阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Everyone has unique needs and preferences, and individual sleep requirements are no different. However, the amount of sleep you need per night is mainly determined by your age. Official recommendations for the length of a person’s sleep are broken down by age group:
Older adults (65+): 7–8 hours
Adults (18–64 years): 7–9 hours
Teenagers (14–17 years): 8–10 hours
School children (6–13 years): 9–11 hours
Preschoolers (3–5 years): 10–13 hours (including naps)
Toddlers (1–2 years): 11–14 hours (including naps)
Infants (4–12 months): 12–15 hours (including naps)
Newborns (0–3 months): 14–17 hours
However, some people might need more or less sleep than what is generally recommended, depending on the following factors.
Genetic makeup
Your genetics are an important factor in how many hours of sleep you need per night.
For example, those with one specific genetic mutation (基因突变) need only around 6 hours, whereas people without such particular mutation require about 8 hours, on average.
Sleep quality
The quality of your sleep can also affect how much you need.
If your sleep quality is poor, you may find that you still feel tired after getting what should be considered enough.
Therefore, it’s not only important to focus on sleeping long enough but also on sleeping well enough. If you often feel like you aren’t sleeping well or are extremely tired and don’t know why, it’s a good idea to check in with your healthcare provider.
21. What is the main reason for the amount of sleep we need per night?
A. Sleep quality. B. Genetics. C. Our eating habits. D. Our age.
22. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. All school children need to sleep for 9 to 11 hours.
B. Any kind of genetic mutation can lead to a 6-hour sleep pattern.
C. You should turn to your healthcare provider as long as you feel tired.
D. Poor sleep quality may lead to tiredness though you’ve got enough sleep.
23. Where does this passage most probably come from?
A. A health magazine. B. A travel brochure.
C. A fashion website. D. A sports newspaper.
B
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.
The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a fight against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the fight against my own body and mind. A test of wills (毅力)!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line my shoe laces (鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: “GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!” By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again. By mile 21, I was starving! As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels (世俗标签), I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.
24. A month before the marathon, the author ______.
A. was well trained B. lost hope C. felt frightened D. made up his mind to run
25. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year?
A. To appreciate the support of his teacher.
B. To show he was not good at sports.
C. To tell the readers a funny story.
D. To share a sweet memory.
26. How was the author’s first marathon?
A. He succeeded. B. He gave up halfway.
C. He got the first prize. D. He walked to the end.
27. What does the story mainly tell us?
A. Well begun is half done. B. Failure is the mother of success.
C. A winner is one with a great effort of will. D. One is never too old to learn.
C
Travel is one of the most exciting experiences that a human being can have. Imagine how Italian traveller Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.
And how unbelievable must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia? His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard, leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have travelled all over the world, and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States. Of course, they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV, and the White House, and all the other famous sights. But none of that would compare to the thrill of looking out of the cabin window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation, it’s also educational. We may not know that we are getting education, but we still are.
We’re learning every day: new words in a new language, new people, and new ways of life. But this learning takes place in the school of the world, not in the classroom. One of the lessons we learn is undoubtedly a moral one. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way. The British politician Benjamin Disraeli summed this up well when he said, “Travel teaches toleration.”
28. The author uses Marco Polo and Zhang Qian as examples to ______.
A. explain how the Silk Road was founded
B. describe important cultural exchanges in history
C. show how the way people travel has changed
D. present travel as an amazing experience
29. By saying “the best travel is when it’s for the first time”, the author means that ______.
A. one’s first trip is usually the most challenging
B. people are eager to satisfy their curiosity
C. there is always much to learn on one’s first trip
D. people make better preparations for their first trip
30. The underlined word “recreation”in Paragraph 4 probably means “______”.
A. learning B. knowledge C. fun D. risk
31. According to the last two paragraphs, the author believes that ______.
A a foreign journey may raise people’s cultural understanding
B. travelling improves people’s confidence in their lifestyle
C travelling should be included in formal education
D. there is more to learn from adventures than in classrooms
D
For better eyesight (视力), doctors advise limiting (限制) the hours of screen time and encourage having enough eye resting time.
However, another study shows that sitting in front of computer or TV screens for long hours is not the only reason for myopia (近视). An Australian research team studied young children in Sydney and Singapore to find the reasons for myopia. The research team found that there were less children who had myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore, even though they spent more time in front of computer and TV screens. The major finding is that children in Sydney spend longer hours on outdoor sports than those in Singapore.
Indoor and outdoor sports both make the eyes pay attention to more distant (远处的) objects, which stops the eyes from changing original shape. But outdoor sports may be better than indoor sports for myopia. Because natural light is good for eye growth and vitamin (维他命) D from the sunlight might be useful to it. Many doctors suggest that every child get its first eye test when he/she is about two and half years old, and even if his/her sight seems good enough. It is necessary for myopic(近视的) children to wear glasses to stop headaches, trouble reading and so on. It is also important that schools invite doctors to test their students’ eyes.
If that is not possible, school teachers should at least encourage parents and children to have regular eye examination and wear glasses. And parents should remember not only to limit the total screen time for their children, but also to encourage them to spend time outdoors.
32. What did the Australian research team study for?
A. To find the reasons for myopia.
B. To find the ways to treat myopia.
C. To learn to choose right glasses.
D. To improve children’s eyesight.
33. Why are there fewer children with myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore?
A. Because the children in Sydney watch TV less.
B. Because the children in Sydney have more eye resting time.
C. Because the children in Sydney use computer less.
D. Because the children in Sydney do more outdoor sports.
34. What conclusion can we draw from the passage?
A. Sydney children don’t study hard.
B. Singapore children do few exercise.
C. Room light does harm to children’s eyes.
D. Outdoors activities do more good to eyes.
35. Which of the following is true?
A. Children should have eye tests as soon as they reach school age.
B. Looking more at distant objects can help the eyes keep their original shape.
C. Doing outdoor sports with no glasses is good for myopic children.
D. Children should limit their time in the sun to protect their eyes.

Although running indoors on a treadmill (跑步机) is comfortable, many runners prefer to train outdoors because it allows them to enjoy nature. ____36____ But running outdoors presents some challenges. Be careful of the following things.
_____37_____
Many runners make the mistake of setting their speeds inaccurately (不准确地) when running outdoors. This is especially true for those who are used to running indoors. How can you learn your running level? Regularly choose different speeds and learn about your feelings and performance. How do you feel about jogging, racing and sprinting (短跑) speeds? Also, train to alternate (交替) these speeds to make the routine more challenging.
Adapt to the weather.
Remember that running outdoors is different from running indoors on a treadmill. In the winter, you may run more on the treadmill. Treadmills are a soft surface. When the winter is over and you want to run outdoors again, you need to give your body enough time to get used to the outdoors again. _____38_____
Wear the right shoes.
Avoid wearing bad running shoes with worn-out material. If the material is already worn out, it can no longer provide you with the support your feet need for running. _____39_____ Also, make sure you choose the right shoes—shoes designed specifically for the challenges of running.
Stay patient and work for results.
However hard you train, you won’t see results overnight. You need to be patient. _____40_____ Take your time to make progress and expect challenges.
A. Break your old habit.
B. Know your speed.
C. A pair of good shoes can do wonders.
D. Replace old running shoes immediately.
E. A change of scenery can also improve their feeling.
F. Don’t expect your desired results to happen quickly.
G. Give your body time to get used to different surfaces.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My name is Daniel. I was the new boy in the class. There were 33 students in my new class, and most people weren’t very interested in a shy new boy.But a popular boy named Roy was kind to me. He often invited me to join his particular group and we became good friends. We trusted each other and we could talk about personal matters.
Five years later, Roy and I were still in the same class. But just a year ago Roy’s father was knocked over by a car. He died a few days later. The family had difficulty with economy. Roy changed completely. He started losing friends, including me.
About three months ago, a group of us were playing football together after school. Having left something in the classroom, I went inside to get it and found Roy going through the pockets of people’s coats. In his hand he had a wallet and I knew it wasn’t his. Roy went bright red. “I will put it back right now,” he said, and he did so. I turned round and walked out without saying a word. I really hoped that Roy would explain why he had been stealing, but instead he started avoiding me.
Last week, our school had a big party in order to raise money for a charity and we made about £500. But to our surprise, the next morning, we were told that the money had been stolen. This morning I decided to ask Roy about the stealing so I went to see him. Roy was out. I put his jacket on and put my hands in the pockets. I could feel a lot of notes (纸币) and I pulled them out. It looked as if there were about £500 there. I was so surprised that I just stood there, holding the notes in my hand. And that moment, Roy walked in.
Seeing me standing there with money in my hand, Roy felt panicked (恐慌的).

We went to the head teacher Mrs Smith, together.

A
Everyone has unique needs and preferences, and individual sleep requirements are no different. However, the amount of sleep you need per night is mainly determined by your age. Official recommendations for the length of a person’s sleep are broken down by age group:
Older adults (65+): 7–8 hours
Adults (18–64 years): 7–9 hours
Teenagers (14–17 years): 8–10 hours
School children (6–13 years): 9–11 hours
Preschoolers (3–5 years): 10–13 hours (including naps)
Toddlers (1–2 years): 11–14 hours (including naps)
Infants (4–12 months): 12–15 hours (including naps)
Newborns (0–3 months): 14–17 hours
However, some people might need more or less sleep than what is generally recommended, depending on the following factors.
Genetic makeup
Your genetics are an important factor in how many hours of sleep you need per night.
For example, those with one specific genetic mutation (基因突变) need only around 6 hours, whereas people without such particular mutation require about 8 hours, on average.
Sleep quality
The quality of your sleep can also affect how much you need.
If your sleep quality is poor, you may find that you still feel tired after getting what should be considered enough.
Therefore, it’s not only important to focus on sleeping long enough but also on sleeping well enough. If you often feel like you aren’t sleeping well or are extremely tired and don’t know why, it’s a good idea to check in with your healthcare provider.
21. What is the main reason for the amount of sleep we need per night?
A. Sleep quality. B. Genetics. C. Our eating habits. D. Our age.
22. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. All school children need to sleep for 9 to 11 hours.
B. Any kind of genetic mutation can lead to a 6-hour sleep pattern.
C. You should turn to your healthcare provider as long as you feel tired.
D. Poor sleep quality may lead to tiredness though you’ve got enough sleep.
23. Where does this passage most probably come from?
A. A health magazine. B. A travel brochure.
C. A fashion website. D. A sports newspaper.
【答案】21. D 22. D 23. A
【解析】

A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.
The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a fight against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the fight against my own body and mind. A test of wills (毅力)!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces (鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: “GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!” By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again. By mile 21, I was starving! As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels (世俗标签), I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.
24. A month before the marathon, the author ______.
A. was well trained B. lost hope C. felt frightened D. made up his mind to run
25. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year?
A. To appreciate the support of his teacher.
B. To show he was not good at sports.
C. To tell the readers a funny story.
D. To share a sweet memory.
26. How was the author’s first marathon?
A. He succeeded. B. He gave up halfway.
C. He got the first prize. D. He walked to the end.
27. What does the story mainly tell us?
A. Well begun is half done. B. Failure is the mother of success.
C. A winner is one with a great effort of will. D. One is never too old to learn.
【答案】24 D 25. B 26. A 27. C
【解析】

He later informed me that I was ‘not athletic’.(我记得我上七年级的时候。在我的第一堂体育课上,老师要求我们跑几圈,然后打一个垒球。我也做得不好。后来他告诉我,我‘不擅长运动’)”可知,作者提到七年级时的体育老师,是想说明自己不擅长体育运动。故选B项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal.(我是最后到达终点的选手之一。但是我完成了!我得到了一枚奖章)”可知,作者的马拉松比赛成功跑完。故选A项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a 'marathon winner'(我决心做我自己,勇往直前,摆脱羞耻和世俗的标签,现在我可以称自己为‘马拉松冠军’)”可知,作者通过自己的经历告诉我们,赢家不一定是比赛得第一的人,只要有坚强的意志,足够怒路,能实现自己的目标就是获胜者。故选C项。
C
Travel is one of the most exciting experiences that a human being can have. Imagine how Italian traveller Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.
And how unbelievable must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia? His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard, leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have travelled all over the world, and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States. Of course, they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV, and the White House, and all the other famous sights. But none of that would compare to the thrill of looking out of the cabin window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation, it’s also educational. We may not know that we are getting education, but we still are.
We’re learning every day: new words in a new language, new people, and new ways of life. But this learning takes place in the school of the world, not in the classroom. One of the lessons we learn is undoubtedly a moral one. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way. The British politician Benjamin Disraeli summed this up well when he said, “Travel teaches toleration.”
28. The author uses Marco Polo and Zhang Qian as examples to ______.
A. explain how the Silk Road was founded
B. describe important cultural exchanges in history
C. show how the way people travel has changed
D. present travel as an amazing experience
29. By saying “the best travel is when it’s for the first time”, the author means that ______.
A. one’s first trip is usually the most challenging
B. people are eager to satisfy their curiosity
C. there is always much to learn on one’s first trip
D. people make better preparations for their first trip
30. The underlined word “recreation”in Paragraph 4 probably means “______”.
A. learning B. knowledge C. fun D. risk
31. According to the last two paragraphs, the author believes that ______.
A. a foreign journey may raise people’s cultural understanding
B. travelling improves people’s confidence in their lifestyle
C. travelling should be included in formal education
D. there is more to learn from adventures than in classrooms
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了旅行的好处,主要包括兴奋的体验感与教育价值,旅行者可以拓宽视野,探索不同文化和生活方式,并反思文化的多样性。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Travel is one of the most exciting experiences that a human being can have. Imagine how Italian traveller Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before. (旅行是一个人所能拥有的最令人兴奋的经历之一。想象一下,当意大利旅行家马可·波罗发现自己来到中国的土地上,看到一种与他以前见过的完全不同的生活方式时,他会有什么感受)”和第二段中“And how unbelievable must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia? His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard (当张骞从中亚和西亚旅行回到中国时,听他讲述一定是多么令人难以置信啊!他的脑子里一定塞满了所见所闻)”可知,作者先提到旅行是最令人兴奋的经历之一,然后举出马可·波罗和张骞的旅行经历,提到他们完全不一样的美妙感受。由此推知,作者提到两人是为了表明旅行是一种奇妙的体验。故选D项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Some people have travelled all over the world, and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. (有些人环游世界,旅行对他们来说是一种生活方式。他们也许在旅行之前就知道会发生什么。这就是为什么最好的旅行是第一次)”和“But none of that would compare to the thrill of looking out of the cabin window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view. (但是,当飞机降落时,这些都比不上从机舱窗口望向窗外,看到真实的美国城市和街道时的兴奋)”可知,当旅行变成一种生活方式时,人们就不再好奇旅行中发生的事,但初次旅行会让人的好奇得以满足,充满兴奋。由此可知,作者说这句话是指初次旅行时人们渴望满足自己的好奇心。故选B项。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据前面表示让步关系的“Although (虽然)”和画线词的下文“it’s also educational. We may not know that we are getting education, but we still are. (它也具有教育意义。我们可能不知道我们正在接受教育,但我们仍然在接受教育)”可知,旅行具有更深的教育意义,即使是在我们自己不知晓的情况下。由此可知,此处指旅行不仅仅是为了娱乐,画线部分意为“娱乐,消遣”,与fun意思相近。故选C项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“it’s also educational (它也具有教育意义)”和最后一段中“One of the lessons we learn is undoubtedly a moral one. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way. (我们从中学到的教训之一无疑是道德上的。随着我们对外国的了解,我们开始明白有许多不同的生活方式,我们的生活方式不一定是最好的)”可推知,作者认为出国旅行可以提高人们对文化的理解,以更加开放的心态对待不同的文化。故选A项。
D
For better eyesight (视力), doctors advise limiting (限制) the hours of screen time and encourage having enough eye resting time.
However, another study shows that sitting in front of computer or TV screens for long hours is not the only reason for myopia (近视). An Australian research team studied young children in Sydney and Singapore to find the reasons for myopia. The research team found that there were less children who had myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore, even though they spent more time in front of computer and TV screens. The major finding is that children in Sydney spend longer hours on outdoor sports than those in Singapore.
Indoor and outdoor sports both make the eyes pay attention to more distant (远处的) objects, which stops the eyes from changing original shape. But outdoor sports may be better than indoor sports for myopia. Because natural light is good for eye growth and vitamin (维他命) D from the sunlight might be useful to it. Many doctors suggest that every child get its first eye test when he/she is about two and half years old, and even if his/her sight seems good enough. It is necessary for myopic(近视的) children to wear glasses to stop headaches, trouble reading and so on. It is also important that schools invite doctors to test their students’ eyes.
If that is not possible, school teachers should at least encourage parents and children to have regular eye examination and wear glasses. And parents should remember not only to limit the total screen time for their children, but also to encourage them to spend time outdoors.
32. What did the Australian research team study for?
A. To find the reasons for myopia.
B. To find the ways to treat myopia.
C. To learn to choose right glasses.
D. To improve children’s eyesight.
33. Why are there fewer children with myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore?
A. Because the children in Sydney watch TV less.
B. Because the children in Sydney have more eye resting time.
C. Because the children in Sydney use computer less.
D. Because the children in Sydney do more outdoor sports.
34. What conclusion can we draw from the passage?
A. Sydney children don’t study hard.
B. Singapore children do few exercise.
C. Room light does harm to children’s eyes.
D. Outdoors activities do more good to eyes.
35. Which of the following is true?
A. Children should have eye tests as soon as they reach school age.
B. Looking more at distant objects can help the eyes keep their original shape.
C. Doing outdoor sports with no glasses is good for myopic children.
D. Children should limit their time in the sun to protect their eyes.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍一项研究表明,长时间坐在电脑或电视屏幕前并不是近视的唯一原因。家长们不仅要记住限制孩子的总屏幕时间,还要鼓励他们多参加户外活动。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“An Australian research team studied young children in Sydney and Singapore to find the reasons for myopia. (澳大利亚的一个研究小组对悉尼和新加坡的幼儿进行了研究,以找出近视的原因。)”可知,澳大利亚的一个研究小组对悉尼和新加坡的幼儿进行了研究是为了找出近视的原因。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The research team found that there were less children who had myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore, even though they spent more time in front of computer and TV screens. The major finding is that children in Sydney spend longer hours on outdoor sports than those in Singapore. (研究小组发现,悉尼的近视儿童比新加坡的少,尽管他们花更多的时间在电脑和电视屏幕前。主要发现是,悉尼的儿童在户外运动上的时间比新加坡的儿童长。)”可知,悉尼的儿童比新加坡的儿童花更多的时间在户外运动上。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Indoor and outdoor sports both make the eyes pay attention to more distant (远处的) objects, which stops the eyes from changing original shape. But outdoor sports may be better than indoor sports for myopia. Because natural light is good for eye growth and vitamin (维他命) D from the sunlight might be useful to it. (室内和室外运动都会使眼睛关注更远的物体,从而阻止眼睛改变原来的形状。但是对于近视来说,户外运动可能比室内运动更好。因为自然光有利于眼睛的生长,阳光中的维生素D可能对眼睛有益。)”可知,室外运动对视力有更多的好处。故选D。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Indoor and outdoor sports both make the eyes pay attention to more distant (远处的) objects, which stops the eyes from changing original shape. (室内和室外运动都会使眼睛关注更远的物体,从而阻止眼睛改变原来的形状。)”可知,关注更远的物体可以保持眼睛原来的形状。故选B。

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Although running indoors on a treadmill (跑步机) is comfortable, many runners prefer to train outdoors because it allows them to enjoy nature. ____36____ But running outdoors presents some challenges. Be careful of the following things.
_____37_____
Many runners make the mistake of setting their speeds inaccurately (不准确地) when running outdoors. This is especially true for those who are used to running indoors. How can you learn your running level? Regularly choose different speeds and learn about your feelings and performance. How do you feel about jogging, racing and sprinting (短跑) speeds? Also, train to alternate (交替) these speeds to make the routine more challenging.
Adapt to the weather.
Remember that running outdoors is different from running indoors on a treadmill. In the winter, you may run more on the treadmill. Treadmills are a soft surface. When the winter is over and you want to run outdoors again, you need to give your body enough time to get used to the outdoors again. _____38_____
Wear the right shoes.
Avoid wearing bad running shoes with worn-out material. If the material is already worn out, it can no longer provide you with the support your feet need for running. _____39_____ Also, make sure you choose the right shoes—shoes designed specifically for the challenges of running.
Stay patient and work for results.
However hard you train, you won’t see results overnight. You need to be patient. _____40_____ Take your time to make progress and expect challenges.
A. Break your old habit.
B. Know your speed.
C. A pair of good shoes can do wonders.
D. Replace old running shoes immediately.
E. A change of scenery can also improve their feeling.
F. Don’t expect your desired results to happen quickly.
G. Give your body time to get used to different surfaces.

【37题详解】
下文“Many runners make the mistake of setting their speeds inaccurately (不准确地) when running outdoors. (在户外跑步时,许多跑步者会犯速度设置不准确的错误)”说明的是跑步的速度问题,因此B项“了解你的速度”适合成为本段小标题。故选B。
【38题详解】
上文“When the winter is over and you want to run outdoors again, you need to give your body enough time to get used to the outdoors again. (当冬天过去了,你又想去户外跑步,你需要给你的身体足够的时间来再次适应户外)”说明的是审题需要时间来适应外在的变化,因此G项“给你的身体时间去适应不同的表面”符合语境。故选G。
【39题详解】
本段小标题“Wear the right shoes (穿合适的鞋子)”说明的是有关鞋子的问题,只有D项“立即更换旧跑鞋”符合“鞋子”这一语境。故选D。

【答案】Dear Amy,
Sorry to learn that you are in a dilemma of whether to quit the school dance club due to the heavy school work. I can relate because I’ve been there before, and here are my opinions.

However, it is important to find a balance between study and extracurricular activities. It might be helpful to communicate with your teachers about your concerns as they can offer possible solutions. Besides, why not manage your time effectively by making a workable schedule?

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My name is Daniel. I was the new boy in the class. There were 33 students in my new class, and most people weren’t very interested in a shy new boy.But a popular boy named Roy was kind to me. He often invited me to join his particular group and we became good friends. We trusted each other and we could talk about personal matters.
Five years later, Roy and I were still in the same class. But just a year ago Roy’s father was knocked over by a car. He died a few days later. The family had difficulty with economy. Roy changed completely. He started losing friends, including me.
About three months ago, a group of us were playing football together after school. Having left something in the classroom, I went inside to get it and found Roy going through the pockets of people’s coats. In his hand he had a wallet and I knew it wasn’t his. Roy went bright red. “I will put it back right now,” he said, and he did so. I turned round and walked out without saying a word. I really hoped that Roy would explain why he had been stealing, but instead he started avoiding me.
Last week, our school had a big party in order to raise money for a charity and we made about £500. But to our surprise, the next morning, we were told that the money had been stolen. This morning I decided to ask Roy about the stealing so I went to see him. Roy was out. I put his jacket on and put my hands in the pockets. I could feel a lot of notes (纸币) and I pulled them out. It looked as if there were about £500 there. I was so surprised that I just stood there, holding the notes in my hand. And that moment, Roy walked in.
Seeing me standing there with money in my hand, Roy felt panicked (恐慌的).
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
We went to the head teacher Mrs Smith, together.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Seeing me standing there with money in my hand, Roy felt panicked (恐慌的). I became very angry, asking him if it was the money that we raised last week. He went bright red, admitting that he had stolen it in a low voice. I slowly calmed down and hugged him, telling him that I would be willing to help him overcome his difficulty. He wept and then we had a sincere face-to-face talk. At last, we agreed to return the money.
We went to the head teacher Mrs Smith, together. In the teacher’s office, Roy returned the money to Mrs Smith, and guaranteed not to do such things again. Though Mrs Smith was so surprised that she couldn't believe her eyes, she praised him for his courage and told him if he had difficulty with finance she would be ready to help him. Roy was moved to tears. After that, we became good friends again. We trusted each other and shared sorrow and happiness together.
