You might enjoy running, right? Well, then you’ re already on the right track to becoming a trail runner（越野跑选手）. It is not so hard as you think. All you need to do is just taking your runs off the pavement（人行道）and explore some hilly or mountainous trails. Trail running has gained popularity in recent years and offers a great way to connect with nature while getting a challenging workout. Not adventurous enough for you? How about trying rock climbing? Climbers climb walls or natural rock formations, using their strength and problem-solving skills. There’s no age limit for this sport, and it can be a great way to build confidence and overcome fears. For example, Sarah, a young girl from a small town, started rock climbing at the age of 12 and has since fallen in love with the sport. She says. “Every time I reach the top of a climb, I feel a sense of success that’s hard to describe.” Some people take their adventures to even greater heights by trying wingsuit flying. In this extreme sport, participants（参与者）wear a special suit that allows them to fly through the air like a bird. It requires a lot of training and courage, as there are significant risks involved. However, for those who show interest in it, there is no feeling like flying freely. It seems that people are always coming up with new and exciting ways to challenge themselves and experience the excitement of adventure. Whether it’s paragliding, whitewater rafting, or even urban exploration, there’s something out there for everyone. 1．What can we learn from the passage about trail running? A．It’s too annoying.

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. 1．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. 2．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. 3．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. 4．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. （24-25高一上·江苏徐州·期中）Everyone has their own way to “recharge” their sense of well-being — something that makes them feel good physically, emotionally, and spiritually even if they aren’t consciously aware of it. Personally, I know that few things can improve my day as quickly as a walk around the block or even just getting up from my desk and doing some push-ups. A hike through the woods is ideal when I can make it happen. But that’s me. It’s not simply that I enjoy these activities but also that they make me feel better and clear my mind. Mental health and physical health are closely connected. No kidding — what’s good for the body is often good for the mind. Knowing that what you can do physically has this effect for you will change your day and your life. Physical activity has many mental health benefits. These have been published in the journal Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans and include improved brain health and cognitive function — the ability to think, if you will, a reduced risk of tension and worry, improved sleep and overall quality of life. Although not a cure for all, increasing physical activity directly contributes to improved mental health and better overall health and well-being. Learning how to manage stress and getting screened for depression are simply good prevention practices in daily life. Awareness is especially important at this time of year, when disruptions to healthy habits and choices can be more likely and more annoying. Shorter days and colder temperatures have a way of breaking up the normal life — as do the holidays, with both their joys and their stresses. When the rich sunshine and clear skies of temperate(温和的) months give way to terrible weather, less daylight, and festive gatherings, it may happen unconsciously or seem natural to be less physically active. However, that tendency is just why it’s so important that we are ever more mindful of our physical and emotional health and how we can maintain both at this time of year. 1．What is the author’s regular way of “recharging” his well-being? A．Working out in a gym. B．Staying and doing nothing. C．Hiking in the woods. D．Slight exercise. 2．What can we learn from paragraph 3? A．The importance of good sleep. B．The ways to improve brain health. C．The mental health benefits of physical activity. D．The bond between mental health and physical health. 3．What does the underlined word “disruption” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Achievement. B．Destruction. C．Advantage. D．Development. 4．Why does the author mention shorter days, colder temperatures and festivals? A．To persuade us to enjoy our current lives. B．To show useful advice on keeping healthy. C．To describe unexpected things in our lives. D．To remind us to care about well-being anytime. （24-25高一上·河南南阳·阶段练习）Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your choice of sport might have great influence on the environment. Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses (球场) in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortages in some local areas. There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes, and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep better and have better weight control. Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it's free. 1．Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of? A．Cycling around a lake. B．Motor racing in the desert. C．Playing basketball in a gym. D．Swimming in a sports center. 2．What do we know about golf from the passage? A．It is popular in Portugal and Spain. B．It causes water shortages around the world. C．It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes. D．It needs water and electricity to keep its courses in good condition. 3．What is the main reason why the author uses power walking as an example? A．Because it is an outdoor sport. B．Because it improves our health. C．Because it uses fewer resources. D．Because it is recommended by experts. 4．What’s the author's purpose in writing the passage? A．To show us the function of major sports. B．To encourage us to go in for green sports. C．To discuss the major influence of popular sports. D．To introduce different types of environment-friendly sports. （24-25高一上·广东清远·期中）Are you preparing for a big test? If so, you may want to play some basketball in between hitting the books. Doctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development. Judy Cameron, a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University, studies brain development. According to her research, it seems that exercise can make blood vessels (血管) , including those in the brain, stronger and more fully developed. Dr Cameron claims this allows people who exercise to concentrate better. She says, “While we already know that exercise is good for the heart, exercise can really cause physical changes in the brain.” The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active. With babies, even a little movement can show big results. Older people can beef up their brain as well. Scientists from 11 universities studied a group of seniors aged from 70 to 79. Their study showed a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very difficult, but it does have to increase the heart rate. Also, just like the motion for babies, exercise for seniors should involve some complexity (复杂). Learning some new skills or motions, such as with yoga or Tai Ji, helps open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time. For most people, any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful. The main goal is to increase the brain’s flow of blood. And your brain can benefit from as little as three hours of exercise a week. 1．What do we know from paragraph 1? A．The brain needs special mental exercise. B．The more exercise, the bigger the brain. C．Exercise helps the brain develop better. D．Exercise makes us stronger and happier. 2．What does the underlined “beef up” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Organise. B．Improve. C．Relax. D．Rescue. 3．How can 3 hours of proper exercise a week help? A．Lengthen the age from 70 to 79. B．Increase the heart rate of babies. C．Benefit seniors’ short-term memory. D．Open up memory paths for students. 4．What is the purpose of the text? A．To offer advice on how to do exercise. B．To introduce ways to change the brain. C．To give tips on how to raise test scores. D．To encourage exercise for brain benefit. （24-25高一上·广东茂名·期中）Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem. Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact with the ground at all times. It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass. Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says. According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr Norberg says. According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice. 1．Why are race walkers conditioned athletes? A．They must run long distances. B．They have to follow special rules. C．They are qualified for the marathon. D．They are good at swinging their legs. 2．What advantage does race walking have over running? A．It’s less challenging physically. B．It’s more popular at the Olympics. C．It’s more effective in body building. D．It’s less likely to cause knee injuries. 3．What is Dr Norberg’s suggestion for someone trying race walking? A．Getting experts’ opinions. B．Having a medical checkup. C．Hiring an experienced coach. D．Doing regular exercises. 4．Which word best describes the author’s attitude to race walking? A．Skeptical(怀疑). B．Favorable(赞成). C．Tolerant(宽容). D．Objective(客观). （24-25高一上·甘肃兰州·阶段练习）Millions of people around the world, including nearly 60% of Americans, Australians and Europeans, participate in sports. Lack of physical activity is estimated to cause more than 5 million early deaths a year. To reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes (糖尿病), cancer and a number of other diseases, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends adults and older people engage in physical activity for at least 150 minutes a week. Adults participating in a high overall level of sports and exercise are at 34% lower risk of death than those who never or rarely engage in such activities. But does it make a difference which physical activities we do? To strengthen the evidence on health benefits of six common sport disciplines—aerobics (有氧运动), cycling, football, racquet (球拍) sports, running and swimming --we recently analyzed data from 80,306 British adults. The study found 27%, 15%, 47% and 28% reduced risk of death for participants in aerobics, cycling, racquet sports and swimming. Although we observed reductions in the risk of death associated with football and running (18% and 13%) in our study sample, the data did not allow us to draw conclusions about these effects across the whole population. These associations should not be misunderstood as “no association” or “evidence of no effect”. We simply do not know whether the observed effects in the sample occurred by chance alone or reflect the true effects in the population. It may take decades until we reach definite conclusions about health outcomes of all types of sports. Should you in the meantime sit in front of the TV and wait for researchers to announce the final results? No! Follow your preferences and select an affordable and easily accessible sporting activity you enjoy doing, while trying to reduce the risk of injury. 1．How long should an adult exercise every day according to WHO? A．At least 21 minutes. B．At least 25 minutes. C．At least 30 minutes. D．At least 35 minutes. 2．What did the study find according to Paragraphs 3 and 4? A．Football and running had no effect. B．Running is the best form of exercise. C．Racquet sports are the most effective in reducing the risk of death. D．Aerobics is more popular than running. 3．What does the author advise us to do in the end? A．Participate in racquet sports. B．Choose whatever sport you like. C．Participate in running and swimming. D．Choose whatever sport that’s beneficial. 4．What would be the best title for the text? A．The Benefits of Playing Sports B．Different People, Different Sports C．Which Sports Are Best for Health? D．Why Do People Engage in Sports? 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit 2 Be Sporty,Be Healthy 单元话题阅读理解练习 （24-25高一上·陕西宝鸡·期中）From local parks in America to the sandy beaches of Brazil, soccer is played by millions of children across the world.

In this extreme sport, participants（参与者）wear a special suit that allows them to fly through the air like a bird. It requires a lot of training and courage, as there are significant risks involved. （有些人尝试翼装飞行，将他们的冒险带到更高的高度。在这项极限运动中，参与者穿着一件特殊的衣服，可以像鸟一样在空中飞行。这需要大量的训练和勇气，因为有很大的风险。）”可知，本段描述翼装飞行需要训练和勇气。it指代wingsuit flying翼装飞行。故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段“It seems that people are always coming up with new and exciting ways to challenge themselves and experience the excitement of adventure. Whether it’s paragliding, whitewater rafting, or even urban exploration, there’s something out there for everyone.（似乎人们总是想出新的和令人兴奋的方式来挑战自己，体验冒险的兴奋。无论是滑翔伞、激流漂流，甚至是城市探险，都有适合每个人的东西。）”可知，人们尝试这些极限运动为了寻找快乐和挑战自己。故选C。 （24-25高一上·广东揭阳·期中）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. 1．What are the two main elements discussed in relation to fitness in the text?

Personally, I know that few things can improve my day as quickly as a walk around the block or even just getting up from my desk and doing some push-ups. A hike through the woods is ideal when I can make it happen. But that’s me. It’s not simply that I enjoy these activities but also that they make me feel better and clear my mind. Mental health and physical health are closely connected. No kidding — what’s good for the body is often good for the mind. Knowing that what you can do physically has this effect for you will change your day and your life. Physical activity has many mental health benefits. These have been published in the journal Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans and include improved brain health and cognitive function — the ability to think, if you will, a reduced risk of tension and worry, improved sleep and overall quality of life. Although not a cure for all, increasing physical activity directly contributes to improved mental health and better overall health and well-being. Learning how to manage stress and getting screened for depression are simply good prevention practices in daily life. Awareness is especially important at this time of year, when disruptions to healthy habits and choices can be more likely and more annoying. Shorter days and colder temperatures have a way of breaking up the normal life — as do the holidays, with both their joys and their stresses. When the rich sunshine and clear skies of temperate(温和的) months give way to terrible weather, less daylight, and festive gatherings, it may happen unconsciously or seem natural to be less physically active. However, that tendency is just why it’s so important that we are ever more mindful of our physical and emotional health and how we can maintain both at this time of year. 1．What is the author’s regular way of “recharging” his well-being? A．Working out in a gym. B．Staying and doing nothing. C．Hiking in the woods. D．Slight exercise. 2．What can we learn from paragraph 3? A．The importance of good sleep. B．The ways to improve brain health. C．The mental health benefits of physical activity. D．The bond between mental health and physical health. 3．What does the underlined word “disruption” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Achievement. B．Destruction. C．Advantage. D．Development. 4．Why does the author mention shorter days, colder temperatures and festivals? A．To persuade us to enjoy our current lives. B．To show useful advice on keeping healthy. C．To describe unexpected things in our lives. D．To remind us to care about well-being anytime. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了体育活动对身心健康的作用。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“Everyone has their own way to “recharge” their sense of well-being — something that makes them feel good physically, emotionally, and spiritually even if they aren’t consciously aware of it. Personally, I know that few things can improve my day as quickly as a walk around the block or even just getting up from my desk and doing some push-ups.(每个人都有自己的方式来“充电”他们的幸福感——一些让他们在身体上、情感上和精神上感觉良好的事情，即使他们并没有意识到这一点。对我来说，没有什么事情能像绕街区走一圈或甚至只是从桌前站起来做几个俯卧撑那样迅速改善我的一天)”可知，作者通常的“充电”方式是做一些轻微的运动。故选D项。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段的内容“Physical activity has many mental health benefits. These have been published in the journal Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans and include improved brain health and cognitive function — the ability to think, if you will, a reduced risk of tension and worry, improved sleep and overall quality of life. Although not a cure for all, increasing physical activity directly contributes to improved mental health and better overall health and well-being.(体育活动对心理健康有很多好处。这些建议发表在《美国人体育活动指南》杂志上，包括改善大脑健康和认知功能——思考能力，如果你愿意的话，减少紧张和担忧的风险，改善睡眠和整体生活质量。虽然不能包治百病，但增加体育活动直接有助于改善心理健康和更好的整体健康和福祉)”可知，体育活动对心理健康的好处。故选C项。 3．词句猜测题。根据划线单词后面的to healthy habits和句末的more annoying可知，能够让人讨厌、恼火的肯定是对健康习惯的破坏。所以，划线单词disruption的意义为“破坏、妨碍”，与destruction意义一致。故选B项。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Shorter days and colder temperatures have a way of breaking up the normal life — as do the holidays, with both their joys and their stresses. When the rich sunshine and clear skies of temperate(温和的) months give way to terrible weather, less daylight, and festive gatherings, it may happen unconsciously or seem natural to be less physically active. However, that tendency is just why it’s so important that we are ever more mindful of our physical and emotional health and how we can maintain both at this time of year.(白天变短、气温变冷会破坏正常的生活——就像假期一样，既有欢乐，也有压力。当温和月份的充足阳光和晴朗天空被恶劣天气、日照减少和节日聚会所取代时，人们可能会无意识地减少体力活动，或者看起来很自然。然而，这种趋势正是为什么我们越来越注意自己的身心健康以及如何在一年中的这个时候保持身心健康如此重要的原因。)”可知，白天变短、气温变冷和假期会破坏正常的生活，人们可能会无意识地减少体力活动，越是这个时候，我们越应该注意自己的身心健康。所以作者提到白天变短、气温变冷和节日是为了提醒我们在任何时候都要关注健康。故选D项。 （24-25高一上·河南南阳·阶段练习）Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your choice of sport might have great influence on the environment. Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses (球场) in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortages in some local areas. There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes, and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep better and have better weight control. Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it's free. 1．Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of? A．Cycling around a lake. B．Motor racing in the desert. C．Playing basketball in a gym. D．Swimming in a sports center. 2．What do we know about golf from the passage? A．It is popular in Portugal and Spain. B．It causes water shortages around the world. C．It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes. D．It needs water and electricity to keep its courses in good condition. 3．What is the main reason why the author uses power walking as an example? A．Because it is an outdoor sport. B．Because it improves our health. C．Because it uses fewer resources. D．Because it is recommended by experts. 4．What’s the author's purpose in writing the passage? A．To show us the function of major sports. B．To encourage us to go in for green sports. C．To discuss the major influence of popular sports. D．To introduce different types of environment-friendly sports. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．C 4．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章通过对比不同类型的运动，探讨了运动对环境的影响，并提倡选择更加环保的运动方式，如竞走，并强调了其优势。 1．推断判断题。根据文章第四段“Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials.(无论你从事什么运动，你都可以通过使用环保设备和购买由回收材料制成的产品来使其更环保。)”以及“Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces.There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it's free.(绿色健身房的会员在户外、乡村或其他开放空间进行体育运动。对您的入会没有特殊要求。最重要的是，它是免费的。)”可知，绿色健身房的成员在户外、乡村或其他开放空间进行运动，因此作者很可能支持户外、环保的运动方式。选项A（环湖骑自行车）符合作者的理念。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses in good condition.(正如你所知，高尔夫不仅占用了大量农村土地，还耗费了大量的水资源。此外，为了保持高尔夫球场状况良好，还需要使用各种化学物质和大量能源。)”可知，高尔夫不仅需要大片乡村地区，还需要大量水资源，同时还需要使用各种化学物质和大量能源来保持球场状况良好。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes, and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse.(有许多环保运动。竞走是你今天可以练习的其中之一。除了一双好鞋，你不需要任何特殊的装备，也不必担心资源和钱包。)”可知，竞走是一项环保运动，不需要特殊设备，只需一双好鞋，且不用担心资源和花费问题。因此，作者使用竞走作为例子的主要原因是它使用的资源较少，符合环保理念。故选C。 4．推理判断题。文章整体上在探讨运动对环境的影响，并提倡选择更加环保的运动方式。最后一段提到“Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be ‘green gyms’.(无论你从事什么运动，你都可以通过使用环保设备和购买由回收材料制成的产品来使其更环保。但最终目标应该是“绿色健身房”。)”，可以看出作者在鼓励大家参加绿色运动。故选B。 （24-25高一上·广东清远·期中）Are you preparing for a big test? If so, you may want to play some basketball in between hitting the books. Doctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development. Judy Cameron, a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University, studies brain development. According to her research, it seems that exercise can make blood vessels (血管) , including those in the brain, stronger and more fully developed. Dr Cameron claims this allows people who exercise to concentrate better. She says, “While we already know that exercise is good for the heart, exercise can really cause physical changes in the brain.” The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active. With babies, even a little movement can show big results. Older people can beef up their brain as well. Scientists from 11 universities studied a group of seniors aged from 70 to 79. Their study showed a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very difficult, but it does have to increase the heart rate. Also, just like the motion for babies, exercise for seniors should involve some complexity (复杂). Learning some new skills or motions, such as with yoga or Tai Ji, helps open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time. For most people, any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful. The main goal is to increase the brain’s flow of blood. And your brain can benefit from as little as three hours of exercise a week. 1．What do we know from paragraph 1? A．The brain needs special mental exercise. B．The more exercise, the bigger the brain. C．Exercise helps the brain develop better. D．Exercise makes us stronger and happier. 2．What does the underlined “beef up” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Organise. B．Improve. C．Relax. D．Rescue. 3．How can 3 hours of proper exercise a week help? A．Lengthen the age from 70 to 79. B．Increase the heart rate of babies. C．Benefit seniors’ short-term memory. D．Open up memory paths for students. 4．What is the purpose of the text? A．To offer advice on how to do exercise. B．To introduce ways to change the brain. C．To give tips on how to raise test scores. D．To encourage exercise for brain benefit. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是通过适当的运动能够促进大脑功能的发育。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Doctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development.(医生们开始发现越来越多的信息表明运动和大脑发育之间存在联系。)”可知，医生发现运动与大脑发育之间存在着联系，结合下文的“Judy Cameron, a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University, studies brain development. According to her research, it seems that exercise can make blood vessels (血管) , including those in the brain, stronger and more fully developed. Dr Cameron claims this allows people who exercise to concentrate better.(俄勒冈健康与科学大学的科学家Judy Cameron研究大脑发育。根据她的研究，运动似乎可以使血管，包括大脑中的血管，更强壮，更充分地发育。)”可知，运动可以使包括大脑中的血管在内的血管能更充分地发育，由此可知，从第一段中我们可以了解到的是运动有助于大脑更好地发育。故选C项。 2．词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active.(运动对大脑发育的影响甚至可以在婴儿身上看到。那些需要大量运动和体力活动的婴儿比那些体力活动较少的婴儿表现出更大的大脑发育。)”可知，运动对大脑发育的影响甚至可以在婴儿身上看到，根据划线短语前的“Older people can”与其后的“their brain as well.”可知，此处讲述的应是运动老人的大脑也有影响，结合下文中的“Scientists from 11 universities studied a group of seniors aged from 70 to 79. Their study showed a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week.(来自11所大学的科学家对一组年龄在70岁至79岁之间的老年人进行了研究。他们的研究表明，每周只运动三小时，短期记忆力就会提高40%。)”可知，研究发现，每周只运动三小时，年龄在70岁至79岁之间的老年人的短期记忆力就会提高40%，由此可知，运动有助于增强老人的大脑，所以划线短语的意思与“增强”意义相近。故选B项。 3．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Scientists from 11 universities studied a group of seniors aged from 70 to 79. Their study showed a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week.(来自11所大学的科学家对一组年龄在70岁至79岁之间的老年人进行了研究。他们的研究表明，每周只运动三小时，短期记忆力就会提高40%。)”可知，对年龄在70岁至79岁之间的老年人的研究表明，每周只运动三个小时，短期记忆就会提高40%，由此可知，运动有利于老年人的短期记忆。故选C项。 4．推理判断题。根据尾段中的“For most people, any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful. The main goal is to increase the brain’s flow of blood. And your brain can benefit from as little as three hours of exercise a week.(对大多数人来说，任何增加心率的体育活动都是有益的。主要目标是增加大脑的血液流动。你的大脑可以从每周3小时的运动中受益。)”可知，任何增加心率的体育活动都是有益的，大脑可以从每周3小时的运动中受益，由此可知，本文主要介绍的是通过适当的体育活动能够促进大脑功能的发育，所以本文的目的是鼓励人们为了大脑健康而进行运动。故选D项。 （24-25高一上·广东茂名·期中）Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem. Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact with the ground at all times. It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass. Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says. According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr Norberg says. According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice. 1．Why are race walkers conditioned athletes? A．They must run long distances. B．They have to follow special rules. C．They are qualified for the marathon. D．They are good at swinging their legs. 2．What advantage does race walking have over running? A．It’s less challenging physically. B．It’s more popular at the Olympics. C．It’s more effective in body building. D．It’s less likely to cause knee injuries. 3．What is Dr Norberg’s suggestion for someone trying race walking? A．Getting experts’ opinions. B．Having a medical checkup. C．Hiring an experienced coach. D．Doing regular exercises. 4．Which word best describes the author’s attitude to race walking? A．Skeptical(怀疑). B．Favorable(赞成). C．Tolerant(宽容). D．Objective(客观). 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．A 4．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了竞走相比跑步有诸多的优势，但是之前受过伤的人，要想从事这样运动要谨慎，最好咨询专家的建议。 1．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact with the ground at all times.(但是，竞走运动的规则要求运动员在行走过程中大部分时间保持膝盖伸直，并且一只脚必须始终接触地面)”可知，竞走运动员之所以有条件要求是因为运动员需要遵守某些特殊的运动规则。故选B项。 2．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers.(因此，她说，一些与跑步有关的损伤，比如跑步者的膝盖，在竞走运动员中并不常见)”可知，竞走与跑步相比，它的优势是不太可能导致膝盖受伤。故选D项。 3．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says.(事实上，任何想要尝试竞走的人最好先咨询教练或有经验的竞走运动员来学习正确的技术，她说)”可知，Dr Norberg建议想尝试竞走的人征询专家的建议。故选A项。 4．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem.(研究表明，竞走与跑步共享许多健身益处，同时很可能导致更少的伤害。然而，它也有自己的问题)”可知，作者既提及了竞走的优势，也指出了需要注意的问题，可以判断出作者对于竞走的态度是客观的。故选D项。 （24-25高一上·甘肃兰州·阶段练习）Millions of people around the world, including nearly 60% of Americans, Australians and Europeans, participate in sports. Lack of physical activity is estimated to cause more than 5 million early deaths a year. To reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes (糖尿病), cancer and a number of other diseases, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends adults and older people engage in physical activity for at least 150 minutes a week. Adults participating in a high overall level of sports and exercise are at 34% lower risk of death than those who never or rarely engage in such activities. But does it make a difference which physical activities we do? To strengthen the evidence on health benefits of six common sport disciplines—aerobics (有氧运动), cycling, football, racquet (球拍) sports, running and swimming --we recently analyzed data from 80,306 British adults. The study found 27%, 15%, 47% and 28% reduced risk of death for participants in aerobics, cycling, racquet sports and swimming. Although we observed reductions in the risk of death associated with football and running (18% and 13%) in our study sample, the data did not allow us to draw conclusions about these effects across the whole population. These associations should not be misunderstood as “no association” or “evidence of no effect”. We simply do not know whether the observed effects in the sample occurred by chance alone or reflect the true effects in the population. It may take decades until we reach definite conclusions about health outcomes of all types of sports. Should you in the meantime sit in front of the TV and wait for researchers to announce the final results? No! Follow your preferences and select an affordable and easily accessible sporting activity you enjoy doing, while trying to reduce the risk of injury. 1．How long should an adult exercise every day according to WHO? A．At least 21 minutes. B．At least 25 minutes. C．At least 30 minutes. D．At least 35 minutes. 2．What did the study find according to Paragraphs 3 and 4? A．Football and running had no effect. B．Running is the best form of exercise. C．Racquet sports are the most effective in reducing the risk of death. D．Aerobics is more popular than running. 3．What does the author advise us to do in the end? A．Participate in racquet sports. B．Choose whatever sport you like. C．Participate in running and swimming. D．Choose whatever sport that’s beneficial. 4．What would be the best title for the text? A．The Benefits of Playing Sports B．Different People, Different Sports C．Which Sports Are Best for Health? D．Why Do People Engage in Sports? 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了不同体育活动对健康的影响及世界卫生组织的运动建议。 1．推理判断题。根据第二段“Lack of physical activity is estimated to cause more than 5 million early deaths a year. To reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer and a number of other diseases, the World Health Organization recommends adults and older people engage in physical activity for at least 150 minutes a week. (缺乏身体活动估计每年导致超过 500 万例过早死亡。为降低心脏病、2 型糖尿病、癌症和许多其他疾病的风险，世界卫生组织建议成年人和老年人每周至少进行 150 分钟的身体活动)”可知，世界卫生组织建议成年人和老年人每周至少进行 150 分钟的身体活动，计算得出每天至少需要运动150分钟 / 7天 ≈21分钟。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据第四段“The study found 27%, 15%, 47% and 28% reduced risk of death for participants in aerobics, cycling, racquet sports and swimming. (研究发现，参与有氧运动、骑自行车、球拍类运动和游泳的人死亡风险分别降低了 27%、15%、47% 和 28%)”可知，球拍运动在降低死亡风险方面最为有效。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Follow your preferences and select an affordable and easily accessible sporting activity you enjoy doing, while trying to reduce the risk of injury. (遵循你的喜好，选择一项你喜欢的、负担得起且容易参与的体育活动，同时努力降低受伤风险)”可知，作者建议选择你喜欢的运动并且降低受伤风险。故选B。 4．主旨大意题。根据全文以及文中第二段“Adults participating in a high overall level of sports and exercise are at 34% lower risk of death than those who never or rarely engage in such activities. (参与高水平体育运动和锻炼的成年人比那些从不或很少参与此类活动的人死亡风险低 34%)”第四段“To strengthen the evidence on health benefits of six common sport disciplines—aerobics, cycling, football, racquet sports, running and swimming --we recently analyzed data from 80,306 British adults. The study found 27%, 15%, 47% and 28% reduced risk of death for participants in aerobics, cycling, racquet sports and swimming. (为了强化六种常见体育项目 —— 有氧运动、骑自行车、足球、球拍类运动、跑步和游泳 —— 对健康益处的证据，我们最近分析了 80306 名英国成年人的数据。研究发现，参与有氧运动、骑自行车、球拍类运动和游泳的人死亡风险分别降低了 27%、15%、47% 和 28%)”可知，文章主要探讨了哪些运动对健康有益和具体的数据分析。故选C。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
