Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025·杭州高一检测)Exercise doesn't just help you lose fat.It could also promote healthier fat,according to a new study.“Living a physically active lifestyle makes our fat tissue(组织) a more accommodating place for extra energy under conditions when we do gain weight,” said senior study author Dr.Jeffrey Horowitz,professor of movement studies at the University of Michigan.
To see how exercise impacts fat tissue,researchers compared fat tissue just under the skin from two groups of 16 people with obesity:those who reported exercising at least four times a week for at least 2 years,and those who did not exercise regularly.Those who had a history of regular exercise had fat cells which showed characteristics that increase how much fat they can store.It is important that the fat tissue under the skin has a greater capacity(容量) so that if a person does gain weight,the increasing fat can go there instead of more dangerous places,such as the heart or liver,Dr.Horowitz added.“Unfortunately,most of us,even regular exercisers,gain weight as we get older.If we have a greater capacity to store that in our fat tissue,less of it will go to our liver,our heart,or other places that in excess(过量) can be really problematic.”
This study shows that researchers need to learn more about fat tissue and how it is connected to health and lifestyle changes,said Dr.Andrew Freeman,director of cardiovascular prevention and wellness at National Jewish Health in Denver.“Just being overweight may not be the whole story,” he said.“The tissue used to be understood as only functioning to store energy,but researchers are just starting to learn it has many functions,” Freeman said.“It makes sense to have some degree of fat so you have some reserve,but not to the point that the typical American has,” he added.
The key finding of the study is that healthier fat storage is just another good reason to live a physically active life.If you want to start,Freeman suggests trying out exercise first thing in the morning.

[参考范文]
In the past,I formed some unhealthy living habits.For example,I often skipped breakfast and liked eating junk food.Besides,I often stayed up late and took little physical exercise.As a result,I became too fat and often fell ill.
Luckily,I became aware of the harm caused by unhealthy living habits.First of all,I began to have a balanced diet.What's more,I took exercise actively every day.Finally,I developed the habit of going to bed early and getting up early.With two months passing,I recovered.
I suggest that other students get out of their unhealthy living habits as soon as possible,because health is more valuable than anything else.
Ⅳ.读后续写
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。
It was a Saturday afternoon.I was having lunch when Dad told me to get ready.I became unhappy.I don't like Saturdays!Even though it's a holiday for most children,it is not for me because I need to go to football club.
Many kids love sports,but I am not one of them.I prefer to stay at home and read.I don't like running at all,so I am a bad player in the team.The coach is tired of me and my teammates sometimes think I'm useless.
I have no idea how to play football.Usually,after practice my teammates would ask me to stay out of the game and I would just nod.
Last Thursday,the coach told us that we would be competing with some other team in a month and many people would come to see the game.Our opponents(对手) were the last winner and I froze(呆住) at the thought of the embarrassment I would face if the team lost because of me.
So I decided to practice hard for the match and I went to practice every single day.
After one month,when the game day came my teammates were reluctant(不愿意的) to take me in the team,and I also wished to stay away from the ground as well.But as luck would have it,they were short of one player and had no choice but to take me in the team.
Our team was named the Big Blues.There was a great cheer on our arrival in the field.I got very nervous.The game started and within two minutes,I got a blue card.By the time I was allowed back,the score was two goals for each team and the next goal would decide the winning team.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
When the ball came towards me,I froze.______________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
All my teammates ran towards me to lift me in the air.____________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
[参考范文]
Paragraph 1:
When the ball came towards me,I froze.My teammates were very tired and seemed worried.The opponents rushed towards me.Without thinking anymore,I found courage,and with all my might,I kicked the ball.The opponents didn't think highly of me,so they didn't think that I would be able to kick the ball so powerfully.As I kicked,the goalkeeper jumped towards the ball.As the ball hit the back of the net,I heard a big cheer.The Big Blues won the match!
Paragraph 2:
All my teammates ran towards me to lift me in the air.Since that day,I have gained some confidence and started to play better.My coach and teammates are also happy with me and they try to improve my skills every time I play.Now I have realized that I always liked this sport,but my problem with it had something to do with the lack of encouragement I got.Now I can build on my confidence and I've realized I can also play this sport very well.
