02 Period II Discovering Useful Structures—Reading for Writing Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练 1 A [重庆一中2024高一期中] My son loves hockey （冰球）. As his supportive fan, I watched him playing in all the matches across half of the USA this year, and I’ve learnt that losing may be best for kids. In his third season in 2022, my son’s team never lost more than three straight games. There was happiness, boasting, celebration, pizza. In short, it was a typically good youth hockey season. He improved as a player but did not much change as a person. However, what happened the next year added its story to the legends of sporting inability. Not only weak but prettily bad, this team lost 40 of their first 50 games, most of the defeats coming in the course of two losing streaks （连败）. For a time, I worried that these streaks would kill my child’s love of the game. But that’s not what happened. As bad as it got, the losing was clarifying. It weeded out （淘汰） the kids who were in it less for the game than the glory, leaving just the diehards behind. What started as a list of 17 of the team was cut down to 12. It was especially instructive for the kids. It taught them a great truth of the world: For everyone good, there is someone better. 刷阅读理解 2 What’s more, the kids were learning the game in a way that only losing can teach. Each player got to play everywhere, to learn and appreciate the role of every position on the ice. They kept an eye on their opponents too, studying and applying the tricks of success. In an effort to break the streak, they went back to basics, accepted the intelligence of the hockey ancients: An average team that plays like a team defeats a collection of all-stars. This new team had character and could never be counted out, no matter the score. They had learnt the most important lesson: You can lose without being beaten. They squeaked into the state game, then made it all the way to the final, where the winner was decided in overtime （加时赛）. When they lost that game and went into the handshake line, it was not as runners-up but as a team that had been made into winners in the only way that will stick—by losing. 刷阅读理解 3 【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过讲述儿子在冰球队的比赛经历，谈论了失败和挫折在成长中的重要性。 1.What did the author think about his son’s team in the third season in 2022?( ) B A.It succeeded as a result of good luck. B.It had an extremely impressive performance. C.It didn’t live up to the author’s expectations. D.It behaved rather badly in three straight games. 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的In his third season in 2022, my son’s team never lost more than three straight games. There was happiness, boasting, celebration, pizza. In short, it was a typically good youth hockey season.可知，作者儿子的球队在2022年第三赛季从未连续输掉超过三场比赛，这是一个美好的青少年冰球赛季，因此，这个球队的表现令人印象深刻。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 4 2.What does the underlined word “clarifying” refer to?( ) D A.The losing improved their teamwork. B.The losing made them better understand hockey. C.The losing helped them learn a great truth of the world. D.The losing kept true players instead of those for honour. 解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的It weeded out the kids who were in it less for the game than the glory, leaving just the diehards behind.可知，输掉比赛虽然很糟，但它可以淘汰那些只为了荣誉的孩子，留下真正热爱这项运动的孩子。这句话是对上一句中提到的the losing was clarifying的解释：留住了真正的球员，而不是那些追求荣誉的球员。故选D项。 刷阅读理解 5 关键点拨 抓住关键信息理解文意 此处the losing was clarifying是作者的一个观点，紧接着作者给出了解释，因此画线词所在句的下一句就是猜测词义的关键依据。在这句话中，关键词为weeded out和less for the game than the glory。掌握了关键信息后，再结合上下文进行通读，然后对比四个选项的表述即可确定答案。 刷阅读理解 6 3.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs about the new team?( ) D A.They finally became the winner.

B.The hardest fight is to fight oneself. C.Many hands make light work. D.Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. 解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的They had learnt the most important lesson: You can lose without being beaten.可知，他们学到的是永不言败的精神，纵然跌倒，也要重新站起。故选A项。 刷阅读理解 8 B [江苏盐城五校2024高一期末] Sports play a key role in the physical and mental development of children. Although it’s great to see a child succeed in one sport, it’s important to keep their activities in balance. Participation in multiple sports enables children to acquire a knowledge of many movement skills. In addition to this, here are some very good reasons why kids should be encouraged to play several multi-sports. Repetitive movements can overstress growing bodies, which later on can lead to injuries. With multi-sports, each sport works the body slightly differently. This will lead to fewer overuse injuries. Also, kids who overspecialise in one sport may end up losing interest and eventually quit. Specialising in a sport raises expectations and may put too much pressure on young kids. Having a variety of experiences will keep children interested and motivated, and even make them enjoy sports without any pressure. 刷阅读理解 9 Multi-sports also allow kids to experience different roles. Being a goalkeeper in a football team is very different from being a point guard in basketball. Being exposed to baseball develops better hand-eye coordination （协调）. Soccer develops better footwork （步法）. Volleyball develops jumping and hand-eye coordination. Martial arts develop strength, mobility, and discipline. Swimming develops full-body coordination and strength. The list goes on and on! Participation in multiple sports broadens a child’s developmental, social, and situational experience. It opens up opportunities to become a better competitor and a promising athlete—flexible and energetic. Besides developing a wide range of sports skills, more importantly, multi-sports provide opportunities for children to discover their liking. With the help of the right coaches, sports become fun, arousing kids’ interest. So if you can’t decide whether your child should focus on one sport or try some different sports, I hope you can make a better decision now. 刷阅读理解 10 【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了应该让儿童参与多种体育运动，因为这样可以避免单一运动造成的损伤和无趣，帮助孩子培养多项身体能力并助力全面发展，同时引导孩子发现自己真正的兴趣所在。 1.What will happen to kids if they do one sport repeatedly?( ) D A.They can stay more focused. B.They can spare more time to study. C.They can be skilled at the sport early. D.They can be more likely to get injured. 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的Repetitive movements can overstress growing bodies, which later on can lead to injuries.可知，如果儿童重复进行同样的运动，会导致身体负担过重，后期很可能会受伤。故选D项。 刷阅读理解 11 2.What’s implied about multi-sports in paragraph 3?( ) D A.They inspire kids’ sporting spirit. B.They help kids develop their special talents. C.They have much higher requirements for kids.
