Glenn Cunningham，“the Kansas Ironman”，was an American middle-distance runner，
and was considered the greatest American miler of all time.
Glenn was born in Kansas on August 4,1909.At 7，Glenn was badly burned in an accidental
fire in their schoolhouse.The little boy did survive after a long battle，though doctors told his
mother that he was sure to die.Unfortunately from his waist down，he had no motor ability.But
with his iron persistence and determination，he did develop the ability to stand up，then to walk
and then to run.
By the time he was 12，he had beaten all the local high school runners.His legs remained
deeply scarred，however.Throughout his life，he would have to spend time doing long warm-up
exercises in order to maintain circulation.In addition，his injuries meant that he could never run
smoothly or efficiently.
When in university，he ran for the university track team and won his first big race，the 1932
NCAA 1,500 meters.That summer，he was selected for the U．S.Olympic track team and came in
fourth in the 1,500-meter race in the Olympic Games.In 1933，he won the AAU 800 meters with a
time of 1∶51.8.Overall，he ran 20 races during that summer.That year，the first year he was
called “Ironman”．
Although Glenn might have used his name as a star athlete to make a great deal of money，he
was more interested in helping others.He and his wife opened the Glenn Cunningham Youth Ranch
and raised over 10,000 foster children over three decades.
Throughout his life，Glenn won many awards including the Sullivan Memorial Trophy.He
was also elected to the National Track and Field Hall of Fame.As an example of the power of

(2022·河北邢台联考)
Ladies，if you find yourselves wandering an unknown city with a man who is questioning
your directional abilities，don’t doubt yourselves.
A recent small study published in the journal Psychological Science found that the
long-standing theory that women have a more difficult time reading maps wasn’t true.
Historically，men have performed better than women in studies that tested their spatial(空间
的) ability. But the leading study author Margaret Tarampi and a researcher from theUniversity of California，Santa Barbara theorized that social influences had an effect on this
outcome ： The cultural belief that women are worse at reading maps could be seen as a
stereotype(固有模式) threat，meaning women believe they’re bad at something，so they
perform poorly as a result.The researchers also theorized that women performed better at skills that
involve a social element.In other words，if reading a map means helping someone else，they
might perform better.
Tarampi and her team tested both theories on undergraduate students at UCSB across three
separate experiments.And，indeed，the results showed that men scored better than women only
when they were mentioned the stereotype of male superiority before the test.
When the researchers did not mention it and gave a social context for reading the map，
women’s scores improved across the board.Women also performed better when the test maps
simply included human figures，rather than just random objects and landmarks.
So ladies，next time you struggle to figure out whether you should make a left or right at the
Louvre，take out your tourist map with a healthy dose of confidence.
5．What is the purpose of the first paragraph?

The cultural belief that women are worse at reading maps could be seen as a stereotype(固有模
式)”可知，由于社会刻板印象，人们认为女性阅读地图的能力很差。故选C。
7．Men performed better than women in the study when .
A．they were asked to help someone else by reading a map
B．they were informed of the stereotype before the test
C．the test maps simply included human figuresD．there were social elements in the map
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据第四段末句可知，在测试之前，当他们被告知关于男性优越感的刻
板印象时，男性在研究中表现优于女性。故选B。
8．What can be concluded from the passage?
A．Women can read maps as well as men.
B．Women are better drivers than men.
C．Women always have difficulty reading maps.
D．Women are better at spatial ability.

一样好。故选A。

Ⅲ.语法填空
Chinese Herbal(草本的) Medicine
Genuine Chinese people have found thousands of plants and herbs associated with the
1. (treat) of diseases，so herbal medicine is really 2. large system.Doctors
would analyze their nature or property such as “cold and hot” or “yin and yang”，use all
sorts of raw 3. (material)，and mix them to cure disease.Thus it is also different from the
western medicine.
About the classification，in the Compendium(纲) of Materia Medica by Li Shizhen in the
Ming Dynasty，there are 1892 types 4. (record)．Today we can 5. (brief) divide
them into roots，rhizome(根茎)，leaf，flower，seeds，grass，vines(藤蔓)，and so on.
Of course these raw(生的) herbs cannot be eaten when put before you；they need your own
hands to prepare.6. patients take is decoction(煎汁) of the herbs.
The quality is concerned 7. the decocting jar，quantity of water，and the
frequency of decoction.Doctors suggest that water amount 8. (control) according to the
nature of absorbing.Because the herbs bought from the chemist’s are usually dry，most of 9.
need to be immersed into the water for 1-3 hours before decocting.The effect after 2 or 3 times’
decoction is 10. (good) than once.The amount patients will take is about 200-300 ml for
children and 400-600 ml for adults.
1．答案 treatment
解析 考查词性转换。作(be) associated with的宾语用名词，表示抽象意义的“治疗”，为
不可数名词，故填treatment。
2．答案 a
解析 考查冠词。system是可数名词，此处泛指“一个庞大的系统”，需要用不定冠词修饰，
large的发音以辅音音素开头，故填a。
3．答案 materials
解析 考查名词单复数。表示“具体的材料”时，material是可数名词，此处表示不止一种
材料，所以用复数形式，故填materials。
4．答案 recorded
解析 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，此处使用非谓语动词，1892 types与record之
间是逻辑上的动宾关系，表示被动，用过去分词作后置定语，故填recorded。
5．答案 briefly
解析 考查词性转换。修饰谓语divide用副词，故填briefly。6．答案 What
解析 考查主语从句。此处为主语从句，从句中的take缺少宾语，what引导主语从句，并
在从句中作宾语，故填What。
7．答案 with
解析 考查介词。be concerned with为固定短语，意为“与……有关”，故填with。
8．答案 (should) be controlled
解析 考查虚拟语气和被动语态。表示“建议”时，suggest后的宾语从句用(should＋)do的
虚拟语气，其中should可省略，又因water amount与control之间是被动关系，所以用被动
语态，故填(should) be controlled。
9．答案 them
解析 考查代词。前一分句中已经有了连词Because，因此此处不是非限制性定语从句，此
处指代前面的复数名词herbs并作介词of的宾语，故填them。
10．答案 better
解析 考查形容词比较级。空后的than表明此处用形容词比较级形式，故填better。
