A lot of people play sports, but very few people become sports professionals. Then why should you play sports if sports aren’t going to be your future?
Doing sports has many advantages for young people. For one thing, they teach them how to communicate and work as a team. For example, football is teamwork. When you are in the team, you need to communicate with your teammates and work with them. Sports teach young people to respect their teammates and other people as well.
Sports help young people keep away from problems. If a young person plays sports, he or she might not have so many problems. This is because sports teach young people about rules. They also know that if they work hard, they might win.
Sports make young people go out of their houses. These days, a lot of students spend too much time watching TV and playing games on a phone. When they play sports, they go outside and exercise in the sun. They take in fresh air. All of these things are important for their health.
In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you will become a sports professional or not. Sports will help you become a better and happier person. Sports may also bring you friends and keep you healthy. Last but not least, sports are fun!
36. Why do sports help young people keep away from problems?
A. Because sports make them communicate with their teammates.
B. Because sports teach them about rules and the value of hard work.
C. Because doing sports helps young people keep healthy.
D. Because young people can be sports professionals.
37. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Sports are only for people who want to become professional athletes.
B. Playing sports can help young people in many ways, even if they don’t become professionals.
C. The only advantage of playing sports is to stay healthy.
D. Young people should spend more time on their studies and not waste time on sports.
38. Where is the passage most probably from?
A. A science book. B. An art magazine. C. A storybook. D. A sports magazine.
B
There are a lot of reasons to go out in nature to look around. It makes us feel happy and helps us know about the plants and animals.
For most scientists, however, nature gives out something more—the ideas to improve people’s life. They study bees to work out how small robots might “talk” to report the weather. They look at gecko’s feet to find how to make tape. They study fruit flies to help doctors save people’s lives.
“There are so many fun ways that animals develop to solve problems, and some of them are ones we never think of.” says Lisa Manning, a professor of the bioinspired center. Zhenyu Gan is a robot engineer in the center. He makes robots with four legs or more, instead of robots with wheels.
To find out how legged robots could stand or walk, Gan looks to animals such as horses and mice. “The first thing we have to understand is how they move.” Gan says.
“Usually, robots with two legs like people are clumsy. Just think about how a baby learns to stand and walk. But my robots have four legs or more, just like horses, making the robots walk or run easily and fast.” says Gan.
Gan’s robots have lots of uses. They can explore the moon. Hospitals use doglike robots to work with doctors. Police use legged robots to search fallen buildings for missing people.
39. According to the passage, when going out in nature, a group of scientists may ______.
A. build houses to protect animals
B. enjoy the beautiful view around
C. play games with animals
D. study how birds can fly to invent planes
40. Gan may invent the following robots except ______.
A. Legged robots like spiders B. Four-legged robots like horses
C. Legged robots like mice D. Robots with wheels
41. What is the purpose of writing this passage?
A. To introduce changes of bioinspired ideas.
B. To tell us it’s hard to study animals.
C. To show us how animal ways help in our lives.
D. To find out different reasons to look at nature.

Do you play with your phone before bedtime? You may want to read a book instead. According to a US study, looking at screens at night can cause us to sleep poorly.
In the evening, our bodies make melatonin. Melatonin helps us feel sleepy and relaxed. It is an important part of our sleep cycle. Our electronic screens stop that cycle from working normally.
Why? Phones, computers and TVs make blue light. Blue light stops our bodies from making melatonin. Even just a little bit of blue light can have an effect. Eight minutes of blue light can keep your brain active for another hour, according to the study. Even if you fall asleep, you may have lots of dreams. Your brain won’t have a good rest.
It’s even worse if you play an exciting game before bed. Games make our hearts beat faster, so we have a harder time falling asleep. Then, when we fall asleep, we don’t get enough “deep sleep”, which results in poor health.
Use these tips to get a good night’s sleep:
- Have a relaxing routine every night. Take a warm shower or read a book.
- Sleep in a dark, quiet room that is not too warm or too cold.
- Count sheep. It’s the oldest trick, and it can actually work!
- Don’t eat a big meal or have caffeine. Drink milk.
- Don’t run around or exercise three hours before bedtime.
45. What can we learn about melatonin?
A. It helps us fall asleep at night.
B. It makes us feel hungry and tired.
C. Too much of it makes us sleep poorly.
D. It stops our sleep cycle from going normally.
46. How do electronic screens make it hard for us to sleep?
A. They cannot make us feel relaxed.
B. The blue light breaks our sleep cycle.
C. Our brains need more time to make dreams.
D. They make more melatonin than our bodies need.
47. What is True according to the passage?
A. Getting enough deep sleep is important.
B. Playing games helps us go to sleep quickly.
C. Our hearts beat more slowly when we play games.
D. It’s good for us to play exciting games before bedtime.
48. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How people can get a good sleep. B. Why melatonin is very important.
C. Why people should have enough deep sleep. D. How playing with phones leads to poor sleep.

Looking at the unfinished homework on his desk always makes David Grey feel uncomfortable. David often leaves his homework behind and surfs the Internet or watches TV instead, waiting until the last minute. “But the longer I wait,” says David, aged 15, “the more I worry.”
Everyone procrastinates because they want to feel good now. The way to do that is to not do the task at the moment. You can procrastinate on nearly anything, even enjoyable tasks such as planning a vacation. “Some people procrastinate cleaning. Some people procrastinate by cleaning,” says Professor Peter Stone. Research has shown that the top tasks young people procrastinate are studying and going to bed. “One big cause for procrastination is that people are afraid of failure, of not meeting others’ expectations,” Stone adds.
Some people believe that procrastination will make them thrive. But researchers disagree. “I did a study several years ago, asking procrastinators to finish a task in a certain period of time,” says Stone. “They did badly. They did worse than non-procrastinators: they made more mistakes and they took longer. But they thought they did better.” No matter what the cause is, procrastination is usually not going to be good for you.
For those who need some drive to stop procrastinating, the best advice might be to take action first. Next, find something to help you remember to take action. Finally, reward yourself every time you make progress.
49. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By asking a question. B. By giving an example.
C. By introducing the topic directly. D. By giving facts.
50. What is the main reason for people’s procrastination?
A. They fear to lose and let others down. B. They don’t want to do hard work.
C. They need to finish the top tasks first. D. They plan to do the enjoyable tasks last.
51. The underlined word “thrive” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “______”.
A. work more successfully B. think faster C. fail more easily D. worry too much
52. What can be the best title of this passage?
A. A Day of a Procrastinator. B. Procrastination: Yes or No?
C. Say Goodbye to Procrastination. D. Want to feel good now? Procrastinate.
Ⅸ.任务型阅读
阅读下面的短文,回答问题。
Do you laugh every day? Most people do. Scientists say that people laugh about 17 times a day.
In India, there are hundreds of laugh clubs. People in these clubs get together every morning. First they put their hands above their heads. Then they start to laugh. Soon everyone is laughing happily. People say they feel good after laughing together.
Scientists believe that laughs are good for you. Why? For one thing, laughs are good exercise. When you laugh, you exercise many muscles in your body. Scientists say one hundred laughs are like ten minutes of running. For another, when you laugh, you can relax yourself. That’s good for you, too.
Why do we laugh? That is a hard question to answer. We know that people laugh more often when they are in a group. They don’t laugh very often when they are alone. Many scientists believe that people laugh to connect to other people. Because laughs help people be part of a group.
Some people say that laughs can help people keep healthy. Do you think so?

【导语】本文讲述气候变化威胁北极熊生存,介绍数量减少的原因及北极冰面变化,呼吁人们行动起来保护北极熊。
【11题详解】
句意:根据一项研究,到2080年北极熊的数量将快速下降。
根据前文“disappear”及“sad”可知数量是减少的,fall表示“下降”,符合语境;rise和add表示增加,change表意不明。
【12题详解】
句意:有两个原因。
根据后文“One is that… The other cause is that…”可知这是在列举原因,causes意为“原因”,符合语境;results“结果”、goals“目标”、dangers“危险”均不符合逻辑。
【13题详解】
句意:北极熊在冰上寻找食物。
北极熊在冰上是为了觅食,look for表示“寻找”,符合行为逻辑;think about“思考”、focus on“专注于”、cut down“削减”均不符合觅食语境。
【14题详解】
句意:没有冰,它们就不得不待在陆地上。
此处指代前文提到的“Polar bears”,为复数动物,使用they;we“我们”、I“我”、you“你/你们”人称指代错误。
【15题详解】
句意:母熊可能没有足够的脂肪为它们的幼崽产奶。
根据“mother polar bears”和“produce milk”可知是给熊宝宝喝奶,babies符合语境;teams“团队”、meals“餐”、fat“脂肪”均不符合逻辑。
【16题详解】
句意:北极是大约25000只北极熊的家园。
be home to是固定搭配,意为“是……的栖息地/家园”,符合北极熊生存环境的语境;center“中心”、field“田野”、building“建筑”均不恰当。
【17题详解】
句意:然后在冬天出现。
表示“在某个季节”用介词in,in winter是固定搭配;at“在……(时刻)”、on“在……(具体日期)”、from“从”均不符合季节前的介词用法。
【18题详解】
句意:科学家说那里的冰正在快速变暖。
根据下文“It is dangerous”可知变暖速度很快才危险,fast符合语境;usually“通常”、well“好”、again“再次”无法体现紧迫性和危险性。
【19题详解】
句意:研究还表明,现在减缓那里的冰融化是可能的。
根据后文“people should try to…”可知这是可以通过努力实现的,possible表示“可能的”,符合希望语境;common“常见的”、magic“有魔力的”、natural“自然的”均不符合。
【20题详解】
句意:人们需要现在采取行动来实现它。
“need to”后接动词原形,act表示“行动”,act now是常用搭配,呼应下文“saving the bears is up to us”;save“拯救”需接宾语,carry“携带”和order“命令”语意不通。

A lot of people play sports, but very few people become sports professionals. Then why should you play sports if sports aren’t going to be your future?
Doing sports has many advantages for young people. For one thing, they teach them how to communicate and work as a team. For example, football is teamwork. When you are in the team, you need to communicate with your teammates and work with them. Sports teach young people to respect their teammates and other people as well.
Sports help young people keep away from problems. If a young person plays sports, he or she might not have so many problems. This is because sports teach young people about rules. They also know that if they work hard, they might win.
Sports make young people go out of their houses. These days, a lot of students spend too much time watching TV and playing games on a phone. When they play sports, they go outside and exercise in the sun. They take in fresh air. All of these things are important for their health.
In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you will become a sports professional or not. Sports will help you become a better and happier person. Sports may also bring you friends and keep you healthy. Last but not least, sports are fun!
36. Why do sports help young people keep away from problems?
A. Because sports make them communicate with their teammates.
B. Because sports teach them about rules and the value of hard work.
C. Because doing sports helps young people keep healthy.
D. Because young people can be sports professionals.
37. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Sports are only for people who want to become professional athletes.
B. Playing sports can help young people in many ways, even if they don’t become professionals.
C. The only advantage of playing sports is to stay healthy.
D. Young people should spend more time on their studies and not waste time on sports.

通读全文可知,文章分别从沟通合作、遵守规则、远离问题、促进健康、带来快乐等多个方面说明参与体育运动的好处,并在最后一段明确指出:“In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you will become a sports professional or not.” 因此,即使不成为职业运动员,体育运动也能在很多方面帮助年轻人。
【38题详解】
文章围绕体育运动的好处展开,语言通俗、建议性强,适合刊登在体育类杂志上,而不是科学书、艺术杂志或故事书。
B
There are a lot of reasons to go out in nature to look around. It makes us feel happy and helps us know about the plants and animals.
For most scientists, however, nature gives out something more—the ideas to improve people’s life. They study bees to work out how small robots might “talk” to report the weather. They look at gecko’s feet to find how to make tape. They study fruit flies to help doctors save people’s lives.
“There are so many fun ways that animals develop to solve problems, and some of them are ones we never think of.” says Lisa Manning, a professor of the bioinspired center. Zhenyu Gan is a robot engineer in the center. He makes robots with four legs or more, instead of robots with wheels.
To find out how legged robots could stand or walk, Gan looks to animals such as horses and mice. “The first thing we have to understand is how they move.” Gan says.
“Usually, robots with two legs like people are clumsy. Just think about how a baby learns to stand and walk. But my robots have four legs or more, just like horses, making the robots walk or run easily and fast.” says Gan.
Gan’s robots have lots of uses. They can explore the moon. Hospitals use doglike robots to work with doctors. Police use legged robots to search fallen buildings for missing people.
39. According to the passage, when going out in nature, a group of scientists may ______.
A. build houses to protect animals
B. enjoy the beautiful view around
C. play games with animals
D. study how birds can fly to invent planes
40. Gan may invent the following robots except ______.
A. Legged robots like spiders B. Four-legged robots like horses
C. Legged robots like mice D. Robots with wheels
41. What is the purpose of writing this passage?
A. To introduce changes of bioinspired ideas.
B. To tell us it’s hard to study animals.
C. To show us how animal ways help in our lives.
D. To find out different reasons to look at nature.
【答案】39. D 40. D 41. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了科学家从生物特性中获取灵感来改善人类生活的相关内容。
【39题详解】
根据第二段中的“For most scientists, however, nature gives out something more—the ideas to improve people’s life.”以及后文列举的研究蜜蜂、壁虎、果蝇获取发明灵感的例子,能看出科学家会从生物特性中寻找发明思路,研究鸟类飞行来发明飞机是符合这一逻辑的。
【40题详解】
根据第三段“Zhenyu Gan is a robot engineer in the center. He makes robots with four legs or more, instead of robots with wheels.”可知,甘振宇制造的是四条腿或更多腿的机器人,明确说明不是带轮子的机器人。因此,他发明的机器人不包括带轮子的机器人。
【41题详解】
通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了科学家从自然界动物身上获得灵感,研发出有助于人类生活的技术和机器人,核心是展示动物的特性如何帮助人类解决问题、改善生活。因此,文章的写作目的是展示动物的生存方式如何帮助人类生活。

【导语】本文是一篇介绍社区养老服务的说明文,讲述了作者所在社区为老年人提供的多种关怀措施,包括设立养老院、组织文体活动、提供免费体检及安排志愿者帮扶等,展现了社区养老的温暖,也呼吁人们共同关注老年群体。
【42题详解】
根据文章内容可知,社区关爱老人的方式主要有四种:第二段提到的“养老院护理”(nursing home care);第三段提到的“社区活动”(activities,如广场舞、乒乓球、旅行);第三段通过“What’s more”引出的“免费体检”(free medical exams);第四段提到的“志愿者帮助”(volunteers help)。
【43题详解】
根据第四段“There are also volunteers in our community. They are very happy to help the elders. They chat with them...”可知,志愿者乐意帮助老人,他们与“他们”聊天。这里的“他们”指代前文提到的帮助对象,即“老人”(the elders)。
【44题详解】
通读全文可知,第一段引出社区养老的重要性(总起);第二、三、四段分别从养老院、社区活动与医疗、志愿者三个方面具体介绍社区如何关爱老人(分述);第五段总结全文,呼吁大家关爱老人(总结)。因此文章结构为“总-分-总”,即①-②③④-⑤。

Do you play with your phone before bedtime? You may want to read a book instead. According to a US study, looking at screens at night can cause us to sleep poorly.
In the evening, our bodies make melatonin. Melatonin helps us feel sleepy and relaxed. It is an important part of our sleep cycle. Our electronic screens stop that cycle from working normally.
Why? Phones, computers and TVs make blue light. Blue light stops our bodies from making melatonin. Even just a little bit of blue light can have an effect. Eight minutes of blue light can keep your brain active for another hour, according to the study. Even if you fall asleep, you may have lots of dreams. Your brain won’t have a good rest.
It’s even worse if you play an exciting game before bed. Games make our hearts beat faster, so we have a harder time falling asleep. Then, when we fall asleep, we don’t get enough “deep sleep”, which results in poor health.
Use these tips to get a good night’s sleep:
- Have a relaxing routine every night. Take a warm shower or read a book.
- Sleep in a dark, quiet room that is not too warm or too cold.
- Count sheep. It’s the oldest trick, and it can actually work!
- Don’t eat a big meal or have caffeine. Drink milk.
- Don’t run around or exercise three hours before bedtime.
45. What can we learn about melatonin?
A. It helps us fall asleep at night.
B. It makes us feel hungry and tired.
C. Too much of it makes us sleep poorly.
D. It stops our sleep cycle from going normally.
46. How do electronic screens make it hard for us to sleep?
A. They cannot make us feel relaxed.
B. The blue light breaks our sleep cycle.
C. Our brains need more time to make dreams.
D. They make more melatonin than our bodies need.
47. What is True according to the passage?
A. Getting enough deep sleep is important.
B. Playing games helps us go to sleep quickly.
C. Our hearts beat more slowly when we play games.
D. It’s good for us to play exciting games before bedtime.
48. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How people can get a good sleep. B. Why melatonin is very important.
C. Why people should have enough deep sleep. D. How playing with phones leads to poor sleep.
【答案】45. A 46. B 47. A 48. A
【解析】
【导语】本文解释了睡前使用电子设备如何通过蓝光抑制褪黑素分泌、干扰睡眠周期,并提供了改善睡眠的实用建议。

【46题详解】
根据文章第二段最后一句“Our electronic screens stop that cycle from working normally.”以及第三段第二句“Blue light stops our bodies from making melatonin.”可知,电子屏幕产生的蓝光会阻止褪黑素生成,从而破坏睡眠周期。
【47题详解】
根据文章第四段最后一句“Then, when we fall asleep, we don’t get enough ‘deep sleep’, which results in poor health.”,反向推断可知获得足够的深睡眠对健康很重要。

Looking at the unfinished homework on his desk always makes David Grey feel uncomfortable. David often leaves his homework behind and surfs the Internet or watches TV instead, waiting until the last minute. “But the longer I wait,” says David, aged 15, “the more I worry.”
Everyone procrastinates because they want to feel good now. The way to do that is to not do the task at the moment. You can procrastinate on nearly anything, even enjoyable tasks such as planning a vacation. “Some people procrastinate cleaning. Some people procrastinate by cleaning,” says Professor Peter Stone. Research has shown that the top tasks young people procrastinate are studying and going to bed. “One big cause for procrastination is that people are afraid of failure, of not meeting others’ expectations,” Stone adds.
Some people believe that procrastination will make them thrive. But researchers disagree. “I did a study several years ago, asking procrastinators to finish a task in a certain period of time,” says Stone. “They did badly. They did worse than non-procrastinators: they made more mistakes and they took longer. But they thought they did better.” No matter what the cause is, procrastination is usually not going to be good for you.
For those who need some drive to stop procrastinating, the best advice might be to take action first. Next, find something to help you remember to take action. Finally, reward yourself every time you make progress.
49. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By asking a question. B. By giving an example.
C. By introducing the topic directly. D. By giving facts.
50. What is the main reason for people’s procrastination?
A. They fear to lose and let others down. B. They don’t want to do hard work.
C. They need to finish the top tasks first. D. They plan to do the enjoyable tasks last.
51. The underlined word “thrive” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “______”.
A. work more successfully B. think faster C. fail more easily D. worry too much
52. What can be the best title of this passage?
A. A Day of a Procrastinator. B. Procrastination: Yes or No?
C. Say Goodbye to Procrastination. D. Want to feel good now? Procrastinate.
【答案】49. B 50. A 51. A 52. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主题是拖延症,科普拖延的原因、大众错误认知、拖延的真实危害,以及告别拖延的实用方法。
【49题详解】
根据第一段中的“Looking at the unfinished homework on his desk always makes David Grey feel uncomfortable…says David, aged 15, “the more I worry.”可知,文章开头通过描述David这个具体学生的经历和感受来引出拖延症的话题,属于举例说明。
【50题详解】
根据第二段中的“One big cause for procrastination is that people are afraid of failure, of not meeting others’ expectations,”可知,拖延症的一个主要原因是人们害怕失败,害怕达不到他人的期望,即害怕让别人失望。
【51题详解】
根据第三段中的“Some people believe that procrastination will make them thrive. But researchers disagree…They did badly. They did worse than non-procrastinators: they made more mistakes and they took longer. But they thought they did better.”可知,有些人认为拖延能让他们表现更好,但研究者不同意,指出他们实际上表现很差。因此“thrive”在此处应表示“做得更好”或“更成功”,与“work more successfully”意思相近。
【52题详解】
本文首先通过案例引出拖延症,分析了其原因和负面影响,最后在第四段给出了停止拖延的建议。整篇文章旨在帮助读者认识并克服拖延症,因此“向拖延症说再见”作为标题最合适。

Scientists believe that laughs are good for you. Why? For one thing, laughs are good exercise. When you laugh, you exercise many muscles in your body. Scientists say one hundred laughs are like ten minutes of running. For another, when you laugh, you can relax yourself. That’s good for you, too.
Why do we laugh? That is a hard question to answer. We know that people laugh more often when they are in a group. They don’t laugh very often when they are alone. Many scientists believe that people laugh to connect to other people. Because laughs help people be part of a group.
Some people say that laughs can help people keep healthy. Do you think so?
