The 61-year-old potato farmer Cliff Young won the 1983 Westfield Sydney-Melbourne
Ultramarathon, which took runners days to finish, in Australia.
When Cliff showed up in the race, he stuck out like a sore thumb in his everyday clothes different
from the other professional runners’, quickly attracting the attention of reporters present.
“I grew up on a farm where we couldn’t afford horses. Whenever the storms would roll in, I’d have
to go out and round up the sheep,” Cliff told reporters. “Sometimes I’d have to run those sheep for two or
three days, but I’d always catch them. I believe I can run this race.” No one actually believed him. Most
competitors were in their 20s and early 30s, with years of training and marathon experience.
On the first day of the race, Cliff was left far behind. But he had one advantage that no one had
expected. He didn’t plan on stopping until he reached the finish line while all the others had been training
to run for 18 hours a day and then stop and sleep for the other six.
When dawn broke, the other runners were shocked to learn that the old farmer was in the lead and
that they would have to catch up with him. Although running slowly, he was the first to cross the finish
line and received $10,000 as a prize. But he kept none of the prize and donated it to the homeless.
Cliff continued to run. In 1997, he set out to raise funds for homeless kids by running all 16, 000
kilometers of the Australian coastline. In 2000, Cliff achieved a world age record in a six-day race in
Victoria. Cliff Young died at 81, but his legend lives on.
24.What does the underlined part in paragraph 2 mean?
A.He was very noticeable. B.He suffered a hand injury.
C.He seemed nervous. D.He had a special thumb.
25.What was people’s attitude toward Cliff’s confidence?
A.Disappointed. B.Respectful. C.Doubtful. D.Curious.
26.What did Cliff Young do with the race?
A.He saved his energy at first. B.He received good training.
C.He sped up in the last two days. D.He continuously ran without sleep.
27.What keeps Cliff Young’s legend on?
A.Imagination and generosity. B.Dream and devotion.
C.Determination and kindness. D.Willingness and wisdom.

Meat, milk, cheese — just some of the things provided by goats. But now we can also add fire
safety to this list. As wildfires damage increasingly large areas of the planet each year, goatherds ( 牧羊
人) may offer a way of reducing the risk.
Wildfires are made possible by hot, dry weather conditions as well as a supply of dead plants that
serve as fuel. We may have limited control over the former factor, but we can control the latter. Reducing
the fuel load lowers the possibility of wildfires occurring, as well as the amount of damage caused. This
is where we can turn to goats to search for a solution, which are being used for landscape management in
a number of places around the world, including Greece, Spain, Portugal, Chile and a number of parts of
the United States.
Goats have an extremely powerful digestive ( 消 化 的 ) system. Many kinds of plants that are
dangerous to other animals can be easily eaten by goats. It’s not just fully-grown plants that goats are
able to deal with: any seeds that pass through a goat can’t survive and will not grow. Human clearance
teams have to worry about getting to the hard-to-reach places where plants grow but goats don’t. They
are skilled mountain climbers and when standing on their hind legs, they can reach up to two metres to
the plants that humans would struggle to reach. Because of this, using goats can reduce both the
possibility of workplace accidents and the amount of money spent on fire protection measures.
Goatherds have been found to clear some parts of land for a third of the price of human control teams.
Cost and safety aren’t the only benefits. Goats are quieter than grass-cutting machines and people
usually prefer to see goats eating grass rather than litres of herbicide ( 除 草 剂 ). Children are often
attracted to see the goats at work and this provides an opportunity to educate people about preventing
wildfires.
28.Why can goats help to prevent wildfires?
A.They are not afraid of bad weather. B.They are easily controlled by goatherds.
C.They have the strongest digestive system. D.They can remove dead plants causing fire.
29.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.The fire protection measures that people often take.
B.The reasons why goats are used to prevent wildfires.
C.The difficulty human clearance teams have preventing fire.
D.The effects goats have on the natural balance of mountains.
30.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Herbicide will not be used to remove grass soon.
B.Children like goats because of their quiet character.
C.It’s a green way to prevent wildfires by using goats.
D.Herbicide works better than grass-cutting machines.
31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Firefighting Goats. B.Clever Goatherds.
C.Damage Caused by Wildfires. D.Ways to Prevent Disasters.
D
Parkinson’s is a progressive brain disease which leads to shaky hands and slow movement, and there
is no cure. Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese martial art that combines ( 结合) slow, gentle movements with
deep breathing and relaxation, may be an effective means of reducing the suffering. Recently, the
researchers say that those who practised the martial art twice a week had fewer complications ( 并发症)
and better quality of life than those who didn’t. Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the
benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson’s.
The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of
hundreds of Parkinson’s patients for up to five years. One group of 147 people practised regular Tai Chi
while another group of 187 did not. The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the
Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance. This group also saw fewer
falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other
group. At the same time, sleep and quality of life continuously improved.
Prof. Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology at Queen Mary University of
London, called it “an important study”—the positive effects on aspects of motor (运动的) and non-motor
functions are impressive — but said there were limitations in its design, and more tests were needed.
“We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms
of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients,”
he said.
32.Why was the study conducted?
A.To find a cure for Parkinson’s disease.
B.To improve the sleep quality of Parkinson’s patients.
C.To remove the misunderstanding of the previous studies.
D.To research the benefits of Tai Chi for those with Parkinson’s.
33.Which of the following is not the researchers’ finding?
A.Concentration problem was lower in the Tai Chi group.
B.The disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group.
C.Patients in the non-Tai Chi group continuously fell down.
D.Back pain and dizziness were relieved in the Tai Chi group.
34.What can we learn from Prof. Alastair Noyce’s words?
A.Tai Chi should be given more preference.
B.Finding the most beneficial exercise is of importance.
C.It is unnecessary to do more related studies.
D.Improve the long-term management of patients is impossible.
35.What is Prof. Alastair Noyce’s attitude towards the study?
A.Confused. B.Doubtful. C.Positive. D.Worried.
