Criticism from coaches, parents and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional,or psychological and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parentsand coaches’ criticisms to heart and find faults in themselves.Coaches and parents should also be cautious that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’s youth sport setting young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find faults with youngsters’performances. Positive support should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive support motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.36.An effective way to prevent the burnout ofyoung athletes is_________.A.to make sport less competitiveB.to increase their sense of successC.to reduce their mental stressD.to make sport more challenging37.Ac cording to the passage，sport is positive foryoung people in that__________.A.it can help them learn more about societyB.it enables them to find faults in themselvesC.it can provide them with valuableexperiencesD.it teaches them how to set realistic goals forthemselves38.Many coaches and parents are in the habit ofcriticizing young athletes________．A.believing that criticism is beneficial for theirearly developmentB.without realizing criticism may destroy theirself confidenceC.in order to make them remember life’slessonsD.so as to put more pressure on them39.According to the passage parents and coachesshould________．A.pay more attention to letting children enjoysportB.help children to win every gameC.train children to cope with stressD.enable children to understand the positiveaspect of sport40.The author’s purpose in writing the passageis________.A.to teach young athletes how to avoid burnoutB.to persuade young children not to worry aboutcriticismC.to stress the importance of positive support tochildrenD.to discuss the skill of combining criticism withencouragementBIf the Olympic Games are a history of mankind，wrestling(摔跤)is the prologue(序幕).When the ancient Games of the Olympiad were born,wrestling was already an ancient game.Widely recognized as the world’s oldest competitive sport，wrestling appeared in a series of Egyptian wall paintings as early as 5，000 years ago.When the ancient Olympic Games began in 776 BC，more than two thousand years later，it included wrestling and in the years that followed，wrestling featured as the main event.The sport would return in a similar role when the Olympic Games returned after a 1500-year absence in anizers，seeking direct links to ancient times，found wrestling was very popular across much of the ancient world，from Greece，Assyria and Babylon to India,China and Japan.Greco Roman wrestling，a style which was believed to be passed down from the Greek and Roman wrestlers of old was brought back into use.In Greco-Roman wrestling，the wrestlers used only their arms and upper bodies to attack.They could hold only those same parts of their opponents(对手).It worked nicely from a historical attitude，but another cheerful and relaxing style was sweeping across Great Britain and the United States by then.Known as “catch as catch can”，it had become popular at fairs and festivals in both countries.In 1904，the Olympic Games added the second wrestling event and called it “freestyle”.Now，wrestlers could use their legs for pushing，lifting and tripping，and they could hold opponents above or below the waist.41.The first ancient Games of the Olympiad wereheld more than_______ years ago.A.776B.1,500C.2,500D.5,00042.What does the writer want to tell us by saying wrestling is the prologue?A.The ancient Olympic Games had a long history.B.Wrestling was an important game in theancient Olympic Games.C.Wrestling is popular all the time.D.Wrestling has a really long history.43.Why was Greco- Roman wrestling brought back into use in 1896 when the Olympic Games returned?anizers wanted to find direct links toancient times.B.Wrestling was very popular across much of theancient world.C.People believed it was passed down from theGreek and Roman wrestlers of old.D.All the above.44.Another style of wrestling became popularacross Great Britain and the United States，because it was________.petitiveB.difficultC.cheerful and relaxingD.interestingCThe Olympic Games are held every four years in a different city in the world.Athletes from many countries compete in a variety of sports which aredivided into winter and summer games.The Olympics began in Greece more than 2,700 years ago.The games were originally part of a religious festival in honor of the Greek gods.Eventually，the games became the most important festival in all of Greece.The first recorded Olympic competition was held in 776 B.C.It was held in an outdoor stadium which was about 200 meters long and 300 meters wide.The stadium was in a valley，and about forty thousand people watched the event.The first thirteen Olympics consisted of only one race—running.Since 776 B.C.，the games had been held regularly for about 1,200 years.In 397 the Olympics were prohibited by the Roman Emperor.It was not until 1896 that the first Olympics of modern games were held in Athens.From then on the games are held every four years regularly.The Olympics have become the world’s most important athletic events and a symbol of the sporting friendship of all the people of the world.45.The first modern Olympic Games were held.A.about 115 years agoB.about 200 years agoC.about 251 years agoD.about 300 years ago46.What does this passage mainly tell us?A.The history of the Olympic Games.B.Various sporting events of the OlympicGames.C.The Standard size of an Olympic stadium.D.Several important athletic events in ancientGreece.47.Which of the following statements is false?A.The Olympic Games were once prohibited.B.The first recorded Olympic competition washeld in honor of the Roman Emperor.C.Ru nning used to be the only sporting event inthe ancient Olympic Games.D.Today the Olympic Games are the world’smost important athletic events.DWhat is America’s number one sport? Can I still say baseball? You could make that statement 30 years ago，but things have changed.Baseball of course has the richest history of all sports. But with the popularity of basketball and American football，there can now be an argument on which sport is American’s number one pastime.Basketball really took a turn in the 1980’s as Magic Johnson and Larry Bird took the NBA to another level. Of course，basketball was already popular and had seen such stars as Jerry West and Dr. J.,but the real breakthrough came in the 1980’s and it really took off with Michael Jordan into the 1990’s. Basketball has even become very global now as many NBA stars competed in the Olympics and faced no competition. Today，they had better be ready because there are so many talents in other countries and the competition will be stiff.Like basketball, American football has always been a favourite of many sports fans and its popularity has grown widely.The ratings that Super Bowl Sunday brings are amazing. They have even talked about making Super Bowl Sunday a national holiday.In the year 2050, basketball and American football will have history like baseball’s rich history and may be American national sports. They have been trying for years, but it is not going to happen.So what is America’s number one sport? To me baseball will always be America’s pastime—rich in history and many memories for folks of all ages. If you have any comments on this subject,do not hesitate to give your opinions.48.This passage mainly talks about________.A.baseball and its historyB.the most popular sport in the worldC.which sport is the number one in AmericaD.whether basketball is a global sport pastime49.Which of the following words can replace theunderlined word “stiff” in Paragraph Two?A.safeB.hardC.crazyD.strong50.The author wrote the passage to_________.A.persuade people to support baseball asAmerica’s number one sportB.introduce the history of different sports inAmericapare different kinds of sports that arepopular among American peopleD.express his idea that baseball is America’snumber one sportⅣ.语法填空(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分)T here was once a lonely girl who longed so much for love.One day while she was walking in the woods she found two starving birds. __51__She cared them with love and the birds grew strong.Every morning they greeted her witha wonderful song.The girl felt the great love from the birds.__52__The larger and stronger of the two birds flew from the cage.The girl was so frightened that he would fly away.As he flew close,she grasped him wildly.Her heart felt glad at her success in capturing him. __53__She opened her hand and stared in horror at the dead bird.Her desperate love had killed him.She noticed the other bird moving back and forth on the edge of the cage.She could feel his great need for freedom.He needed to fly into the clear,blue sky. __54__The bird circled once,twice,three times.The girl watched delightedly at the bird s enjoyment. __55__She wanted the bird to be happy.Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder.It sang the sweetest song that she had ever heard.The fastest way to lose love is to hold on it too tight,while the best way to keep love is to give it wings!A.She gave them some delicious food and left.B.Suddenly she felt the bird go softly.C.Her heart was no longer concerned with herloss.D.One day she left with the two birds at homealone.E.She took them home and put them in a smallcage.F.One day the girl left the door of the cage open.G.She lifted him from the cage and threw himsoftly into the air.Ⅴ.书面表达（满分30分）最近你们学校将开展“创建文明班级（civilized classes），共建和谐校园（harmonious campus）”活动。

Three years ago, few people would go swimming in the icy waters. But now there is a Winter-swimming Enthusiasts’ Club（冬泳爱好者协会）and it has more than 2,000 members. The oldest is 84 years old and the youngest is only 7. The members are from all walks of life. They may be workers, peasants, soldiers, teachers, students…Though it is now the coldest part of the season and the water t emperature in the city’s lakes is around 0℃, many winter-swimmers still swim in the icy waters, even when it is snowing. They enjoy themselves in the lake, while the people by the side of the lake are wearing heavy clothes.Why are so many people interested in winter-swimming? Because winter-swimming can be good for one’s health.Bei Sha is a good example. He is 69, and he once suffered from heart trouble for 26 years. After ten years of winter-swimming he is now in good health. Scientists are now studying the effects of winter-swimming on health.31.

What’s the best title for this passage?A. People in Beijing Like Swimming in WinterB. Winter-swimming—A Craze（狂热）in BeijingC. People Benefit from Winter-swimmingD. Winter-swimmers Are Brave MenBRecently Dr. Cleiman has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labour through your work, you may say that you are “hot”. That is true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak (top).For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so.Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what this energy cycle means and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habits can help Dr. Cleiman believe.If your energy cycle is low in the morning but you have an important job early in the day, rise before your usual hour, and then you will work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a lazy yawn(呵欠) and stretch (伸腰). Sit on the edge of bed before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome searching for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.36. Dr. Cleiman didn’t explain in the passage__________.A. how people can make their life fit their cycleB. whether everyone has a daily cycle or notC. why people have their energy cycle of body at different timesD. what will happen in the family if the couple fail to realize which cycle each member has37.For what reason may husbands and wives quarrel with each other?A .Either of them gets up late in the morningB. Husbands and wives have different cycles of energy.C. Either of them wants to change the cycle of the other.D. They don’t know which cycle of the other.38.According to the passage,______.A. one should get up earlier if he wants to work better at his low point in the morningB. one can change his cycleC. whenever you feel hot, your energy cycle reaches the highestD. your cycle must be in the morning if you can get up early39.Which of the following can save your energy in the morning?A. Getting up late.B. Jumping out of bed as quickly as possible.C. Looking for clean clothes.D. Sitting for a while before getting out of bed.40.Which of the following statements is wrong?__________.A. If you know your cycle you can make good use of time.B. If you know your cycle you can change it to fit your life.C. Father and son don’t necessarily have the same cycle.D.

高中英语必修二Unit 2 The Olympic Games单元测试题试卷及答案
Unit 2 单元测试题1第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
ACompetition in the Olympics should be between athletes who use their own strength (力量) or speed. If some athletes don't follow the rules, it ruins the fun for everyone connected with the game. It also gives an extremely unfair advantage to the athlete using the drug.— Jim from Atlanta Drug use among top athletes has long been a problem. Without drug testing, the Olympics would be about who uses the most drugs, not who trains the hardest and has the most athletic skills. Also drugs hurt people and they could even kill people.— David from Houston Why should athletes be allowed to compete when it's not really them who are actually competing? It's the drugs that do all the work. Athletes who use drugs are like runners with skates. It's cheating and should not be allowed. It's unfair to other competitors who don't use drugs.—Bruce from Chicago Most sports athletes are held to a standard of being drug free. Olympians should not be held any differently. They take part in highly competitive sports for their country and win medals for it. Testing the athletes for drugs must be done in every country and every sport. No drug testing would be unfair to people who don't use drugs.— Sam from Los Angeles Although popular opinion is against athletes' using drugs, I believe they do help make the Olympic sports more wonderful. I enjoy seeing human beings achieving things that couldn't be done with normal conditioning. I enjoy seeing stronger, faster and longer performances with the help of drugs.— Jack from New York21. What does David think of drug use in the Olympics?A. It's more common in top athletes than others.B. It's a difficult problem to deal with.C. It helps improve athletes' skills.D. It's bad for athletes' health.22. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggests that _____.A. using drugs is the same as cheatingB. drugs help athletes reach greater speedsC. runners should not be allowed to use drugsD. using drugs can not test athletes' real ability23. Both Jim and Sam mentioned _____.A. the popularity of the OlympicsB. the fairness of the OlympicsC. the rules of the OlympicsD. the fun of the Olympics24. The text is mainly written to _____.A. discuss whether Olympic athletes should be tested for drugsB. explain why drugs should be avoided in the OlympicsC. warn people of the bad influences of drug useD. call people's attention to sports and drugsBIn 1996, John Jones made an unusual discovery. He had just enlarged a piece of paper money for a friend — a Confederate bank note, money issued (发行) by banks in Southern States of America during the Civil War. When he was face to face with the picture, he couldn't believe his eyes: slaves happily picking cotton in their master's fields.Jones grew up in South Carolina. He had heard painful stories of slavery from his great-grandmother. The picture on the money did not match the history of AfricanAmerican slaves that he'd heard all his life. “I had never seen that type of picture on money before,” he said.Jones wondered why slaves looked so happy. He started doing research.Searching for and finding the answers to his questions changed his life. During two years' search, Jones found more than 120 different bills. He discovered that the bills had several things in common. They showed slaves working in jobs related to farming. Many of them showed healthy and smiling slaves at work.

John Jones Changes AmericaCA team of middle schoolers from North Dakota has turned a prize-winning idea into reality with their Recycling Bin app (废物回收箱应用软件). The app encourages recycling by providing users with a searchable map of nearby recycling centers.The group of nine sixth graders from STEM Center Middle School, in West Fargo, North Dakota, came up with the idea as part of a school program for the Verizon Innovative App Challenge. The competition was designed by the Verizon Foundation to increase students' interest in science, technology, engineering, and math, or STEM. It asks students to think of an app that could solve (解决) a problem in their school. The students came up with the Recycling Bin when they saw a need for more recycling in their school for a long time. “We thought that this would really help a lot of people,” Jaden Hilkemann, 12, said.They kept their idea simple so that anyone could use it. The middle schoolers were surprised when they were among the ten national winning teams. “I didn't think our app was this good!” Joram Stith, 12, said. “We were the youngest winning group.”With the help of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Media Lab, they turned their idea into an app ready for download. “We had groups of two or three people each developing one part of the app,” Hunter Koehmstedt, 12, said. “We worked together and it was great.” Jacob Pfeifer, 12, added that they le arned a lot working together. “At first, we all didn't agree on exactly what we wanted it to do, but in the end we all came to an agreement,” he said.In June, the free Recycling Bin app became available for download. “I was very excited when it went up on the app store,” Seralyn Blake, 12, said. “A lot of my family members downloaded the app. It was pretty cool.”29. What do we know about the Verizon Innovative App Challenge?A. It was held by STEM Center Middle School.B. It is a competition for middle school students.C.

The idea for the Recycling Bin _____.A. proved to be highly usefulB. came into being quite by chanceC. came from a 12-year-old in West FargoD. resulted from the bad recycling situation in North Dakota31. What did the group of nine sixth graders think of their app?A. It was popular among middle school students.B. Its winning was beyond their expectations.C. It was the simplest of the winning apps.D. It was good enough to win.32. While turning their idea into reality, the prize-winning members _____.A. learned a lot from each otherB. could hardly reach an agreementC. had no idea how to divide the workD. downloaded an app for further researchDDuring the day, Mike Kosciuk teaches students at De La Salle Collegiate High School in Michigan.

Following a successful three-month training period in the United States, the 31-year-old will chase a third title on Sunday after her first victory in 2002 and again 12 months later.Radcliffe clocked a time 2:18:56 in her first 42.2-kilometre race three years ago.Afterwards she set a “mixed course”mark of 2:17:18 five months later in Chicago before lowering that to a time of 2:15:25 in the 2003 London event.46. Radcliffe’s failure in Athens made her ______.A. face criticism calmlyB. rest for five monthsC. love people around her moreD. develop respect for Liz47. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Radcliffe broke the world record in the New York City marathon.B. Radcliffe didn’t fully recover before the New York City marathon.C. Radcliffe won her first marathon title in the New York City marathonD. Radcliffe had a 3-month training before the New York City marathon.48. By saying “I can’t put a number on it “ , Radcliffe means she’s not sure ______.A. if she has the ability to set a new world recordB. if she can win another race though she has won many timesC. how many times a marathon runner can set the world recordD. if she has the ability to produce four or five world-class times49. According to the text, Radcliffe has won_____ London marathon title(s).A. oneB. twoC. threeD. four50. What can we learn from Radcliffe’s story?A. Practice makes perfect.B. Well begun is half doneC. A friend in need is a friend indeedD. Where there is a will, there is a way.BAthens will welcome the 2004 Olympic Games with open arms. Not only will the Games be returning to their birthplace, but they’ll also be entering a new period of Olympic history.The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has been looking for ways to make the world’s largest sporting event a bit smaller and easier for cities to host. Mexico is the only Latin Americannation to have hosted the Olympics. And the games have never been held in Africa.It costs well over$4 billion t host the Olympic Games. And this is stopping many poorer countries from trying to win the bid. Cities in Africa and Latin America, with great social and money problems, cannot even begin to make the bid.So, the IOC has suggested 117 ways to make the Games smaller and easier for cities across the world. These ideas are to be put into practice soon---maybe in time for the Beijing 2008 Olympics. The IOC wants to save up to $400 million.The suggestions include limiting the number of sports to 28 and the number of athletes to 10,500.“Imagine a bus with 28 seats and some sports need to get off to give their places to other sports,”said an IOC official. Sports that might not appear in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games included baseball, softball and the modern pentathlon(五项全能)(shooting, fencing, horse, jumping, swimming and running).“We think that the Olympic Games have to be made smaller, and the less costly so that they can be organized by all continents and subcontinents(次大陆),”said IOC president Jacques Rogge. “Our dream is that a continent such as Africa will be able to organize the Olympic Games.”51. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. The Olympic Games have to be made smaller and less costlyB. The Olympic Games have to increase the number of sports.C. The Olympic games have to increase the number of athletes.D. The Olympic Games have to enlarge their global attraction.52. From the passage, we can know that the Olympics have been held in four continents EXCEPT____________.A. AsiaB. AmericaC. EuropeD. Africa53. The events which are most probably limited include ______ according to the passage.A. basketball, baseball and footballB. baseball, softball and volleyballC. softball, baseball and the modern pentathlonD. softball, fencing and pentathlon54. The purpose of writing the article is to ______.A. think highly of the Athens Olympic GamesB. make many poorer countries be able to organize the Olympics.C. increase the events of the Athens Olympic GamesD. make Athens enter a new period of Olympic historyCIt seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble. That’s more or less whathappened the night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty.“I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and siren(警笛) going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway. The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.”But Hyde couldn’t go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene.Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination(目的地). At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene. His help wasn’t needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panick about.“Just about that time,”Hyde says, “I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue smoke and oil going everywhere. He’s blown his engine. Now he had to stop.”“After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running. He told me he didn’t have a driver’s licenseThat accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty—a thousand dollars for the new engine—not to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving.55. The meaning of “panicked” in paragraph 2 is related to _______.A. happyB. fearC. angerD. hate56. Why did the driver of the Firebird suddenly speed down the highway?A. Because he was racing with another driver on the road.B. Because he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene.C. Because he thought the police officer wanted to stop him.D. Because he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder.57. Which of the following statements is true?A. Someone else was taking care of the injured person.B. The Pontiac reached its destination at the accident scene.C. Hyde knew where he was going by following the right car.D. The policeman was running after a speeder on Highway 40.58. The driver of the Firebird _________.A. took a wrong turn on the wayB. had some trouble with his carC. was stopped by the police officerD. paid for the expenses of the accident59. What is probably the best title for the article?A. Losing His Way?B. Going My Way?C. Fun All the Way?D. Help on the Way?IV. 短文改错:High school in the United States is usually dividing into 60._________ Two periods—the first two and three years is called “junior 61.__________ high school” and other is “senior high school”.

But, at nearly 500 years of age, time is catching up with the Mona Lisa.The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum(卢浮宫博物馆) where it is housed.“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago,” the museum said. Visitors have noticed changes but r epairing the world’s most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current chemical state(化学状态).Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, many attracted by the mystery o f her smile. “It is very interesting that when you’re not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University. “It’s because direct vision (视觉) is excellent at picking up detail, but less suited to looking at shadows. Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”However, the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile. Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it w as eventually sold to France’s King Francis I in 1519.In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat. He said he panned to return it to Italy. The painting was sent back to France two years later.During World War II, French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.46. What does the writer mean by “time is catching up with the Mona Lisa”?A. The painting woman is not so beautiful any more.B. Ageing is something that affects us all.C. The painting needs repairing.D. At such an old age, she is no longer popular.47. What makes the repair work difficult?A. The wooden panel is thin and old.B. No one knows exactly what materials were used to create the painting and how it might respond to treatment.C. The health of the painting is suffering.D. Experts can’t agree on how to carry out repairs.48. What makes her so mysterious according to Professor Livingston?A. The materials the Italian artist used.B. The way she smiles.C. The way Da Vinci painted the smile.D. It plays a trick upon the human eyesB篇Hundreds of years ago, a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots, a brave people, love their country. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland. But there were too many of the Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.One night, the leader of the Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. “We will rest here tonight, my men,” he said, “Tomorrow we will fight one more battle①. We must win, or we will die.”They were all very tired. So they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty, but they were very tired, too, and one by one, they fell asleep.The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they went up the hill. Closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more the war would be over. Suddenly, one of them put his foot on a thistle (蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a minute they were on their feet and ready for a battle. The fighting was hard, but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved Scotland②.The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it. Few people liked it. But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.49. Hundreds of years ago, the Romans ____ .A. came from the north through England to make war on ScotlandB. came to the north Scotland from England to make war on ScotlandC. came from the north of England to fight the ScotsD. came to the north from the south of Britain to fight the Scots50.

But the Austrian art group who created the bunny were ________ to find that it is so large that the rabbit can be seen from space via the Google Earth programme.The pale-pink bunny lies flat on its back in the Italian Alps. It took more than five years to build the bunny and it is set to stay there until 2025. It is made of soft, waterproof materials and filled with straw to make it comfortable to rest on. It was placed in a country spot called Artesina near Cuneo and attracts many visitors each year.Wolfgang Gantner of the Vienna-based art group, Gelitin, said, “It’s supposed to make you feel small, like Gulliver. You walk around it and you can’t help but smile. We like to see hikers climb up the bunny’s 20 ft sides and relax on its belly. ”The group have posted the rabbit’s location on its Gelitin website along with a poetic description of the creation. It reads:Behind a hill, as if knitted（编织）by giant grandmothers, lies this vast rabbit, to make you feel as small as a daisy（雏菊）．Happy you feel as you climb up along its ears, almost falling into its cavernous mouth, to the belly top and look out over the pink woolen landscape of the rabbit’s body, ears and limbs（四肢）reaching into the distance.36. The word “________”can be placed in the blank in Paragraph 2 most properly.A. interestedB. amazedC. happyD. anxious37. The giant pink rabbit has been created ________.A. to greet the year 2025B. so it can be seen from spaceC. to show people’s love of climbingD. as a tourist attraction38. What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph4 refer to?A. The art group.B. Gulliver.C. The bunny.D. The belly.39. What do we know about the rabbit from the description on the Gelitin website?a. It is behind a hill.b. It makes visitors feel very small.c. Its belly may be the highest point of the body.d. Its ears and limbs can be taken from its body. A. a, b, c B. a, b, dC. a, c, dD. b, c, d40. Which of the following may be a possible picture of the rabbit?BYou’ve just had an argument with someone; you have money worries, a sick child, or mice in your room. The thoughts dance through your mind and just won’t go away. How do you get rid of them?The technique for dealing with this stressful monologue（独白）, in which you are both the talker and the listener, is called“Thought-Stopping”. Yell something sharp and loud to interrupt the flow of stressful conversation. Try words like, “Stop it! Enough! Cut it out! Cool it!”Obviously, it’s a good idea to do this when you’re alone; otherwise you may alarm your family or co-workers! Try it for a few days and then gradually lower the messages until they’re silent.Thought-stopping, however, is only half the story. The second part of the exercise is to use some form of mind distraction. You purposely start thinking about something else—pleasant activities for the weekend, who to invite for lunch, or gift ideas for an upcoming birthday. Or you might think about your next vacation or the trip you took last summer. One of my favorite images is lying on the beach at Paradise lsland in the Bahamas, seeing very clearly in my mind the white sand, the blue water, the bright sunshine and palm trees waving gently in the breeze.Another way to keep unwanted thoughts from happening during the day is to use some form of “physical diversion. Pick up the phone and call a friend; take up a magazine; turn on the radio or TV; have something to eat; do a crossword puzzle or focus your mind on something exciting and challenging like sports activities.The amazing thing about thought-stopping and thought substitution（代替）is that, simple as they are，they’re very effective. Patients have left me voice mail messages over the years in which they’ve added at the end，“And by the way, thought-stopping really works!”So you see, we can’t stop thoughts from appearing in our heads, but we can change the way we feel by changing the way we think.41. The author of this text is most probably ________.A. a psychologistB. a nurse disturbed by his/her patientsC. a patient suffering from mental illnessD. a teacher majoring in psychology42. The underlined word“diversion”in Paragraph 4 probably means something that ________.A. attracts your attentionB. raises your interestC. changes your focusD. makes you do more exercise43. Physical diversion is suggested as a form of ________.A. thought-stoppingB. thought substitutionC. mind distractionD. stressful monologue44. The last sentence of the text suggests that ________.A. thinking goes after feelingsB. thoughts appear easily into one’s mindC. feelings are much more importantD. people can control their thinking45. How many methods are mentioned to get rid of unwanted thoughts in the passage?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.CMegan was a very important person to me. She was my role model. She was the strongest person I knew. Though she developed cancer in the seventh grade, she never complained about it; instead she often cheered up the other children in the hospital.When the cancer spread to Megan’s hip, shoulders, and lungs, she knew she would be in heaven soon. Megan spent her last days with her family at home, shopping on the Internet, reading Harry Potter books, eating Cookie Crisp, and watching movies. She died peacefully in her living room holding her brother’s hand on July 11, 2007.I spent the rest of the summer alone and felt depressed, and then it was time for the new school year. I decided that I didn’t want to sit around and cry any longer. I was ready to make a difference. I thought about Megan and it hit me that I’d start a n organization to help kids in the hospital who were sick as she had been. I told my friends about it. We decided to weave friendship bracelets（手镯）from string and deliver them to the hospital.Two months later, when we had made 100 friendship bracelets, I started making calls. The hospital Megan was in said they would love to have us, and we arranged to go on Halloween. That day when we arrived at the hospital, we went room to room on the pediatric floor to deliver our bracelets, and watch the children’s f aces light up. At the end of the hour, we were empty-handed but felt wonderful.We asked to return on Thanksgiving, and the organization took off from there. We named our organization Lovelets: Megan’s Bracelets Of Hope. We now use donated money to buy small gifts like pillows, animal toys, books, art projects, and other items for kids with cancer. I know Megan is smiling from heaven and giving us a thumbs-up. We love keeping Megan’s spirit alive and making sick children feel better.46. What was Megan’s reaction to her getting cancer?A. She complained about it sometimes.B. She cared more about other patients thanherself.C. She focused on the need of herself.D. She tried exciting and adventurous things.47. The underlined word“it”in Para. 3 refers to________.A. the author’s depressionB. the author’s opinion on MeganC. the idea of starting an organizationD. the idea of delivering bracelets48. What can we know about the visit to the hospital on Halloween?A. Magan’s friends taught children there to makefriendship bracelets.B. Both the children and Megan’s friends werepleased with this visit.C. The visit is helped by Lovelets: Megan’s BraceletsOf Hope.D. After the visit, the hospital received manydonated gifts.49. Which of the following words can best describeMegan?A. Sensitive and curious.B. Strong and kind.C. Friendly and creative.D. Independent and modest.50. What’s the best title for the text?A. For MeganB. Against CancerC. At HospitalD. With ChildrenDFew laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine dayssince the federal cigarette tax more than doubled—to ＄1. 01 per pack—smokers have jammed telephone “quit lines”across the country seeking to kick the habit.This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost＄10. 06 at one drugstore Wednesday. In Charleston, S.C., where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation, the price was＄4. 78.The influence is obvious.In New York, high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys—13. 8%, far below the national average. By comparison, 26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky. Other low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records.Hal Rogers, Representative from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes, argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans “who choose to smoke”.That’s true. But there is more reason in keeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the first place. As for today’s adults, if the new tax drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.51. The text is mainly about ________.A. the price of cigarettesB. the rate of teen smokingC. the effect of tobacco tax increaseD. the differences in tobacco tax rate52. What does the author think is a surprise?A. Teen smokers are price sensitive.B. Some states still keep the tobacco tax low.C. Tobacco taxes improve public health.D. Tobacco industry fiercely fights the tax rise. 53. The underlined word“deter”in Paragraph 3 mostprobably means ________.A. discourageB. removeC. benefitD. free54. Rogers’ attitude towards the low-income smokersmight be that of ________.A. toleranceB. unconcernC. doubtD. sympathy55. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The new tax will be beneficial in the long run.B. Low-income Americans are more likely to fall ill.C. Future generations will be hooked on smoking.D.

In some types of exercise —running, 34, others encourage drinking a cup or two of water with the workout.Don’t drink any more, experts say —too much fluid makes 35 and exercise uncomfortable. In 36, continuous hot-weather exercise, a(n) 37 can sweat and breathe away 1.8 kilograms of 38 an hour.Drinking water does two things: restores some weight and allows you to 39 sweating so the skin can be kept 40.

Every hundred or more countries send their best sportsmen to compete for the highest honors in sport. As many as 6,000 people take part in over 20 sports．For the winners，there are gold medals and glory. But there is honor ,too，for al1 who compete，win or lose．That is in the spirit of the Olympics-to take part is what matters．The Olympic Games a1ways start in a bright color and action．The teams of all the nations parade in the opening ceremony and march round the track . The custom is for the Greek team to march in first. For it was in Greece that the Olympics began. The team of the country where the Games are being held-the host country-marches in last.The runner with the Olympic torch（火炬）then enters the stadium and lights the flame. A sportsman from the host country takes the Olympic oath(宣誓)on behalf of all the competitors. The judges and officials also take an oath. After the sportsmen march out of the stadium,the host country puts on a wonderful display.The competitions begin the next day. There are usually more than twenty sports in the Games. The rule is that there must be at least fifteen. The main events are in track and field, but it is a few days before these sports start. Each day the competitors take part in a different sport-riding,shooting,swimming,and cross-country running.Points are gained for each event.Medals are awarded for the individual winners and for national teams.More and more women are taking part in the games．They first competed in 1900, in tennis and go1f，which are no longer held in the Olympics. Women's swimming events were introduced in 1912，But it was not until 1928 that there were any track and field events for they compete in all but half a dozen of the sports．In horse riding, shooting，and boat racing, they may compete in the same events as the men．41. Why is there honor for the losers as well as for the winners?A. Because what really matters is to take part in the Olympic Games.B. Because failure is the mother of success．C. Because losers need encouragement.D. Because losers and winner should be equally treated.42. Which of the following is a long-established practice in the opening ceremony?A. Runners enter the stadium with torches．B. Each team puts on a wonderfu1 display．C. Sportsmen and sportswomen wear magnificent clothes.D. The Greek team marches in first．43.

One day they decided to play joke on their professor.At one of their medical lectures there was always a skeleton（骨骼）in the room so that the professor could show the students different bones in the human body.That afternoon, Carol told George to put a cigarette in the mouth of the skeleton that was to be used to the next lecture.When the professor came in, he began talking and then noticed the cigarette.

A(2020·广东惠州高三调研)TOKYO, June 8 (Xinhua) — The Beijing Organizing Committee of the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games held a promotion event in the Japanese capital, Tokyo on Saturday to introduce the latest developements in preparation for the Beijing Winter Olympics.The promotion event, which used an exhibition wall and the “Charming Beijing” photo exhibition to showcase the preparations of Beijing 2022, was part of “Beijing Week”，a series of activities to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the establishment of sistercity relations between Beijing and Tokyo.On the exhibition wall with an area of 33 square meters, Beijing 2022 organizers showcased five aspects including the Beijing Winter Olympics vision, Beijing's winter sports tradition, emblems(徽章) of Beijing 2022, competition planning and the National Speed Skating Oval.At the same time, old photos of the Chinese and Japanese ice hockey teams echoed the 40th anniversary of the establishment of sistercity relations between the two cities and the theme of the Beijing Winter Olympics.The promotion videos of the Beijing 2022 emblems, as well as other related video clips, drew great interest of the audience.The “Charming Beijing” photo exhibition displayed some of the Winter Olympic venues, showing the progress of the preparations for the Beijing Winter Olympics.Meanwhile, the sand table, VR glasses and the “Beijing Winter Olympics Brochure” are also provided to let the audience visually experience the unique charm of the National Speed Skating Oval and the features of other competition venues.Chang Yu, Director General of the Media and Communications Department of the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee, introduced the progress of the preparations of Beijing2022 and the vision of cooperation between Beijing 2022 and Tokyo 2020.Chang Yu said that the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee stays committed to hosting the Games in a green, inclusive, open and clean manner, with the aim of delivering a fantastic, extraordinary and excellent Olympic event to the world.The Beijing Winter Olympics will open on February 4, 2022, which will feature 7 sports, 15 disciplines and 109 events.1．How was the promotion event carried out?A．By advertising on TV in Beijing and Tokyo.B．By sending off brochures to citizens in Tokyo.C．By providing various visual experiences.D．Through tours all around Tokyo.2．What can be inferred from Chang Y u's introduction?A．Beijing will host the Olympics earlier than Tokyo.B．Beijing is wellprepared for the 2022 event.C．Beijing 2022 proves a great success.D．Beijing 2022 will be environmentally friendly.3．Which of the following can be the title of this passage?A．The Sistercity Anniversary Between Beijing and TokyoB．Beijing 2022 Promotion Event in TokyoC．Beijing and Tokyo, Friendship ForeverD．Preparations for Beijing 2022 OlympicsBBreakdancing is set to make its debut (首次亮相) as an Olympic sport at Paris 2024, Tony Estanguet, head of the Paris 2024 organizing committee, said on February 21. Skateboarding, sport climbing and surfing which have already been added to Tokyo 2020, have been invited to return in Paris.Estanguet said the choices responded to a need to make the Olympics “more urban” and “more artistic”. “We have chosen to present the International Olympic Committee (IOC) with the four sports because they are creative, appealing to youth and completely in line with our vision. They reflect perfectly Paris 2024's identity.”Breakdancing is an example of a sport “which can be played anywhere and anytime in urban and other environments”. It appeared at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires in the form of headtohead “battles”. In competitive breakdancing, “breakers” face off in “battles” against each other, either as individuals or teams. Breakdancers use a mix of physical and artistic skills combining elements from gymnastics or acrobatics (杂技)．The IOC had announced that the number of competitors at Paris 2024 would be restricted to 10,500, which limited the opportunity to add sports. But the organizers said the inclusion would not necessitate the construction of permanent facilities and would involve just 248 competitors, including 32 breakdancers. The surfing events are likely to be held in established surf centers such as Biarritz or Lacanau in southwest France.The inclusion still needs to be rubberstamped by the IOC, which is expected to decide on which sports to add in Paris 2024 after Tokyo 2020.4．What do we know about breakdancing?A．It involves multiple skills.B．It's limited to group competition.C．It will show up in Paris 2024.D．It never appeared in the world events.5．Paris 2024 organizers have chosen the four sports because they ________.A．attract young peopleB．perfectly reflect Paris' identityC．make Paris more urban and artisticD．can be played anytime and anywhere6．What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A．10,500 competitors will compete for the new sports.B．More surf centers will be specially designed for Paris 2024.C．The IOC will reject the proposal because of inadequate facilities.D．The inclusion won't require additional competition space to be built.7．Which is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “rubberstamped”in the last paragraph?A．Approved.

D．Designed.CWomen have made great strides (进步) in sport.Up until 1960's Olympics, women weren't allowed to compete in running races over 200 metres in distance.Now, they can compete in every Olympic event.However, this_race is a marathon, and we're still not at the finish line.Charlotte Edwards, Katy McLean and Kate Richardson Walsh — these are the names of female captains who brought their English teams to victory in the highest international cups of their sports.Have you heard of them？Most likely not.Yet when I mention names like David Beckham, Andy Murray and Lewis Hamilton, undoubtedly you know these sporting legends.So why is that？Because statistically (统计学上) speaking, male sport gets over 90 percent of all sporting coverage in the media in the UK.No exposure to women's sport comes no demand and no demand comes no exposure — it's a vicious circle and seems to be a neverending nightmare for female athletes.However, new campaigns like This Girl Can, Girls Active and Girls Make Your Move shed light on women in sport, who in the past didn't always seem to have the brightest future.These campaigns encourage every woman — small, tall, strong, graceful, flexible, sporty and not sporty — to get involved in physical exercise and break stereotypes (陈规)．Norway has become somewhat of a pioneer in its efforts to show gender equality in sport.It is playing a whole new ball game with the agreement to pay male and female football players equally.Its government says one can be a footballer and a feminist (女权主义者), because equal play means equal pay.So next time someone tells you that you throw like a girl, throw it right back at them because this girl can.8．What does the underlined part “this race” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A．The distance for some competitive events.B．The equality between men and women in sport.C．The running race over two hundred metres.D．The progress made by all the Olympic athletes.9．Why don't most people hear of female athletes' names in the UK?A．Most people in the UK only care about winning athletes.B．Most people in the UK don't pay attention to sporting events.C．Female athletes are rarely reported by public media in the UK.D．Female athletes are not as excellent as male athletes in the UK.10．What is This Girl Can intended to do?A．To advise girls to follow stereotypes in sport.B．To inspire girls to become involved in sport.C．To teach girls to play football in their schools.D．To encourage girls to participate in social activities.11．What's the Norwegian government's attitude to gender equality in sport?A．Active. B．Indifferent.C．Doubtful. D．Worried.D(2018·全国卷Ⅲ·阅读理解B篇)[1]Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river．People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade．New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River．Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million．But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time．Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight．In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness (荒野)．But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, witha population of 30,000．[2]Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris．People went there for gold．They travelled over snowcovered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers．The path to Dawsonwas covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning．An avalanche (雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people．For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip．Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich．About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives．[3]But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable．Necessities like food and wood were very expensive．But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found．The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come．Today, people still come and go — to see where the Canadian gold rush happened．Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City — its present population is 762．12．What attracted the early settlers to New York City?A．Its business culture．B．Its small population．C．Its geographical position．D．Its favourable climate．13．What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson?A．Twothirds of them stayed there．B．One out of five people got rich．C．Almost everyone gave up．D．Half of them died．14．What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson?A．They found the city too crowded．B．They wanted to try their luck elsewhere．C．There were unable to stand the winter．D．They were short of food．15．What is the text mainly about?A．The rise and fall of a city．B．The gold rush in Canada．C．Journeys into the wilderness．D．Tourism in Dawson．第二节：.阅读七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）Much of the work in today's world is accomplished (完成) in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. __16__ Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent?__17__ They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the team's performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn't evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the team's performance.To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate (协调) their actions. __18__ In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take ashot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team's performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, “There is no I in TEAM.” __19__Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tugofwar (拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force.__20__ An Ateam may require a balance — not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.A．It's not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.B．Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent.C．The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers' attention.D．Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.E．Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.F．Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.G．This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.第二部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）Several years ago, my father took us to watch a World Series game.The Yankees were competing against the Dodgers.I did not get to see Sandy, my favorite baseball player in the Dodgers, pitch (投掷), but I wasn't __21__.The Dodgers won 41, giving them a 20 Series advantage.__22__，the excitement of being at the game and seeing my team __23__ was soon eclipsed (使黯然失色)．As my mother, father, younger brother and I __24__ the stadium, we passed an open garage that led back into Yankee Stadium.I looked in and __25__ a bus.I stopped as my family __26__.When the garage door started going down __27__，I hit the ground, a notebook and a pen in hand, and rolled inside along with a few other kids.As a stadium door opened, several __28__ came in the garage.They __29__ my notebook.I could feel my heart beat harder with each autograph.But where was Sandy?Finally, Sandy came in, __30__ he boarded the bus before I could get to him.So I climbed up the bus stairs and asked a player sitting in the front to pass my __31__ back to Sandy.It came back with his __32__.To my parents' great __33__，I was soon escorted (护送) out of the garage.I was floating in the air.The feeling of __34__ lasted for days.With each new World Series season, I wonder what that day and those __35__ moments would have felt like if I hadn't been in it for __36__，but for the money that a sports star's signature might ter, my mom framed (镶框) the front and back covers together.It __37__in my bedroom for decades.I am so __38__ for that day, and for not __39__ that an autograph could be worth anything more than a wonderful moment to be __40__ for a lifetime.21．A.interested B．surprisedC．disappointed D．satisfied22．A.Otherwise B．MeanwhileC．However D．Therefore23．A.attempt B．winC．struggle D．explore24．A.entered B．leftC．returned to D．got around25．A.stopped B．caughtC．missed D．spotted26．plained B．talkedC．walked on D．set off27．A.suddenly B．eventuallyC．repeatedly D．Slowly28．A.players B．parentsC．kids D．drivers29．A.noticed B．signedC．ignored D．Selected30．A.so B．butC．for D．as31．A.notebook B．ticket。
