She helped UConn win the 2025 NCAA championship, broke UConn’s steals record and became the third-fastest player in program history to score 1,000 career points. Yet she does not seek the spotlight. Her talent speaks for itself. Basketball is in Strong’s blood. Her mother was a WNBA player; her father played professionally in Europe. Sarah started training at age seven. Every Sunday, she and her dad spent hours in a gym, learning every aspect of the game. But one thing she lacked was confidence. A major setback came in late December of her freshman year at UConn. She missed two free throws in the final seconds, and the team lost by two points. The game bothered her. She spent her Christmas break watching it over and over. But she learned to stop spiraling over mistakes. She started talking to her coaches and family after every game, taking their advice, and then letting it go. “It’s a game at the end of the day,” she says. “I can’t go back to change it. Just focus on the next game.” That attitude has shaped who she is. Thanks to her quiet determination, next season the Huskies will be Strong’s team. She is about to become the primary face of the program. Strong, however, doesn’t care about individual success. She leads by example. She hates the thought of making an award acceptance speech. “I’m not really focused on the spotlight,” she says. “The only pressure I feel is from my coaches and showing up for my team.” She calls the shots about what you see, on and off the court. And she remains a mystery-a superstar who lets her game speak, while keeping everything else to herself. And that’s exactly how she wants it. 24．(10分)What can we know about Strong’s parents? A．Her father forced her to play basketball. B．They both played basketball professionally. C．Her mother was more famous than her father. D．They met each other while playing in Europe. 25．What does the underlined word “spiraling” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Staying calm. B．Getting upset. C．Feeling excited. D．Becoming angry. 26．What can be inferred about Strong’s personality from the last paragraph? A．Anxious and shy. B．Outgoing and caring. C．Ambitious and curious. D．Modest and strong-minded. 27．What does Strong’s story show? A．Still waters run deep. B．Practice makes perfect. C．Every cloud has a silver lining. D．Don’t judge a book by its cover. （本题10分）Many of us start exercising in the hope of losing unwanted pounds. Unquestionably, aiming to be more active is a good thing. But if the main reason is to lose weight, your plan could very well come to nothing. For starters, exercise is typically futile for weight loss. Take walking for example. A 150-pound person who walks for 30 minutes will burn, on average, around 140 calories. That’s equal to one can of soda — not exactly a great return on your investment of time and effort. It’s much easier just to skip the soda. When exercise is added to a diet, the results are equally unimpressive. Researchers found that a combination (组合) of dieting and exercising produced no greater weight loss than dieting alone after six months. At 12 months, the diet-and-exercise combination showed an advantage, but it was slight — about 4 pounds on average. In studies where exercise has produced meaningful weight loss, participants burned at least 400 to 500 calories during each workout on five or more days a week. To achieve that, a 150-pound person would need to walk at least 90 minutes or run 30 minutes each day. In short, the time spent exercising needs to go well beyond what most of us are willing or able to do. And even if we manage to make that much effort, our bodies often make up for it by increasing hunger and slowing down metabolism (新陈代谢), which over time limits how many pounds we lose. When exercise fails to meet our weight-loss expectations, we often stop working out. Perhaps the biggest problem with exercising to drop pounds is that it turns physical activity into punishment — a price we have to pay for a slimmer body. How many times have you heard someone say “I’ll need to do extra exercise” after eating too much? We treat exercise as a form of self-punishment for being “bad”. In this case, we’re unlikely to keep doing it for very long. The conclusion is that we’re more likely to treat exercise positively and actually do it when we focus on our well-being rather than our weight. 28．(10分)What does the underlined word “futile” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Necessary. B．Basic. C．Fruitless. D．Painful. 29．How does the author view the results of dieting combined with exercise? A．Ineffective. B．Limited. C．Satisfactory. D．Significant. 30．What might happen when a 150-pound person runs 30 minutes daily? A．He might eat more than usual. B．He will burn 500 calories a week. C．He might have faster metabolism. D．He will lose weight very quickly. 31．What is the author’s suggestion regarding exercise? A．Lowering our weight-loss expectations. B．Exercising more after eating too much. C．Sticking to our regular exercise routine. D．Changing our attitude toward working out. （本题10分）Sports might have started as a way to survive. Long ago, people ran, jumped, and climbed to stay alive. Hunters were known for their special skills. Wall paintings from centuries ago, showing activities like wrestling or dancing, were found in Egypt. The ancient Greeks made a big change by holding the first Olympic Games. Modern sports began in England in the early 19th century and then spread globally. These became the models for sports such as football that we play now. Organized sports, whether swimming or ice hockey (冰球), are serious forms of play. There are rules to obey, skills and positions to learn, and plans to carry out. Team sports like soccer require you to work with teammates, while individual sports such as tennis focus on your personal performance. There’s no doubt that sports are valuable. The American Academy of Pediatrics says play is important for kids’ and teens’ thinking, bodies, social lives and feelings. Sports exercise our bodies and teach us about ourselves and our world. Organized sports get us using our bodies and minds, which makes us more imaginative, curious, and creative. The skills we learn can help us in school and later at work. In a perfect world, sports would always be fun. But in reality, sports can cause physical hurt like broken bones, and also harm in mind. In team sports, misunderstandings and hurt feelings are part of the learning process. Sports are supposed to bring people together, but they can also drive people apart. But even when they’re not always a cheerful experience, they show us how to face life’s challenges. You don’t have to be on a school team. But many, like school coaches, have found ways to make play their work, which makes them feel whole. There’s no better place to play and learn about the world than on a sports field. No matter what sport you choose, the key is to play for fun. When you do, you’re already a winner. 32．(10分)What can we infer about the origin of early sports? A．It was led by ancient hunters. B．It came from artistic activities. C．It was driven by practical needs. D．It started with the ancient Olympic Games. 33．Why is play important for teenagers? A．It helps all-round development. B．It teaches them ancient sports. C．It can reduce their body injuries. D．It can merely do good to their studies. 34．Which may the author agree with? A．Physical hurt is always avoidable in sports. B．People can play mainly for fun and enjoyment. C．School teams can be of great importance for all. D．Sports usually require changing and strict rules. 35．What is the suitable title for the text? A．The Origin of Olympic Games B．The Rules of Modern Sports C．Risks of Sports for the Young D．The Joy and Lessons of Sports （本题12.5分）Running Tips for beginners Although running can seem challenging before you start, once you get going, and as you keep going, you will be rewarded. That could be improved health or new friends. 36(12.5分) So, ready to begin your life as a runner? Read our running tips for beginners. • 37 No matter what your running goal, you should find a plan that suits your personal needs. All good plans offer several weeks worth of workouts, which help you develop your running in a safe and enjoyable manner. You’ll also be surprised at how easily you can fit running into your daily life and how quickly running can become a habit. •Find safe, traffic-free routes. Before you start running, plan some local running routes that you can follow in various weather conditions at different times of the year — and which feel safe for you and are traffic-free wherever possible. 38 So you can see oncoming vehicles and react quickly. •Run at a time that suits you. The best time of day to run is the time that suits you and your lifestyle. Don’t try to force yourself to run at a time that you think might be best. Many people find it easier to run in the morning. 39 Find a time that works for you and try to stick to this as your regular running time. ●Control your pace. How can you tell if you’re running at the right pace? If you could sing while running, speed up a little. But if you find yourself struggling for breath, you’re probably going too fast and you should slow down a little bit. A good rule of thumb is to run at an easy pace. 40 A．Follow a training plan. B．Set your running goal. C．Or, you’ll get much more. D．But that doesn’t work for everyone. E．Slow down your pace when running on hills. F．If you do need to run on the road, make sure you run against the traffic. G．That is, you could hold a conversation along the way, even just a sentence at a time. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）When my friend suggested that we join the new Tai Chi (太极拳) Club, I thought he was 41 .

She put them on right away and was soon rushing along the sidewalk. Her little brother Max could only watch in envy (羡慕). “I wish I had a pair!”, he told his mum. “Well, you’re nearly big enough to wear Ruby’s old skates,” she replied. “Oh, can I?” Max asked. But when Max tried on Ruby’s old skates, they were too big. “You’ll just have to wait until you’ve grown up a bit,” said his mum. But Max couldn’t wait. He filled newspaper into the boots until they fitted and then tried to stand up in them again ... and again! Each time, he fell over. Finally, he gave up and sat on the ground, watching Ruby as she skated around him. “We should put on a skating display!” Ruby decided. “All our aunts, uncles and cousins will come. You’ll watch me, won’t you, Max?” Max sighed (叹气). He didn’t want to watch the show! He wanted to be in it! “Poor Max!” said his mum. “Look what I’ve got!” She held up a pair of thick red socks. “If you put these on, the skates will fit better.” Max pulled the socks on, and then his skates. When he stood up shakily, he was sure he would fall over again - and he did. “Maybe you’ve tried enough for today?” suggested his mum. It started to rain. When he got inside, Max pulled off his thick socks. “It’s funny. They look very small now!” he said. “Yes, they’re magic socks,” his mum replied with a smile. Max asked, “Really?!” “Yes,” she said. “They stretch (拉伸) to fit most feet…” When mum left the room, Max put the socks on and tried skating in his bedroom. He didn’t fall over! He tried again. He still didn’t fall. He could now skate — thanks to his magic socks! Hooray! How he longed to go out and show everyone ... but it was still raining. In fact, it rained non-stop for days, and Max spent that time practising his skating in his bedroom. He even tried tricks like jumps and turns, knowing his magic socks would help him. It was brilliant! 注意: 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The day of the show finally arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “But you’re not wearing those socks!” smiled his mum. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 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 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试 —— Unit 3 Sports and Fitness（较易版01）（解析版） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、听力选择题 1．（本题1.5分）What are the speakers mainly talking about?

Barty, who is just 25, says that it’s time for her to chase other dreams. Barty made the announcement in a video.     In the video, Barty discussed her thoughts about retiring with her good friend Casey Dellacqua. Dellacqua, who is also a retired tennis player, used to be Barty’s doubles partner. Barty made it clear that playing professional tennis at an extremely high level is very demanding and stressful. She said she knew how much work it took to bring the best out of herself. She added she didn’t have that in her anymore.     Even though she was only 25, Barty has been playing tennis for a long time. She started when she was four and turned professional ten years later.

She helped UConn win the 2025 NCAA championship, broke UConn’s steals record and became the third-fastest player in program history to score 1,000 career points. Yet she does not seek the spotlight. Her talent speaks for itself. Basketball is in Strong’s blood. Her mother was a WNBA player; her father played professionally in Europe. Sarah started training at age seven. Every Sunday, she and her dad spent hours in a gym, learning every aspect of the game. But one thing she lacked was confidence. A major setback came in late December of her freshman year at UConn. She missed two free throws in the final seconds, and the team lost by two points. The game bothered her. She spent her Christmas break watching it over and over. But she learned to stop spiraling over mistakes. She started talking to her coaches and family after every game, taking their advice, and then letting it go. “It’s a game at the end of the day,” she says. “I can’t go back to change it. Just focus on the next game.” That attitude has shaped who she is. Thanks to her quiet determination, next season the Huskies will be Strong’s team. She is about to become the primary face of the program. Strong, however, doesn’t care about individual success. She leads by example. She hates the thought of making an award acceptance speech. “I’m not really focused on the spotlight,” she says. “The only pressure I feel is from my coaches and showing up for my team.” She calls the shots about what you see, on and off the court. And she remains a mystery-a superstar who lets her game speak, while keeping everything else to herself. And that’s exactly how she wants it. 24．(10分)What can we know about Strong’s parents? A．Her father forced her to play basketball. B．They both played basketball professionally. C．Her mother was more famous than her father. D．They met each other while playing in Europe. 25．What does the underlined word “spiraling” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Staying calm. B．Getting upset. C．Feeling excited. D．Becoming angry. 26．What can be inferred about Strong’s personality from the last paragraph? A．Anxious and shy. B．Outgoing and caring. C．Ambitious and curious. D．Modest and strong-minded. 27．What does Strong’s story show? A．Still waters run deep. B．Practice makes perfect. C．Every cloud has a silver lining. D．Don’t judge a book by its cover. 【答案】24．B 25．B 26．D 27．A 【导语】文章主要介绍康涅狄格大学女篮前锋Sarah Strong出色的赛场成绩、篮球世家背景，以及她遭遇比赛失利后调整心态、低调内敛、以团队为先的个人品质。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据第二段“Her mother was a WNBA player; her father played professionally in Europe. (她的母亲是美国女子职业篮球联赛球员，父亲在欧洲打职业篮球。)”可知，她的父母都打过职业篮球。 25．词句猜测题。根据第三段“She missed two free throws in the final seconds, and the team lost by two points. The game bothered her. She spent her Christmas break watching it over and over. But she learned to stop spiraling over mistakes. She started talking to her coaches and family after every game, taking their advice, and then letting it go. (她在最后几秒错失两次罚球，球队两分惜败。这场比赛一直困扰着她，圣诞假期她反复回看比赛录像。但她学会不再因错误spiraling。每场赛后都会和教练、家人沟通，听取建议然后放下过往。)”可知，spiraling此处指因失误持续难过、陷入负面情绪，与B选项“Getting upset.(变得沮丧。)”含义接近。 26．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Thanks to her quiet determination, next season the Huskies will be Strong’s team. She is about to become the primary face of the program. (凭借这份不动声色的坚定意志，下个赛季这支Huskies队将成为以斯特朗为核心的队伍。她即将成为这支校队的标志性代表人物。)”、“She hates the thought of making an award acceptance speech. ‘I’m not really focused on the spotlight,’ she says. (她一想到要上台发表获奖感言就十分抵触。她说：‘我从来不在意众人追捧的光环。’)”以及“And she remains a mystery-a superstar who lets her game speak, while keeping everything else to herself. And that’s exactly how she wants it. (她始终让人看不透——一位只用赛场表现说话、对私事绝口不提的巨星，而这正是她想要的状态。)”可知，她为人谦逊且意志坚定。 27．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Yet she does not seek the spotlight. Her talent speaks for itself. (但她从不主动追逐聚光灯。她的实力不言自明。)”以及最后一段“And she remains a mystery-a superstar who lets her game speak, while keeping everything else to herself. And that’s exactly how she wants it. (她始终让人看不透——一位只用赛场表现说话、对私事绝口不提的巨星，而这正是她想要的状态。)”可知，Sarah实力出众却低调沉静，拥有强大的内心，契合A选项的谚语“Still waters run deep (静水流深)”。 （本题10分）Many of us start exercising in the hope of losing unwanted pounds. Unquestionably, aiming to be more active is a good thing. But if the main reason is to lose weight, your plan could very well come to nothing. For starters, exercise is typically futile for weight loss. Take walking for example. A 150-pound person who walks for 30 minutes will burn, on average, around 140 calories. That’s equal to one can of soda — not exactly a great return on your investment of time and effort. It’s much easier just to skip the soda. When exercise is added to a diet, the results are equally unimpressive. Researchers found that a combination (组合) of dieting and exercising produced no greater weight loss than dieting alone after six months. At 12 months, the diet-and-exercise combination showed an advantage, but it was slight — about 4 pounds on average. In studies where exercise has produced meaningful weight loss, participants burned at least 400 to 500 calories during each workout on five or more days a week. To achieve that, a 150-pound person would need to walk at least 90 minutes or run 30 minutes each day. In short, the time spent exercising needs to go well beyond what most of us are willing or able to do. And even if we manage to make that much effort, our bodies often make up for it by increasing hunger and slowing down metabolism (新陈代谢), which over time limits how many pounds we lose. When exercise fails to meet our weight-loss expectations, we often stop working out. Perhaps the biggest problem with exercising to drop pounds is that it turns physical activity into punishment — a price we have to pay for a slimmer body. How many times have you heard someone say “I’ll need to do extra exercise” after eating too much? We treat exercise as a form of self-punishment for being “bad”. In this case, we’re unlikely to keep doing it for very long. The conclusion is that we’re more likely to treat exercise positively and actually do it when we focus on our well-being rather than our weight. 28．(10分)What does the underlined word “futile” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Necessary. B．Basic. C．Fruitless. D．Painful. 29．How does the author view the results of dieting combined with exercise? A．Ineffective. B．Limited. C．Satisfactory. D．Significant. 30．What might happen when a 150-pound person runs 30 minutes daily? A．He might eat more than usual. B．He will burn 500 calories a week. C．He might have faster metabolism. D．He will lose weight very quickly. 31．What is the author’s suggestion regarding exercise? A．Lowering our weight-loss expectations. B．Exercising more after eating too much. C．Sticking to our regular exercise routine. D．Changing our attitude toward working out. 【答案】28．C 29．B 30．A 31．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍锻炼并非减肥的有效方式，其单独或搭配饮食的减肥效果均有限，还易被当作惩罚，建议为健康而非体重开展锻炼。 【详解】28．词句猜测题。根据第二段“Take walking for example. A 150-pound person who walks for 30 minutes will burn, on average, around 140 calories. That’s equal to one can of soda — not exactly a great return on your investment of time and effort.(以散步为例，一个体重150磅的人散步30分钟，平均大约消耗140卡路里。这相当于一罐苏打水——你的时间和精力投入并没有得到很好的回报)”可知，锻炼减肥收效甚微，“futile”意为“徒劳的、无用的”，与fruitless意义相近。故选C项。 29．推理判断题。根据第三段“At 12 months, the diet-and-exercise combination showed an advantage, but it was slight — about 4 pounds on average.(12个月时，饮食与锻炼结合的方式虽有优势，但效果微乎其微，平均仅减重约4磅)”可知，作者认为饮食加运动的效果优势非常有限。故选B项。 30．推理判断题。根据第二段“Take walking for example. A 150-pound person who walks for 30 minutes will burn, on average, around 140 calories.(以散步为例，一个体重150磅的人散步30分钟，平均大约消耗140卡路里)”以及第四段“And even if we manage to make that much effort, our bodies often make up for it by increasing hunger and slowing down metabolism.(即便我们付出如此多的努力，身体也常常会通过增加饥饿感、减缓新陈代谢来弥补消耗)”可知，150磅的人每天跑30分钟正属于该类高强度努力，身体会通过增加饥饿感来补偿消耗。也就是说，这个人可能会吃得比平时多。故选A项。 31．推理判断题。根据最后一段“The conclusion is that we’re more likely to treat exercise positively and actually do it when we focus on our well-being rather than our weight.(结论是，当我们关注自身健康而非体重时，才更有可能积极看待锻炼并坚持下去)”可知，作者建议我们不要把运动当成惩罚，而应关注自身的健康，这本质上是建议我们改变对待运动的态度。故选D项。 （本题10分）Sports might have started as a way to survive. Long ago, people ran, jumped, and climbed to stay alive. Hunters were known for their special skills. Wall paintings from centuries ago, showing activities like wrestling or dancing, were found in Egypt. The ancient Greeks made a big change by holding the first Olympic Games. Modern sports began in England in the early 19th century and then spread globally. These became the models for sports such as football that we play now. Organized sports, whether swimming or ice hockey (冰球), are serious forms of play. There are rules to obey, skills and positions to learn, and plans to carry out. Team sports like soccer require you to work with teammates, while individual sports such as tennis focus on your personal performance. There’s no doubt that sports are valuable. The American Academy of Pediatrics says play is important for kids’ and teens’ thinking, bodies, social lives and feelings. Sports exercise our bodies and teach us about ourselves and our world. Organized sports get us using our bodies and minds, which makes us more imaginative, curious, and creative. The skills we learn can help us in school and later at work. In a perfect world, sports would always be fun. But in reality, sports can cause physical hurt like broken bones, and also harm in mind. In team sports, misunderstandings and hurt feelings are part of the learning process. Sports are supposed to bring people together, but they can also drive people apart. But even when they’re not always a cheerful experience, they show us how to face life’s challenges. You don’t have to be on a school team. But many, like school coaches, have found ways to make play their work, which makes them feel whole. There’s no better place to play and learn about the world than on a sports field. No matter what sport you choose, the key is to play for fun. When you do, you’re already a winner. 32．(10分)What can we infer about the origin of early sports? A．It was led by ancient hunters. B．It came from artistic activities. C．It was driven by practical needs. D．It started with the ancient Olympic Games. 33．Why is play important for teenagers? A．It helps all-round development. B．It teaches them ancient sports. C．It can reduce their body injuries. D．It can merely do good to their studies. 34．Which may the author agree with? A．Physical hurt is always avoidable in sports. B．People can play mainly for fun and enjoyment. C．School teams can be of great importance for all. D．Sports usually require changing and strict rules. 35．What is the suitable title for the text? A．The Origin of Olympic Games B．The Rules of Modern Sports C．Risks of Sports for the Young D．The Joy and Lessons of Sports 【答案】32．C 33．A 34．B 35．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。这篇文章介绍了体育起源于生存需求，经发展传播至全球，兼具组织性与规则性；它能促进人的全面发展，也存在潜在风险，核心是要为乐趣而参与。 【详解】32．推理判断题。根据第一段“Sports might have started as a way to survive. Long ago, people ran, jumped, and climbed to stay alive. (体育运动最初或许是为了求生存而发展起来的。很久以前，人们通过奔跑、跳跃和攀爬来维持生存。)”可知，早期体育运动是出于实际需求而产生的。故选C。 33．细节理解题。根据第四段“The American Academy of Pediatrics says play is important for kids’ and teens’ thinking, bodies, social lives and feelings. (美国儿科学会表示，玩耍对儿童和青少年的思维能力、身体发育、社交活动以及情感状态都有着重要的影响。)”可知，运动对青少年的思维、身体、社交和情感都有重要作用，也就是能促进全面发展。故选A。 34．细节理解题。根据最后一段“No matter what sport you choose, the key is to play for fun. When you do, you’re already a winner. (无论你选择何种运动，关键在于要享受运动的过程。当你如此去做时，你就已经是赢家了。)”可知，作者认为人们参与体育活动主要是为了娱乐和享受。故选B。 35．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“There’s no better place to play and learn about the world than on a sports field. No matter what sport you choose, the key is to play for fun. When you do, you’re already a winner. (在运动场上玩耍并了解这个世界是再好不过的选择了。无论你选择哪种运动，关键在于享受运动的乐趣。当你这样做时，你就已经是赢家了。)”结合这篇文章介绍了体育起源于生存需求，经发展传播至全球，兼具组织性与规则性；它能促进人的全面发展，也存在潜在风险，核心是要为乐趣而参与。可知，D选项“体育运动的快乐与收获”最符合文章标题。故选D。 （本题12.5分）Running Tips for beginners Although running can seem challenging before you start, once you get going, and as you keep going, you will be rewarded. That could be improved health or new friends. 36(12.5分) So, ready to begin your life as a runner? Read our running tips for beginners. • 37 No matter what your running goal, you should find a plan that suits your personal needs. All good plans offer several weeks worth of workouts, which help you develop your running in a safe and enjoyable manner. You’ll also be surprised at how easily you can fit running into your daily life and how quickly running can become a habit. •Find safe, traffic-free routes. Before you start running, plan some local running routes that you can follow in various weather conditions at different times of the year — and which feel safe for you and are traffic-free wherever possible. 38 So you can see oncoming vehicles and react quickly. •Run at a time that suits you.

Many people find it easier to run in the morning. 39 Find a time that works for you and try to stick to this as your regular running time. ●Control your pace. How can you tell if you’re running at the right pace? If you could sing while running, speed up a little. But if you find yourself struggling for breath, you’re probably going too fast and you should slow down a little bit. A good rule of thumb is to run at an easy pace. 40 A．Follow a training plan. B．Set your running goal. C．Or, you’ll get much more. D．But that doesn’t work for everyone. E．Slow down your pace when running on hills.

(这样你就能看到迎面而来的车辆并迅速做出反应。)”可知，这样做的好处是能看到车辆并做出反应，本空应进一步说明如果在路上跑步应该怎么做，F选项“If you do need to run on the road, make sure you run against the traffic. (如果你确实需要在路上跑步，一定要逆着车流跑。)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选F。 39．上文“Many people find it easier to run in the morning.

If you could sing while running, speed up a little. But if you find yourself struggling for breath, you’re probably going too fast and you should slow down a little bit. A good rule of thumb is to run at an easy pace.

However, after the first class, I 42 that I was wrong. It was amazing. Tai chi led to a big 43 both in my body and mind. I still remember my first few tai chi classes. The basic skill I learned was keeping a balance (平衡). An action was called “golden rooster(公鸡)standing on one leg”. Following the instructions, I tried to 44 on one leg. It seemed that it was not a hard one, but I still 45 many times. Soon, I felt bored and 46 from practicing over and over again. I started to 47 myself. Maybe I was really 48 in this kind of exercise. Just then, my coach taught me how to relax myself. Step by step, I made 49 . Later, I was able to do more difficult actions and feel peace of mind as well. My love for tai chi became 50 . I even wanted to look into the ancient Chinese culture behind tai chi. I discovered tai chi is deeply from Chinese yin and yang.

She put them on right away and was soon rushing along the sidewalk. Her little brother Max could only watch in envy (羡慕). “I wish I had a pair!”, he told his mum. “Well, you’re nearly big enough to wear Ruby’s old skates,” she replied. “Oh, can I?” Max asked. But when Max tried on Ruby’s old skates, they were too big. “You’ll just have to wait until you’ve grown up a bit,” said his mum. But Max couldn’t wait. He filled newspaper into the boots until they fitted and then tried to stand up in them again ... and again! Each time, he fell over. Finally, he gave up and sat on the ground, watching Ruby as she skated around him. “We should put on a skating display!” Ruby decided. “All our aunts, uncles and cousins will come. You’ll watch me, won’t you, Max?” Max sighed (叹气). He didn’t want to watch the show! He wanted to be in it! “Poor Max!” said his mum. “Look what I’ve got!” She held up a pair of thick red socks. “If you put these on, the skates will fit better.” Max pulled the socks on, and then his skates. When he stood up shakily, he was sure he would fall over again - and he did. “Maybe you’ve tried enough for today?” suggested his mum. It started to rain. When he got inside, Max pulled off his thick socks. “It’s funny. They look very small now!” he said. “Yes, they’re magic socks,” his mum replied with a smile. Max asked, “Really?!” “Yes,” she said. “They stretch (拉伸) to fit most feet…” When mum left the room, Max put the socks on and tried skating in his bedroom. He didn’t fall over! He tried again. He still didn’t fall. He could now skate — thanks to his magic socks! Hooray! How he longed to go out and show everyone ... but it was still raining. In fact, it rained non-stop for days, and Max spent that time practising his skating in his bedroom. He even tried tricks like jumps and turns, knowing his magic socks would help him. It was brilliant! 注意: 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The day of the show finally arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “But you’re not wearing those socks!” smiled his mum. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】     The day of the show finally arrived. All their aunts, uncles and cousins came to attend the skating display. As the show began, Ruby skated skillfully and easily into the center of the yard on her new skates. Then she turned and danced gracefully, like a beautiful butterfly, causing people to applaud warmly. Other cousins who could skate also showed off their excellent skating skills one by one. When it was Max’s turn, everyone stared at the little boy curiously, wondering if he could skate. He took a deep breath and slid steadily into the yard on the old skates. After skating around the yard twice, he began to try tricks like jumps and turns and fulfilled them so perfectly that all the family cheered for him. “I made it! Mum.” Max shouted excitedly.      “But you’re not wearing those socks!” smiled his mum. Hearing this, Max suddenly froze for a minute and looked down at his skates, finding that he forgot to wear his magic socks due to haste and excitement. He incredibly stared at his mum and asked, “But why?” “Because what really made you successful was your constant practice and hard work, not the socks.” Mum tapped his cheek and said lovingly. Nodding heavily, Max smiled innocently, “But they are still magic socks for me. Thank you, Mom.” 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了小男孩Max羡慕姐姐Ruby拥有一双新的滑冰鞋，希望自己也能有一双。妈妈给他找来姐姐的旧冰鞋，但是太大了，即便塞上报纸，也总是摔跤。姐姐提议邀请亲戚们一起举办一次滑冰展，Max很想参加，妈妈给他拿来了一双厚厚的红袜子，告诉他这是一双有魔力的可伸缩的袜子，最终Max穿着这双袜子勤奋练习，从一开始总是摔跤到最后可以做一些花样动作，并在滑冰展上取得了成功的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“演出的日子终于到了。”可知，第一段可描写滑冰展上大家表演的情况及Max的成功表现。 ②由第二段首句内容““但是你没有穿那双袜子!”妈妈笑着说。”可知，第二段可描写妈妈帮助Max明白了自己成功的真正原因。 2. 续写线索：演出到来——亲人们应邀而来——Ruby和其他人的表现——Max的表现——取得成功——发现没有穿魔力袜——不明白为什么会成功——妈妈解惑——点明主题——感谢。 3. 词汇激活： 行为类： ①鼓掌：applaud/clap ②凝视、盯着：stare at/gaze at ③实现：fulfill/achieve ④轻拍：tap/pat 情绪类： ①不可思议地：incredibly/unbelievably ②亲切地：lovingly/kindly 【点睛】【高分句型1】When it was Max’s turn, everyone stared at the little boy curiously, wondering if he could skate. （运用了以连词when引导的时间状语从句和以连接副词if引导的宾语从句。） 【高分句型2】Because what really made you successful was your constant practice and hard work, not the socks.（运用了以连词because引导的原因状语从句和以连接代词what引导的主语从句。） 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 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
