The Canadian began her career as a referee in 1978，at the age of 14.She worked her way up，and in 1994，became the first female international FIFA referee.Sonia was the first woman to referee a top men’s professional game，in EL Salvador in 1996.A year later，she became the first female to referee a men’s first division game(甲级队) in Brazil.She has refereed at thousands of games at all levels，including over 100 international games，three World Cups，and two Olympic Games. Her goal has always been to encourage more young women to become involved in the game.She accepts that it can be difficult，but she is sure that progress is possible.“I became a top referee and I’m from Canada，which is not a huge footballing nation，” she said.“So if I can do it，anyone can.And I wouldn’t change anything about my life because my career has given me excellent opportunities.” In 1994，there were only four female referees on FIFA’s list.In 2008，this figure had risen to 552—over 18 percent of the 3,000 listed FIFA referees and assistants.She is now Head of FIFA Women’s refereeing and continues to promote the role of women in soccer.However，there is still a long way to go in the battle for equality in the game. It is still very unusual to see a female referee at the top international tournaments.Some people say this is because the women referees aren’t fit enough to work at the highest level.But for Sonia，this is simply an excuse to hide the widespread opposition to women doing what is considered a “man’s job”．“It’s a social thing，” she says.“In some countries women in positions of authority are just not accepted.” Even Sonia admits，“Football is still a man’s world.” However，things are changing，thanks to pioneering women like Sonia. 语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了女足裁判索尼娅·德农库特的成功经历和努力，她成为国际足球联合会FIFA的第一位女性国际裁判，并在男足职业比赛中执法，并倡导更多的年轻女性参与足球运动。 24．Which of the following can best describe Sonia Denoncourt?

D．Deep-rooted opposition to women. 答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段第三句可知，索尼娅认为女性从事裁判工作有困难的根本原因在于根深蒂固的对女性从事所谓“男性工作”的反对。故选D。 27．What is the best title for the text? A．A Woman Doing a Man’s Job B．A Woman Having Her Dream C．A Woman Bringing About Changes D．A Woman Involved in International Games 答案　A 解析　标题归纳题。通读全文尤其根据第一段可知，文章主要介绍了女足裁判索尼娅·德农库特的成功经历和努力，她成为国际足球联合会(FIFA)的第一位女性国际裁判，并在男足职业比赛中执法，并倡导更多的年轻女性参与足球运动。一些人认为女性裁判的身体素质不适合在国际顶级比赛中工作，但索尼娅认为这只是对女性从事所谓“男性工作”的普遍反对的借口。她坚信只要努力，任何人都可以实现自己的目标。故选A。 C A lot of businesses are started by people who have hobbies or special talents and want to turn these interests into a business.But switching from a hobby to a real business requires business know-how and investments，which stops many people.However，an increasing number of ambitious business owners have found a way to take a first step.They are taking their dreams and talents on the road—in vans and lorries，and even horse trucks. Beginning on a small scale has its advantages，the most important of which is the relatively modest size of start-up costs.These costs，which consist primarily of，the vehicle and any required equipment，usually come to about only ￡ 5,000－￡ 10,000.With such tightly controlled costs，mobile businesses often break even in a year or two; in contrast，success comes to brick-and-mortar businesses much more slowly，and they often fail within the first two years.In short，mobile businesses are relatively low-risk. The first entrepreneurs(企业家) to do this have been in the food business.The mobile food vendor trend in the US and Europe has spread to other parts of the globe.The success of these street food vans has inspired other entrepreneurs to consider starting out on wheels. UK entrepreneurs could take inspiration from the US where，today，there are vehicles that sell flowers，shoes，clothes and all kinds of specialty food items.There are also mobile businesses that provide services，such as hair styling，pet grooming and repair of high-tech devices.Mobile retail is not without problems，however.Weather，the increasing price of fuel，and just finding a place to set up are all challenges that mobile entrepreneurs have to deal with.These business owners，however，feel the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.In the US，the mobile food business alone generates an average annual revenue of $857 million. Once convinced that their business has achieved enough success，some successful mobile entrepreneurs move on to a brick-and-mortar business.Others are satisfied to stay mobile.As stand-alone businesses or as extensions of shops，mobile retail has huge future potential in these economic times. 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了如今移动生意的兴起，分析了背后的原因、面临的挑战以及未来前景等。 28．What’s the major cause for the rise of mobile business? A．High profit. B．Low investment. C．Strong interest. D．Convenient transport. 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中“Beginning on a small scale has its advantages，the most important of which is the relatively modest size of start-up costs.”可知，移动生意兴起的主要原因是所需投资少。故选B。 29．How does the author prove the advantages of the mobile business in paragraph 2? A．By quoting a famous saying. B．By giving an example. C．By providing an explanation. D．By making a comparison. 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。根据第二段中“With such tightly controlled costs，mobile businesses often break even in a year or two; in contrast，success comes to brick-and-mortar businesses much more slowly，and they often fail within the first two years.In short，mobile businesses are relatively low-risk.”可推知，作者在第二段通过比较证明移动生意的优势。故选D。 30．Which of the following will make it harder for the owners to run mobile businesses? A．The vehicle care. B．The business permit. C．The terrible storm. D．The insufficient supply. 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Weather，the increasing price of fuel，and just finding a place to set up are all challenges that mobile entrepreneurs have to deal with.”可知，严重的风暴会使企业主更难做移动生意。故选C。 31．What’s the author’s attitude towards the future of mobile business? A．Negative. B．Positive. C．Unconcerned. D．Neutral. 答案　B 解析　观点态度题。根据最后一段中“As stand-alone businesses or as extensions of shops，mobile retail has huge future potential in these economic times.”可推知，作者对移动生意的未来持积极态度。故选B。 D (2024·江苏南通高二调研) What are the limits of the human body? Is there a point at which it is physically impossible to do something? “One thing we’ve all learned in the last 30 years or so is that just about anything is humanly possible，” says Dr.Jack Wilmore，author of Physiology of Sport and Exercise.“As time goes by，I think you’ll see more records continue to fall in every sport.The talent pool is better than ever.With more and better athletes involved and competing，records will fall and new standards will be set.” Many believed it was physically impossible for a human to run a mile in under four minutes，but Roger Bannister proved that theory wrong with a three-minute,59-second mile in 1954.Today，sub-four-minute miles are considered routine even in high school.And Bob Beamon stretched human performance in the 1968 Olympics with his historic long jump of 8.90 metres.In an event where a record is usually broken by mere inches，he broke the previous jump record by more than 21 inches，but even his record was broken in 1991. One factor is now becoming more understood and heavily emphasized：sports psychology.Getting inside the athlete’s head can be as effective as training and long workouts.According to Wilmore，the psychological aspect of sports has become more and more esteemed.He points out that most professional teams have hired sports psychologists for their players. In addition，every aspect of athletics—training，nutrition，injury treatment—is far better than it’s ever been.“Besides，children today tend to specialize in one or two sports instead of competing in several as was common twenty-five years ago，” Wilmore says.“That means they start concentrating on a sport much earlier and more intensely，and they become much better at it.” “There’s a lot we don’t know yet about the human body，” he adds.“And one of those things is the full range of human potential.It would be foolish to try and put limits on what the human body can do.” 32．Which statement will Wilmore probably agree with? A．Athletes will continue to surprise us with their achievements. B．Athletes will become the most sought-after celebrities. C．It is necessary for athletes to learn the limits of the body. D．It is preferable to set universal standards for athletes. 答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据第二段“‘One thing we’ve all learned in the last 30 years or so is that just about anything is humanly possible，’．..‘As time goes by...records will fall and new standards will be set.’”可推知，威尔莫尔可能会同意的观点是运动员将继续用他们的成就给我们带来惊喜。故选A。 33．Why are Roger Bannister and Bob Beamon mentioned in paragraph 3? A．To introduce two great athletes. B．To show some of the latest world records. C．To prove the limits of the body can be pushed. D．To explain what athletes can achieve under stress. 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段“Many believed it was physically impossible for a human to run a mile in under four minutes...but even his record was broken in 1991.”可推知，第三段提到罗杰·班尼斯特和鲍勃·比蒙的例子是为了证明身体的极限是可以突破的。故选C。 34．What does the underlined word “esteemed” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Valued. B．Similar. C．Complex. D．Specialized. 答案　A 解析　词义猜测题。根据第四段中“One factor is now becoming more understood and heavily emphasized: sports psychology.”以及“He points out that most professional teams have hired sports psychologists for their players.”可知，根据威尔莫尔的说法，体育的心理方面越来越受到重视。故可猜测画线单词esteemed为“重视”的意思。故选A。 35．How are today’s children different from those years ago according to Wilmore? A．They participate in far more sports. B．They are less likely to get injured in sports. C．They begin playing sports at a much earlier age. D．They become more skilful at one particular sport. 答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后两句可知，根据威尔莫尔的说法，今天的孩子和那些很多年前的孩子的不同之处在于他们在一项特定的运动中变得更加熟练。故选D。 第二节　(共5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Reasons to Put on Your Rollerblades and Hit the Pavement Rollerblading(滑旱冰) is great for building balance，strengthening muscles，and improving mental health.It’s also a cheap，fun，and eco-friendly way to get your daily exercise in.

Sometimes his dad took him canoeing(划独木舟) there，and Alex loved it.The pond was always so alive with activity，and sometimes Alex discovered turtles(乌龟) sunbathing on sunny rocks.Alex was curious about the turtles he saw.When it was too rainy to go canoeing，he and his dad would go to the library to check out books on turtles. Now it looked like tomorrow might be another sunny day.He decided he would ask Dad if they could go canoeing and look for turtles again. Just then Alex saw something in the road up ahead.It looked like a big gray rock.But it was a funny place for a rock to be.He jumped off to have a look.It turned out that it was actually a large turtle making its way across the road.Alex knew right away it was a snapping turtle. Out of the corner of his eye，he saw a car approaching.The turtle was still only halfway across the road.Alex knew he couldn’t pick it up because snapping turtles have a powerful bite and they could even bite off someone’s finger! What could he do? Thinking fast，he started waving both hands wildly.“Stop! Stop！” he cried.The car slowed to a stop. “Are you alight，Alex？” It was his neighbor，Mrs Ramos. “I’m fine，Mrs Ramos，” said Alex.“I’m just trying to save a turtle.It’s probably going to lay egg.” “Oh，yeah.It’s spring，” said Mrs Ramos.“So，I guess a lot of turtles need to lay their eggs in the grass across the road.” Then she waved goodbye and drove off. Alex thought about what Mrs Ramos had said.“There would probably be more turtles trying to cross the road at this spot！” he realized.But he couldn’t stand there all day trying to stop cars.He looked around and a road sign caught his eye.And then his face brightened. 注意：续写词数应为150个左右。 He jumped on his bike and raced home to find Dad. The next morning，Dad and Alex drove to the pond with the wooden sign in the car. 参考范文 He jumped on his bike and raced home to find Dad.“Dad，can I have some old wood to make a wooden sign？” Alex asked eagerly.Hearing Alex’s full explanation，Dad then smiled knowingly.Then the father and son devoted themselves to cutting a wood board into the right “T” shape.After that，Alex wrote down a line with red paint on both sides of the sign，reading “Slow! Turtles Crossing！” Work all done，they put the wooden sign into their car and went for dinner. The next morning，Dad and Alex drove to the pond with the wooden sign in the car.Upon arriving，they sprang into action.Alex pulled the sign to the side of the road and held it tightly while Dad hammered it into the ground.Sweat dripping into their eyes，they worked with passion until the sign got fixed firmly in the ground.Alex stepped back and surveyed their work.“Slow! Turtles Crossing！” he read out loud and grinned.“Ready to go canoeing？” “Yes！” Alex blurted out，rushing to the pond with pride. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
