It was finally reintroduced at the 1924 Amsterdam Games, and again burned in 1932. Carl Diem, chairman of the organizing committee for the 1936 Berlin Games, proposed that the flame be lit in Greece and transported to Berlin via a torch relay. The idea was adopted(采纳) and continued at every Olympic Games since 1952. The flame is lit at the ancient site of Olympia by the natural rays of the sun reflected off a curved mirror. It is lit at a ceremony by women dressed in robes resembling those worn in ancient times, who then pass it to the first relay runner. The Olympic motto “Citius, altius, fortius” is a Latin phrase meaning “swifter, higher, stronger”, which Baron de Coubertin borrowed from Father Henri Martin Dideon of Paris. Dideon was headmaster of Arcueil College, and used the phrase to describe the athletic achievements of students at the school. He had previously been at the Albert Le Grand school, where the Latin words were carved in stone above the main entrance. The Olympic oath “In the name of all competitors, I promise that we shall take part in these Olympic Games, respecting and abiding by the rules that govern them, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honor of our teams.” Written by Baron de Coubertin, the oath is taken by an athlete from the host nation while holding a corner of the Olympic flag. The athletes’ oath was first taken by Belgian fencer Victor Born at the 1920 Antwerp Games. A judge from the host country also speaks the oath, with slightly different wording. 【译文欣赏】 奥林匹克圣火 奥林匹克圣火是古代奥运会传承下来的象征，最初在宙斯祭坛上燃烧，贯穿整个赛会。它于 1924 年阿姆斯特丹奥运会时再次被引入，并在 1932 年再次燃起。 1936 年柏林奥运会的组织委员会主席卡尔·迪姆提议，圣火应从希腊点燃，并通过火炬传递的方式运往柏林。这一想法被采纳，并在 1952 年后的每届奥运会中延续下来。圣火在奥林匹克遗址由太阳的自然光线反射从一个弯曲的镜面中点燃。在仪式上，由身着类似古代服饰的女性点燃圣火，然后将其传递给第一位火炬手。 奥林匹克格言 “Citius， altius， fortius” 是一个拉丁语短语，意思是“更快、更高、更强”，这是巴伦·德·库伯林从巴黎的亨利·马丁·迪迪翁神父那里借来的。迪迪翁是阿克维尔学院的校长，他用这个短语来描述该校学生的体育成就。他之前在阿尔伯特·勒格朗学校任教，那里在主入口上方刻有这些拉丁语单词。 奥林匹克誓言 “以所有参赛者的名义，我承诺我们将参加这些奥运会，严格遵守其规则，秉持体育精神，为体育事业争光，为我们的团队增光。”这段誓言由主办国的一名运动员在手持奥林匹克会旗一角的姿势下宣读。运动员们的誓言最早由比利时击剑运动员维克多·博因在 1920 年安特卫普奥运会上宣读。主办国的一名法官也会宣读同样的誓言，但用词略有不同。 【词汇积累】 competition [ˌkɑːmpəˈtɪʃ(ə)n] n. 竞争；比赛 propose [prəˈpoʊz] v.提议；建议 reflect [rɪˈflekt] v.反射 resemble [rɪˈzemb(ə)l] v.像，与……相似 achievement [əˈtʃiːvmənt] n.成绩；成就 previously [ˈpriːviəsli] adv.以前地，先前地 sportsmanship [ˈspɔːrtsmənʃɪp] n. 体育精神；运动员风范 slightly [ˈslaɪtli] adv. 稍微；轻微地 【知识拓展】 奥林匹克格言：更高、更快、更强——更团结，这是奥林匹克精神最广为人知的表述，它体现了不断超越、追求卓越的核心思想。 1. 更高（Citius）： 指在竞技水平、个人成就上的不断突破，挑战人类的身体极限。 2. 更快（Altius）： 代表着速度与效率的追求，永不满足于现状。 3. 更强（Fortius）： 不仅指身体的强健，更指精神的坚强、意志的顽强。 4. 更团结（Together）： 这是2021年新增的格言，反映了新时代的需要。它强调在面临全球性挑战时，人类需要通过体育团结起来，共享欢乐与共度难关。 【词汇延伸】 carried over  延续；保留 reflect off 反射；反映 高考真题链接 (2020·全国一卷·阅读理解C篇) Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem. Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass. Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says. According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says. According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice. 28．Why are race walkers conditioned athletes? A．They must run long distances. B．They are qualified for the marathon. C．They have to follow special rules. D．They are good at swinging their legs. 29．What advantage does race walking have over running? A．It’s more popular at the Olympics. B．It’s less challenging physically. C．It’s more effective in body building. D．It’s less likely to cause knee injuries. 30．What is Dr. Norberg’s suggestion for someone trying race walking? A．Getting experts’ opinions. B．Having a medical checkup. C．Hiring an experienced coach. D．Doing regular exercises. 31．Which word best describes the author’s attitude to race walking? A．Skeptical. B．Objective. C．Tolerant. D．Conservative. 【答案】28．C 29．D 30．A 31．B 【分析】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了竞走相比跑步有诸多的优势，但是之前受过伤的人，要想从事这样运动要谨慎，最好咨询专家的建议。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段“But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact with the ground at all times.”可知，但这项运动的规则要求竞走者的膝盖在摆动腿的大部分时间保持伸直，一只脚始终与地面接触。由此可知，竞走运动员是需要具备某些条件的运动员是因为运动员需要遵守特殊的规则。故选C项。 29．细节理解题。根据最后一段“As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers.”可知，一些与跑步有关的损伤，比如跑步者的膝盖，在竞走者中并不常见。由此可知，竞走与跑步相比的优势是不太可能导致膝盖受伤。故选D项。 30．细节理解题。根据最后一段Dr. Norberg说的话“In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique(事实上，任何想尝试竞走的人都应该首先咨询教练或有经验的竞走运动员，学习适当的技巧。)”可知，Dr. Norberg建议想尝试竞走的人征询专家的建议。故选A项。 31．推理判断题。根据第一段“Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem.”可知，研究表明，竞走和跑步一样有很多健身益处，而且它还很少导致受伤。不过，它也有自己的问题。由此判断出作者对于竞走的态度是客观的。故选B项。 命题特点 词义猜测题是高考英语阅读理解中的常见题型。主要考查考生根据上下文语境来推测单词、短语或句子含义的能力。在阅读过程中，考生难免会遇到一些生词或具有特殊含义的词汇，这种题型就是检验考生能否通过文章的线索和逻辑关系来理解这些词汇的真实意思。它不仅要求考生有一定的词汇量，还需要具备较强的语境理解能力。高考英语对于词义猜测题的考查，每年都有一到两题。 命题规律1超纲词2.熟悉词汇的生僻含义 词义猜测题解题思维 1. 定位原文线索：找出含目标词的句子及前后句，圈定同义解释、对比关系（but/while）、举例（such as）或因果逻辑。 2. 分析选项差异：对比选项间细微语义差别（如程度、褒贬、适用范围）。 剔除拼写/发音相似的干扰项。 3. 代入验证： 将选项替换目标词，检查是否破坏原文逻辑或违背主旨。 注意：核心思维：永远不要孤立地看单词！一切线索都隐藏在上下文中。 推理判断题干扰项特征 1.近义混淆 ：选项中的词与正确答案含义相近但不同，或在特定语境下不适用。 2.反义干扰 ：选项直接是目标词的反义词，利用思维惯性误导。 3.脱离语境 ：选项含义孤立看合理，但不符合上下文逻辑。 4.词形误导 ：选项词与目标词拼写或发音相似，但含义无关。 5.过度引申 ：选项将词义过度放大或缩小，或添加原文未有的隐含意义。 6.常识干扰 ：选项符合一般常识，但忽略原文具体描述。     1．According to most calculations,race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. 抓标志：连接代词which; 从属连词although 判类型：主句(含有分词短语作定语、两个定语从句和一个省略的状语从句) 试翻译：根据大多数计算，以每小时6英里的速度移动的竞走者每小时会消耗大约800卡路里，这大约是他们普通步行消耗热量的两倍，尽管仍少于跑步，跑步每小时可能消耗大约1000或更多的卡路里。 2．According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. 抓标志：并列连词while；关系代词who 判类型：并列句(含有一个定语从句) 试翻译：根据她的研究，跑步者每一步着地时冲击地面的力量高达其体重的四倍，而双脚从不离开地面的竞走者，每一步产生的冲击力仅为其体重的1.4倍。 ①fitness benefits 　　　　　 健康益处 ②remain in contact with 与...保持接触 ③physically demanding 对身体要求高的 ④burn calories 燃烧卡路里 ⑤be associated with 与...有关联 ⑥place stress on 给...施加压力 综合实战演练 语篇 题型 体裁 词数 内容简介 Passage1 阅读理解 记叙文 280 文章主要讲述了游泳运动员Maya Merhige在游泳方面取得的成就，以及她为癌症研究筹集资金的善举。她完成了被称为“三冠王”的游泳挑战，还计划完成“七大洋”挑战，同时她积极参与公益，为癌症研究筹集了大量资金。 Passage2 阅读理解 记叙文 344 文章讲述了60岁的飞行员Ian Russell挑战铁人三项，尽管遭遇伤病和比赛的高难度，他仍坚持训练，证明年龄不应阻碍追求目标。 Passage3 阅读理解 记叙文 333 文章主要介绍了意大利足球传奇人物克里斯蒂安·维埃里的职业生涯及个人生活，他不仅在足球领域成就卓越，还对板球怀有深厚热爱，其人生深受这两种激情影响。 Passage4 七选五 说明文 250 文章主要介绍了汤姆从足球退役后，对自己在所效力球队中的影响进行了反思，并总结出了可以应用于各种组织的行动经验。 Passage5 七选五 说明文 210 主要讲的是培养运动员精神的策略。 Passage6 语法填空 新闻报道 217 本文报道了2025年亚洲冬季运动会在中国的哈尔滨举并详细报道了运动会的开幕、参与情况、比赛项目、亮点以及中国运动员的表现等信息。 Passage7 完形填空 记叙文 269 文章主要讲述了作者八岁的儿子所在的足球队在最后一场比赛中的故事。在比赛的最后时刻，患有唐氏综合征的Mikey意外地将球踢进了自己队的球门，导致比赛以平局结束。然而，Mikey的纯真和喜悦感染了所有人，包括对方的球员，大家纷纷为他欢呼庆祝。文章通过这个故事传达了体育精神中超越输赢的团结和友爱。 Passage8 完形填空 记叙文 273 本文讲述了冲浪冠军梅拉・瓦阿・纳尔逊的人生经历。她自幼经历丧母、父亲离家、严重车祸导致瘫痪等多重苦难，却在夏威夷通过冲浪重获新生。成为母亲后，她又面临女儿患严重脑病的挑战，但她坚持冲浪并屡获冠军，最终用坚韧证明困境能转化为新的喜悦，家庭始终是她的精神支柱。 Passage 1 （24-25高二下·河北·期末）Maya Merhige is making her major waves in swimming. She is now the third-youngest person to complete an athletic challenge known as the Triple Crown. At the age of 16, she swam 23 miles across the English Channel in the UK with a time of 11 hours, 39 minutes. Merhige had already completed the other two Triple Crown swims. At age 14, with a time of 10 hours, 48 minutes, she became the youngest female to swim the 20-mile Catalina Channel in California. The next year, she completed the 20 Bridges swim in New York City, a distance of 28.5 miles, in 8 hours, 43 minutes. Open-water swimming became her passion at age 9 when she got involved with Swim Across America, a nonprofit organization that funds cancer research. “I’ve been feeling as I’ve gotten older that nearly everyone is touched by cancer, and it’s become more important for me to raise money for this cause,” Merhige, now 17, told The Week Junior. Since she started, she has raised more than $100,000. One of her favorite swims was crossing the 28-mile Ka’iwi Channel in Hawaii. She swam it at age 15, making her the youngest person to do so. It took her more than 27 hours to complete it, and she faced strong winds and jellyfish. Although the physical and mental challenges of her sport are difficult, Merhige says her greatest fear is not finishing a swim. Now she sets her sights on completing the Oceans Seven by 2029, and with her Triple Crown swims, she has four more to go. As she considers the journey ahead, Merhige said it helps to “constantly remind myself to stay in the moment.” 1．What do we know about the Triple Crown? A．It is for young athletes. B．It is a charity event. C．It is a swimming challenge. D．It is an indoor competition. 2．How did Merhige’s involvement with Swim Across America influence her? A．It made her passionate about swimming. B．It helped her overcome her fear of jellyfish. C．It taught her how to swim in the open waters. D．It inspired her to raise funds for cancer research. 3．Why does the author mention the Oceans Seven? A．To show Merhige’s following target. B．To emphasize the game’s importance. C．To showcase Merhige’s achievements. D．To advertise an important sports event. 4．Which of the following can best describe Merhige? A．Determined and kind. B．Ambitious and clever. C．Professional and brave. D．Responsible and skillful. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．A 4．A 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述了游泳运动员Maya Merhige在游泳方面取得的成就，以及她为癌症研究筹集资金的善举。她完成了被称为“三冠王”的游泳挑战，还计划完成“七大洋”挑战，同时她积极参与公益，为癌症研究筹集了大量资金。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中“She is now the third-youngest person to complete an athletic challenge known as the Triple Crown(她现在是完成被称为“三冠王”的体育挑战的第三年轻的人)”以及第二段中“Merhige had already completed the other two Triple Crown swims(Merhige已经完成了另外两次“三冠王”游泳挑战)”可知，“三冠王”是一个游泳挑战。故选C项。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Open-water swimming became her passion at age 9 when she got involved with Swim Across America, a nonprofit organization that funds cancer research. “I’ve been feeling as I’ve gotten older that nearly everyone is touched by cancer, and it’s become more important for me to raise money for this cause,” Merhige, now 17, told The Week Junior. (9岁时，她参加了非营利组织“横渡美国游泳”，该组织为癌症研究提供资金，从此，公开水域游泳成了她的爱好。现年17岁的Merhige告诉《少年周刊》：“随着年龄的增长，我越来越觉得几乎每个人都受到癌症的影响，为这项事业筹集资金对我来说变得更加重要。”)”可知，Merhige参与“横渡美国游泳”激发了她为癌症研究筹集资金的热情。故选D项。 3．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Now she sets her sights on completing the Oceans Seven by 2029, and with her Triple Crown swims, she has four more to go(现在，她的目标是在2029年前完成“七大洋”挑战，在完成了“三冠王”游泳挑战后，她还有四次挑战要完成)”可推知，作者提到“七大洋”挑战是为了表明Merhige接下来的目标。故选A项。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Although the physical and mental challenges of her sport are difficult, Merhige says her greatest fear is not finishing a swim. Now she sets her sights on completing the Oceans Seven by 2029, and with her Triple Crown swims, she has four more to go(尽管这项运动在身体和精神上都很有挑战性，但Merhige说，她最大的恐惧是没有完成游泳。现在，她的目标是在2029年前完成“七大洋”挑战，在完成了“三冠王”游泳挑战后，她还有四次挑战要完成)”可知，尽管这项运动在身体和精神上都很有挑战性，但Merhige说，她最大的恐惧是没有完成游泳。现在，她的目标是在2029年前完成“七大洋”挑战，可推知，Merhige是个有决心的人；再结合第三段中““I’ve been feeling as I’ve gotten older that nearly everyone is touched by cancer, and it’s become more important for me to raise money for this cause,” Merhige, now 17, told The Week Junior. Since she started, she has raised more than $100,000(现年17岁的Merhige告诉《少年周刊》：“随着年龄的增长，我越来越觉得几乎每个人都受到癌症的影响，为这项事业筹集资金对我来说变得更加重要。”从她开始，她已经筹集了超过10万美元)”可知，为癌症研究这项事业筹集资金对Maya Merhige来说变得更加重要，可推知，Merhige是个善良的人。故选A项。 Passage 2 （24-25高二下·吉林长春·期末）While many of us will be taking advantage of the holiday for a bit of rest and relaxation, one man will be in training to push his body to its limits. Ian Russell, an airline pilot from Hereford, is preparing to run his first Ironman Triathlon (铁人三项赛) — at the age of 60. “They used to say life begins at 40. Now, 60 is the new 40,” said Mr Russell. Mr Russell was a keen sportsman when he was young, he listed climbing Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn among his achievements. He later took up running, before joining his local triathlon club. Inspired by some of his fellow members who had taken part, last autumn Mr Russell, who was 60 years old, signed up for the Ironman Triathlon event in Tenby, Pembrokeshire. He didn’t want age to restrict himself. “I originally thought that it’s local and easy to go, but it’s actually one of the toughest ones going,” he said. Since then, Mr Russell has trained “most days” — but has suffered a couple of setbacks. “I’ve had a big operation on my hand,” he explained, “which took a few weeks to recover. And then I broke my foot out training with the triathlon club. That took a good six to eight weeks to recover. So I’m not starting from the best base.” He said that, while he was training hard, he was avoiding pushing himself too much. “You might end up hurting yourself, which I can’t afford now,” he said. Mr Russell was also worried about making a cutoff, of two hours 20 minutes, to complete the swim. “All my main part of my training in my mind is revolving (围绕) around getting through the swimming part. So at least I can get on a bike and… let Mother Nature and tailwinds (顺风) take their course.” Despite this, the athlete said he had no regrets. “I’m proving that age is no barrier to setting bold goals and achieving them,” he added. 1．Why did Mr Russell say “60 is the new 40”? A．He was starting a new career. B．He felt younger than before. C．He wanted to sound humorous. D．He believed age shouldn’t limit his goals. 2．What can be learned from Mr Russell’s training experience? A．His coach caused his injuries. B．He trained too little for the event. C．He underestimated the difficulty of the race. D．He prioritized swimming over biking too early. 3．What does the underlined word “cutoff” in paragraph 4 refer to? A．A time limit. B．A competition rule. C．A safety zone. D．A broken record. 4．Which of the following words can best describe Mr Russell? A．Well-trained but proud. B．Determined and careful. C．Competitive and generous. D．Humorous but narrow-minded. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了60岁的飞行员Ian Russell挑战铁人三项，尽管遭遇伤病和比赛的高难度，他仍坚持训练，证明年龄不应阻碍追求目标。 1．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Inspired by some of his fellow members who had taken part, last autumn Mr Russell, who was 60 years old, signed up for the Ironman Triathlon event in Tenby, Pembrokeshire. He didn’t want age to restrict himself. (去年秋天，60岁的Russell先生受到参加过比赛的俱乐部成员启发，报名参加了彭布罗克郡滕比市的铁人三项赛。他不愿让年龄限制自己的人生)”可推知，Russell说“60岁是新的40岁”是因为他认为60岁不应阻碍他参加这项比赛，年龄不应该限制他的目标。故选D项。 2．推理判断题。根据第三段中Russell所说的话“I originally thought that it’s local and easy to go, but it’s actually one of the toughest ones going (我原本以为它是地方性的，很容易进行，但实际上它是最难的比赛之一)”可推知，Russell最初低估了比赛难度。故选C项。 3．词句猜测题。根据画线词的下文“All my main part of my training in my mind is revolving (围绕) around getting through the swimming part. So at least I can get on a bike (我训练的核心目标始终是确保能完成游泳赛段。这样至少能顺利进入自行车环节)”可知，Russell把训练核心放在完成游泳赛段上，他担心的是自己能否在规定的时间限制两小时二十分钟内完成游泳，画线词指“时间限制”。故选A项。 4．推理判断题。根据第二段中“He didn’t want age to restrict himself. (他不愿让年龄限制自己的人生)”和最后一段“Despite this, the athlete said he had no regrets. “I’m proving that age is no barrier to setting bold goals and achieving them,” he added. (尽管如此，这位运动员表示他毫无遗憾。“我正在证明，年龄绝非设定远大目标并实现它们的阻碍。”他补充道)”可知，Russell坚持参加铁人三项的比赛，不愿让年龄成为自己的限制，说明他是坚定的；根据第四段中“He said that, while he was training hard, he was avoiding pushing himself too much. (他表示，尽管训练非常刻苦，但还是注意避免过度透支自己的身体)”和“All my main part of my training in my mind is revolving (围绕) around getting through the swimming part. (我训练的核心目标始终是确保能完成游泳赛段)”可知，Russell在训练上保证强度合理，重点关注自己薄弱的游泳部分，说明他是谨慎的。故选B项。 Passage 3 （24-25高二下·河南安阳·期末）Christian Vieri, who was once the world’s most expensive footballer when he moved to Inter Milan in 1999 for £30m, has a deep love for cricket (板球). Having spent his childhood in Australia, he grew up watching cricket at the Sydney Cricket Ground and admired West Indies players like Viv Richards and Joel Garner. His favorite Australian player was Allan Border, who even gave him a cricket bat. He especially admires the confidence of West Indies players, believing that confidence is essential in life. As a legend of Italian football and the Italian national team, Vieri holds the record for most World Cup goals scored by an Italian player with nine. His journey in football began in Australia with Marconi Stallions before he moved to Italy at age 14. His grandfather, who believed in his talent, rewarded him with money for each goal he scored in his early games. Vieri’s football career took off when he joined Juventus, where he played alongside Zinedine Zidane. He then moved to Atlético Madrid, where he became the top scorer in the league. His biggest move came when he joined Inter Milan, where he became a club legend by scoring 123 goals in 190 games. Despite playing with stars like Ronaldo and Roberto Baggio, he only won one major trophy during his time there. Throughout his career, Vieri was known for his powerful playing style and confidence both on and off the field. He played for many clubs including Milan, Monaco, and Fiorentina, but it was at Inter Milan that he stayed the longest and made his biggest impact. His combination of speed, power, and skill made him stand out among Italian forwards of his era. Today, Vieri runs various businesses including a YouTube channel, a beer company, and a restaurant chain. He’s happily married and has two daughters, saying he’s never been happier. Despite his successful football career, he still maintains his love for cricket, showing how his Australian childhood influenced his life. 1．What do we know about Vieri’s early football experience? A．He started at an Italian club. B．His grandfather gave him encouragement. C．He wanted to get financial support from his grandfather. D．His talent was recognized by a cricket player. 2．Why was Vieri’s time at Atlético Madrid significant? A．He won his first major trophy. B．He formed a partnership with Zidane. C．He established himself as a top scorer. D．He became a club legend immediately. 3．What is the author’s attitude towards Vieri’s post-retirement life? A．Approving. B．Envious. C．Sympathetic. D．Uninterested. 4．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Christian Vieri: A Football Legend’s Cricket Love B．From Australia to Italy: Vieri’s Football Journey C．The Story of Inter Milan’s All-Time Top Scorer D．Christian Vieri: A Life Shaped by Double Passions 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了意大利足球传奇人物克里斯蒂安·维埃里的职业生涯及个人生活，他不仅在足球领域成就卓越，还对板球怀有深厚热爱，其人生深受这两种激情影响。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“His grandfather, who believed in his talent, rewarded him with money for each goal he scored in his early games.(他的祖父坚信他的天赋，于是每当他在早期比赛中进球时，就会给他一笔奖金作为奖励)”可知，祖父通过金钱奖励认可其天赋，给予鼓励。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“He then moved to Atlético Madrid, where he became the top scorer in the league.(随后他转会至马德里竞技队，在那里他成为了联赛的最佳射手)”可知，维埃里在马德里竞技队时很重要是因为在此期间他确立了自己顶级射手的地位。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Today, Vieri runs various businesses including a YouTube channel, a beer company, and a restaurant chain. He’s happily married and has two daughters, saying he’s never been happier.(如今，维里经营着多种业务，包括一个YouTube频道、一家啤酒公司以及一家连锁餐厅。他婚姻幸福，育有两个女儿，并表示自己从未如此快乐过)”可知，作者用“happily”“never been happier”等积极词汇描述维埃里退役后的生活，且列举其成功的商业成就，可推知作者对其退役生活持赞赏态度。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Despite his successful football career, he still maintains his love for cricket, showing how his Australian childhood influenced his life.(尽管他在足球领域取得了成功，但他依然热爱板球运动，这表明他早年在澳大利亚的生活经历对他的人生产生了深远的影响)”以及全文既讲述维埃里的足球职业生涯（主线），又穿插其对板球的热爱（如童年受澳大利亚影响、至今保持热爱），故D选项“克里斯蒂安·维里：一段由双重激情塑造的人生”最符合文章标题。故选D。 Passage 4 （24-25高二上·河北邢台·期末）Since retiring from football, Tom has reflected on his impact on the teams he played for. Although most of his experiences come from sports, we believe these actions can be applied to various organizations. 1 . The first lesson in leadership is to prioritize (优先处理) the team, even during personal challenges. When competing for a position, Tom lost fair and square to another player, whom he supported in practice. Despite his disappointment, he contributed to the team’s success.

Techniques such as deep breathing, focusing on the next play, or positive self-talk can help manage emotional responses during critical moments. Use encouraging words and maintain a positive tone with teammates and coaches. Positive communication builds team morale (斗志). 5 Discuss with your coach or teammates about ways to improve and avoid similar mistakes in the future. This approach not only improves your skills but also enhances a culture of continuous learning and mutual respect. A．Congratulate opponents on a good match.

It was finally reintroduced at the 1924 Amsterdam Games, and again burned in 1932. Carl Diem, chairman of the organizing committee for the 1936 Berlin Games, proposed that the flame be lit in Greece and transported to Berlin via a torch relay. The idea was adopted(采纳) and continued at every Olympic Games since 1952. The flame is lit at the ancient site of Olympia by the natural rays of the sun reflected off a curved mirror. It is lit at a ceremony by women dressed in robes resembling those worn in ancient times, who then pass it to the first relay runner. The Olympic motto “Citius, altius, fortius” is a Latin phrase meaning “swifter, higher, stronger”, which Baron de Coubertin borrowed from Father Henri Martin Dideon of Paris. Dideon was headmaster of Arcueil College, and used the phrase to describe the athletic achievements of students at the school. He had previously been at the Albert Le Grand school, where the Latin words were carved in stone above the main entrance. The Olympic oath “In the name of all competitors, I promise that we shall take part in these Olympic Games, respecting and abiding by the rules that govern them, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honor of our teams.” Written by Baron de Coubertin, the oath is taken by an athlete from the host nation while holding a corner of the Olympic flag. The athletes’ oath was first taken by Belgian fencer Victor Born at the 1920 Antwerp Games. A judge from the host country also speaks the oath, with slightly different wording. 【译文欣赏】 奥林匹克圣火 奥林匹克圣火是古代奥运会传承下来的象征，最初在宙斯祭坛上燃烧，贯穿整个赛会。它于 1924 年阿姆斯特丹奥运会时再次被引入，并在 1932 年再次燃起。 1936 年柏林奥运会的组织委员会主席卡尔·迪姆提议，圣火应从希腊点燃，并通过火炬传递的方式运往柏林。这一想法被采纳，并在 1952 年后的每届奥运会中延续下来。圣火在奥林匹克遗址由太阳的自然光线反射从一个弯曲的镜面中点燃。在仪式上，由身着类似古代服饰的女性点燃圣火，然后将其传递给第一位火炬手。 奥林匹克格言 “Citius， altius， fortius” 是一个拉丁语短语，意思是“更快、更高、更强”，这是巴伦·德·库伯林从巴黎的亨利·马丁·迪迪翁神父那里借来的。迪迪翁是阿克维尔学院的校长，他用这个短语来描述该校学生的体育成就。他之前在阿尔伯特·勒格朗学校任教，那里在主入口上方刻有这些拉丁语单词。 奥林匹克誓言 “以所有参赛者的名义，我承诺我们将参加这些奥运会，严格遵守其规则，秉持体育精神，为体育事业争光，为我们的团队增光。”这段誓言由主办国的一名运动员在手持奥林匹克会旗一角的姿势下宣读。运动员们的誓言最早由比利时击剑运动员维克多·博因在 1920 年安特卫普奥运会上宣读。主办国的一名法官也会宣读同样的誓言，但用词略有不同。 【词汇积累】 competition [ˌkɑːmpəˈtɪʃ(ə)n] n. 竞争；比赛 propose [prəˈpoʊz] v.提议；建议 reflect [rɪˈflekt] v.反射 resemble [rɪˈzemb(ə)l] v.像，与……相似 achievement [əˈtʃiːvmənt] n.成绩；成就 previously [ˈpriːviəsli] adv.以前地，先前地 sportsmanship [ˈspɔːrtsmənʃɪp] n. 体育精神；运动员风范 slightly [ˈslaɪtli] adv. 稍微；轻微地 【知识拓展】 奥林匹克格言：更高、更快、更强——更团结，这是奥林匹克精神最广为人知的表述，它体现了不断超越、追求卓越的核心思想。 1. 更高（Citius）： 指在竞技水平、个人成就上的不断突破，挑战人类的身体极限。 2. 更快（Altius）： 代表着速度与效率的追求，永不满足于现状。 3. 更强（Fortius）： 不仅指身体的强健，更指精神的坚强、意志的顽强。 4. 更团结（Together）： 这是2021年新增的格言，反映了新时代的需要。它强调在面临全球性挑战时，人类需要通过体育团结起来，共享欢乐与共度难关。 【词汇延伸】 carried over  延续；保留 reflect off 反射；反映 高考真题链接 (2020·全国一卷·阅读理解C篇) Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem. Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass. Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says. According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says. According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice. 28．Why are race walkers conditioned athletes? A．They must run long distances. B．They are qualified for the marathon. C．They have to follow special rules. D．They are good at swinging their legs. 29．What advantage does race walking have over running? A．It’s more popular at the Olympics. B．It’s less challenging physically. C．It’s more effective in body building. D．It’s less likely to cause knee injuries. 30．What is Dr. Norberg’s suggestion for someone trying race walking? A．Getting experts’ opinions. B．Having a medical checkup. C．Hiring an experienced coach. D．Doing regular exercises. 31．Which word best describes the author’s attitude to race walking? A．Skeptical. B．Objective. C．Tolerant. D．Conservative. 1．According to most calculations,race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. 抓标志：连接代词which; 从属连词although 判类型：主句(含有分词短语作定语、两个定语从句和一个省略的状语从句) 试翻译：根据大多数计算，以每小时6英里的速度移动的竞走者每小时会消耗大约800卡路里，这大约是他们普通步行消耗热量的两倍，尽管仍少于跑步，跑步每小时可能消耗大约1000或更多的卡路里。 2．According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. 抓标志：并列连词while；关系代词who 判类型：并列句(含有一个定语从句) 试翻译：根据她的研究，跑步者每一步着地时冲击地面的力量高达其体重的四倍，而双脚从不离开地面的竞走者，每一步产生的冲击力仅为其体重的1.4倍。 ①fitness benefits 　　　　　 健康益处 ②remain in contact with 与...保持接触 ③physically demanding 对身体要求高的 ④burn calories 燃烧卡路里 ⑤be associated with 与...有关联 ⑥place stress on 给...施加压力 综合实战演练 语篇 题型 体裁 词数 内容简介 Passage1 阅读理解 记叙文 280 文章主要讲述了游泳运动员Maya Merhige在游泳方面取得的成就，以及她为癌症研究筹集资金的善举。她完成了被称为“三冠王”的游泳挑战，还计划完成“七大洋”挑战，同时她积极参与公益，为癌症研究筹集了大量资金。 Passage2 阅读理解 记叙文 344 文章讲述了60岁的飞行员Ian Russell挑战铁人三项，尽管遭遇伤病和比赛的高难度，他仍坚持训练，证明年龄不应阻碍追求目标。 Passage3 阅读理解 记叙文 333 文章主要介绍了意大利足球传奇人物克里斯蒂安·维埃里的职业生涯及个人生活，他不仅在足球领域成就卓越，还对板球怀有深厚热爱，其人生深受这两种激情影响。 Passage4 七选五 说明文 250 文章主要介绍了汤姆从足球退役后，对自己在所效力球队中的影响进行了反思，并总结出了可以应用于各种组织的行动经验。 Passage5 七选五 说明文 210 主要讲的是培养运动员精神的策略。 Passage6 语法填空 新闻报道 217 本文报道了2025年亚洲冬季运动会在中国的哈尔滨举并详细报道了运动会的开幕、参与情况、比赛项目、亮点以及中国运动员的表现等信息。 Passage7 完形填空 记叙文 269 文章主要讲述了作者八岁的儿子所在的足球队在最后一场比赛中的故事。在比赛的最后时刻，患有唐氏综合征的Mikey意外地将球踢进了自己队的球门，导致比赛以平局结束。然而，Mikey的纯真和喜悦感染了所有人，包括对方的球员，大家纷纷为他欢呼庆祝。文章通过这个故事传达了体育精神中超越输赢的团结和友爱。 Passage8 完形填空 记叙文 273 本文讲述了冲浪冠军梅拉・瓦阿・纳尔逊的人生经历。她自幼经历丧母、父亲离家、严重车祸导致瘫痪等多重苦难，却在夏威夷通过冲浪重获新生。成为母亲后，她又面临女儿患严重脑病的挑战，但她坚持冲浪并屡获冠军，最终用坚韧证明困境能转化为新的喜悦，家庭始终是她的精神支柱。 Passage 1 （24-25高二下·河北·期末）Maya Merhige is making her major waves in swimming. She is now the third-youngest person to complete an athletic challenge known as the Triple Crown. At the age of 16, she swam 23 miles across the English Channel in the UK with a time of 11 hours, 39 minutes. Merhige had already completed the other two Triple Crown swims. At age 14, with a time of 10 hours, 48 minutes, she became the youngest female to swim the 20-mile Catalina Channel in California. The next year, she completed the 20 Bridges swim in New York City, a distance of 28.5 miles, in 8 hours, 43 minutes. Open-water swimming became her passion at age 9 when she got involved with Swim Across America, a nonprofit organization that funds cancer research. “I’ve been feeling as I’ve gotten older that nearly everyone is touched by cancer, and it’s become more important for me to raise money for this cause,” Merhige, now 17, told The Week Junior. Since she started, she has raised more than $100,000. One of her favorite swims was crossing the 28-mile Ka’iwi Channel in Hawaii. She swam it at age 15, making her the youngest person to do so. It took her more than 27 hours to complete it, and she faced strong winds and jellyfish. Although the physical and mental challenges of her sport are difficult, Merhige says her greatest fear is not finishing a swim. Now she sets her sights on completing the Oceans Seven by 2029, and with her Triple Crown swims, she has four more to go. As she considers the journey ahead, Merhige said it helps to “constantly remind myself to stay in the moment.” 1．What do we know about the Triple Crown? A．It is for young athletes. B．It is a charity event. C．It is a swimming challenge. D．It is an indoor competition. 2．How did Merhige’s involvement with Swim Across America influence her? A．It made her passionate about swimming.

D．To advertise an important sports event. 4．Which of the following can best describe Merhige? A．Determined and kind. B．Ambitious and clever. C．Professional and brave. D．Responsible and skillful. Passage 2 （24-25高二下·吉林长春·期末）While many of us will be taking advantage of the holiday for a bit of rest and relaxation, one man will be in training to push his body to its limits. Ian Russell, an airline pilot from Hereford, is preparing to run his first Ironman Triathlon (铁人三项赛) — at the age of 60. “They used to say life begins at 40. Now, 60 is the new 40,” said Mr Russell. Mr Russell was a keen sportsman when he was young, he listed climbing Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn among his achievements. He later took up running, before joining his local triathlon club. Inspired by some of his fellow members who had taken part, last autumn Mr Russell, who was 60 years old, signed up for the Ironman Triathlon event in Tenby, Pembrokeshire. He didn’t want age to restrict himself. “I originally thought that it’s local and easy to go, but it’s actually one of the toughest ones going,” he said. Since then, Mr Russell has trained “most days” — but has suffered a couple of setbacks. “I’ve had a big operation on my hand,” he explained, “which took a few weeks to recover. And then I broke my foot out training with the triathlon club. That took a good six to eight weeks to recover. So I’m not starting from the best base.” He said that, while he was training hard, he was avoiding pushing himself too much. “You might end up hurting yourself, which I can’t afford now,” he said. Mr Russell was also worried about making a cutoff, of two hours 20 minutes, to complete the swim. “All my main part of my training in my mind is revolving (围绕) around getting through the swimming part. So at least I can get on a bike and… let Mother Nature and tailwinds (顺风) take their course.” Despite this, the athlete said he had no regrets. “I’m proving that age is no barrier to setting bold goals and achieving them,” he added. 1．Why did Mr Russell say “60 is the new 40”? A．He was starting a new career. B．He felt younger than before. C．He wanted to sound humorous. D．He believed age shouldn’t limit his goals. 2．What can be learned from Mr Russell’s training experience? A．His coach caused his injuries. B．He trained too little for the event. C．He underestimated the difficulty of the race. D．He prioritized swimming over biking too early. 3．What does the underlined word “cutoff” in paragraph 4 refer to? A．A time limit. B．A competition rule. C．A safety zone. D．A broken record. 4．Which of the following words can best describe Mr Russell? A．Well-trained but proud. B．Determined and careful. C．Competitive and generous. D．Humorous but narrow-minded.

Although most of his experiences come from sports, we believe these actions can be applied to various organizations. 1 . The first lesson in leadership is to prioritize (优先处理) the team, even during personal challenges. When competing for a position, Tom lost fair and square to another player, whom he supported in practice. Despite his disappointment, he contributed to the team’s success. Show appreciation for unsung heroes. 2 . For example, Swift, a fullback (后卫), worked hard to block defenses but hardly received praise. Tom learned to recognize Swift’s contributions, which gave him a boost in morale (士气). This made Tom understand that everyone needed to feel valued. Set the standard and create a culture of 100% effort. Tom was part of a hardworking group during his early seasons. 3 . By pushing each other to go beyond basic expectations, they developed a culture of commitment that benefited everyone. Communicate honestly. Another leadership rule is being open about expectations.

Actions speak louder than words. As an athlete, your behavior on and off the field sets a tone for others. Be the player who plays fair, respects officials’ decisions, and offers a hand to help up a fallen opponent. 2 Sportsmanship is rooted in self-improvement. 3 View competitors as opportunities to challenge your own limits rather than barriers to your success. Always show respect to everyone involved in the game, including teammates, opponents, coaches, and officials. 4 Learn to handle both success and disappointment with grace. Techniques such as deep breathing, focusing on the next play, or positive self-talk can help manage emotional responses during critical moments. Use encouraging words and maintain a positive tone with teammates and coaches. Positive communication builds team morale (斗志). 5 Discuss with your coach or teammates about ways to improve and avoid similar mistakes in the future.
