On the Twentieth Century.BAt 39 weeks pregnant most women would only be thinking of racing to hospital. But not Amber Miller, who set off to run the Chicago Marathon while expecting her second child any day.As she neared the final stage of the race, she began to feel pain in the stomach. But the determined athlete managed to cross the finish line in 6 hours and 25 minutes.Unbelievably the Chicago race was not even baby Junes first marathon-Miller ran the Wisconsin Marathon earlier this year, four months pregnant. She also ran another marathon when she was about four months pregnant with her son, Caleb. Although there was extra weight, the seasoned runners time was just 3 hours off her personal best.Miller began to feel pain near the end of the race, but she was not sure if it was labor (分娩), because she typically feels some pain when she runs while pregnant. After her race her husband drove her to Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield where she gave birth to the healthy 7 pounds, 13 ounce baby.Miller decided to run because she and her husband had already signed up for the race. The athletic mother said she experienced an enthusiastic welcome from crowds as she ran along. But the devoted runner, who had completed eight marathons, admitted that she did get a few strange looks along the course.“I know what I can handle. This is something Ive been doing for a long time,” the experienced marathon runner said.June was born at 10:29 p.m. on Sunday night after seven hours labor. “Shes absolutely perfect,” Miller said. “We are extremely happy, but very tired.”After her surprising double achievement, Miller says she is planning to take some time off to concentrate on being a full-time mom.24. What can we learn from the passage?A. Miller failed to finish the race due to her labor.B. Millers husband was against her running the race.C. Miller knew she was going to give birth at the end of the race.D. It wasnt Millers first time to run a marathon while pregnant.25. What is the name of Millers kid born right after the Chicago Marathon?A. Caleb B. June C. Amber D. Wisconsin.26. What can be inferred from the passage?A. People have different attitudes to Millers action.B. Miller will soon return for her favorite marathons.C. The baby was in danger at birth because of the race.D. Millers personal best in marathons was over 6 hours.27. What is the best title of the passage?A. A young American couple loving marathonsB. How to finish the latest Chicago MarathonC. How to train a pregnant woman for marathonsD. A pregnant woman giving birth after a marathonC Earlier last year, after legal pressure from A Better Balance, the National Womens Law Center, and Walmart Shareholders, Walmart announced a new nationwide policy of providing reasonable accommodations for employees “with a temporary disability caused by pregnancy”. A Walmart spokesperson stated clearly in the press that the new policy covered all pregnant associates. But when a pregnant woman called Riggins repeatedly asked Walmart for a reassignment for the sake of her pregnancy-related health needs, she got nowhere. As a result, Riggins continued to use strong chemicals to clean the bathrooms and twice ended up in the emergency room. By May, Riggins started asking for a sick leave, because she didnt feel she could risk her health any longer. Shortly thereafter, she was fired. The accommodation policy that Walmart announced in March appeared to be a critical step forward; in announcing the policy, Walmart got rid of a previous discriminatory(歧视的) rule that had clearly stated that no pregnant workers were qualified for reassignment, even as Walmart made reassignment available for workers with non-pregnancy-related disabilities. But Rigginss story and the stories of other Walmart workers around the country indicate that, in fact, this new policy has fallen far short.Indeed, over the past six months, we have continued to hear again and again from Walmart workers who asked for an accommodation while pregnant after the company had announced its change in policy, and they got nowhere.Apparently, ambiguity (不明确) at the heart of Walmarts new policy continues to harm pregnant workers. Under Walmarts new policy, it is not clear whether Walmart would allow a pregnant employee to carry a water bottle if she had a doctors note indicating she needed it in order to stay hydrated and avoid potential pregnancy-related complications. Thats because she might not be able to show she had a pregnancy-related “disability”. Without this accommodation, this worker would be forced to either harm her health or leave work, sacrificing her economy security. Walmart should take this opportunity to strengthen and fully put its pregnancy accommodation policy into effect to provide accommodation for all workers with pregnancy-related medical needs, regardless of whether they are considered to have a “disability”. A clear, properly implemented policy of providing accommodations for pregnant workers who have a medical need for them isnt just the right thing to pregnant workers and their families, and its also the right thing to do for business and our economy. Its time for women to work without fear of being forced to choose between hanging on to their jobs or risking their health.28. What is the policy mentioned in Paragraph 1 supposed to do ?A. Guarantee good services of Walmart B. Guarantee increased sales of WalmartC. Protect the rights of consumers of WalmartD. Protect the rights of pregnant women employees29. The story of the woman named Riggins is told to show .A. Walmart works hard to protect its employeesB. Walmart doesnt really carry out the new policyC. women working at Walmart welcome the new policy D. employees like using strong chemicals to clean bathrooms30. Its implied that after Walmart announced the policy, many of its employees .A. chose to become pregnant B. acquired what they requiredC. felt content to work hard for the companyD. felt encouraged to ask for an accommodation31. By writing the passage, the writer wants to .A. show his / her disappointment at Walmart B. show the importance of female employeesC. call for completely carrying out the policyD. call for the publics attention to pregnant employeesDCalifornia has been facing a drought for many years now, with certain areas even having to pump freshwater hundreds of miles to their distribution system. The problem is growing as the population of the state continues to expand. New research has found deep water reserves under the state which could help solve their drought crisis. Previous drilling of wells could only reach depths of 1,000 feet, but due to new pumping practices, water deeper than this can now be extracted （抽取）. The team at Stanford investigated the aquifers（地下蓄水层）below this depth and found that reserves may be triple what was previously thought.It is profitable to drill to depth more than 1,000 feet for oil and gas extraction, but only recently in California has it become profitable to pump water from this depth. The aquifers range from 1,000 to 3,000 feet below the ground, which means that pumping will be expensive and there are other concerns. The biggest concern of pumping out water from this depth is the gradual setting down of the land surface. As the water is pumped out, the empty space left is cut down by the weight of the earth above.Even though pumping from these depths is expensive, it is still cheaper than desalinating（脱盐）the ocean water in the largely coastal state, but they are costly to run and can need constant repairs. Wells are much more reliable sources of freshwater, and California is hoping that these deep wells may be the answer to their severe water shortage. One problem with these sources is that the deep water also has a higher level of salt than shallower aquifers. This means that some wells may even need to undergo desalination after extraction, thus increasing the cost. Research from the exhaustive study of groundwater from over 950 drilling logs has just been published. New estimates of the water reserves now go up to 2,700 billion cubic meters of freshwater.32. How could Californias drought crisis be solved according to some researchers?A. By building more reserves of groundwater.B. By drawing water from the depths of the earth.C. By developing more advanced drilling devices.D. By upgrading its water distribution system.33. What can be inferred about extracting water from deep aquifers?A. It was considered unique to solve the water problem.B. It may cost a large sum of money.C. It may not provide quality freshwater.D. It is bound to gain support from the local people.34 What is mentioned as a consequence of extracting water from deep underground?A. The sinking of land surface.B. The harm to the ecosystem.C. The damage to aquifers.D. The change of the climate.35. What does the author say about deep wells?A. They run without any need for repairs.B. They are entirely free from pollutants.C. They are the ultimate solution to droughts.D. They provide a steady supply of freshwater. 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。 Many people are stuck in a life they dont want, and are held in places by everything from financial restrictions to social pressures.
