Its goal is to deal with the rising overweight problem and help people develop healthier living habits across the country. According to research, more than half of Chinese adults are overweight now and this number may reach 70% by 2030. Keeping a proper weight can greatly lower the risk of illnesses such as heart disease and high blood pressure. The project focuses on three main areas. First, it spreads knowledge of healthy lifestyles so that healthy ideas reach more people. Schools stop providing sweet snacks and make sure students get at least one hour of physical activity each day. Families are also encouraged to record their health conditions regularly. Second, many cities have built sports parks to make it easier for people to work out. Third, hospitals have set up special weight management clinics (诊所) to offer people advice on meals and exercise. Health experts also give practical advice. People should eat more vegetables, fruits and whole grains (全谷物) and never miss meals. Exercising for 30 to 60 minutes every day, such as walking or swimming helps burn fat. Besides, enough sleep is important to keep fit and control weight well. This project reminds us that staying at a healthy weight is not just about appearance. It helps us live a longer and more energetic life. By making small daily changes and working together as a community, more people will be able to enjoy a healthier future. 31. What’s the main goal of China’s “Weight Management Year” project? A. To help people develop healthier habits. B. To treat heart diseases and high blood pressure. C. To stop schools from selling sweet snacks. 32. Which of the following is a measure of the project? A. Schools no longer provide any snacks. B. Cities build more water parks. C. Hospitals open weight management clinics. 33. What does the underlined word “spreads” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Opens up. B. Passes on. C. Puts on. 34. Which habit may health experts agree with? A. Having three meals a day. B. Doing sport for 3 hours a day. C. Sleeping whenever people feel tired. 35. What does the writer think of the project? A. It mainly works through schools. B. It’s helpful and practical. C. It hardly changes people’s daily habits. 【答案】31. A 32. C 33. B 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了中国“体重管理年”三年公共卫生项目的目标、具体措施以及健康专家的建议。 【31题详解】 根据第一段：“Its goal is to deal with the rising overweight problem and help people develop healthier living habits across the country.”项目的主要目标是帮助人们养成更健康的生活习惯。选项A与原文一致。所以选A。 【32题详解】 根据第二段最后一句：“Third, hospitals have set up special weight management clinics...to offer people advice...”可知，医院开设体重管理诊所是措施之一。A项错在any snacks（原文是 sweet snacks），B项错在water parks（原文是 sports parks）。故选C。 【33题详解】 根据第二段：“it spreads knowledge of healthy lifestyles so that healthy ideas reach more people.”通过“so that healthy ideas reach more people”可以推断，spreads的意思是“传播、传递”，即“passes on”。所以选B。 【34题详解】 根据第三段“People should...never miss meals.”可知，专家建议不要漏餐，即规律饮食，与A项“一日三餐”相符。B项运动时间应为30至60分钟，C项原文未提及随时睡觉。故选A。 【35题详解】 根据最后一段：“This project reminds us that staying at a healthy weight is not just about appearance. It helps us live a longer and more energetic life.”作者认为这个项目是有帮助的、实用的。选项B“It’s helpful and practical”与原文一致。所以选B。 B卷（共50分） 一、短文填空。（共10小题；每小题1分，计10分） 从下面方框中选出10个单词，将其正确形式填入短文，使短文意思正确、通顺，每词限用一次。 brave effort fail gentle I improve lesson pain since so surprise win Looking back at my diary written four years ago, an unhappy memory comes into my mind from time to time.

Now I fully realize that the process of growth is filled with losses as well as unexpected ____44____.

Surprisingly 42. efforts 43. have won 44. lessons 45. bravely 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者因身高不足未能入选校篮球队，后在朋友鼓励下转向游泳并最终获奖的成长经历。 【36题详解】 句意：我依然记得没能入选校篮球队这段痛苦的经历。此处需要一个形容词，在句中表示“痛苦的”，修饰名词“experience”。因为后文讲述落选篮球队的伤心往事，所以填写“pain”的形容词“painful”。 【37题详解】 句意：我从小时候起就梦想成为球队的一员，每个周末都花几乎所有业余时间练习篮球。此处需要一个介词或者连词，引导时间状语。因为主句使用了过去完成时“had dreamed”，所以选择“since”，表示“自从”。 【38题详解】 句意：我甚至每天早上早起跑步，试图增强我的体力，希望达到教练严格的标准。此处需要一个动词不定式，作“trying”的宾语。根据固定搭配try to do sth.“试图做某事”，且后文宾语为“my physical strength”，所以填写“to improve”表示“增强”。 【39题详解】 句意：我非常失望，拒绝参加任何户外活动，把自己关在卧室里好几天。此处需要一个反身代词，作“shut”的宾语。固定搭配shut oneself in“把自己关在……里”，主语为“I”，所以填写“I”的反身代词“myself”。 【40题详解】 句意：他用温柔的声音对我说话，鼓励我开始游泳来让自己冷静下来。此处需要一个形容词，修饰名词“voice”。因为朋友注意到我的失望并想安慰我，所以选择形容词“gentle”表示“温柔的”。 【41题详解】 句意：令人惊讶的是，我逐渐爱上了这项运动。此处需要一个副词，修饰整个句子。因为前文作者表示对游泳毫无兴趣，但是后文表达逐渐爱上游泳，语义发生转折，所以填写“surprise”的副词形式“surprisingly”表示“出乎意料”，放句首首字母需大写。 【42题详解】 句意：我在每一场比赛中都全力以赴，每场比赛都尽了最大努力。此处需要一个名词，作“put”的宾语。固定搭配put one’s efforts into“把努力投入……”，且后文有“tried my best”呼应，因此填写“efforts”。 【43题详解】 句意：到目前为止，在过去两年的游泳比赛中我已经赢得了三枚奖牌。此处需要一个动词，在句中作谓语。根据时间状语“Up to now”，本句为现在完成时，主语为“I”，所以填写“have won”表示“已经赢得”三枚奖牌。 【44题详解】 句意：现在我完全意识到，成长的过程充满了失落，也充满了意想不到的教训。此处需要一个名词，在句中表示“教训”，与“losses”并列。因为“as well as”连接并列成分，前文讲述失败的经历，后文需要对应表示从经历中获得的启示，所以填写“lessons”。 【45题详解】 句意：每一次失败都会带给我们新的机会，那些艰难的经历可以变成宝贵的礼物，推动我们勇敢地前进。此处需要一个副词，在句中表示“勇敢地”，修饰动词短语“move forward”。因为前文讲述从失败中成长的主题，需要表达积极向前的态度，所以填写“brave”的副词形式“bravely”。 二、补全短文。（共5小题；每小题1分，计5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的A-F选项中，选出5个适当的选项补全短文。 Do you know in different cultures around the world, the same animal can carry totally different meanings? ____46____ In almost all English-speaking countries, the lion is the star of the animal world! People call it “the king of all animals” and connect it with brave, powerful heroes. ____47____ But guess what? In China, it’s the tiger that holds this title of “the king of beasts”! That’s why when we put the English saying “beard the lion in his den” into Chinese, we use “tiger” instead — it becomes “置身虎穴”. Now let’s talk about owls then! In western countries, the owl is the “wise bird” of the bird world. ____48____ You might even hear them say “as wise as an owl” to praise someone! But in old Chinese stories, hearing an owl’s sound was seen as a bad sign. Maybe people don’t take it too seriously today, but this fun difference still remains! ____49____ Learning about them helps us avoid silly misunderstandings, and it also helps us understand local cultures better. That’s why paying attention to cultural differences is such a big deal. ____50____ So small cultural differences really bring us a richer world. A. Here are two super interesting examples! B.

But do you know where the real Flaming Mountains are? They are in Turpan, in the east of Xinjiang. It’s one of the hottest and driest areas in the world. In the middle of summer, the desert sand can reach 80℃, hot enough to burn your feet and even cook an egg. Rainfall in Turpan is only 16 mm a year. These sound crazy, right? How do people survive in such a terrible climate? The secret lies in the ancient karez system. Turpan has over 1,000 wells (井) and some are 100 meters deep. Under these wells are large underground canals (地下暗道). Water from the mountains falls into the wells. It then runs underground in the canals. It is kept cool and safe from the desert heat. The total length of these canals is more than 5,000 kilometres, almost as long as the Yellow River. Built completely by hand, this amazing water system fully reflects how wise the ancient Chinese people were. It is a perfect example of how ancient people used their intelligence to make good use of nature, helping locals grow plants and live well in the hard land. Now Turpan faces water shortage because of reduced mountain water, less rainfall and rising water use. Though modern technology helps a lot, the karez system still matters greatly. More young people are working to protect it, so this old water system will pass down to our kids in the future. Karez Water System--The Great ____51____ of Ancient Chinese People Location: It’s located in Turpan,____52____ of Flaming Mountains in Journey to the West. Karez is under the mountains. Natural Conditions: Temperature: It can reach up to 80℃ in summer, hot enough to cook eggs on sand. Rainfall: It ____53____ rains. Use: It still plays an important role in ____54____ water for people’s increasing use. Working Steps: Snow water from mountains flows into wells—runs in underground canals—is kept there to ____55____ the desert heat 【答案】51. Wisdom 52. the real place 53. hardly/seldom 54. providing 55. avoid 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了新疆吐鲁番的坎儿井（karez system）的位置、自然条件、工作原理以及它的重要作用和保护现状。 【51题详解】 根据文章第三段中“Built completely by hand, this amazing water system fully reflects how wise the ancient Chinese people were. It is a perfect example of how ancient people used their intelligence to make good use of nature…）”可推知，坎儿井是中国古代人民伟大智慧的结晶，注意单词位于标题处，单词首字母需大写。故填Wisdom。 【52题详解】 根据文章第一段中“You probably remember the Flaming Mountains in Journey to the West. But do you know where the real Flaming Mountains are? They are in Turpan…”可推知，吐鲁番是《西游记》中火焰山的所在地。故填the real place。 【53题详解】 根据文章第二段中“Rainfall in Turpan is only 16 mm a year.”可推知，吐鲁番几乎不怎么下雨。故填hardly/seldom。 【54题详解】 根据文章第三段中“…helping locals grow plants and live well in the hard land.”以及第四段中“Though modern technology helps a lot, the karez system still matters greatly.”可推知，坎儿井在为人们日益增长的使用提供水方面仍然发挥着重要作用，介词in后需要动名词，provide water表示供水，变形为providing。故填providing。 【55题详解】 根据文章第三段中“Water from the mountains falls into the wells. It then runs underground in the canals. It is kept cool and safe from the desert heat.”可推知，地下暗道储存水源，以此避开、隔绝沙漠高温；表格to后接动词原形，avoid表示“避开、阻隔”，贴合“远离高温”的含义，故填avoid。 B. （共5小题；每小题2分。计10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Who doesn’t love a good laugh?

Its goal is to deal with the rising overweight problem and help people develop healthier living habits across the country. According to research, more than half of Chinese adults are overweight now and this number may reach 70% by 2030. Keeping a proper weight can greatly lower the risk of illnesses such as heart disease and high blood pressure. The project focuses on three main areas. First, it spreads knowledge of healthy lifestyles so that healthy ideas reach more people. Schools stop providing sweet snacks and make sure students get at least one hour of physical activity each day. Families are also encouraged to record their health conditions regularly. Second, many cities have built sports parks to make it easier for people to work out. Third, hospitals have set up special weight management clinics (诊所) to offer people advice on meals and exercise. Health experts also give practical advice. People should eat more vegetables, fruits and whole grains (全谷物) and never miss meals. Exercising for 30 to 60 minutes every day, such as walking or swimming helps burn fat. Besides, enough sleep is important to keep fit and control weight well. This project reminds us that staying at a healthy weight is not just about appearance. It helps us live a longer and more energetic life. By making small daily changes and working together as a community, more people will be able to enjoy a healthier future. 31. What’s the main goal of China’s “Weight Management Year” project? A.

But do you know where the real Flaming Mountains are? They are in Turpan, in the east of Xinjiang. It’s one of the hottest and driest areas in the world. In the middle of summer, the desert sand can reach 80℃, hot enough to burn your feet and even cook an egg. Rainfall in Turpan is only 16 mm a year. These sound crazy, right? How do people survive in such a terrible climate? The secret lies in the ancient karez system. Turpan has over 1,000 wells (井) and some are 100 meters deep. Under these wells are large underground canals (地下暗道). Water from the mountains falls into the wells. It then runs underground in the canals. It is kept cool and safe from the desert heat. The total length of these canals is more than 5,000 kilometres, almost as long as the Yellow River. Built completely by hand, this amazing water system fully reflects how wise the ancient Chinese people were. It is a perfect example of how ancient people used their intelligence to make good use of nature, helping locals grow plants and live well in the hard land. Now Turpan faces water shortage because of reduced mountain water, less rainfall and rising water use. Though modern technology helps a lot, the karez system still matters greatly. More young people are working to protect it, so this old water system will pass down to our kids in the future. Karez Water System--The Great ____51____ of Ancient Chinese People Location: It’s located in Turpan,____52____ of Flaming Mountains in Journey to the West. Karez is under the mountains.
