At the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, Halfway in the women’s slalom(

障碍滑

雪

)race, 18-year-old Mikaela Shiffrin took a commanding lead over the greatest women’s slalom

skiers in the world. On her final run, she burst from the start house at a breakneck speed, snaking

around the poles in crazy rhythm.

Skiing has always been a significant part of Mikaela’s life. Her mom raced and coached skiing

and her dad ski raced all through college. The Shiffrins taught Mikaela and her brother, Taylor, to

ski at a very young age. At the age of two and a half, Mikaela made her first ski run on plastic

skis. From ages 8 to 11, she worked hard, practicing hundreds of training runs on small hills

repeatedly to develop the correct techniques of slalom skiing.

When Mikaela was 11, she attended the Burke Mountain Academy, a Vermont boarding school

for skiers. She took classes, studied, and practiced her skiing crazily. According to Kirk Dwyer,

Burke Mountain Academy headmaster, “It was the degree of Mikaela’s effort to be the best that

distinguished her from others. Her commitment to conditioning, having proper sleep, eating

correctly, doing the drills, and watching video was unusual for an 11 to 13-year-old. Mikaela

practiced more than anyone and believed in herself then and now.”

By the time she was 17, she had already won her first World Cup race.

Working hard is a full-time job for Mikaela. Even her off-season is work time. In the summer,

when Mikaela is off the ski slopes and in the gym, her daily training consists of six to seven

hours of weight lifting, swimming, and biking to improve her core strength and flexibility. She

does all of this so that she can dash down slopes at speeds topping 50 miles per hour while

cutting back and forth around gates with astonishing precision.

“If you have passion for your targets, whatever they are,” she says, “the sky is the limit. Give it

your all!”

24. What can we learn from paragraph 2?

A. Mikaela came from a skiing family.

B. Mikaela’s mother taught her to ski first.

C. Mikaela trained harder than her brother.

D. Mikaela’s father coached skiing in colleges.

25. Why were headmaster Kirk Dwyer’s words cited?

A. To stress Mikaela was a crazy teen.

B. To show Mikaela’s distinct personality.

C. To praise the good students in his school.

D. To highlight Mikaela’s great devotion to training.

26. Which of the following words can best describe Mikaela?

A. Competent and wise.

B. Creative and determined.

C. Aggressive and brave. D. Committed and self-disciplined.

27. What does Mikaela Shiffrin’s story convey?

A. Practice makes perfect.

B. Not to advance is to go back.

C. He who laughs last laughs best.

D. Actions speak louder than words.

C

Instead of throwing the pits(核) or nuts after eating fruits like many people, inheritors of nut

carving will collect them and turn them into artworks.

“One nut, ranging from 0.8 to 6 centimeters, can be shaped into delicate earrings, buttons,

seals(印章), etc,” said Tan Wanhai, an inheritor of Weifang nut carving.

Weifang nut carving can be traced back to the Qing Dynasty, during which a retired royal

craftsman Wang Dayan spread the skill to the locals in Shandong. Craftsmen back then often

used peach pits to display their artistic skills. Due to the demanding carving skills and its rich

artistic content including many different elements, Weifang nut carving was listed as a national

intangible cultural heritage as early as 2008.

Tan has studied the nut carving over 25 years and has created many nut carvings along the

way. Yet, the 48-year-old craftsman also admitted that the journey of bringing this kind of

masterpiece to life is not all smooth sailing. “Unlike some pits like olive pits whose surfaces

are flat, each peach pit has a unique texture like fingerprints,” Tan said, adding that craftsmen

should have the capability to trace each peach pit carefully to plan their artwork besides the

carving technique itself.

Also, craftsmen need to have a wide foundation of knowledge when it comes to carving nuts.

According to Tan, they have to master skills in painting, seal carving and calligraphy from

many traditional cultures. Sometimes, to depict classic folktales or legends in their artworks

better, they need to read many books to prepare themselves.

It is this kind of dedication that Tan and others possess that allows Weifang nut carving to

thrive(繁荣) when many traditional skills are gradually disappearing. “In recent years, Weifang

nut carving artworks have been increasingly welcomed by people in China for their inventive

layout and novel ideas,” Tan said. This popularity, in turn, has also attracted many people to

learn the skill of nut carving and even become inheritors to pass it down.

28. What can we know about Weifang nut carving?

A. It dates back to the Ming Dynasty.

B. It can transform a nut into different designs.

C. It was invented by a retired royal craftsman.

D. It was first nationally recognized 25 years ago.

29. Which of the following words can replace the underlined word “depict”

in paragraph 5?

A. Tell. B. Understand. C. Review. D. Create.

30. What are paragraph 4 and paragraph 5 mainly about?

A. The cultural significance of nut carving.

B. The reasons why nut carvings are valuable.

C. The skills required for nut carving craftsmen.

D. The difficulties craftsmen have when creating nut carvings.

31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. Seeds of Art and Beauty

B. Art Originating from Life

C. History of Nut Carving

D. Devoted Contemporary Inheritors

Detecting drugs used to be a specific job for dogs, but now a drug detection team is

welcoming some new colleagues – squirrels. Six Eurasian red squirrels were trained and

approved for work responsibilities by police in Chongqing in February.

Squirrels have an acute sense of smell as they can smell food under a foot of snow. Small and

swift, the “newcomers” are able to search for drugs in places which may be unapproachable for

dogs, such as narrow spaces or tops of packages stacked high in warehouses. The squirrels

have been trained to use their claws to scratch at boxes to draw their handlers’ attention if they

detect drugs, according to local Chongqing police authorities.

“Our self-developed training system can be applied to the training of various animals,” Yin

Jin, a police dog handler in Chongqing, told Global Times, adding that the training has really

impressive results as the squirrels can quickly identify drugs. Although the system is intended

for dogs, it can show some evidence on how squirrels are trained as well.

According to a research essay published in the journal China Working Dog which details the

program, conditioning the animals’ reflexes(反射) is the key factor. First, the animals are

familiarized with the targets’ smell and do special gestures when they smell their targets. For

example, for explosive detection dogs, the handlers place pieces of cloth with the smell of the

explosives next to the dogs’ food.

Next, the animals learn to search for the targets under various conditions. From a large

number of luggage bags to people walking in crowds, the handlers create different scenarios(情

景) to test the animals. If the animals successfully identify the location of the targets, they are

then rewarded with snacks or other treats. The animals are soon able to search for targets

naturally and actively, showing that the conditioned reflex has been built internally. Their

training ends with practice sessions in real-life scenarios.

32. What advantage do squirrels have over dogs in drug detection?

A. Squirrels are much easier to train.

B. Squirrels are smarter and quicker.

C. Squirrels have a sharper sense of smell.

D. Squirrels can better fit into small spaces.

33. How do the squirrels remind their handlers after finding boxes

containing drugs?

A. By forcefully shaking their tails.

B. By sitting on the boxes and barking.

C. By jumping up and down on the boxes.

D. By scratching at the boxes with their claws.

34. What does Yin think of their self-developed training system?

A. It still needs to be improved.

B. It will be introduced abroad.

C. It is effective in training squirrels.

D. It can be used to train all kinds of animals.

35. When does a handler know his detecting animals have developed

conditioned reflexes?

A. When his dogs can smell targets carefully.

B. When his mice can search for targets voluntarily.

C. When his squirrels can do different gestures flexibly.

D. When his bees can detect targets in different scenarios.
