专题限时集训(十)　词义猜测之推测单词、短语、句子的含义A (2020·广东四校联考)Kyle Cassidy and three other members of the Annenberg Running Group were stretching on the ground of the University of Pennsylvania, waiting for a few latecomers.The Penn colleagues and other community members meet three days a week for a roughly 30­minute jog and an occasional lecture.That's right—during some runs，one of them delivers a talk.Topics range from the brain to the Bitcoin.But on this day last January，it would not be their normal run.The first clue that something was off was the man who sprinted past them.“Running at an amazing pace，”Cassidy told Runner's World admiringly.Cassidy discovered why the sprinter was so fleet of foot when another man ran by，yelling，“Help！He took my phone and laptop！”At that time，the group did what running clubs do：They ran，trailing the suspect down the streets of Philadelphia until he ducked into a construction site.The runners split up.Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had dumped the loot(赃物) in a backyard.No luck.So they decided to ask residents whether they'd seen the guy.When they knocked on the door of one row house，they were in for a surprise.Unknown to them，he had already emerged from the construction site—and was hiding behind a bush by that very house.As the owner opened the door，the suspect darted out from behind the bush...and right into the arms of the campus police，who'd joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not hard­core athletes. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise.“Running is typically a useless sport where you turn fat cells into heat，”Cassidy told The Philadelphia Inquirer.“But occasionally it can be useful，and here was one of those opportunities.”【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。

根据Cassidy抓捕窃贼的行为判断他应该乐于帮助他人；再根据他接受媒体采访时所说的话“Running is typically a useless sport where you turn fat cells into heat”和“But occasionally it can be useful，and here was one of those opportunities”可知，他也是一个风趣幽默的人]BWhile visiting the North Pole in winter may not be at the top of your bucket list，the ever­changing ICEHOTEL，which opened its doors to visitors on December 14 this year，may change your mind.200 km north of the Arctic Circle in the Swedish village of Jukkasjärvi，the hotel，which is carved entirely from ice，is rebuilt annually.The 35 rooms，built to accommodate visitors on all kinds of budgets，vary from expensive suites to basic rooms that are furnished with just an icy bed and a reindeer skin.Among the highlights this year is the “Spruce Woods” suite.Sculpted by Christopher Pascoe and Jennie O'Keefe of Canada，it describes a camping scene complete with a classic microbus，a forest，and even an artificial campfire.There is also the artfully­carved“Living Ocean” suite to remind visitors of the importance of saving our oceans.The room is full of carved sea life that includes coral and a shark “swimming”right over the ice bed.“The suite is inspired by global warming and the overfishing that affects our oceans，”says artist Jonathan Paul Green.“I also think the idea of using frozen water from a river in northern Sweden to create an ocean with shells，fish，and coral is exciting.”The nearby “Haven” suite is a “magical gate of ice” guarded by two large animals.“We are inspired by the meeting between people and want to create an experience that stimulates curiosity and creativity，”says artist Jonas Johansson.“It feels like a dream to get to work with ice that allows our love for light，shine，and reflection to wander freely from thought to creation.”Regardless of whether visitors select the carved suites or the basic ice rooms，the temperature is always set to a bone­chilling －5℃！That is why guests are advised to snuggle(蜷伏) up inside sleeping bags and wear gloves and winter hats all。
