Like many other Brazilian kids, Pele loved football and often played the game in the streets. He also went to school and did odd jobs to help bring in money for the family. However, what he loved best was to play football in the streets or practise kicking the ball with his father(also a great football player). Pele gained the attention of some coaches, first in the neighbourhood contests and later as he led his team to win the junior league tournament two years in a row. At the age of fourteen, Pele started to play for one of the first professional football teams in Brazil. As Pele became more experienced as a player, the game of football grew. By 1950, football had become the most popular game everywhere in the world, except for North America. What had begun as a British sport became the favourite sport of people all around the world. Football became a truly international sport. Pele was in the Brazilian team in the World Cup matches of 1958. Before 1958, the Brazilian team had failed in the finals three times in a row. Some blamed the failure on the referee’s unfair decisions, which, however, was not the case. Actually, the Brazilians, though gifted, had no discipline. In the 1958 finals against Sweden, Pele kicked the winning goal, and he returned home a hero. However, he never forgot his poor fellow men. Pele owned dozens of apartment houses, in which he often allowed poor families to live without paying rent. He bought his mother the home he had promised her when he signed his first professional contract. But the most exciting moment of all was in 1969, when Pele scored his thousandth goal. As football fans stormed onto the field and reporters begged for a speech, all he said was, “Remember the poor children.” Today, Pele is one of the most famous athletes in the world. He retired in 1975. However, soon after that, he decided to play for three years with the New York team. He could not resist the challenge of trying to make football popular in the United States, one of the few countries in the world where football had not become the national sport. In 1977, Pele retired for good at the age of thirty-seven. 1．What can we infer from the first two paragraphs? A．Pele was born to a well-off family in which his father was a great football star. B．The junior league tournament in Brazil is especially intended for talented football lovers. C．In 1954, Pele started his professional career, which contributed to the development of football. D．Around 1950, football was more popular than basketball in the world. 2．The reason why the Brazilian team failed to win the 1954 World Cup was that________. A．the Brazilian players were talented players B．the Brazilian players failed to cooperate well C．Pele didn’t score many goals in the game D．the referee discriminated against Brazilians 3．Which of the following aspects is NOT mentioned in the passage? A．Pele’s family background. B．Pele’s great talent for soccer. C．Pele’s enthusiasm for football. D．Pele’s charity organization. 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．D 【导语】本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述了足球运动员贝利的个人经历及所取得的成就。 1．推理判断题。根据第二段中“By 1950, football had become the most popular game everywhere in the world, except for North America. What had begun as a British sport became the favourite sport of people all around the world. Football became a truly international sport. (到1950年，足球已经成为除北美以外世界上最受欢迎的运动。这项开始于英国的运动成为全世界人民最喜爱的运动。足球成为一项真正的国际运动)”可知，大约在1950年，足球是世界上最受欢迎的运动，由此可推知，大约在1950年，足球在世界上比篮球更受欢迎。故选D。 2．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Before 1958, the Brazilian team had failed in the finals three times in a row. Some blamed the failure on the referee’s unfair decisions, which, however, was not the case. Actually, the Brazilians, though gifted, had no discipline.(1958年以前，巴西队曾连续三次在决赛中失利。一些人将失败归咎于裁判的不公正裁决，然而事实并非如此。事实上，巴西人虽然有天赋，却没有纪律)”可知，巴西队之所以没能赢得1954年世界杯，是因为巴西球员没有纪律，由此可推知，他们没能很好地合作，故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Pele was born in Brazil in 1940. Like many other Brazilian kids, Pele loved football and often played the game in the streets. He also went to school and did odd jobs to help bring in money for the family.(贝利1940年出生在巴西。像许多其他巴西孩子一样，贝利热爱足球，经常在街上踢球。他还上学，打零工，帮家里赚钱)”可知，此处提到了贝利的家庭背景以及他对足球的热爱；根据第二段中“Pele gained the attention of some coaches, first in the neighbourhood contests and later as he led his team to win the junior league tournament two years in a row. At the age of fourteen, Pele started to play for one of the first professional football teams in Brazil. (贝利引起了一些教练的注意，首先是在社区比赛中，后来他带领球队连续两年赢得青年联赛冠军。14岁时，贝利开始为巴西最早的职业足球队之一效力)”可知，贝利很有天赋；倒数第二段虽然提及他关心穷人，但是没有提到他创办慈善组织，故选D。 （B） Ronda Rousey is an American mixed martial artist, actress, and former World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) champion. She became famous as the first Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women’s bantamweight (雏量级) champion and helped bring women’s fighting into the mainstream. Rousey was born on February 1, 1987, in Riverside, California. Her childhood was challenging. She had a speech disorder and did not speak until she was six years old. When she was eight, her father took his own life after a serious injury left him unable to walk. Her mother, a former world judo (柔道) champion, encouraged Ronda to take up judo as a way to deal with her emotions. Rousey excelled quickly. At 15, she made the U.S. Olympic team. At 16, she became the youngest American to earn the number one national ranking in her division. She won a bronze medal at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing and retired from judo at 21. After the Olympics, Rousey struggled financially. She worked at a bar and even lived in her car for a time. She then turned to mixed martial arts. In 2010, she had her first amateur match and won her first fight in just 23 seconds using her famous armbar technique. She turned professional soon after and won her first four fights in less than one minute each. In 2012 Rousey became the first woman to sign with the UFC． She successfully defended her championship title multiple times, often winning in the first round. Many of her fights ended in under one minute. Her speed and power made her a superstar. She appeared on magazine covers and in movies like The Expendables 3 and Furious 7. However, her run of victories ended in November 2015 when she lost to Holly Holm. Another loss followed in 2016. Rousey then moved to professional wrestling, joining WWE. She became a champion there as well and is one of only eight female Triple Crown champions in WWE history. Rousey married UFC fighter Travis Browne, and they have two daughters. She returned to the fighting cage for a special match against Gina Carano. Rousey said this would likely be her last fight, as she wanted to focus on her family. 4．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A．The 2008 Beijing Olympics. B．Rousey’s achievements in judo. C．The youngest judo champion. D．Ways to join the Olympic team. 5．Why does the author mention The Expendables 3? A．To prove films need stars. B．To explain skills of fighting. C．To show Rousey’s wide influence. D．To introduce a popular action movie. 6．What happened to Rousey after 2015? A．She kept winning all fights. B．She gave up WWE quickly. C．She lost two fights in a row. D．She left lighting forever. 7．What is the text mainly about? A．A famous actress’s film works. B．History of the UFC and WWE. C．Development of women’s fighting. D．A female champion’s life and career. 【答案】4．B 5．C 6．C 7．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了美国综合格斗运动员、演员及前WWE冠军Ronda Rousey的生平与职业生涯，涵盖了她的童年经历、柔道成就、UFC冠军之路、失利后转战WWE以及最终回归家庭的故事。 【详解】4．主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“At 15, she made the U.S. Olympic team. At 16, she became the youngest American to earn the number one national ranking in her division. She won a bronze medal at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing and retired from judo at 21.(15岁时，她入选美国奥运代表队。16岁时，她成为美国最年轻的全国排名第一的选手。她在2008年北京奥运会上获得铜牌，并在21岁时从柔道界退役。)”可知，本段主要讲述了Rousey在柔道领域取得的成就。 5．推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Her speed and power made her a superstar. She appeared on magazine covers and in movies like The Expendables 3 and Furious 7.(她的速度和力量使她成为超级明星。她登上了杂志封面，并出演了《敢死队3》和《速度与激情7》等电影。）”可知，作者提到《敢死队3》是为了说明Rousey的影响力不仅限于体育界，还扩展到了影视和流行文化领域。 6．细节理解题。根据第六段中的“However, her run of victories ended in November 2015 when she lost to Holly Holm. Another loss followed in 2016.(然而，她的连胜在2015年11月结束，当时她输给了Holly Holm。2016年她又遭遇了另一场失利。）”可知，2015年后她连续输掉了两场比赛。 7．主旨大意题。通读全文，文章从Rousey的出生、童年、柔道生涯、UFC冠军、失利、WWE到回归家庭，完整介绍了她的人生与职业历程，D项“一位女冠军的人生与职业生涯”准确概括了全文内容。 （C） Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem. Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. However, it’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass. Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says. According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories (卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn when walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says. In her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice. 8．Why are race walkers conditioned athletes? A．They must run long distances. B．They have to follow special rules. C．They are qualified for the marathon. D．They are good at swinging their legs. 9．What advantage does race walking have over running? A．It’s more popular at the Olympics. B．It’s less challenging physically. C．It’s less likely to cause knee injuries. D．It’s more effective in body building. 10．What is Dr. Norberg’s suggestion for someone trying race walking? A．Doing regular exercises. B．Having a medical checkup. C．Hiring an experienced coach. D．Getting experts’ opinions. 11．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Race Walking: Fitness Benefits and Form Challenges B．Running VS. Race Walking: Which Burns More Calories? C．Avoiding Injuries: Why Race Walking Might be safer Than Running? D．The Unusual Feature of Race Walking 【答案】8．B 9．C 10．D 11．A 【导语】文章介绍了竞走与跑步一样具有健身益处，且因动作规则特殊，对膝盖冲击较小，受伤风险更低；但该运动对脚踝和髋部压力较大，初学者应咨询专业人士学习正确技巧。 【详解】8．细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. However, it’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass. (但是，这项运动的规则要求竞走者在大部分腿部摆动过程中保持膝盖伸直，并且任何时候都必须有一只脚与地面接触。然而，马萨诸塞州塞勒姆州立大学运动科学助理教授Jaclyn Norberg表示，正是这种奇特的姿势使得竞走成为一项极具吸引力的运动.)”可知，竞走运动员需要遵循膝盖保持伸直且单脚始终接触地面的特殊规则，正是这种特殊形式使得他们成为训练有素的运动员。 9．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的“As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. (因此，她说，跑步时的一些伤害，例如跑者膝关节损伤，在竞走运动员中并不常见。)”可知，与跑步相比，竞走不太容易导致膝盖受伤。 10．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice. (事实上，任何想尝试竞走的人最好先咨询教练或有经验的竞走选手，以学习正确的技巧，她说。这需要一些练习。)”可知，Norberg博士建议任何想尝试竞走的人都应该先咨询教练或有经验的选手，即获取专业人士的意见。 11．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. (研究表明，竞走与跑步在健身方面有许多相似之处，而且很可能有助于减少受伤。)”可知，文章首先指出了竞走与跑步一样具有健身益处，以及第三段中“Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says. (她说，跑步和竞走一样，对身体要求很高。)”以及最后一段中“But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. (但这项运动的特殊形式会对踝关节和髋部造成相当大的压力，因此有此类伤病史的人在尝试这项运动时应格外谨慎。)”可知，文章接着分析了其特殊的运动形式带来的挑战，如对脚踝和髋部的压力以及需要专业指导等。因此，A选项“Race Walking: Fitness Benefits and Form Challenges (竞走：健身益处与形式挑战)”最能全面概括文章主旨，符合题意。 （D） If you want to be healthier this year, here is some encouraging news. Small changes to your sleep, diet, and exercise habits could have the potential to extend your life by approximately one year, according to researcher Nicholas Koemel from the University of Sydney. To reach this conclusion, Koemel and his team examined data from nearly 60,000 adults aged 40 to 69. The participants reported their eating habits and wore activity trackers for a week to record their sleep and exercise. Then the researchers followed their health for eight years. The team identified the least healthy 5% of participants, who slept only about 5 hours a day, exercised just 5 minutes daily, and had poor diets. Using a statistical model, the researchers estimated that individuals who added a little more sleep, exercise, and vegetables lived a year longer than the least healthy group. Interestingly, making these small combined changes was as effective as making a much larger change in only one area. For example, sleeping 25 minutes more without changing diet or exercise produced the same effect. The findings support a second study published this week that analyzed death rate and exercise data from more than 40,000 people, aged 64 on average, across Norway, Sweden and the US. Ulf Ekelund in Norway and his colleagues fed this data into a statistical model and predicted that, if the vast majority of the population in those countries — except for the most active 20 percent of people — engaged in an extra 5 minutes of exercise per day, about 10 percent of deaths could be prevented in the following eight years, on average. Both studies have limitations, however. People may not accurately remember what they ate, and one week of activity data may not reflect their lifelong habits. Still, the message remains clear: small steps can lead to big benefits. 12．How did the researchers reach the conclusion? A．By making use of a sleeping model. B．By analyzing adults’ medical records. C．By examining data and tracking health. D．By comparing habits in different groups. 13．What can be inferred from the example in paragraph 3? A．Sleeping 25 minutes more reduces one year of life. B．Five minutes of daily exercise can replace poor diets. C．Small changes can match a big one for health benefits. D．A big single change is better than small combined ones. 14．What can be predicted from the second study? A．Extra 5 minutes of exercise per day avoid death. B．Extra sleep is more effective than extra exercise. C．People over 60 benefit more from small changes. D．The most active 20% of people need more exercise. 15．What does the passage try to tell us? A．No pain, no gain. B．Every little bit counts. C．It’s never too late to mend. D．Where there is a will, there is a way. 【答案】12．C 13．C 14．A 15．B 【导语】主要说明了两项研究表明，睡眠、运动、饮食上的微小调整能延长寿命、降低死亡风险。虽研究存在局限，但充分证明点滴健康改变益处显著，积少成多就能收获巨大健康回报。 【详解】12．细节理解题。根据第二段“To reach this conclusion, Koemel and his team examined data from nearly 60,000 adults aged 40 to 69. The participants reported their eating habits and wore activity trackers for a week to record their sleep and exercise. Then the researchers followed their health for eight years.(为了得出这一结论，科梅尔及其团队分析了近6万名40至69岁成年人的数据。参与者报告了自己的饮食习惯，并佩戴活动追踪器一周，以记录睡眠和运动情况。随后，研究人员对他们的健康状况进行了长达八年的跟踪)”可知，研究人员通过分析数据并跟踪健康状况得出这一结论。 13．推理判断题。根据第三段“Interestingly, making these small combined changes was as effective as making a much larger change in only one area.(有趣的是，进行这些小的综合调整，其效果与仅在单一领域实施一次大幅改变相当)”可知，微小的变化可能带来与重大变化相当的健康益处。 14．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Ulf Ekelund in Norway and his colleagues fed this data into a statistical model and predicted that, if the vast majority of the population in those countries — except for the most active 20 percent of people — engaged in an extra 5 minutes of exercise per day, about 10 percent of deaths could be prevented in the following eight years, on average.(挪威的乌尔夫·埃克伦德及其同事将这些数据输入统计模型后预测，如果这些国家的绝大多数人口——除了最活跃的20%人群之外——每天多锻炼5分钟，那么在接下来的八年里，平均可预防约10%的死亡)”可知，每天多锻炼5分钟可避免死亡。 15．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Still, the message remains clear: small steps can lead to big benefits.(然而，信息依然明确：小步前进也能带来巨大收益)”可知，文章想告诉我们“点滴积累皆有用”。 1、 七选五 （一） First it’s the calm look on her face. Then people notice her hair clip (发夹). Many things about Huang Yuting turn heads. 1 The shooting star is just really good at her sport. At the recent ISSF World Cup Final (国际射联射击世界杯总决赛), she led the women’s 10m air rifle (女子10米气步枪) competition from start to finish. 2 Huang put on great performances at the 2024 Olympic Games and the 2022 Asian Games, too. Her calmness in front of the target may easily fool us, but Huang is only 18 years old. She grew up in an ordinary family in Taizhou, Zhejiang. 3 She also studied hard in school. The turning point came one day in 2016. Huang’s school had some visitors. Those were coaches from a local sports school. They were looking for young talents. They asked the kids to each build a pyramid (金字塔) out of bullet shells (弹壳). 4 But Huang still made it. She was chosen to train as a shooter. Huang tried her best to balance her new “hobby” with her schoolwork. Every day after school, she practiced shooting for an hour. Then, she went home to do her homework. After only one year of training, Huang began winning shooting competitions. 5 As a young shooter and student, Huang has many more competitions and tests ahead. But with her hard work and talent, she’ll surely continue to hit the bullseye (靶心) — both on and off the shooting range. Fill in each blank in the passage with a proper sentence given below. Each sentence can be used only once. There are two more sentences than you will need. A．It’s not surprising. B．Where there’s a will there’s a way. C．At the same time, she kept her school grades excellent. D．As a child, she loved dancing and practicing martial arts (武术). E．She even set a new world record in the final with a total of 254.5 points. F．The job was made harder with many distractions (分散注意力的事物) around. G．She balanced her schoolwork and shooting practice with remarkable discipline (自制力). 【答案】1．A 2．E 3．D 4．F 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了18岁射击运动员黄雨婷的成长经历，包括她在国际赛事中的出色表现、家庭背景、被发掘的契机以及平衡学业与射击训练的故事，展现了她的天赋与努力。 【详解】1．上文“Many things about Huang Yuting turn heads.(黄雨婷的很多方面都引人注目)”提到黄雨婷诸多方面惹人关注，下文“The shooting star is just really good at her sport.(这位射击新星确实非常擅长她的运动项目)”解释了她引人关注的原因——擅长射击。A选项“It’s not surprising.(这并不奇怪)”承接上文，对“她引人注目”这一情况进行过渡，同时引出下文对其擅长射击的说明，上下文逻辑连贯。故选A项。 2．上文“At the recent ISSF World Cup Final, she led the women’s 10m air rifle competition from start to finish.(在最近的国际射联射击世界杯总决赛上，她在女子10米气步枪比赛中从头到尾都处于领先地位)”描述了黄雨婷在世界杯总决赛中的领先表现，E选项“She even set a new world record in the final with a total of 254.5 points.(她甚至在决赛中以254.5环的总成绩创造了新的世界纪录)”进一步补充她在该赛事中的卓越成就，“in the final”与上文“ISSF World Cup Final”相呼应，语意衔接紧密。故选E项。 3．上文“She grew up in an ordinary family in Taizhou, Zhejiang.(她在浙江台州的一个普通家庭长大)”介绍了黄雨婷的成长背景，下文“She also studied hard in school.(她在学校也学习很努力)”提到她的学习情况，“also”提示设空句应介绍她除学习外的其他经历。D选项“As a child, she loved dancing and practicing martial arts.(小时候，她喜欢跳舞和练武术)”符合语境，讲述她童年时期的兴趣爱好，与下文“学习努力”构成并列关系，且“As a child”也与“grew up”在时间维度上相契合。故选D项。 4．上文“They asked the kids to each build a pyramid out of bullet shells.(他们让孩子们每人用弹壳搭一个金字塔)”描述了教练给孩子们的任务，下文“But Huang still made it.(但黄雨婷还是成功完成了)”中“but”表转折，提示设空句应说明任务的难度。F选项“The job was made harder with many distractions around.(周围有很多分散注意力的东西，使得这项任务更难完成)”解释了任务困难的原因，与下文“仍成功完成”形成转折关系，逻辑合理。故选F项。 5．上文“Huang tried her best to balance her new “hobby” with her schoolwork. Every day after school, she practiced shooting for an hour. Then, she went home to do her homework. After only one year of training, Huang began winning shooting competitions.(黄雨婷努力平衡她的新“爱好”和学业。每天放学后，她练习一小时射击，然后回家做作业。仅仅训练了一年，黄雨婷就开始在射击比赛中获奖)”讲述了她平衡学业与射击并在射击上取得成绩，C选项“At the same time, she kept her school grades excellent.(与此同时，她的学业成绩依然优异)”补充说明她在射击进步的同时，学业也未受影响，“At the same time”呼应上文“balance”，与前文内容形成完整的“平衡学业与射击”的表述。故选C项。 （二） How to Make the Most of a Gap Year A gap year — a year taken off between high school and college — can be a life-changing experience. But to make it truly worthwhile, you need to plan carefully. 6 Here are some tips to help you succeed. Set clear goals. Before you start, think about what you want to achieve. Do you want to learn a new language? Gain work experience? Volunteer abroad? 7 Your goals will guide your decisions and keep you focused. Choose quality over quantity. It’s tempting to pack your year with many activities, but it’s better to choose a few meaningful ones. 8 A well-chosen internship or volunteering position can teach you more than a dozen casual jobs. Stay open to the unexpected. While having a plan is important, the best experiences often come from unplanned opportunities. 9 The most memorable stories are often those you didn’t expect. Reflect regularly. A gap year is not just about doing — it’s about learning. Take time to journal, talk to mentors, and think about what you’re experiencing. 10 This reflection will help you grow and present a compelling story to colleges or employers. A．Without clear goals, you may drift aimlessly. B．Keep a balance between work and rest. C．Say yes to opportunities that challenge you. D．Quality matters more than quantity in gap year activities. E．The more activities you do, the better your gap year will be. F．Otherwise, the year may pass without leaving a lasting impact. G．Don’t be afraid to change your plans if something better arises. 【答案】6．F 7．A 8．D 9．G 10．C 【导语】本文围绕如何充分利用间隔年展开，先点明间隔年的价值与周密规划的必要性，接着给出了四条实用建议。 【详解】6．上文“But to make it truly worthwhile, you need to plan carefully.

Like many other Brazilian kids, Pele loved football and often played the game in the streets. He also went to school and did odd jobs to help bring in money for the family. However, what he loved best was to play football in the streets or practise kicking the ball with his father(also a great football player). Pele gained the attention of some coaches, first in the neighbourhood contests and later as he led his team to win the junior league tournament two years in a row. At the age of fourteen, Pele started to play for one of the first professional football teams in Brazil. As Pele became more experienced as a player, the game of football grew. By 1950, football had become the most popular game everywhere in the world, except for North America. What had begun as a British sport became the favourite sport of people all around the world. Football became a truly international sport. Pele was in the Brazilian team in the World Cup matches of 1958. Before 1958, the Brazilian team had failed in the finals three times in a row. Some blamed the failure on the referee’s unfair decisions, which, however, was not the case. Actually, the Brazilians, though gifted, had no discipline. In the 1958 finals against Sweden, Pele kicked the winning goal, and he returned home a hero. However, he never forgot his poor fellow men. Pele owned dozens of apartment houses, in which he often allowed poor families to live without paying rent. He bought his mother the home he had promised her when he signed his first professional contract. But the most exciting moment of all was in 1969, when Pele scored his thousandth goal. As football fans stormed onto the field and reporters begged for a speech, all he said was, “Remember the poor children.” Today, Pele is one of the most famous athletes in the world. He retired in 1975. However, soon after that, he decided to play for three years with the New York team. He could not resist the challenge of trying to make football popular in the United States, one of the few countries in the world where football had not become the national sport. In 1977, Pele retired for good at the age of thirty-seven. 1．What can we infer from the first two paragraphs? A．Pele was born to a well-off family in which his father was a great football star.

She became famous as the first Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women’s bantamweight (雏量级) champion and helped bring women’s fighting into the mainstream. Rousey was born on February 1, 1987, in Riverside, California. Her childhood was challenging. She had a speech disorder and did not speak until she was six years old. When she was eight, her father took his own life after a serious injury left him unable to walk. Her mother, a former world judo (柔道) champion, encouraged Ronda to take up judo as a way to deal with her emotions. Rousey excelled quickly. At 15, she made the U.S. Olympic team. At 16, she became the youngest American to earn the number one national ranking in her division. She won a bronze medal at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing and retired from judo at 21. After the Olympics, Rousey struggled financially. She worked at a bar and even lived in her car for a time. She then turned to mixed martial arts. In 2010, she had her first amateur match and won her first fight in just 23 seconds using her famous armbar technique. She turned professional soon after and won her first four fights in less than one minute each. In 2012 Rousey became the first woman to sign with the UFC． She successfully defended her championship title multiple times, often winning in the first round. Many of her fights ended in under one minute. Her speed and power made her a superstar. She appeared on magazine covers and in movies like The Expendables 3 and Furious 7. However, her run of victories ended in November 2015 when she lost to Holly Holm. Another loss followed in 2016. Rousey then moved to professional wrestling, joining WWE. She became a champion there as well and is one of only eight female Triple Crown champions in WWE history. Rousey married UFC fighter Travis Browne, and they have two daughters.

It does, however, have its own problem. Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. However, it’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass. Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says. According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories (卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn when walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says. In her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice. 8．Why are race walkers conditioned athletes? A．They must run long distances. B．They have to follow special rules. C．They are qualified for the marathon. D．They are good at swinging their legs. 9．What advantage does race walking have over running? A．It’s more popular at the Olympics. B．It’s less challenging physically. C．It’s less likely to cause knee injuries. D．It’s more effective in body building. 10．What is Dr. Norberg’s suggestion for someone trying race walking? A．Doing regular exercises. B．Having a medical checkup. C．Hiring an experienced coach. D．Getting experts’ opinions. 11．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Race Walking: Fitness Benefits and Form Challenges B．Running VS. Race Walking: Which Burns More Calories? C．Avoiding Injuries: Why Race Walking Might be safer Than Running? D．The Unusual Feature of Race Walking （D） If you want to be healthier this year, here is some encouraging news. Small changes to your sleep, diet, and exercise habits could have the potential to extend your life by approximately one year, according to researcher Nicholas Koemel from the University of Sydney. To reach this conclusion, Koemel and his team examined data from nearly 60,000 adults aged 40 to 69. The participants reported their eating habits and wore activity trackers for a week to record their sleep and exercise. Then the researchers followed their health for eight years. The team identified the least healthy 5% of participants, who slept only about 5 hours a day, exercised just 5 minutes daily, and had poor diets. Using a statistical model, the researchers estimated that individuals who added a little more sleep, exercise, and vegetables lived a year longer than the least healthy group. Interestingly, making these small combined changes was as effective as making a much larger change in only one area. For example, sleeping 25 minutes more without changing diet or exercise produced the same effect. The findings support a second study published this week that analyzed death rate and exercise data from more than 40,000 people, aged 64 on average, across Norway, Sweden and the US. Ulf Ekelund in Norway and his colleagues fed this data into a statistical model and predicted that, if the vast majority of the population in those countries — except for the most active 20 percent of people — engaged in an extra 5 minutes of exercise per day, about 10 percent of deaths could be prevented in the following eight years, on average. Both studies have limitations, however. People may not accurately remember what they ate, and one week of activity data may not reflect their lifelong habits. Still, the message remains clear: small steps can lead to big benefits. 12．How did the researchers reach the conclusion? A．By making use of a sleeping model. B．By analyzing adults’ medical records. C．By examining data and tracking health. D．By comparing habits in different groups. 13．What can be inferred from the example in paragraph 3? A．Sleeping 25 minutes more reduces one year of life. B．Five minutes of daily exercise can replace poor diets. C．Small changes can match a big one for health benefits. D．A big single change is better than small combined ones. 14．What can be predicted from the second study? A．Extra 5 minutes of exercise per day avoid death. B．Extra sleep is more effective than extra exercise. C．People over 60 benefit more from small changes. D．The most active 20% of people need more exercise. 15．What does the passage try to tell us? A．No pain, no gain. B．Every little bit counts. C．It’s never too late to mend. D．Where there is a will, there is a way. 1、 七选五 （一） First it’s the calm look on her face. Then people notice her hair clip (发夹). Many things about Huang Yuting turn heads. 1 The shooting star is just really good at her sport. At the recent ISSF World Cup Final (国际射联射击世界杯总决赛), she led the women’s 10m air rifle (女子10米气步枪) competition from start to finish. 2 Huang put on great performances at the 2024 Olympic Games and the 2022 Asian Games, too. Her calmness in front of the target may easily fool us, but Huang is only 18 years old. She grew up in an ordinary family in Taizhou, Zhejiang. 3 She also studied hard in school. The turning point came one day in 2016. Huang’s school had some visitors. Those were coaches from a local sports school. They were looking for young talents. They asked the kids to each build a pyramid (金字塔) out of bullet shells (弹壳). 4 But Huang still made it. She was chosen to train as a shooter. Huang tried her best to balance her new “hobby” with her schoolwork. Every day after school, she practiced shooting for an hour. Then, she went home to do her homework. After only one year of training, Huang began winning shooting competitions. 5 As a young shooter and student, Huang has many more competitions and tests ahead. But with her hard work and talent, she’ll surely continue to hit the bullseye (靶心) — both on and off the shooting range. Fill in each blank in the passage with a proper sentence given below. Each sentence can be used only once. There are two more sentences than you will need. A．It’s not surprising. B．Where there’s a will there’s a way. C．At the same time, she kept her school grades excellent. D．As a child, she loved dancing and practicing martial arts (武术). E．She even set a new world record in the final with a total of 254.5 points. F．The job was made harder with many distractions (分散注意力的事物) around. G．She balanced her schoolwork and shooting practice with remarkable discipline (自制力). （二） How to Make the Most of a Gap Year A gap year — a year taken off between high school and college — can be a life-changing experience. But to make it truly worthwhile, you need to plan carefully. 6 Here are some tips to help you succeed. Set clear goals. Before you start, think about what you want to achieve. Do you want to learn a new language? Gain work experience? Volunteer abroad? 7 Your goals will guide your decisions and keep you focused. Choose quality over quantity. It’s tempting to pack your year with many activities, but it’s better to choose a few meaningful ones. 8 A well-chosen internship or volunteering position can teach you more than a dozen casual jobs. Stay open to the unexpected. While having a plan is important, the best experiences often come from unplanned opportunities. 9 The most memorable stories are often those you didn’t expect. Reflect regularly. A gap year is not just about doing — it’s about learning. Take time to journal, talk to mentors, and think about what you’re experiencing. 10 This reflection will help you grow and present a compelling story to colleges or employers. A．Without clear goals, you may drift aimlessly. B．Keep a balance between work and rest. C．Say yes to opportunities that challenge you. D．Quality matters more than quantity in gap year activities. E．The more activities you do, the better your gap year will be. F．Otherwise, the year may pass without leaving a lasting impact. G．Don’t be afraid to change your plans if something better arises. 二、完形填空 （一） To become the Olympic champion in the individual (个人) all-around event, Gabby Douglas had to leave everything she 1 best.

After welcoming my second baby, I 16 severe anxiety. My mind was burdened with overwhelming thoughts, 17 me in constant mental chaos. My doctor advised me to try something simple: “ 18 thinking too much. Just start moving.” I slipped on a pair of sneakers, setting a 19 goal: run to the mailbox at the end of the street. I 20 made it, with burning lungs and trembling legs. Still, I persisted day after day. Gradually, my tiny 21 extended to two mailboxes, then a full block lap. Tired as I was, I kept 22 . It was during those tiring runs that I discovered something vital. Running, especially when you don’t feel like it, is an act of 23 over your own soul. You are both the president and the citizen of your body. The part of you that wants to quit, to go home, to 24 on the sofa, is the tired citizen. The part of you that says, “Just one more 25 ,” “Just to that tree,” is the president — the one who must decide for the good of the whole, 26 the weight of the effort even when it’s too hard. Anxiety once made me a passive 27 in life, but running 28 me to take charge. It reshaped my outlook: I could tackle hardships and stand 29 . I never ran a marathon or achieved a fast pace, but I attained the 30 to move forward against all inner resistance. 16．A．gave up B．suffered from C．dealt with D．took off 17．A．trapping B．tricking C．instructing D．involving 18．A．Finish B．Stop C．Admit D．Hate 19．A．long-term B．mature C．time-saving D．modest 20．A．quickly B．barely C．proudly D．secretly 21．A．schedule B．duration C．fantasy D．stretch 22．A．predicting B．appearing C．progressing D．existing 23．A．kindness B．humor C．leadership D．performance 24．A．collapse B．recover C．survive D．complain 25．A．jump B．gift C．plan D．step 26．A．reducing B．raising C．carrying D．ignoring 27．A．bystander B．newcomer C．learner D．inspector 28．A．invited B．empowered C．recommended D．pressured 29．A．amazed B．responsible C．pleased D．firm 30．A．intention B．effort C．courage D．freedom 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
