(本栏目内容,在学生用书中以独立形式分册装订!)
(时间:30分钟 满分:45分)
Ⅰ.阅读理解(本题共7个小题,每小题2.5分,共17.5分)
A
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.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Keeling在67岁时开始尝试跑步。跑步不仅锻炼了她的身体,而且使她忘掉了自己的烦恼。
1.Why did Keeling start to run at an old age?
A.She wanted her daughter getting out of dark cloud.
B.She wanted to learn from her daughter.
C.Cheryl persuaded her to do so.
D.Cheryl wanted her to be a lifelong runner.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段“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.”可知,Keeling的女儿认为跑步能让母亲从悲伤中解脱出来,因此她建议母亲跑步。
2.How did Keeling feel about her first “mini-run”?
A.Pleased. B.Curious.
C.Annoyed. D.Proud.
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“It had been decades since Keeling had done any running,and she would later recall that the first ‘mini-run’ was wonderful.”可知,在Keeling的第一次迷你跑中,她感到很愉悦。
3.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Early hard life of Keeling
B.The benefit of running for Keeling's later life
C.The significance of caring for old people
D.Every day is precious for old people
答案:B
解析:标题归纳题。根据全文可知,文章主要讲述Keeling晚年开始跑步,跑步给她带来了意想不到的好处。所以“The benefit of running for Keeling's later life”作为文章标题最为合适。
B
Regular physical activity had nearly doubled cardiovascular (心血管的) benefits in individuals with depression or anxiety,compared with individuals without these diagnoses,according to a study presented at the American College of Cardiology's 71st Annual Scientific Session.
The research findings add to mounting evidence that exercise improves cardiovascular health by helping to activate parts of the brain that counteract stress.Overall,the study found that people who achieved the recommended amount of physical activity per week were 17% less likely to suffer a major harmful cardiovascular event than those who exercised less.These benefits were significantly greater in those with anxiety or depression,who had a 22% risk reduction vs.a 10% risk reduction in those without either condition.
“The effect of physical activity on the brain's stress response may be particularly relevant to those with stress-related mental conditions,” said Hadil Zureigat,MD,postdoctoral clinical research fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital and the study's lead author.“This is not to suggest that exercise is only effective in those with depression or anxiety,but we found that these patients seem to get a greater cardiovascular benefit from physical activity.”
Rates of both depression and anxiety have risen during the outbreak of flu,and heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the US.The study findings underline the important role of exercise in maintaining heart health and reducing stress,according to the researchers.
“Any amount of exercise is helpful,particularly for those with depression or anxiety,” Zureigat said.“Not only will physical activity help them feel better,but they will also significantly reduce their risk of cardiovascular disease.It can be hard to make the transition,but once achieved,physical activity allows those with these common chronic (慢性的) stress-related mental conditions to hit two birds with one stone.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了锻炼对患有抑郁症或焦虑症的人的心血管的益处。
4.Who can get the most cardiovascular benefit from regular exercise?
A.Someone with little brain capacity.
B.Someone with abnormal heart rates.

Getting older involves changes in all realms of life,from the physical to the mental,to the social,emotional,sexual,and more.Ideally,you'll have already been practicing healthy habits throughout your life.But even if you haven't,it's never too late to start taking active steps to maintain and even improve your health.Adopting even a few of the habits will start you on the right track.
1 According to Medline Plus,exercising regularly can improve your balance,help keep you mobile,improve your mood by reducing feelings of anxiety and depression,and contribute to better cognitive functioning. 2 Any exercise at all is better than none.CDC recommends 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity each week;you can further break this down into 30 active minutes a day for five days a week.
One article found that participants who reported higher levels of social activity were more likely to experience more positive moods,fewer negative feelings,and higher levels of physical activity.If you don't currently have an active social life,look for opportunities to reconnect with old friends or make new ones. 3
Regular checkups with your doctor are opportunities to catch problems early and treat them before they become bigger problems.If you are experiencing memory or mobility issues,or have been recently hospitalized,you may want to schedule an appointment with geriatricians (老年病学专家). 4 Following an initial consultation,they can help you create a care plan tailored to your needs.
It may seem like a no-brainer,but it bears repeating that you should always take any medication prescribed to you exactly as directed by your doctor.However,it's also worth doing a periodic medication review with your primary care doctor to discuss whether all of your prescriptions are still necessary. 5
A.It's also an important part of managing some chronic diseases.
B.They specialize in the care and treatment of older people.
C.Keep in mind that your pharmacist is another resource for information.
D.Seek out like-minded others that corresponds to an interest of yours.
