Riverside School is trying a new afternoon programme next week. Students in Years 7 and 8 can choose one activity each day. You do not need to join a school team. Beginners are welcome, and equipment is provided. Monday and Thursday: Badminton Basics, 3:40–4:15, in the small gym. Learn to serve and play short games with a partner. The group is limited to sixteen students, so write your name on the gym noticeboard before lunchtime on Friday. Tuesday and Friday: Walk and Talk, 3:40–4:10. Meet outside the library for a walk around the school grounds with a teacher. You can simply turn up on either day. If it rains, the group will move to the covered playground for gentle movement games. Wednesday: Basketball Skills, 4:10–4:50, on the outdoor court. Practise passing and shooting in small groups. No booking is needed. The later start gives students time to visit a subject teacher after lessons. In bad weather, check the sports noticeboard for a new location. The study room beside the library is open from 3:35 to 5:00 every afternoon. You may use it before or after your activity. Bring your own homework; a teacher will be there to help with short questions. Choose a session that fits your journey home. Bring sports shoes and a filled water bottle, even for the walk. Try one afternoon first, then decide what works for your week. 词语：session 一段活动时间；booking 预约 6. What must a student do before joining Badminton Basics? A. Sign up before Friday lunchtime. B.

B Iris loved badminton, but the first month of Year 8 was not going well. She stayed at the sports centre until six on three afternoons each week. Then she took a bus home and opened her schoolbooks after dinner. Her friends saw a busy player; Iris saw an unfinished page every evening. One Thursday, she arrived at practice with her history book still in her hand. Her coach, Mrs Bell, asked her to write down a whole afternoon, including the journey and the time spent waiting. Iris discovered something surprising. The practice itself lasted only fifty minutes. Changing clothes, waiting for friends and missing one bus took almost as long. Together they made a different plan. Iris kept two centre sessions and joined a shorter badminton group at school on Wednesdays. She packed her sports clothes the night before. At the centre, she told her friends which bus she needed to catch instead of staying until everyone was ready. The first Wednesday felt strange. Iris left the school gym while some players were still hitting the shuttlecock. Had she done too little? At home, however, she finished her history work before dinner. Later that evening, she had time to explain a difficult paragraph to her younger brother. After three weeks, Iris was still enjoying badminton. She had not won every practice game, and her homework was not suddenly easy. Yet she no longer felt that school and sport were pulling her in opposite directions. Her new plan did not create more hours. It helped her notice where the hours went. 词语：shuttlecock 羽毛球 10. What surprised Iris when she wrote down her afternoon? A. Her journey home was longer than she thought. B. Activities around practice took a lot of time. C. Her friends spent more time studying than her. D. The coach had added time to each practice. 11. Why did Iris feel strange when she left the gym on Wednesday? A. She worried about travelling home by herself. B. She thought her friends were unhappy with her. C. She found the new badminton group too difficult. D. She wondered whether she had practised enough. 12. What can we learn about Iris from the last two paragraphs? A. She found all her school subjects easy now. B. She gained time without leaving her sport. C. She began to care more about winning games. D. She needed her brother's help with history. 13. What is the best title for the passage? A. Finding the Time Between the Games B. Choosing Between Books and Badminton C. Making Friends Through a School Club D. Learning to Win on a Different Court C At four o'clock, Zoe meant to leave for tennis. At four ten, she was still looking for a clean pair of socks. Then she remembered that her water bottle was in yesterday's schoolbag. By the time she reached the door, the short practice she had planned no longer seemed worth the trip. Her problem was not a dislike of tennis. Too many small jobs stood between her and the court. A sports plan usually tells us what we want to do. A useful plan also considers how we will get started. Putting a packed sports bag beside the door does not improve a tennis serve. It does, however, remove a job from the moment when we are trying to leave. Zoe began checking her bag after dinner. She still had to do the work, but she did it at a quieter time. Choosing a clear time and place can help for a similar reason. 'I will exercise tomorrow' leaves several questions open. Which sport? Where? Before or after homework? 'After my last lesson, I will meet Stella at the school court' answers those questions in advance. Stella also knows when to come. Neither student has to send a long series of messages before they can begin. Even a clear plan can meet a closed gate or a rainy afternoon. That is why a second choice matters. Zoe's coach helped her choose some simple indoor movements for wet days. The indoor session was shorter and did not include hitting a ball. It could not replace every part of tennis practice, but it meant that rain did not always end her activity. A second plan needs to suit the space and the person, rather than copy the first plan exactly. There is also a danger in preparing too much. A student may spend half an hour choosing music for a ten-minute walk. Another may keep changing a beautiful timetable without following it. Preparation has a purpose: to make the next action easier. If it becomes the longest activity of the day, it is time to make it simpler. Zoe's new routine was ordinary: check the bag, agree on a time, and keep a second choice ready. Sometimes schoolwork still changed her plans. But she was no longer using most of her tennis time to get ready for tennis. A small amount of preparation had given her a clearer way to begin. 词语：in advance 提前；preparation 准备；routine 常规 14. What stopped Zoe from starting her planned practice at first? A. Several small preparations delayed her. B. The court was farther away than expected. C. A difficult lesson reduced her interest. D. Her partner suddenly changed the time. 15. Why is the plan involving Stella more useful than 'I will exercise tomorrow'? A. It helps both students choose a different sport. B. It settles practical questions before the activity. C. It gives both students a longer time to practise. D. It allows the students to avoid their homework. 16. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4? A. Changing sports works better than changing places. B. Indoor sessions should repeat normal court movements. C. Shorter practice is best for every busy day. D. A second plan should fit changed conditions. 17. Which student best follows the writer's advice? A. Luke packs his bag but leaves the meeting time open. B. Rose prepares a full outdoor session as her rainy-day plan. C. Gavin packs what he needs, then follows his plan. D. Ella designs a detailed timetable but often starts late. D Dylan showed me his new weekly timetable. Every small box had a job: schoolwork, basketball, reading, even a five-minute snack. He was proud that no time was empty. Then his science homework took twenty minutes longer than expected. Basketball became shorter, dinner became later, and one difficult question seemed to move the whole evening out of place. A timetable can protect the things we care about. Without a plan, an afternoon may disappear while we decide what to do. But filling every minute is not the same as using time well. I believe a good timetable needs some open space. That space is not a mistake in the plan; it is part of what makes the plan useful. Some people disagree. They say that students already spend too much time doing nothing. If we leave an empty box, a phone may quickly fill it. Besides, sports skills need regular practice, and schoolwork cannot simply wait until we feel ready. These are fair points. A plan with no clear starting time can easily become a list of wishes. A football team also cannot begin whenever each player happens to arrive. However, a little open time does not mean a whole afternoon without rules. We can keep the important times fixed: the team session, the family meal, and bedtime. Between them, we can leave room for tasks that take longer than planned. If there is no delay, that room can become a proper break. In Dylan's case, twenty unplanned minutes would have made the difficult science question much less troublesome. Open time has another use: it lets us respond to the people around us. Last week, my neighbour asked me to help carry some light bags home. I could stop because I was not rushing from one task straight into the next. We talked about the little basketball court near her old school. The conversation was not on my timetable, but I was glad it happened. Not every valuable moment arrives at the time we choose. We should still look back at our plans honestly. If an open half-hour becomes two hours on a phone every day, something needs to change. Yet the answer is not necessarily to fill every box. Choose what matters, give it enough time, and leave a little room around it. A timetable should help us live our day, not make the day feel like a race we can never finish. 词语：fixed 固定的；respond 回应；necessarily 必然 18. Why does the writer begin with Dylan's timetable? A. To explain why science is harder than sport. B. To praise a student who works without breaks. C. To suggest a new way of drawing a timetable. D. To show how a full plan can be easily upset. 19. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Schoolwork deserves more time than regular training. B. Empty periods can easily become wasted time. C. School teams need more flexible training times. D. Clear and regular plans have real value. 20. What would the writer probably agree with? A. Finish every task before taking any kind of break. B. Measure a good day by the number of tasks finished. C. Protect key activities while allowing some changes. D. Keep each empty period free from useful activities. 21. What is the best title for the passage? A. Leave a Little Room in Your Day B. Make a Timetable for Other People C. Turn Every Break into a Sports Game D. Find a Faster Way to Finish Work 三、完形填空 A Nora's volleyball practice usually began at four. One Tuesday, she reached the sports hall and found a notice on the door. A school meeting had finished late, so practice would begin forty minutes __22__. Nora's father was still coming to collect her at five. She felt __23__: most of her training time would be gone. Nora sat outside with her schoolbag. She thought about the English report waiting for her at home. Then the coach opened an empty classroom for the players. 'You can wait here,' he said. Nora took out her notebook, but several friends were talking. She nearly __24__ them. Instead, she moved to a quiet desk and began to __25__ the report. At first, she kept checking the clock. Then she became interested in choosing the right words. When the coach called the team, she had finished the first __26__. It was not much, but it was a real start. Nora explained her problem to the coach. He agreed that she could leave at five and helped her choose one passing skill to __27__ during the short session. She __28__ each instruction carefully and used the time well. On the way home, Nora told her father about the __29__. She had expected the afternoon to be wasted, yet she had worked on both her report and her sport. That evening, she left a little __30__ in next week's timetable. She still liked having a plan.

At each lesson, the coach checked the safety equipment and showed the group where to practise. Toby liked the bright holds on the wall, but one short route always stopped him at the same place. He could reach a yellow hold, then had no idea how to reach the blue one above it. He thought his arms were not __32__ enough. After another unsuccessful try, he gave himself the same __33__: 'Pull harder next time.' He tried again, with the coach watching, and stopped at exactly the same point. His fingers were tired, and he was getting annoyed. The coach asked him to take a __34__. While sitting on a bench, Toby __35__ a younger climber on a nearby practice wall. She did not rush. Before moving a hand, she looked down and carefully changed the position of her __36__. Toby had been looking only at the next hold for his hands. When the coach returned, Toby asked about what he had seen. Together, they looked at his route from the ground and made a __37__. He would first practise a small movement on a low part of the wall, following the coach's instructions. There was no need to hurry towards the top. The new movement felt unusual. Toby had to shift his body before reaching up, so that he could move one hand without losing his __38__. On his next try, he __39__ a useful hold that he had completely missed before. He still did not finish the route that afternoon, but this time he could explain what had stopped him. At home, Toby drew the difficult part in a notebook. Under the drawing, he wrote a problem, a possible __40__, and a question for his coach. The next lesson began with that question. Several lessons later, he finally reached the blue hold. He smiled, then looked carefully at the next part of the route. Toby still worked hard, but his idea of practice had changed. Repeating a move was only part of it. He also needed to watch, think and ask. Reaching the top remained exciting.

She stayed at the sports centre until six on three afternoons each week. Then she took a bus home and opened her schoolbooks after dinner. Her friends saw a busy player; Iris saw an unfinished page every evening. One Thursday, she arrived at practice with her history book still in her hand. Her coach, Mrs Bell, asked her to write down a whole afternoon, including the journey and the time spent waiting. Iris discovered something surprising. The practice itself lasted only fifty minutes. Changing clothes, waiting for friends and missing one bus took almost as long. Together they made a different plan. Iris kept two centre sessions and joined a shorter badminton group at school on Wednesdays. She packed her sports clothes the night before. At the centre, she told her friends which bus she needed to catch instead of staying until everyone was ready. The first Wednesday felt strange. Iris left the school gym while some players were still hitting the shuttlecock. Had she done too little? At home, however, she finished her history work before dinner. Later that evening, she had time to explain a difficult paragraph to her younger brother. After three weeks, Iris was still enjoying badminton. She had not won every practice game, and her homework was not suddenly easy. Yet she no longer felt that school and sport were pulling her in opposite directions. Her new plan did not create more hours. It helped her notice where the hours went. 词语：shuttlecock 羽毛球 10. What surprised Iris when she wrote down her afternoon? A. Her journey home was longer than she thought. B. Activities around practice took a lot of time. C. Her friends spent more time studying than her. D. The coach had added time to each practice. 【答案】B　【考点】细节理解 【解析】第二段指出，换衣服、等人、错过公交消耗的时间几乎与50分钟的训练一样长。让她惊讶的是训练之外的环节也占用了很多时间。 11. Why did Iris feel strange when she left the gym on Wednesday? A. She worried about travelling home by herself. B. She thought her friends were unhappy with her. C. She found the new badminton group too difficult. D. She wondered whether she had practised enough. 【答案】D　【考点】原因理解 【解析】第四段中她看到别人还在练习，并自问“Had she done too little?”，因此她担心自己的练习量是否足够。 12. What can we learn about Iris from the last two paragraphs? A. She found all her school subjects easy now. B. She gained time without leaving her sport. C. She began to care more about winning games. D. She needed her brother's help with history. 【答案】B　【考点】推断理解 【解析】艾丽斯能按时完成作业，也能帮助弟弟，同时仍然喜欢并坚持打羽毛球，说明她在继续运动的同时更好地利用了时间。 13. What is the best title for the passage? A. Finding the Time Between the Games B. Choosing Between Books and Badminton C. Making Friends Through a School Club D. Learning to Win on a Different Court 【答案】A　【考点】最佳标题 【解析】全文围绕发现训练前后被消耗的时间、调整安排展开。标题应突出找到并利用这些时间。她没有在学习与羽毛球之间二选一，也没有把获胜作为重点。 参考译文 艾丽斯喜欢羽毛球，但八年级的第一个月过得并不顺利。她每周有三个下午在体育中心待到六点，之后坐公交回家，晚饭后才打开课本。朋友们看到的是一位忙碌的球员，而艾丽斯每晚看到的都是没完成的作业。 一个周四，她来到训练场时手里还拿着历史书。教练贝尔女士让她记录整个下午的安排，包括路程和等待的时间。艾丽斯有了一个令人惊讶的发现：训练本身只持续50分钟，换衣服、等朋友和错过一班公交所花的时间加起来几乎与训练一样长。 她们一起制订了一个不同的计划。艾丽斯保留两次体育中心训练，周三则参加学校里时间较短的羽毛球活动。她前一天晚上就收好运动服。在体育中心，她会告诉朋友自己需要赶哪班公交，而不再一直等到所有人都准备好。 第一个周三让她有些不习惯。她离开学校体育馆时，一些球员还在打球。自己是不是练得太少了？不过回家后，她在晚饭前就做完了历史作业。那天晚些时候，她还有空给弟弟解释一个难懂的段落。 三周后，艾丽斯依然喜欢羽毛球。她并不是每场练习赛都获胜，作业也没有突然变简单。但她不再觉得学习与运动在把自己拉向相反的方向。新计划没有创造更多时间，却帮助她注意到时间花在了哪里。 C At four o'clock, Zoe meant to leave for tennis. At four ten, she was still looking for a clean pair of socks. Then she remembered that her water bottle was in yesterday's schoolbag. By the time she reached the door, the short practice she had planned no longer seemed worth the trip. Her problem was not a dislike of tennis. Too many small jobs stood between her and the court. A sports plan usually tells us what we want to do. A useful plan also considers how we will get started. Putting a packed sports bag beside the door does not improve a tennis serve. It does, however, remove a job from the moment when we are trying to leave. Zoe began checking her bag after dinner. She still had to do the work, but she did it at a quieter time. Choosing a clear time and place can help for a similar reason. 'I will exercise tomorrow' leaves several questions open. Which sport? Where? Before or after homework? 'After my last lesson, I will meet Stella at the school court' answers those questions in advance. Stella also knows when to come. Neither student has to send a long series of messages before they can begin. Even a clear plan can meet a closed gate or a rainy afternoon. That is why a second choice matters. Zoe's coach helped her choose some simple indoor movements for wet days. The indoor session was shorter and did not include hitting a ball. It could not replace every part of tennis practice, but it meant that rain did not always end her activity. A second plan needs to suit the space and the person, rather than copy the first plan exactly. There is also a danger in preparing too much.

Several small preparations delayed her. B. The court was farther away than expected. C. A difficult lesson reduced her interest. D. Her partner suddenly changed the time. 【答案】A　【考点】细节理解 【解析】第一段写到她找袜子、找水瓶，许多琐事使出门时间推迟。文中没有说她失去了运动兴趣或同伴临时改时间。 15. Why is the plan involving Stella more useful than 'I will exercise tomorrow'? A. It helps both students choose a different sport. B. It settles practical questions before the activity. C. It gives both students a longer time to practise. D. It allows the students to avoid their homework. 【答案】B　【考点】原因理解 【解析】第三段说明，这个计划提前确定了运动地点、时间和同伴，免去临出发前反复沟通，解决的是如何实际开始的问题。 16. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4? A. Changing sports works better than changing places. B. Indoor sessions should repeat normal court movements. C. Shorter practice is best for every busy day. D. A second plan should fit changed conditions. 【答案】D　【考点】段落大意 【解析】第四段以雨天活动为例说明备用计划的重要性，并强调要根据空间和个人调整，不能照搬原方案。 17. Which student best follows the writer's advice? A. Luke packs his bag but leaves the meeting time open. B. Rose prepares a full outdoor session as her rainy-day plan. C. Gavin packs what he needs, then follows his plan. D. Ella designs a detailed timetable but often starts late. 【答案】C　【考点】推断理解 【解析】作者主张适量准备、明确安排并实际行动。提前装好所需物品后按计划行动最符合这一观点；其他做法虽有安排或准备，却分别没有及时行动、未确定见面时间或未按雨天条件调整。 参考译文 四点时，佐伊原本打算出门去打网球。四点十分，她还在找一双干净袜子。随后她想起水瓶在昨天用的书包里。等她走到门口时，原计划的那段短时间练习似乎已经不值得专程跑一趟。问题不是她不喜欢网球，而是她与球场之间隔着太多琐碎的小事。 运动计划通常告诉我们想做什么，而实用的计划还会考虑如何开始。把装好的运动包放在门边并不能提高网球发球水平，但确实能在我们准备出门时减少一项任务。佐伊开始在晚饭后检查运动包。这项工作仍然要做，只是她选择了一个更从容的时间来做。 确定明确的时间和地点也能起到类似作用。“我明天要锻炼”仍然留下几个没解决的问题：做什么运动？在哪里？作业之前还是之后？“最后一节课后，我要在学校球场与斯特拉碰面”则提前回答了这些问题。斯特拉也知道什么时候来。两个学生都不必在开始之前发一长串消息沟通。 即使计划很明确，也可能遇到大门关闭或下午下雨的情况，所以备用选择很重要。佐伊的教练帮她挑选了一些适合雨天的简单室内动作。室内活动时间较短，也不包括击球。它无法代替网球训练的每个部分，却意味着雨天不再总会终止她的活动。备用计划需要适合场地和个人，而不是原样复制第一个计划。 准备过多也有问题。一个学生可能花半小时为十分钟的散步挑选音乐，另一个人可能不断修改一张漂亮的时间表，却不按它行动。准备是有目的的：让下一步行动更容易。如果它成了一天中最耗时的活动，就该简化了。 佐伊的新常规很普通：检查运动包，约定时间，准备好备用选择。有时学习任务还是会改变她的计划，但她不再把大部分网球练习时间用于准备打网球。少量的提前准备，让她更清楚该怎样开始。 D Dylan showed me his new weekly timetable. Every small box had a job: schoolwork, basketball, reading, even a five-minute snack. He was proud that no time was empty. Then his science homework took twenty minutes longer than expected. Basketball became shorter, dinner became later, and one difficult question seemed to move the whole evening out of place. A timetable can protect the things we care about. Without a plan, an afternoon may disappear while we decide what to do. But filling every minute is not the same as using time well. I believe a good timetable needs some open space. That space is not a mistake in the plan; it is part of what makes the plan useful. Some people disagree. They say that students already spend too much time doing nothing. If we leave an empty box, a phone may quickly fill it. Besides, sports skills need regular practice, and schoolwork cannot simply wait until we feel ready. These are fair points. A plan with no clear starting time can easily become a list of wishes. A football team also cannot begin whenever each player happens to arrive. However, a little open time does not mean a whole afternoon without rules. We can keep the important times fixed: the team session, the family meal, and bedtime. Between them, we can leave room for tasks that take longer than planned. If there is no delay, that room can become a proper break. In Dylan's case, twenty unplanned minutes would have made the difficult science question much less troublesome. Open time has another use: it lets us respond to the people around us. Last week, my neighbour asked me to help carry some light bags home. I could stop because I was not rushing from one task straight into the next. We talked about the little basketball court near her old school. The conversation was not on my timetable, but I was glad it happened. Not every valuable moment arrives at the time we choose. We should still look back at our plans honestly. If an open half-hour becomes two hours on a phone every day, something needs to change. Yet the answer is not necessarily to fill every box. Choose what matters, give it enough time, and leave a little room around it. A timetable should help us live our day, not make the day feel like a race we can never finish. 词语：fixed 固定的；respond 回应；necessarily 必然 18. Why does the writer begin with Dylan's timetable? A. To explain why science is harder than sport. B. To praise a student who works without breaks. C. To suggest a new way of drawing a timetable. D. To show how a full plan can be easily upset. 【答案】D　【考点】写作意图 【解析】迪伦把所有时间都排满，一道题多用二十分钟就打乱了后续安排。这个例子引出满负荷计划缺乏余地的问题。 19. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Schoolwork deserves more time than regular training. B. Empty periods can easily become wasted time. C. School teams need more flexible training times. D. Clear and regular plans have real value. 【答案】D　【考点】段落大意 【解析】第三段呈现反方意见并承认其合理性：空余可能被手机占用，训练需要规律，学习和团队活动也需要明确安排。核心是肯定清晰、规律的计划的价值。“空余可能被浪费”只是其中一个理由，不能概括全段。 20. What would the writer probably agree with? A. Finish every task before taking any kind of break. B. Measure a good day by the number of tasks finished. C. Protect key activities while allowing some changes. D. Keep each empty period free from useful activities. 【答案】C　【考点】观点态度 【解析】第四段提出固定训练、用餐和就寝等重要时间，同时为延误留出余地；末段也强调确定重要事项并留白。因此应兼顾重要活动与适当调整。 21. What is the best title for the passage? A. Leave a Little Room in Your Day B. Make a Timetable for Other People C. Turn Every Break into a Sports Game D. Find a Faster Way to Finish Work 【答案】A　【考点】最佳标题 【解析】全文论点是在日程中保留少量空余，并从应对延误、适当休息和回应他人等方面展开。标题应概括“给一天留一点余地”。 参考译文 迪伦给我看了他新做的一周时间表。每个小格子都有任务：学习、篮球、阅读，甚至连吃点心都有五分钟的安排。他为没有空着的时间感到自豪。后来，他的科学作业比预想的多花了二十分钟，篮球时间缩短了，晚饭推迟了，一个难题似乎就打乱了整个晚上的安排。 时间表能保障我们重视的事情。没有计划，一个下午可能就在犹豫做什么的过程中流逝了。但填满每一分钟不等于善用时间。我认为，好的时间表需要一些留白。这些空余不是计划中的错误，而是让计划真正有用的一部分。 有些人不同意。他们说，学生已经花了太多时间无所事事。如果留一个空格，手机可能很快就会把它填满。此外，运动技能需要规律练习，学习任务也不能一直等到我们想做时再做。这些观点有道理。没有明确开始时间的计划，很容易变成一张愿望清单。足球队也不能等每个球员想来时才开始。 不过，留少量空余时间不等于让整个下午毫无规则。我们可以固定重要的时间：球队训练、家庭用餐和就寝时间。在它们之间，为超出预计时长的任务留些余地。如果没有延误，这些空余就可以成为适当的休息。就迪伦的情况而言，二十分钟未作安排的时间本可以让那道科学难题不那么令人头疼。 留白还有一个作用：让我们能够回应身边的人。上周，邻居请我帮忙把几个轻便袋子提回家。我能停下来帮她，因为我没有急着从一个任务马上赶向下一个。我们聊到了她以前学校附近的小篮球场。这段交谈不在我的时间表上，但我很高兴它发生了。并非每个有价值的时刻都会在我们选定的时间到来。 我们仍应诚实地回顾自己的计划。如果每天预留的半小时都变成了玩手机两小时，就需要改变。不过，解决办法不一定是填满每个格子。选出重要的事，给它足够的时间，再在它周围留一点余地。时间表应该帮助我们度过一天，而不应让一天变成一场永远跑不到终点的竞赛。 三、完形填空 A Nora's volleyball practice usually began at four.

At each lesson, the coach checked the safety equipment and showed the group where to practise. Toby liked the bright holds on the wall, but one short route always stopped him at the same place. He could reach a yellow hold, then had no idea how to reach the blue one above it. He thought his arms were not __32__ enough. After another unsuccessful try, he gave himself the same __33__: 'Pull harder next time.' He tried again, with the coach watching, and stopped at exactly the same point. His fingers were tired, and he was getting annoyed. The coach asked him to take a __34__. While sitting on a bench, Toby __35__ a younger climber on a nearby practice wall. She did not rush. Before moving a hand, she looked down and carefully changed the position of her __36__. Toby had been looking only at the next hold for his hands. When the coach returned, Toby asked about what he had seen. Together, they looked at his route from the ground and made a __37__. He would first practise a small movement on a low part of the wall, following the coach's instructions. There was no need to hurry towards the top. The new movement felt unusual. Toby had to shift his body before reaching up, so that he could move one hand without losing his __38__. On his next try, he __39__ a useful hold that he had completely missed before. He still did not finish the route that afternoon, but this time he could explain what had stopped him. At home, Toby drew the difficult part in a notebook. Under the drawing, he wrote a problem, a possible __40__, and a question for his coach. The next lesson began with that question. Several lessons later, he finally reached the blue hold. He smiled, then looked carefully at the next part of the route. Toby still worked hard, but his idea of practice had changed. Repeating a move was only part of it. He also needed to watch, think and ask. Reaching the top remained exciting. Now, however, he knew that every careful try could help him __41__ along the way. 词语：hold 攀岩支点；route 攀爬路线；shift 移动 32 A. clean B. long C. warm D. strong 【答案】D　【考点】形容词辨析 【解析】后文他要求自己“Pull harder next time”，可知他起初认为问题是手臂力量不足，即不够 strong。 33 A. praise B. news C. advice D. permission 【答案】C　【考点】名词辨析 【解析】“下次再用力拉”是他给自己下一次尝试的建议，应用 advice。 34 A. rest B. test C. photo D. risk 【答案】A　【考点】名词与搭配 【解析】他的手指疲劳，随后坐到长椅上，说明教练让他休息，take a rest 为固定搭配。 35 A. thanked B. followed C. called D. watched 【答案】D　【考点】动词辨析 【解析】他坐在长椅上看到另一名学员的具体动作，是在观察她，用 watched。 36 A. feet B. shoulders C. hands D. head 【答案】A　【考点】名词辨析 【解析】她向下看，在移动手之前先调整下肢的位置，与托比只关注手的支点形成对比，应用 feet。 37 A. score B. plan C. report D. message 【答案】B　【考点】名词与搭配 【解析】后面具体说明先在低处练习小动作，表明他们制订了接下来的练习计划，made a plan 最贴切。 38 A. voice B. interest C. balance D. patience 【答案】C　【考点】名词与搭配 【解析】先移动身体是为了伸手时不失去身体平衡，lose one's balance 意为“失去平衡”。 39 A. missed B. noticed C. expected D. avoided 【答案】B　【考点】动词辨析 【解析】后半句说这个有用的支点此前完全被他忽略了，说明这一次他注意到了它，用 noticed。 40 A. mistake B. excuse C. prize D. solution 【答案】D　【考点】名词辨析 【解析】他记录练习中的问题，并准备继续改进，所以与 problem 对应的是可能的解决办法 solution。 41 A. hurry B. learn C. win D. copy 【答案】B　【考点】动词辨析与主旨理解 【解析】全文强调通过观察、思考、提问改进练习。因此每次认真尝试都能帮助他学习，而不仅仅是争取登顶，用 learn 概括主旨。 参考译文 托比参加了一门室内攀岩入门课程。每节课，教练都会检查安全装备，并告诉大家在哪里练习。托比喜欢墙上颜色鲜艳的支点，但有一条短路线总让他卡在同一个地方。他能够够到一个黄色支点，却不知道怎样够到它上方的蓝色支点。 他觉得自己的手臂不够强壮。又一次尝试失败后，他给自己同样的建议：“下次再用力拉。”在教练的看护下，他再次尝试，却又停在完全相同的位置。他的手指累了，人也开始烦躁起来。 教练让他休息一下。坐在长椅上时，托比观察了一名在附近练习墙上攀爬的年纪更小的学员。她并不着急。每次移动手之前，她都会低头看，并小心调整双脚的位置。托比之前一直只盯着手接下来要抓的支点。 教练回来后，托比请教了自己看到的动作。他们一起站在地面观察他的路线，并制订了计划。他会先按照教练指导，在墙的较低位置练习一个小动作，没有必要急着爬向顶端。 这个新动作让托比不太习惯。向上伸手前，他需要先移动身体，这样移动一只手时才不会失去平衡。下一次尝试时，他注意到了一个有用的支点，而自己此前完全没有发现它。那天下午他仍然没有完成整条路线，但这次他能解释是什么阻碍了自己。 回家后，托比在笔记本上画出了困难的那一部分。他在图下写了一个问题、一种可能的解决办法，以及一个想请教教练的问题。下一节课从那个问题开始。又上了几节课后，他终于够到了蓝色支点。他笑了笑，然后认真观察路线的下一部分。 托比仍然努力练习，但他对练习的理解已经变了。重复一个动作只是其中一部分，他还需要观察、思考和提问。到达顶端依然令人兴奋，但现在他知道，途中的每一次认真尝试都能帮助自己学习。 四、完成句子 42. 上课时，请只专注于你的学业。 In class, please __________ your schoolwork only. 【答案】focus on 【解析】focus on 意为“专注于”。祈使句用动词原形。 43. 我们应该在训练和学习之间平衡时间。 We should __________ between training and studies. 【答案】balance our time 【解析】balance one's time between… and… 表示在两件事之间平衡时间；主语为 we，用 our。 44. 你练习得越认真，就会打得越好。 The more carefully you practise, __________ you will play. 【答案】the better 【解析】“the + 比较级…, the + 比较级…”表示“越……，越……”。well 的比较级为 better。 45. 请为放学后的运动留出一些时间。 Please __________ for sport after school. 【答案】save some time 【解析】save some time for… 意为“为……留出一些时间”。也可用 leave some time。 46. 散步是保持健康的一种简单方法。 Walking is a simple way to __________. 【答案】keep fit 【解析】keep fit 意为“保持健康”。to 后接动词原形。也可用 keep healthy 或 stay healthy。 五、书面表达 47. 假如你是 Alex，你的朋友 Ben 最近参加了学校篮球队，常因训练后赶作业而烦恼，想知道怎样兼顾运动和学习。请给他写一封英文邮件，提出至少两条具体建议，并说明理由。词数不少于60词。 写作思路 先回应 Ben 的烦恼，再围绕时间安排、提前准备、专注学习等提出具体建议，并说明建议的作用，最后给予鼓励。可用 make a weekly plan、focus on、save time、in advance 等表达。 Possible Version 1 Dear Ben, I understand your problem. First, make a weekly plan and leave enough time for homework and basketball. You can finish some work before practice, so you will feel less worried afterwards. Second, pack your sports bag the night before. This can save time. During lessons, focus on your schoolwork. You do not have to give up the sport you love. Try the plan and change it when necessary. Yours, Alex Possible Version 2 Dear Ben, Basketball and schoolwork do not have to compete for every minute of your day. Start by recording one normal afternoon, including travel and waiting time. You may discover time you can use differently. Then agree on a realistic training schedule with your coach and protect a regular homework period. Pack your sports things in advance so that getting ready does not steal practice time. Most importantly, leave some room for unexpected tasks. A timetable that collapses after one difficult question is too crowded. Review your plan each weekend and adjust it. The aim is steady progress in both areas, with time to rest. Yours, Alex 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
