Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
At a hotel，surrounded by teammates，he got the email.“Dear Spencer Heslop，” it
read，“you have been invited to participate in the Selection Camp for the US Men’s National
Team for 2022.”
The recent graduate from University of Michigan School of Public Health dreamed of the
opportunity to play for the United States since he was seven years old.After he developed a disease
that often results in damage to the spinal cord(脊髓) and nerves，Heslop’s parents pushed him to
try wheelchair basketball.
By high school，Heslop played wheelchair basketball on a competitive basketball team.The
experience opened his eyes to the world of adaptive sports，which became his favorite.While he
was never the biggest or strongest player，Heslop had a feel for the game and a desire to take it
further.Faced with many challenges，he worked tirelessly to develop chair skills and conditioning
that made him more explosive.
“As I applied to graduate school，I knew I would play wherever I was planning to go，”
Heslop said.“University of Michigan was near the top of my list academically.I also heard that
they were trying to get an adaptive sports program going，and that helped me make my choice.”
University of Michigan Adaptive Sports and Fitness was formed in 2018 to address the inequitable
access to physical activity opportunities ， competitive and recreational ， for students with
disabilities at University of Michigan.
Since Heslop joined the program in 2020，University of Michigan’s wheelchair basketball
team became part of the NWBA’s Division Ⅱ.After leading the team to an 8th-place finish at the
NWBA Nationals in April 2022，Heslop participated in the US Men’s National Team Selection
Camp where he fought against 30 of the nation’s top athletes and made the final twelve-man
roster.This gave the recently graduated young man a better shot at his ultimate goal：playing for
his country in the Paralympic Games.

Several years ago，I was at a pre-season football practice at a high school where I was
working with the team on a concussion(脑震荡) research project.The players were lined up in two
rows facing each other and with little more instruction from the coach than “on the whistle，hit
the man across from you”，great concern rushed through my mind.
Professional sports get the lion’s share of attention，but over three million children and
teenagers in the United States play the same game.This directly places concussions as a significant
public health concern for all.
However，for decades，concussion has been considered a temporary injury with no long-
term consequences.Many athletes will do just about anything to stay on the field and “play
through the pain” as a sign of toughness.In 2005 ， with the release of the brain tissue
pathology(病理学) report of Mike Webster，a retired National Football League player，our
thinking on concussion began to shift.Since then，public attention has focused on this link between
brain injury and blows to the head.As our understanding of concussion progressed to understanding
its significance as an injury，so too did the development of player equipment.
In the early 1900s football was played without helmets(头盔)，but severe injuries，like skull
fractures，led to the occasional use of leather helmets in the 1920s.The first facemask entered the
game in the 1950s.Modern helmets use advanced shell materials，have moveable panels to absorb
forces，and multi-layered padding that responds to different impacts.Companies will continue to
improve helmets as new materials become available，guided by the newest science.
Sports are an important part of a society’s culture and they give millions of children much-
needed exercise.Yet，participation in any sport carries injury risk，and concussion will always be
part of that.As those children become adults and make sport their hobby or even career，ensuring
they play safely at all levels is essential.
5．What made the author feel concerned?
A．The coach’s inexperience.
B．The physical conflicts among the players.
C．Unawareness of the potential injuries.D．Unpredictable outcome of the project.
6．What did athletes use to do when meeting with sports-related concussion?
A．They tended to ignore it.
B．They felt scared about it.
C．They quit playing immediately.
D．They refused medical assistance.
7．What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about concerning the helmet?
A．Its gradual improvement.
B．Its widespread influence.
C．The discovery of its new materials.
D．The difficulty of its mass production.
8．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．Exercise is vital for children.
B．Sports safety can’t be overemphasized.
C．No participation in sports is without injuries.
D．Concussion is the most common injury in sports.

Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout
