Playing tennis regularly could help keep people off death, but football, rugby and running may not help people to live longer, a study suggests.
A study followed more than 80,000 people for an average of nine years to find out if certain sports protected them against early death.It found that people who played racket sports regularly were the least likely to die over the study period, reducing their individual risk by 47 percent compared with people who did no exercise.Swimmers also reduced their chance of death by 28 percent, aerobics (有氧运动) fans by 27 percent and cyclists by 15 percent.Yet running appeared to have no impact at all on dying early, and neither did playing football or rugby.
Scientists say the difference may lie in the social aspect which goes alongside sports like tennis and squash (壁球), which often involve clubs and organised activities outside of the game.It means that people often have larger social networks and tend to keep up activities into later life, both of which are proven to be good for health.
In contrast, people who play team sports often do not move onto a new sport once their teams break up for family, or injury reasons.They become watchers rather than participants in their chosen activity.
The researchers found that playing racket sports was associated with a 56 percent lower risk from heart death.Similarly, swimmers lowered their heart disease or stroke risk by 41 percent, and people who took part in activities like aerobics, dance or gymnastics lowered their risk by 36 percent.But again running, football and rugby had no significant impact on heart deaths.
However, other experts argue that this study must not be misinterpreted as showing that running and football do not protect against heart disease.In this study both runners and footballers had a lower rate of death from heart disease.
1．Which sport has hardly any impact on protecting people against early death？
A．Cycling. B．Swimming.
C．Rugby. D．Tennis.
2．According to the study, which makes a big difference in keeping healthy？
A．Playing basketball with their friends occasionally.
B．Watching football games every day.
C．Taking up gymnastics and joining a club.
D．Doing running in the park every day.
3．What is considered more important to people's health？
A．Social networks. B．Staying at home.
C．Physical examinations. D．Setting up families.
4．What is the main idea of the text？
A．Thousands of people participated in a 9-year research.
B．Study finds playing tennis helps people live longer.
C．It is wrong to say running has no impact on heart disease.
D．There are differences between racket sports and team games.

When I was in my fourth year of teaching, I was also(and am still)a high school track and field coach (田径教练)．One year，I had a student，John，who entered my class when he was a junior.John changed to our school from Greece，and seemed to be interested in sports, so I encouraged him to join our track team.I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he could do well in any event，and that I would be willing to coach him in whichever ones interested him.He accepted the offer，and began to work hard at every practice.
About a month later，I found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player，winning various junior awards in his home country.I went to him asking，“John, I really appreciate that you came out for the track team，but why didn't you play tennis instead？It seems that it will interest you a lot more，since you're so good at it.”John answered，“Well, I like tennis, but you told me that you believed in me, and that you thought I could do well in track，so I wanted to try it for that reason.”
From then on, I often remember my student's reply.I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down to share somewhere with more teachers.No matter how critical (挑剔的)students can be of themselves, I've found that a simple“I trust that you can do it！”can go a long way!

文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了去年暑假，作者和家人一起去游览故宫博物院的经历。
解析：
1．考查形容词最高级。句意：故宫，又名紫禁城，是当今中国最大、保存最完好的皇家住宅。根据空前the及空后and most可知，此处为并列的最高级，该空应用形容词最高级largest。故填largest。
2．考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，句中已有系动词(谓语)“is”，因此reserve作非谓语，与其逻辑主语 The Palace Museum之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词作定语。故填 reserved。
3. 考查冠词。根据设空后的名词rectangular shape可知，该空应用冠词泛指“一个……”，且rectangular的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
4．考查动词的时态和语态。分析句子可知，该句为并列句，该空为谓语成分，与主语it为被动关系，根据in the past可知，表示发生在过去的事情，所以用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was rebuilt。
5．考查固定短语。根据句意以及固定短语pass through意为“穿过……”。故填through。
6. 考查定语从句。分析句子可知，该空为定语从句引导词，在从句中指人，充当主语。故填who/that。
7. 考查名词。设空前有冠词the，空后有介词of，故该空应填名词weight，weight表示“重量，分量”时不可数。故填weight。
8. 考查副词。修饰形容词surprised，应用副词。故填really。
9．考查名词的数。根据设空前the，以及空前all the names可知，该空应填可数名词复数。故填buildings。
10．考查形容词。amazing“令人惊奇的”修饰物，amazed“感到惊奇的”常修饰人；这里修饰trip。故填amazing。
