(2024·辽宁省县级重点高中联合体模拟)Ida Keeling had grown up poor in Harlem and done hard, grinding work in factories during the Great Depression.She had lost her husband early to a heart attack, and two of her four children—both of her sons—died in accidents.Keeling had sunk into a deep depression.Her health had begun to slide and her daughter, Cheryl, began to worry that she soon might be losing her mother as well.
Keeling's daughter is a lifelong athlete.That may be what would pull her mother out from under her dark cloud.She suggested a run.Not just a jog around the block, but an official run.At the time, Ida Keeling was 67.
It had been decades since Keeling had done any running, and she would later recall that the first “mini-run” was wonderful.“I just threw off all my bad memories,” Keeling says.She hasn't stopped running since, and it's no longer the difficulty it was during that first meet.Since then, Keeling has set records for 60 meters in the 95-99 age group, and in 100 meters for the over 100 group.“I was just exercising,” she says, “and now I'm all over the world.”
When she's not running, she's working out.She's in the gym three to four days a week, running, working out with weights and pedaling on the exercise bike—and even exercising while she's cooking.Part of her healthy diet is an occasional dose of red wine mixed with her coffee or water to aid blood circulation.She's written a book about her experiences, titled Can't Nothing Bring Me Down: Chasing Myself in the Race Against Time.Her philosophy is also fit for a runner: “Every day is another day forward.”

(2024·济宁市模拟)Several years ago, I was at a pre-season football practice at a high school where I was working with the team on a concussion (脑震荡) research project.The players were lined up in two rows facing each other and with little more instruction from the coach than, “on the whistle, hit the man across from you”, great concern rushed through my mind.
Professional sports get the lion's share of attention, but over three million children and teenagers in the United States play the same game.This directly places concussions as a significant public health concern for all.
However, for decades, concussion has been considered a temporary injury with no long-term consequences.Many athletes will do just about anything to stay on the field and “play through the pain” as a sign of toughness.In 2005, with the release of the brain tissue pathology (病理学) report of Mike Webster, a retired National Football League player, our thinking on concussion began to shift.Since then, public attention has focused on this link between brain injury and blows to the head.As our understanding of concussion progressed to understanding its significance as an injury, so too did the development of player equipment.
In the early 1900s football was played without helmets (头盔), but severe injuries, like skull fractures, led to the occasional use of leather helmets in the 1920s.The first facemask entered the game in the 1950s.Modern helmets use advanced shell materials, have moveable panels to absorb forces, and multi-layered padding that responds to different impacts.Companies will continue to improve helmets as new materials become available, guided by the newest science.
Sports are an important part of a society's culture and they give millions of children much-needed exercise.Yet, participation in any sport carries injury risk, and concussion will always be part of that.As those children become adults and make sport their hobby or even career, ensuring them play safely at all levels is essential.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述运动中的安全问题,以脑震荡为例,由一开始的忽视到后来得到重视的过程,来以此告诉我们运动中安全问题至关重要。
5.What made the author feel concerned?
A.The coach's in experience.
B.The physical conflicts among the players.
C.Unawareness of the potential injuries.
D.Unpredictable outcome of the project.
解析:C 推理判断题。根据第一段可知,作者当时正与球队一起进行脑震荡研究项目,而教练命令队员去撞对面的人,由此可推论出,作者一定是担心教练没有意识到其中潜在的伤害。故选C项。
6.What did athletes use to do when meeting with sports-related concussion?
A.They tended to ignore it.
B.They felt scared about it.
C.They quit playing immediately.
D.They refused medical assistance.
解析:A 细节理解题。根据第三段的“However, for decades, concussion has been considered a temporary injury with no long-term consequences.Many athletes will do just about anything to stay on the field and ‘play through the pain’ as a sign of toughness.”可知,运动员在遇到与运动相关的脑震荡时往往会忽视它。故选A项。
7.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about concerning the helmet?
A.Its gradual improvement.
B.Its widespread influence.
C.The discovery of its new materials.
D.The difficulty of its mass production.
解析:A 段落大意题。通读第四段可知,该段主要是说运动员所戴头盔的改进与变化。故选A项。
8.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Exercise is vital for children.
B.Sports safety can't be overemphasized.
C.No participation in sports is without injuries.
D.Concussion is the most common injury in sports.

1.解析:D 空前讲“瑜伽因有助于改善平衡和灵活性,以及有助于让人获得平静和放松而享有当之无愧的声誉”,这是介绍瑜伽的好处;空后说“这里有更多关于练瑜伽是如何成为一种完整的身心锻炼的消息”,所以空处也应是关于瑜伽的好处。故选D。
