限时规范练(九)　UNIT 3　On the move (限时30分钟) Ⅰ.阅读理解 A In the first half of the 20th century，weekend escapes in the United States often meant hopping a train to a nearby town，city，or country inn.Here are several new or restored routes that let you ditch your car for a weekend trip. Route 1 Miami to West Palm Beach，Florida Florida's Brightline，the only privately funded inter­city train system in the U.S.，restarted nearly hourly services from Miami to West Palm Beach (with a stop in Fort Lauderdale) in late 2021.The electric­and diesel­powered trains can go as fast as 79 miles per hour，meaning the journey from Miami Central station to West Palm takes just 75 minutes.Continuing service north to Orlando launches next year. Route 2 San Francisco to Truckee，California The full route of Amtrak's California Zephyr—revived(恢复) in May after a pandemic(流行病) suspension—takes 51 hours to travel from the Bay Area to Chicago (or vice versa).But if you take the leg just from San Francisco to Truckee，California，a five­hour trip lands you in one of the most historic，scenic towns in the Lake Tahoe area. Route 3 New York City to Burlington，Vermont Revived in July 2022 the Ethan Alen Express takes just under eight hours to travel from New York City to Burlington，Vermont.It passes New York State's Adirondack Mountains and Vermont's Green Mountains on route to Burlington，the state capital and one of America's hippest(时髦的) small cities. Route 4 Washington，D.C.，to Roanoke，Virginia It's about a five­hour train trip from Washington，D.C.'s Union Station to Roanoke，Virginia.In July，high demand led Amtrak to add a second daily train to and from the historic Blue Ridge Mountains city.This expanded Route 46，a shared service of Amtrak and the Virginia Passenger Rail Authority (VPRA)，resulted in a 28.9 percent increase in ridership for July over the previous month. 1.Which of the four routes takes the shortest time? A.Route 1. B.Route 2. C.Route 3. D.Route 4. 2.What is special about Route 4 compared with the other routes? A.It takes the longest time. B.You can have two options in a day. C.You can experience beautiful scenes. D.There are fewer passengers there. 3.What does Route 2 and Route 4 have in common? A.Passengers are growing quickly in both routes. B.Both routes are crowded with tourists. C.Both routes are revived just after the pandemic. D.Passengers can enjoy historic scenes in both routes. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了美国四条适合周末旅行的火车路线。 1.A　[解析]细节理解题。根据“Route 1 Miami to West Palm Beach，Florida”部分的the journey from Miami Central station to West Palm takes just 75 minutes，“Route 2 San Francisco to Truckee，California”部分的a five­hour trip，“Route 3 New York City to Burlington，Vermont”部分的the Ethan Alen Express takes just under eight hours，和“Route 4 Washington，D.C.，to Roanoke，Virginia”部分的It's about a five­hour train trip可知，四条线路中，花的时间最短的是线路1。故选A。 2.B　[解析]推理判断题。根据“Route 4 Washington，D.C.，to Roanoke，Virginia”部分的“In July，high demand led Amtrak to add a second daily train to and from the historic Blue Ridge Mountains city.”可推知，4号路线的特殊之处是它一天有两趟车，因此游客一天可以有两种选择。故选B。 3.D　[解析]细节理解题。根据“Route 2 San Francisco to Truckee，California”部分的“But if you take the leg just from San Francisco to Truckee，California，a five­hour trip lands you in one of the most historic，scenic towns in the Lake Tahoe area.”以及“Route 4 Washington，D.C.，to Roanoke，Virginia”部分的“In July，high demand led Amtrak to add a second daily train to and from the historic Blue Ridge Mountains city.”可知，2号线和4号线的共同之处是乘客可以在这两条线路上欣赏历史景观。故选D。 B Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running，research shows，while most likely contributing to fewer injuries.It does，however，have its own problem. Race walkers are conditioned athletes.The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50­kilometer race walk，which is about five miles longer than the marathon.But the sport's rules require that a race walker's knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact(接触) with the ground at all times.It's this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity，however，says Jaclyn Norberg，an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem，Mass. Like running，race walking is physically demanding，she says.According to most calculations，race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里) per hour，which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking，although fewer than running，which would probably burn about 1，000 or more calories per hour. However，race walking does not pound the body as much as running does，Dr.Norberg says.According to her research，runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step，while race walkers，who do not leave the ground，create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. As a result，she says，some of the injuries associated with running，such as runner's knee，are uncommon among race walkers.But the sport's strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips，so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport.In fact，anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique，she says.It takes some practice. 4.Why are race walkers conditioned athletes? A.They must run long distances. B.They have to follow special rules. C.They are qualified for the marathon. D.They are good at swinging their legs. 5.What advantage does race walking have over running? A.It's less challenging physically. B.It's more popular at the Olympics. C.It's less likely to cause knee injuries. D.It's more effective in body building. 6.What is Dr.Norberg's suggestion for someone trying race walking? A.Doing regular exercises. B.Having a medical checkup. C.Hiring an experienced coach. D.Getting experts' opinions. 7.Which word best describes the author's attitude to race walking? A.Objective. B.Doubtful. C.Tolerant. D.Supportive. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了竞走相比跑步有诸多的优势，但是之前受过伤的人想从事竞走运动最好咨询专家的建议。 4.B　[解析]推理判断题。根据第二段中的“But the sport's rules require that a race walker's knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact with the ground at all times.”可知，竞走运动员有条件要求是因为他们需要遵守某些特殊的运动规则。故选B。 5.C　[解析]细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“As a result，she says，some of the injuries associated with running，such as runner's knee，are uncommon among race walkers.”可知，竞走与跑步相比，它的优势是不太可能导致膝盖受伤。故选C。 6.D　[解析]细节理解题。根据最后一段倒数第二句可知，Dr.Norberg建议想尝试竞走的人咨询专家的建议。故选D。 7.A　[解析]推理判断题。根据文章第一段可知，作者既提及了竞走的优势，又话锋一转指出它的问题。由此推知，作者对于竞走的态度是客观的。故选A。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2024·云南下关一中模拟)Life is full of ups and downs.You must understand that you will sometimes 1 in things and it is okay when that happens. From being a kid to transitioning(转变) into a(n) 2 adult，you will fail in many things in life but that will only 3 you more about yourself.You will get to learn about your true 4 ，the things you are good at，and the things that you are bad at.
