There was happiness,boasting, celebration, pizza. In short, it was a typically good youth hockey season. He improved as a player, but did not much change as a person.However, what happened the next year added its story to the legends of sporting incompetence. Not merely weak but prettily bad, this team lost 40 of their first 50 games, most of the defeats coming in the course of two losing streaks. For a time, I worried that these streaks would kill my child’s love of the game.But that’s not what happened. As bad as it got, the losing was clarifying. It weeded out the kids who were in it less for the game than the glory, leaving just the die-hards behind. What started as a list of 17 of the team was cut down to 12. It was especially instructive for the kids. It taught him a great truth of the world: For everyone good, there is someone better.What’s more, the kids were learning the game in a way that only losing can teach. Each player got to play everywhere, to learn and appreciate the role of every position on the ice. They kept an eye on their opponents too, studying and incorporating the tricks of success. In an effort to break the streak, they went back to basics, accepted the wisdom of the hockey ancients: If playing like a team, they can defeat a collection of all-stars; If doing small and unappreciated tasks well, they can get the goal.This new team had character and could never be counted out, no matter the score. They had learned the most important lesson: You can lose without being beaten. They squeaked into the state tournament, then made it all the way to the final, where the winner was decided in overtime. When they lost that game and went into the handshake line, it was not as runners-up but as a team that had been made into winners in the only way that will stick — by losing.1．What does the author think about the son’s team in the third season in 2019?A．The team had a bad performance.B．The team didn’t live up to the author’s expectations.C．The team played typically well and won all the games.D．The team didn’t have the spirit of facing failure.2．What does the underlined word “clarify” refer to?A．The losing made the kids better understand hockey.B．The losing helped the kids learn a great truth of the world.C．The losing separated true player from those playing for glory.D．The losing boosted the kids’ teamwork.3．According to the author, what have the son’s team learned?A．For everything big, there is something bigger.B．Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.C．God helps those who help themselves.D．The hardest battle you’re going to fight is the battle to be just you.4．What is the best title for the passage?A．How Kids Can Deal With Losing B．What Kids Can Learn From LosingC．Why Kids Can Benefit From Losing D．How Kids Can Get Over From LosingBA famous springboard driver was defeated by his competitor in the finals of a world championship, offering congratulations to the winner and waving a tearful goodbye to the audience.It is common in the athletic world. Sportsmen spend the best part of their lives on hard training and competitions. When it becomes evident that they are on the decline they still make great efforts to give their best so as to bring a satisfactory end to their career.Chances to compete for the championship are few and far between. Life is short. Still shorter is the time for an athlete trying to win games. An athletic contestant really feels that there are so few opportunities and time flies. He treasures every minute, makes full use of it and tries to grasp any chance coming his way. He gets as much as he gives, winning honors not only for himself but also for his country.To participate and to win——that is the Olympic spirit. It finds expression in the weak daring to challenge the strong, and the strong searching forever better performance. Ever better—the ideal always makes a sportsman forward. He will do everything he can for it, never relax, never give up. It is said that none of the competitors can avoid being defeated—even the best is bound to be defeated by someone still stronger. This is the rule of sports—thousands of losers set off one winner who in turn will eventually be replaced by someone on the honor list. However, he is always trying to do the best he can. When the time comes and he knows he can’t, he will step down happily to give place to the younger winner, aware contentedly of the fact that he has done his best for the “ever better” records of the Olympic Games. He will say proudly that he has not lived his youth in vain.5．What is the function of the first paragraph?A．To explain a phenomenon.B．To describe a competition.C．To lead in the topic of this passage.D．To express worries about sportsmen.6．According to the passage, what kind of ideal pushes an athlete forward?A．He wants to win people’s respect.B．He wants to win honor for his nation.C．He wants to make greater achievements than ever.D．He wants to earn more and more money and fame.7．What can be learnt from the rule of sports?A．Whatever difficulties you have met, never give up.B．Even the strongest athlete will be defeated one day.C．You can’t live in the sports field without any effort or progress.D．You are the winner if you are brave enough to challenge the strong.8．What is the passage mainly about?A．Sportsmen’s spirit.B．Sportsmen’s life.C．Sportsmen’s honor.D．Sportsmen’s pride.三、话题七选五AAlthough most games have winners and losers, the goal of sports is not to win every game. The real goals include getting exercises, having fun, and learning important social skills, like sportsmanship.Good sportsmanship is all about respect. Good sports respect the other players on their team. They respect the players on opposing teams. They respect coaches and they also respect the referees (裁判) or other officials involved in their games. 9 They shout at their teammates and they talk back to coaches or referees.Kids usually learn sportsmanship — good and bad — from the adults in their lives. 10 If parents and coaches show disrespect to other fans, referees, or each other, kids will likely act the same way on the field.11 some of them are very basic and easy to do, like shaking hands with other players before a game. Other examples may take a little more courage, such as acknowledging a great play made by the opposing team.Learning good sportsmanship is important because it helps you develop an attitude of graciousness (礼貌) and respect that will carry over into all the other areas of your life! 12 Being a good sportsman in the classroom will eventually lead to being a good sportsman in the workplace.So be a good sportsman in whatever you do! 13 When others see you acting in a way that makes it clear that winning isn’t the most important thing, you can move on to focusing on the important things, like having fun, getting exercise, and improving your skills.A．If you’re a good sportsman on the field, you’ll also likely be a good sportsman in the classroom.B．Starting as a good sportsman earlier will help you be a good sport as you get old.C．we can be good sports by encouraging others but not laughing at them.D．Players’ parents and coaches set examples that kids tend to follow.E．The example you set can be a powerful teaching tool for others.F．On the contrary, bad sportsmanship is all about disrespect.G．Good sportsmanship can be shown in many ways.BDanielle Waterman, an English woman rugby (橄榄球) player is interviewed and talks about her experience and opinions about the sport.Having two older brothers taught me a lot about survival. 14 We’d play rugby together and if I wanted to play against my brothers, who I looked up to, I had to be good enough. It made me determined.I was lucky to have supportive parents, especially my mother, who was my role model. 15 It’s different now, with lots of amazing women in British sport as positive examples to young girls. The situation for women’s sport has improved, but there’s a long way to go. The regularity of male sport allows the public to be familiar with teams and players. 16A few years ago, I got hurt in my knee and was told I couldn’t play again. 17 That’s when I really recognized the challenges I was facing mentally, as well as coping with my physical pain. No matter how much I trained, I wouldn’t improve unless I was happier and more confident. I realized I needed to get help for my mental health. Without that support, I wouldn’t have played again.18 When I was injured, my immediate reaction was, ‘I need to keep going.’ I’ve built up strong will but it’s basically because I love what I do. When I play rugby, I work with other people, deal with failure and overcome difficulties - all these make me open-minded and determined. Rugby develops confidence in me around achieving and self-belief.A．That’s what women’s sport needs.B．Sometimes I did feel different to other girls.C．I never thought of myself as different from them.D．Playing rugby is my passion, and it enriches me.E．However, I decided to insist on and to get to the Olympics.F．As well as the physical side, the sport also leads me to a happy life.G．There weren’t many female role models in sport when I was growing up.专项训练10 体育精神四、语法填空跳水、全红婵、陈芋汐As both world and Olympic champions, Chinese diving queens Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi were, unsurprisingly, among the brightest stars on the platform at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou.

备考2023年高考英语二轮专题：阅读理解(体育)

备考2023年高考英语二轮专题：阅读理解（体育）一、阅读理解(共39题；共78分)阅读理解Cheerleading is the fastest growing women's sport, yet many Americans think it can't satisfy the standards and qualifications of a sport. In addition, they fail to distinguish between sideline cheerleaders and competitive ones. Sideline cheerleaders' main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers, which should not be considered a sport. However, it is true of competitive cheerleading.Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. Cheerleaders must learn to fall and perform many complex actions, like lifts and tosses. This is where the "fliers" are thrown in the air, held by "bases" in different positions that require strength and cooperation with other teammates. The whole routine has to be completed in less than three minutes and 15 seconds and the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area. Just like gymnasts, they are awarded points for difficulty, technique, creativity and sharpness. Cheerleading is a team sport, so without cooperation, first place is out of reach.Cheerleading is the major cause of serious sports injuries to women due to the fact that cheerleaders always perform without any equipment to protect them. While many athletes in other sports are well protected, smiling cheerleaders are tossed into the air and fall down into the arms of trusted teammates. The fliers must remain tight all the time so that their bases can catch them safely. Because cheerleading is not recognized as a sport by many schools, proper equipment isn't provided to ensure safety. Therefore, more recognition of competitive cheerleading as a sport would decrease the number of injuries.Competitive cheerleading is a physical activity governed by rules under which a winner can be declared and its primary purpose is to compare the skills of participants. Hopefully, cheerleading will become as well-known a sport as football and basketball, and even appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports.1．（2分）What do many Americans think of cheerleading?A．It is aimed at cheering the audience.B．It focuses on strength and teamwork.C．It does no good to women's health.D．It fails to meet the criteria of a sport.2．（2分）What does the author mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 2?A．Competitive cheerleading is a team sport.B．Cheerleaders must train hard to win first place.C．There are no limits to competitive cheerleading.D．Strength is essential to competitive cheerleading.3．（2分）Why is it easy for cheerleaders to get seriously injured?A．They are not skillful in performance.B．They don't wear protective equipment.C．They are exposed to some dangers.D．They always perform various techniques.4．（2分）Which of the following is the author's opinion of cheerleading?A．It consumes a lot of energy and strength.B．It will become more famous than football.C．It is likely to become well known in future.D．It should be equipped with various purposes.阅读理解Girls should take part in competitive sport to build confidence, and the leaders of a group of girls' schools will argue this week. Helen Fraser, director of the Girls' Day School Trust (GDST), will tell the group that sport can help girls deal with failure."All girls, not just the sporty ones, should take physical exercise," Ms. Fraser says. Research that girls are far less active than boys is worrying, she argues. Ms. Fraser will tell the group that she supports "sport for all". "That's why I love it when our schools have A, B, C and D teams and beyond," she says.The GDST draws on research from the Women's Sport and Fitness Foundation which suggests only a quarter of girls in England meet basic levels of activity each week. One in five girls do no activity at all, twice the proportion of boys, the research suggests.Ms. Fraser says other research suggests that more than 80% of women business leaders played sports while growing up. She uses the examples of former US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who once was a skater and tennis player, and the head of the International Monetary Fund, Christine Lagarde, who was in the French national swimming team. Ms. Fraser says Olympic medallists like Jessica Ennis and Katherine Grainger are excellent role models for young women but says women's sport needs more money and more news reports.Valerie Dunsford, head of Sheffield High School for Girls, part of GDST, said it was important to offer alarge number of sports to attract different types of girls. "Not everyone wants to be out playing the hockey." said Ms. Dunsford.5．（2分）Which of the following ideas would Ms. Fraser agree with?A．Boys are born to be sport lovers.B．Girls are less confident than boys.C．More should be done to make girls do sports.D．Those taking part in the sport are always successes.6．（2分）What's the proportion of boys who never take exercise?A．1/10.B．1/5.C．1/4D．2/5.7．（2分）Ms. Fraser mentions those famous women to show__________.A．hard work will pay offB．it's not easy to be greatC．sport can help girls to succeedD．it's necessary to balance work and sport8．（2分）What's the purpose of the text?A．To explain the key to success.B．To show the importance of sport.C．To introduce more sports to girls.D．To encourage more girls to do sports.阅读理解I recall when I was a young girl back in Canada, I was sitting and watching a baseball game on TV with my father and we started to debate the importance of sports. Different from my father, I argued with all the overconfidence of a teenager that sports is more than just a hobby to keep us physically healthy and went as far as claiming that "There would be more wars if we didn't have sports!"As an adult, my teenage tendencies of exaggeration (夸张)may have faded but I still firmly believe that sports is more than just a hobby for both participants and audience. The challenging times we are all living through right now with coronavirus is proof to this. The effect of cancelling all sports from professional leagues right down to amateur budding athletic programs, can be felt by millions of people worldwide. To many the social emotional impact is stronger than the physical. The loss of the sense of community, of belonging, and of an extended family is real for many girls, boys, men and women everywhere. Others arefeeling physical challenges as well as they are struggling to stay active during these times.But the human race is incredible and adaptable in tough situations, and sports once again is playing a role. Sports teams are staying in touch online and are a source of much needed support, love and laughter in these times. So many professional athletes are playing vital roles through this crisis by sharing their messages of support and at times, making valuable monetary donations to the cause. Even in areas of isolation, people are coming out on their balconies and leading their neighbours through a workout programme to help them stay active. Others are turning to online workout programmes to follow. Once again, sports is finding its way.So, in challenging times such as now, people are still empowered to continue their sports journey and stay strong and healthy.9．（2分）What may the author's father agree about sports?A．It is a personal hobby.B．It boosts confidence.C．It affects social relations.D．It helps avoid wars.10．（2分）How does life without sports affect people?A．They lack family connection.B．They have lost their hobbies.C．They feel bored more than lonely.D．They suffer both in body and mind.11．（2分）How do isolated people respond to the tough situations?A．Struggle to be athletes.B．Try to stay physically active.C．Make donations to good causes.D．Design new sports programmes.12．（2分）What is the best title?A．Sports reduces risks in our livesB．Sports continues to offer strengthC．Sports makes the impossible possibleD．Sports has new functions in the pandemic阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your choice of sport might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep itscourses（球场）in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in so me local areas.There are many environment friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be "green gyms". They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it's free.13．（2分）What do we know about golf from the passage?A．It is popular in Portugal and Spain.B．It causes water shortages around the world.C．It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes.D．It needs water and electricity to keep its courses green.14．（2分）The author uses power walking as an example mainly because _______.A．it is an outdoor sport B．it improves our healthC．it uses fewer resources D．it is recommended by experts15．（2分）Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of?A．Cycling around a lake.B．Motor racing in the desert.C．Playing basketball in a club.D．Swimming in a sports center.16．（2分）The author writes the passage to _______.A．show us the function of major sportsB．encourage us to go in for green sportsC．discuss the major influence of popular sportsD．introduce different types of environment friendly sports阅读理解It's summertime. That means long hot days, no school— and summer camps. Lots of kids spend at leastsome of the summer at camps. Some kids spend the whole year playing one sport. And what do they do during the summer? They go to a camp and keep playing that sport. So what's wrong with that?A study published in the journal Sports Health found that "for most sports, there is no evidence that intense (集中的) training and playing one sport before 13 or 14 are necessary to achieve elite (精英的)status." How big is the risk of injury if you specialize in one sport? A Loyola University Chicago study of 1, 200 youth athletes found that kids who specialized in one sport were 70 percent to 93 percent more likely to be injured than multi-sport athletes. That's a lot. Kids who specialize in one sport also get burned out. An Ohio State University study found that kids who played a single sport were more likely to quit their sport and be physically inactive as adults.But don't you have to specialize in one sport when you're a kid to have a chance to play in college or be a professional? No! Sorry, but I have to talk about another study. This one was a survey of college athletes by the American Society of Sports Medicine. The study found that 88 percent of college athletes played more than one sport when they were kids.Look at this year's National Football League(NFL) draft, 26 of the 31 first- round picks, including Jared Goff, the player drafted ahead of all the others, had been multi-sport athletes in high school, according to Tracking Football. It wasn't just the first round: 224 of the 256 draft picks had played more than one sport in high school. More than a third of the drafted players were three-sport athletes.So if you are a year-round baseball kid, try soccer this summer. It will get you into great shape and help you move your feet in the field. Or if you're a soccer kid, try tennis or rock climbing. Have some fun, and try something new. It's summertime.17．（2分）What's the purpose of the author writing the text?A．To invite more kids to play sports.B．To inspire kids to play sports for fun.C．To encourage kids to try more types of sports.D．To give kids advice on becoming professional athletes.18．（2分）What has the study in Sports Health found?A．Playing one sport is suitable for adults.B．Too much training doesn't lift sport spirits.C．70%-93% kids get injuries from playing sports.D．Kids' sport specialization doesn't promise future success.19．（2分）What can we learn about NFL drafted players?A．Most of them were multi-sport players.B．They are college students.C．They are professional athletes.D．Most of them were summer-camping lovers.20．（2分）Which of the following shows the structure of the text? (P—paragraph )A．B．C．D．阅读理解The health benefits of staying active are already well-known. It can help you manage weight, keep blood sugar levels down and reduce risk factors for heart disease.Now, a new study suggests that regularly playing sports, especially badminton or tennis, is not only healthy but also reduces your risk of death, at any age, by approximately 50%. This is a big scale population study to explore the health benefits of sports in terms of death rate. The study evaluated responses from 80, 306 adults aged 30 and above in England and Scotland, who were surveyed about their health, lifestyle and exercise patterns.After adjusting factors such as age, sex, weight, smoking habits, alcohol use, education and other forms of exercise besides the named sports, the researchers compared the risk of death among people who took part in a sport to those who didn't. The percentage of reduced risk of death was found to be: 47% for racket（球拍）sports, 28% for swimming and 15% for cycling.In addition to this, the study didn't find any significant reduction in the risk for sports like running and football. The findings also exposed that over 44% of the participants met the guidelines for the recommended exercise levels to stay fit and healthy, which amounts to 150 minutes of moderate(适度的) physical activity in a week.Does this mean you stop running or playing football and switch to tennis instead? Every kind of sport and physical activity has different physical, social and mental benefits attached to it. The apparent lack ofbenefits of running and football could result from several variables that were not taken into account.Being active helps you feel happier and live longer. So, the most important step is to take part in any kind of sport that you are likely to enjoy and follow in the long term.21．（2分）How is the study conducted?A．By doing comparative experiments.B．By analyzing previous data.C．By evaluating survey information.D．By tracking participants for a long time.22．（2分）What does the underlined part "the named sports" refer to?A．Ball sports.B．Racket sports.C．Individual sports.D．Traditional sports.23．（2分）What can we infer from paragraph 5?A．Few people will play football.B．Tennis will become more popular.C．The result of this study is wrong.D．The study needs to be further improved.24．（2分）What does the author advise people to do?A．Stick to any sport that you like.B．Play badminton and tennis only.C．Stop running and playing football.D．Do any sport according to guidelines.阅读理解Goa is the official holiday destination of India.

高考英语时事热点话题阅读：热点10 体育运动精神与公民健康(学生版+解析版)

高考英语时事热点话题阅读热点10 体育运动精神与公民健康一、阅读理解1In the US, many people prefer sports and sports are not just for fun. They’re almost a “religion”. Thousands of sports fans buy expensive tickets to watch their favorite teams and athletes play in person. Other fans watch the games at home, sticking to their TV sets, never missing a game. Many a wife become s a “sports widow” during her husband’s favorite season. Americans’ devotion to sports has created a new class of wealthy people: professional athletes. Sports stars often receive million dollar salaries. Some even make big money by appearing in advertisements for soft drinks, shoes and almost everything.Sports are an important part of American culture. Throughout their school life, Americans learn to play many sports. Many students try out for the school teams. Athletic events at universities attract scores of fans and benefit the whole community. Many people also enjoy noncompetitive activities, like hiking, cycling, horseback riding, camping or hunting.Many sports were imported from other countries. Europeans brought tennis, golf, bowling and boxing to America. Football and baseball came from other Old World games. Only basketball has a truly American origin. Americans export sports fever as well. Satellites broadcast games to sports fans around the globe. NBA is a good example. The names of American superstars like basketball great Michael Jordan have become household words all over the world.1.

These activities often involve sped, height, and a high level of physical effort. In the past, young athletes would play baseball. Today，they want risk and excitement--the closer to the edge, the better. They snowboard over cliffs and mountains, or bike down steep mountains.Extreme sports started as an alternative to more expe nsive sports such as golf. A city kid who couldn’t afford expensive sports equipment could get a skateboard and have fun, but now it has become a whole new area of sports, with specialized equipment and high levels of skill. There is even an Olympics for extreme sports, called the winter X-game, which includes snow. Mountain biking and ice climbing.What makes extreme sports so popular? People love the risk. City people want to be outdoors on the weekend and do something challenging. The new equipment is so much better that people can take more risks without getting hu rt. Sure there's a risk. Once you go mountain biking or snowboarding, it’s impossible to go back to bike riding or skiing. It's just too boring.Now even the older crowd is staring to join in. Every weekend, groups of friends in their early30s get together. On weekdays they work as computer programmers in the same office. On weekends they rent mountains together.Extreme sports are certainly no for everyone. Most people still prefer to play basketball or watch sports on TV. But it has been a fact that, extreme sports are gaining in popularity.Nowadays more and more young athletes are taking part in the risky activities.5. All the following sports are X-sports EXCEPTA. ice climbingB. snow boardingC. SkiingD. mountain-biking6. Which of the following is NOT the characteristic of extreme sport?A. Risky.B. Challenging.C. Exciting.D. Unskilled.7. The underlined word “alternative”in Paragraph 2 more probably means“_A. replacementB. activityC. equipmentD. competition8. Extreme sports have become so popular becauseA. people can get better equipment to make sure they will not get hurtB. people are not interested in the traditional sports any moreC. people want to do something risky after doing the same thing on weekdaysD. extreme sports are easy to learn and less expensive.9. From the passage, we can learn thatA. all young people like extreme sportsB. playing basketball is still a popular gameC. people prefer extreme sports to traditional sportsD. bike riding and skiing are boring sports.3A number of studies show that sports and other physical activities can contribute to the development of self-esteem (a feeling of pride in oneself). For example, Canadian scientists found that sixth-grade students who were more physically active had considerably higher levels of self-esteem. A study in Switzerland found that teenagers who took part in sports clubs were healthier, including being better socially adjusted, feeling less anxious, and generally being happier about their lives. Similar findings were reported in a study of Latino students, where participation in school sport was found to be greatly associated with self-esteem.There seems little doubt that part of the potency (潜能) of sports lies in their social setting. There are a lot of facts showing the importance of social connectedness (关联性) for healthy child and teenager development, and sports offer a popular and engaging setting for social interactions. Involvement in team sports has been positivelyassociated with social acceptance and a sense of belonging, especially where such involvement is characterized by positive coaching, progressive skill development, and peer support.But, the social setting of sports can exclude as well as include. There is now evidence that boy s’ and girls’ experiences of sports can be very different, and this can affect the contribution they can make to the self-esteem of players. Peer acceptance seems to be an important factor in determining the relationship between sport participation and self-esteem, and girls can be particularly sensitive to negative judgments. And studies have found that many ‘girly’ boys and girls benefit most from non-competitive physical activities.So, a note of caution ought to be sounded in case sports are considered to be a cure. Much of the literature on the most positive psychological (心理的) outcomes associated with childhood and youth sports stress the absolute importance of positive experiences. It will surprise no one that bullying, excluding or abuse experiences will harm, rather than support the development of self-esteem, and well-being in general. Sadly, it will also not be a shock to l earn that many children’s introductions to sports are far from improving the quality of life.The great developmental psychologist Jean Piaget argued that the foundations of self-esteem were laid between the ages of about 6 and 11 years of age. Importantly, this is also the time when children are most likely to be introduced to sports. We should know the importance of positive early sporting experiences for the development of both self-esteem and on-going participation in sports and other physical activities. Teachers, coaches, and parents have a responsibility to ensure that these experiences ‘catch’ as many children as possible, and for this to happen they need to remember ‘the principles of child development’: Children are not mini-adults.Problems arise when adults forget these principles, and kid themselves into thinking that they are coaching future Olympians or Super stars. Unluckily, evidence suggests that talented children are most likely to stand out when they are given time to develop, to play, and to remain children.Children are not miniature adults, and their enjoyment of sports (and their self-esteem) can suffer when adults forget this!10. Studies in Switzerland and Latino showed teenagers who often join in sports _____.A. build self-esteem earlierB. have more good experiencesC. are more sensitive to judgmentsD. are healthier both physically and mentally11. In general, the author’s attitude toward the influence of sports on teenagers i s _____.A. positiveB. criticalC. uncertainD. tolerant12. According to the author, when children take part in sports, they _____.A. will be happier about their livesB. are more likely to be attracted by competitive sportsC. should be treated by coaches and parents as super starsD. will build self-esteem if given positive comment and support13. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Children Should Take Part in SportsB. Sports Offer You a Better Teenage LifeC. Sports Experience and Building Self-EsteemD. People Should Treat Teenagers Like Miniature Adults4The latest sports craze is not even a sport. According to a recent article, “e-sports” are attracting a large number of audience.In e-sports, players and teams compete in popular video computer games such as Dota 2 and Ovenvatch. Fans fill arenas to watch the action live on huge television screens.The games have gone way past kids playing against each other while sitting on a sofa at home. The International, a major competition for players of Dota 2, awarded $24 million in prizes, with the winner taking home almost $11 million. A recent e-sports competition attracted more than 80,000 fans to the Olympic Stadium in Beijing, China.I have to admit that I am not a big fan of computer games. I know that some games can be educational, but I think too many kids spend too much time sitting in front of a screen shooting space aliens. I think it would be better if kids spent more time reading or playing real sports such as basketball, baseball and soccer.A nd please don’t tell me that competitive gaming is real sport because it requires hand-eye coordination. According to my American Heritage Dictionary, a sport is “an activity involving physical exertion and skill.” I don’t th ink anyone works up much of a sweat playing video games.Too often, regular sports send kids a kind of message. Competition starts early, when lots of kids are not ready for the ups and downs of games. Tryouts and travel teams come next, giving too many kids the message they are“not good” at sports. So lots of kids quit sports and start playing more video games.Maybe everyone in youth sports, including coaches, parents and kids, should think more about the advantages of real sports.14. What are “e-sports” according to the text?A. Sports events on television screens.B. Video computer game competitions.C. The latest sports in the Olympic Games.D. Easy sports games for kids.15. What might the author think of “e-sports”?A. They are not instructive.B. They should be banned in school.C. They need too much time and money.D. They have some negative influence on children.16. What does the underlined word “exertion” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Growth.B. Fitness.C. Effort.D. Energy.17. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To introduce a new kind of sport.B. To introduce a competition held in Beijing.C. To explain the importance of playing sports.D. To call on people to pay more attention to traditional sports.5As the parent of two teenag ers who have played multiple sports over the years, I’ve seen the good, the bad, the ugly and the absolutely cruel.However, when I think about the value of sports and why my kids continue to play sports teach kids lessons to become successful adults. Through sports, kids learn how to work in teams, have to take risks, how to challenge themselves to be better, and how to behave when they lose—and when they win.Whether kids play soccer, baseball, football, or cheer, they learn they are part of a team where one person depends on another. When my son plays baseball, he’s not the only one who needs to play well; he depends on hisdefense to make the plays in the field. When my daughter plays tennis, she depends on her partner to cut off the ball at the net and win the point, and the tennis team depends on each person in order to win the overall match. Sports also teach children to trust and respect the decisions of someone who understands how the entire team needs to work in order to succeed.Sadly, though, yout h sports have suffered from the “winning isn’t everything; it’s the only thing” attitude. They have become too much of a refection of professional sports. Winning is a happy result, but the lessons from losing are even more important. When my daughter loses tennis match, her coach reminds her that you learn more from losing than from winning. Losing makes you focus on improving your skills and your strategy. We’re going to learn from our mistakes and not repeat them.I believe that participating in youth sports is much more than building a sound body winning a scholarship to college. Sports are the best way to shape and build more self-motivated and happier children and help them become more self-motivated and happier adults.18. Wha t is the author’s attitud e to youth sports?A.

Youth Sports Build Better AdultsB. Teenagers Suffer from Youth SportsC. Losing Brings More than Winning DoesD. Teenagers Perform Better than Adults in Sports6A Chinese team claimed victory at an international e-sports（电子竞技）championship held in Paris on Sunday.Royal Never Give Up beat South Korean team Dragon X 3-1 to lift the crown at the League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational 2018. It marked the first time in 1,106 days that a South Korean team had been defeated by a team from elsewhere at a major international League of Legends tournament（锦标赛）.League of Legends is a multiplayer online battle arena video game that was launched in 2009 and rapidly builta following among members of the competitive gaming community. The tournament in Paris featured teams from13 countries and regions competing for cash and a place in the global rankings.Royal Never Give Up entered the contest fresh from their victory at the spring season of the Tencent League of Legends Pro League, the top level of China’s professional League of Legends league system.

I’m super excited for this moment.” Royal Never Give Up’s victory has boosted confidence in China’s ability to win at major international e-sports events.E-sp orts’ popularity has ballooned in recent years, with the International Olympic Committee scheduled to meet in July to further discuss the possibility of including e-sports in future Olympic Games. According to Penguin Intelligence’s 2017 China Game Industr y Report, released in June, the an nual market value of China’s e-sports sector reached 20 billion yuan ($3.13 billion) in 2016, generated by gamers’ spending, copyright distribution, merchandising and e-commerce.

A Chinese team won an international e-sports tournament.7At the end of a race，you'll often see runners reaching for bananas. Although people who only exercise at weekends might be more likely to reach for a sports drink，serious athletes know there are better choices. And a new study from Appalachian State University offers proof that bananas may be a better choice than sports drinks after exercise.Researchers analyzed the blood of 20 competitive cyclists after they were given water and bananas，water only，or a 6 percent sugar drink (a sports drink) every 15 minutes during a 47一mile bike ride. The study found that the carbohydrates(碳水化合物）in bananas work as well as sports drinks to fuel athletes and help them recover. But the researchers found an additional benefit. Bananas also provide greater anti—inflammatory which benefits than sports drinks.“Consuming bananas with water during exercise has several advantages for athletes above those linked to regular sports drinks，” Dr. David Nieman said in a statement. “Banana metabolites(代谢物)that increase in the blood have a similar effect to aspirin that inhibits (抑制）COX—2 activity. This makes bananas close to the perfect athletic food.”“Although aspirin and other anti-inflammatory drugs (AIDs) help athletes with post exercise pain，they are often discouraged because they can cause cell damage，” Nieman tells Men's Health. “For this reason，we tell athletes not to take them，”he says. “To our pleasant surprise, we found something natural in bananas is working like these painkillers but without the risks. ”Sports drinks are still a choice，but Nieman and his team believe bananas offer more.“There’s no question that sports drinks work，” he explains. “But bananas also have other nutrients—vitamin C，B6 and these unique metabolites —that you don't get with a sports drink. ” Next up, the research t eam is looking at other fruits as exercise companions. “We're starting to look at blueberries，because we think with bananas they might work even better,” Nieman says.25.

It can boost your self-esteem (自尊) and make you happier —and you don’t have to root for the winning team to gain the benefits.Being a sports fan is a “very psychologically healthy activity,” says Daniel Wann, professor at Murray State University whose research program centers on the psychology of sport fandom. Fandom connects us to other like-minded people, which satisfies our human need for belonging, he says.These relationships are significant: People who identify as sports fans have higher levels of self-esteem, lower levels of lo neliness and tend to be more satisfied with their lives compared to those who aren’t interested in sports, Wann says. Fans tend to have more access to social support, help and resources as well. Research suggests that when people have support from their communities, they have better health.Beyond bonding, fans get to enjoy the psychological benefits of winning, even if they have nothing to do with the players or games, says Stephen Reysen, associate professor at Texas A&M University-Commerce who studiesidentity and fandom.“Individuals feel that the fan interest (in this case a sport team) is a part of them,” Reysen says. “So when the team is winning, you feel like you are winning even though you are not a player.”Of course, teams sometimes lose.So, why do people continue to put their faith behind teams that tend to lose? People who feel a strong psychological connection to a team are more likely to root for a team when they’re having a losing season, Reysen says.“Sports fandom has nothing to do with th e outcome of a game,” Wann says. For example, if a pizza restaurant continually got your order wrong, you’d likely switch to a more reliable one. But because being a fan is so central to people’s identities, people are willing to accept defeat and contin ue to be loyal to a team.Being part of a fan community can also help people cope with losses. A 2019 study found that watching a football game with other fans helps to ease the negative psychological effects of losing.“For fans of the losing team, sharin g the pain may have protected them from losing self-esteem,” Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick, co-author of the study and professor of communication at The Ohio State University said ina release.29. According to the passage, why do sports fans feel happier?A. Because they could gain the benefits from the winning team.B. Because they can share pains and happiness with people who have the common interests.C. Because they could have a low level of self-esteem.D. Because most of them are optimistic.30. What is the significance of the relationships between sports fans?A. Sports fans have support from their favorite teams.B. Sports fans have higher levels of loneliness.C. Sports fans are likely more content with their lives.D. Sports fans tend to compare themse lves to those who aren’t interested in sports.31. According to the passage, if the team has a losing season, the sports fans may .A. display their identitiesB. have a boost of self-esteemC. not support the team any moreD. have a negative psychology period32. According to the passage, what can help sports fans deal with losses of their team?A. Being part of the team.B. Ordering a pizza in a different restaurant.C. Sharing the pain with family members.D. The loyalty to the team.33. What is the passage mainly about?A. Sports fans have a closer relationship with other like-mined people.B. Sports fans have higher self-esteem and are more satisfied with their lives.C. Sports fans always put their faith behind their favorite teams.D. Sports fandom has nothing to do with the outcome of a game.9Are the Olympic Games outdated? That might seem like a strange question to ask. But it’s exactly what the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is doing. At the 2012 London Olympics, IOC President Thomas Bach noticed something. “You could see that the younger generation had no interest in the Games anymore. They were not there.”In response, the IOC wants to make the Summer Olympics more youthful. But that isn’t as simple as just adding more sports. The Ol ympic program can’t continue to grow bigger: it would become too much for host cities to handle. For now, permanently adding new sports to the Olympics is out of the question.The IOC’s solution is to continue to vote on the new program’s line-up and give host cities the opinion to add extra sports. The extra events would be included in that year’s Olympics only. This policy takes effect at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. Skateboarding, sport climbing, surfing and 3x3 baseball are all making their Olympic debuts(首次露面)there.Adding new sports, though, has sparked a lot of debate. Some sports have been pushing to be included in the Olympics for years but still haven’t made it. Meanwhile, newer sports like skateboarding or surfing are already getting the opportunity.People are also wondering what makes up an Olympic sport. Paris, the future host of the 2024 Summer Olympics, has expressed interest in adding break-dancing. Some people would like to see e-sports at the Olympics. E-sports are especially important to consider because they are spreading like wildfire. President Bach stated videogames with killing are not acceptable. One of the main principles of the Olympics is to encourage peace. At the moment, the future of e-sports is still uncertain.What about the Winter Olympics? Not to worry, the IOC has already announced seven new events for the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. But the Winter Olympics situation is a little different. The Winter Olympics have less than half the sports of the Summer Olympics, so they have room to grow.34. Why does the IOC want to make the Summer Olympics more youthful?A. Because the Olympic Games are outdated.B. Because there is too much for host cities to handle.C. Because the spirit of the Olympics has got lost over time.D. Because the IOC wants to get the younger generation interested.35. Which event may first appear in the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo?A. Baseball.B. Surfing.C. Speed skating.D. Break-dancing.36. What is President Bach’s attitude to adding e-sports to the Olympic Games?A. Cautious.B. Supportive.C. Curious.D. Indifferent.37. It can be inferred from the text that ________.A. every country has the chance to add extra sportsB. newly-added sports will be in the Olympics foreverC. newer sports are more competitive than some traditional sportsD. there is greater possibility of adding more sports to the Winter Olympics10Most of the teenagers today have realized the importance of physical activity. There are dozens of far-reaching benefits that sports can bring into their lives. Aside from providing an excellent form of exercise，organized sports can teach a young person some essential life-long lessons.With an abundance of junk food at their fingertips, teenagers today often battle with eating. Playing a sport can act as great motivation for them to eat nutritious food. In order to participate fully in sports，teenagers have to have a balanced diet. Learning to eat properly and sleep correctly are important lessons that carry on to their adult lives.Most teenagers have to deal with the stresses of popularity, appearance and fitting in. Participating in sports,however, can help them develop a positive self-image. If one struggles to feel like they belong, joining a team is a great way to give him or her social interaction that will eventually lead to a group of friends.Team sports aren't just about developing skills for their games. Those who participate in team sports will learn the benefits of working hard, setting goals and following rules. When teens have a coach they respect, they can also learn to listen to the authority and work hard toward a common goal. Additionally, learning to deal with losses is as important as winning with dignity. A teen who learns that losses are a part of life will be able to face any difficult challenges waiting for him or her later in life.Thousands of studies all agree that students feel more connected with their school and are motivated to work harder in class if they participate in sports. Sports give teens the opportunity to be around competitive people and gain an appreciation for hard work. Of course, participating in sports may also teach teenagers how to balance between two equally important things—like schoolwork and sports.38. Why do teenagers today tend to fight with eating junk food?A. Because they don’t have a balanced diet.B. Because they have easy access to junk food.C. Because junk food is delicious and attractive.D. Because they are motivated to eat healthy food.39. What does the word “interaction” mean in the third paragraph?A. communicationB. participationC. competitionD. appreciation40. Which of the following is NOT the benefit of participating in the organized sports?A. Developing a positive appearance and a sense of belonging.B. Learning how to balance work against play.C. Learning to face up to the failure bravely.D. Getting more opportunities to win among the competitive people.41. What is the main idea of the article?A. Sports is of vital importance to the academic performance of teens.B. Sports can encourage students to have a nutritious diet.C. Sports can have a continuing influence on adolescents.D. More and more teenagers are participating in organized sports.二、七选五。

）MICHAEL Jordan （迈克尔. 乔丹）is best known for his "air walk" but it was Beijing students who were flying high when the American basketball legend （传奇人物） visited the capital last week.The former NBA star attended the final of the 2004 China High School BasketballLeague at Beijing Workers' Gymnasium （北京工人体育馆） on Thursday. Presenting the trophy to the winners, he gave the youngsters some simple advice: "Love the game, enjoy the game, and play the game."（Michael Jordan celebrates with the winning team from Shenyang No31 Middle School. XINHUA）Shenyang No 31 Middle School tasted victory inthe tournament （锦标赛）last year But thisyear's 62-54 victory over ShanghaiNanyang Model Middle School had an added sweetness: the players received the champion's cup from Jordan himself."I was very excited taking the trophy （奖杯）from him," said Li Yuzhang, whowon the Most Valuable Player （MVP） award. "I'm lucky to have been able to hold the cup after it was touched by Jordan."Another player said: "We have been waiting for this day for almost a month. We trained very hard because we knew we would get to celebrate our victory with Michael Jordan."With cameras flashing around them, the players couldn't hide their excitement as they stepped onto the podium （领奖台）alongside their hero. Li and team captain Feng Wenxu were also lucky enough to have Jordan sign their jerseys （运动衫）."I will keep this precious jersey for the rest of my life," said Feng.The 5,000-strong audience of young students was also stirred up （鼓动） by the appearance of one of basketball's greatest-ever players.

2020年高考英语外刊时事做阅读理解：大型体育赛事真的会促使我们做更多的运动吗？(含答案)

Do big sporting events make us do more sport?大型体育赛事真的会促使我们做更多的运动吗？I recently spent half aweekend sitting on the sofa watchingthe Davis Cup.I thought about goingfor a run,but I did not want to missthe rest of the match.Soon it wasstarting to get dark,so I did not bother.Whenever I watch tennis,I think hownice it would be to play it regularly.But I have been thinking that for almost20years without actually setting foot on a court.The evidence would suggest that I’m not the only one.When a country or city bids to host an international sporting event,it often promises that more people will take up sports as a result.London was no exception.Tessa Jowell,who helped to secure the2012Olympics for London,said they would be the first to set challenging but achievable targets as a measure of their ambition:By2012two million more people would be physically active.And60percent of young people would be doing at least five hours of sports per week.In the end it did not turn out quite like that.Just over one-third of people in Britain take part in sports once a week.A report on Olympic and Paralympic legacy has said that a big change in participation levels simply has not happened.Why isn’t there a big increase in people taking part in sports after most sporting events? Perhaps it is a mistake to assume an automatic link between watching sports and playing it.While the games are on,they actually encourage people to do just the opposite—to spend whole sunny days not out playing sports,but inside sitting on the sofa with the curtains shut to stop the sun shining on the TV screen and spoiling the view.We don’t expect half the audience of a hit musical to apply to drama school the next day,yet we seem to expect it of sporting events.We might have sat on the sofa doing an impression of Usain Bolt’s bow-and-arrow signature pose.But how many of us have been inspired by watching him sprint（短跑）100meters? The high-level performances on show only remind people that they could never match the elite athletes in their sporting achievements even if they trained full time.Maybe participation in sports is not the right legacy to expect after a major sporting event. It’s not so much that the Olympics failed to get people to participate but rather that this was never going to be the result.The Olympics can do many things,but maybe this cannot necessarily be one of them.（节选自BBC）1.What can we learn from the first paragraph?A.The author prefers playing tennis to running.B.The author watches tennis matches very rarely.C.The author hasn’t played tennis in nearly two decades.D.The author didn’t go for a run because the match lasted longer than expected.2.The underlined word“secure”in Paragraph2probably means“_________A.to fastenB.to protectC.to obtainD.to promise3.According to the article,there is no noticeable rise in sport participation after most events because.①it takes people a longer time to play sports than watch it②watching sports actually discourages people from going out③sporting events make people aware that they could never be as good as elite athletes④people are too busy to get into the habit of taking part in sportsA.①②B.②③C.③④D.①④4.According to the author,to expect more citizens to play sports after a country hosts the Olympics is.A.importantB.naturalC.harmfulD.unnecessary词汇：bother v.to make the effort to do sth.费心，麻烦evidence n.facts or signs that show clearly that sth.exists or is true.证据，证明legacy n.sth.that happens or exists as a result of things that happens at an earlier time.遗留物语法：It’s not so much that the Olympics failed to get people to participate but rather that this was never going to be the result.not so much as...as...是一个固定短语，意为“与其说是...不如说是...”。

It also led to an increase in adult muscle and brain mass. When fed “Western” style diets high in fat and sugar, the mice not only became fatter, but also grew into adults that preferred unhealthy foods.These findings have recently been published in the journal Physiology and Behavior. To obtain them, the researchers divided the young mice into four groups — those with access to exercise, those without access, those fed a standard, healthy diet and those that ate a Western diet.Mice started on their diets immediately after weaning (断奶), and continued on them for three weeks, until they reached physical maturity. After an additional eight weeks of “washout”， during which all mice were housed without motion and on the healthy diet, the researchers did behavioral analysis and various measurements.One of those they measured, leptin, is produced by fat cells. It helps control body weight primarily by lowering the sensation of hunger and also by increasing energy consumption. Earlylife exercise increased adult leptin levels as well as fat mass in adult mice, regardless of the diet they ate.Previously, the research team found that eating too much fat and sugar as a child can change the gut microbiota (肠道菌群) for life, even if they later eat more healthily. Going forward, the team plans to investigate whether fat or sugar is more responsible for the negative effects they measured in Westerndietfed mice.Together, both studies offer critical opportunities for health interventionsin childhood habits. The findings may be relevant for understanding the potential effects of activity reductions and dietary changes associated with fatness.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

In the mid-1990s, Tom Bissell taught English as a volunteer in Uzbekistan. He left after seven months, physically broken and having lost his mind. A few years later, still attracted to the country, he returned to Uzbekistan to write an article about the disappearance of the Aral Sea.His visit, however, ended up involving a lot more than that. Hence this book, Chasing the Sea: Lost Among the Ghosts of Empire in Central Asia, which talks about a road trip from Tashkent to Karakalpakstan, where millions of lives have been destroyed by the slow drying up of the sea. It is the story of an American travelling to a strange land, and of the people he meets on his way: Rustam, his translator, a lovely 24-year-old who picked up his colorful English in California, Oleg and Natasha, his hosts in Tashkent, and a string of foreign aid workers.This is a quick look at life in Uzbekistan, made of friendliness and warmth, but also its darker side of society. In Samarkand, Mr Bissell admires the architectural wonders, while on his way to Bukhara he gets a taste of police methods when suspected of drug dealing. In Ferghana, he attends a mountain funeral(葬礼)followed by a strange drinking party. And in Karakalpakstan, he is saddened by the dust storms, diseases and fishing boats stuck miles from the sea.Mr Bissell skillfully organizes historical insights and cultural references, making his tale a well-rounded picture of Uzbekistan, seen from Western eyes. His judgment and references are decidedly American, as well as his delicate stomach. As the author explains, this is neither a travel nor a history book, or even a piece of reportage. Whatever it is, the result is a fine and vivid description of the purest of Central Asian traditions.8．What made Mr Bissell return to Uzbekistan?A．His friends' invitation.B．His interest in the country.C．His love for teaching.D．His desire to regain health.9．What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?A．Developing a serious mental disease.B．Taking a guided tour in Central Asia.C．Working as a volunteer in Uzbekistan.D．Writing an article about the Aral Sea.10．Which of the following best describes Mr Bissell's road trip in Uzbekistan?A．Romantic.B．Eventful.C．Pleasant.D．Dangerous.11．What is the purpose of this text?A．To introduce a book.B．To explain a cultural phenomenon.C．To remember a writer.D．To recommend a travel destination.【答案】8．B9．D10．B11．A【解析】本文是记叙文。
