Aerobics-1970s Aerobics took off to improve the cardiovascular(心血管的)system in a fun way and dance moves were combined with fitness movements,such as leg raises and marching in place.Aerobics inspired many different spin-offs from dance and step aerobics,to even water-based classes,all set to music. Spinning-1990s Spinning launched a cycling revolution in the 1990s which continues to this day,thanks to big-name gyms which have made cycling on fixed bikes a party for participants.Colour-changing lights, high-energy music and enthusiastic instructors have turned spinning classes into a lively group activity which has attracted fans around the world. Cross Fit-—2000s CrossFit has been a team favourite in the fitness scene since the 2000s.The activity is competitive yet shared,with scores being tracked on a board.Classes typically last an hour or less,making each session an intense and time-efficient workout which many are able to fit into their busy schedules. HIIT-2020s HIIT,which stands for High Intensity Interval Training,has gained in popularity recently,along 第1页共8页高一英语 with the rise of home workouts.Exercises,done in short,intense bursts,aim to build strength and endurance.HIIT can be done through free online classes without any equipment,making it an affordable workout at home. 21.Which sport is mixed with dances?

B Born in 1887 in a Russian-Jewish town,Marc Chagall started his formal education in painting at the age of 19.Disappointed with the colours of traditional Russian art,he loved to paint with strong blues, reds and yellows. So in 1911,he moved to Paris,France,where artists from around the world were creating novel art forms and he acquired fresh ways of painting eagerly.He stayed true to his childhood memories.While others chose modern subjects,he painted scenes of fantasy based on an older,farmer-like way of life. Blue dogs,yellow skies and red trees were all creations of his imagination. Chagall went through two world wars and personal sufferings.In 1941,because his family were Jewish,the Chagalls had to leave France to escape the Nazis during World War II.In 1944 came another blow.Chagall's beloved wife Bella died of an illness.Despite the hardships,his passion for painting never faded.In 1948,he returned to France and continued to make his dreamlike paintings. One day,during a walk in a village,he discovered a 700-year-old church,where he saw a stained glass window(彩色玻璃窗)that contained a green horse.It looked as if Chagall might have created it himself.Here was a sure sign,he thought,that he should create his own stained glass windows. Then Chagall devoted all his energy and time to the work.As we know,many stained glass windows are made of flat colours,but Chagall used various techniques to create the effects he wanted. He made flexible use of bright colours,putting light into the works.He painted images on glass,then had them fired to high temperatures,making the lines and colours part of the glass. Chagall created the stained glass windows for churches and other buildings around the world until his death in 1985.He gave them as gifts to the world and often refused payment.Today,people are still amazed at how his stained glass creations shine and change with the sun. 24.Why did Chagall choose to go to Paris? A.To learn new painting skills. B.To publicise his new ideas about art. C.To experience the colourful local life. D.To participate in modern art exhibitions 25.What led Chagall to design stained glass windows? A.His desire to let in more sunlight. B.Intention to improve the quality of glass C.Encouragement from some famous artists. D.Inspiration from an ancient church window. 第2页共8页高一英语 26.What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A.Chagall's working attitude. B.The images Chagall created. C.Chagall's artistic experiences. D.Chagall's creativity in his works. 27.Which of the following can best describe Chagall as an artist? A.Imaginative and honest. B.Generous and easy-going. C.Creative and strong-willed. D.Energetic and traditional. C As the saying goes,practice makes perfect.While it may sound like good advice,it's not the best or fastest path because practice can only get you so far,says Scott Young,author of Get Better at Anything: 12 Maxims for Mastery. "Practice is not a cure-all,"Young explains."It doesn't necessarily improve your skills but rather makes them more automatic and fluent."In his book,Young clarifies this concept with a game where players fit falling blocks to complete lines.The more you practise,the faster and more accurate you become at placing the blocks.However,simply practising doesn't guarantee higher scores.To reach higher proficiency ()one must go beyond repetitive practice and use the correct techniques. Young said,"It's important to do the correct technique from the beginning.That's why piano teachers and tennis coaches prefer to train someone who has had no experience rather than someone who has had a lot of experience.By starting with the correct techniques,beginners can grasp skills more quickly.Without established habits to break,they are more likely to build a strong base for long-term improvement.” Malcolm Gladwell popularised the 10,000-hour rule in his book Outliers:The Story of Success, suggesting that proficiency in any field requires about 10,000 hours of practice.Yet Anders Ericsson, whose research was a big inspiration for this concept,disagreed.He argued for the idea of deliberate practice,which was not just practice but practice under the guidance with immediate feedback about your performance.He stressed that learning from outcomes through corrective feedback is essential for developing true proficiency,otherwise you just spend time getting fluency and confidence. Getting high-quality feedback will depend on how you ask for it.Simply asking someone "What do you think?is not a good choice."There's just no way in our social network that someone could give you really honest feedback and not cause harm to the relationship,"Young says.Instead,he suggests asking,"If you were going to make this better,what would you do?By asking how to improve it,we shift the focus from judgement to practical steps for addressing any concerns. 28.What idea does Scott Young put forward in his book? A.High scores need consistent practice.B.Fluency comes from regular practice. C.Right skills don't guarantee success. D.Practice may not ensure excellence. 29.Why did Young mention piano teachers and tennis coaches in paragraph 3? A.To introduce a new idea. B.To make a comparison C.To illustrate a point. D.To confirm a guess. 30.What did Anders Ericsson advocate? A.Practising under effective guidance. B.Increasing the frequency of practice. 第3页共8页高一英语 C.Enhancing the fluency of performance. D.Getting confident from positive feedback. 31.What is a better way to ask for feedback in Young's opinion? A.Turning to strangers for help. B.Not expecting honest response. C.Asking for ways of improving. D.Preparing for any judgement. D Now,there's increasing evidence that strengthening the muscles we use to breathe is beneficial. New research shows that daily muscle training for breathing muscles helps promote heart health and reduces blood pressure. "The muscles we use to breathe tend to weaken as we get older,"explains researcher Daniel,a physiologist at the University of Colorado Boulder.To test what happens when these muscles are given a good workout,he and his colleagues recruited (healthy volunteers aged 18 to 82 to try a daily five-minute technique using a resistance-breathing training device.When people breathe into it,the device provides resistance,making it harder to breathe in."We found that doing 30 breaths per day for six weeks lowers systolic blood pressure by about 9 mmHg,"Daniel says.According to Joyner,a physician at the Mayo Clinic who studies how the nervous system regulates blood pressure,that is the type of reduction with a blood pressure drug. So,how exactly does breath training lower blood pressure?Daniel points to the role of endothelial cells(内皮细胞)，which promote the production of NO.NO helps widen our blood vessels(血管)and promote good blood flow."What we found was that six weeks of the training will increase endothelial function by about 45%,"Daniel explains. The new study builds on a previous study and adds to the evidence that the training is beneficial for adults of all ages.Before the results came in,Daniel had suspected that young,healthy adults might not benefit as much."But we saw strong effects,"he says,pointing to a significant decline in blood pressure for participants of all ages.He says the finding suggests the training could help healthy young people prevent heart disease and the rise in blood pressure that tends to occur with aging. The technique is not intended to replace exercise,he cautions,or to replace medicine for people with high blood pressure.Instead,Daniel says,"It would be a good additional intervention for people who are doing other healthy lifestyle approaches already." 32.Who was most likely to be a volunteer in the study? A.An adult working nearby. B.A pupil from a local school. C.A senior with heart disease. D.A backpacker staying for 2 weeks. 33.What does the underlined word"that"in paragraph 2 refer to? A.Giving breathing muscles a good workout. B.Doing 30 breaths per day for six weeks. C.Regulating blood pressure by the nerves. D.Lowering blood pressure by about 9 mmHg 34.What can be known about the research result? A.It was far from satisfactory. B.It confirmed Daniel's doubt. C.It was contrary to the previous study. D.It was beyond Daniel's expectations. 35.What is the best title for the text? A.Lifestyle Approaches:Preventing Blood Diseases. B.Weightlifting:A Path to Strengthen Muscles. 第4页共8页高一英语 C.Breathing Exercises:Lowering Blood Pressure. D.Muscle Training:A Way to Promote Health. 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。 Have you ever had a staring contest?It can be difficult to keep your eyes open for long periods of time because of the natural tendency to blink.But why do we need to blink? There are two main reasons.First,blinking clears away dust from the eyes.36 It might be under the eyelid or something that blew in.Second,blinking lubricates (the eyeballs.The eyes need a smooth surface for light to properly focus on,so vision becomes clear.Blinking releases a tear film which mostly consists of water,oil and mucus (to keep the surface of the eyeball smooth. 37_The tear film also supplies oxygen to the eye.Blood vessels(血管)don't reach the cornea(角膜)， but the tear film directly transfers oxygen to it. Blinking happens naturally.It takes the average person 400 milliseconds to blink.Most people blink somewhere between 10 and 20 times per minute,usually around 15 or 16 times.38 For example, you may blink more frequently if there's something in your eye.Certain conditions can make it feel like there's something in your eye,which makes you blink more.Some people have habitual involuntary movements that lead them to blink frequently.39 If you have uncorrected vision problems,you may blink more often because your eyes are naturally try ing to correct the unclear vision. If there is damage to the facial nerve,which is responsible for closing the eyelid,a person may blink more slowly or less often.Tiredness and some medications can cause a similar effect.40 For example,when reading,people tend to blink at the end of a sentence rather than in the middle. A.It also prevents the eyes from drying out. B.If there's a foreign body,it helps get rid of it. C.And stress and anxiety can make you blink more,too. D.Blinking more often than needed can give your brain extra stress. E.Pinkeye and other types of infection can also cause damage to eyes. F.However,there are some circumstances that make people blink more or less often. G.Focusing on something like watching a movie,you may blink less to strengthen your focus. 第二部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I'm a music enthusiast.As a teenager,I couldn't leave the house without my 41.My summers were filled with festivals,and my shelves with 42.
