(2026·福建龙岩高一上月考)
The winter break is just about to end.Soon we will be back at school.It's with both happiness and sadness.I look very much forward to seeing my friends and starting practice again, but it also means I'm officially(正式地) half way through the exchange year.With school starting there are new things to try out and experience.For example, I'm starting a new sport, Track.It's similar to Cross Country, which I did from August till November.
Being here for half a year now, I can easily tell the differences between my two schools.The hardest or most different part for me was to have the same schedule every day here.Honestly, I prefer to have different classes every day, as I did in my home country.However, I have fallen in love with the Friday football games.Football is one of my favorite sports now.Before I came, I knew nothing about it.Now I love it, especially to watch it with my host parents.I have also been so lucky to go to two college football games.
Before I left school in December, I had a couple of tests called Mid-term Test.They all went pretty smooth, mostly because I didn't have too many hard classes.My favorite class was English, and also my hardest.Personally I really liked English, where I could write essays(文章), challenge writing skills and improve English talking.
Only four days of winter break is left.A part of me wants to be on a break forever, and the other part expects to get started again, start a new sport and see my friends and classmates.

(2026·江苏苏州高一上期中)
Regular exercise is important for teenagers, not just for physical fitness but also for brain development.New research has been uncovering the effects of sports on the teenage brain.
A study published in a leading medical journal followed a group of high school students over a term.One group was required to take part in at least three hours of medium-level to high-level physical activity per week, while the other group had their regular PE classes only, which was less than an hour a week.At the end of the term, the students who exercised more showed clear gains in mental abilities.
They performed better in tasks that required attention, memory, and problem-solving skills.The reasons behind this are connected to the physical and chemical changes in the brain during exercise.When teenagers exercise, the blood flow to the brain increases.This brings more oxygen and nutrients, which are necessary for the healthy functioning of brain cells.Additionally, exercise stimulates (刺激) the release (释放) of certain chemicals in the brain, such as dopamine and endorphins.Dopamine is linked to motivation, focus, and learning, while endorphins can improve mood and reduce stress.
Moreover, team sports play a special role.For example, playing basketball or soccer involves teamwork, communication, and strategic (策略的) thinking.In these sports, teenagers need to quickly judge the situation on the field, make decisions, and work together with their teammates.This not only sharpens their thinking skills but also helps in developing social skills.A coach from a local high school said, “I've seen students become more confident and better at dealing with pressure after joining our school's basketball team.They learn how to communicate with different people and work towards a common goal, which is beneficial both on and off the court.”
However, many teenagers today lead inactive lives, spending long hours sitting in front of screens.This lack of exercise may have negative effects on their brain development.Experts are calling for schools and parents to encourage more physical activities among teenagers, to ensure they grow up with both healthy bodies and sharp minds.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章通过一项研究揭示了运动对青少年大脑的积极影响,分析了运动促进脑力发展的生理机制,强调了团队运动在提升思维与社交能力方面的特殊作用,并呼吁鼓励青少年多参与体育活动。
9.What do we know about the study?
A.Exercise leads to higher school grades.
B.PE classes are good for physical health.
C.Activities cause better task performance.
D.More exercise helps develop brainpower.
细节理解题。根据第二段“A study published in a leading medical journal followed... clear gains in mental abilities.”可知,更多的运动有助于发展脑力。
√
10.What does the underlined word “This” refer to in Paragraph 3?
A.The physical and chemical change.
B.The link between exercise and brain.
C.The healthy functioning of brain cells.
D.The increase in blood flow to the brain.
代词指代题。根据第三段“When teenagers exercise, the blood flow to the brain increases.This brings more oxygen and nutrients, which are necessary for the healthy functioning of brain cells.”可知,“This”指代前文提到的“流向大脑的血液增加”这一现象。
√
11.Why does the author mention the coach in Paragraph 4?
A.To show the need for better coaches.
B.To prove the social benefits of team sports.
C.To stress the importance of winning games.
D.To explain the reason for the effect of sports.
推理判断题。根据第四段“Moreover, team sports play a special role...is beneficial both on and off the court.”可知,作者引用教练的话是为了证明团队运动在提升社交能力、自信心等方面的社会益处。
√
12.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Healthy bodies matter most.
B.Parents ignore their teens' habits.
C.Teenagers prefer active lives today.
D.Too little exercise can harm brain growth.
推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, many teenagers today lead inactive lives, spending long hours sitting in front of screens.This lack of exercise may have negative effects on their brain development.”可知,运动量过少会损害大脑发育。

Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
(2026·北京通州高一上期中)
Should Teenagers Take Action on Environmental Issues?
Climate change, pollution, and environmental destruction (破坏)are some of the biggest challenges we face today.Many adults are working hard to solve these problems. 1 I believe that young people not only can but should play an active role in protecting our environment.
Teenagers have the energy and passion needed for environmental action.Unlike adults who may be busy with work and family responsibilities, young people often have more free time and fewer worries.This allows them to focus on causes they care about.When teenagers believe in something, they put their whole heart into it. 2
3 The answer is that they don't need to become professional scientists or politicians to help the environment.Small changes in lifestyle can have a big impact when many people do them together.For example, using reusable water bottles instead of plastic ones, walking or biking instead of driving short distances, and turning off lights when leaving a room.These actions may seem small, but they add up to make a real difference.
Furthermore, taking action on environmental issues can actually help teenagers with their studies. 4 Students who participate in environmental activities often become more interested in science subjects and perform better in school.
In short, teenagers should definitely take action on environmental issues.They have the passion and the ability to make a positive impact.The future of our planet depends on the actions that we take today. 5 The time for action is now, and young people must be part of the solution.
A.But should teenagers also take action?
B.This passion can inspire others and create changes.
C.How can teenagers protect the environment effectively?
D.Teenagers can make a difference through simple daily actions.
E.Many courses teach valuable skills like research and teamwork.
F.Environmental protection is the responsibility of every teenager.
G.If we wait for someone else to solve these problems, it may be too late.
语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。文章论述青少年有能力且应参与环保,可通过日常小事行动,还能助力学习。
前文“Many adults are working hard to solve these problems.” 提出成年人的环保行动。空处需引出青少年是否该参与的疑问,与前文形成转折衔接。所以A项“但青少年也应该采取行动吗?”符合语境。A 选项以转折疑问承接前文成年人的行动,引出文章核心议题。
Should Teenagers Take Action on Environmental Issues?
Climate change, pollution, and environmental destruction (破坏)are some of the biggest challenges we face today.Many adults are working hard to solve these problems.____________________________________ I believe that young people not only can but should play an active role in protecting our environment.
A.But should teenagers also take action?
前文“When teenagers believe in something, they put their whole heart into it.”强调青少年的投入度。空处需延续“投入”相关,说明其带来的影响。所以B项“这种热情能激励他人并产生改变。”符合语境。B项中“This passion” 与前文“put their whole heart into it”呼应,承接青少年的投入特质。
Teenagers have the energy and passion needed for environmental action. Unlike adults who may be busy with work and family responsibilities, young people often have more free time and fewer worries.This allows them to focus on causes they care about.When teenagers believe in something, they put their whole heart into it. _______________________________________________
B.This passion can inspire others and create changes.
___________________________________________________ The answer is that they don't need to become professional scientists or politicians to help the environment.Small changes in lifestyle can have a big impact when many people do them together.For example, using reusable water bottles instead of plastic ones, walking or biking instead of driving short distances, and turning off lights when leaving a room.These actions may seem small, but they add up to make a real difference.
C.How can teenagers protect the environment effectively?
后文“The answer is that they don't need to become professional scientists or politicians to help the environment.” 给出具体做法相关答案。设空处需提出青少年如何环保的疑问。所以C项“青少年如何有效保护环境?”符合语境。C项以设问引出后文对环保方式的解答,与后文“The answer”直接呼应。
前文“Furthermore, taking action on environmental issues can actually help teenagers with their studies.”说明环保对学习的帮助。设空处需具体解释学习上的益处。所以E项“许多课程教授研究和团队合作等宝贵技能。”符合语境。E项补充环保相关活动涉及的学习技能,呼应前文“help teenagers with their studies”。
Furthermore, taking action on environmental issues can actually help teenagers with their studies. _________________________________________ _____________________ Students who participate in environmental activities often become more interested in science subjects and perform better in school.
E.Many courses teach valuable skills like research and teamwork.
前文“The future of our planet depends on the actions that we take today.”强调当下行动的重要性。空处需进一步凸显及时行动的必要性。所以G项“如果我们等待别人来解决这些问题,可能就太晚了。”符合语境。G项承接“当下行动”的观点,警示等待的后果,与后文“time for action is now”呼应。
In short, teenagers should definitely take action on environmental issues.They have the passion and the ability to make a positive impact.The future of our planet depends on the actions that we take today. ____________ ____________________________________________________ The time for action is now, and young people must be part of the solution.
G.If we wait for someone else to solve these problems, it may be too late.
