On February 13， 2023， Wu Yibing made history， beating John Isner in a thrilling three⁃ set final at the Dallas Open to become the first man from China to win an ATP title.

Brought to a tennis court for the first time at just four， initially encouraged by his pa? rents as an exercise to lose weight， Wu soon had his talent discovered by his provincial ju⁃ nior team， kicking off a journey that would change the face of men ？？s tennis in China. In 2017， Wu Yibing shot to prominence after winning the US Open boys？？ tournament at 18 to become the first Chinese to win a major junior title， raising high hopes for the“Wonder Boy”to change the fortune of Chinese men in a sport long dominated by women？？s success on the pro stage.

In 2018， Wu won his first ATP Challenger title in Shanghai. However， the cruelly competitive nature of men？？s pro tennis hit the rising Wu with a tough reminder after mul⁃ tiple injuries—to his elbow， lower back， shoulder and wrist—forced him to be away from the ATP Tour for close to three years.

He made his return last year and won three ATP Challenger titles before qualifying for the US Open.“Looking back， I feel like I wouldn？？t have been here if not for the ups and downs over the past few years. I take all the setbacks and struggles as a treasure that helps me mature mentally now，”said Wu.“Of course， there were a lot of doubts because I had surgery and the recovery wasn？？t going well. The championship today was a payoff for all the hard work and everyone who？？s supported me along the way.”

6. What can we learn from Wu Yibings statement？

A. No cross， no crown.

B. Well begun is half done.

C. More haste， less speed.

Making day⁃to⁃day activities more intense for a few minutes—such as briefly stepping up the pace of a walk—could offer people who don？？t exercise some of the health benefits that exercisers enjoy， according to a new study of roughly 25，000 adults who reported no ex⁃ercise in their free time.

Those who include three one ⁃to two ⁃minute bursts of intense activity per day saw a nearly 40 percent drop in the risk of death from any cause compared with those without such activity. The risk of death from cancer also fell by nearly 40 percent， and the risk of death from cardiovascular （心血管的） disease dropped almost 50 percent， researchers re⁃ port online in Nature Medicine.

“This study adds to other literature showing that even short amounts of activity are beneficial，”says Lisa Cadmus⁃Bertram， a physical activity epidemiologist （流行病学家） at the University of Wisconsin⁃Madison.“So many people are daunted by feeling that they don？？t have the time， money， motivation， transportation， etc. to go to a gym regularly or work out for long periods of time，”she says.“The message we can take is that it is absolutely worth doing what you can.”

The researchers were looking for bursts of intense activity that met a definition deter? mined in a laboratory study， like reaching at least 77 percent of maximum heart rate and at least 64 percent of maximum oxygen consumption.“In real life， the signs that someone has reached the needed intensity level are an increase in heart rate and feeling out of breath in the first 15 to 30 seconds of an activity，”Stamatakis says.

“Regular daily activities offer several opportunities for these bursts. The simplest one is maximizing walking pace for a minute or two during any regular walk. Other options in⁃ clude carrying grocery bags to the car or taking the stairs. The largest population health gains will be realized by finding ways to get the least physically active people to move a little more，”he says.

8. What was found about intense activity in the new study？

A. It helped to lower the risk of death.

B. It was more beneficial to exercisers.

C. It relieved the pain of cancer patients.

D. It cured people of cardiovascular disease.

9. What does the underlined word“daunted”in paragraph 3 probably mean？

A. Inspired.

B. Surprised.

C. Discouraged.

D. Confused.

10. Which activity might be suggested by Stamatakis？

A. Working out every day.

B. Taking stairs at an even pace.

C. Keeping running at a high speed.

D. Adding short bursts to a regular walk.

11. What might be a suitable title for the text？

A. The simplest daily exercise activities

B. Brief intense activities can be helpful

C. The guidance on brief intense activities

D. Regular exercise is necessary for everyone

I was not a runner years ago. The longest I had ever run was 5 km. What？？s more， I didn？？t like running. No matter how hard I tried， every so often I would fasten my old shoes， walk out of the house with heavy steps， get less than a mile in and wonder why I was bother⁃ ing， especially when there are many more satisfying ways of exercising.

Before last summer， I had never taken part in any kind of race at all. But at the end of July， I completed a triathlon （三项全能运动） after two weeks？？ training. At the end of it came the run—which ended up more like a walk. Then I realized something about it at⁃ tracted me. The extremely painful fun of doing something I hated and was unprepared for turned out to be an excitement. The difficulty felt like something to test my abilities.

When an invitation of the Berlin Marathon dropped onto my desk a few weeks after the triathlon， it felt like a change of fate. After the triathlon， I didn？？t say I should start run⁃ ning at once. Was it because I hate running？ In fact， in course of running， I enjoyed the joy of exceeding my limits. I felt necessary to find out again where those limits might lie. So I said yes.

Training for a marathon often takes at least 20 weeks or more. The training plan be⁃ comes something to stop me worrying when the race seems too frightening. This worry feels impossible to avoid， but there is something equally sure about the training plan： if I followit， then I have done everything I can; if I do everything I can， then I won ？？ t regret what comes at the end.

12. What aspect of the triathlon drew the author？

A. The special feeling of facing a challenge.

B. The fun of walking to the finish line.

C. The excitement of winning a race.

D. The two?week painful training.

13. Why did the author accept the invitation of the Berlin Marathon？

A. He was eager to change his destiny.

B. He wasnt supposed to stop running.

C. He wanted to realize his full potential.

D. He was keen on taking part in another triathlon.

14. Which of the following words can best describe the author？

A. Patient and pessimistic.

B. Courageous and determined.

C. Helpful and persistent.

D. Energetic and changeable.

15. What can be learned from the text？

A. A bad beginning makes a bad ending.

B. Challenge ourselves to live without regrets.

C. Life is full of challenges that cant be avoided.

D. Exercise is to the body while reading is to the mind.

It is reported that 6 percent of the early deaths are caused by lack of physical activity， making it the fourth largest risk for death in the world after high blood pressure， smoking and high blood sugar. So exercise is necessary in everyday life. 16 The general answer is that running is one of the easiest forms of exercise. Science shows it doesn？？t just keep you healthy. It can also actually help you live longer.

17 It turns out that running on a regular basis leads to extra life. Compared with non⁃runners who do different forms of physical activity and completely inactive adults， run⁃ ners even have a 30 percent lower risk of all⁃cause deaths.

The various benefits of running on the body can make life longer. 18 A new study found that groups of runners compared to inactive groups did produce improvements in heart fitness. It could also reduce the deaths related to heart disease.

Now， good news is that there are about 17 million road runners in the US， and the roads are lined with people running slowly or fast. 20 Then you will enjoy the same joy of exercise as they do and become more athletic and healthier.

第二节（满分25分）

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Saturday afternoon came as usual， so did my football class. It couldn？？t be more discouraging.

I didn？？t like Saturdays！ Even though it was a holiday for most children， it was not for me because I needed to go to the football club. Many kids loved sports， but I was not one of them. I would rather stay at home and read.

I didn？？t like running at all， so I was a bad player in the team. The coach was fed up with me and my teammates sometimes laughed at me. I had no idea how to play football. Usually， after practice my teammates would ask me to stay out of the game and I would just nod.

Last Thursday， the coach told us that we would be competing with another team in a month and many people would come to watch the game. That team was the last winner and I froze at the thought of the embarrassment I would face if the team lost because of me. So I decided to practice hard for the match and I went to practice every single day in case I had to play.

A month later， when the game day came， my teammates were reluctant （不愿意的） to take me in the team， and I also wished to stay away from the ground. But as luck would have it， they were short of one player and had no choice but to take me in the team.

Our team was named the Big Blues. There was a great cheer on our arrival in the field. I got very nervous. The game started and within two minutes， I got a blue card. By the time I was allowed back， the score was two goals for each team and the next goal would decide the winning team.

注意：续写词数应为150左右。

Paragraph 1：

Seeing the ball shooting towards me like a bullet， I froze in wild shock

Paragraph 2：

All my teammates ran towards me to lift me in the air.
