A study of nearly 90,000 participants in the UK suggests that putting all your weekly exercise on weekends still has significant health benefits compared with being inactive. In this study, participants who cram all their recommended weekly physical activity into one or two days are referred to as “weekend warriors”. The researchers collected data from 89,573 volunteers by requiring them to wear a wrist device (手腕设备) to track their weekly physical activity. These participants were then divided into three groups based on their exercise patterns (模式): regular exercisers, who spread their exercise throughout the week; weekend warriors, who did most of their exercise in one day or two; and inactive participants. After grouping the participants, the researchers compared their health records to examine the related health benefits. The study found that, compared with those who were inactive, weekend warriors and regular exercisers experienced similar health benefits, with both groups having a lower risk of developing more than 200 diseases. Specifically, the strongest effects were for cardiometabolic diseases. Both groups had a 20%lower risk of high blood pressure and a 40%lower risk of diabetes. Dr. Shaan Khurshid, a cardiologist at Massachusetts general hospital in Boston, who led the study, said, “It shows that, for health benefits, it’s really the amount of physical activity rather than its frequency that matters. The key is, however you are going to get that amount, do it in the way that works for you.” Khurshid also mentioned the need for more research to explore whether the “weekend warrior” workout pattern could help people reach their activity goals more easily. “It might be more convenient for some people and help them follow public health advice better,” he said. 8. What does the underlined word “cram” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Pack. B. Break. C. Divide. D. Turn. 9. How did the researchers test the health benefits in the three groups? A. By checking their physical health. B. By comparing their health records. C. By reviewing their exercise records. D. By examining their workout patterns. 10. According to Dr. Khurshid, what is more important for health benefits? A. How often you exercise each week. B. How long you exercise each time. C. How much exercise you do each week D. How much effort you put into exercise. 11. What can we infer about the “weekend warrior” workout pattern? A. It follows public health advice. B. It might suit people with busy schedules. C. It could help people reach their workout goals. D. It will soon be promoted as the best exercise plan. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究发现与不运动相比，把每周的锻炼都放在周末仍然对健康有显著的好处。解释了研究开展的经过以及研究带来的启示。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“putting all your weekly exercise on weekends still has significant health benefits compared with being inactive (与不运动相比，把每周的锻炼都放在周末仍然对健康有显著的好处)”以及后文“all their recommended weekly physical activity into one or two days are referred to as “weekend warriors” (把每周推荐的体育活动都……一到两天的参与者被称为“周末勇士”)”可知，把一周推荐的体育活动都塞进周末的一到两天的人被称为“周末勇士”。故划线词意思是“塞进”。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“After grouping the participants, the researchers compared their health records to examine the related health benefits. (在对参与者进行分组后，研究人员比较了他们的健康记录，以检查相关的健康益处。)”可知，研究人员通过比较他们的健康记录测试这三组人的健康益处。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“It shows that, for health benefits, it’s really the amount of physical activity rather than its frequency that matters. (研究表明，对健康有益的是体育活动的量，而不是频率。)”可知，根据库尔希德博士的说法，每周做多少运动对健康更重要。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“If you lack time to exercise during the working week, don’t worry. A study of nearly 90,000 participants in the UK suggests that putting all your weekly exercise on weekends still has significant health benefits compared with being inactive. In this study, participants who cram all their recommended weekly physical activity into one or two days are referred to as “weekend warriors”. (如果你在工作日没有时间锻炼，不要担心。英国一项对近9万名参与者进行的研究表明，与不运动相比，把每周的锻炼都放在周末仍然对健康有显著的好处。在这项研究中，把每周推荐的体育活动都塞进一到两天的参与者被称为“周末勇士”。)”可知，工作日没有时间锻炼可以放到周末，故“周末勇士”的锻炼模式可能适合日程繁忙的人。故选B。 D Breaking ground on what will be the first 3D-printed community in the world, a large 3D printer built two houses in a poor area of Mexico. The houses aren’t just models. Developers hoped to build 50 new 3D-printed houses, replacing the structures that residents built by themselves out of wood, metal, and whatever materials they could afford. These residents live in a seismic zone (地震带) that tends to be affected by flooding. Building something that can stand an earthquake and keep people dry during heavy rain was a key consideration when it came to the design of the houses. New Story, the non-profit organization building the houses, has built more than 2,300 homes in South America and Mexico since it was founded in 2014. This is the first homebuilding project it has done with 3D printing. The organization paired up with ICON, a construction technology company that developed the 3D-printing robotics being used on the project. The homes were co-designed with the families who will live in them. According to New Story, 3D printing is much faster than regular construction. The printer prints out a concrete mix that hardens when it dries, building the walls one layer at a time. It takes about 24 hours to build two houses at the same time. Since 3D printing is also cheaper than traditional construction, there is great potential for how it will change the world. The technology holds promise for affordable housing. New Story is excited about what the technology could mean for people who don’t have safe shelter. Brett Hagler, the CEO and co-founder of the organization, said safe shelter is “one of the largest crises affecting humanity today”. The technology is there, and the application to build homes for those in need brings a lot of hope for the future. 12. What did the design of the 3D-printed houses mainly consider? A. The structures of the old houses. B. The materials available in the area. C. The financial ability of the organization. D. The environmental conditions of the area. 13. What is the third paragraph mainly about? A. The design process. B. The introduction of ICON. C. The teams behind the project. D. The differences between New Story and ICON. 14. What makes the new technology meaningful? A. It can end human crises. B. It can provide shelter free of charge. C. It can replace traditional construction. D. It can offer safe housing to the homeless. 15. What is the best title of the text? A. 3D Printing Becomes a Reality. B. Technologies Change the Future. C. 3D Printing Helps with Housing Problems. D. Technologies Bring Hope to Mexican Cities. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了3D 打印技术在解决住房问题方面的实际应用。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Building something that can stand an earthquake and keep people dry during heavy rain was a key consideration when it came to the design of the houses.(在设计房屋时，关键考虑因素是建造一些经得起地震和在大雨中保持干燥的东西。)”可知，该地区的环境条件是设计3D打印房屋时主要考虑的问题。故选D。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“New Story, the non-profit organization building the houses, has built more than 2,300 homes in South America and Mexico since it was founded in 2014. This is the first homebuilding project it has done with 3D printing. The organization paired up with ICON, a construction technology company that developed the 3D-printing robotics being used on the project. The homes were co-designed with the families who will live in them.(New Story是一家建造房屋的非营利组织，自2014年成立以来，它已经在南美和墨西哥建造了2300多套房屋。这是第一个用3D打印完成的住宅建筑项目。该组织与ICON合作，ICON是一家建筑技术公司，该公司开发了项目中使用的3D打印机器人。这些房屋是与将居住在其中的家庭共同设计的。)”可知，第三段提到项目的主要负责方 New Story、项目的技术支持者ICON以及参与设计的当地居民。由此可知，第三段主要介绍了这个工程背后的团队。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“The technology holds promise for affordable housing. New Story is excited about what the technology could mean for people who don’t have safe shelter.(这项技术为经济适用房带来了希望。New Story对这项技术对那些没有安全住所的人来说意味着什么感到兴奋。)”可知，它可以为无家可归者提供安全的住房，这使得这项新技术变得有意义。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Breaking ground on what will be the first 3D-printed community in the world, a large 3D printer built two houses in a poor area of Mexico. (世界上第一个3D打印社区破土动工，一台大型3D打印机在墨西哥的一个贫困地区建造了两座房子。)”和文章最后一段“The technology holds promise for affordable housing.

But why? The answer lies in the physical, mental and even social benefits boxing can bring. Its help for our body is clear. Whether it’s practicing with a hitting bag or facing another boxer, boxing can be a hard form of exercise and give a full-body workout. ____17____ And it can also increase anaerobic (无氧的) fitness — allowing someone to work out harder, for longer. These can, in turn, positively affect other aspects of physical well-being, like heart health and weight management. ____18____ Boxing can also positively affect someone’s mental well-being. Dr. Jessica Pinchbeck, Senior Lecturer in Sport and Fitness at the Open University, says that boxing can reduce anxiety and sadness. Exercising regularly is already widely known to be good for mental health, but boxing can also bring a sense of focus. There is a third benefit to putting on boxing gloves (手套). Practicing boxing hits can be done alone, of course. ____19____ It also means working with others to train and stay safe. Dr. Gavin Williams, Senior Lecturer in Education at the Open University, says that this teamwork can create a sense of belonging. _____20_____ In short, boxing is more than just a sport. It’s good for your body, calms your mind, and helps you connect with others. No wonder it has been popular for so long and loved by so many people. A. It can improve our body strength. B. But boxing is not just a one-person activity. C. So the teamwork can make our society peaceful. D. More recently, boxing has become popular in the UK. E. Thus, boxing helps build deep connections with peers. F. The high demands of the sport aren’t just good for the body. G. It develops self-protecting skills and build confidence to protect oneself. 【答案】16. D 17. A 18. F 19. B 20.

Why do you ask such a thing?” the man said angrily. “I just want to know. Please tell me. How much do you make an hour?” pleaded the little boy. “If you must know, I make $ 20 an hour.” “Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I please borrow $ 10?” The father was angry, “If the only reason you asked that is that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard every day for such childish behavior.” The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy’s questions. “How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?” he thought to himself. After about an hour or so, the man calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $ 10 and he really didn’t ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the door. “Are you asleep, son?” he asked. “No, daddy, I’m awake,” replied the boy. “I’ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier,” said the man. “It has been a long day and I took out my anger on you. Here’s the $ 10 you asked for.” The little boy sat straight up, smiling. “Oh. Thank you, daddy!” he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled (皱巴巴的) bills. 注意： 1．所续写的短文词数应为150左右； 2．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已经为你写好。 Paragraph 1: “Daddy, I have $ 20 now. Can I buy an hour from you? I want to have dinner with you.” the boy raised his head, and pleaded. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next day the man came back home early as he had promised. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “Daddy, I have $ 20 now. Can I buy an hour from you? I want to have dinner with you.” the boy raised his head, and pleaded. Greatly shocked, the father was rooted to the spot instantly. It suddenly dawned on him what his son really meant. Ashamed and regretful, he realized he had been buried in endless work and seldom spent time with his son. Tears blurred his vision. He gently hugged the little boy, murmuring sincere apologies for his impatience and rudeness. Deeply moved, he promised to spare one whole hour to stay with him every day. The next day the man came back home early as he had promised. Without dealing with any extra work, he accompanied his son to play games and then enjoyed a warm family dinner together. Their house was filled with laughter and joy. From that day on, the man began to balance work and family. He finally understood that though hard work was important, nothing was more valuable than children’s longing for company. True happiness lies in family time rather than endless money. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了疲惫的父亲下班回家，六岁儿子询问其时薪并借钱，被烦躁的父亲严厉斥责。冷静后父亲主动给钱，才知晓孩子早已攒钱，只想买下一小时的陪伴、共进晚餐。父亲满心愧疚与感动，承诺多陪伴孩子。此后他平衡工作与生活，深刻明白，比起赚钱，孩子的陪伴与亲情更加珍贵。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““爸爸，我现在有20美元了。我能向您租一个小时的时间吗？我想和您一起吃晚餐。”男孩抬起头，恳求道。”可知，第一段可描写父亲听到后满心愧疚与感动，承诺多陪伴孩子。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，这个男人如他所承诺的那样早早回到了家。”可知，第二段可描写此后父亲平衡工作与生活，深刻明白，比起赚钱，孩子的陪伴与亲情更加珍贵。 2.续写线索：想买下一小时的陪伴——父亲满心愧疚与感动——承诺多陪伴孩子——他平衡工作与生活——孩子的陪伴与亲情更加珍贵 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/ be aware of ②拥抱：hugged/ embraced ③在于：lie in/ consist in 情绪类 ①后悔的：regretful / remorseful ②真诚的：sincere / genuine 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B In the heart of Nairobi, a man known as the “Nairobi Birdman” is doing a lot to save local birds. Rodgers Oloo Magutha, often seen with an injured kite on his head, has spent his life protecting a variety of birds in the busy city environment. Rodgers’s journey began in a simple home near Kenya’s Lake Nakuru National Park, a safe place full of birds. Despite his challenging childhood and without a stable (稳定的) home, he found calm in the beauty of nature. His early experiences going into the park to observe birds made him love wildlife. Throughout his life, Rodgers has always felt a strong connection to birds, often caring for injured or sick ones, and hoped to set up a special shelter to rescue even more birds. Today, with a stable house, Rodgers has turned his place into a home for the birds he cares for, winning him a beloved name on social media as the “Nairobi Birdman”. His Instagram account shows his adventures, filled with wonderful moments like dancing with a marabou stork (秃鹳), while also educating his young followers about fascinating topics, like the reasons behind flamingos’ (火烈鸟) bright pink feathers. Rodgers hopes to create a formal bird rescue center where he can legally and safely care for birds. Until that dream becomes a reality, he continues to depend on donations to support his efforts, nursing and letting birds fly back into the wild whenever they are ready. Rodgers Oloo Magutha’s story inspires us all to appreciate the nature and protect the wildlife living in it. Sharing his love for birds is a wonderful way to spread awareness and encourage others to support protection efforts. 4. What can we know about Rodgers’s childhood from the text? A. He lived a comfortable life. B. He found peace through nature. C. He received good wildlife education. D. He dreamed of building a stable house. 5. Why is Rodgers called the “Nairobi Birdman” on social media? A. He likes sharing photos of birds. B. He sets up many shelters for birds. C. He lives with rescued birds. D. He teaches bird-raising skills. 6. What words can best describe Rodgers? A. Caring and determined. B. Honest and creative. C. Confident and independent. D. Humorous and knowledgeable. 7.

Donations are necessary for wildlife rescue. D. Everyone can play a role in nature protection. C If you lack time to exercise during the working week, don’t worry. A study of nearly 90,000 participants in the UK suggests that putting all your weekly exercise on weekends still has significant health benefits compared with being inactive. In this study, participants who cram all their recommended weekly physical activity into one or two days are referred to as “weekend warriors”. The researchers collected data from 89,573 volunteers by requiring them to wear a wrist device (手腕设备) to track their weekly physical activity. These participants were then divided into three groups based on their exercise patterns (模式): regular exercisers, who spread their exercise throughout the week; weekend warriors, who did most of their exercise in one day or two; and inactive participants. After grouping the participants, the researchers compared their health records to examine the related health benefits. The study found that, compared with those who were inactive, weekend warriors and regular exercisers experienced similar health benefits, with both groups having a lower risk of developing more than 200 diseases. Specifically, the strongest effects were for cardiometabolic diseases. Both groups had a 20%lower risk of high blood pressure and a 40%lower risk of diabetes. Dr. Shaan Khurshid, a cardiologist at Massachusetts general hospital in Boston, who led the study, said, “It shows that, for health benefits, it’s really the amount of physical activity rather than its frequency that matters. The key is, however you are going to get that amount, do it in the way that works for you.” Khurshid also mentioned the need for more research to explore whether the “weekend warrior” workout pattern could help people reach their activity goals more easily. “It might be more convenient for some people and help them follow public health advice better,” he said. 8. What does the underlined word “cram” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Pack. B. Break. C. Divide. D. Turn. 9. How did the researchers test the health benefits in the three groups? A. By checking their physical health. B. By comparing their health records. C. By reviewing their exercise records. D. By examining their workout patterns. 10. According to Dr. Khurshid, what is more important for health benefits? A. How often you exercise each week. B. How long you exercise each time. C. How much exercise you do each week D. How much effort you put into exercise. 11. What can we infer about the “weekend warrior” workout pattern? A. It follows public health advice. B. It might suit people with busy schedules. C. It could help people reach their workout goals. D. It will soon be promoted as the best exercise plan. D Breaking ground on what will be the first 3D-printed community in the world, a large 3D printer built two houses in a poor area of Mexico. The houses aren’t just models. Developers hoped to build 50 new 3D-printed houses, replacing the structures that residents built by themselves out of wood, metal, and whatever materials they could afford. These residents live in a seismic zone (地震带) that tends to be affected by flooding. Building something that can stand an earthquake and keep people dry during heavy rain was a key consideration when it came to the design of the houses. New Story, the non-profit organization building the houses, has built more than 2,300 homes in South America and Mexico since it was founded in 2014. This is the first homebuilding project it has done with 3D printing. The organization paired up with ICON, a construction technology company that developed the 3D-printing robotics being used on the project. The homes were co-designed with the families who will live in them. According to New Story, 3D printing is much faster than regular construction. The printer prints out a concrete mix that hardens when it dries, building the walls one layer at a time. It takes about 24 hours to build two houses at the same time. Since 3D printing is also cheaper than traditional construction, there is great potential for how it will change the world. The technology holds promise for affordable housing. New Story is excited about what the technology could mean for people who don’t have safe shelter. Brett Hagler, the CEO and co-founder of the organization, said safe shelter is “one of the largest crises affecting humanity today”. The technology is there, and the application to build homes for those in need brings a lot of hope for the future. 12. What did the design of the 3D-printed houses mainly consider? A. The structures of the old houses. B. The materials available in the area. C. The financial ability of the organization. D. The environmental conditions of the area. 13. What is the third paragraph mainly about? A. The design process. B. The introduction of ICON. C. The teams behind the project. D. The differences between New Story and ICON. 14. What makes the new technology meaningful? A. It can end human crises. B. It can provide shelter free of charge. C. It can replace traditional construction. D. It can offer safe housing to the homeless. 15. What is the best title of the text? A. 3D Printing Becomes a Reality. B. Technologies Change the Future. C. 3D Printing Helps with Housing Problems. D. Technologies Bring Hope to Mexican Cities. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Boxing (拳击) has been practiced for centuries — it was even one of the sports in the original Olympic Games in ancient Greece. ____16____ Hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life participate in the sport every week. But why? The answer lies in the physical, mental and even social benefits boxing can bring. Its help for our body is clear. Whether it’s practicing with a hitting bag or facing another boxer, boxing can be a hard form of exercise and give a full-body workout. ____17____ And it can also increase anaerobic (无氧的) fitness — allowing someone to work out harder, for longer. These can, in turn, positively affect other aspects of physical well-being, like heart health and weight management. ____18____ Boxing can also positively affect someone’s mental well-being. Dr. Jessica Pinchbeck, Senior Lecturer in Sport and Fitness at the Open University, says that boxing can reduce anxiety and sadness. Exercising regularly is already widely known to be good for mental health, but boxing can also bring a sense of focus. There is a third benefit to putting on boxing gloves (手套). Practicing boxing hits can be done alone, of course. ____19____ It also means working with others to train and stay safe.

Why do you ask such a thing?” the man said angrily. “I just want to know. Please tell me. How much do you make an hour?” pleaded the little boy. “If you must know, I make $ 20 an hour.” “Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I please borrow $ 10?” The father was angry, “If the only reason you asked that is that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard every day for such childish behavior.” The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy’s questions. “How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?” he thought to himself. After about an hour or so, the man calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $ 10 and he really didn’t ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the door. “Are you asleep, son?” he asked. “No, daddy, I’m awake,” replied the boy. “I’ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier,” said the man. “It has been a long day and I took out my anger on you. Here’s the $ 10 you asked for.” The little boy sat straight up, smiling. “Oh. Thank you, daddy!” he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled (皱巴巴的) bills. 注意： 1．所续写的短文词数应为150左右； 2．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已经为你写好。 Paragraph 1: “Daddy, I have $ 20 now. Can I buy an hour from you?
