Ⅰ.阅读理解

(2024·江西五校联考)In Flanders, the best advice given to a confused cyclist is: Keep calm and check your numbers.Many riders have a string of numbers with them, preprinted or handwritten on a piece of paper.The numbers are a road map to the route.
Nearly 220 miles of cycling paths go through the region in northern Belgium.Each path is numbered, and before setting out, cyclists can check an interactive map to create a sequence (顺序) that's unique to their route.Arrows point riders in the right direction on their way across villages, forests, and fields.And as they ride, cyclists look at the blue signs and then their string of numbers to ensure they're on the right track.
The network opened in 1990, after being proposed by Belgian mining engineer Hugo Bollen.In the early 20th century, the region experienced an economic boom, particularly in the province of Limburg, which was mined for coal.But by the 1980s, those businesses started to close, and towns needed something else to restart their economic engines.Bollen came up with an idea of developing tourism by depending on another natural resource that was plentiful in the region: astonishing landscapes.He suggested a bike network and because the names of villages and towns could be hard to remember, he proposed a system based on numbers.
The routes are organized around themes designed to inspire people and are not necessarily meant to be the most efficient paths from one destination to another.These paths celebrate the journey and the scenic spots along the way.Cyclists can choose to ride through strawberry fields, for instance, or around a brewery known for its high-quality beer. History lovers can choose paths that link up with various sites of historic battles from both world wars, particularly near the border with France.Besides, there are still signs of the region's mining heritage across Limburg.
Over the years, the region's tourism agency has added some new attractions along the route, while still highlighting nature and local ecosystems.Kate Vandy, a cyclist from the U.K., said, “You'll soon lose yourself in shades of green, and the white of apple flowers.”

(2024·龙岩高三模拟)The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) included China's Tai Chi on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity on December 17, 2020. The decision was announced during the online meeting of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage held from December 14 to 19 in Kingston, capital of Jamaica.
“Born in the mid-17th century in a small village named Chenjiagou located in central China's Henan Province, Tai Chi is not only a kind of traditional Wushu integrated with slow movements and deep breathing, but is also deeply rooted in many areas of Chinese culture, such as medicine and philosophy,” Zhu Xianghua says, who is the son of the famous Tai Chi master Zhu Tiancai.
Although it has spread to more than 150 countries and regions, attracting more than 100 million people to practice, the idea that Tai Chi is for the elderly has stopped many young people practicing the ancient Wushu.They think of it as a slow exercise, which is specially made and better suited for their grandparents.Instead, many young people are turning to the Indian practice of yoga to relieve stress, which was placed on the UNESCO's List in 2019.
In order to promote Tai Chi, joint efforts have been made from individuals and the Chinese government in the last decades.Xi'an Jiaotong University requires students to learn Tai Chi.Wang Yunbing, a professor in the university's sports center, stressed that Tai Chi is not only good physical exercise — researchers from the American College of Rheumatology find that it can help manage several diseases — but is also connected to ancient Chinese civilization.Since 2014,
the World Tai Chi Championships have been held every two years by the International Wushu Federation.It provides a platform for communication and learning between the Tai Chi masters and Tai Chi lovers around the globe.In January 2020, Tai Chi became an official event in the 2026 Dakar Youth Olympic Games.

In the wintertime, runners in northern climates must decide whether to continue exercising outdoors or move inside to a treadmill (跑步机). Basically, running in cold temperatures is — for most people — a safe and effective workout. Let's check the health benefits of running in cold weather below.
Running in cold weather can energize the body. By doing this, you tend to be more active. 9 Furthermore, take notes to always have your meals before running in cold weather. Then, your food will be changed into energy for sure.
In fact, running can be great to promote the healthy heart. 10 Cold weather can promote the heart to work harder and enhance the good blood regulation in the body. Indeed, it will help to make the stronger heart muscle during the cold weather.
11 In short, your body needs to work harder to keep warm, which will cost more calories. Running in cold weather may burn 2,000 more calories per day, on average, compared to 1,000 calories in warm weather. By running more over winter, you could actually enjoy an extra benefit — weight loss.
Another benefit you can get from running in cold weather is to prevent earlier aging. You may be surprised with this one. But, this is linked with the ability of cold-weather running to reduce the tendency for the body to experience the mass of bone and muscle wasting. 12__
Interesting enough, running during cold weather can help you to lift the mood up. 13 It is surveyed that running outdoors in winter can achieve less depression. Moreover, when the weather gives you cold, in contrast, the body gets warmer during running or workout. As a result, you will feel happier for sure.
A.Therefore, it is time to try this one to keep young.
B.Admittedly, cold weather can help burn calories.
C.It will help to promote the energy building in the body.
D.This is linked to the food satisfaction in the cold weather.
E.But, if you run in cold weather, it will boost the benefit more.
F.The cold weather can reduce heat stress and make an easier run.
G.It is linked to the wet and the air feeling which makes you feel calm.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在寒冷的天气下跑步对健康产生的益处。
9.选C 上文提到在寒冷的天气跑步会让你变得更活跃,C项“这将有助于提升身体所需的能量”与上文构成因果关系,表明冬季跑步让人更活跃的结果就是有助于提升身体所需要的能量,it指代上文doing this。
10.选E 上文指出跑步可以促进心脏健康;下文提到,寒冷天气会让心脏更加努力工作。由此推知,如果在冬季跑步,好处会更多。E项“如果你在寒冷的天气里跑步,它会让你受益更多”符合题意。

12.选A 空处位于段末,应承接上文。上文说明了冬季跑步可以减少对身体骨骼和肌肉的消耗,A项“因此,是时候尝试这个方法保持年轻了”与上文构成因果关系。
13.选G 上文说明冬季跑步可以使人拥有好情绪,G项“这和潮湿及使你觉得平静的空气感觉有关”是对冬季跑步可以提升情绪的解释说明,构成因果关系。
