①A lot of people take up dancing as a hobby after school. In fact, dancing has been thought to be one of the best exercises to get over the bad feelings in recent years. The reasons are as follows.
②Firstly, dancing helps our bodies produce much endorphin (内啡肽), a chemical (化学物质) that makes us feel relaxed and happy.
③Although just listening to music or doing sports can cheer us up, mixing them together gives better results. In a study, a group of German scientists tested some patients under three conditions: a group dancing with music, a group just listening to music, and a group riding bikes without music. The results showed that the first group were the least depressed (沮丧的).
④Secondly, dancing can bring people together. Tango, Latin or other social dancing require us to move with others, which can improve our sense of social connection.
⑤Lastly, dancing helps people get over bad feelings. Studies have found that depression often has to do with sadness about the past or worries about the future. However, dancing not only helps you pay attention to the present, but also frees your mind and body for a while.
⑥Dancing is really a helpful way to combat bad feelings. It can take any form, whether it’s moving around the house to a song or going out dancing with friends. So, why not dance right now?
27. Which group were the least depressed according to the study?
A. A group dancing with music. B. A group talking to friends.
C. A group riding bikes without music. D. A group just listening to music.
28. What can we know from this passage?
A. Endorphin makes people excited and nervous.
B. Dancing only helps you pay attention to the past.
C. Dancing can improve our sense of social connection.
D. Dancing is the best exercise to get over bad feelings.
29. The underlined word “combat” means “________” in the last paragraph.
A. receive B. guess C. decide D. fight
30. What would be the best structure (结构) of the passage?
A. B. C. D.

篇章结构题。文章第①段总述跳舞是克服不良情绪的最佳运动之一并引出原因;第②-⑤段分别从三个方面阐述原因;第⑥段总结跳舞是对抗不良情绪的有效方式,结构为总-分-总。故选B。

36. 看着我收集的邮票一天天变多,我非常开心。
I’m very happy to see the stamps I collect increasing ________.
【答案】day by day
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文提示可知,缺少“一天天”,“一天天”对应的英文短语是“day by day”,在句中作状语,修饰动词increasing,说明邮票数量增加的过程。故填day by day。
37. 没有什么比在我的收藏中增加一张邮票更能使我满意的了。
Nothing can ________ me more than adding a stamp to my collection.
【答案】satisfy
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文提示可知,缺少“使……满意”,“使……满意”对应的英文动词是satisfy,在情态动词can后用动词原形。故填satisfy。
38. 我经常花几个小时在房间里认真地整理我的藏品。
I often spend hours ________ my collection in my room.
【答案】carefully tidying up
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文提示可知,缺少“认真地整理”,“整理”对应的英文短语是“tidy up”,spend time doing sth表示“花费时间做某事”,所以tidy用动名词形式tidying;“认真地”对应的英文是carefully,修饰动词短语tidying up。故填carefully tidying up。
39. 它们中的一些是非常有价值的国际邮票。
Some of them are very valuable ________ stamps
【答案】international
【解析】
【详解】句子要表达“国际邮票”,“国际的”英文是“international”,它是形容词,可修饰名词“stamps”,符合“形容词 + 名词”的英语表达结构,用来准确描述邮票的属性。故填international。
40. 我通过集邮了解到很多不同的文化。
I have learned about a lot of different ________ by collecting stamps.
【答案】cultures
【解析】
【详解】“文化”的英文是“culture”,它作可数名词时,常用来表示不同国家、群体等的具体文化类型。句中“a lot of different(许多不同的)”后接可数名词复数,“culture”的复数形式是“cultures”,这样能准确表达“很多不同的文化”这一含义,使句子语法正确、语义通顺。故填cultures。

You might be wondering about the scar. I got it when I fell off my bike. I see it as a cool mark now.” Ella listened in surprise. How could the girl be so confident?
During lunchtime, Ella was sitting at her usual table. Doris walked over to join Ella. Ella couldn’t believe such a confident girl would like to sit with her. She worked up the courage (勇气) to share what was troubling her. “Hug yourself!” said Doris. Hearing that, Ella felt the weight lift off her shoulders.

①A lot of people take up dancing as a hobby after school. In fact dancing has been thought to be one of the best exercises to get over the bad feelings in recent years. The reasons are as follows.
②Firstly, dancing helps our bodies produce much endorphin (内啡肽), a chemical (化学物质) that makes us feel relaxed and happy.
③Although just listening to music or doing sports can cheer us up, mixing them together gives better results. In a study, a group of German scientists tested some patients under three conditions: a group dancing with music, a group just listening to music, and a group riding bikes without music. The results showed that the first group were the least depressed (沮丧的).
④Secondly dancing can bring people together. Tango, Latin or other social dancing require us to move with others, which can improve our sense of social connection.
⑤Lastly, dancing helps people get over bad feelings. Studies have found that depression often has to do with sadness about the past or worries about the future. However, dancing not only helps you pay attention to the present, but also frees your mind and body for a while.
⑥Dancing is really a helpful way to combat bad feelings. It can take any form, whether it’s moving around the house to a song or going out dancing with friends. So, why not dance right now?
27. Which group were the least depressed according to the study?
