U.S. pig organ transplant experiment
American doctors have released details about another operation involving the transplant of pig organs into humans.
A medical team from the University of Alabama at Birmingham said it had successfully transplanted pig kidneys into a brain-dead human. The operation took place last September, but was first reported January 20.
Similar operations have taken place in recent months.
In October, doctors at New York University temporarily attached a pig kidney to blood vessels outside the body of a brain-dead human. And earlier this month, doctors at University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore transplanted a pig heart into a living human patient.
In all of the operations, doctors used organs from genetically modified pigs provided by Virginia-based medical company Revivicor.
The latest experiment in Alabama was performed on 57-year-old Jim Parsons, who was declared brain-dead after being injured in a motorcycle accident. His family donated his body to science.
For a little more than three days -- until the man’s body was removed from life support -- the two pig kidneys survived with no signs of immediate rejection, the medical team reported. The results were recently published in a study in the American Journal of Transplantation.
Dr. Jayme Locke of the University of Alabama at Birmingham led the new study. She told The Associated Press the experiment marks the beginning of a planned series of pig kidney transplants.
“The organ shortage is in fact an unmitigated crisis, and we’ve never had a real solution to it,” Locke said.
She added that an important finding of the latest operation helped answer a major question: Could the pig kidney blood vessels survive the force of human blood pressure? She said the operation proved that the answer was yes.
One kidney was damaged during removal from the pig and did not work effectively, the team reported. But the other quickly started producing urine as a kidney is supposed to.
Locke said no pig viruses were passed on to the human, and no pig cells were found in the man’s bloodstream. She added that the latest experiment showed that brain-dead bodies can serve as much-needed human models to test out possible new treatments.
In the donor pigs, scientists removed several genes linked to organ rejection. They also removed another gene in an effort to prevent too much growth of pig heart tissue.
Dr. Robert Montgomery has led similar experiments at New York University’s Langone Health in New York City. He told the AP that scientists still have a lot to learn about how long pig organs survive, and how best to genetically change them. “I think different organs will require different genetic modifications,” he said.
Organ donor organizations estimate there are about 110,000 Americans currently waiting for an organ transplant. And more than 6,000 patients die each year before getting an organ, reports organdonor.gov.

美国猪器官移植实验
美国医生公布了另一项涉及将猪的器官移植到人体的手术细节。
阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校的一个医疗小组说,他们已经成功地将猪的肾脏移植到一个脑死亡的人身上。该手术发生在去年9月,但首次报道是在1月20日。
类似的手术在最近几个月也发生了。
10月,纽约大学的医生将一个猪的肾脏暂时连接到一个脑死亡的人身体外的血管上。本月早些时候,巴尔的摩马里兰大学医学院的医生将一颗猪的心脏移植到一个活着的人类病人身上。
在所有的手术中,医生都使用了由位于弗吉尼亚州的医疗公司Revivicor提供的转基因猪的器官。
阿拉巴马州的最新实验是在57岁的吉姆-帕森斯身上进行的,他在一次摩托车事故中受伤后被宣布脑死亡。他的家人将他的身体捐给了科学。
医疗小组报告说,在三天多一点的时间里--直到该男子的身体从生命支持系统中被移除--两个猪肾存活下来,没有立即出现排斥的迹象。这一结果最近发表在《美国移植杂志》的一项研究中。
阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校的Jayme Locke博士领导这项新研究。她告诉美联社,这项实验标志着一系列计划中的猪肾移植的开始。
洛克说:“器官短缺实际上是一个无法缓解的危机,我们从来没有一个真正的解决方案。”
她补充说,最新手术的一个重要发现有助于回答一个重要问题。猪的肾脏血管能否经受住人类血压的压力?她说,这次手术证明答案是肯定的。
该小组报告说,一个肾脏在从猪身上取出时被损坏,不能有效地工作。但另一个很快就开始产生尿液,就像一个肾脏应该有的那样。
洛克说,没有猪的病毒传给人,也没有在这个人的血液中发现猪的细胞。她补充说,最新的实验表明,脑死亡的尸体可以作为急需的人类模型来测试可能的新疗法。
在捐献的猪身上,科学家们删除了几个与器官排斥有关的基因。他们还删除了另一个基因,以防止猪的心脏组织过多地生长。
罗伯特-蒙哥马利博士曾在纽约市的纽约大学朗格尼健康中心领导过类似的实验。他告诉美联社,对于猪的器官能存活多久,以及如何最好地对它们进行基因改变,科学家们仍有很多东西需要学习。他说:“我认为不同的器官将需要不同的基因修改。”
器官捐赠组织估计,目前约有11万名美国人在等待器官移植。而每年有超过6000名患者在获得器官之前死亡,organdonor.gov报道。

(2025·八省联考真题)
(2025·八省联考真题)Want to learn a new language or get A’s in college exams? Previous studies have shown that exercise can help stimulate the areas of the brain that convert (转换) new information into long-term memory. A new study has taken this information one step further and found the best time when exercise can help maximize learning.
Building upon past research that found exercise releases biochemicals that improve mental function, scientists at Radboud University and the University of Edinburgh conducted a study to determine when exercise was most beneficial to learning.
Participants — 72 healthy male and female adults — were first asked to perform a computer test that challenged their visual and spatial learning. After the test, all of the subjects watched nature documentaries, but two-thirds of them also exercised. Half of the exercisers did circuit training on an exercise bike for 35 minutes immediately after the test. The other half did the same exercise but not until four hours after they had been tested.
Two days later, all of the participants returned to the lab for a recall test, and they were connected to MRI (磁共振成像) machines to assess their brain activity. The participants who exercised four hours after taking the computer test were able to recall what they had learned most accurately. Their brainwaves also showed more consistent levels of activity, indicating that their brains were less taxed to remember what they had learned.
According to this research, the best time to exercise to improve learning is four hours after studying. But why? That’s one question the researchers have yet to answer. Another question left unanswered is the level of exercise that might best improve learning. I’ve run enough marathons to prove the fact that my brain is anything but sharp during or after a tough workout. But the researchers noted that light workouts might not give the brain enough of a biochemical boost to improve learning.
1.What did the new study aim to explore?
A.When exercise is best for learning. B.What biochemicals are good for health.
C.How brainwaves should be measured. D.Which area of the brain is the most active.
2.What were all the participants asked to do during the experiment?
A.Train on bicycles. B.Do mathematics exercises.
C.Play computer games. D.Watch films about nature.
3.Why did the participants return to the lab two days later?
A.To do a medical examination. B.To have their memory tested.
C.To get their workouts recorded. D.To finish their previous tasks.
4.What might the author’s marathon running prove?
A.The findings of the study are reliable. B.Long-distance runners are often smart.
C.Studies on the marathon are not enough. D.Hard exercise may not sharpen the brain.

想学习一门新语言,或者在大学考试中拿 A 吗?先前的研究表明,运动有助于刺激大脑中负责将新信息转化为长期记忆的区域。一项新研究进一步深入探讨了这一课题,并发现了运动助力学习效果最大化的最佳时机。
基于过去的研究 —— 运动能够释放改善心理功能的生物化学物质,拉德堡德大学和爱丁堡大学的科学家开展了一项研究,以确定运动在何时对学习最为有益。
研究参与者为 72 名健康的成年男女。他们首先要进行一项电脑测试,该测试考验他们的视觉和空间学习能力。测试结束后,所有受试者都观看了自然纪录片,不过其中三分之二的人还进行了运动。在这些运动者中,有一半人在测试结束后立即骑健身自行车进行 35 分钟的循环训练。另一半人同样进行了此项运动,但却是在测试结束 4 小时之后。
两天后,所有参与者回到实验室进行回忆测试,同时他们连接上磁共振成像(MRI)机器,以评估他们的大脑活动。在完成电脑测试 4 小时后进行运动的参与者,能够最为准确地回忆起所学内容。他们的脑电波也显示出更为稳定的活动水平,这表明他们的大脑在回忆所学内容时负担较小。
根据这项研究,为提高学习效果,运动的最佳时间是在学习 4 小时之后。但这是为什么呢?这是研究人员尚未解答的问题之一。另一个悬而未决的问题是,何种运动强度最有助于提高学习效果。我跑过足够多的马拉松,足以证明在高强度锻炼期间或之后,我的大脑一点也不敏锐。但研究人员指出,轻度锻炼可能无法为大脑提供足够的生物化学刺激来提升学习效果。

(24-25高二上·广西贵港·期末)“We were amazed at what we were seeing on a hot summer’s day, when a group of people with Parkinson’s disease (帕金森病) began rock climbing on the Carderock Cliffs of Maryland. Yes, rock climbing! It’s all part of their therapy,” says Molly Cupka, the no-nonsense instructor and cheerleader for this community of courageous climbers. She started this program, called Up ENDing Parkinson’s, as a non-profit 12 years ago.
There’s no cure for Parkinson’s disease, which usually affects mobility, coordination, balance, and even speech. Jon Lessin was diagnosed (诊断) in 2003. He was once an all-around athlete. About 12 years ago, he retired because of Parkinson’s disease. It was Lessin who first had that big idea to use rock climbing as a therapy for Parkinson’s disease. “I wanted to do big-movement exercise,” he said. “And I found Molly Cupka at this gym.”
Lessin suggested the idea to Molly Cupka, who runs the Sportrock Climbing Centers in Alexandria, Virginia. She thought it was worth a try, given the sport requires participants to plan ahead, and to know where to position their hands and feet. “I wish I could go into the brain and see what’s happening while people climb,” Molly Cupka said.
There’s no evidence that climbing slows the progress of Parkinson’s disease, but Molly Cupka joined forces with Marymount University last year to study patients climbing for the first time. “We have people literally walking and carrying weights, you know, walking and looking, multitasking (同时处理多项任务) ,” she said. The study found that, in so many words, if you climb, you may walk better.
Marymount University’s Center for Optimal Aging studies on physical and psychosocial effects of rock climbing on individuals with Parkinson’s disease. Mark de Mulder, a musician and former director of the National Geospatial Program, doesn’t need a study to prove what climbing does for him. “It allows me to say, ‘All right, take that, Parkinson’s! I’m doing this! ‘ It just makes me feel stronger, and I’m fighting it. I’m doing something about it.”
Many of the climbers have become friends who climb together several times a week, and they’ve become a support group, Parkinson’s Pals, who encourage each other.
1.How do people feel when seeing those with Parkinson’s disease rock climbing?
A.Surprised. B.Confused.
C.Annoyed. D.Embarrassed.
2.Why did Molly Cupka decide to try rock climbing therapy?
A.It’s a low-impact exercise. B.It involves multitasking.
C.It requires no planning. D.It’s an individual activity.
3.What did the study reveal about rock climbing to people with Parkinson’s disease?
A.It enriches their social life. B.It completely cures the disease.
C.It improves their walking ability. D.It slows the progress of the disease.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Rock Climbing as a Sport B.Living with Parkinson’s Disease
C.The Impact of Exercise on Parkinson’s Disease D.Fighting Parkinson’s Disease with Rock Climbing

(24-25高二上·江西·期末)In Finland, it’s a basic duty for the government to provide the public with sporting possibilities. That thinking started in the 1970s, when the government built gyms in even the smallest towns. Now, there are about 30,000 sports facilities across the country. Walkways and bike paths snake through the cities. Public swimming pools are everywhere. Here you can just step out of your door and do sports.
Finns do just that. Half of women and a third of men bike to work. About a fifth of the country belongs to sports clubs. Some people even play sports at work. For example, every Wednesday morning, a group of scientists at the University of Jyväskylä leave their desks to play “futsal”, an indoor form of soccer, in a gym across the street. It’s one of the most popular team sports in the country, along with floor ball and Finnish baseball. A nearby chocolate factory has a gym and offers aerobics classes.
“Employers started to encourage sports participation about a century ago in the forestry industry,” says Hanna Vehmas, a sports scientist at the University of Jyväskylä. “Nowadays, 90% of employers support their employees’ physical activities in some way. Each year, they spend an average of about $220 per employee for physical activities.”
One reason why employers tend to support their employees’ physical activities is due to a tax break. Businesses can deduct money spent on employees’ physical well-being.
“But there’s something else. We have a lot of research showing that spending money on employees’ well-being will bring back as much as six times the money spent,” says Vehmas. “Because healthy employees do better work. They also don’t have as many sick days. And staying fit, especially by playing sports together, could help build company loyalty which is actually even more important than the health side.”
Physically active people also save the health care system a lot of money. Data from the Finnish Ministry of Social Affairs &. Health shows that people who bike and walk save the health care system as much as $5.5 billion each year.
1.Why are the scientists at the University of Jyväskylä mentioned in paragraph 2?
A.To tell the popularity of a unique sport. B.To describe the process of an experiment.
C.To show the easy access to sports facilities. D.To call for more public participation in sports.
2.When did the forestry industry start to encourage sports participation?
A.About 50 years ago. B.About 60 years ago.
C.About 80 years ago. D.About 100 years ago.
3.What does Hanna Vehmas say about the effort for employees’ physical well-being?
A.It is a waste of money. B.It brings in various benefits.
C.It takes too much time. D.It cuts workers’ productivity.
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.How Can Finns Make Sports Part of Everyday Life?
B.Why Are There So Many Sports Facilities Across Finland?
C.Why Has Finland Become the Healthiest Country in the World?
D.How Can Employers in Finland Be Encouraged to Spend on Sports?

(24-25高二上·江苏南通·期末)Cleaning your hands with soap and water washes away bacteria. But the hot-air hand dryers found in many public restrooms seem to blow microbes (微生物) right back onto clean skin. That’s what 16-year-old Zita Nguyen found by swabbing (用拭子擦拭) people’s freshly washed and dried hands.
Water going through toilets in public restrooms results in the bacteria from human wastes entering the air. That same air is drawn into those wall-mounted electric hand dryers. These machines provide a nice warm home in which microbes can grow well, and cleaning the inside of these machines can be difficult, Zita says. “Freshly washed hands are getting dirtied with the bacteria that grow inside these machines. ” she adds.
The idea for her project came from the pandemic (流行病). People stayed at least one meter away from each other to limit the spread of the pandemic. Zita wanted to explore that idea with hand dryers. Would drying hands farther away from the hot-air dryer lessen the number of bacteria that fall back onto the skin?
The teen had four people wash and dry their hands in the restrooms. The participants washed with soap and water. After each washing, they dried their hands using one of three different methods. In some trials, they simply used paper towels. In the others, they used an electric hand dryer. Sometimes, they held their hands close to the machine, about 13 centimeters below it. At other times, they held their hands about 30 centimeters below the dryer. Each hand-drying condition was performed 20 times. Right after this drying, Zita swabbed their hands for bacteria. Then she placed these swabs on Petri dishes for three days in suitable growing conditions.
Afterward, all the Petri dishes were covered with bacteria. Fewer than 50 bacterial colonies (菌落), on average, turned up in each dish exposed to swabs from hands dried with paper towels or from hands held farther from the electric dryers. In contrast, more than 130 colonies, on average, grew in Petri dishes from hands held close to the hot-air dryers.
Zita was amazed by all the microbes in these dishes and realized they represented what covered people’s hands after using a hot-air dryer.
1.What did Zita Nguyen discover in her research?
A.Public restrooms are full of bacteria in the air. B.Swabbing freshly washed hands is unnecessary.
C.Hand dryers can infect clean hands with bacteria. D.Cleaning the inside of hot-air hand dryers is hard.
2.What was the inspiration for Zita’s project?
A.Her concern over the damage of bacteria to skins.
B.Safety distance for people during the pandemic.
C.Her curiosity about the structure of hand dryers.
D.The medicine of limiting the spread of the pandemic.
3.What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A.The process of conducting the experiment. B.The reason for hand-dryers having bacteria.
C.The desire for better drying hands machines. D.The result of drying hands with paper towels.
4.The number of bacterial colonies in the dishes is related to ________.
A.the application of hand dryers B.the lasting time of swabbing hands
C.the growing conditions for bacteria D.the functions of hot-air hand dryers

(24-25高二上·广东深圳·期末)The 20-Minute Rule to Accomplish Any Task
Do you often struggle to begin tasks on schedule and find excuses to delay the start time? Do you choose to do something else instead of focusing on tasks that need immediate attention? 1 The basic idea is that if you have a task you don’t want to do, tell yourself you only need to do it for 20 minutes.
The 20-minute rule is very simple. Next time you dread doing something, set a timer for 20 minutes, and start working on whatever you’ve been putting off. When the timer goes off, reset it and take a 20-minute break to focus on a different task or do something else you’re more interested in. 2 After a few cycles of this, you’ll find you’ve built up strength and can keep working on the task you previously dreaded.
The 20-minute rule is designed to help you start developing new emotions in connection with a task. The thing is, the 20-minute rule is not actually meant to get the job done at all. 3
Often, once you set out, it becomes easier to continue, and you may find yourself willing to work beyond the initial 20 minutes. If you used the 20-minute rule to start studying for your test, after a few rotations (轮换) of the timer you would discover the task isn’t as painful as you thought. You may even start to enjoy it! 4 Try the 15-minute rule, the 10-minute rule, or the 5-minute rule. I’ve even used the 30-second rule. That’s right, 30 seconds.
Start small. Prove to yourself that you will not experience a high level of discomfort from doing the task you set out to do. Begin to rewrite the emotions you anticipate in relation to a certain task.
The reasons behind delay are primarily fear and the anticipation of pain. 5 Just set a timer, and get started.
A.It’s meant to help you get started.
B.But if the twenty-minute rule fails for you?
C.Whatever you fear, you don’t have to do it all at once.
D.Face your fears bravely and tackle the entire task in one go.
E.Consider the “20-minute rule” to motivate yourself to start.
F.Reset the timer when it goes off and return to your original task.
G.If the timer goes off and you’re still uninterested, switch tasks permanently.

U.S. pig organ transplant experiment
American doctors have released details about another operation involving the transplant of pig organs into humans.
A medical team from the University of Alabama at Birmingham said it had successfully transplanted pig kidneys into a brain-dead human. The operation took place last September, but was first reported January 20.
Similar operations have taken place in recent months.
In October, doctors at New York University temporarily attached a pig kidney to blood vessels outside the body of a brain-dead human. And earlier this month, doctors at University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore transplanted a pig heart into a living human patient.
In all of the operations, doctors used organs from genetically modified pigs provided by Virginia-based medical company Revivicor.
The latest experiment in Alabama was performed on 57-year-old Jim Parsons, who was declared brain-dead after being injured in a motorcycle accident. His family donated his body to science.
For a little more than three days -- until the man’s body was removed from life support -- the two pig kidneys survived with no signs of immediate rejection, the medical team reported. The results were recently published in a study in the American Journal of Transplantation.
Dr. Jayme Locke of the University of Alabama at Birmingham led the new study. She told The Associated Press the experiment marks the beginning of a planned series of pig kidney transplants.
“The organ shortage is in fact an unmitigated crisis, and we’ve never had a real solution to it,” Locke said.
She added that an important finding of the latest operation helped answer a major question: Could the pig kidney blood vessels survive the force of human blood pressure? She said the operation proved that the answer was yes.
One kidney was damaged during removal from the pig and did not work effectively, the team reported. But the other quickly started producing urine as a kidney is supposed to.
Locke said no pig viruses were passed on to the human, and no pig cells were found in the man’s bloodstream. She added that the latest experiment showed that brain-dead bodies can serve as much-needed human models to test out possible new treatments.
In the donor pigs, scientists removed several genes linked to organ rejection. They also removed another gene in an effort to prevent too much growth of pig heart tissue.
Dr. Robert Montgomery has led similar experiments at New York University’s Langone Health in New York City. He told the AP that scientists still have a lot to learn about how long pig organs survive, and how best to genetically change them. “I think different organs will require different genetic modifications,” he said.
Organ donor organizations estimate there are about 110,000 Americans currently waiting for an organ transplant. And more than 6,000 patients die each year before getting an organ, reports organdonor.gov.

美国猪器官移植实验
美国医生公布了另一项涉及将猪的器官移植到人体的手术细节。
阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校的一个医疗小组说,他们已经成功地将猪的肾脏移植到一个脑死亡的人身上。该手术发生在去年9月,但首次报道是在1月20日。
类似的手术在最近几个月也发生了。
10月,纽约大学的医生将一个猪的肾脏暂时连接到一个脑死亡的人身体外的血管上。本月早些时候,巴尔的摩马里兰大学医学院的医生将一颗猪的心脏移植到一个活着的人类病人身上。
在所有的手术中,医生都使用了由位于弗吉尼亚州的医疗公司Revivicor提供的转基因猪的器官。
阿拉巴马州的最新实验是在57岁的吉姆-帕森斯身上进行的,他在一次摩托车事故中受伤后被宣布脑死亡。他的家人将他的身体捐给了科学。
医疗小组报告说,在三天多一点的时间里--直到该男子的身体从生命支持系统中被移除--两个猪肾存活下来,没有立即出现排斥的迹象。这一结果最近发表在《美国移植杂志》的一项研究中。
阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校的Jayme Locke博士领导这项新研究。她告诉美联社,这项实验标志着一系列计划中的猪肾移植的开始。
洛克说:“器官短缺实际上是一个无法缓解的危机,我们从来没有一个真正的解决方案。”
她补充说,最新手术的一个重要发现有助于回答一个重要问题。猪的肾脏血管能否经受住人类血压的压力?她说,这次手术证明答案是肯定的。
该小组报告说,一个肾脏在从猪身上取出时被损坏,不能有效地工作。但另一个很快就开始产生尿液,就像一个肾脏应该有的那样。
洛克说,没有猪的病毒传给人,也没有在这个人的血液中发现猪的细胞。她补充说,最新的实验表明,脑死亡的尸体可以作为急需的人类模型来测试可能的新疗法。
在捐献的猪身上,科学家们删除了几个与器官排斥有关的基因。他们还删除了另一个基因,以防止猪的心脏组织过多地生长。
罗伯特-蒙哥马利博士曾在纽约市的纽约大学朗格尼健康中心领导过类似的实验。他告诉美联社,对于猪的器官能存活多久,以及如何最好地对它们进行基因改变,科学家们仍有很多东西需要学习。他说:“我认为不同的器官将需要不同的基因修改。”
器官捐赠组织估计,目前约有11万名美国人在等待器官移植。而每年有超过6000名患者在获得器官之前死亡,organdonor.gov报道。

(2025·八省联考真题)
(2025·八省联考真题)Want to learn a new language or get A’s in college exams? Previous studies have shown that exercise can help stimulate the areas of the brain that convert (转换) new information into long-term memory. A new study has taken this information one step further and found the best time when exercise can help maximize learning.
Building upon past research that found exercise releases biochemicals that improve mental function, scientists at Radboud University and the University of Edinburgh conducted a study to determine when exercise was most beneficial to learning.
Participants — 72 healthy male and female adults — were first asked to perform a computer test that challenged their visual and spatial learning. After the test, all of the subjects watched nature documentaries, but two-thirds of them also exercised. Half of the exercisers did circuit training on an exercise bike for 35 minutes immediately after the test. The other half did the same exercise but not until four hours after they had been tested.
Two days later, all of the participants returned to the lab for a recall test, and they were connected to MRI (磁共振成像) machines to assess their brain activity. The participants who exercised four hours after taking the computer test were able to recall what they had learned most accurately. Their brainwaves also showed more consistent levels of activity, indicating that their brains were less taxed to remember what they had learned.
According to this research, the best time to exercise to improve learning is four hours after studying. But why? That’s one question the researchers have yet to answer. Another question left unanswered is the level of exercise that might best improve learning. I’ve run enough marathons to prove the fact that my brain is anything but sharp during or after a tough workout. But the researchers noted that light workouts might not give the brain enough of a biochemical boost to improve learning.
1.What did the new study aim to explore?
A.When exercise is best for learning. B.What biochemicals are good for health.
C.How brainwaves should be measured. D.Which area of the brain is the most active.
2.What were all the participants asked to do during the experiment?
A.Train on bicycles. B.Do mathematics exercises.
C.Play computer games. D.Watch films about nature.
3.Why did the participants return to the lab two days later?
A.To do a medical examination. B.To have their memory tested.
C.To get their workouts recorded. D.To finish their previous tasks.
4.What might the author’s marathon running prove?
A.The findings of the study are reliable. B.Long-distance runners are often smart.
C.Studies on the marathon are not enough. D.Hard exercise may not sharpen the brain.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.B 4.D

想学习一门新语言,或者在大学考试中拿 A 吗?先前的研究表明,运动有助于刺激大脑中负责将新信息转化为长期记忆的区域。一项新研究进一步深入探讨了这一课题,并发现了运动助力学习效果最大化的最佳时机。
基于过去的研究 —— 运动能够释放改善心理功能的生物化学物质,拉德堡德大学和爱丁堡大学的科学家开展了一项研究,以确定运动在何时对学习最为有益。
研究参与者为 72 名健康的成年男女。他们首先要进行一项电脑测试,该测试考验他们的视觉和空间学习能力。测试结束后,所有受试者都观看了自然纪录片,不过其中三分之二的人还进行了运动。在这些运动者中,有一半人在测试结束后立即骑健身自行车进行 35 分钟的循环训练。另一半人同样进行了此项运动,但却是在测试结束 4 小时之后。
两天后,所有参与者回到实验室进行回忆测试,同时他们连接上磁共振成像(MRI)机器,以评估他们的大脑活动。在完成电脑测试 4 小时后进行运动的参与者,能够最为准确地回忆起所学内容。他们的脑电波也显示出更为稳定的活动水平,这表明他们的大脑在回忆所学内容时负担较小。
根据这项研究,为提高学习效果,运动的最佳时间是在学习 4 小时之后。但这是为什么呢?这是研究人员尚未解答的问题之一。另一个悬而未决的问题是,何种运动强度最有助于提高学习效果。我跑过足够多的马拉松,足以证明在高强度锻炼期间或之后,我的大脑一点也不敏锐。但研究人员指出,轻度锻炼可能无法为大脑提供足够的生物化学刺激来提升学习效果。

(24-25高二上·广西贵港·期末)“We were amazed at what we were seeing on a hot summer’s day, when a group of people with Parkinson’s disease (帕金森病) began rock climbing on the Carderock Cliffs of Maryland. Yes, rock climbing! It’s all part of their therapy,” says Molly Cupka, the no-nonsense instructor and cheerleader for this community of courageous climbers. She started this program, called Up ENDing Parkinson’s, as a non-profit 12 years ago.
There’s no cure for Parkinson’s disease, which usually affects mobility, coordination, balance, and even speech. Jon Lessin was diagnosed (诊断) in 2003. He was once an all-around athlete. About 12 years ago, he retired because of Parkinson’s disease. It was Lessin who first had that big idea to use rock climbing as a therapy for Parkinson’s disease. “I wanted to do big-movement exercise,” he said. “And I found Molly Cupka at this gym.”
Lessin suggested the idea to Molly Cupka, who runs the Sportrock Climbing Centers in Alexandria, Virginia. She thought it was worth a try, given the sport requires participants to plan ahead, and to know where to position their hands and feet. “I wish I could go into the brain and see what’s happening while people climb,” Molly Cupka said.
There’s no evidence that climbing slows the progress of Parkinson’s disease, but Molly Cupka joined forces with Marymount University last year to study patients climbing for the first time. “We have people literally walking and carrying weights, you know, walking and looking, multitasking (同时处理多项任务) ,” she said. The study found that, in so many words, if you climb, you may walk better.
Marymount University’s Center for Optimal Aging studies on physical and psychosocial effects of rock climbing on individuals with Parkinson’s disease. Mark de Mulder, a musician and former director of the National Geospatial Program, doesn’t need a study to prove what climbing does for him. “It allows me to say, ‘All right, take that, Parkinson’s! I’m doing this! ‘ It just makes me feel stronger, and I’m fighting it. I’m doing something about it.”
Many of the climbers have become friends who climb together several times a week, and they’ve become a support group, Parkinson’s Pals, who encourage each other.
1.How do people feel when seeing those with Parkinson’s disease rock climbing?
A.Surprised. B.Confused.
C.Annoyed. D.Embarrassed.
2.Why did Molly Cupka decide to try rock climbing therapy?
A.It’s a low-impact exercise. B.It involves multitasking.
C.It requires no planning. D.It’s an individual activity.
3.What did the study reveal about rock climbing to people with Parkinson’s disease?
A.It enriches their social life. B.It completely cures the disease.
C.It improves their walking ability. D.It slows the progress of the disease.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Rock Climbing as a Sport B.Living with Parkinson’s Disease
C.The Impact of Exercise on Parkinson’s Disease D.Fighting Parkinson’s Disease with Rock Climbing
【答案】1.A 2.B 3.C 4.D

Yes, rock climbing! It’s all part of their therapy,” says Molly Cupka, the no-nonsense instructor and cheerleader for this community of courageous climbers. (“在一个炎热的夏日,当我们看到一群人在马里兰州的卡德洛克悬崖上攀岩时,我们惊讶不已。这些人都患有帕金森病。没错,就是攀岩!这是他们治疗的一部分,”莫莉·库普卡说道,她是这个勇敢攀岩者社区的务实导师和拉拉队长。)”可知,当看到一群帕金森病患者进行攀岩时,人们感到很惊讶。故选 A。
2.推理判断题。根据文章第三段中“She thought it was worth a try, given the sport requires participants to plan ahead, and to know where to position their hands and feet. “I wish I could go into the brain and see what’s happening while people climb,” Molly Cupka said. (她认为这值得一试,因为这项运动要求参与者提前规划,并知道如何放置手脚。“我希望我能进入人们的大脑,看看他们在攀岩时发生了什么,”莫莉·库普卡说。)”以及第四段中““We have people literally walking and carrying weights, you know, walking and looking, multitasking,” she said. (“我们的人实际上是在走路、举重、走路、观察,同时处理多项任务,”她说。)”可知,攀岩这项运动需要参与者提前计划,知道手脚的位置,并且在过程中需要同时处理多项任务,所以Molly Cupka 认为值得一试。故选 B。
3.细节理解题。根据文章第四段 中“The study found that, in so many words, if you climb, you may walk better. (研究发现,简而言之,如果你攀岩,你可能会走得更好。)”可知,研究发现对于帕金森病患者来说,攀岩可以改善他们的行走能力。故选 C。
4.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第一段““We were amazed at what we were seeing on a hot summer’s day, when a group of people with Parkinson’s disease began rock climbing on the Carderock Cliffs of Maryland. Yes, rock climbing! It’s all part of their therapy,” says Molly Cupka, the no-nonsense instructor and cheerleader for this community of courageous climbers. She started this program, called Up ENDing Parkinson’s, as a non-profit 12 years ago. (“在一个炎热的夏日,当我们看到一群人在马里兰州的卡德洛克悬崖上攀岩时,我们惊讶不已。这些人都患有帕金森病。没错,就是攀岩!这是他们治疗的一部分,”莫莉·库普卡说道,她是这个勇敢攀岩者社区的务实导师和拉拉队长。12年前,她创立了名为“终结帕金森”的非营利项目。)”可知,文章主要讲述了通过攀岩这种疗法来帮助帕金森病患者,尽管没有证据表明攀岩能减缓疾病进展,但研究发现它能改善患者的行走能力,并且患者们还互相鼓励,一起攀岩,所以“Fighting Parkinson’s Disease with Rock Climbing (用攀岩对抗帕金森病)”作为标题最合适。故选 D。

(24-25高二上·江西·期末)In Finland, it’s a basic duty for the government to provide the public with sporting possibilities. That thinking started in the 1970s, when the government built gyms in even the smallest towns. Now, there are about 30,000 sports facilities across the country. Walkways and bike paths snake through the cities. Public swimming pools are everywhere. Here you can just step out of your door and do sports.
Finns do just that. Half of women and a third of men bike to work. About a fifth of the country belongs to sports clubs. Some people even play sports at work. For example, every Wednesday morning, a group of scientists at the University of Jyväskylä leave their desks to play “futsal”, an indoor form of soccer, in a gym across the street. It’s one of the most popular team sports in the country, along with floor ball and Finnish baseball. A nearby chocolate factory has a gym and offers aerobics classes.
“Employers started to encourage sports participation about a century ago in the forestry industry,” says Hanna Vehmas, a sports scientist at the University of Jyväskylä. “Nowadays, 90% of employers support their employees’ physical activities in some way. Each year, they spend an average of about $220 per employee for physical activities.”
One reason why employers tend to support their employees’ physical activities is due to a tax break. Businesses can deduct money spent on employees’ physical well-being.
“But there’s something else. We have a lot of research showing that spending money on employees’ well-being will bring back as much as six times the money spent,” says Vehmas. “Because healthy employees do better work. They also don’t have as many sick days. And staying fit, especially by playing sports together, could help build company loyalty which is actually even more important than the health side.”
Physically active people also save the health care system a lot of money. Data from the Finnish Ministry of Social Affairs &. Health shows that people who bike and walk save the health care system as much as $5.5 billion each year.
1.Why are the scientists at the University of Jyväskylä mentioned in paragraph 2?
A.To tell the popularity of a unique sport. B.To describe the process of an experiment.
C.To show the easy access to sports facilities. D.To call for more public participation in sports.
2.When did the forestry industry start to encourage sports participation?
A.About 50 years ago. B.About 60 years ago.
C.About 80 years ago. D.About 100 years ago.
3.What does Hanna Vehmas say about the effort for employees’ physical well-being?
A.It is a waste of money. B.It brings in various benefits.
C.It takes too much time. D.It cuts workers’ productivity.
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.How Can Finns Make Sports Part of Everyday Life?
B.Why Are There So Many Sports Facilities Across Finland?
C.Why Has Finland Become the Healthiest Country in the World?
D.How Can Employers in Finland Be Encouraged to Spend on Sports?
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.B 4.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要分析了芬兰能够实现全民运动的原因:政府的直接投入及税收减免、雇主的响应及鼓励。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段“Here you can just step out of your door and do sports.(在这里,走出家门你就可以运动)”和第二段“Finns do just that. Half of women and a third of men bike to work. About a fifth of the country belongs to sports clubs. Some people even play sports at work. For example, every Wednesday morning, a group of scientists at the University of Jyväskylä leave their desks to play “futsal”, an indoor form of soccer, in a gym across the street.(芬兰人就是这么做的。一半的女性和三分之一的男性骑自行车上班。全国大约有五分之一的人参加体育俱乐部。有些人甚至在工作时做运动。例如,每周三早上,Jyväskylä大学的一群科学家离开办公桌,在街对面的体育馆里玩“五人制足球”,这是一种室内足球)”可知,作者举这个例子是为了说明在芬兰运动设施很普及。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段““Employers started to encourage sports participation about a century ago in the forestry industry,” says Hanna Vehmas, a sports scientist at the University of Jyväskylä.(“大约一个世纪前,林业行业的雇主就开始鼓励员工参加体育运动,”Jyväskylä大学的体育科学家Hanna Vehmas表示)”可知,林业大约100年前开始鼓励体育参与。故选D。
3.细节理解题。根据第五段““But there’s something else. We have a lot of research showing that spending money on employees’ well-being will bring back as much as six times the money spent,” says Vehmas. “Because healthy employees do better work. They also don’t have as many sick days. And staying fit, especially by playing sports together, could help build company loyalty which is actually even more important than the health side.”(“但是还有别的事情。我们有很多研究表明,把钱花在员工的福利上,能带来6倍的回报。”“因为健康的员工工作得更好。他们也没有那么多病假。保持健康,尤其是一起运动,可以帮助建立公司忠诚度,这实际上比健康更重要。”)”可知,Hanna Vehmas认为对员工身体健康的努力可以带来各种好处。故选B。
4.主旨大意题。通读全文,根据第一段“In Finland, it’s a basic duty for the government to provide the public with sporting possibilities. That thinking started in the 1970s, when the government built gyms in even the smallest towns. Now, there are about 30,000 sports facilities across the country. Walkways and bike paths snake through the cities. Public swimming pools are everywhere. Here you can just step out of your door and do sports.(在芬兰,政府的基本职责是为公众提供体育活动的可能性。这种想法始于20世纪70年代,当时政府甚至在最小的城镇都修建了健身房。现在,全国大约有3万个体育设施。人行道和自行车道蜿蜒穿过城市。公共游泳池随处可见。在这里,你走出家门就可以做运动)”可知,文章主要分析了芬兰能够实现全民运动的原因:政府的直接投入及税收减免、雇主的响应及鼓励。因此A选项“芬兰人如何让体育成为日常生活的一部分?”最符合文章标题。故选A。

(24-25高二上·江苏南通·期末)Cleaning your hands with soap and water washes away bacteria. But the hot-air hand dryers found in many public restrooms seem to blow microbes (微生物) right back onto clean skin. That’s what 16-year-old Zita Nguyen found by swabbing (用拭子擦拭) people’s freshly washed and dried hands.
Water going through toilets in public restrooms results in the bacteria from human wastes entering the air. That same air is drawn into those wall-mounted electric hand dryers. These machines provide a nice warm home in which microbes can grow well, and cleaning the inside of these machines can be difficult, Zita says. “Freshly washed hands are getting dirtied with the bacteria that grow inside these machines. ” she adds.
The idea for her project came from the pandemic (流行病). People stayed at least one meter away from each other to limit the spread of the pandemic. Zita wanted to explore that idea with hand dryers. Would drying hands farther away from the hot-air dryer lessen the number of bacteria that fall back onto the skin?
The teen had four people wash and dry their hands in the restrooms. The participants washed with soap and water. After each washing, they dried their hands using one of three different methods. In some trials, they simply used paper towels. In the others, they used an electric hand dryer. Sometimes, they held their hands close to the machine, about 13 centimeters below it. At other times, they held their hands about 30 centimeters below the dryer. Each hand-drying condition was performed 20 times. Right after this drying, Zita swabbed their hands for bacteria. Then she placed these swabs on Petri dishes for three days in suitable growing conditions.
Afterward, all the Petri dishes were covered with bacteria. Fewer than 50 bacterial colonies (菌落), on average, turned up in each dish exposed to swabs from hands dried with paper towels or from hands held farther from the electric dryers. In contrast, more than 130 colonies, on average, grew in Petri dishes from hands held close to the hot-air dryers.
Zita was amazed by all the microbes in these dishes and realized they represented what covered people’s hands after using a hot-air dryer.
1.What did Zita Nguyen discover in her research?
A.Public restrooms are full of bacteria in the air. B.Swabbing freshly washed hands is unnecessary.
C.Hand dryers can infect clean hands with bacteria. D.Cleaning the inside of hot-air hand dryers is hard.
2.What was the inspiration for Zita’s project?
A.Her concern over the damage of bacteria to skins.
B.Safety distance for people during the pandemic.
C.Her curiosity about the structure of hand dryers.
D.The medicine of limiting the spread of the pandemic.
3.What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A.The process of conducting the experiment. B.The reason for hand-dryers having bacteria.
C.The desire for better drying hands machines. D.The result of drying hands with paper towels.
4.The number of bacterial colonies in the dishes is related to ________.
A.the application of hand dryers B.the lasting time of swabbing hands
C.the growing conditions for bacteria D.the functions of hot-air hand dryers
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.A 4.A
【导语】这是一篇说明文。16岁的Zita Nguyen通过实验发现,公共卫生间里的热风干手器可能将空气中的细菌重新吹到刚洗过的手上,而使用纸巾或远离干手器干燥则能减少这种细菌再污染的情况。
1.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“But the hot-air hand dryers found in many public restrooms seem to blow microbes (微生物) right back onto clean skin. That’s what 16-year-old Zita Nguyen found by swabbing (用拭子擦拭) people’s freshly washed and dried hands. (但是,在许多公共卫生间发现的热风干手器似乎可以将微生物吹回干净的皮肤上。这就是16岁的Zita Nguyen通过擦拭人们刚洗过和擦干的手而发现的。)”可知,Zita Nguyen在她的研究中发现公共卫生间里的热风干手器会把微生物吹到刚洗干净的手上,即干手器会让干净的手感染细菌。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“The idea for her project came from the pandemic (流行病). People stayed at least one meter away from each other to limit the spread of the pandemic. Zita wanted to explore that idea with hand dryers. Would drying hands farther away from the hot-air dryer lessen the number of bacteria that fall back onto the skin? (她的项目灵感来自疫情。人们彼此保持至少一米的距离,以限制疫情的传播。Zita想用干手器来探索这个想法。在离热风干手器更远的地方把手擦干会减少掉回皮肤上的细菌数量吗?)”可知,她的项目灵感来自于疫情期间人们为了限制疫情传播保持至少一米的安全距离。故选B。
3.主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“The teen had four people wash and dry their hands in the restrooms. The participants washed with soap and water. After each washing, they dried their hands using one of three different methods. In some trials, they simply used paper towels. In the others, they used an electric hand dryer. Sometimes, they held their hands close to the machine, about 13 centimeters below it. At other times, they held their hands about 30 centimeters below the dryer. Each hand-drying condition was performed 20 times. Right after this drying, Zita swabbed their hands for bacteria. Then she placed these swabs on Petri dishes for three days in suitable growing conditions. (这名青少年让四个人在卫生间洗手并擦干。参与者用肥皂和水清洗。每次洗手后,他们都会用三种不同的方法之一擦干手。在一些试验中,他们只是使用纸巾。在其他实验中,他们使用了热风干手器。有时,他们把手靠近机器,在机器下方约13厘米处。其他时候,他们把手放在烘干机下方约30厘米处。每种手部干燥条件进行20次。干燥后,Zita立即用拭子擦拭他们的手上是否有细菌。然后,她将这些拭子放在培养皿上,在合适的生长条件下放置了三天。)”可知,本段详细描述了Zita让四个人在卫生间洗手并采用不同方式擦干手,然后用拭子擦拭手上的细菌,最后将拭子放在培养皿中培养的过程,即进行实验的过程。故选A。
4.推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Fewer than 50 bacterial colonies (菌落), on average, turned up in each dish exposed to swabs from hands dried with paper towels or from hands held farther from the electric dryers. In contrast, more than 130 colonies, on average, grew in Petri dishes from hands held close to the hot-air dryers. (平均而言,每个接触过纸巾擦干的手或离热风干手器更远的手的拭子的盘子里出现的细菌菌落不到50个。相比之下,平均有130多个菌落在靠近热风干手器的培养皿中生长。)”可知,培养皿中细菌菌落的数量与使用干手器的方式(离干手器的距离)有关,也就是与干手器的使用有关。故选A。

(24-25高二上·广东深圳·期末)The 20-Minute Rule to Accomplish Any Task
Do you often struggle to begin tasks on schedule and find excuses to delay the start time? Do you choose to do something else instead of focusing on tasks that need immediate attention? 1 The basic idea is that if you have a task you don’t want to do, tell yourself you only need to do it for 20 minutes.
The 20-minute rule is very simple. Next time you dread doing something, set a timer for 20 minutes, and start working on whatever you’ve been putting off. When the timer goes off, reset it and take a 20-minute break to focus on a different task or do something else you’re more interested in. 2 After a few cycles of this, you’ll find you’ve built up strength and can keep working on the task you previously dreaded.
The 20-minute rule is designed to help you start developing new emotions in connection with a task. The thing is, the 20-minute rule is not actually meant to get the job done at all. 3
Often, once you set out, it becomes easier to continue, and you may find yourself willing to work beyond the initial 20 minutes. If you used the 20-minute rule to start studying for your test, after a few rotations (轮换) of the timer you would discover the task isn’t as painful as you thought. You may even start to enjoy it! 4 Try the 15-minute rule, the 10-minute rule, or the 5-minute rule. I’ve even used the 30-second rule. That’s right, 30 seconds.
Start small. Prove to yourself that you will not experience a high level of discomfort from doing the task you set out to do. Begin to rewrite the emotions you anticipate in relation to a certain task.
The reasons behind delay are primarily fear and the anticipation of pain. 5 Just set a timer, and get started.
A.It’s meant to help you get started.
B.But if the twenty-minute rule fails for you?
C.Whatever you fear, you don’t have to do it all at once.
D.Face your fears bravely and tackle the entire task in one go.
E.Consider the “20-minute rule” to motivate yourself to start.
F.Reset the timer when it goes off and return to your original task.
G.If the timer goes off and you’re still uninterested, switch tasks permanently.
【答案】1.E 2.F 3.A 4.B 5.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是通过采用20分钟规则来克服拖延症,有效启动并完成任务的策略与方法。
1.根据上文的“Do you often struggle to begin tasks on schedule and find excuses to delay the start time? Do you choose to do something else instead of focusing on tasks that need immediate attention?(你是否经常难以按时开始任务,并找借口推迟开始时间?你是否会转而选择做其他事情,而不是专注于那些需要立即处理的任务?)”可知,本文使用两个问题引出要介绍的话题,结合下文的“The basic idea is that if you have a task you don’t want to do, tell yourself you only need to do it for 20 minutes.(基本的想法是,如果你有一个不想做的任务,告诉自己你只需要做20分钟。)”可知,下文是对此空内容的进一步解释,所以,此空讲述的内容应是引出下文阐述的内容,E选项“Consider the “20-minute rule” to motivate yourself to start.(考虑使用“20分钟规则”来激励自己开始任务。)”中的“20-minute rule”与空后的“The basic idea”内容一致。故选E项。
2.根据上文的“The 20-minute rule is very simple.(“20分钟规则”很简单。)”可知,下文讲述的是“20分钟规则”的操作方法,结合空前的“When the timer goes off, reset it and take a 20-minute break to focus on a different task or do something else you’re more interested in.(当定时器响起时,重置它并休息20分钟,转而专注于另一个任务或者去做你更感兴趣的事情。)”以及下文的“After a few cycles of this, you’ll find you’ve built up strength and can keep working on the task you previously dreaded.(经过几个这样的循环后,你会发现自己的力量增强了,能够继续处理之前害怕的任务。)”可知,此空应是循环步骤中的最后一个环节,F选项“Reset the timer when it goes off and return to your original task.(当定时器响起时,重置它并返回到你的原始任务。)”讲述的内容为“20分钟规则”的操作过程中的最后一个环节,且下文的内容与此空内容衔接,符合语境。故选F项。
3.根据空格位于段尾可知,此处是对上文内容的进一步阐述,结合上文的“The 20-minute rule is designed to help you start developing new emotions in connection with a task. The thing is, the 20-minute rule is not actually meant to get the job done at all.(“20分钟规”旨在帮助你开始培养与任务相关的新情绪。实际上,这个规则的目的并不是真的要完成工作。)”可知,这项规则不是帮助完成工作,由此可推断,此空进一步讲述这项规则的真正目的是什么,A选项“It’s meant to help you get started.(它的目的是帮助你开始。)”可知,“20分钟规”则的主要目的是帮助你开始工作,而非完成整个任务,符合语境。故选A项。
4.根据上文的“If you used the 20-minute rule to start studying for your test, after a few rotations (轮换) of the timer you would discover the task isn’t as painful as you thought. You may even start to enjoy it!(如果你使用20分钟规则开始为考试复习,经过几次定时器的轮换后,你会发现这个任务并不像你想象的那么痛苦。你甚至可能开始享受它!)”可知,“20分钟规”起作用后,你会发现这个任务并不像你想象的那么痛苦,甚至会享受它,结合下文的“Try the 15-minute rule, the 10-minute rule, or the 5-minute rule. I’ve even used the 30-second rule. That’s right, 30 seconds.(尝试15分钟规则、10分钟规则或5分钟规则。我甚至使用过30秒规则。没错,就是30秒。)”可知,此处作者建议尝试其它的时间规则,由此可推断,此空应与空前内容为转折关系,从而引出下文,B选项“But if the twenty-minute rule fails for you?(但是如果“20分钟规”对你不起作用呢?)”与空前的内容为转折关系,且引出下文的其它时间规则,符合语境。故选B项。
5.根据上文的“The reasons behind delay are primarily fear and the anticipation of pain.(拖延背后的原因主要是恐惧和对痛苦的预期。)”以及下文的“Just set a timer, and get started.(只需设置一个定时器,然后开始行动。)”可知,克服拖延的原因主要是恐惧和对痛苦的预期,并建议设定一个定时器然后开始工作,C选项“Whatever you fear, you don’t have to do it all at once.(无论你害怕什么,你都不必一次性完成所有。)”中的fear与上文的fear为词汇重现,且进一步对上文内容进行解释,从而引出下文的建议,符合语境。故选C项。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述预制菜进入学校引发争议,家长担忧其质量和安全性,呼吁学校恢复自营食堂,确保学生午餐的新鲜可靠。
1.考查动词时态。句意:最近,“学校预制菜”引发了广泛的争论。根据时间状语Recently可知,此处应用现在完成时,且主语“premade food(预制菜)”为单数,助动词应用has。故填has led。
2.考查冠词。句意:在过去两年里,从餐馆到家庭餐桌的转变,迅速使预制菜进入大众消费市场。此处表示“一种从餐馆到家庭餐桌的转变”,shift为可数名词,此处表示泛指,同时该单词首字母为辅音音素,故用不定冠词a,同时该空置于句首,开头单词首字母大写。故填A。
3.考查非谓语动词。句意:这个问题最初是由江西几位中小学生的家长上传的视频引起的,他们表达了对当地中央厨房为学生提供的饭菜配送缓慢、质量差的担忧。句中were posted为谓语动词,设空处应填非谓语动词,此处使用不定式结构作目的状语。故填to express。
4.考查非谓语动词。句意同上。句中were posted为谓语动词,设空处应填非谓语动词,provide与逻辑主语meals之间为被动关系,故应用过去分词作后置定语。故填provided。
5.考查名词性从句。句意:一些家长开始质疑的是学校餐食的来源。设空处引导主语从句,从句中缺少宾语,指代物用what,同时该空置于句首,开头单词首字母大写。故填What。
6.考查定语从句。句意:他们很担心,其中一些人甚至把孩子吃的午饭带到了学校门口。设空处引导定语从句,先行词在从句中作介词of的宾语,表示“他们中的一些人”指代人,故应用whom。故填whom。
7.考查名词复数。句意:这些质疑也引发了人们对中小学中央厨房配餐可靠性的担忧。设空处应填名词作宾语,concern意为“担心的事”时为可数名词,此处表示复数意义。故填concerns。
8.考查副词。句意:因此,许多人呼吁学校恢复自营食堂。设空处应填副词修饰整个句子,作状语,consequently意为“因此”,同时该空置于句首,开头单词首字母大写。故填Consequently。
9.考查介词。句意同上。appeal to sb. to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“呼吁某人做某事”。故填to。
10.考查虚拟语气。句意:一些家长反对学校提供预制菜,并坚决建议孩子们应该保证吃到新鲜可靠的午餐。suggest后接宾语从句时,从句应用虚拟语气,即“should+动词原形”,should可省略。主语children与guarantee之间为被动关系,故应用被动语态。故填should be guaranteed/be guaranteed。

Healthy Lifestyle
Keeping healthy is a hot topic discussed by many common people, and having a healthy lifestyle is very important for us. So what is your healthy lifestyle?
Generally speaking, keeping a balanced diet and taking exercise regularly are recognized as a healthy lifestyle. But I have a different view. Traveling around instead of staying at home and chatting with others on line for a long time is a healthy lifestyle.
