    When he got home，McLindon，now 60，went online and found a three-wheel recumbent（侧卧的）bike with a seat belt，perfect for a child with balance issues.Soon the boy was cycling around the street with his peers，having fun and getting exercise.But there was more，as McLindon learned from his friend's reaction. "To see his son interacting with other kids，" McLindon says. "I'll never forget the smile on his face."
    That smile launched the McLindon Family Foundation.Funded by donations，the group works with pediatric rehab（小儿康复）clinics to find children who can benefit from owning bike and to help craft each bike to the particular needs of the child.A bike may include a headrest，a shoulder band，a seat belt，and a caregiver's steering and braking system in the back.The bikes are expensive-＄3，000 to ＄4，000，and that's with the foundation's large discount.For kids lucky enough to get one，they 're a life changer.
    "We worked with a 14-year-old who had a back problem，" says McLindon.She spent most days on the couch watching TV.Soon after she got her bike，she was training for special-needs triathlons（铁人三项）.In a magazine interview，she said，"I always knew there was an athlete me.
    So far，the foundation has given away 450 bikes，and that's just a start."I do a lot of things.I run a lot of companies." McLindon says."But getting these kids their bikes is the most important thing that I do."

[解析]

（1）推理判断题。根据第一段About 15 years ago，Andrew McLindon，a business owner，was riding his bike in Austin，Texas，when he thought about a friend's 12﹣year﹣old son.The boy had never known the joy of biking because he suffered from a brain condition that often caused balance disturbances（大约15年前，企业主安德鲁•麦克林登在得克萨斯州奥斯汀骑自行车时，想起了一位朋友12岁的儿子。这个男孩从来不知道骑自行车的乐趣，因为他患有一种经常导致平衡紊乱的大脑疾病）；以及第二段的When he got home，McLindon，now 60，went online and found a three﹣wheel recumbent（侧卧的）bike with a seat belt，perfect for a child with balance issues（回到家后，现年60岁的麦克林登上网发现了一辆侧卧的，带安全带的三轮摩托车，非常适合有平衡问题的孩子），可知想帮助一个有平衡问题的男孩的渴望激发了安德鲁•麦克林登在网上寻找一辆特殊的自行车，故选D。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段的Soon the boy was cycling around the street with his peers，having fun and getting exercise（很快，男孩就和同龄人一起在街上骑自行车，玩得很开心，锻炼身体），可知自适应自行车可以提供锻炼和乐趣，故选B。
（3）细节理解题。根据第三段的That smile launched the McLindon Family Foundation.Funded by donations，the group works with pediatric rehab（小儿康复）clinics to find children who can benefit from owning bike and to help craft each bike to the particular needs of the child（这个微笑引发了麦克林登家庭基金会的成立。该基金会由捐款资助，与儿科康复中心合作，寻找可以从拥有自行车中受益的儿童，并帮助制作每辆自行车以满足儿童的特殊需求），可知麦克林登家庭基金会的成立是为了给残疾儿童提供合适的自行车，故选C。
（4）推理判断题。根据最后一段 So far，the foundation has given away 450 bikes，and that's just a start."I do a lot of things.I run a lot of companies." McLindon says."But getting these kids their bikes is the most important thing that I do"（到目前为止，该基金会已经赠送了450辆自行车，这只是一个开始。"我做了很多事情。我经营着很多公司。"麦克林登说。"但让这些孩子骑自行车是我做的最重要的事情"），可知麦克林登认为他在麦克林登家庭基金会的工作是值得付出努力的，故选A。

205206. （2021•长安区一中•高一上期末） Recently whenever I turned on my computer or my mobile phone，news about the great effect of Hurricane Harvey（哈维飓风）on thousands of people caught my eye.I saw many unfortunate events.However，there was also lots of bright news that showed the goodness of mankind.As a reporter，I reported many human-interest stories when doing my job.That's why the story about the guys in the bakery caught my eye.
   When the workers at a Mexican bakery chain in Houston were trapped inside the building for two days，they didn't sit there feeling sorry for themselves.They used their time wisely after flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey.While waiting for the eventual rescue that came on Monday morning，the four workers decided to make as many loaves of bread as possible for people around the neighborhood.They talked to their manager about their plan over the phone and the manager agreed.
   The flood water rose in the street outside.They took advantage of their emergency power supply to bake bread.They used more than 4，200 pounds of flour（面粉）to create hundreds of loaves and sheets of sweet bread.Although the water kept rising，they continued baking to help more people.By the time the manager managed to get to them，they had made so much bread that they took the loaves to lots of emergency centers across the city for people affected by the floods.
   The store manager，Brian Alvarado，told The Independent，"They've done more than they should have done.And what they had done has lit a light for people.I feel lucky to have them work in the bakery."
   Whenever a disaster occurs，nobody should feel forlorn.Instead，we should stay hopeful and take positive action to save ourselves and help others.Our acts of kindness will make a big difference to the people in the world as well as the world itself.

205041. （2022•莲湖区•高二下期末） As I put down the exercise equipment，my brain tries to focus on what my trainer has said.
   "Describe that to me，" asked Rob.He is looking for an answer that required me to connect my brain to my body.
   Yes，I know.My brain is connected to my body—the thing that has been carrying my head around for the last 56 years.Since completing my undergraduate degree I have been increasingly immobilized by my working life.Sitting still at a desk，staring at a screen，it's mostly through my fingers that I connect to my brain.
   "I felt great，" I reply. "I could feel it in my back." Rob is quick to encourage and set up more weight.Then cheerfully he'll say "okay，next set."
   Every accomplishment in my life has been entered in my head—grades，degrees，promotions，published papers and teaching.But on reflection，I wasn't paying much attention to my body.
   Weightlifting is different.Rob is a trainer and manager at my local gym，my guide in helping me with a single goal—get strong.Despite my age，size and beginner status，Rob has made me feel safe.He is always close by，watching and posing questions.Like "where did you feel that？" or the more general request， "Describe that for me."
   Early on I took these as rote pleasantries.Over time I realized he wanted more than just routine answers.Having shown me how to do an exercise，Rob would encourage me to think about the muscle or chain of muscles as they moved.The questions were a test of that connection.Gradually，I started thinking my way back into my body.Not my body as a whole but as individual，connections to newly identified places.Intentionally.Specifically.Magically.It's surprisingly difficult.
   I am five months into a new way of living with this 56-year-old body.It talks to me in a totally different way now.It reminds me of my capabilities，my muscles calling me to move，demanding to be challenged.And I long to continue this dialogue so that I'm ready the next time Rob says： "Describe that tome."
