Physical education, or gym class, isn’t required for all high school students. In some schools, it isn’t offered for some different reasons. But should high school students have physical education The answer is certainly “yes”.
Today many people don’t do sports. But as is known to all, doing sports is very important for an adult. Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult.
High school isn’t that easy. Many students are under a lot of stress. Stress can be harmful to a student’s studies and life. Doing sports can help them deal with stress better, helping them live a happier life at school.
The American Heart Association says that 10 million kids and teens suffer from obesity (肥胖症). Teens should get 60 minutes of physical activity per day to control their weight and to help their bones get stronger.
The increase in activities that don’t get teens to move around, such as video games and computer activities, means many teens don’t get their required exercise. Physical education classes act as a public health measure to encourage activity and help teens have healthy weights.
Inactivity increases teens’ risk of developing many diseases. An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems. As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes toward treating medical conditions that can be hindered by lifestyle changes, according to the American College of Sports Medicine.
According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition (PCFSN), students who performed five hours of physical activity each week improved their academic (学业的) performance. Students from programs with no physical activity, who used the extra time for classroom study, did not perform better on tests than those who gave up some study time in support of physical education.
4. According to Paragraph 2, what does physical education in high school mean
A. Helping teens learn to make good plans.
B. Removing the stress faced by teens at school.
C. Getting teens to encourage adults to exercise.
D. Making teens attach importance to exercise later.
5. What does the underlined word “hindered” in Paragraph 6 mean
A. Measured. B. Shown. C. Prevented. D. Caused.
6. According to the PCFSN, what does doing sports mean
A. Helping students do better in their studies.
B. Helping students make good use of all their time.
C. Helping students adjust to their studies better.
D. Making students choose between sports and studies.
7. What is the text mainly about
A. How high school students can live a better life.
B. Why high school students should receive physical education.
C. Why some schools consider physical education important.
D. How schools can help students love doing sports.
C
More than half of the food produced in Canada goes to waste. A shocking new study has shown that the level of food waste is far worse than previously thought, at 58%. Of that, about 85% of food waste is due to food processors. This differs from earlier studies, which criticized families for driving food waste and said they were responsible for 51% of food waste.
The study was carried out by Martin Hooch, the leading expert on food waste and the author of several previous studies on the subject. Reflecting on the study’s findings, Hooch said, “It means stopping criticizing consumers. Sure, consumers are part of the problem, but they’re not the problem.”
In the past, Hooch didn’t master good data, particularly from the private factories, but relied on numbers collected by the food industry for purposes other than tracking waste. This time, however, Hooch worked directly with companies at all stages along the food production chain and interviewed over 700 experts in the industry. Clearly he found it hard to believe what he was seeing.
This is what they found: Food processing causes 34% of food waste. This is followed by production, which causes 24%. Next is manufacturing at 13%, then hotels and restaurants at 9%. Families cause only 14%, and market sales 6%. This should be a scrious wake-up call for Canadians who would do well to examine their own food supply chains. Food waste is costly, not only in terms of dollars wasted, but also in resources like land, water, and so on. To be using these resources and wasting the product is totally irresponsible and unnecessary.
To make matters worse, when food is thrown into rubbish cans, it produces methane, a greenhouse gas 30 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO2). At Canada’s rate of food waste, that’s like adding 12 million cars to the road. It seems that the food industry needs redesigning. Therefore, let’s hope the government takes action.
8. What did earlier studies say about food waste in Canada
A. Families were to blame for food waste. B. Food went bad when it was processed.
C. Most of the food was wasted on purpose. D. Food waste was better than expected.
9. How did Hooch do his study on food waste this time
A. By studying data from the industry. B. By drawing a conclusion from the previous studies.
C. By collecting advice from experts worldwide. D. By tracking the whole production chain.
10. Why does food waste have an effect on the environment
A. Because it is harmful to the trees. B. Because it produces more greenhouse gas.
C. Because it gives off unpleasant smells. D. Because it pollutes the soil around it.
11. What is the main idea of the text
A. Canadians don’t like to save food for future.
B. Families are mainly responsible for food waste.
C. More than half of the food is wasted in Canada.
D. The food industry is better redesigned in Canada.
D
The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.
Taking too many pictures could actually harm the brain’s ability to keep memories, says Elizabeth Loftus, a psychology professor at the University of California, Irvine. So we get the photo but kind of lose the memory.
Photography “outsources” memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures, or we’re so distracted (分散注意力的) by the process that we miss the moment altogether.
The first explanation is the loss of memory. People know that their camera is recording that moment, so they don’t try to remember. Similarly, if you write down someone’s phone number, you’re less likely to remember it offhand because your brain tells you there’s just no need. That’s all well and good — until that piece of paper goes missing.
The other is distraction. We’re distracted by the process of taking a photo—how we hold our phone, composing the photo, such as smiling faces, the background to our liking and clear image, all of which uses up our attention that could otherwise help us memorize.
However, taking photos can benefit memory — when done mindfully. While taking a photo may be distracting, the act of preparation by focusing on visual details around has some upsides. When people take the time to zoom in (拉近镜头) on specific things, memories become strengthened.
Another benefit is that we recall moments more accurately with the photos. Memory has been reshaped with the help of new information and new experiences. Thus, photos or videos help us recall moments as if they really happened.
Memories die away without a visual record backing them up. Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.
12. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To call on readers not to take photos. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To show the interest in taking photos. D. To make us think of similar experience.
13. Why does photography “outsource” memories
A. People depend more on photos to remember than their brains.
B. Many sources influence people’s memories during photo-taking.
C. Photos are more detailed than memories.
D. Taking photos is helpful for us to memorize.
14. What may likely be discussed next
A. Situations when taking photos is better.
B. How to use photo-taking to memorize better.
C. When distraction is most likely to happen.
D. How to stay focused while taking photos.
15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. The Fewer Photos We Take, the Better We Will Remember.
B. Too Many Photos Taken Results in Poor Memories.
C. Photography Does Help to Memories.
D. Remember the Moment and Take Photos Properly.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余项。
Should teens do housework after school ___16___Some might claim that doing housework is a waste of time, while others feel that housework is a good opportunity for teens to become more mature. As for me, I strongly argue that it is indeed necessary for teens to do household work to help develop a sense of responsibility.
First of all, to be responsible, teenagers should learn how to manage their time. ___17___When I was in senior high, I had to wash dishes every day. Therefore, I learned how to do my chores (家务) quickly to save more time for studying and relaxing. On the other hand, my little brother did not do any housework, so he always struggled to keep to his schedule.
___18___Doing household chores can train teens to become independent people. For instance, when my sister was in high school, she had to do her own washing and cleaning, and even cook her own food. As a result, she knew how to take care of herself. She rarely relied on anyone.
Finally, doing household chores can help teens become better leaders. ___19___When my family clean the house together, I often give orders and see everyone do his or her own work. My sister is in charge of dusting the floor, I clean the windows, and my brother takes out the waste. ___20___Moreover, statistics show that a lot of students who are class leaders often are responsible for the main household chores in their families.
A. Take my personal experience for example.
B. People adopt different stands toward this issue.
C. Besides, being responsible means being independent.
D. Parents feel angry if their teens don't help with the housework.
E. Secondly, it gives teens the sense that they're part of the family.
F. Doing household work can help them develop good time management skills.
G. As a result, when I was selected as the leader in group projects, I felt confident about it.

Physical education, or gym class, isn’t required for all high school students. In some schools, it isn’t offered for some different reasons. But should high school students have physical education The answer is certainly “yes”.
Today many people don’t do sports. But as is known to all, doing sports is very important for an adult. Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult.
High school isn’t that easy. Many students are under a lot of stress. Stress can be harmful to a student’s studies and life. Doing sports can help them deal with stress better, helping them live a happier life at school.
The American Heart Association says that 10 million kids and teens suffer from obesity (肥胖症). Teens should get 60 minutes of physical activity per day to control their weight and to help their bones get stronger.
The increase in activities that don’t get teens to move around, such as video games and computer activities, means many teens don’t get their required exercise. Physical education classes act as a public health measure to encourage activity and help teens have healthy weights.
Inactivity increases teens’ risk of developing many diseases. An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems. As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes toward treating medical conditions that can be hindered by lifestyle changes, according to the American College of Sports Medicine.
According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition (PCFSN), students who performed five hours of physical activity each week improved their academic (学业的) performance. Students from programs with no physical activity, who used the extra time for classroom study, did not perform better on tests than those who gave up some study time in support of physical education.
4. According to Paragraph 2, what does physical education in high school mean
A. Helping teens learn to make good plans.
B. Removing the stress faced by teens at school.
C. Getting teens to encourage adults to exercise.
D. Making teens attach importance to exercise later.
5. What does the underlined word “hindered” in Paragraph 6 mean
A. Measured. B. Shown. C. Prevented. D. Caused.
6. According to the PCFSN, what does doing sports mean
A. Helping students do better in their studies.
B. Helping students make good use of all their time.
C. Helping students adjust to their studies better.
D. Making students choose between sports and studies.
7. What is the text mainly about
A. How high school students can live a better life.

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But as is known to all, doing sports is very important for an adult. Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult.”（但众所周知，做运动对成年人来说是非常重要的。教育青少年健康生活方式的重要性，制定健身计划，可以帮助青少年在成年后把锻炼放在首位。）可知，高中体育课可以帮助青少年重视以后的锻炼。故选D项。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第六段“An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems. As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes toward treating medical conditions”（积极的生活方式是避免这些健康问题的好方法。高达75%的医疗保健支出用于治疗疾病）及“by lifestyle changes”（通过生活方式的改变）可知，积极的生活方式可以避免一些健康问题，所以改变生活方式可以阻止疾病，hindered在此处意为prevented(阻止)。故选C项。

But should high school students have physical education The answer is certainly “yes”.”（不是所有的高中生都要上体育课。在有些学校，没有提供这种课程是有其他原因的。但是高中生应该接受体育教育吗？答案当然是肯定的。）可知，第一段引入高中应该有体育课的话题，结合下文主要围绕体育运动对青少年的好处展开可知，文章主要阐述高中生接受体育教育的理由。故选B项。

More than half of the food produced in Canada goes to waste. A shocking new study has shown that the level of food waste is far worse than previously thought, at 58%. Of that, about 85% of food waste is due to food processors. This differs from earlier studies, which criticized families for driving food waste and said they were responsible for 51% of food waste.
The study was carried out by Martin Hooch, the leading expert on food waste and the author of several previous studies on the subject. Reflecting on the study’s findings, Hooch said, “It means stopping criticizing consumers. Sure, consumers are part of the problem, but they’re not the problem.”
In the past, Hooch didn’t master good data, particularly from the private factories, but relied on numbers collected by the food industry for purposes other than tracking waste. This time, however, Hooch worked directly with companies at all stages along the food production chain and interviewed over 700 experts in the industry. Clearly he found it hard to believe what he was seeing.
This is what they found: Food processing causes 34% of food waste. This is followed by production, which causes 24%. Next is manufacturing at 13%, then hotels and restaurants at 9%. Families cause only 14%, and market sales 6%. This should be a scrious wake-up call for Canadians who would do well to examine their own food supply chains. Food waste is costly, not only in terms of dollars wasted, but also in resources like land, water, and so on. To be using these resources and wasting the product is totally irresponsible and unnecessary.
To make matters worse, when food is thrown into rubbish cans, it produces methane, a greenhouse gas 30 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO2). At Canada’s rate of food waste, that’s like adding 12 million cars to the road. It seems that the food industry needs redesigning. Therefore, let’s hope the government takes action.
8. What did earlier studies say about food waste in Canada
A. Families were to blame for food waste. B. Food went bad when it was processed.
C. Most of the food was wasted on purpose. D. Food waste was better than expected.
9. How did Hooch do his study on food waste this time
A. By studying data from the industry. B. By drawing a conclusion from the previous studies.
C. By collecting advice from experts worldwide. D. By tracking the whole production chain.
10. Why does food waste have an effect on the environment
A. Because it is harmful to the trees. B. Because it produces more greenhouse gas.
C. Because it gives off unpleasant smells. D. Because it pollutes the soil around it.
11. What is the main idea of the text
A. Canadians don’t like to save food for future.
B. Families are mainly responsible for food waste.
C. More than half of the food is wasted in Canada.
D. The food industry is better redesigned in Canada.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了加拿大生产的食物中有一半以上是浪费的，科学家们研究了废弃物的来源和对环境造成的影响，作者想借此文章呼吁政府行动起来保护环境。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“This differs from earlier studies, which criticized families for driving food waste and said they were responsible for 51% of food waste.(这与早期的研究不同，早期的研究批评家庭是造成食物浪费的罪魁祸首，并表示家庭应为51%的食物浪费负责。)”可知，早些时候的研究表明，加拿大家庭的食物浪费是造成食物浪费的罪魁祸首。故选A。
9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“This time, however, Hooch worked directly with companies at all stages along the food production chain and interviewed over 700 experts in the industry.(然而，这一次，Hooch直接与食品生产链的各个阶段的公司合作，并采访了700多名业内专家。)”可知，Hooch这次通过跟踪整个生产链来研究食物浪费。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“To make matters worse, when food is thrown into rubbish cans, it produces methane, a greenhouse gas 30 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO2).(更糟糕的是，当食物被扔进垃圾桶时，它会产生甲烷，一种比二氧化碳强30倍的温室气体。)”可推知，食物浪费会对环境产生影响是因为它会产生更多的温室气体。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。阅读文章内容，并结合第一段的“More than half of the food produced in Canada goes to waste.(加拿大生产的食物有一半以上都被浪费了。)”可知，本文主要讲述了加拿大生产的食物中有一半以上被浪费了。结合选项可知，选项C符合题意。故选C。

The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.
Taking too many pictures could actually harm the brain’s ability to keep memories, says Elizabeth Loftus, a psychology professor at the University of California, Irvine. So we get the photo but kind of lose the memory.
Photography “outsources” memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures, or we’re so distracted (分散注意力的) by the process that we miss the moment altogether.
The first explanation is the loss of memory. People know that their camera is recording that moment, so they don’t try to remember. Similarly, if you write down someone’s phone number, you’re less likely to remember it offhand because your brain tells you there’s just no need. That’s all well and good — until that piece of paper goes missing.
The other is distraction. We’re distracted by the process of taking a photo—how we hold our phone, composing the photo, such as smiling faces, the background to our liking and clear image, all of which uses up our attention that could otherwise help us memorize.
However, taking photos can benefit memory — when done mindfully. While taking a photo may be distracting, the act of preparation by focusing on visual details around has some upsides. When people take the time to zoom in (拉近镜头) on specific things, memories become strengthened.
Another benefit is that we recall moments more accurately with the photos. Memory has been reshaped with the help of new information and new experiences. Thus, photos or videos help us recall moments as if they really happened.
Memories die away without a visual record backing them up. Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.
12. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To call on readers not to take photos. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To show the interest in taking photos. D. To make us think of similar experience.
13. Why does photography “outsource” memories
A. People depend more on photos to remember than their brains.
B. Many sources influence people’s memories during photo-taking.
C. Photos are more detailed than memories.
D. Taking photos is helpful for us to memorize.
14. What may likely be discussed next
A. Situations when taking photos is better.
B. How to use photo-taking to memorize better.
C. When distraction is most likely to happen.
D. How to stay focused while taking photos.
15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. The Fewer Photos We Take, the Better We Will Remember.
B. Too Many Photos Taken Results in Poor Memories.
C. Photography Does Help to Memories.
D. Remember the Moment and Take Photos Properly.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了拍太多照片不利于人们铭记瞬间的美好，作者鼓励人们应有目地、有计划地拍照。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think. (太阳落山了，孩子们在海浪中玩耍，他们的脸变得明亮起来。为了这个完美的时刻，你伸手去拿手机。但在你这么做之前，这里有一点令人惊讶的科学：拍照并不是你认为的保持记忆的完美方式。)”和下文内容可推知，本段描写海边游玩并拍照的美好画面是为了引出文章主题：拍照并不是人们所以为的保存记忆的完美方式。故选B。
13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Photography ‘outsources’ memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures, or we’re so distracted (分散注意力的) by the process that we miss the moment altogether. (摄影“外包”了记忆。它在两方面起作用：我们要么在拍照时摆脱了记住特殊时刻的责任，要么在拍照过程中分心，以至于完全错过了那个时刻。)”推知，拍照“外包”了记忆是因为人们在拍照时，更依赖照片而不是大脑来记忆。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further. (因此，照片是帮助记忆的极好工具，如果是有目的的，这是值得进一步探索的)”可推知，接下来文章可能会探讨如何利用拍照来更好地记忆。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段“The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think. (太阳落山了，孩子们在海浪中玩耍，他们的脸变得明亮起来。为了这个完美的时刻，你伸手去拿手机。但在你这么做之前，这里有一点令人惊讶的科学：拍照并不是你认为的保持记忆的完美方式。)”可知，文章主要说明了拍照并不是你认为的保持记忆的完美方式，拍太多的照片实际上会损害大脑保存记忆的能力。我们得到了照片，但失去了记忆。文章解释了背后的原因。鼓励人们应有目的有计划地拍照。由此可推知，D项“记住这一刻，适当地拍照”概括了文章大意，是本文的最佳标题。故选D。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余项。
Should teens do housework after school ___16___Some might claim that doing housework is a waste of time, while others feel that housework is a good opportunity for teens to become more mature. As for me, I strongly argue that it is indeed necessary for teens to do household work to help develop a sense of responsibility.
First of all, to be responsible, teenagers should learn how to manage their time. ___17___When I was in senior high, I had to wash dishes every day. Therefore, I learned how to do my chores (家务) quickly to save more time for studying and relaxing. On the other hand, my little brother did not do any housework, so he always struggled to keep to his schedule.
___18___Doing household chores can train teens to become independent people. For instance, when my sister was in high school, she had to do her own washing and cleaning, and even cook her own food. As a result, she knew how to take care of herself. She rarely relied on anyone.
Finally, doing household chores can help teens become better leaders. ___19___When my family clean the house together, I often give orders and see everyone do his or her own work. My sister is in charge of dusting the floor, I clean the windows, and my brother takes out the waste. ___20___Moreover, statistics show that a lot of students who are class leaders often are responsible for the main household chores in their families.
A. Take my personal experience for example.
B. People adopt different stands toward this issue.
C. Besides, being responsible means being independent.
D. Parents feel angry if their teens don't help with the housework.
E. Secondly, it gives teens the sense that they're part of the family.
F Doing household work can help them develop good time management skills.
G. As a result, when I was selected as the leader in group projects, I felt confident about it.
【答案】16. B 17. F 18. C 19. A 20. G
【解析】

【19题详解】
根据下文“When my family clean the house together, I often give orders and see everyone do his or her own work. My sister is in charge of dusting the floor, I clean the windows, and my brother takes out the waste.(当我的家人一起打扫房子的时候，我经常发号施令，看着每个人都做他或她自己的工作。我姐姐负责扫地，我擦窗户，我哥哥拿垃圾。)”可知，作者以自身为例，说明做家务可以让青少年成为领导者。选项A“Take my personal experience for example.(以我的个人经历为例。)”符合下文。故选A。
【20题详解】
根据上文“When my family clean the house together, I often give orders and see everyone do his or her own work. My sister is in charge of dusting the floor, I clean the windows, and my brother takes out the waste.(当我的家人一起打扫房子的时候，我经常发号施令，看着每个人都做他或她自己的工作。我姐姐负责扫地，我擦窗户，我哥哥拿垃圾。)”可知，作者通过在家做家务锻炼了自己的领导能力。选项G“As a result, when I was selected as the leader in group projects, I felt confident about it.(因此，当我在小组项目中被选为组长的时候，我很有信心。)”是上文的延续，说明作者通过做家务锻炼了自己的领导能力后，被选为组长后才会很有信心。故选G。

【36题详解】
考查名词。句意：12月初，由于对中国教育事业的贡献，张桂梅被评为中国共产党全国优秀党员。根据空前的her可知，空处需要名词作介词的宾语。contribute为动词，其名词形式为contribution，意为“贡献”。故填contribution。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：大约20年前，在去一个学生家的路上，华坪的张桂梅老师注意到一个女孩坐在山坡上。notice sb. doing sth.是固定搭配，意为“注意到某人正在做某事”，用现在分词作宾语补足语，表示动作“正在发生，尚未结束”。故填sitting。
【38题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：张来到她家，试图说服她的父母让女孩回到学校，并承诺自己支付学费。根据句意，张桂梅承诺“自己”帮忙支付学费，用反身代词herself表示强调。故填herself。
【39题详解】
考查介词。句意：从那时起，张梦想着建一所免费的女子高中。dream of是固定短语，意为“梦想……”。故填of。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意：经过多年的努力筹集资金，最终在华坪狮子山脚下创办了华坪女子中学，这是一所免费的公立高中，张就是这里的校长。空处修饰后面的句子，需要副词eventually“最终”，作状语。故填eventually。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：经过多年的努力筹集资金，最终在华坪狮子山脚下创办了华坪女子中学，这是一所免费的公立高中，张就是这里的校长。分析句子可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词Huaping High School for Girls，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作地点状语，应使用关系副词where引导该从句。故填where。
【42题详解】
考查时态。句意：自2008年以来，已有1800多名学生进入大学，这在那个遥远的地区被认为是一个“奇迹”。分析句子结构可知，空处为句子的谓语动词。根据时间状语“Since 2008”可知，句子为现在完成时态，主语和该动词之间为主动关系，主语为复数，助动词have。故填have entered。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意：张积极地在当地的教育工作中起着积极的作用。play a part in是固定短语，意为“在……中发挥作用”，空处用不定冠词，又因active是以元音音素开头的单词，用不定冠词an修饰。故填an。
【44题详解】
考查固定句型。句意：据报道，她在2021年2月的全国“教师榜样”活动中获得了这一荣誉。It is reported that...是固定句型，意为“据报道……”，其中it是形式主语，that引导主语从句。故填that。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意：她感人的故事鼓舞了成千上万的人。空处需要形容词修饰名词stories。move为动词，其形容词形式可为moving“令人感动的”，该形容词一般表示某事令人感动。而move的另一种形容词形式为moved“感动的”，一般修饰人的感受，指人是感动的。所以空处用moving修饰stories，表示“令人感动的故事”。故填moving。
