Passage 2 Sports watching has long served as a source of enjoyment and relaxation. It offers a sense of community and belonging among audiences, which not only makes individuals feel good but also benefits society by improving well-being (健康快乐). However, existing studies on the relationship between sports watching and well-being, which only focus on sports fans, offer only limited evidence. Therefore, Shintaro Sato and his research team carried out three different studies to explore the relationship between sports watching and overall well-being in the general population. In the first study, the researchers analyzed publicly available data on the influence of watching sports on 20,000 residents. The results confirmed that watching sports on a regular basis helps improve people’s well-being. The second study involved an online survey with 208 participants. The team showed them various sports videos, recording their well-being both before and after watching. And they found that participants showed greater improvements in well-being when watching popular sports such as baseball, compared with less popular sports like cricket (板球). However, the most important aspect of this research appeared in the third study. The team tracked the brain activity of 14 participants while they watched sports videos. The results suggested that sports watching activated the brain’s reward circuits (奖励回路) and produced feelings of pleasure. Besides, in the structural image analysis, the study found that individuals who reported watching sports more frequently showed greater gray matter volume in regions associated with reward circuits. This suggests that regular sports watching, particularly popular ones, can gradually change people’s brain structure and offer long-term mental benefits. “Given the findings of the research,” as an expert put it, “it can make great differences to our society, especially in sports management practices and policy-making in the context of public health.” 1．Why did Sato’s team carry out their research? A．To further prove previous studies. B．To promote less popular sports events. C．To upgrade community sports facilities. D．To improve athletes’ mental well-being. 2．Which participants would improve their well-being most from the study? A．Watching cricket on a regular basis. B．Watching baseball on a regular basis. C．Watching cricket on an occasional basis. D．Watching baseball on an occasional basis. 3．What can we learn about sports watching from the third study? A．It causes negative brain emotions. B．It greatly improves people’s memory. C．It increases gray matter in all brain areas. D．It gradually leads to brain structural changes. 4．What does the last paragraph talk about? A．Importance of public health. B．Suggestions for sports watching. C．Possible direction for further study. D．Potential application of the findings. Passage 3 On the giant screen, two scores flashed: 8-11, 4-11. Liang Jingkun was already two games down against Tomokazu Harimoto. Japan’s fans erupted in cheers. China’s bench (替补席) fell silent. Head coach Wang Hao tightened his fists (拳头). However, Liang refused to give up. He won the third game 11-9, and then edged the fourth 13-11. In the deciding game, Liang fell behind 3-8. Many thought it was over, but Liang kept attacking. He scored eight straight points and completed a stunning 11-8 comeback victory. After the match, sweat still pouring down his face, Liang smiled and told China Central Television, “I thank myself for never giving up. That’s why a rebirth was possible.” Liang’s dramatic comeback style has earned him a famous nickname, “the god who controls table tennis TV ratings”. One fan joked online, “Watching Liang play tortures not only the coaches but also his opponents (对手).” Liang is known for being a slow starter. Against fast attacking players, he often falls behind early. As the match goes on, Liang usually becomes stronger. His shots gain more spin (旋转) and power. He likes to slow the game down and pull opponents into long rallies (连续对打), where he feels most comfortable. With strong defense and powerful attacks, he often wears his opponents down and turns the match around. He always gives them hope first, and then takes it away completely. Many fans enjoy his style. At 29 years old, Liang is no longer considered young in table tennis. However, the incredible comeback victories in London will surely become defining moments in his career. 1．What happened after Liang Jingkun was two games down? A．He gave up gradually. B．China’s bench erupted in cheers. C．His coach decided to replace him. D．He kept fighting and won the game. 2．What does the underlined word “tortures” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Makes anxious. B．Makes comfortable. C．Makes frightened. D．Makes relaxed. 3．What can we know about Liang Jingkun’s playing style? A．He dislikes slow games. B．He usually starts very fast. C．He’s bad at using defense skills. D．He offers hope and then takes it back. 4．What can we learn from Liang Jingkun? A．We should keep trying and never give up. B．We should start fast in everything we do. C．We shouldn’t make fun of our opponents. D．We should play table tennis to keep healthy. Passage 4 Swimming is a great sport that builds up fitness and relieves daily stress. When it comes to competitive swimming races, excellent skills and good race strategies matter a lot. If you dream of swimming faster and winning matches, here are some practical suggestions. 1 Scientific breathing training runs through the whole preparation process. Proper breathing skills can help swimmers save physical energy in the water and avoid feeling out of breath easily. Stable breath control offers steady power support during long-distance swimming. 2 Apart from mastering breathing rules, standard stroke practice cannot be ignored. You need to correct your arm and leg movements repeatedly in daily training. 3 Gradually you will form good muscle memory and reduce unnecessary physical consumption. Standard moves also make your swimming posture more smooth and effective. Getting familiar with the competition pool environment is also necessary. Different from ordinary leisure pools, competition pools have standard depth, fixed lane settings and special water flow. 4 Thus, you can adjust your swimming state and rhythm ahead of time. In addition, you should learn to arrange physical strength reasonably in the race. Do not use up all your energy at the very beginning. Try to keep a steady speed and speed up properly in the final stage. Never be affected by the pace of other competitors easily. 5 Extreme tiredness will prevent you performing well and getting ideal rankings. A．Mastering correct breathing skills comes first. B．Most swimmers only focus on daily eating habits. C．Practise standard strokes again and again in the pool. D．This skill also helps you keep calm in fierce competitions. E．More competitors will surely make you feel more nervous. F．It is helpful to adapt to the pool environment before matches. G．Making full use of rest time is also important for swimmers. Passage 5 You love your child and want to do what is best for them. Yes, even right down to choosing the right sport for your child. It can be a daunting task! With so many options available, it is important to find a sport that aligns with your child’s interests, abilities, and personality. At CAL Sports Academy, we believe in helping parents make informed decisions that will foster a lifelong love for sports in their children. 1 Understand Your Child’s Interests and Abilities 2 Pay attention to the activities they naturally gravitate towards and the skills they excel in. It may be running, jumping, throwing, or strategic thinking, understanding these preferences will help you narrow down the options. 3 Assess your child’s physical and emotional readiness for different sports. Some sports require higher levels of physical fitness and coordination, others may demand emotional resilience and teamwork. Ensure that the sport you choose matches your child’s developmental stage and capabilities. Explore a Variety of Options Expose your child to a variety of sports to see what they enjoy the most. This can include team sports like soccer and basketball, individual sports like swimming and gymnastics, or even less traditional options like martial arts and dance. 4 Prioritize Enjoyment and Long-Term Development 5 If children enjoy what they are doing, they are more likely to stick with it and develop their skills over time. Look for sports programs that emphasize fun, skill development, and personal growth. Match the Sport to Your Child’s Personality When choosing a sport for your child, consider their personality. Some children thrive in team environments, while others prefer individual activities. Introverted kids might enjoy solo sports like tennis or swimming, while extroverted children may flourish in team sports like soccer or basketball. A．Consider Physical and Emotional Readiness B．Below are five tips to guide you through the process. C．Trying different activities will help your child discover their passion. D．The primary goal should be for your child to have fun and enjoy the sport. E．Choose a sport that fits well with your lifestyle and allows for a healthy balance. F．Consider your family’s schedule and your child’s other interests and commitments. G．The first step in choosing the right sport is to recognize your child’s interests and skills.

D．Potential application of the findings. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．D 4．D 【导语】文章主要介绍了一项新研究证实经常观看体育赛事（尤其是热门项目）能通过激活大脑奖励回路来改善大众身心健康。 1．推理判断题。​根据第一段中“However, existing studies on the relationship between sports watching and well-being, which only focus on sports fans, offer only limited evidence.(然而，现有关于观看体育赛事与幸福感之间关系的研究仅聚焦于体育迷群体，提供的证据十分有限)”以及第二段中“Therefore, Shintaro Sato and his research team carried out three different studies to explore the relationship between sports watching and overall well-being in the general population.(因此，Shintaro Sato及其研究团队开展了三项不同的研究，旨在探究普通人群中观看体育赛事与整体幸福感之间的关系)”可知，由于此前的研究存在局限性，Shintaro Sato团队开展这项研究是为了进一步探索并证实之前研究中提到的两者之间的关系。 2．推理判断题。​根据第三段中“And they found that participants showed greater improvements in well-being when watching popular sports such as baseball, compared with less popular sports like cricket (板球).(他们发现，与观看板球等冷门体育项目相比，参与者在观看棒球等热门体育项目时，幸福感的提升幅度更大)”以及第四段中“This suggests that regular sports watching, particularly popular ones, can gradually change people’s brain structure and offer long-term mental benefits.(这表明，经常观看体育赛事，尤其是热门项目，能够逐渐改变人们的大脑结构，并带来长期的心理健康益处)”可知，经常观看热门体育项目（如棒球）对提升幸福感的效果最好。 3．细节理解题。​根据第四段中“Besides, in the structural image analysis, the study found that individuals who reported watching sports more frequently showed greater gray matter volume in regions associated with reward circuits.(此外，在结构影像分析中，研究发现，报告更频繁观看体育赛事的个体在与奖励回路相关的脑区显示出更大的灰质体积)”以及“This suggests that regular sports watching, particularly popular ones, can gradually change people’s brain structure and offer long-term mental benefits.(这表明，经常观看体育赛事，尤其是热门项目，能够逐渐改变人们的大脑结构，并带来长期的心理健康益处)”可知，第三项研究结果表明，经常观看体育赛事会逐渐导致大脑结构的改变。 4．主旨大意题。​根据最后一段““Given the findings of the research,” as an expert put it, “it can make great differences to our society, especially in sports management practices and policy-making in the context of public health.”(“鉴于这项研究的发现，”正如一位专家所言，“它将对我们的社会产生重大影响，特别是在体育管理实践和公共卫生背景下的政策制定方面。”)”可知，最后一段主要讨论的是该研究发现在体育管理和公共政策方面的潜在应用价值。 Passage 3 On the giant screen, two scores flashed: 8-11, 4-11. Liang Jingkun was already two games down against Tomokazu Harimoto. Japan’s fans erupted in cheers. China’s bench (替补席) fell silent. Head coach Wang Hao tightened his fists (拳头). However, Liang refused to give up. He won the third game 11-9, and then edged the fourth 13-11. In the deciding game, Liang fell behind 3-8. Many thought it was over, but Liang kept attacking. He scored eight straight points and completed a stunning 11-8 comeback victory. After the match, sweat still pouring down his face, Liang smiled and told China Central Television, “I thank myself for never giving up. That’s why a rebirth was possible.” Liang’s dramatic comeback style has earned him a famous nickname, “the god who controls table tennis TV ratings”. One fan joked online, “Watching Liang play tortures not only the coaches but also his opponents (对手).” Liang is known for being a slow starter. Against fast attacking players, he often falls behind early. As the match goes on, Liang usually becomes stronger. His shots gain more spin (旋转) and power. He likes to slow the game down and pull opponents into long rallies (连续对打), where he feels most comfortable. With strong defense and powerful attacks, he often wears his opponents down and turns the match around. He always gives them hope first, and then takes it away completely. Many fans enjoy his style. At 29 years old, Liang is no longer considered young in table tennis. However, the incredible comeback victories in London will surely become defining moments in his career. 1．What happened after Liang Jingkun was two games down? A．He gave up gradually. B．China’s bench erupted in cheers. C．His coach decided to replace him. D．He kept fighting and won the game. 2．What does the underlined word “tortures” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Makes anxious. B．Makes comfortable. C．Makes frightened. D．Makes relaxed. 3．What can we know about Liang Jingkun’s playing style? A．He dislikes slow games. B．He usually starts very fast. C．He’s bad at using defense skills. D．He offers hope and then takes it back. 4．What can we learn from Liang Jingkun? A．We should keep trying and never give up. B．We should start fast in everything we do. C．We shouldn’t make fun of our opponents. D．We should play table tennis to keep healthy. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．D 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章讲述了乒乓球运动员梁靖崑在对阵日本选手张本智和的比赛中两局落后的情况下，没有放弃，坚持作战，最终完成逆转获胜的故事，同时介绍了梁靖崑慢热、擅长逆风翻盘的打球风格，传达了永不言弃的精神。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“However, Liang refused to give up. He won the third game 11-9, and then edged the fourth 13-11. In the deciding game, Liang fell behind 3-8. Many thought it was over, but Liang kept attacking. He scored eight straight points and completed a stunning 11-8 comeback victory.(然而，梁拒绝放弃。他以11比9赢下第三局，随后又以13比11险胜第四局。在决胜局中，梁一度以3比8落后，许多人认为比赛已无悬念，但他仍坚持进攻，连得八分，最终以11比8实现惊人的逆转胜利。)”可知，梁靖崑落后两局后没有放弃，依旧坚持战斗，最终赢下了比赛。 2．词义猜测题。根据前文内容“Liang’s dramatic comeback style has earned him a famous nickname, ‘the god who controls table tennis TV ratings’.(梁靖崑极具戏剧性的逆转打法，让他收获了一个响亮外号 ——“乒坛收视之神”。)”以及后文对他的比赛风格的描述“He likes to slow the game down and pull opponents into long rallies(连续对打), where he feels most comfortable. With strong defense and powerful attacks, he often wears his opponents down and turns the match around. He always gives them hope first, and then takes it away completely.(他喜欢放慢节奏，将对手拖入漫长的拉锯战中，这正是他感到最自在的时候。凭借出色的防守和强大的进攻能力，他常常耗尽对手的体力，从而扭转比赛局势。他总是先给予对手希望，然后彻底夺走这份希望。)”可知，梁靖崑擅长戏剧性逆转、赛况起伏极大的打球风格，这种充满反转和拉扯的比赛会让教练和对手都感到焦虑紧张。因此推知“tortures”的含义为“使人焦虑”，只有A选项符合。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容“He always gives them hope first, and then takes it away completely.(他总是先给他们希望，然后彻底将其夺走。)”可知，他的比赛风格是先给对手希望，再夺走胜利。 4．推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容“I thank myself for never giving up. That’s why a rebirth was possible.(我感谢自己从未放弃。这就是逆转翻盘得以实现的原因。)”并结合全文梁靖崑落后不放弃最终获胜的故事，可推知，我们应当从他身上学到坚持尝试、永不放弃的品质。 Passage 4 Swimming is a great sport that builds up fitness and relieves daily stress. When it comes to competitive swimming races, excellent skills and good race strategies matter a lot. If you dream of swimming faster and winning matches, here are some practical suggestions. 1 Scientific breathing training runs through the whole preparation process. Proper breathing skills can help swimmers save physical energy in the water and avoid feeling out of breath easily. Stable breath control offers steady power support during long-distance swimming. 2 Apart from mastering breathing rules, standard stroke practice cannot be ignored. You need to correct your arm and leg movements repeatedly in daily training. 3 Gradually you will form good muscle memory and reduce unnecessary physical consumption. Standard moves also make your swimming posture more smooth and effective. Getting familiar with the competition pool environment is also necessary. Different from ordinary leisure pools, competition pools have standard depth, fixed lane settings and special water flow. 4 Thus, you can adjust your swimming state and rhythm ahead of time. In addition, you should learn to arrange physical strength reasonably in the race. Do not use up all your energy at the very beginning. Try to keep a steady speed and speed up properly in the final stage. Never be affected by the pace of other competitors easily. 5 Extreme tiredness will prevent you performing well and getting ideal rankings. A．Mastering correct breathing skills comes first. B．Most swimmers only focus on daily eating habits. C．Practise standard strokes again and again in the pool. D．This skill also helps you keep calm in fierce competitions. E．More competitors will surely make you feel more nervous. F．It is helpful to adapt to the pool environment before matches. G．Making full use of rest time is also important for swimmers. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．C 4．F 5．G 【导语】这篇文章给出竞技游泳取胜的四点建议：掌握正确呼吸、反复规范划水、赛前适应赛场泳池、比赛合理分配体力并利用休息避免过度疲劳。 1．本空位于段首，是本段的主旨句。后文“Scientific breathing training runs through the whole preparation process. Proper breathing skills can help swimmers save physical energy in the water and avoid feeling out of breath easily. Stable breath control offers steady power support during long-distance swimming.( 科学的呼吸训练贯穿整个准备过程。正确的呼吸技巧可以帮助游泳者在水中节省体力，避免容易感到气短。稳定的呼吸控制能在长距离游泳时提供稳定的动力支持。)”全程围绕“科学的呼吸训练”展开，介绍正确呼吸技巧的作用。A 项“Mastering correct breathing skills comes first.(掌握正确的呼吸技巧是首要的。)”直接点明本段核心，总领全段内容，与后文逻辑衔接紧密。 2．前文“Proper breathing skills can help swimmers save physical energy in the water and avoid feeling out of breath easily. Stable breath control offers steady power support during long-distance swimming.( 正确的呼吸技巧可以帮助游泳者在水中节省体力，避免容易感到气短。稳定的呼吸控制能在长距离游泳时提供持续的动力支持。)”分别介绍了呼吸技巧的两个作用：节省体力、为长距离游泳提供稳定动力。本空位于段尾，应继续补充呼吸技巧的益处。D项 “This skill also helps you keep calm in fierce competitions.(这项技能也能帮助你在激烈的比赛中保持冷静。)”中，This skill 精准指代前文的呼吸控制技巧，用 also承接上文的好处，逻辑连贯。 3．本段主题是标准划水练习，上文“You need to correct your arm and leg movements repeatedly in daily training.( 你需要在日常训练中反复纠正手臂和腿部的动作。)”指出日常训练中要反复纠正手臂、腿部动作，下文“Gradually you will form good muscle memory and reduce unnecessary physical consumption.( 渐渐地，你会形成良好的肌肉记忆，减少不必要的体力消耗。)”说明最终会形成肌肉记忆、减少体力消耗。C 项“Practise standard strokes again and again in the pool.(在泳池里反复练习标准划水动作。)”承接前文的“反复纠正动作”，引出后文的“形成肌肉记忆”，是训练过程的自然过渡。 4．本段主题是熟悉比赛泳池环境，上文“Different from ordinary leisure pools, competition pools have standard depth, fixed lane settings and special water flow.( 与普通休闲泳池不同，竞技泳池具有标准的深度、固定的泳道布局以及特殊的水流设置。)”说明比赛泳池与休闲泳池的差异，下文“Thus, you can adjust your swimming state and rhythm ahead of time.( 因此，你可以提前调整自己的游泳状态和节奏。)”指出可以提前调整游泳状态与节奏。F项“It is helpful to adapt to the pool environment before matches.(赛前适应泳池环境是很有帮助的。)” 承接前文的环境差异，同时引出后文“提前调整状态”的结果，构成“环境有差异→赛前适应→提前调整”的完整逻辑链。 5．本段核心是比赛中合理分配体力，前文“Try to keep a steady speed and speed up properly in the final stage. Never be affected by the pace of other competitors easily.( 尽量保持稳定的速度，并在最后阶段适时加快。切忌轻易受其他选手节奏的影响。)”已经给出“不猛冲、保匀速、不被他人带节奏”等比赛中的体力管理建议，下文“Extreme tiredness will prevent you performing well and getting ideal rankings.( 过度疲劳会阻碍你的发挥，影响取得理想排名。)”点明极度疲劳的危害。G 项“Making full use of rest time is also important for swimmers.(充分利用休息时间对游泳者来说也很重要。)”是体力管理的另一重要维度，补充了赛场节奏之外的体力恢复方法，共同服务于“合理安排体力”的段落主旨，同时呼应后文“避免极度疲劳”的内容。 Passage 5 You love your child and want to do what is best for them.

As a result, I fell ill easily and lacked energy, which greatly affected my study and life.     Then I read an article that said jogging would make a difference to health. I came to realize the importance of doing sports. Things began to change. Instead of rarely working out, I made it a rule to run every day.     Finally, I kept up going for a jog for at least half an hour daily. Thanks to it, I have become both more energetic and healthier. 1 / 13 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
