I’m a seventeen-year-old boy preparing for my A Level exams at the end of the year. In the society where my peers and I live, we tend to accept the rat race values. As students, we want to get good grades so that we can get good jobs. I enjoy studying and have consistently received A’s in my classes. There was a year when I finished first in my class in the final exams. It was a great accomplishment.
Another one I am pleased with is that I managed to improve the relationship between Mum and Dad. Dad was a successful businessman who was rarely at home. Mum was a housewife who always felt bored and constantly nagged (唠叨) him to let her go to work. Their constant arguing bothered me, so I advised Dad that Mum would be better off with a part-time job. He agreed, and their relationship has improved since then.
My most proud achievement, however, is my successful work in the local old folks’ home. My grandparents had raised me since I was a child. I wept (哭泣) bitterly when they died. Unlike many of my classmates, I do not take part in my school’s community service to earn points. I enjoy my voluntary work and believe I’m contributing to a worthwhile cause. This is where I can help. I talk to the elderly, assist them with their daily life, and listen to their problems, glory days and the hardships they experienced.
Last year, I hosted a successful New Year party for the elderly and they enjoyed a great time. Many expressed a desire to attend another party the following year. When I reflect on my accomplishments, I’m especially proud of my service at the old folks’ home, so I hope to study social work at university and work as a social worker in the future. I wish to be more skilled in attending to the less fortunate as well as find great satisfaction in it.

It can be incredibly difficult to encourage ourselves to go for a run during winter, particularly when it’s wet and windy outside. But new research has found that even a super-quick run could have great health benefits. In fact, it seems that just a 10-minute session will not only make us feel better, but could actually improve brain health, too. Now, we all know that exercise can improve mental and physical health in many ways.
But when it comes to mental well-being, there’s been relatively little research done on the specific benefits of running, compared with other physical activities, such as cycling. So this was something put to the test during a recent study. Researchers from University of Tsukuba in Japan asked participants (参加者) to run on a treadmill (跑步机) for just 10 minutes. They then had to take a Stroop Color and Word Test which is used to measure reaction time in brain processing. Results showed there was a highest point in self-reported pleasure and an increase in degree of activity of the brain.
In other words, runners were found to have an increase in blood flow in the part of the brain that’s associated with dealing with functions and controlling mood (情绪). Researchers then compared these results to a similar study on cycling, which also showed improved cognition (认知), but no mood improvement. Therefore, it seems various types of exercise can make us feel differently.
The authors noted, “Given exercise is medicine, the effects of drugs differ depending on the type of drug, and different types of exercise such as running and cycling should be observed to have different effects on mental health and brain functions as well.”
So pushing ourselves to get outside for a run really will make us feel better, probably more than other fitness activities. And these findings show that we don’t necessarily need to do a lot of exercise to feel the benefit of it.
8. What did the new research find
A. Running fast benefits all of us.
B. Running is the best exercise.
C. A short time run can be beneficial.
D. A healthy mind encourages us to run.
9. How did the researchers get the result
A. By using different drugs on participants.
B. By interviewing some sportsmen.
C. By collecting information on the Internet.
D. By doing experiments and comparisons.
10. Which is related to our happiness
A. Cycling. B. Medicine. C. Blood flow. D. Colors.
11. What is the main idea of the text
A. We should go for a run in winter.
B. Running really benefits us mentally.
C. We don’t need a lot of exercise.
D. Running on a treadmill is better than running outside.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现即使短时间的跑步也有益于人们的身心健康。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“But new research has found that even a super-quick run could have great health benefits. In fact, it seems just a 10-minute session will not only make us feel better, but also could actually improve brain health, too. (但新的研究发现，即使是超快跑也会对健康有很大的好处。事实上，10分钟的训练似乎不仅能让我们感觉更好，而且还能改善大脑健康)”可知，短时间的跑步是有益的。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“Researchers from University of Tsukuba in Japan asked participants to run on a treadmill (跑步机) for just 10 minutes. They then had to take a Stroop Color and Word Test which is used to measure reaction times in brain processing. (日本筑波大学的研究人员要求参与者在跑步机上跑10分钟。然后，他们必须接受Stroop颜色和文字测试，这是用来测量大脑处理过程中的反应时间)”可知，研究人员是通过做实验和对比受试者反应的时间来获得实验结果的。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“In other words, runners were found to have an increase in blood flow in the part of the brain that’s associated with dealing with functions and controlling mood (情绪). (换句话说，跑步者被发现大脑中与处理功能和控制情绪相关的部分血液流量增加)”推知，血液流量和我们的快乐有关。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其第一段的“But new research has found that even a super-quick run could have great health benefits. In fact, it seems just a 10-minute session will not only make us feel better, but also could actually improve brain health, too. Now, we all know that exercise can improve mental and physical health in many ways. (但新的研究发现，即使是超快跑也会对健康有很大的好处。事实上，10分钟的训练似乎不仅能让我们感觉更好，而且还能改善大脑健康。现在，我们都知道锻炼可以在许多方面改善身心健康)”可知，本文主要介绍了跑步对我们的身心都有好处。故选B。

In Woods Chan’s class at a high school in California, students chat with each other in Spanish, Arabic (阿拉伯语) and Mam, a Mayan language from Guatemala. The students have only been in the US for a few weeks or months. Many students were from different countries last year. Woods Chan became concerned when she started hearing the Spanish-speaking students laugh when their classmates spoke Mam or Arabic.
Woods Chan came up with an idea. She asked her students to take turns teaching a little bit of their home language each day. Students taught their partners how to count from 1 to 10, how to introduce themselves and how to say basic phrases or words like “Cool”. Then, they recorded themselves saying those phrases in short videos and wrote vocabulary words on the whiteboard.
Woods Chan saw the difference in her students. She said they grew more confident after seeing their own language on the whiteboard and hearing it in the videos. They started making friends with each other across cultural lines. Other students who were not in that class would come in and see something written in Mam on the whiteboard and say, “Hey, that’s Mam! I speak Mam!”
The project also helped students understand their partners better. Orlando, a 17-year-old student from El Salvador, said he never knew Arabic or Mam, even existed before he came to the US and heard his classmates talk. Now, he thinks it would be good for all students in his school to learn a little of their partners’ home languages. “When I first got here,” he said in Spanish, “I thought, ‘No one talks like me. I’m the only one, and I felt lonely.’ Now, I don’t feel so bad anymore.”
Knowledge of other languages can help Woods Chan’s students beyond the classroom, too. Languages like Mam are becoming more and more common in the US. Some Oakland graduates have gone on to become Mam-English interpreters (口译员) to help fill a lack of interpreters in all kinds of settings.
12. What made Woods Chan think of the idea
A. Some of her students making fun of other languages.
B. Her students hardly using their home languages.
C. Her students being interested in learning a new language.
D. Her students having difficulty communicating with each other.
13. What was the students’ feeling of seeing their home languages written on the whiteboard
A. Angry but accepting. B. Excited and proud.
C. Worried but supportive. D. Relaxed and creative.
14. What effect did Woods Chan’s project have on Orlando
A. It made him feel less lonely at school.
B. It encouraged him to get a job as an interpreter.
C. It helped him understand his home language better.
D. It enabled him to work better in foreign language classes.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. School Is Not the Only Place to Learn B. All Her Students Are Language Teachers
C. She Replies to Her Students’ Needs Quickly D. Language Is Not a Block to Communication
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。这篇文章讲述了一位高中老师Woods Chan让班里来自不同国家讲不同语言的学生们当小老师教同学们自己的母语，从而增强了孩子的自信心，促进了学生间文化，语言，情感交流的故事。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Woods Chan became concerned when she started hearing the Spanish-speaking students laugh when their classmates spoke Mam or Arabic. (当Woods Chan开始听到说西班牙语的学生在听到他们的同学说阿拉伯语或阿拉伯语时发出的笑声时，她开始担心起来)”可知，Woods Chan的学生嘲笑别人的语言使她想到了这个主意。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“She said they grew more confident after seeing their own language on the whiteboard and hearing it in the videos. (她说，他们在白板上看到自己的语言，在视频中听到自己的语言后，变得更加自信了)”可知，学生们变得自信和愿意交朋友了。以及第三段最后一句“Other students who were not in that class would come in and see something written in Mam on the whiteboard and say, "Hey, that’s Mam! I speak Mam!” (其他没有上过这门课的学生会进来，看到白板上用Mam语写的东西，然后说：“嘿，那是Mam语!我说Mam语!”)”可推知学生很兴奋。由此可知，学生们看到自己的母语写在黑板上感觉兴奋和自豪。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句““I thought, ‘No one talks like me. I’m the only one, and I felt lonely.’ Now, I don’t feel so bad anymore.” (我想“没有人像我这样说话。我感到很孤独”，现在，我不再感觉那么糟糕了)”可知，Woods Chan的项目让Orlando在学校不那么孤单了。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。这篇文章讲述了一位高中老师Woods Chan让班里来自不同国家讲不同语言的学生们当小老师教同学们自己的母语，从而增强了孩子的自信心，促进了学生间文化，语言，情感交流的故事。故B选项“她所有的学生都是语言老师”符合文章标题。故选B。

【20题详解】

【点睛】阅读理解之七选五解题方法
一、总体方法
先确定出题的位置；读题干，再读需要填入句子的上下句，画出关键词；读文章各段落，确定段落中心句和文章主题句；通读文章确定上下句和选项之间的逻辑关系。
二、根据出题位置的不同，说说各自不同的解题方法。
1、出题位置设在段首
1）查找同义词或其他相关的词，推断出主题句。
2）锁定关键词，然后在并列、转折、因果等选项中查找相关特征词。通常正确答案的最后一句与空白后的第一句在意思上是紧密衔接的。
2、出题位置在段落中
比较上下文的关键词来锁定答案
阅读各个空的前后句，标记关键词，阅读五个空白的前后句，并将前后句中的解题线索，即关键词标记下来。关键词包括句中的核心名词或名词词组（如带有形容词的名词词组），专有名词、时间数字、代词、连词等；阅读各个选项，尤其是选项的首句，标记关键词；比较并匹配上述两类关键词，确定答案；将确定的答案代入原文，看读起来是否通顺。
如第二小题，结合下文For example, someone who does a lot of sports may make friends with those who also run or swim a lot.（例如，做很多运动的人可能会和那些也经常跑步或游泳的人交朋友。）可知人们会和有跟自己相似兴趣的人做朋友，故E选项“人们经常呆在一起，因为他们有相似的兴趣。”符合上下文语境。故选E。
3、出题位置在段尾
这个时候，空白前的一句或两句是重点语句，大家要重点阅读以锁定关键词。
1） 要注意在选项中查找表示结果的、结论、总结等的关键词，如：therefore, as a result, thus, hence, in short, in a word等，另外大家也要知道，选项中也可以发现前文的同义词语。
2）如果与前文是转折或对比关系。大家就要注意在选项中寻找表示转折对比的关联词，同时注意选项中所讲内容是否与前文在同一主题上形成对立对比关系。
3）如果所选答案是引出下一段的内容
在选项中找不出与前文之间的关联，此时可考虑与下一段开头是否有一定的衔接。认真阅读下一段开头几句，看看是否与选项的最后一句紧密连接起来。

47. 阅读下面的材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Do you forget to bring your homework to school ” my sixth-grade math teacher asked. I nodded my head and said in a low voice, “Yes, sir.” What a mistake I had made! I had completed my math homework. But when I headed for school, I forgot to put it into my schoolbag. Now my homework is still lying on the desk at home.
“You will have a get a zero then,” math teacher said. I was shocked. I had never received a zero in a math class before. But the school had rules, and the teacher had to let everyone follow them. I was immediately worried about my final math average, which was based on my homework and the tests. Would I get a C or even a D at the end of the term If so, what should I do
My next class was a gym class. During that gym class, my mind was affected by the math homework and I was worried about my final math average. So I failed to devote my attention to my gym teacher, Ms. Brown’s direction. And clearly, I was sad. I guessed that Ms. Brown found there was something wrong with me. When it was near the end of the gym class, she walked to me.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为100左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
She sat down to comfort me.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
I felt relaxed and decided to work harder at math.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 She sat down to comfort me. “Are you okay ” she asked. I told her about my trouble. Then Ms. Brown said to me, “We all make mistakes.” She told me what happened to her several days ago. I was surprised that she also made mistakes since I had thought she was perfect. She told me the world didn’t end because I got a zero in a math class and encouraged me to study hard.
I felt relaxed and decided to work harder at math. In math classes, I paid more attention to the teacher’s lectures. After reaching home after school, I would do the math homework more carefully. And I left notes to remind me not to forget to bring my homework to school again. At the end of that term, based on my good daily performances and test scores, my final math average was an A. This experience taught me a lesson: as long as we learn from mistakes, we’re making progress.

I’m a seventeen-year-old boy preparing for my A Level exams at the end of the year. In the society where my peers and I live, we tend to accept the rat race values. As students, we want to get good grades so that we can get good jobs. I enjoy studying and have consistently received A’s in my classes. There was a year when I finished first in my class in the final exams. It was a great accomplishment.
Another one I am pleased with is that I managed to improve the relationship between Mum and Dad. Dad was a successful businessman who was rarely at home. Mum was a housewife who always felt bored and constantly nagged (唠叨) him to let her go to work. Their constant arguing bothered me, so I advised Dad that Mum would be better off with a part-time job. He agreed, and their relationship has improved since then.
My most proud achievement, however, is my successful work in the local old folks’ home. My grandparents had raised me since I was a child. I wept (哭泣) bitterly when they died. Unlike many of my classmates, I do not take part in my school’s community service to earn points. I enjoy my voluntary work and believe I’m contributing to a worthwhile cause. This is where I can help. I talk to the elderly, assist them with their daily life, and listen to their problems, glory days and the hardships they experienced.
Last year, I hosted a successful New Year party for the elderly and they enjoyed a great time. Many expressed a desire to attend another party the following year. When I reflect on my accomplishments, I’m especially proud of my service at the old folks’ home, so I hope to study social work at university and work as a social worker in the future. I wish to be more skilled in attending to the less fortunate as well as find great satisfaction in it.

It can be incredibly difficult to encourage ourselves to go for a run during winter, particularly when it’s wet and windy outside. But new research has found that even a super-quick run could have great health benefits. In fact, it seems that just a 10-minute session will not only make us feel better, but could actually improve brain health, too. Now, we all know that exercise can improve mental and physical health in many ways.
But when it comes to mental well-being, there’s been relatively little research done on the specific benefits of running, compared with other physical activities, such as cycling. So this was something put to the test during a recent study. Researchers from University of Tsukuba in Japan asked participants (参加者) to run on a treadmill (跑步机) for just 10 minutes. They then had to take a Stroop Color and Word Test which is used to measure reaction time in brain processing. Results showed there was a highest point in self-reported pleasure and an increase in degree of activity of the brain.
In other words, runners were found to have an increase in blood flow in the part of the brain that’s associated with dealing with functions and controlling mood (情绪). Researchers then compared these results to a similar study on cycling, which also showed improved cognition (认知), but no mood improvement. Therefore, it seems various types of exercise can make us feel differently.
The authors noted, “Given exercise is medicine, the effects of drugs differ depending on the type of drug, and different types of exercise such as running and cycling should be observed to have different effects on mental health and brain functions as well.”
So pushing ourselves to get outside for a run really will make us feel better, probably more than other fitness activities. And these findings show that we don’t necessarily need to do a lot of exercise to feel the benefit of it.
8. What did the new research find
A. Running fast benefits all of us.
B Running is the best exercise.
C. A short time run can be beneficial.
D. A healthy mind encourages us to run.
9. How did the researchers get the result
A. By using different drugs on participants.
B. By interviewing some sportsmen.
C. By collecting information on the Internet.
D. By doing experiments and comparisons.
10. Which is related to our happiness
A. Cycling. B. Medicine. C. Blood flow. D. Colors.
11. What is the main idea of the text
A. We should go for a run in winter.
B. Running really benefits us mentally.
C. We don’t need a lot of exercise.
D. Running on a treadmill is better than running outside.
D
In Woods Chan’s class at a high school in California, students chat with each other in Spanish, Arabic (阿拉伯语) and Mam, a Mayan language from Guatemala. The students have only been in the US for a few weeks or months. Many students were from different countries last year. Woods Chan became concerned when she started hearing the Spanish-speaking students laugh when their classmates spoke Mam or Arabic.
Woods Chan came up with an idea. She asked her students to take turns teaching a little bit of their home language each day. Students taught their partners how to count from 1 to 10, how to introduce themselves and how to say basic phrases or words like “Cool”. Then, they recorded themselves saying those phrases in short videos and wrote vocabulary words on the whiteboard.
Woods Chan saw the difference in her students. She said they grew more confident after seeing their own language on the whiteboard and hearing it in the videos. They started making friends with each other across cultural lines. Other students who were not in that class would come in and see something written in Mam on the whiteboard and say, “Hey, that’s Mam! I speak Mam!”
The project also helped students understand their partners better. Orlando, a 17-year-old student from El Salvador, said he never knew Arabic or Mam, even existed before he came to the US and heard his classmates talk. Now, he thinks it would be good for all students in his school to learn a little of their partners’ home languages. “When I first got here,” he said in Spanish, “I thought, ‘No one talks like me. I’m the only one, and I felt lonely.’ Now, I don’t feel so bad anymore.”
Knowledge of other languages can help Woods Chan’s students beyond the classroom, too. Languages like Mam are becoming more and more common in the US. Some Oakland graduates have gone on to become Mam-English interpreters (口译员) to help fill a lack of interpreters in all kinds of settings.
12. What made Woods Chan think of the idea
A. Some of her students making fun of other languages.
B. Her students hardly using their home languages.
C. Her students being interested in learning a new language.
D. Her students having difficulty communicating with each other.
13. What was the students’ feeling of seeing their home languages written on the whiteboard
A. Angry but accepting. B. Excited and proud.
C. Worried but supportive. D. Relaxed and creative.
14. What effect did Woods Chan’s project have on Orlando
A. It made him feel less lonely at school.
B. It encouraged him to get a job as an interpreter.
C. It helped him understand his home language better.
D. It enabled him to work better in foreign language classes.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. School Is Not the Only Place to Learn B. All Her Students Are Language Teachers
C She Replies to Her Students’ Needs Quickly D. Language Is Not a Block to Communication

But when I headed for school, I forgot to put it into my schoolbag. Now my homework is still lying on the desk at home.
“You will have a get a zero then,” math teacher said. I was shocked. I had never received a zero in a math class before. But the school had rules, and the teacher had to let everyone follow them. I was immediately worried about my final math average, which was based on my homework and the tests. Would I get a C or even a D at the end of the term If so, what should I do
My next class was a gym class. During that gym class, my mind was affected by the math homework and I was worried about my final math average.
