They talked in English,but also in Pashto, Arabic and other languages.What made them different is that all of the kids are refugees(难民). They were playing as part of a camp that gives them a chance to develop their soccer skills and to meet other kids who had to start their lives over in the United States. The camp is run by an organization called LACES, which stands for Life and Change Experienced through Sports. The group uses soccer to help bring together communities that have experienced hardships.SerenFryatt, 38, got the idea for LACES while playing on a womens soccer team in Liberia,an African country that had been at war with itself for 14 years. Fryatt, whos from Muncie, Indiana,saw that soccer brought joy to the Liberian women on her team,even though their lives off the field were very difficult. After starting a soccer program for kids in Liberia,she decided to start a similar camp in Maryland,where she moved in 2015. Coaches volunteer their time, and the costs are paid mostly by donations(捐赠). This year, 95 kids signed up. The camp, for ages 9 to 14, is split(分组) between training that helps kids develop skills, such as passing and ball control, and meeting where they discuss life skills. One of the coaches, Louisa Pitney, said she likes seeing how the kids grow just from being together.At the end of the camps last day, all the kids gathered in the middle of the field. Fryatt asked them to raise their hands and say what they had learned that week. Some kids talked about soccer skills-one girl said shed learned not to use her hands; a boy said hed learned how to score a goal.When a coach called on one shy girl, she smiled before answering in a soft voice.“Celebrate each other, she said.25.

When she was just eight years old, Jacqueline started working in a cotton mill(纱厂). As she worked on the weaving(编织)machines, making cloth, she dreamed about becoming an aviator. She wanted to fly one of the airplanes that had been recently invented.Jacqueline got her wish in the 1930s, she became a pilot at a time when airplanes were being avoided by most people.Only a handful of brave young men flew these new planes, and there were very few women aviators. However, that did not stop Jacqueline. She took flying lessons and began to enter famous races. In 1938,she won first prize in a competition to fly across the United States.At the beginning of World War II, Jacqueline trained women in England as pilots. She later came back to the United States and trained American women, too. In 1945, .she received the Distinguished Service Medal, one of Americas highest honors(荣誉).When jet planes were invented, Jacqueline learned to fly them, too. Soon, she was the first woman to fly faster than the speed of sound. Jacqueline also set many other records in the field of aviation, including flying higher than anyone had before her.In many ways, Jacqueline Cochran is forgotten today.

The forgotten flyerDIt is not unusual to stare at a long restaurant menu and not be able to decide what one wants to eat. At other times it is difficult to pick an item of clothing in a shop with plenty of items from which to choose. According to a new study published in Nature Human Behavior in October, this is the phenomenon of “choice overload (选择超荷)”. Its the result of a struggle (挣扎) in our brain, Science Daily reported. In the study, volunteers were given varying sets of six, 12, or 24 landscape pictures. They were asked to choose one to be printed on a coffee mug. While they chose, a machine recorded their brain activities. According to the research, two parts of the brain the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) (前扣带皮层) and the striatum (纹状体) were highly active in the process. The ACC is responsible for the potential costs of decisions while the striatum is to determine (决定) value, Neuroscience journal noted. The study suggests that our brain needs to weigh both reward and workload to make a proper decision. After further study, the researchers reported that these two parts are likely to be more active for the 12-item set than the other two sets. Thats because 12 is a good number, not “too small” or “too large” in the choice pool. “As the number of options increases, the potential reward increases, but then begins to level off due to increasing amount of workload,” Colin Camerer, a professor of California Institute of Technology, US, told Science Daily. But that doesnt mean 12 is the magic number for decision making. According to Neuroscience journal, the proper number of options for a person is probably “somewhere between 8 and 15”. Still, many people prefer to have a large number of options to choose from even if the experience can be distressing, researchers reported.According to the UK journal Medical News Today, its partly because people tend to feel freer and more able to control their lives when there are more options. “Essentially, our eyes are bigger than our stomachs,” Camerer told Sci-news. “When we think about how many choices we want, we may not be mentally representing the frustrations of making the decision.”33. What did the study published in Nature Human Behavior aim to find? A. How to make wise decisions quickly. B. How people feel after making choices. C. How the number of choices influences ones decision. D. How the brain makes choices.34. Why did the participants prefer the 12-item set in the study? A. It made their brains work in the most active way possible. B. It took the least effort for the ACC and striatum. C. It was a balance between effort and reward. D. It included many options.35. Why do people like to have lots of choices, according to the article? A. They feel like they have more freedom in life. B. They feel they can have better control of other peoples lives. C. They dont feel tired after making a choice. D. They dont know what they really want.第二节 (共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为 多余选项。How to keepyourself safe from new virus?After a new-type coronavirus was detected in viralpneumonia cases in Central Chinas Wuhan city a month ago, more cases have beenreported in recent days. 36 :1.
