UNIT 3 课时跟踪检测（二） 语言运用综合练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Walking is the best form of exercise. It is good for the upper respiratory (与呼吸有关的) system and the legs. It helps us control our weight and blood sugar. Walking is also a good way to help you make more friends, bringing chances to see new things and meet new people. Personally I try to walk at least 5 miles daily.
As well as walking, I also cycle around Xiamen. Cycling is great for weight loss and helps to build stamina (耐力). However, cycling does not allow for the same level of social contact as a walk. It is for this reason that I will strongly suggest that you try long-distance walking if you want to be physically healthy. I originally (最初) started walking around Xiamen because I didn't have a car, but I soon started to enjoy the walking for its own sake.
I have also made many friends during my walks. It's not uncommon for my 5-mile walk to sometimes take as long as 2 or 3 hours, because I stop to chat with different shop owners along my route. These days, if I skip my walk for even one day, the people in the shops may want to know why I didn't come.
I'll never forget the first time some people followed me when I was walking, and asked if it was okay for them to walk with me. I really didn't know what to say, so I just replied that I didn't mind. I have been invited for lunch, dinner and sometimes just to sit and drink tea with total strangers. There is nothing more pleasant than walking past a schoolyard and hearing all the kids say hello to me.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
My parents love tennis and they're members of a tennis club. My older brother was really good at it and they supported him — taking him to lessons all the time. So when I announced I wanted to be a tennis champion when I grew up, I just intended for them to notice me. My mother laughed. She knew I couldn't possibly be serious, I was just a 4-year-old kid!
Later, I joined the club's junior coaching group and eventually took part in my first proper contest, confident that my team would do well. We won, which was fantastic, but I wasn't so successful. I didn't even want to be in the team photo because I didn't feel I deserved to be. When my coach asked what happened in my final match, I didn't know what to say. I couldn't believe I'd lost. I thought I was the better player. But every time I attacked, the other player defended well. I couldn't explain the result.
After that, I decided to listen more carefully to my coach because he had lots of tips. I realised that I need the right attitude to be a winner. On the court I have a plan but sometimes the other guy will do something unexpected so I'll change it. If I lose a point, I do my best to forget it and find a way to win the next one.
At tournaments, it's impossible to avoid players who explode in anger. Lots of players can be negative, including myself sometimes. I felt angry and nearly broke my racket! But my coach has helped me develop ways to control those feelings. After all, the judges have a hard job and you just have to accept their decisions.
My coach demands that I train in the gym to make sure I'm strong right to the end of a tournament. I'm getting good results: my shots are more accurate and there's a chance that I could be a champion one day with hard work.

In order to enrich our campus life, our school organized a 5km cross-country running race last Sunday.Ninety students from twenty classes participated in the race, among whom thirty were girls.Participants set out at 9 am from the gate of the school, through the Renmin Park, and finally arrived at the foot of Nanshan Mountain.

Dannis was waiting at the airline ticket counter (售票处) when he first noticed the young woman with shiny black hair pulled tightly into a knot (结). She wore black boots of soft leather. Dannis struggled to see her face, she was ahead of him in line, but it was not until she bought her ticket and turned to walk away that he realized her beauty, which was fair-skinned (皮肤白皙的) and big-eyed. She seemed aware that he was staring at her and lowered her gaze abruptly.
His flight was leaving in an hour. To kill time, Dannis stepped into an airport bar and ordered a Scotch. While enjoying it, he watched the flow of travelers through the terminal (航站楼) until he caught sight of the black-haired girl in the leather coat again, deep in conversation with a blonde girl (金发女孩)．“Invite her for a drink？” Dannis hesitated. In another instant, the two women separated, neither of whose directions was toward him.
When next he saw her, Dannis was buying a magazine and became aware someone was pushing him. At first, he was startled (受惊吓的) that anyone would be so close as to touch him, but when he saw who it was, he smiled.
“Busy place，” Dannis said.
She looked up at him and blushed (脸红). Wordlessly, she moved away and joined the crowds in the terminal.Dannis was at the counter with his magazine, but when he reached into his pocket for his wallet, the pocket was empty. Where could I have left it His mind was racing, the credit cards, the cash, the identification card. His stomach stirred with something very like fear. “The girl who was so near to me！” he said to himself. All at once he understood she had picked his pocket. What shall he do
First, find a policeman, tell him what has happened. He would probably never see his wallet again. Dannis gritted (咬紧) his teeth. When glancing around for the police, suddenly，he spotted the black-haired girl, seated against a front window of the terminal. She seemed absorbed in a book.

Paragraph 1：
A seat beside her was empty, and Dannis occupied it. He felt a wave of anger swept over him. “Where is my wallet？” he yelled. The black-haired girl glanced up from her reading, with a confused look on her face.Dannis stood up, glared at her and shouted，“You stole my wallet！” The crowds began to gossip. The girl turned deadly pale, looking so restless that words failed her. A strange silence hung in the air. Abruptly, she leaped from the seat.
Paragraph 2：
The girl ran and Dannis ran after her. After a while, Dannis finally grabbed her by the arm. At exactly that moment, a policeman approached them and asked about what happened. Dannis hurried to explain it while the girl frowned (皱眉) with a shake of her head. After further enquiries, the policeman took out a wallet and handed it to Dannis, adding that someone had found it in the toilet. What a mistake he had made! Overwhelmed by guilt, Dannis made an apology to the girl.UNIT 3 课时跟踪检测（三） 阅读写作融会练

Overweight since her teens, Katherine Jackson lost 35 pounds in her late teens but put it all back on when she had her son. She says it was because of a sweet tooth.“I could eat a pint of ice cream in one sitting and not even think about it，” the married mother of four remembers.
She knew she had to do something, but the death of her best friend from complications (并发症) related to bariatric surgery (肥胖外科手术) caused her to stay away from the help she needed.
“It took me five years to realize I can't live a life like this，” Jackson says of finally deciding to have bariatric surgery.“My kids love the new me，” Jackson says.“And, my youngest, who is 8 and a little overweight, has been encouraged by me. We walk the track when it is warm as a family outing.” She adds, “I knew I had to do something about my health because I had to be around and watch them grow and experience life.”
After a lifetime of junk food, sweets and out-of- control amounts, Jackson had to learn a new way of eating. Now, she starts the day with a breakfast of hard-boiled eggs for the protein (蛋白质)．Lunch usually is a salad and dinner is a protein shake. She walks two to three miles a few times a week, does Zumba twice a week and rides her bike for a half-hour three times a week.
“I wish I'd been more concerned about my weight when I was younger，” Jackson says. “I wish it hadn't gotten to this point. But I'm lucky my life is so much better now.”

The Climb to the Top
My life as a kid was a sweet life. I lived in a beautiful house with the beautiful surroundings in Puerto Rico. There was one particular thing I loved and it was a huge tree that was in my backyard. As a child, I used to climb the tree every day. Every time I went, I climbed higher and higher, reaching new branches, obstacles, and pathways on my way up. One day, I reached the top and I could see my island. I felt I was on top of the world, and nothing could stop me. Then, there was the day that seemed like the end of my life. This specific day changed my life forever.
It was a nice summer day. After breakfast, my family headed to the park to see my baseball game. In the evening we went to a carnival (嘉年华) in my town. My grandma was selling blankets under a tent. Suddenly, the mood of the day changed when my parents took me to my grandma's tent. Still to this day, I remember the exact words my dad said to me, “Son, would you like to move to the United States？” I couldn't believe what he said. I then ran away from him as the tears rolled down my cheeks. My perfect life was being taken away from me.
Two weeks later, we arrived in New York in late July, and my aunt and uncle drove us to Springfield, Massachusetts where we lived for seven years. Once we got there, I met my mom's family for the first time. September came and school started. I was afraid to go to a new school and make new friends. Most kids ignored me and some tried to talk to me, but I couldn't understand them or say anything. My first year in the United States was not fun or easy but I worked hard and got through it.
Now I'm grown. I look back on the journey that I've been through: living in a new place with no friends, the new language, and the new school. Despite all those problems, I still remember that special tree. That tree taught me to never give up and reach higher. I have beaten every difficulty that I have met in life and I just keep moving forward. My perfect life was never taken away from me: it has just started.

The Climb to the Top
My life as a kid was a sweet life. I lived in a beautiful house with the beautiful surroundings in Puerto Rico. There was one particular thing I loved and it was a huge tree that was in my backyard. As a child, I used to climb the tree every day. Every time I went, I climbed higher and higher, reaching new branches, obstacles, and pathways on my way up. One day, I reached the top and I could see my island. I felt I was on top of the world, and nothing could stop me. Then, there was the day that seemed like the end of my life. This specific day changed my life forever.
It was a nice summer day. After breakfast, my family headed to the park to see my baseball game. In the evening we went to a carnival (嘉年华) in my town. My grandma was selling blankets under a tent. Suddenly, the mood of the day changed when my parents took me to my grandma's tent. Still to this day, I remember the exact words my dad said to me, “Son, would you like to move to the United States？” I couldn't believe what he said. I then ran away from him as the tears rolled down my cheeks. My perfect life was being taken away from me.
Two weeks later, we arrived in New York in late July, and my aunt and uncle drove us to Springfield, Massachusetts where we lived for seven years. Once we got there, I met my mom's family for the first time. September came and school started. I was afraid to go to a new school and make new friends. Most kids ignored me and some tried to talk to me, but I couldn't understand them or say anything. My first year in the United States was not fun or easy but I worked hard and got through it.
Now I'm grown. I look back on the journey that I've been through: living in a new place with no friends, the new language, and the new school. Despite all those problems, I still remember that special tree. That tree taught me to never give up and reach higher. I have beaten every difficulty that I have met in life and I just keep moving forward. My perfect life was never taken away from me: it has just started.
