浙江（杭州市）2016高考英语阅读理解二轮（基础）演练（2） 【2016模拟题】 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 Winter Vinecki began running at age five, but got serious in 2015 after her father died of cancer — that’s when she decided to honor his memory by running a marathon on every continent before her 15th birthday. Scope: Team Winter is an organization you founded to raise money for cancer research. How did it get started? Winter: At first, Team Winter was formed to fight childhood obesity. When I was 8, I ran a race and raised $1,100 for that cause. But less than a year later, my dad got cancer. I knew I had to do something to help. When I started, my goal was to raise $10,000. I’ve raised well past that — almost $500,000. Scope: What goes through your mind when you run? Winter: When I’m having a hard time during a race, I think about my dad. If he could deal with the pain of cancer, I can deal with any type of pain. He was a very friendly person. He was always smiling and very happy even when he had cancer. Scope: Is your age ever an obstacle in your races? Winter: I’ve been turned down by race directors who won’t let anyone younger than 16 or 18 compete. But Diana Nyad, the first person to swim from Cuba to Florida without a shark cage, told me, “Never let them tell you it can’t be done.” From then on I knew my age wasn’t the problem. Scope: You’ve probably inspired lots of people too. Winter: I’ve heard about kids doing projects like me. Once in a restaurant, a boy came up to my mom and me and told us his dad had cancer too. Now he’s competing in running for his dad. Hearing stories like that helps keep me going. 1. What do we know about Team Winter? A. It always holds different races. B.
