3 . 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Last fall, I came up with a good idea to tell my friend Melanie that she and I should enter a backcountry ski mountaineering race. The mountain is 40 miles from Crested Butte to Aspen, Colorado, and it required us to race as a team. Neither of us had ever done a ski race, but we’d always been good partners on mountain bikes, so I thought we’d be well-matched in the ski race, too.

However, on our first long training day together, Melanie dropped me again and again. As she disappeared out of sight on our last climb, I complained to myself, “Why had I come up with this stupid idea? Why wasn’t she waiting?” When I finally caught up, Melanie asked, “Are you OK?” I opened my mouth to respond and — oh, no — tears (眼泪) began running down my face. I felt sad and embarrassed. Crying was a behavior I connected with myself as a beginner who did most often in the years when I was learning to mountain bike. Seeing this, Melanie said with motherly concern, “I think you peed to have a rest and eat something.”

She was right. Rest and sugar improved my mood. Finally, we began going down the mountain together and we joked about my tears. In the days that followed, we kept training hard for the race day.

Despite the difficult start to our training, on race day, Melanie and I proved to be a good pair. The race began at midnight, and for six hours we schussed (直线滑降) together as a team through the darkness. But as the sun began to rise, we found ourselves pushing as hard as we could to make it to Star Pass, the high point of the race, by the important 7 am. Unluckily, we lost the race because we were 2 minutes late.

5 . 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。

The last time Tokyo hosting the Summer Olympic Games was in 1964.     1     (welcome) athletes and fans from around the world, some 75,000 people roared with applause at the opening ceremonies. The athletes snaked through crowds of fans     2     (wave) flags during the torch relay (火炬传递).

But this year, Tokyo looked and felt nothing     3    those Games — or any other Olympics of the past. There were no spectators in     4    Tokyo area. For the first time, an Olympics     5     (postpone) due to the coronavirus pandemic (流行病)     6    has spread throughout the world. The 2020 Tokyo Olympics, as it is still branded despite being held in summer 2021, was     7     (large) a virtual and muted (无声的) affair. With a summer resurgence (复苏) of COVID cases in Tokyo and the global rise of the delta variant (变异), Olympics officials in early July decided no ticketed spectators would be allowed at     8     (competition) in and around Tokyo.

Brand new Olympic venues remained vacant of fans as athletes competed. Marathon runners and race walkers competed in     9     (silent) without any crowds cheering them on. Perhaps the     10     (different) part was that fans could click the “Cheer” button on the Olympics virtual-viewing platform.
