10、in Ghent. It is completely flat, so encouraging for beginners and people aiming for personal bests. There is a rowing lake with a 5 km track. This connects with a nature reserve on an 8 km loop. If that isnt enough, there is another nature reserve, full of birds and canals surrounded by a 10 km loop

11、. I will be running my first marathon in Ghent in March 2022. Anyone?Jennifer Nice, FranceIn Nice Provence, I really enjoyed joining the local joggers running along what is one of the most beautiful streets in the worldthe Promenade des Anglais. You have the fresh salty sea breezes filling your lung

12、s, the sun shining on the waves of the sea, and the beautiful buildings standing along the running route. Feel free to grab some fresh shellfish and a glass of wine on the beach as a reward.Lisa Offa, UKThe Offas Dyke path, which runs from Prestatyn to Chepstow, provides stunning scenery and is just

13、 perfect to focus on the run. The sections of the route I like the most include the slopes（坡地）of Moel Famau and the section from Llangollen to Bodfari, where there is an excellent pub (The Dinorben Arms) to refuel in comfort. Perfect.Richard Protaras, CyprusMy favorite route is in Protaras, Cyprus.

14、There is a path that runs from Fig Tree bay to Polyxenia beach and you have wonderful views of the bays and beaches while running. The amazing clear seas and sandy beaches make it very pleasant. The best time to go is early morning when the sun isnt blazing and the paths arent too busy with holidaym

In a geography textbook.BMy mother at 85 was quick, with good vision and sharp reaction for her age, but one day she knocked into three parked cars on a supermarket parking

17、lot. We never found out exactly how it happened, but the investigators figured Mom hit the accelerator instead of the brake.Mom was lucky, even though she spent two weeks in the hospital. But we unwillingly concluded that it was time to take Moms car keys. Tears ran down her cheeks. I think she neve

18、r felt old until that moment, when I took away the independence provided by the car.In the days that followed, we suggested she take taxis to shop, but she wouldnt do it. “Thats not my style.” Fortunately, she lived in the city and quickly slipped into the habit of taking the bus. She began to enjoy

19、 her new life. But most old people have no convenient public transportation or shops within walking distance.We seemed to have made a right decision. But is tragedy like that a reason to take away the car keys of the elderly? I think not. Age doesnt necessarily prove anything. Slower reactions or no

20、t, senior citizens are much better than teenagers. They usually drive more slowly. They get honked at a lot, but their slower speed reduces the risk of death and destruction. The worst risk-takers on the highway are young men between the ages of 18 to 25, but no one suggests taking away their keys o

21、r raising the driving age to 26.The death rate in the past year for motorists between 16 and 20, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, was more than double that for drivers over 70. The older citizen who tries to avoid danger is likely to take personal responsibility more

22、seriously than a younger person who causes danger through partying and risk.So, let Granny drive for as long as she can. Road age is a lot less dangerous than road rage.24.

25、 International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) added the Chinese paddlefish（白鲟） to its list of extinct species in July, 2022. People will never see a living Chinese paddlefish again as it has been declared extinct. For many people in China, this may have been the first time they heard the na

26、me of the fish that was once a denizen（常客）of the Yangtze River Basin.The fish had lived in the Yangtze River Basin since about 200 million years ago. It was among the worlds biggest freshwater species and could grow up to 7.5 meters in length. The last time the fish was spotted was in 2003 in the up

27、per reaches of the Yangtze River in Yibin, Sichuan Province. It was an injured female sturgeon（鲟鱼）. After local people treated its wounds, it was released into the river.According to the IUCN, the global sturgeon reassessment found that all remaining 26 sturgeon species in the world are now at risk

28、of extinction, up from 85 in 2009. Their decline over the past three generations is steeper than previously thought.“The extinction of the Chinese paddlefish should be a warning for everyone,” said Zhou Fei, Chinas chief program officer at the World Wide Fund for Nature. “It has provided an opportun

29、ity for conservation experts to raise public awareness about the urgency of protecting freshwater species in the Yangtze River Basin and educate the public on the need for more efforts to save other species living in the region from extinction,” he added.To prevent further loss of freshwater species

30、 in China, people must act urgently. There is no time to waste. Also, long-term threats to their life and habitats must be eliminated by taking systematic protection measures. The protection of biodiversity will delay the extinction of some species. Its not something that can be achieved by certain

31、departments. Instead, it requires joint efforts from all sectors of society.28. What did the IUCN announce recently?A. The extinction of the Chinese paddlefish.B. A new list of endangered wildlife in the world.C. A prohibition on overfishing in freshwater lakes.D. The discovery of a rare species in

32、the Yangtze River.29. What is the purpose of paragraph 2?A. To present the diversity of freshwater species.B. To stress the key role of sturgeon in the ecosystem.C. To offer some information about the Chinese paddlefish.D. To show the difficulty of protecting the Chinese paddlefish.30. What can we l

34、erlined word “eliminated” in the last paragraph mean?A. ignored.B. removed.C. estimated.D. preserved.DFollowing the crowd may not always be in a persons best interest. But new research suggests that teens who go along with their friends may end up healthier as adults.Scientists have known that close

35、 friendships do good to health. Thats true for both teens and adults. The finding inspired Joseph Allen, a psychologist at the University of Virginia, and his team to study whether experiences during teen years would influence adult health.So they followed 171 teens, starting when the kids were just

36、 13. They interviewed each one every year for five years, and also spoke to these teens closest friends, who provided additional information about the quality of their friendships. The same 171 people were interviewed again at ages 25, 26 and 27. This time, the questions surveyed each persons overal

37、l health. When the researchers analyzed the data they found a strong connection between a teens behavior and adult health. Teens who had close friends grew up to be the healthier adults. Whether teens held back their feelings or expressed them to a close friends also influenced later health. Those w

38、ho held back were more likely to be sick as adults. The connection held up even after the scientists accounted for other possible influences on health. Weight, family income and drug use were all examined. So were mental health issues, such as anxiety and depression. And in these people, such other

39、factors did not explain adult health as well as teen friendships did.Going along with the crowd may have benefits, says Allen, but there are also drawbacks. Teens who are more independent tend to do better at school and work. And peer pressure may lead to some kids risky behavior, such as smoking, d

40、rinking or using drugs. Dealing with it is an ongoing challenge, Allen acknowledges. “Finding the right balance is the key. Teens shouldnt lose heart for not finding this easy.” And, he adds, “Parents need to be understanding about the pressures teens face.”32. Which column does the passage probably

41、 come from?A. Sports.B. Health.C. Fashion.D. Entertainment.33. Which of the following is the closest to the underlined word “drawbacks”?A. challenges.B. mistakes.C. influences.D. disadvantages.34.

42、ollow the crowdB. teens take up smoking, drinking or using drugs face peer pressureC. despite the challenges in peer pressure, teens should not give upD. parents should understand their teens and stop them going with friends35. What is the main idea of the passage?A. It is not easy to get along with

43、 peers.B. Teen friendships may make healthier adults.C. It is important to deal with teens pressure.D. Adults should pay attention to teens health.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。Why Are Plane Seats Always Blue?Planes are an engineering masterpiece. Since they were

44、invented, they have made the world a better place. Like never before, we can travel to almost every corner of the world within hours. 36 The only time they land is when they need to get passengers on board or go through regular checks. This means the crew doesnt have much time to clean up the plane.

45、 37 Airlines are likely to go with dark blue fabric（布料）its much more of a bother to clear up a red wine spill on white fabric than on blue.Blue is also a color that can make passengers less anxious. If you are an 18-year-old teenager, you are probably not afraid of flying. But the aviation（航空）indust

46、ry isnt that old. 38 In fact, even today in the 21st century, 5% of the worlds population has ever flown on an airplane, which is extremely low. But that also means, most people are afraid of flying. Some statistics show that around 80 percent of people are scared to fly. 39 Compared to other means

47、of transport such as cars, its a much safer option.Anyway, people are afraid of heights. Thats why planes are purposefully designed in such a way to make you feel safe. For example, the color red is associated with objects to remind people of danger or to warn people that they need to stop. Green is

48、 used to make people aware of the presence of an emergency exit. 40 A. The airline business is expensive.B. Unlike cars, planes are made to fly all the time.C. Many airlines redesign or change their seats often.D. Of course, it doesnt make sense to be afraid of boarding a plane.E. As recent as the 2

49、000s, not many people had the opportunity to fly.F. Thats why the seats must be designed in a way to look clean all the time.G. But blue is a calm color associated with the positive qualities of trust and peace.第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选
