While she described the injury as “not necessarily painful,” it caused her shoulder to repeatedly come out of place.(一月下旬，她在训练中左肩盂唇撕裂。虽说她称伤势并非十分疼痛，但这会导致肩膀反复脱臼。)”可知，Kim的肩部盂唇撕裂使她的肩膀容易脱臼。 2．主旨大意题。根据第三段“Determined to compete, Kim chose to push through. She wore a shoulder brace (支具) that greatly restricted her movement. “I wasn’t able to raise my arm and I couldn’t move my arm much at all,” she shared. The injury forced her to relearn many of her tricks, since most required using her arms. With only eight days before the final, Kim had to adapt quickly.(Kim决心参赛，选择咬牙坚持。她佩戴了肩部护具，这极大地限制了活动幅度。她坦言：“我抬不起胳膊，手臂几乎无法活动。” 由于大部分动作都需要借助手臂完成，伤势迫使她重新练习诸多技巧。距离决赛仅剩八天，金必须快速调整适应。)”可知，第三段主要讲述了她为决赛做的准备。 3．推理判断题。根据第四段“She also credited her support system — family, friends, and her boyfriend, Cleveland Browns player Myles Garrett — for keeping her grounded.(她也坦言，家人、朋友以及男友——克利夫兰布朗队球员Myles Garrett——这些身边的支持者，让她始终心态沉稳、脚踏实地。)”可推断，Kim对男友Myles Garrett充满了感激之情。 4．推理判断题。本文讲述了美国单板滑雪名将Chloe Kim在赛前左肩重伤、无法接受手术治疗的困境下，克服身体障碍、紧急调整动作，最终斩获冬奥会银牌，连续三届收获奥运奖牌的励志故事，展现了她不畏艰难、坚持拼搏的精神。由此可知，我们从Kim的故事中学到了“有志者事竟成”的道理。 5．D 6．B 7．C 8．C 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了安吉尔·里斯初入WNBA时备受质疑，后凭实力逆袭，成为球队核心。她人气高涨，还助力联赛发展，从新人成长为联盟标杆。 【详解】5．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Questions were raised about whether her game would translate, and her statistics in the early weeks were solid but not impressive, leading some experts to wonder if she was being overshadowed by other rookies (新手).( 人们开始质疑她的表现是否能够延续，而她在初期几周的统计数据虽然扎实，但并不突出，一些专家甚至怀疑她是否正被其他新秀所掩盖。)”可知，公众最初对她的反应是质疑她能否适应WNBA的比赛节奏，认为她早期数据平平，可能被其他新秀盖过风头。 6．推理判断题。根据第二段中““Confronted with pressure from the media in the down time, she brings an energy that’s infectious,” said Head Coach Teresa Weatherspoon. “She’s not just playing her best; she’s motivating everyone around her.”(“在媒体压力下，她总能带来一种令人难以抗拒的能量，”主教练特蕾莎·韦瑟斯普恩表示，“她不仅在发挥最佳水平，更激励着身边每一个人。”)”可推知，教练强调她不仅自己打得好，更重要的是拥有极具感染力的能量，能激励身边的每一个人。 7．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Jerseys (运动衫) with her name are flying off shelves, and Sky games, particularly on the road, are drawing new crowds eager to see the “Chi-Town Barbie.”(印有她名字的球衣热销一空，天空队的比赛（尤其是客场赛事）也吸引了大批新观众，大家都慕名前来一睹这位“芝加哥芭比”的风采。)”可知，里斯被称为“芝加哥芭比”是为了体现她的受欢迎程度和身份认同。 8．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了安吉尔·里斯初入WNBA 时备受质疑，后凭实力逆袭，成为球队核心。她人气高涨，还助力联赛发展，从新人成长为联盟标杆。由此可知，这篇文章的主旨是“一名球员的成长历程及其影响。”。 七、七选五 答案：1．C 2．E 3．A 4．G 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述邓亚萍的成长历程，从乒乓球启蒙、克服身高困难到获多项荣誉，再到退役后深造并助力体育教育，展现其奋斗精神。 1．根据上文“Deng Yaping is one of the most famous table tennis players in history. Her story of overcoming difficulties and achieving success has inspired people around the world.

(很多教练认为她太矮，成不了顶尖选手——她身高只有1.5米。)”可知，此空需点明“巨大挑战”具体是什么，即身高问题。E选项“Her height became a problem for her table tennis career. (她的身高成了她乒乓球职业生涯的一个问题。)”直接呼应上文“挑战”和下文“太矮”，符合语境。故选E项。 3．根据下文“In 1988, she joined the Chinese national table tennis team. There, she trained even harder with top coaches and teammates. Her efforts soon paid off. At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, Deng won her first Olympic gold medal. (1988年，她加入中国国家乒乓球队。在那里，她和顶尖教练、队友一起更加刻苦地训练。她的努力很快得到了回报。1992年巴塞罗那奥运会上，邓亚萍赢得了她的第一枚奥运金牌。)”可知，此空需总述“努力获得成功”的核心，引出下文具体成就。A选项“Her hard work finally led to success. (她的努力最终带来了成功。)”既呼应下文“刻苦训练、获得金牌”，又总结该阶段的核心逻辑，符合语境。故选A项。 4．根据下文“After retiring from table tennis in 1997, Deng didn’t stop pursuing new goals. She wanted to prove that athletes could succeed in other fields too. She went to university to study English, even though she had only a primary school education before. Later, she earned a master’s degree from Tsinghua University and a PhD from the University of Cambridge. 1997 年从乒乓球领域退役后，邓亚萍并未停止追寻新目标。她想证明，运动员在其他领域同样能取得成功。尽管此前只有小学学历，她仍进入大学攻读英语专业。后来，她不仅获得了清华大学的硕士学位，还拿到了剑桥大学的博士学位。)”可知，此空需点明“退役后专注教育深造”的主题，引出下文具体学习经历。G选项“After retiring, Deng focused on her education. (退役后，邓亚萍专注于学业深造。)”直接概括该阶段核心，与下文“上大学、拿学位”的内容一致，符合语境。故选G项。 5．根据上文“Today, Deng continues to make contributions to sports and education. (如今，邓亚萍仍在为体育和教育事业做贡献。)”以及下文“She often gives speeches to young people, telling them to never give up on their dreams. She also works to promote table tennis around the world, helping more people fall in love with the sport. (她经常给年轻人演讲，告诉他们永远不要放弃梦想。她还致力于在全球推广乒乓球，帮助更多的人爱上体育运动。)”可知，此空需说明她“做贡献”的具体方式——用自身经历激励他人。B选项“She uses her experience to inspire others. (她用自己的经历激励他人。)”既呼应上文“做贡献”，又引出下文“演讲、推广乒乓球”的具体行动，符合语境。故选B项。 答案：1．B 2．C 3．C 4．B 5．D 6．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了牙买加著名女飞人Shelly-Ann从不被人看好到成为奥运冠军，再到最后成为世界上跑的最快的女性，她想用自己的影响力改变能够吞噬了很多人梦想的贫民窟。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Stephen Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly-Ann at a track meet and was convinced that he had seen the beginnings of true greatness. Her times were not exactly impressive, but even so, he sensed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking. He decided to offer Shelly-Ann a place in his very strict training sessions.(Stephen Francis在一次田径比赛上观察了当时18岁的Shelly-Ann，他确信自己看到了真正伟大的开端。她的成绩并不是很好，但即便如此，他还是感觉到有什么东西想要出来，这是其他教练在评估她、发现她的不足时忽略的东西。他决定让Shelly-Ann参加他严格的训练课程)”可知，Stephen Francis 决定执教Shelly-Ann是因为尽管她有弱点，他还是感觉到她有巨大的潜力。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段“'Where did she come from?' asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again without signs.(震惊的短跑界问道：“她是从哪儿来的？”，然后得出结论，她一定是那种偶尔出现，然后又毫无征兆地消失的昙花一现的奇迹之一)”可知，当Shelly-Ann在2008年奥运会上获得冠军以后，很多人都质疑她是一颗流星而已，认为她的成功不会延续很长时间。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Maxime’s early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse’s roundabout of poverty.(Maxime很早就进入了成人世界，承担了成人的责任，这让她下定决心确保自己的孩子不会最终陷入Waterhouse这样的贫困)”可知，Maxime决定训练女儿是为了让她的孩子摆脱贫困。故选C。 4．词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse. She hopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay down their weapons. She intends to fight to make it a woman’s as well as a man’s world. (她计划为无家可归的孩子建立基金会并在Waterhouse建立社区中心；她希望鼓励牙买加人放下武器；她打算为使世界既成为男人的世界也成为女人的世界而奋斗)”可知，Shelly有很大的抱负，迫切地想为国家做很多的贡献。故选B。 5．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“As Muhammad Ali puts it, 'Champions aren’t made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them. A desire, a dream, a vision.'(正如Muhammad Ali所说，“冠军不是在健身房制造的。冠军是由内心深处的某种东西造就的。一个愿望一个梦想，一个愿景。”)”可推知，作者引用拳王的话是为了告诉我们动力才是造就运动员达到巅峰的原因。故选D。 6．主旨大意题。本文介绍了牙买加著名女飞人Shelly-Ann从不被人看好到成为奥运冠军，再到最后成为世界上跑的最快的女性。激励我们要想成功必须要经过艰苦的努力。A选项“一个伟大运动员的诞生”最符合文章标题。故选A。 7．B 8．C 9．C 10．B 11．D 12．A 【导语】文章讲述牙买加短跑名将雪莉逆袭成才，并立志回馈家乡与国家的励志故事。 【详解】7．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Her time were not exactly impressive, but even so, he seemed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking.(她当时的赛跑成绩并不算亮眼，即便如此，他仍能感受到她身上蕴藏着一股亟待迸发的力量，而其他教练评估她时，只看到她的不足，忽略了这份潜力。)”可知，教练发现她虽有不足但极具潜力，因此决定训练她。 8．细节理解题。根据第二段中““Where did she come from?” asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again without signs.(整个短跑界都大为震惊，纷纷发问：“她究竟从哪里冒出来的？”人们断定她只是昙花一现的选手，这类人偶尔崭露头角，随后便销声匿迹。)”可知，在2008年奥运会前，人们认为她的职业生涯难以长久。 9．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Maxime’s early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse’s roundabout of poverty. One of the first things Maxime used to do with Shelly-Ann was taking her to the track, and she was ready to sacrifice everything.(玛克辛早早踏入满是责任的成人世界，这让她下定决心，一定要让自己的孩子不再深陷沃特豪斯无休止的贫困循环。玛克辛最早带雪莉・安去的地方就是田径跑道，她愿意为此付出一切。)”可知，母亲训练女儿是希望她摆脱贫困。 10．词句猜测题。根据第五段中““I have so much fire burning for my country,” Shelly said. She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse. She hopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay down their weapons.

Champions are made from something they have deep inside them. A desire, a dream, a vision.(冠军并非诞生于健身房，而是源于内心的渴望、梦想与眼界。)”可知，作者借此说明内在的动力与志向，成就了顶尖运动员。 12．主旨大意题。全文讲述雪莉出身贫困、被教练发掘、刻苦训练逆袭成为传奇运动员，并心怀责任回馈社会的成长成才历程。“The Making of a Great Athlete(一名伟大运动员的成长之路)”符合题意。 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 3 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 分层作业 Unit 3 Period 1 starting out and understanding ideas 目 录 A组 巩固过关 B组 能力进阶 C组 思维拔高 拓展 链接高考 1、 将下列短语翻译为英文。 1. 作者____________ 2．提示；小费________________ 2. 会议____________ 4．折扣__________________ 5． 身份____________ 6．王国___________________ 6． 货币_____________ 8．哲学____________________ 9．位置；职位__________ 10．海洋____________________ 二、根据句意及汉语提示写出单词。 1.

At the 2026 Winter Games in Italy, the 25-year-old won a silver medal in the women’s halfpipe, marking her third Olympic medal in a row. She is now the first female snowboarder to reach this achievement in the event, having previously won gold in 2018 and 2022. However, her journey to the medal stand was far from easy. Just weeks before the Games, Kim suffered a serious injury. In late January, she tore the labrum (盂唇) in her left shoulder during training. While she described the injury as “not necessarily painful,” it caused her shoulder to repeatedly come out of place. With less than a month until the Olympics, surgery — the only way to fully repair the injury — was not an option. “You just have to keep putting it back in,” she explained. Determined to compete, Kim chose to push through. She wore a shoulder brace (支具) that greatly restricted her movement. “I wasn’t able to raise my arm and I couldn’t move my arm much at all,” she shared. The injury forced her to relearn many of her tricks, since most required using her arms. With only eight days before the final, Kim had to adapt quickly. “I kind of had to figure all that out in eight days,” she said. “The eighth day was the night of the final.” Her hard work paid off. Despite the physical challenges, Kim delivered a performance good enough for silver. Reflecting on her journey, she said, “I’m so proud of the girls. We killed it.” She also credited her support system — family, friends, and her boyfriend, Cleveland Browns player Myles Garrett — for keeping her grounded. “They reminded me why I’m here,” she added. Looking ahead, Kim plans to have surgery for her shoulder. As for competing in the 2030 Winter Games in the French Alps, she’s taking it one step at a time. “I’m not thinking about anything right now,” she admitted. 1．What do we know about Chloe Kim’s injury? A．It was caused by a car accident. B．It was cured through a simple operation. C．It made her shoulder dislocate easily. D．It brought her terrible physical pain. 2．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A．Kim’s difficulty in daily life. B．Kim’s preparation for the final. C．Kim’s ways to treat the injury. D．Kim’s new snowboarding tricks. 3．How does Kim feel about Myles Garrett? A．Grateful. B．Proud. C．Envious. D．Disappointed. 4．What can we learn from Kim’s story? A．Pride goes before a fall. B．Every cloud has a silver lining. C．A friend in need is a friend indeed. D．Nothing is impossible for a willing heart. When Angel Reese first joined the Chicago Sky as the No.7 pick in the WNBA (Women’s National Basketball Association) draft, the transition was far from smooth. The player known in college for her dominant rebounding (篮板球) and competitive spirit faced a steep learning curve against experienced professionals. Questions were raised about whether her game would translate, and her statistics in the early weeks were solid but not impressive, leading some experts to wonder if she was being overshadowed by other rookies (新手). But Reese, with her constant efforts, quickly turned a corner. In a decisive mid-season game against the Connecticut Sun, she recorded an incredible 25 points and 16 rebounds, announcing her arrival as a force. Her impact goes beyond numbers; she has transformed the Sky’s defensive identity and become an emotional leader. “Confronted with pressure from the media in the down time, she brings an energy that’s infectious,” said Head Coach Teresa Weatherspoon. “She’s not just playing her best; she’s motivating everyone around her.” Perhaps Reese’s most significant contribution is happening off the court. Jerseys (运动衫) with her name are flying off shelves, and Sky games, particularly on the road, are drawing new crowds eager to see the “Chi-Town Barbie.” The league’s television ratings and social media engagement see substantial rises during her eye-catching performances. She, along with an exceptional rookie class, is credited with driving a new era of exposure and commercial growth for the WNBA． The narrative has shifted from questioning her fit to forecasting her ceiling. A strong candidate for Rookie of the Year, Reese is no longer just a prospect; she is a cornerstone. Her journey from a screened newcomer to a league ambassador underscores how the right personality and talent, coupled with resilience, can rapidly reshape both a team’s fortunes and the sport’s cultural footprint. 5．How did the public react to Angel Reese initially? A．They didn’t pay enough attention to her role. B．They were deeply impressed by her skills. C．They thought she would win awards quickly. D．They doubted her ability as a WNBA player. 6．What can be inferred about Reese from Teresa’ s comment? A．She improves the team’s fame. B．She lifts her teammates’ spirits. C．She plays the best on the team. D．She handles media pressure easily. 7．Why was Reese called “Chi-Town Barbie”? A．To promote a commercial brand. B．To increase her media engagement. C．To reflect her popularity and identity. D．To display her catchy performances. 8．What is the main idea of the passage? A．An introduction to the Chicago Sky. B．The importance of a positive mindset. C．A player’s journey and her impact. D．The characteristics of sports culture. 七、七选五 Deng Yaping is one of the most famous table tennis players in history. Her story of overcoming difficulties and achieving success has inspired people around the world. 1 Born in Zhengzhou in 1973, Deng started playing table tennis at the age of 5. Her father, a former table tennis coach, taught her the basics of the sport. Even as a young girl, Deng showed great passion and talent for the game. She practiced for hours every day, even when she felt tired. However, Deng faced a big challenge early in her career. 2 Many coaches thought she was too short to be a top player — she only grew to 1.5 meters tall. Some even told her that she would never make it in professional table tennis. But Deng refused to give up. She believed that hard work could make up for her height. 3 In 1988, she joined the Chinese national table tennis team. There, she trained even harder with top coaches and teammates. Her efforts soon paid off. At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, Deng won her first Olympic gold medal. Four years later, she won two more gold medals at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Over her career, she won 18 world championships and 4 Olympic gold medals. 4 After retiring from table tennis in 1997, Deng didn’t stop pursuing new goals. She wanted to prove that athletes could succeed in other fields too. She went to university to study English, even though she had only a primary school education before. Later, she earned a master’s degree from Tsinghua University and a PhD from the University of Cambridge. Today, Deng continues to make contributions to sports and education. 5 She often gives speeches to young people, telling them to never give up on their dreams. She also works to promote table tennis around the world, helping more people fall in love with the sport. Deng Yaping is more than a sports star — she is a living legend. Her story shows that with hard work, determination, and a strong will, anyone can achieve their dreams. A．Her hard work finally led to success. B．She uses her experience to inspire others. C．Let’s learn more about her amazing journey. D．She decided to become a table tennis coach like her father. E．Her height became a problem for her table tennis career. F．She wanted to help more young people learn table tennis. G．After retiring, Deng focused on her education. （2016·江苏·高考真题）Not so long ago, most people didn’t know who Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce was going to become. She was just an average high athlete. There was every indication that she was just another Jamaican teenager without much of a future. However, one person wanted to change this. Stephen Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly-Ann at a track meet and was convinced that he had seen the beginnings of true greatness. Her times were not exactly impressive, but even so, he sensed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking. He decided to offer Shelly-Ann a place in his very strict training sessions. Their cooperation quickly produced results, and a few years later at Jamaica’s Olympic trials in early 2008, Shelly-Ann, who at that time only ranked number 70 in the world, beat Jamaica’s unchallenged queen of the sprint. “Where did she come from?” asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again without signs. But Shelly-Ann was to prove that she was anything but a one-hit wonder. At the Beijing Olympics she swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by becoming the first Jamaican woman ever to win the 100 metres Olympic gold. She did it again one year on at the World Championships in Berlin, becoming world champion with a time of 10.73 — the fourth fastest time ever. Shelly-Ann is a little woman with a big smile. She has a mental toughness that did not come about by chance. Her journey to becoming the fastest woman on earth has been anything but smooth and effortless. She grew up in one of Jamaica’s toughest inner-city communities known as Waterhouse, where she lived in a one-room apartment, sleeping four in a bed with her mother and two brothers. Waterhouse, one of the poorest communities in Jamaica, is a really violent and overpopulated place. Several of Shelly-Ann’s friends and family were caught up in the killings; one of her cousins was shot dead only a few streets away from where she lived. Sometimes her family didn’t have enough to eat. She ran at the school championships barefooted because she couldn’t afford shoes. Her mother Maxime, one of a family of fourteen, had been an athlete herself as a young girl but, like so many other girls in Waterhouse, had to stop after she had her first baby. Maxime’s early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse’s roundabout of poverty. One of the first things Maxime used to do with Shelly-Ann was taking her to the track, and she was ready to sacrifice everything. It didn’t take long for Shelly-Ann to realize that sports could be her way out of Waterhouse. On a summer evening in Beijing in 2008, all those long, hard hours of work and commitment finally bore fruit. The barefoot kid who just a few years previously had been living in poverty, surrounded by criminals and violence, had written a new chapter in the history of sports.

She was just an average high school athlete. There was every indication that she was just another American teenager without much of a future. However, one person wants to change this. Stephen Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly Ann at a track meet and was convinced that he had seen the beginning of true greatness. Her time were not exactly impressive, but even so, he seemed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking. He decided to offer Shelly Ann a place in his very strict training seasons. Their cooperation quickly produced results, and a few years later at Jamaica’s Olympic games in early 2008, Shelly Ann, who at that time only ranked number 70 in the world, beat Jamaica’s unchallenged queen of the sprint. “Where did she come from?” asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again without signs. But Shelly Ann was to prove that she was anything but a one-hit wonder. At the Beijing Olympic she swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by becoming the first Jamaican woman ever to win the 100 meters Olympic gold. She did it again one year on at the World Championship in Britain, becoming world champion with a time of 10.73 — the fourth record ever. Shelly-Ann is a little woman with a big smile. She has a mental toughness that did not come about by chance. Her journey to becoming the fastest woman on earth has been anything but smooth and effortless. She grew up in one of Jamaica’s toughest inner-city communities known as Waterhouse, where she lived in a one-room apartment, sleeping four in a bed with her mother and two brothers. Waterhouse, one of the poorest communities in Jamaica, is a really violent and overpopulated place. Several of Shelly-Ann’s friends and family were caught up in the killings; one of her cousins was shot dead only a few streets away from where she lived.

Her mother Maxime, one of a family of fourteen, had been an athlete herself as a young girl but, like so many other girls in Waterhouse, had to stop after she had her first baby.

At the 2026 Winter Games in Italy, the 25-year-old won a silver medal in the women’s halfpipe, marking her third Olympic medal in a row. She is now the first female snowboarder to reach this achievement in the event, having previously won gold in 2018 and 2022. However, her journey to the medal stand was far from easy. Just weeks before the Games, Kim suffered a serious injury. In late January, she tore the labrum (盂唇) in her left shoulder during training. While she described the injury as “not necessarily painful,” it caused her shoulder to repeatedly come out of place. With less than a month until the Olympics, surgery — the only way to fully repair the injury — was not an option. “You just have to keep putting it back in,” she explained. Determined to compete, Kim chose to push through. She wore a shoulder brace (支具) that greatly restricted her movement. “I wasn’t able to raise my arm and I couldn’t move my arm much at all,” she shared. The injury forced her to relearn many of her tricks, since most required using her arms. With only eight days before the final, Kim had to adapt quickly. “I kind of had to figure all that out in eight days,” she said. “The eighth day was the night of the final.” Her hard work paid off. Despite the physical challenges, Kim delivered a performance good enough for silver. Reflecting on her journey, she said, “I’m so proud of the girls. We killed it.” She also credited her support system — family, friends, and her boyfriend, Cleveland Browns player Myles Garrett — for keeping her grounded. “They reminded me why I’m here,” she added. Looking ahead, Kim plans to have surgery for her shoulder. As for competing in the 2030 Winter Games in the French Alps, she’s taking it one step at a time. “I’m not thinking about anything right now,” she admitted. 1．What do we know about Chloe Kim’s injury? A．It was caused by a car accident. B．It was cured through a simple operation. C．It made her shoulder dislocate easily. D．It brought her terrible physical pain. 2．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A．Kim’s difficulty in daily life. B．Kim’s preparation for the final. C．Kim’s ways to treat the injury. D．Kim’s new snowboarding tricks. 3．How does Kim feel about Myles Garrett? A．Grateful. B．Proud. C．Envious. D．Disappointed. 4．What can we learn from Kim’s story? A．Pride goes before a fall. B．Every cloud has a silver lining. C．A friend in need is a friend indeed. D．Nothing is impossible for a willing heart. When Angel Reese first joined the Chicago Sky as the No.7 pick in the WNBA (Women’s National Basketball Association) draft, the transition was far from smooth. The player known in college for her dominant rebounding (篮板球) and competitive spirit faced a steep learning curve against experienced professionals. Questions were raised about whether her game would translate, and her statistics in the early weeks were solid but not impressive, leading some experts to wonder if she was being overshadowed by other rookies (新手). But Reese, with her constant efforts, quickly turned a corner. In a decisive mid-season game against the Connecticut Sun, she recorded an incredible 25 points and 16 rebounds, announcing her arrival as a force. Her impact goes beyond numbers; she has transformed the Sky’s defensive identity and become an emotional leader. “Confronted with pressure from the media in the down time, she brings an energy that’s infectious,” said Head Coach Teresa Weatherspoon. “She’s not just playing her best; she’s motivating everyone around her.” Perhaps Reese’s most significant contribution is happening off the court. Jerseys (运动衫) with her name are flying off shelves, and Sky games, particularly on the road, are drawing new crowds eager to see the “Chi-Town Barbie.” The league’s television ratings and social media engagement see substantial rises during her eye-catching performances. She, along with an exceptional rookie class, is credited with driving a new era of exposure and commercial growth for the WNBA． The narrative has shifted from questioning her fit to forecasting her ceiling. A strong candidate for Rookie of the Year, Reese is no longer just a prospect; she is a cornerstone. Her journey from a screened newcomer to a league ambassador underscores how the right personality and talent, coupled with resilience, can rapidly reshape both a team’s fortunes and the sport’s cultural footprint. 5．How did the public react to Angel Reese initially? A．They didn’t pay enough attention to her role. B．They were deeply impressed by her skills. C．They thought she would win awards quickly. D．They doubted her ability as a WNBA player. 6．What can be inferred about Reese from Teresa’ s comment? A．She improves the team’s fame. B．She lifts her teammates’ spirits. C．She plays the best on the team. D．She handles media pressure easily. 7．Why was Reese called “Chi-Town Barbie”? A．To promote a commercial brand. B．To increase her media engagement. C．To reflect her popularity and identity. D．To display her catchy performances. 8．What is the main idea of the passage? A．An introduction to the Chicago Sky. B．The importance of a positive mindset. C．A player’s journey and her impact. D．The characteristics of sports culture. 答案1．C 2．B 3．A 4．D 【导语】本文讲述了美国单板滑雪名将Chloe Kim在赛前左肩重伤、无法接受手术治疗的困境下，克服身体障碍、紧急调整动作，最终斩获冬奥会银牌，连续三届收获奥运奖牌的励志故事，展现了她不畏艰难、坚持拼搏的精神。 【详解】1．细节理解题。根据第二段“In late January, she tore the labrum (盂唇) in her left shoulder during training. While she described the injury as “not necessarily painful,” it caused her shoulder to repeatedly come out of place.(一月下旬，她在训练中左肩盂唇撕裂。虽说她称伤势并非十分疼痛，但这会导致肩膀反复脱臼。)”可知，Kim的肩部盂唇撕裂使她的肩膀容易脱臼。 2．主旨大意题。根据第三段“Determined to compete, Kim chose to push through. She wore a shoulder brace (支具) that greatly restricted her movement. “I wasn’t able to raise my arm and I couldn’t move my arm much at all,” she shared. The injury forced her to relearn many of her tricks, since most required using her arms. With only eight days before the final, Kim had to adapt quickly.(Kim决心参赛，选择咬牙坚持。她佩戴了肩部护具，这极大地限制了活动幅度。她坦言：“我抬不起胳膊，手臂几乎无法活动。” 由于大部分动作都需要借助手臂完成，伤势迫使她重新练习诸多技巧。距离决赛仅剩八天，金必须快速调整适应。)”可知，第三段主要讲述了她为决赛做的准备。 3．推理判断题。根据第四段“She also credited her support system — family, friends, and her boyfriend, Cleveland Browns player Myles Garrett — for keeping her grounded.(她也坦言，家人、朋友以及男友——克利夫兰布朗队球员Myles Garrett——这些身边的支持者，让她始终心态沉稳、脚踏实地。)”可推断，Kim对男友Myles Garrett充满了感激之情。 4．推理判断题。本文讲述了美国单板滑雪名将Chloe Kim在赛前左肩重伤、无法接受手术治疗的困境下，克服身体障碍、紧急调整动作，最终斩获冬奥会银牌，连续三届收获奥运奖牌的励志故事，展现了她不畏艰难、坚持拼搏的精神。由此可知，我们从Kim的故事中学到了“有志者事竟成”的道理。 5．D 6．B 7．C 8．C 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了安吉尔·里斯初入WNBA时备受质疑，后凭实力逆袭，成为球队核心。她人气高涨，还助力联赛发展，从新人成长为联盟标杆。 【详解】5．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Questions were raised about whether her game would translate, and her statistics in the early weeks were solid but not impressive, leading some experts to wonder if she was being overshadowed by other rookies (新手).( 人们开始质疑她的表现是否能够延续，而她在初期几周的统计数据虽然扎实，但并不突出，一些专家甚至怀疑她是否正被其他新秀所掩盖。)”可知，公众最初对她的反应是质疑她能否适应WNBA的比赛节奏，认为她早期数据平平，可能被其他新秀盖过风头。 6．推理判断题。根据第二段中““Confronted with pressure from the media in the down time, she brings an energy that’s infectious,” said Head Coach Teresa Weatherspoon. “She’s not just playing her best; she’s motivating everyone around her.”(“在媒体压力下，她总能带来一种令人难以抗拒的能量，”主教练特蕾莎·韦瑟斯普恩表示，“她不仅在发挥最佳水平，更激励着身边每一个人。”)”可推知，教练强调她不仅自己打得好，更重要的是拥有极具感染力的能量，能激励身边的每一个人。 7．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Jerseys (运动衫) with her name are flying off shelves, and Sky games, particularly on the road, are drawing new crowds eager to see the “Chi-Town Barbie.”(印有她名字的球衣热销一空，天空队的比赛（尤其是客场赛事）也吸引了大批新观众，大家都慕名前来一睹这位“芝加哥芭比”的风采。)”可知，里斯被称为“芝加哥芭比”是为了体现她的受欢迎程度和身份认同。 8．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了安吉尔·里斯初入WNBA 时备受质疑，后凭实力逆袭，成为球队核心。她人气高涨，还助力联赛发展，从新人成长为联盟标杆。由此可知，这篇文章的主旨是“一名球员的成长历程及其影响。”。 七、七选五 Deng Yaping is one of the most famous table tennis players in history. Her story of overcoming difficulties and achieving success has inspired people around the world. 1 Born in Zhengzhou in 1973, Deng started playing table tennis at the age of 5. Her father, a former table tennis coach, taught her the basics of the sport. Even as a young girl, Deng showed great passion and talent for the game. She practiced for hours every day, even when she felt tired. However, Deng faced a big challenge early in her career. 2 Many coaches thought she was too short to be a top player — she only grew to 1.5 meters tall. Some even told her that she would never make it in professional table tennis. But Deng refused to give up. She believed that hard work could make up for her height. 3 In 1988, she joined the Chinese national table tennis team. There, she trained even harder with top coaches and teammates. Her efforts soon paid off. At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, Deng won her first Olympic gold medal. Four years later, she won two more gold medals at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Over her career, she won 18 world championships and 4 Olympic gold medals. 4 After retiring from table tennis in 1997, Deng didn’t stop pursuing new goals. She wanted to prove that athletes could succeed in other fields too. She went to university to study English, even though she had only a primary school education before. Later, she earned a master’s degree from Tsinghua University and a PhD from the University of Cambridge. Today, Deng continues to make contributions to sports and education. 5 She often gives speeches to young people, telling them to never give up on their dreams. She also works to promote table tennis around the world, helping more people fall in love with the sport. Deng Yaping is more than a sports star — she is a living legend. Her story shows that with hard work, determination, and a strong will, anyone can achieve their dreams. A．Her hard work finally led to success. B．She uses her experience to inspire others. C．Let’s learn more about her amazing journey. D．She decided to become a table tennis coach like her father. E．Her height became a problem for her table tennis career. F．She wanted to help more young people learn table tennis.

There was every indication that she was just another Jamaican teenager without much of a future. However, one person wanted to change this. Stephen Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly-Ann at a track meet and was convinced that he had seen the beginnings of true greatness. Her times were not exactly impressive, but even so, he sensed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking. He decided to offer Shelly-Ann a place in his very strict training sessions. Their cooperation quickly produced results, and a few years later at Jamaica’s Olympic trials in early 2008, Shelly-Ann, who at that time only ranked number 70 in the world, beat Jamaica’s unchallenged queen of the sprint. “Where did she come from?” asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again without signs. But Shelly-Ann was to prove that she was anything but a one-hit wonder. At the Beijing Olympics she swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by becoming the first Jamaican woman ever to win the 100 metres Olympic gold. She did it again one year on at the World Championships in Berlin, becoming world champion with a time of 10.73 — the fourth fastest time ever. Shelly-Ann is a little woman with a big smile. She has a mental toughness that did not come about by chance. Her journey to becoming the fastest woman on earth has been anything but smooth and effortless. She grew up in one of Jamaica’s toughest inner-city communities known as Waterhouse, where she lived in a one-room apartment, sleeping four in a bed with her mother and two brothers. Waterhouse, one of the poorest communities in Jamaica, is a really violent and overpopulated place. Several of Shelly-Ann’s friends and family were caught up in the killings; one of her cousins was shot dead only a few streets away from where she lived. Sometimes her family didn’t have enough to eat. She ran at the school championships barefooted because she couldn’t afford shoes. Her mother Maxime, one of a family of fourteen, had been an athlete herself as a young girl but, like so many other girls in Waterhouse, had to stop after she had her first baby. Maxime’s early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse’s roundabout of poverty. One of the first things Maxime used to do with Shelly-Ann was taking her to the track, and she was ready to sacrifice everything. It didn’t take long for Shelly-Ann to realize that sports could be her way out of Waterhouse. On a summer evening in Beijing in 2008, all those long, hard hours of work and commitment finally bore fruit. The barefoot kid who just a few years previously had been living in poverty, surrounded by criminals and violence, had written a new chapter in the history of sports. But Shelly-Ann’s victory was far greater than that. The night she won Olympic gold in Beijing, the routine murders in Waterhouse and the drug wars in the neighbouring streets stopped. The dark cloud above one of the world’s toughest criminal neighbourhoods simply disappeared for a few days. “I have so much fire burning for my country,” Shelly said. She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse. She hopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay down their weapons. She intends to fight to make it a woman’s as well as a man’s world. As Muhammad Ali puts it, “Champions aren’t made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them. A desire, a dream, a vision.” One of the things Shelly-Ann can be proud of is her understanding of this truth. 1．Why did Stephen Francis decide to coach Shelly-Ann?

She was just an average high school athlete. There was every indication that she was just another American teenager without much of a future. However, one person wants to change this. Stephen Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly Ann at a track meet and was convinced that he had seen the beginning of true greatness. Her time were not exactly impressive, but even so, he seemed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking.

Her times were not exactly impressive, but even so, he sensed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking. He decided to offer Shelly-Ann a place in his very strict training sessions.(Stephen Francis在一次田径比赛上观察了当时18岁的Shelly-Ann，他确信自己看到了真正伟大的开端。她的成绩并不是很好，但即便如此，他还是感觉到有什么东西想要出来，这是其他教练在评估她、发现她的不足时忽略的东西。他决定让Shelly-Ann参加他严格的训练课程)”可知，Stephen Francis 决定执教Shelly-Ann是因为尽管她有弱点，他还是感觉到她有巨大的潜力。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段“'Where did she come from?' asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again without signs.(震惊的短跑界问道：“她是从哪儿来的？”，然后得出结论，她一定是那种偶尔出现，然后又毫无征兆地消失的昙花一现的奇迹之一)”可知，当Shelly-Ann在2008年奥运会上获得冠军以后，很多人都质疑她是一颗流星而已，认为她的成功不会延续很长时间。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Maxime’s early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse’s roundabout of poverty.(Maxime很早就进入了成人世界，承担了成人的责任，这让她下定决心确保自己的孩子不会最终陷入Waterhouse这样的贫困)”可知，Maxime决定训练女儿是为了让她的孩子摆脱贫困。故选C。 4．词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse. She hopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay down their weapons. She intends to fight to make it a woman’s as well as a man’s world.

Champions are made from something they have deep inside them. A desire, a dream, a vision.'(正如Muhammad Ali所说，“冠军不是在健身房制造的。冠军是由内心深处的某种东西造就的。一个愿望一个梦想，一个愿景。”)”可推知，作者引用拳王的话是为了告诉我们动力才是造就运动员达到巅峰的原因。故选D。 6．主旨大意题。本文介绍了牙买加著名女飞人Shelly-Ann从不被人看好到成为奥运冠军，再到最后成为世界上跑的最快的女性。激励我们要想成功必须要经过艰苦的努力。A选项“一个伟大运动员的诞生”最符合文章标题。故选A。 7．B 8．C 9．C 10．B 11．D 12．A 【导语】文章讲述牙买加短跑名将雪莉逆袭成才，并立志回馈家乡与国家的励志故事。 【详解】7．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Her time were not exactly impressive, but even so, he seemed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking.(她当时的赛跑成绩并不算亮眼，即便如此，他仍能感受到她身上蕴藏着一股亟待迸发的力量，而其他教练评估她时，只看到她的不足，忽略了这份潜力。)”可知，教练发现她虽有不足但极具潜力，因此决定训练她。 8．细节理解题。根据第二段中““Where did she come from?” asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again without signs.(整个短跑界都大为震惊，纷纷发问：“她究竟从哪里冒出来的？”人们断定她只是昙花一现的选手，这类人偶尔崭露头角，随后便销声匿迹。)”可知，在2008年奥运会前，人们认为她的职业生涯难以长久。 9．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Maxime’s early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse’s roundabout of poverty.
