[读与练·阅读限时训练三] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A [语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了一位100岁了依然热爱健身的老人安妮·谢泼德。 1.B　推理判断题。根据第一段“‘年龄只是一个数字’这句话有些人可能不同意，但对于健康的曾祖母安妮·谢泼德来说，没有什么比这更真实的了。”以及下文对安妮·谢泼德的详细介绍可知，第一段的目的是引出文章要介绍的人物安妮·谢泼德。故选B。 2.B　细节理解题。根据第二段最后三句“‘我很喜欢它，只要我能，我就会一直坚持下去。’她微笑着说：‘这是我现在生活的一部分——我丈夫去世了，现在我独自一人。健身房就是我的第二个家，如果没有他们，我会很失落的。’”可知，健身成为安妮·谢泼德生活中重要的一部分。故选B。 3.C　主旨大意题。根据第一段以及下文对安妮·谢泼德这位100岁了还在坚持健身的老人的详细介绍，可知本文主要介绍100岁还在健身锻炼的老人安妮·谢泼德，由此可知，C选项能够概括文章内容，适合作为文章标题。故选C。 B [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了英国最近出现的一个社会现象，那就是大家越来越喜欢冬泳了。同时，文章也给想要冬泳的人们提供了一些建议，例如寻找干净的水域、喝热饮等。 4.D　词义猜测题。根据第二段“Demand has taken us by surprise.”可知，一般冬季游泳的人数会比较少，而今年需求让我们感到意外，由此可以推测出，今年冬季游泳的人数明显比以往多；故根据后文“Over Christmas and New Year, in order to keep up with the demand from swimmers, the lido had to offer extra slots for people to dive in.”可知，圣诞节和新年期间，游泳的人很多，泳池不得不向客人提供额外的________让人们潜水。既然人很多，肯定是位置不够了，所以泳池必须提供额外的“位置”给客人。A.Volunteers志愿者；B.Solutions解决措施；C.Opportunities机会；D.Positions位置。故选D。 5.B　细节理解题。根据第三段“Cold­water swimming has grown in popularity in the UK over the past few years.”可知，在英国，冷水游泳越来越受人们的欢迎，即人们最近几年越来越喜欢在冷水中游泳了。故选B。 6.B　细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句“相反，他们建议多穿几层，喝点温暖的东西”可知，室外游泳协会建议人们从水里出来之后喝一些热饮。故选B。 7.A　主旨大意题。根据文章第一段至第二段中，作者先是提出英国人爱上冬泳的现象；文章第三至第五段主要给冬泳或在冷水中游泳提出一些建议；最后讲了英国的寒冷天气将继续持续下去。由此可以推测出，文章主要是讲了冬泳或冷水游泳因天气等原因深受大众欢迎这件事，即“人们喜欢冷水游泳”。故选A。 C [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了有效刷牙对于预防牙齿疾病的重要性，指出多数人刷牙方法不当，并提供了专家建议。同时指出了早晚刷牙的最佳时间，特别是睡前刷牙更为关键。 8.D　推理判断题。由第二段“在瑞典，一项研究发现，只有十分之一的人采用最佳刷牙方法。英国健康保险公司Bupa在对英国2 000人进行的一项调查中发现，近一半的受访者不知道如何正确刷牙。”可知，这一段通过提供瑞典和英国关于刷牙技巧掌握情况的研究数据，呈现了一个实际的背景，表明许多人并不知道如何正确地刷牙。故选D。 9.A　主旨大意题。第三段中Josefine Hirschfeld提到“这只是部分正确。清除牙齿上的细菌更为重要。”这些细菌，大约有700种不同的种类，以及其他微生物生长在每个人的口腔内。赫希菲尔德补充说：“它们生活在粘在牙齿和软组织上的黏性薄膜中。”“这种黏稠的薄膜不容易洗掉——它真的需要人工清洁。”这表明本段主要讲述的是去除牙齿上的细菌和黏附在牙齿上的黏膜，即正确清洁牙齿的方式。故选A。 10.C　词句猜测题。根据画线词所在段落“实际上，清除它的关键部位不是牙齿，而是牙龈。老实说，‘刷牙’有点a misnomer。‘想想刷你的牙龈，而不是刷牙齿本身，’赫希菲尔德说”Hirschfeld指出，“brushing your teeth”某种程度上是个误称，因为实际上我们应该关注的是刷牙龈，而不是刷牙齿本身。这表明“brushing your teeth”这一表达在一定程度上是不准确的。“misnomer”意为“误称、不恰当的名称”。故选C。 11.C　细节理解题。根据最后一段Nigel Carter解释说“你的唾液是你的自然保护机制，限制细菌生长和蛀牙。唾液流量在夜间会减少，所以在睡觉前清除所有的牙菌斑是至关重要的。”，这表明唾液流动有助于牙齿的保护，因为它能限制细菌生长和蛀牙。故选C。 Ⅱ.七选五 [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些有助于改善睡眠的健康习惯。 1.C　上文提到关于睡眠的问题，下文介绍了一些影响睡眠的习惯，C项“为了提高睡眠质量，养成健康的习惯很重要。”承上启下，符合语境，故选C。 2.B　空处位于段首，为本段主题句，根据本段内容可知，本段是介绍一些睡眠习惯对健康的影响，B项“许多与睡眠有关的虚假说法可能对我们的健康有害。”适合作为本段主题句，故选B。 3.G　上文提到，专家建议做一些不需要动脑的活动，并对此举例说明，比如叠衣服，G项“散步也被推荐为一种放松的活动，可以改善睡眠质量。”承接上文，进一步对“不需要动脑的活动。”举例，故选G。 4.E　根据上下文可知，此处是列举听音乐能改善睡眠的原因，E项“听音乐可以减轻你的压力，激发积极的情绪。”符合语境，故选E。 5.A　上文提到，打鼾会导致严重的健康问题，A项“如果这种情况持续存在，应寻求医疗建议。”承接上文，符合语境，故选A。 Ⅲ.语法填空 [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章描述了北京大学开设的一门关于运动与营养的课程，详细说明了课程特点、效果以及学生参与后的积极改变。 1.titled　考查非谓语动词。本句谓语动词为is，此处为非谓语动词，且a groundbreaking course与动词title之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，应用过去分词，作后置定语。故填titled。 2.which　考查定语从句。本空引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是a groundbreaking course ________“Physical Fitness Enhancement: Exercise and Diet，” ，指物，关系词代替先行词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which引导。故填which。 3.a　考查冠词。manner“方式”为可数名词，此处泛指“一种科学和健康的方式”，且scientific以辅音音素开头，应用不定冠词a。故填a。 4.has run/has been running　考查时态。根据for two years可知，run“运行”这个动作从过去开始一直持续到现在，并且可能还会继续下去，本空用现在完成进行时has been running，主语It为第三人称单数，助动词用has。故填has run/has been running。 5.truly　考查副词。本空用副词truly“真正地”，修饰动词helped，作状语。故填truly。 6.was classified　考查动词语态。设空处作谓语，根据in 2023可知，本句描述过去的动作和状态，故时态用一般过去时，且主语Hou Xiaoyang是classify“归类”动作的承受者，句子用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为第三人称单数，助动词用was。故填was classified。 7.becoming　考查非谓语动词。本句谓语为managed，此处为非谓语动词，he与become之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，本空用现在分词becoming，作结果状语，表示自然而然的结果。故填becoming。 8.recognition　考查名词。本空用名词recognition“认可”，为不可数名词，作has received的宾语。故填recognition。 9.into　考查介词。本空用介词into，构成短语integrate...into...“将……融入……之中”。故填into。 10.wiser　考查形容词比较级。本空用形容词比较级wiser“更明智的”，修饰名词lifestyle choices，与前面的more confidence形成并列，强调减肥课程带来的积极变化。故填wiser。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2024·广东东莞期末) “Age is just a number” is a saying that some people might disagree with, but for healthy and fit great­grandmother Anne Sheppard, nothing could be more true.

Until the lockdown for England was announced on 4 January, outdoor pools were allowed to remain open.“Demand has taken us by surprise.” said Murray Heining, a volunteer at the Woburn Lido.Over Christmas and New Year, in order to keep up with the demand from swimmers, the lido(露天游泳) had to offer extra slots for people to dive in. Cold­water swimming has grown in popularity in the UK over the past few years.A survey found that 7.5 million people in England had swum in outdoor pools, as well as lakes, rivers and the sea, in 2018.In some areas, such as the river Wharfe in Yorkshire, this new trend has prompted environmental groups to ensure that the water is cleared of pollution and clean enough for bathers. Some people make it a regular practice; others just enjoy a thrilling dip on Christmas Day, Boxing Day or New Year's Day.Every year around the UK, people are photographed jumping into icy water, often in fancy dress, and the recent festive period was no exception, despite freezing temperatures. The Outdoor Swimming Society classifies temperatures below 6℃ as “Baltic” and from 6－11 ℃ as “freezing”.They advise people to get in the water gradually，so as not to shock the body.Likewise, they recommend warming up gradually, and not rushing the process by leaping into a hot bath when you get out.Instead, they suggest layering up and drinking something warm. It wasn't just the water that was cold—many people experienced a white Christmas; snow fell in several counties including Yorkshire and Suffolk.Paul Davies, the UK Met Office's chief meteorologist (a scientist who studies the weather), said the forecast indicates “the likelihood of the cold conditions experienced recently continuing through January”. 4.Which of the following can replace the word “slots” in paragraph 2?

In Sweden, one study found as few as one in ten people practice the best brushing technique.The British health insurer Bupa found that almost half of respondents did not know how to brush their teeth properly in a survey of 2，000 people in the UK. So what exactly are most of us getting wrong, and how can we change our routine to make sure we brush our teeth effectively? Here's how to appropriately brush your teeth, according to experts.“Lots of patients understand that what they need to do is remove food remains，” says Josefine Hirschfeld, associate professor and specialist in restorative dentistry at the University of Birmingham.“That is only partially true.It's much more significant to remove bacteria from the teeth.” These bacteria, around 700 different species, and other microorganisms grow inside everyone's mouth.“They are living in the sticky film stuck to the teeth and also to the soft tissues，” adds Hirschfeld.“This sticky film can't be easily rinsed off—it really needs to be manually cleaned.” Actually, the crucial place to remove it from is not the teeth but the gumline (牙龈).Honestly, “brushing your teeth” is something of_a_misnomer.“Think of brushing your gumline, rather than the teeth themselves，” says Hirschfeld. Is it better to brush your teeth before or after breakfast? Nigel Carter, chief executive of the Oral Health Foundation in the UK, says，“It depends on what you've had to eat.More important than the breakfast question is the evening brush, which also has a simpler answer: it should always happen last thing before bed.” And he adds, “Your saliva (口水) is your natural protective mechanism, restricting bacterial growth and tooth decay.The saliva flow reduces overnight, so that's why it's vital that all the plaque (牙菌斑) is cleared away before you sleep.” 8.What's the main purpose of paragraph 2? A.To show a cultural difference. B.To compare two study results. C.To Introduce two wrong examples. D.To present a practical background. 9.What is the main idea of paragraph 3? A.The way to clean teeth correctly. B.The process to deal with food remains. C.The importance of keeping mouths clean. D.The consequence of getting into a routine. 10.What is your understanding of “a misnomer” in paragraph 4? A.A poor performance. B.A strange mindset. C.An inaccurate expression. D.An unnatural behavior. 11.What can we learn from Nigel Carter's reply? A.It's best to clean teeth before breakfast. B.It's easy to brush away the plaque before bed. C.The saliva flow contributes to the tooth preservation. D.Brushing at night is more effective than any other time.
