped at home.
C. People had more hobbies to choose from.
D. People were more concerned about mental being.
30. What is the purpose of the bean-sorting task in the 2019 study?
A. To create a boring situation. B. To reduce people’s boredom.
C. To make a funny performance. D. To show an entertainment at hand.
31. What is the best title of the passage?
A. What is the point of creativity?
B. Are we more easily bored nowadays?
C. How can we deal with daily boredom?
D. Does boredom make us more creative?
D
A “secretive” new species of frog has been discovered on the forest floor in India’s Western Ghat
mountain range. Named the starry dwarf frog after the markings on its dark brown back, it is just 2
centimeters long.
The frog, whose closest relatives are a group of species native to India and Sri Linka, is the only
member of an ancient lineage (血统)dating back to millions of years ago, according to researchers from
India and the US. It is unclear whether the species is descended from African or Asian frogs.
A group of Indian and US researchers first came across the local species hidden in leaf-litter as part of
a wider project to look for new frogs, lizards and snakes in the richly biodiverse region and stored it in a jar
for later study. Genetic testing and a closer look at its shape, colouring and other features has shown that it
doesn’t match any existing species.Kartik Shanker of the Indian Institute of Science, who helped design the
study, says while it is common to find new frogs in India, this one needs to be noticed. “This particular
species not just is a new species, but also belongs to a new genus (属), and that makes it a little more
special,” says Shanker.
The number of known species of frog identified in India has climbed from around 200 to above 400
over the past two decades. While many species new to science are frequently immediately sorted as
endangered, it is too early to say whether the starry dwarf frog is threatened. “They are very secretive,” says
Shanker, adding that the team didn’t know the size of its population. The frog is active at night and lives
near water.
Habitat loss is a serious risk to frogs in tropical forests around the world, alongside threats such as a
deadly fungus(真菌)that has been killing off amphibians(两栖动物)for the past four decades. But the new
species was found in a reserved forest, meaning it will enjoy a degree of protection by Indian government
agencies.
32. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. The species was discovered by tourists.
B. The species was found in a rich region.
C. The species was finally set free.
D. The species was further studied.
