1 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

I have been working as an enthusiastic journalist since I graduated from college. We live in a new age of storytelling, with     1     variety of new multimedia tools. Many young people rely on     2     (they) but they don’t even realize it’s new. For them, it’s just normal.

This became clear to me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday. He was in good hands with her parents. Before I accompanied him, a children’s book     3     (buy) by me for him to read. It had simple words and colorful children’s book pictures—a perfect match for his age.

Then one afternoon, with my grandson sitting on my lap, I held the book in front of him so he could see the pictures. As I was reading, he reached out and delightedly poked (戳) the page with his finger.

What was up with that? He just liked the pictures, I thought. Then I had the page turned and continued. He poked the page even harder, which made me nearly drop the book.     4     (feel) confused, I wished to know his real     5     (motivate) .

Then I draw a conclusion from what was happening. He was actually a stranger to books. His father,     6     occupation is an engineer, frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that came alive when he poked them.

Sorry, kid. I am     7     favour of high technology but this book is     8     (distinct) not part of your high-tech world. It’s an outdated, lifeless thing. An antique (古董) , like your grandfather. Well, I may be old, but I’m not hopelessly challenged in terms of digital technology. I edit video and produce audio (音频) . I use mobile payment. I’ve even built websites.

I am     9     (convince) that there’s an apparent gap in my new-media experience. I’ve spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a voice for radio. But that didn’t stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story for a video project about the integration (融合) of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province. It was     10     memorable an event in my life. I also participated in other video projects organized by the newspaper.

Several years ago, I started riding a bike. At first, I thought it was only a short ride. But as I built up my strength, my friends inspired me to try some longer trips. The first one to come along was a 150-mile journey, an event held every year that raises money to fight cancer.

With my name     1    (sign), the idea seemed great. It was to support a worthy cause when we went for the distance. Of course, I should devote     2    ( I) to such a cause. And I trained with great excitement. But as the time for the ride approached, myself-doubt gained ground against my endurance(耐力). I didn’t really want to bicycle all those miles for two days straight.

The ride began on a Sunday morning in the Georgia countryside: There were a number of strong riders. For the first few hours, I felt wonderful. This was just the experience I had imagined, and my spirits were high. There were not many vehicles on the way. But by the end of the day, I had felt    3    (extreme) tired. I was sure I would give up before I reached the destination.

As I was riding to the top of the hill, the very     4    (fantasy) sunset which appealed to me so much kept me going for a few minutes more, I said to myself, “So far I    5    (cover) half of the distance. That is enough.” Then in the distance, I saw alone(独自的) rider riding very slowly. I noticed that the person looked different in tin some way, but I couldn’t tell the reason    6    that person was different. I was fast enough    7    (catch) up with her. There she was, riding slowly but steadily, with a determined smile on her face—but she had only one leg. I thought he    8    have trained hard before because she was so skilled in riding the bike, She was a    9    (represent) of people with strong determination.

Then I took my attitude    10    account. My focus changed at that moment. I’d been doubting my body for a whole day. But now I knew—it wasn’t the body, but the will that would help me reach my goal. I ought to finish the long and hard trip.
