课时作业(十八)　选择性必修第二册　Unit 2　Sports culture 一、阅读理解 Ida Keeling had grown up poor in Harlem and done hard，grinding work in factories during the Great Depression.She had lost her husband early to a heart attack，and two of her four children—both of her sons—died in accidents.Keeling had sunk into a deep depression.Her health had begun to slide and her daughter，Cheryl，began to worry that she soon might be losing her mother as well. Keeling's daughter is a lifelong athlete.That may be what would pull her mother out from under her dark cloud.She suggested a run.Not just a jog around the block，but an official run.At the time，Ida Keeling was 67. It had been decades since Keeling had done any running，and she would later recall that the first “mini­run” was wonderful.“I just threw off all my bad memories，” Keeling says.She hasn't stopped running since，and it's no longer the difficulty it was during that first meet.Since then，Keeling has set records for 60 meters in the 9599 age group，and in 100 meters for the over 100 group.“I was just exercising，” she says，“and now I'm all over the world.” When she's not running，she's working out.She's in the gym three to four days a week，running，working out with weights and pedaling on the exercise bike—and even exercising while she's cooking.Part of her healthy diet is an occasional dose of red wine mixed with her coffee or water to aid blood circulation.She's written a book about her experiences，titled Can't Nothing Bring Me Down：Chasing Myself in the Race Against Time.Her philosophy is also fit for a runner：“Every day is another day forward.” 1．Why did Keeling start to run at an old age? A．She wanted her daughter getting out of dark cloud. B．She wanted to learn from her daughter. C.Her daughter Cheryl persuaded her to do so. D.Her daughter Cheryl wanted her to be a lifelong runner. 2．How did Keeling feel about her first “mini­run”？ A．Pleased. B．Curious. C．Annoyed. D．Proud. 3．What can we infer about Keeling from the last paragraph? A．She used to live a hard life. B．She spends much time writing. C.She is very fond of cooking. D．She is very active in sports. 4．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Early Hard Life of Keeling B.The Benefit of Running for Keeling's Later Life C．The Significance of Caring for Old People D．Every Day Is Precious for Old People [语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Keeling在67岁时开始尝试跑步的故事。跑步不仅锻炼了她的身体，而且使她忘记了自己的烦恼。 1．C　[解析]细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Keeling's daughter is a lifelong athlete.That may be what would pull her mother out from under her dark cloud.She suggested a run.(Keeling的女儿是终身运动员。这也许就是能把她母亲从乌云下拉出来的东西。她建议跑步。)”可知，Keeling的女儿认为跑步能让母亲从悲伤中解脱出来，因此她建议母亲跑步。故选C。 2．A　[解析]推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“It had been decades since Keeling had done any running，and she would later recall that the first ‘mini­run’ was wonderful.(Keeling已经有几十年没有跑步了，她后来回忆说，第一次‘迷你跑步’太棒了。)”可知，在Keeling的第一次迷你跑中，她感到很愉悦。故选A。 3．D　[解析]推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“When she's not running，she's working out.She's in the gym three to four days a week，running，working out with weights and pedaling on the exercise bike—and even exercising while she's cooking.(不跑步的时候，她就在健身。她每周在健身房锻炼三到四天，她跑步、举重、骑健身自行车，甚至在做饭的时候锻炼。)”可推断，Keeling在运动上是非常积极的。故选D。 4．B　[解析]标题概括题。根据全文可知，文章主要讲述Keeling晚年开始跑步，跑步给她带来了意想不到的好处。所以B项“跑步对Keeling晚年生活的好处”适合作文章标题。故选B。 二、七选五阅读 People refer to never forgetting how to ride a bike or throw a baseball as examples of “muscle memory”，the result of a motor learning.1. It is a phenomenon that previously trained muscles acquire strength after a period of disuse. Previous research has shown that the changes actually persist in the muscles themselves.In one study of mice，the results suggest that after nuclei in muscle cells multiply in response to an overload of training，those extra nuclei aren't lost during subsequent periods of inactivity.They are retained(保留)，essentially waiting to be reactivated.If you fell off the fitness wagon(马车) during the pandemic，don't be frustrated.Once you have got additional nuclei，you are banking the capacity.2. In fact，a recent study revealed that less than eight weeks of retraining were needed to regain your former fitness.It depends on how fit you were initially，how long the layoff was，how old you are and how long you'd been exercising. 3． It means you still have a distinct advantage when it comes to regaining your former level of fitness.And the principle applies to both resistance training and endurance training.The best way to regain your muscle memory is to start at a level below what you were accustomed to doing，and then gradually increase in terms of duration，frequency，then intensity.4. Ultimately，muscle memory is a payoff for all the past work you put into learning a sport.5. You will never know how much muscle memory you may have until you start training again. A．The best way to tap into it is to “get back on the horse”． B．Physiologists，on the other hand，define it in a different way. C.This convinces the researchers that muscle memory may not be long­lasting. D.That is to say，we can do the sports automatically without conscious thought. E．It is generally safe to increase these elements by 5 percent every week or two. F．It is evident that the more you exercise，the more muscle memory savings you will have. G.All this news about muscle memory is encouraging for those who fell off the fitness scheme. [语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了运动中肌肉记忆这一现象。肌肉记忆是你过去为学习某项运动所付出的所有努力的回报，你锻炼得越多，你的肌肉记忆就会储存得越多。即使健身中断，当重新健身时，还是有明显的优势的。 1．B　[解析]下文“It is a phenomenon that previously trained muscles acquire strength after a period of disuse.(它是一种以前训练过的肌肉在一段时间不使用后还可获得力量的效应。)”是肌肉记忆的定义。B项“Physiologists，on the other hand，define it in a different way.(另一方面，生理学家则用不同的方式来定义它。)”引出下文，其中it代指上文中的muscle memory。故选B。 2．A　[解析]上文“Once you have got additional nuclei，you are banking the capacity.(一旦你有了额外的核心，你就储存了能量。)”介绍有了额外的核心你就会储存能量。下文“In fact，a recent study revealed that less than eight weeks of retraining were needed to regain your former fitness.(事实上，最近的一项研究表明，不到八周的再训练就能恢复你以前的健康。)”介绍要通过再训练来挖掘自己的能量。A项“The best way to tap into it is to ‘get back on the horse’．(进入这种状态的最好方法是‘重新开始’。)”承上启下，符合语境。故选A。 3．G　[解析]下文“It means you still have a distinct advantage when it comes to regaining your former level of fitness.(这意味着当谈到恢复你以前的健康水平时，你仍然有明显的优势。)”介绍你仍然有明显的优势恢复到之前的水平。G项“All this news about muscle memory is encouraging for those who fell off the fitness scheme.(所有这些关于肌肉记忆的新闻对那些放弃健身计划的人来说都是鼓舞人心的。)”与后文相照应，符合语境。故选G。 4．E　[解析]上文“The best way to regain your muscle memory is to start at a level below what you were accustomed to doing，and then gradually increase in terms of duration，frequency，then intensity.(恢复肌肉记忆的最好方法是从低于你习惯的水平开始，然后逐渐增加持续时间、频率和强度。)”介绍恢复肌肉记忆的具体方法。E项“It is generally safe to increase these elements by 5 percent every week or two.(一般来说，每周或每两周增加5%的这些元素是安全的。)”仍为恢复肌肉记忆的具体方法，符合语境。故选E。 5．F　[解析]上文“Ultimately，muscle memory is a payoff for all the past work you put into learning a sport.(最终，肌肉记忆是你过去为学习一项运动所付出的所有努力的回报。)”介绍肌肉记忆和你之前的付出的关系。结合选项，F项“It is evident that the more you exercise，the more muscle memory savings you will have.(很明显，你锻炼得越多，你的肌肉记忆就会储存得越多)”继续解释肌肉记忆与你之前的锻炼的关系。故选F。 三、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。 Ballet was a way of life in Kelly's family.Her elder sister Serena was now dancing at a top college.Though Kelly's mom always wanted her to follow in her sister's footsteps and Kelly herself was good at ballet，her love for ballet had faded years before，and she was eager for a new challenge. One day at school，as Kelly left the dance studio，she walked past the gym，fascinated by boxers(拳击手) training inside the boxing ring.She was deeply impressed by how hard they hit and how fast they moved.In fact，she'd long been attracted to boxing. She pulled a piece of paper from her backpack.On the familiar Oakwood High School Club Sign­up Sheet was the phrase：BOXING CLUB TRYOUT(选拔).That was what Kelly really wanted to do.She knew her mom had high expectations for her when it came to ballet.Tired of trying to keep up with her sister，Kelly was ready to carve her own path. The next day，she gathered her courage and told Serena about her new passion.At first，Serena didn't understand and thought she was just joking.But when she saw Kelly was serious，she replied，“You know Mom wants you to be a ballet dancer，right？Besides，boxing is only for boys，and you're so good at ballet.Lean into your strength，Kelly.” “But this is where I want to put my strength，” Kelly insisted，“and what exactly does ‘only for boys’ mean，anyway？Boxing is a sport for everyone！” Gradually，touched by her determination and passion，Serena began to understand and support her.Kelly could feel it.Her sister was going to respect her decision，no matter what.But that was nothing compared to the preparations for the tryout，where she was required to show her footwork and punching(拳打) abilities with other candidates.Boxing didn't come natural to Kelly，but she had made up her mind to stick with her choice. 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： Then Kelly began her training for the tryout，keeping it a secret from her mom. Paragraph 2： The following Monday，results of the boxing tryout were posted. [参考范文] Paragraph 1： Then Kelly began her training for the tryout，keeping it a secret from her mom.Ballet was the Kelly way of life，so only her sister knew about boxing，and her mother would have stopped it.Boxing didn't come naturally to Kelly—she just came to love it，so she often got knocked down during training and suffered.Now that you've made a choice，you can't give up.She has an unyielding spirit and must participate in the qualifiers. Paragraph 2： The following Monday，results of the boxing tryout were posted. Kelly was afraid to look at the published list for fear of losing out.Then a woman tapped her on the shoulder and told her she had been chosen.The voice sounded familiar to her.It was her mother.Her sister stood by smiling.Before she knew it，her mother told her she had known she had been boxing.Her mother supported her very much.Now through the qualifiers，the family happily went home to celebrate.This really echoes the saying，“Interest is the best teacher.” 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
