For most of us，walking is something we do automatically．It doesn't require much effort，so many of us fail to remember the benefits of walking for health．
Physical activity doesn't need to be hard．Whether you're regularly active or not，even a quick ten-minute daily walk can deliver a host of health benefits．But what happens if we stop walking ahead and start challenging our brains and bodies by walking backwards Not only does this change of direction demand more of our attention，but it may also bring additional health benefits．
One of the most well studied benefits of walking backwards is improving stability and balance．Walking backwards can improve how a person walks and balance for healthy adults and those with knee problems．Walking backwards causes us to take shorter，more frequent steps，leading to improve the muscles of the lower legs．But the benefits of changing direction aren't just that—an interest in backward movement has led researchers to discover various other benefits．While normal walking can help us maintain a healthy weight，walking backwards may be even more effective．Energy expenditure when walking backwards is almost 40 percent higher than walking at the same speed forwards，with one study showing reductions in body fat for women who completed a six-week backward walk．
Walking backwards is simple，but that doesn't mean it's easy．So，how can you add walking backwards into your exercise plan When walking backwards，we're more likely to crash into something or fall over，so in the interest of safety，it's best to start indoors where you won't crash into someone or outside in a flat，open area．Look over your shoulder．Keep your head and chest upright while reaching back with your big toe for each step，rolling through the foot from toe to heel．Once you become more confident about walking backwards，you can begin to speed things up．
1．Why does the author mention“the benefits of walking” in the beginning
A．To introduce the benefits of walking．
B．To show people's lack of exercise．
C．To lead us to“walking backwards”．
D．To tell us the importance of walking．
2．What does the underlined word“expenditure” mean
A．Increase． B．Consumption．
C．Experiment． D．Construction．
3．What does the fourth paragraph talk about
A．When is safe to walk backwards
B．Why should we walk backwards
C．How can we start walking backwards
D．What's the weakness of walking backwards
4．What is the best title for the passage
A．Physical Activity Is Easy and Simple
B．Walking Backwards Is Really Good for You
C．Walking Doesn't Require Any Special Equipment
D．Walking Ahead Challenges Our Brains and Bodies

Ⅲ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了倒走的好处以及如何开始倒走。
1．C [推理判断题。根据第一段“For most of us，walking is something we do automatically．It doesn't require much effort，so many of us fail to remember the benefits of walking for health．”以及第二段中的“But what happens if we stop walking ahead and start challenging our brains and bodies by walking backwards Not only does this change of direction demand more of our attention，but it may also bring additional health benefits．”可推知，作者在开头提到“步行的好处”是为了引出“倒走”。故选C。]
2．B [词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“when walking backwards is almost 40 percent higher than walking at the same speed forwards，with one study showing reductions in body fat for women who completed a six-week backward walk．”可知，倒走比以同样速度向前走消耗的能量高出近40%，故画线词意思是“消耗”。故选B。]
3．C [段落大意题。根据第四段内容可知，该段主要讲述了我们如何开始倒走。故选C。]
4．B [标题归纳题。根据第二段并结合全文可知，文章主要说明了倒走的好处以及如何开始倒走，B选项“倒着走真的对你有好处”最适合作文章标题。故选B。]
Ⅳ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了来自南德比郡的中学生Annie拾金不昧的事迹以及警方对她的表扬，并呼吁整个社区向她学习。

3．C [根据下文中的“it for a balloon，but it was actually an envelope”可知，她以为是一个气球，但实际上是一个信封。由此可知，“误以为”符合语境。故选C项。]
4．D [根据下文中的“with her trolley”可知，手推车“碾压”过去，run over意为“碾压”，符合语境。故选D项。]
5．B [根据常识和下文中的“Derbyshire police”可知，此处指的是马上“报告”给警察。故选B项。]
6．A [根据语境和常识可知，钱交给警方，失主来领取时，应该是“安全地”归还给失主。故选A项。]
7．C [根据语境以及下文中的“came forward to claim it”可知，来领取的应该是失主，也就是“物主”。故选C项。]
8．D [根据上文介绍的故事可知，Annie拾金不昧。由此可知，Annie是一个“善良的”孩子。故选D项。]
9．C [根据下文中的“She is a truly ________ girl who deserves the thanks and praise of the whole community．”可知，此处指的是给Annie的“感谢”信。故选C项。]
10．B [根据下文Annie对警方来访的回应“I only did the right thing．”可知，Annie认为自己只是做了一件正确的事情，所以此处应是拒绝了“奖励”。故选B项。]
11．A [根据下文中的“When I saw much money burst out of the envelope，I felt amazed．I thought the one who ________ it must feel worried．I only did the right thing．”可知，此处指的是Annie对警方的来访的“回应”。故选A项。]

13．D [根据上文介绍的故事可知，Annie拾金不昧。由此可知，此处指的是Annie被“表扬”。故选D项。]
14．A [根据上文中的“Words cannot describe Annie．”可知，此处都是警官Bob对Annie的溢美之词，所以此处指Annie是“了不起的”女孩。故选A项。]
15．B [根据上文可知，Annie拾金不昧，这是一种“诚实”的美德。故选B项。]
Ⅴ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了巴黎奥运会将著名地标变为体育场馆，为激动人心的赛事创造了建筑与比赛的结合，给人们留下了难忘的回忆。
1．creating [考查非谓语动词。句意：巴黎奥运会将这座城市著名的地标变成了体育场馆，为这些激动人心的赛事创造了一个定义文化的背景。句中已有谓语have turned，空处需用动词-ing形式creating作伴随状语。故填creating。]
2．competition [考查名词。句意：建筑与竞赛的结合给人们留下了难忘的回忆。根据空前的“architecture and”可知，空处需用名词competition“竞赛”与“architecture”并列，作介词of的宾语，句中指的是“竞赛”这一概念，用单数形式。故填competition。]
3．a [考查冠词。句意：其中一个突出的场地是荣军院广场，它位于荣军院酒店外面，是射箭比赛的举办地。根据空后的“large space”可知，空处表泛指，需用不定冠词表示，且large的发音以辅音音素开头，应用a。故填a。]
4．as [考查介词。句意：这家旅馆有300多年的历史，最初是作为伤兵和退役军人的医院。serve as“充当；作为……使用”，固定短语。故填as。]
5．athletes [考查名词复数。句意：看着运动员们拉弓射箭，箭矢在古代建筑的背景下在空中飞翔，是一道奇观。athlete“运动员”为可数名词，由后文“draw their bows and release arrows”可知，此处指不止一个运动员，应用复数形式。故填athletes。]
6．that/which [考查定语从句。句意：看着运动员们拉弓射箭，箭矢在古代建筑的背景下飞过，真是奇观。空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词arrows，指物，故用关系代词that或which引导。故填that/which。]
7．Similarly [考查副词。句意：同样，2008年北京奥运会的射击馆也是建筑设计的奇迹。空处需用副词similarly来修饰整个句子，作状语，表示“同样地”。且位于句首，单词首字母要大写。故填Similarly。]
8．is covered [考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：它的外表面覆盖着棕色、类似木质的条纹。空处是句子的谓语动词，陈述客观事实用一般现在时，主语Its outside surface与谓语动词cover“覆盖”之间构成被动关系，应用一般现在时的被动语态，且主语为单数名词，故be动词用is。故填is covered。]
9．to provide [考查非谓语动词。句意：正如清华大学的建筑师所说，这些条纹代表着森林，并被巧妙地用来为场馆内提供阴凉。be used to do sth．“被用来做某事”，固定短语，故空处需用动词不定式to provide表目的。故填to provide。]
10．their [考查代词。句意：北京和巴黎奥运会的体育场馆都展现出了它们独特的魅力——现代与历史、体育与文化的结合。修饰名词uniqueness，应用形容词性物主代词their，作定语。故填their。]
