• 2．Running is undoubtedly a healthy lifestyle，but it is difficult to stick to it.I still remember one 50-minute run in particular in the spring of 2018.I made a detailed plan at first and immediately began creating a long list of excuses as to why this was simply just not going to work，why I wasn't fit enough and why I would fail.I was afraid that I had no confidence in my plan.Before I even tied my shoes，I'd already convinced myself I couldn't do that.
     How would it go？I had quit the workout mentally before I even started.Who knows how many times I stopped and restarted my watch？I spent an awfully long afternoon sitting by the road feeling sorry for myself.One bad workout would even upset me for days.I questioned my fitness gradually and cut more workouts short.And pretty soon，my fitness gradually came to a steady level or moved backward.
     The problem I gradually realized was that I treated my entire training plan like a tempo run-hard，fast，strict.In a tempo run，if you don't hit your pace early，it's nearly impossible to catch up.Therefore，I realized I needed to treat my training like my favorite workout：the long run，I love ignoring my watch，settling into a relaxing pace，enjoying the route and focusing on only one goal—finishing.I love that I can have a bad mile in the middle and still end up strong.
     Now，when I set a new goal and write a new training plan，I have what I call "the long-run mindset".I find success and value in my training because I'm not eager for immediate results as before.Yes，there is still an important place for hard fast tempo runs，but I have shifted my attitude to thinking bigger than short-term outcomes and work towards lifelong success.
  
  （1）How did the author first feel about his running plan？

  
  A．Positive.
  B．Convinced.
  C．Unsure.
  D．Unafraid.
  （2）What can we infer about the author from paragraph 2？

  
  A．He had a poor-quality watch.
  B．He had a loser's mental state.
  C．His health was improving rapidly.
  D．His training plan was easy to follow.
  （3）How did the author manage to solve his problem？

  
  A．By ignoring the finishing line.
  B．By finding a tense workout pace.
  C．By forgetting his previous achievements.
  D．By treating the training in a different way.
  （4）What message does the author try to tell us？

  
  A．Doing is better than saying.
  B．Think twice before you leap.
  C．A good plan makes a good ending.
  D．It's an attitude of mind that counts.

• 3．Mark Twain （1835-1910）-we've all heard the name，but what makes him "the father of American literature" as classic US author William Faulkner once called him？
     Mark Twain is someone Americans are taught to love.Older relatives，English teachers and the media always praise him.But when you actually take the time to read The Adventures of Tom Sawyer，you find that his work is more wonderful than you could have ever imagined.
     The novel describes a young boy named Tom Sawyer growing up in a small town along the Mississippi River.He explores the countryside on a riverboat with his friends，falls in love with girls，starts secret clubs and searches for treasure.Twain's idea of childhood is magical-a time of imagination，wonder and，of course，adventure.
     More importantly，through the eyes of Tom Sawyer，Twain cleverly makes fun of US culture.For example，Tom hates going to church，and Twain uses scenes of Tom there to mock religion and its old traditions. "Often，the less there is to justify a traditional custom，the harder it is to get rid of it，" he writes in one chapter.
     Twain's writing is full of these kinds of critical（批判的） points about culture and politics.That's why he is so loved in the US-he wasn't afraid to state his opinions，and he did so clearly.For instance，Twain didn't like US wars abroad.In 1900，after the US invaded（入侵） the Philippines，Twain wrote in a newspaper article： "We do not intend to free，but to subjugate（征服） the people of the Philippines…We have gone there to conquer." He also believed strongly in women's right to vote in elections and gave a famous speech on the subject，called "Votes for Women"，in 1901."Tom was a glittering hero once more-the pet of the old，the envy of the young，" Twain writes in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.But he could just as well be describing himself.
  
  （1）After reading The Adventures of Tom Sawyer，you are likely to think

  according to the author.
  A．it's not worth all the praise
  B．it's even better than you expected
  C．it's as wonderful as you expected
  D．it's better to read it with teachers
  （2）In the third paragraph，the author mainly

  .
  A．indicates what makes Tom Sawyer's adventures so wonderful
  B．explains where Twain's idea of childhood comes from
  C．shows how naughty and adventurous Tom Sawyer is
  D．gives a brief description of the novel
  （3）What does the underlined word "mock" in the fourth paragraph mean？

  
  A．Make fun of.
  B．Show respect for.
  C．Give examples of.
  D．Give reasons for.
  （4）Twain is so loved in the US because

  .
  A．he showed readers a magical childhood that everyone would love
  B．he criticized American culture and society clearly and cleverly
  C．he wrote bad things about US wars abroad
  D．he supported women's right to vote
