活传奇
来帮助我们选出"体育界的活传奇"吧。他们必须是所在运动项目上的大师,并且是他人学习的楷模。以下是我们首批遴选出的两位传奇人物。
郎平
作为一名运动员,郎平为她的祖国赢得了诸多荣誉。作为一名教练,她带领中国女子排球队在世界锦标赛和奥运会赛场上屡获殊荣。作为个人,郎平深受国内外球迷的喜爱。当中国队备战2015年世界杯时,她的决心受到了考验。由郎平一手打造的团队处于崩溃的边缘。最优秀的队员中有一人受伤了,而且队长也因心脏问题离队。损失两大主力队员是个巨大的挑战, 但是郎平没有气馁。她曾面临过各种困难,她知道只要她这些年轻的球员们齐心协力,就能获胜。两周之后,她们真成了世界冠军!紧接着在2016年,郎平又带领她的球队在巴西勇夺奥运金牌。
迈克尔·乔丹
当迈克尔·乔丹双脚离地的那一瞬间,时间似乎都凝固了。这位被称为"飞人乔丹"的球员用他那优雅的动作和跳跃改变了篮球运动。乔丹的球技令人赞叹,然而他所展示的精神力量使他成为一名独一无二的球星。在比赛的最后几秒钟,乔丹似乎总能找到制胜的方法。乔丹说,他的成功秘诀在于吸取失败的教训。"我可以接受失败,每个人都会遭遇失败;但我决不能接受不去尝试。"赛场上的失利教会他要更加努力地训练和决不放弃。在生活中,乔丹学会了与他人分享自己的成功。他在芝加哥创建的"男孩女孩俱乐部",从1996年至今一直在帮助年轻人。

积极向上
我总是努力想让自己看起来像电视上的那些苗条女孩,尽管我明知这不可能。我十分担心我的体重,也尝试了在网上看到的每一种新的减肥饮食方案。我尝试了无脂肪、低脂肪、5∶2(轻断食法)、只吃香蕉、不吃香蕉——我也几近疯狂。
后来,我看到一篇文章,说不要问自己"我胖吗?"而应该问"我健康吗?"我没有料到一词之差会产生这么大的影响!一旦我开始考虑健康而非体重,情况就开始改变了。我不会说"我想减掉三千克",我会说"我想在八分钟内跑完两千米"或"我希望能做30个俯卧撑"。我不再拒绝我喜爱的食物,而是在自己的三餐中增加健康的食物。我仍然能偶尔吃个汉堡,但我会加上一份沙拉或一个苹果。
最后,我不再拿自己跟女演员和模特相比,不再寻找自己的脸蛋或身材不美的地方。相反,我把对自己满意的地方罗列出来。通过积极看待自我和自己的身体,我变得更加快乐,也更加健康了。

活传奇
来帮助我们选出"体育界的活传奇"吧。他们必须是所在运动项目上的大师,并且是他人学习的楷模。以下是我们首批遴选出的两位传奇人物。
郎平
作为一名运动员,郎平为她的祖国赢得了诸多荣誉。作为一名教练,她带领中国女子排球队在世界锦标赛和奥运会赛场上屡获殊荣。作为个人,郎平深受国内外球迷的喜爱。当中国队备战2015年世界杯时,她的决心受到了考验。由郎平一手打造的团队处于崩溃的边缘。最优秀的队员中有一人受伤了,而且队长也因心脏问题离队。损失两大主力队员是个巨大的挑战, 但是郎平没有气馁。她曾面临过各种困难,她知道只要她这些年轻的球员们齐心协力,就能获胜。两周之后,她们真成了世界冠军!紧接着在2016年,郎平又带领她的球队在巴西勇夺奥运金牌。
迈克尔·乔丹
当迈克尔·乔丹双脚离地的那一瞬间,时间似乎都凝固了。这位被称为"飞人乔丹"的球员用他那优雅的动作和跳跃改变了篮球运动。乔丹的球技令人赞叹,然而他所展示的精神力量使他成为一名独一无二的球星。在比赛的最后几秒钟,乔丹似乎总能找到制胜的方法。乔丹说,他的成功秘诀在于吸取失败的教训。"我可以接受失败,每个人都会遭遇失败;但我决不能接受不去尝试。"赛场上的失利教会他要更加努力地训练和决不放弃。在生活中,乔丹学会了与他人分享自己的成功。他在芝加哥创建的"男孩女孩俱乐部",从1996年至今一直在帮助年轻人。

现在完成进行时
用法详解
现在完成
进行时
构成
have/has+been+动词-ing
用法
表示从过去某时开始一直持续到现在的动作。这个动作可能刚刚停止,也可能继续下去。此时,谓语动词为延续性动词。

We've been discussing the matter several times this year.我们今年已数次讨论过那件事。
My mom has been saying that twenty times. 那话我妈已经说了20遍了。(不耐烦)

现在完成时
表示动作已完成,强调对现在的影响或产生的结果。
现在完成进行时
表示动作一直在进行,可能刚刚结束,也可能继续下去,强调动作的持续性。
1.—You are a great swimmer.

2.the 考查冠词。the Olympics指“奥运会”,故用定冠词the。
3.determination 考查名词。 设空处前有形容词性物主代词her和形容词strong修饰,故填名词determination。
4.Facing 考查现在分词。 4 (face) the challenge that her team was falling apart(面对她的团队要瓦解的挑战)与she didn't give 5 (她没有……)之间无连词,故设空处应用非谓语动词作状语。提示词face与句子主语she之间为主动关系,应用现在分词。注意句首的单词首字母大写。故填Facing。
5.up 考查固定短语。句意:面对她的团队要瓦解的挑战,她没有放弃。give up为固定短语,意为“放弃”,故填up。
6.known 考查过去分词。第一个逗号前句子成分完整,且空格前只有逗号,没有连词,故设空处应填非谓语动词。提示词know与Michael Jordan之间为被动关系,故填过去分词known。

8.what 考查连接代词。句意:他的技能令人赞叹,但是使他独一无二的是他所展现的精神力量。该句为由but连接的并列复合句,后一个分句中的谓语动词为was,故“ 8 made him unique”为主语从句且从句中缺主语,由后面的表语the mental strength可知这里指代事物,故填what。
9.failures 考查名词复数。设空处由many修饰,故填复数名词failures。这里表示从很多失败的经历中学习,failure 表示具体的失败的人或事物时,为可数名词。
10.has been helping 考查时态和主谓一致。设空处位于关系代词which后,提示词为动词,故应为定语从句中的谓语。根据语境和时间状语since 1996可知,该俱乐部自1996年开始就一直在帮助年轻人。help表示的动作从1996年一直延续到现在,并且有可能还会继续下去,应用现在完成进行时。which引导定语从句,代替the Boys and Girls Club(单数意义)在从句中作主语,故从句谓语动词用单数形式,故填has been helping。
七.语法填空
Before the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games, visually impaired(视力受损的) Chinese runner Liu Cuiqing put a lot of stress on 1 (she) to do well. Finally, she made it. She won two gold medals with the help of her sighted guide Xu Donglin and brought honour and glory for China.

语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道。有视力障碍的跑步运动员刘翠青克服身体缺陷,在领跑员徐冬林的帮助下,在残奥会上获得了金牌。
1.herself 考查反身代词。这里指视力受损的中国赛跑运动员刘翠青为了表现好给自己施加了很多压力。设空处位于介词on之后,提示词she指代的就是该句主语Liu Cuiqing,表示她给她自己施加压力,故使用反身代词herself。
2.that/which 考查定语从句。设空处前面句子成分完整,表示“2010年她加入了国家运动队”,后面为谓语和宾语,表示“由残疾人组成”,故判断设空处引导定语从句,并在从句中作主语,指代先行词 the national athletics team(国家运动队),故填that或which。
3.a 考查冠词。as a blind person表示“作为一个盲人”,blind的发音以辅音音素开头,故填a。

课文解析
)
积极向上
我总是努力想让自己看起来像电视上的那些苗条女孩,尽管我明知这不可能。我十分担心我的体重,也尝试了在网上看到的每一种新的减肥饮食方案。我尝试了无脂肪、低脂肪、5∶2(轻断食法)、只吃香蕉、不吃香蕉——我也几近疯狂。
后来,我看到一篇文章,说不要问自己"我胖吗?"而应该问"我健康吗?"我没有料到一词之差会产生这么大的影响!一旦我开始考虑健康而非体重,情况就开始改变了。我不会说"我想减掉三千克",我会说"我想在八分钟内跑完两千米"或"我希望能做30个俯卧撑"。我不再拒绝我喜爱的食物,而是在自己的三餐中增加健康的食物。我仍然能偶尔吃个汉堡,但我会加上一份沙拉或一个苹果。
最后,我不再拿自己跟女演员和模特相比,不再寻找自己的脸蛋或身材不美的地方。相反,我把对自己满意的地方罗列出来。通过积极看待自我和自己的身体,我变得更加快乐,也更加健康了。

五.课文语法填空
Kayla was a girl 1 always wanted to be like those slim girls on TV, even though she knew it was just a dream. She worried about her weight and tried every diet she read about online, such as no⁃fat, low⁃fat, 5∶2, only bananas, no bananas, and she almost 2 (go)crazy.
Then one day in an article, she saw the words “Instead of asking ‘Am I fat?’, I should be asking ‘Am I fit?’”, which made much difference to her. Once she started thinking about 3 (fit) rather than weight, the changes 4 (actual)began. Instead of saying “I want to lose three kilos”, she would say “I want to run two kilometers in eight minutes” 5 “I want to be able to do 30 push⁃ups”. Rather than cutting out her favorite foods, she added healthy foods 6 her meals. For example, she could still have a burger sometimes, but she added a salad or an apple. Finally, Kayla stopped 7 (compare) herself with those actresses and models. Instead, she became positive about 8 (she) and her body through making 9 list of the things she liked about herself. She also became both happier and 10 (healthy).
1.who/that 考查定语从句。设空处前面句子内容完整(Kayla是一个女孩),后面内容缺主语(总想像电视上那些苗条的女孩一样),由此推测设空处引导定语从句,代替先行词girl在从句中作主语,先行词指人,故用who或that。
2.went 考查时态。由and前面的分句中的“worried about her weight and tried every diet”可知这里应用一般过去时,故填went。
3.fitness 考查名词。设空处前有介词,故此处填名词fitness。think about fitness表示“考虑健康”。
4.actually 考查副词。设空处前后内容意思完整(the changes began),提示词为形容词,故填它的副词形式actually作状语,意为“事实上”。
5.or 考查连词。设空处前文“我想在8分钟内跑两公里”和后文“我希望能做30个俯卧撑”为选择关系,即“她会说……或……”,故填or。
6.to 考查介词。add sth. to sth.为固定搭配,意为“把某物加到某物里”,故填介词to。
7.comparing 考查动名词。stop doing sth.为固定搭配,意为“停止做某事”,故填动名词comparing。句意:最终,Kayla不再拿自己与那些女演员和模特儿进行比较。
8.herself 考查反身代词。设空处前有介词about,故此处作宾语,又因主句主语是she,提示词也是she,主语和宾语为同一个人,故填反身代词herself,表示“她变得积极地看待自己”。
9.a 考查冠词。make a list of...表示“做一个……的清单”,故填a。
10.healthier 考查形容词比较级。此处and连接两个并列成分,因为happier为形容词的比较级,故此处也应填形容词比较级healthier。
六.书面表达

My favourite sport
My favourite sport
When it comes to my favourite sport, I'd say it's table tennis.
When I was eight, I seldom did sports and spent most of my spare time on screens, which made my parents worried. Then they decided to do something. My father, who had played table tennis for more than twenty years, taught me how to play it. Gradually I developed great interest in it. Now I often play table tennis with my friends after school. Last week I took part in the table tennis competition held in my school and took second place.
I will keep on playing table tennis not only for my fitness but also for the confidence it brings me.
