湖南省雅礼中学2019-2020学年高一上学期第三次月考英语试题(含答案解析)高考真题高考模拟高中联考期中试卷期末考试月考试卷学业水平同步练习湖南省雅礼中学2019-2020学年高一上学期第三次月考英语试题(含答案解析)1 Walking is good for you.It’s good for your heart, for your lungs, for the muscle and bone growth of your children.Strong scientific evidence now supports the many benefits to health of regular walking.Walking is connected with reduced death rates for both older and younger adults.In other words, walkers live longer!In particular, walking has a great effect on cardiovascular disease(心血管病).Fit and active people have around half the risk of cardiovascular disease compared to unfit inactive people.Even 10-minute walks can increase fitness.One study at Loughbrough University found that women walking continuously for 30 minutes 5 days a week had almost the same increases in fitness as women who divide their 30 minutes into three 10-minute walks. The majority of studies of young people indicate falling participation in physical activity.Only half of 11-36-year-olds currently walk for ten minutes a day.Children in Britain walk 50 miles a year less than they did a decade ago.Around 20% of children can be classed as , computers, cultural changes and fears for children’s safety out of doors play a large par t.Walking offers a great way to help kids get the active habit.If parents express excitement about the prospect (前景) of a walk in the countryside, they are more likely to pass this feeling to their children.It’s important to treat the walk as an explorati on or adventure and to go at the child’s pace, no matter how often they want to stop and look at things, take treats to eat and plenty to drink, and head for some landmarks that will attract them such as a castle, a playground, an ice cream car or a boating pond.If children experience walking as part of a fun activity, they are more likely to want to go again.1. We know from the passage that regular walking __________.A. can make people live longer and healthierB. has nothing to do with cardiovascular diseaseC. increases fitness only if you walk as fast as you canD. will help you put on much weight in a short time2. Which of the following is a reason why young people walk less than before?A. They have more homework to do.B. They have fitness equipment at home.C. Their parents worry about their safety.D. They want to learn more knowledge on TV.3. In the last paragraph the author suggests that __________.A. children should be led by parents when they play outdoorsB. parents should help their children form a habit of walkingC. parents should not care about their children too muchD. children should do more explorative and adventure activities【答案解析】 1. A 2. C 3. B这是一篇说明文。

People who want to take the summer adventure holiday _____.A. can stay overnight if they wantB. should have basic skills inswimmingC. should have a knowledge of first aidD. can do any sport they areinterested inBOne of the major problems facing nursing homes is that patients don't move around enough. All too often the elderly end up sitting and looking at a wall or into a television. They're usually not motivated (有积极性的) to exercise, partly because getting moving again after a long period of inactivity can cause pain, and partly because it's not interesting to sit and look at a wall while you bike.A new research project from Aalborg University in Denmark may have the solution: virtual reality (VR). The project, led by Jon Ram Bruun-Pedersen, uses the technology to get the elderly on exercise bikes, thus turning exercise into a virtual experience.In Bruun-Pedersen's study, large TV screens were set up in front of the exercisebikes in the nursing home's activity room. While they biked, the 21 seniors rode through various virtual landscapes on the TV screen. The bikes were connected with the screens so the speed the subjects biked with was related to their speed through the landscape.“The study showed that seniors were happy with the experience and really lived it,” says Bruun-Pedersen. “They felt as if they had to ride harder to get up the3hill on the screen.”Next, the elderly subjects wore VR glasses with small screens in front of their eyes. The feeling is very true to life, and the elderly subjects vividly (逼真地) experienced being out in the great outdoors — even though they were still on an exercise bike in the activity room.“We set the study up so the elderly could ride in the same landscapes they knew from the screens. They took to the experience amazingly well,” Bruun-Pedersen said. “The seniors' desire to use the exercise bikes greatly increased.”“This is really good,” he says. “Partly because it's good for them physically to move more, but also because I wanted them to experience getting out in the world — even if it's a virtual world.”24. According to the text, what is a reason why the elderly seldom move around?A. They are not in good health.B. They are afraid of getting hurt.C. Doing exercise may be painful.D. It's more interesting to watch TV.25. What can we infer(推断)about the seniors' experience in Bruun-Pedersen's study?A. The VR glasses helped them bike easier and faster.B. They tried to avoid moving around in the outdoors.C. They had to ride harder when climbing a virtual hill.D. The faster they biked the quicker they traveled on screen.26. What did the subjects of the study think of their virtual cycling tour?A. Enjoyable.B. Dangerous.C. Relaxing.D. Tiring.27. How is the text mainly developed?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By asking questions and answering them.D. By raising a problem and offering the solution.COld paintings are helping experts unlock a mystery about people from long ago. Experts say the art — and the pyramid — belonged to the Mayan civilization. A civilization is a society. The Mayas were native peoples who lived more than 1,000 years ago in what is now Mexico and Central America.The murals (壁画) are about 1,350 years old. So far, experts have discovered about 30 of them in Calakmul, Mexico. They show scenes of everyday Mayan life. It's a side of the Mayas that has rarely been seen before, even though researchers have studied the civilization for about a century, says expert Michael Coe.“We neverhad anything like this before,” Coe explained. “This is something that's completely new to us.”Most Mayan art shows how rulers and royalty (贵族) lived. The newly discovered murals are of regular citizens doing ordinary things, such as shopping and eating. One painting shows a woman selling tamales to a crowd of customers. Another is of people eating corn. Other murals show Mayan goods being transported to market. “Mostly you get the murals that show gods and kings, never anything about daily life,” Coe says. “This is like walking into a Mayan supermarket.”4The Mayas were more than just painters. They developed their own form of math. They also studied science and the universe. The Mayas were writers, as well. They made books out of the bark (树皮) of fig trees. The civilization also came up with its own form of hieroglyphics.Some of the recently uncovered murals include hieroglyphics that label (标注) the people and objects with pictures. Thanks to the paintings, researchers have learned a few new hieroglyphics, including those for the words corn and salt. “Some of the hieroglyphics are still very hard to understand,” Simon Martin, one of the experts studying the symbols, explained. “I will be working on those and hope to understand them.”Scientists are busy excavating the rest of the pyramid. They're not sure why the Mayas created the structure or the murals on it, but they hope to learn more as they continue to dig. Martin believes there are at least a dozen murals left to be discovered. The work will be slow going though. The ancient paintings must be treated with care so they're not damaged. “It's rare to find paintings like these in such good condition,” Martin said. “But we know that there are more still to be uncovered.”28.

As a matter of fact, nothing was fun without Martin. My daughter Jane lived in another town about fifty miles away. It wasn't a great distance, but she was busy with a job and two young boys.One morning, I saw a skinny little dog coming from behind the house. His tail and his head were lowered and he watched me with wary (警惕的) eyes as he slowly approached. If he hadn't been so dirty he would have probably been white, but he was so caked with mud that it was hard to tell. Sighing, I cut up a few pieces of5meat and put them on a paper plate and filled a bowl with water before going back outside. At the sound of the screen door, the dog lifted his head, a hopeful lookin his chocolate eyes. I placed my offerings at the edge of the porch (门廊) and watched him for a moment. He eyed the plate of meat hungrily and lifted one paw ( 爪) as if to step forward, but he was afraid. I went back inside the house, knowing he would quickly eat the food once he felt safe.When I went out to get the mail I saw that the dog was asleep on my porch. I looked through the mail, feeling certain that I would find a card from Jane. Saturday had been my birthday. Obviously, she had been too busy to come by or call. I found no card from Jane.I sat down in the rocker (摇椅) on my porch and started to cry. Suddenly I felta rough tongue licking my hand. Surprised, I looked into the upturned face of the dirty dog. His front paws rested on the arms of the rocker, and his expressive brown eyes seemed to be filled with understanding. He had such a sincere, concerned look on his little face that I found myself smile down at him and pat his head. He gave a small whimper (呜咽声) as if to tell me that he also needed a little love and affection.I looked down at the dog, amazed that he had put aside his own suffering to offer me comfort. He had been on his own, alone, hungry and afraid. He had no way of knowing how I might react to his display (展示) of affection. He could have been driven away and shouted at, but he gave me what he sensed I needed. He was smelly, but at that moment he was the most attractive dog I had ever seen. I thought that Martin would be a good name for this warm, friendly dog. Now I still wish Jane would visit or call more often. But I am no longer consumed by it. Martin has put joy back into my heart again. I found a purpose to live in Martin. He has filled the lonely, sad void in my life.32.
