I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was fairly organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but fora phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled under her covers, sobbing.
Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up.
She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me. “Thanks.”
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
4. What made Kate angry one evening?
A. She couldn’t find her books. B. She saw the author’s shoes beneath her bed.
C. She got the news that her grandma was ill. D. She heard the author shouting loud.
5. Why did the author tidy up the room?

A. By analyzing causes. B. By following time order.
C. By describing a process. D. By showing differences.
7. What might be the best title for the story?

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, ‘Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!’ (一天晚上,战争爆发了。凯特走进房间。很快,我听到她尖叫道:‘把你的鞋子拿走!为什么放在我的床下!’)”可知,一天晚上,凯特看到作者放在她床下的鞋子,这让凯特很生气。故选B项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.

(我慢慢地收起铅笔,把书拿回去,铺好床,洗了袜子,扫了地,甚至把她那边的也打扫了)”可推知,作者看到凯特因为奶奶生病而难过,心中涌起同情,于是开始整理房间,因为作者想表达自己的关心。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was fairly organized.(我从来都不是很整洁,而我的室友凯特却很有条理)”可知,本段首先通过对比作者和凯特在整洁方面的不同来展开;接着“Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. (她的每件物品都有它的位置,但我的总是藏在某个地方)”进一步阐述了凯特和作者在物品放置上的不同;最后“Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. (随着时间的推移,凯特变得越来越整洁,而我却越来越乱)”总结了两人在这方面的变化。由此可知,本段主要是通过展示两者之间的差异来展开的。故选D项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,特别是根据最后一段“Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on. (凯特和我在接下来的一年里一直是室友。我们并不总是意见一致,但我们学会了共处的关键:让步、打扫和坚持)”可知,文章主要讲述了作者与室友凯特由关系紧张到和好的过程,以及作者从这个过程中学到的与人共处的关键。B项“Learning to Be Roommates (学会做室友)”最能概括文章主旨,最适合作文章标题。故选B项。

In today’s fast-paced world, people are constantly seeking ways to improve their well-being. Two prominent aspects that have gained significant attention are sports and travelling, both of which are deeply related to fitness and personal growth.
Sports play a crucial role in our lives. They are not just about winning or losing; they are about building strength. Whether it’s the powerlifting that requires immense physical might or the endurance needed in long-distance running, sports determine our physical capabilities. Different sports demand various skills and levels of fitness. For example, in team sports like soccer, players need to have both individual strength and the ability to work with teammates. This combination helps in developing a holistic sense of fitness.
Travelling, too, has a unique connection with fitness. When we travel, especially when we venture into the great outdoors during hikes or explore new cities on foot, we are engaging in physical activities that contribute to our well-being. It’s not just about seeing new places; it’s about the journey itself. The physical exertion during travel can enhance our strength and endurance. For instance, climbing a mountain during a trek can be a challenging yet rewarding fitness experience.
Moreover, we can apply the lessons learned from sports and travel to our daily lives. The discipline we acquire from regular sports training and the adaptability we gain from dealing with different travel situations can help us face other challenges with more confidence.

Teenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness. Exercise makes your body strong, and helps you to keep the right body weight. Sports scientist Dr. Helen Lopez offers the following advice to teenagers: “First, you need to find out your present level of fitness. Then you can design a programme that will help you become healthier. ”
Dr. Lopez points out that there are three levels of fitness that need a change of lifestyle. “Overweight” means that the person gets very little exercise and often has a serious weight problem. “Inactive” means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight. “Active” refers to people who take part in sports and other physical activities, but do not have a high fitness level.
According to Dr. Lopez, overweight teenagers should keep active to keep healthy. “Ride a bike, play volleyball or basketball for a while, and go for a twenty-minute walk each day. All these will help to burn calories.” Inactive teenagers should do similar activities, but add some bending and stretching exercises, such as push-ups and sit-ups, starting with twenty of each a day. “Inactive people can take a little more exercise than overweight people because their bodies are stronger,” said Dr. Lopez. The same principle applies to active teenagers.
Dr. Lopez suggests one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive exercise, together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities. “These are really important in order to prevent injuries,” Dr. Lopez said. Some weight-training and other body-strengthening exercises could also be planned in the programme in order to increase the person’s strength.
12. Which of the following statements is NOT the reason why physical exercise is important?
A. It can make the teenagers grow taller. B. It can help teenagers become healthier.
C. It can help to burn up calories. D. It can increase teenagers’ strength.
13. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Active people always have a high fitness level.
B. Overweight people always take more exercise.
C. Inactive teenagers are not seriously overweight.
D. Keeping fit means changing teenagers’ lifestyle.
14. In order to prevent injuries, you should do some ________ exercises.
A. walking B. stretching and bending C. riding D. weight-training
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Doing exercises B. Teenagers’ Fitness C. Different Lifestyles D. Overweight Teenagers
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章就如何运动来提高青少年的健康提出了一些建议。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Teenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness. Exercise makes your body strong, and helps you to keep the right body weight(青少年的健康现在是一个主要问题,体育锻炼对其非常重要。它能减轻压力,提高健康水平。运动使你的身体强壮,并帮助你保持正确的体重)”和第三段中的“All these will help to burn calories(这些有助于燃烧卡路里)”可知,帮助青少年长高并不是文章所提到的运动的好处。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的““Inactive” means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight(“不活跃”是指这个人不参加很多体育活动,但没有严重超重)”可知,不活跃的青少年没有严重超重。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Dr. Lopez suggests one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive exercise, together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities. “These are really important in order to prevent injuries,” Dr. Lopez said(洛佩兹建议每周花一个小时或更多的时间进行跑步和其他形式的高强度运动,同时每天花15分钟做伸展和弯曲运动。“为了防止受伤,这些是非常重要的,”洛佩兹博士说)”可知,伸展和弯曲运动有助于防止受伤。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段是文章的中心段。第一段第一句“Teenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness(青少年的健康现在是一个主要的问题,体育锻炼是非常重要的)”是中心句,下文就不同健康问题的青少年提出了一些具体的运动建议。因此文章都是围绕“青少年健康”展开的。故选B。

I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was fairly organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but fora phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled under her covers, sobbing.
Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
Slowly I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up.
She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me. “Thanks.”
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.

In today’s fast-paced world, people are constantly seeking ways to improve their well-being. Two prominent aspects that have gained significant attention are sports and travelling, both of which are deeply related to fitness and personal growth.
Sports play a crucial role in our lives. They are not just about winning or losing; they are about building strength. Whether it’s the powerlifting that requires immense physical might or the endurance needed in long-distance running, sports determine our physical capabilities. Different sports demand various skills and levels of fitness. For example, in team sports like soccer, players need to have both individual strength and the ability to work with teammates. This combination helps in developing a holistic sense of fitness.
Travelling, too, has a unique connection with fitness. When we travel, especially when we venture into the great outdoors during hikes or explore new cities on foot, we are engaging in physical activities that contribute to our well-being. It’s not just about seeing new places; it’s about the journey itself. The physical exertion during travel can enhance our strength and endurance. For instance, climbing a mountain during a trek can be a challenging yet rewarding fitness experience.
Moreover, we can apply the lessons learned from sports and travel to our daily lives. The discipline we acquire from regular sports training and the adaptability we gain from dealing with different travel situations can help us face other challenges with more confidence.
8. What are the two main elements discussed in relation to fitness in the text?
A. Sports and diet. B. Sports and travelling.
C. Travelling and reading. D. Diet and reading.
9. According to the passage, what does sports help to build?
A. Only teamwork skills. B. Just winning spirit.
C. Interest in art. D. Strength and determine physical capabilities.
10. How is travelling related to fitness according to the article?
A. By just relaxing. B. By eating local food.
C. Through physical activities during the journey. D. By sleeping in different places.
11. What can we apply from sports and travel to our daily lives?
A. Laziness and carelessness. B. Discipline and adaptability.
C. Fear and anxiety. D. Greed and envy.

Teenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness. Exercise makes your body strong, and helps you to keep the right body weight. Sports scientist Dr. Helen Lopez offers the following advice to teenagers: “First, you need to find out your present level of fitness. Then you can design a programme that will help you become healthier. ”
Dr. Lopez points out that there are three levels of fitness that need a change of lifestyle. “Overweight” means that the person gets very little exercise and often has a serious weight problem. “Inactive” means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight. “Active” refers to people who take part in sports and other physical activities, but do not have a high fitness level.
According to Dr. Lopez, overweight teenagers should keep active to keep healthy. “Ride a bike, play volleyball or basketball for a while, and go for a twenty-minute walk each day. All these will help to burn calories.” Inactive teenagers should do similar activities, but add some bending and stretching exercises, such as push-ups and sit-ups, starting with twenty of each a day. “Inactive people can take a little more exercise than overweight people because their bodies are stronger,” said Dr. Lopez. The same principle applies to active teenagers.
Dr. Lopez suggests one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive exercise, together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities. “These are really important in order to prevent injuries,” Dr. Lopez said. Some weight-training and other body-strengthening exercises could also be planned in the programme in order to increase the person’s strength.
12. Which of the following statements is NOT the reason why physical exercise is important?
A. It can make the teenagers grow taller. B. It can help teenagers become healthier.
C. It can help to burn up calories. D. It can increase teenagers’ strength.
13. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Active people always have a high fitness level.
B. Overweight people always take more exercise.
C. Inactive teenagers are not seriously overweight.
D. Keeping fit means changing teenagers’ lifestyle.
14. In order to prevent injuries, you should do some ________ exercises.
A. walking B. stretching and bending C. riding D. weight-training
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Doing exercises B. Teenagers’ Fitness C. Different Lifestyles D. Overweight Teenagers
