第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分)
第一节阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
A
If you are home-alone, or live alone, and somebody comes to the door, shout out “I got it” so that it seems like someone else is there with you and you are not alone. But actually before that, there are lots of preventive(预防的) actions to take.
Give your apartment a safety check
It’s a good idea to give your apartment a once-over for safety concerns—ideally before you even move in. Complete this safety checklist.
Can any of your valuables be seen from the street
Can you see who’s at the door without opening it
Do you have all your mail held at the post office when you travel
Have all the locks of your doors been changed since you moved in
Become friends with your neighbors
If you’re shy, then you’d probably prefer anything else to chatting with neighbors. But make an effort to be friendly. In one way or another, your neighbors will be more willing to lend a hand to a friend than they are to help out a stranger in times of trouble.
Be smart about spare keys
Thieves and other illegal types know exactly where to check for spare keys.
So don’t think you’re being clever by hiding them in the mailbox, or underneath a carpet. Instead, you had better leave them to a friend or trusted neighbor.
Always lock the door
Lock your doors, every single time. Even if you’re just going to the garbage dumpster(垃圾大铁桶) quickly, or only stepping inside to catch something you forgot.
It may seem like overkill — especially if you live in a relatively safe district. But it only takes that one moment for someone to steal in.
1. Why does the author advise you to shout “I got it” in Paragraph 1
A. To protect yourself. B. To answer the door.
C. To call out loudly. D. To welcome the guests.
2. What is the author’s opinion about spare keys
A. Hide spare keys in the mailbox.
B. Take all the keys with you if possible.
C. Leave the keys to someone you trusted.
D. Have your keys ready as you leave.
3. What are the right preventive actions
① Never change the locks.
② Close the door in time.
③ Make friends with neighbors.
④ Put spare keys under the carpet.
⑤ Keep valuables seen from the street.
⑥ Have a safety check about the apartment.
A. ①②④ B. ②③⑤
C. ③④⑥ D. ②③⑥
【答案】1. A 2. C 3. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如果你是一个人独居，为了安全，所要注意的事项（预防措施）。

细节理解题。根据第一个小标题下的Can any of your valuables be seen from the street Have all the locks of your doors been changed since you moved in 可知，在街上不能看到你的贵重物品，搬进新地方要换所有的门锁；根据第二个小标题下的In one way or another, your neighbors will be more willing to lend a hand to a friend than they are to help out a stranger in times of trouble.可知，要和你的邻居交朋友；根据第三个小标题下的Instead, you had better leave them to a friend or trusted neighbor.可知，要把备用钥匙留给你信任的人；根据第四个小标题下的Lock your doors, every single time.可知，要及时锁门。故选D。
B
An 114 kilograms mother, Cacia Griggs, was ashamed into losing weight after crushing her daughter, four-year-old Isabelle 's bed while reading her a bedtime story.
Just one year later she has lost 50 kilograms, dropped to a size 10, and even was employed by her dream company.
One night, having asked her 29-year-old husband to carry Isabelle up to bed because she couldn't fit through the stair gate, Cacia followed them upstairs and lay down on the edge of the bed with her daughter to read her a story.
“I heard a loud snap(噼啪声),” she said. “I’d broken the entire side beam of her bed because I was overweight. I was upset.”
On her first family holiday with Chris and Isabelle in Turkey last year, Cacia had a similar moment when she couldn't fit the plane seatbelt around her.
Cacia began the Cambridge Weight Plan in June 2011, changing her high-calorie diet into soups, shakes and bars. In August this year, Cacia reached her goal weight and dropped from a size 24 to a size 10.
“My weight began to drop off,” she said. “In no time at all I was wearing smaller clothes and was over the moon the first time I brought a size 16, I couldn't believe it fitted.”
Cacia says the best thing about losing the weight is being able to lie with her daughter again on her bed instead of sitting on the floor next to her

If you could have one superpower, what would it be
Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds, see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly, but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.
Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.
They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power to make a difference in the lives of others.
We’re not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor. Your lives are busy enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams. But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’t be a bystander. Get involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older. But why not start now
Our own experience working together on health, development, and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives. It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.
8. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to

10. What does the author stress in Paragraph 5

D. Trying your best to help the poor.
11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. The author believes the lives of the poorest will get better.
B. Much more progress will be made in the near future.
C. The work on health is the most valuable experience.
D. People’s efforts have been materially rewarded.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇论说文。本文以虚拟语气的问句形式开头，鼓励人们奉献自己的一些时间和精力去帮助别人，最穷人的生活将会变得更好。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds, see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly, but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.可知，梦想着能读懂别人心思，看穿墙，或者拥有超能力，这些可能听起来很荒唐，但是实际上它是你生活的价值的核心。所以通过上下文语境可以判断出，划线词的意思是“你的生活价值”故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.可知每天在我们的工作中，我们会受到一些人的鼓舞，他们在做一些特别的事情来改善世界。所以故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’t be a bystander. Get involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older.可知，但是我们认为，当你把一些时间和精力投入到比自己更大的事情上时，你可以过上更有精力的的生活。找到一个你感兴趣的问题并去了解更多。志愿者或者其它，如果可以的话，为一项事业捐一点钱。无论你做什么，不要做旁观者。参与进来。随着你的成长，你会为别人的生活带来影响。所以判断出作者在第五段强调，要提升自己，行动起来帮助别人。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.可知，它改变了我们的身份，并继续让我们对未来几年最贫困人口的生活状况的将改善持乐观态度。由此判断出作者相信穷人的生活将会变得更好。故选A。
【点睛】推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，做出一定的推理判断，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中的某一句话，也可能是某几句话，所以，推理判断题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案：即对原文某一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写或综合。推理判断题的题干中通常含有infer, suggest, imply, conclude indicate等标志性词语。这种题型主要包括态度观点推断题、写作意图推断题、文章出处判断题和猜测想象推断题等。比如第7小题就是推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.可知，它改变了我们的身份，并继续让我们对未来几年最贫困人口的生活状况的将改善持乐观态度。由此判断出作者相信穷人的生活将会变得更好。故选A。
D
A shark attacked a 14-year-old girl near a Florida beach on Saturday, though a surfer tried to save her. The surfer pulled the girl from bloody water and frightened the shark away with his fists (拳头).
Can sharks really smell blood in the water Yes. Sharks have a good sense of smell，and blood happens to be a very attractive smell. Sharks also use sight and hearing to discover their food. In particular, hungry sharks like to hear the sounds which are made by swimming fish. They also look for something bright. Attacks on people can sometimes be a case of mistaken recognition. Sometimes, a shark could confuse shining stones for food.
The sharks’ eyes, ears, and nose are all near their mouth. But sharks also search for their food with sensory receptors (感受器). These receptors can feel any movement in the water. When a shark gets very close to a food, it can use electroreceptive organs (电觉器官), which sit the wall of little holes on the shark’s nose. Living things in salty seawater produce a weak electrical field (电磁场）that the shark can feel at a short distance, so it allows the shark to find out creatures that bury themselves in the sea floor. Muscle (肌肉)movements also produce little electrical fields that a shark can feel.
The surfer who tried to save the girl said he protected himself by frightening away the shark with his fists. Is that a good idea Some experts think frightening away a shark with fists should only be the last choice. It won’t be wise for you to stay still in water. Swimming away rapidly seems to be a better choice. If you can’t swim away right away, hit the shark on the face or nose—where it has a high concentration of sensory receptors like humans—to drive off your attacker and give you enough time to escape. When you are beside a shark’s face, try sticking your finger in its eyes.
12. Which of the following helps sharks search for food
A. Swimming quietly. B. A special kind of blood.
C. Working as a team. D. A good sense of smell.
13. What can we infer from paragraph 3
A. Sharks can feel movements from other creatures in seawater.
B. Sharks use sensory receptor more than smell to search for food.
C. Sharks can’t feel weak muscle movements from other creatures.
D. Sharks can’t find and attack creatures hiding in the sea floor.
14. What are we advised to do when we are attacked by a shark
A. Shout loudly and frighten it away. B. Touch the shark’s face gently.
C. Get away from it immediately. D. Stay still to pretend to be dead.
15. Which section of a website is the text most probably taken from
A. Environment. B. Science. C. Sport. D. Health.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了鲨鱼是如何寻找食物和遇到鲨鱼攻击人时应如何应对。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Some experts think frightening away a shark with fists should only be the last choice.(鲨鱼真的能闻到水里的血吗 是的。鲨鱼的嗅觉很灵敏，而血的气味非常吸引人。)”可知，良好的嗅觉帮助鲨鱼寻找食物。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Living things in salty seawater produce a weak electrical field (电磁场)that the shark can feel at a short distance, so it allows the shark to find out creatures that bury themselves in the sea floor. (海水中的生物会产生一种微弱的电场，鲨鱼在很短的距离内就能感觉到，所以它能让鲨鱼发现埋在海底的生物。)”可推断，鲨鱼能感觉到海水中其他生物的运动。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Some experts think frightening away a shark with fists should only be the last choice. It won’t be wise for you to stay still in water. Swimming away rapidly seems to be a better choice. (一些专家认为，用拳头吓走鲨鱼应该是最后的选择。你呆在水里不动是不明智的。迅速游开似乎是一个更好的选择。)”可知，当我们被鲨鱼攻击时，我们应该立即远离它。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了鲨鱼是如何寻找食物和遇到鲨鱼攻击人时应如何应对，所以是一篇科普说明文。从而推断，本文最可能来自网站的科学部分。故选B。
第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)

16题详解】
根据上一句“With the cold weather drawing nearer, few people will choose swimming as a daily or usual activity.(随着寒冷天气的临近，很少有人会选择游泳作为日常和经常性的活动)”和下一句“Here come the reasons.(原因如下)”及下文中列出的几点原因“Good for your brain.(对大脑有好处)”、“Work your muscles.(锻炼肌肉)”和“Lift your spirits.(振奋精神)”可知，下文主要解释了冬泳的好处，故空处与上一句应为转折关系，表明冬泳是有好处的，故选项G.

Swimming also works your abs (腹肌)and will reduce your waist line.(游泳也能锻炼你的腹肌，还能缩小你的腰围)补充说明了游泳还能锻炼腹肌，缩小腰围，承接上文；下一句“So along with building fitness, it is a wonderful full body exercise.(所以除了健身，它还是一种很好的全身锻炼)”对游泳的锻炼功效给出了总结，语意衔接合理。故选D。
【19题详解】
根据下一句“They can cause a positive feeling into your body which makes you happy.(它们可以给你的身体带来一种积极的感觉，让你快乐)”可知，空处应提到了某种可以让人感到快乐的物质。由此可知，选项E. Exercise gives off chemicals in your body called endorphins (内啡肽).(运动在你体内释放一种叫做内啡肽的化学物质)符合语境，下一句中的“They”指代选项E中的“chemicals”。故选E。
【20题详解】
根据第二、三、四段主题句可知，空处应为祈使句，为段落主题句，故答案选自A或B。根据下文中“While swimming is an individual sport, it is also very social. You can meet people from all walks of life when swimming. (虽然游泳是一项个人运动，但它也是一项社交运动。在游泳的时候，你可以遇到各行各业的人)”可知，本段主要说明了游泳可以结识很多朋友。由此可知，选项B. Meet new people(结识新人)符合语境，适合作本段主题句。故选B。

【37题详解】
考查虚拟语气。句意：哈佛大学的研究人员建议人们用少量坚果代替不健康的零食，以减缓体重增加。分析句子结构可知，宾语从句缺谓语动词，suggest表示“建议”后跟宾语从句时，从句需用虚拟语气，谓语用should+动词原形，should 可以省略。故填replace或should replace。

Finally, the bell rang. “Don’t forget to practice your class presentation at home!” Miss Bella cried as everyone started talking and packing their school bags. Jessy felt sick. She hated having to read aloud in class. She was sure everyone got really bored listening to her. Once, when Jessy was reading out her holiday diary, Lee was even looking at his watch, a silver and blue one which seemed just magical.
Jessy watched Lee walk ahead of her as they left school. He seemed so clever, and he had a certain so rt of shining confidence. He was just one of those people who were good at everything. Jessy sighed. As she turned the corner, she saw Lee’s watch lying right in the middle of the path.
Jessy knew she should just pick it up and return it to him, but she didn’t want to run after him. Jessy bent down quickly, picked up the watch and ran home. On arriving home, Jessy put it on almost without thinking. She was surprised it fitted so well. She walked to the mirror and started practicing her speech. Words just flooded out of her. “I’m going to talk about swimming. I have been lucky. I’ve won lots of competitions. But when I’m in a race, I’m not really thinking about winning. I’m just loving the feeling of being in the water...”Jessy laughed with excitement. She walked across the room. She suddenly seemed to have a certain so rt of confidence. Turning back to the mirror, Jessy saw a flash of light from the watch in the glass. The flashes of silver seemed almost magical. So maybe Lee’s watch really did have something magic about it.
The next day, as the lesson began, Miss Bella asked who was going to be brave and go first. Nobody moved. Jessy slowly raised her arm. Before Miss Bella could say anything, there was a shout from behind. “She’s stolen my watch!” Lee said angrily, “It went missing at school yesterday.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Everybody was fixing their eyes on Jessy, waiting for an explanation.

Miss Bella smiled and asked the class to listen to Jessy’s speech first.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Everybody was fixing their eyes on Jessy, waiting for an explanation. A flush of embarrassment came to her cheeks, making Jessy biting her lips. Dead silence suddenly fell. Then came Miss Bella’s voice, “Why is Lee’s watch on your wrist ” Jessy hesitated for a while and decided to tell the truth. However, on second thoughts of the well-prepared speech and the magic of the watch, she changed her mind. “Miss Bella, could I give the speech first and then explain ” She made a request in a tone of begging.
Miss Bella smiled and asked the class to listen to Jessy’s speech first. Jessy put away her fright, took a deep breath, and made for the platform. Casting a glance at the sea of faces watching her, Jessy cleared her throat and began her speech. “I’m going to talk about swimming...” Word began to flood out of her. “What a terrific speech.” Whispers went around the classroom, and even Miss Bella nodded with approval. Immediately Jessy finished her speech, a storm of applause erupted from the class. Relieved, Jessy told everyone the truth, and especially the magic of the watch. She returned the watch to Lee as she eventually realized the real source of confidence.

第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
A
If you are home-alone, or live alone, and somebody comes to the door, shout out “I got it” so that it seems like someone else is there with you and you are not alone. But actually before that, there are lots of preventive(预防的) actions to take.
Give your apartment a safety check
It’s a good idea to give your apartment a once-over for safety concerns—ideally before you even move in. Complete this safety checklist.
Can any of your valuables be seen from the street
Can you see who’s at the door without opening it
Do you have all your mail held at the post office when you travel
Have all the locks of your doors been changed since you moved in
Become friends with your neighbors
If you’re shy, then you’d probably prefer anything else to chatting with neighbors. But make an effort to be friendly. In one way or another, your neighbors will be more willing to lend a hand to a friend than they are to help out a stranger in times of trouble.
Be smart about spare keys
Thieves and other illegal types know exactly where to check for spare keys.
So don’t think you’re being clever by hiding them in the mailbox, or underneath a carpet. Instead, you had better leave them to a friend or trusted neighbor.
Always lock the door
Lock your doors, every single time. Even if you’re just going to the garbage dumpster(垃圾大铁桶) quickly, or only stepping inside to catch something you forgot.
It may seem like overkill — especially if you live in a relatively safe district. But it only takes that one moment for someone to steal in.
1. Why does the author advise you to shout “I got it” in Paragraph 1
A. To protect yourself. B. To answer the door.
C. To call out loudly. D. To welcome the guests.
2. What is the author’s opinion about spare keys
A. Hide spare keys in the mailbox.
B. Take all the keys with you if possible.
C. Leave the keys to someone you trusted.
D. Have your keys ready as you leave.
3. What are the right preventive actions
① Never change the locks.
② Close the door in time.
③ Make friends with neighbors.
④ Put spare keys under the carpet.
⑤ Keep valuables seen from the street.
⑥ Have a safety check about the apartment.
A. ①②④ B. ②③⑤
C. ③④⑥ D. ②③⑥

An 114 kilograms mother, Cacia Griggs, was ashamed into losing weight after crushing her daughter, four-year-old Isabelle 's bed while reading her a bedtime story.
Just one year later she has lost 50 kilograms, dropped to a size 10, and even was employed by her dream company.
One night, having asked her 29-year-old husband to carry Isabelle up to bed because she couldn't fit through the stair gate, Cacia followed them upstairs and lay down on the edge of the bed with her daughter to read her a story.
“I heard a loud snap(噼啪声),” she said. “I’d broken the entire side beam of her bed because I was overweight. I was upset.”
On her first family holiday with Chris and Isabelle in Turkey last year, Cacia had a similar moment when she couldn't fit the plane seatbelt around her.
Cacia began the Cambridge Weight Plan in June 2011, changing her high-calorie diet into soups, shakes and bars. In August this year, Cacia reached her goal weight and dropped from a size 24 to a size 10.
“My weight began to drop off,” she said. “In no time at all I was wearing smaller clothes and was over the moon the first time I brought a size 16, I couldn't believe it fitted.”
Cacia says the best thing about losing the weight is being able to lie with her daughter again on her bed instead of sitting on the floor next to her.
4. Why did Cacia determine to lose weight
A. She couldn’t read the stories for her daughter.
B. She crushed her daughter’s bed.
C. She couldn’t fit the plane seatbelt around her.
D. She couldn’t fit through the stair gate.
5. When Cacia realized she snapped her daughter’s bed, she felt __________.
A. pleased B. unbelievable C. curious D. unhappy
6. Cacia lost her weight __________.
A. by doing some exercise B. by going on a diet
C. by having a balanced diet D. by taking some drugs
7. What’s the best title for the passage
A. A mother’s Love B. A crashed bed
C. A way to lose weight D. A heathy diet
C
If you could have one superpower, what would it be
Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds, see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly, but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.
Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.
They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power to make a difference in the lives of others.
We’re not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor. Your lives are busy enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams. But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’t be a bystander. Get involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older. But why not start now
Our own experience working together on health, development, and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives. It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.
8. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. Your life style. B. Your life value.
C. Your trouble in life. D. Your life experience.
9. Why does the author say they are inspired every day
A. They possess different kinds of superpowers.
B. They have got the power to change the world.
C. Some people around them are making the world better.
D. There are many powerful people in their life and work.
10. What does the author stress in Paragraph 5
A. Learning more and contributing more to a cause.
B. Rising above self and acting to help others.
C. Working hard to get a bigger opportunity.
D. Trying your best to help the poor.
11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. The author believes the lives of the poorest will get better.

C. The work on health is the most valuable experience.
D. People’s efforts have been materially rewarded.

A shark attacked a 14-year-old girl near a Florida beach on Saturday, though a surfer tried to save her. The surfer pulled the girl from bloody water and frightened the shark away with his fists (拳头).
Can sharks really smell blood in the water Yes. Sharks have a good sense of smell，and blood happens to be a very attractive smell. Sharks also use sight and hearing to discover their food. In particular, hungry sharks like to hear the sounds which are made by swimming fish. They also look for something bright. Attacks on people can sometimes be a case of mistaken recognition. Sometimes, a shark could confuse shining stones for food.
The sharks’ eyes, ears, and nose are all near their mouth. But sharks also search for their food with sensory receptors (感受器). These receptors can feel any movement in the water. When a shark gets very close to a food, it can use electroreceptive organs (电觉器官), which sit the wall of little holes on the shark’s nose. Living things in salty seawater produce a weak electrical field (电磁场）that the shark can feel at a short distance, so it allows the shark to find out creatures that bury themselves in the sea floor. Muscle (肌肉)movements also produce little electrical fields that a shark can feel.
The surfer who tried to save the girl said he protected himself by frightening away the shark with his fists. Is that a good idea Some experts think frightening away a shark with fists should only be the last choice. It won’t be wise for you to stay still in water. Swimming away rapidly seems to be a better choice. If you can’t swim away right away, hit the shark on the face or nose—where it has a high concentration of sensory receptors like humans—to drive off your attacker and give you enough time to escape. When you are beside a shark’s face, try sticking your finger in its eyes.
12. Which of the following helps sharks search for food
A. Swimming quietly. B. A special kind of blood.
C. Working as a team. D. A good sense of smell.
13. What can we infer from paragraph 3
A. Sharks can feel movements from other creatures in seawater.
B. Sharks use sensory receptor more than smell to search for food.
C. Sharks can’t feel weak muscle movements from other creatures.
D. Sharks can’t find and attack creatures hiding in the sea floor.
14. What are we advised to do when we are attacked by a shark
A. Shout loudly and frighten it away. B. Touch the shark’s face gently.
C. Get away from it immediately. D. Stay still to pretend to be dead.

With the cold weather drawing nearer, few people will choose swimming as a daily or usual activity. ____16____ Here come the reasons.
Good for your brain.
Swimming is one of the best activities you can do all year round, which benefits your body and your mind. Swimming has been found to increase blood flow to the brain, which leads to more oxygen. ____17____
Work your muscles.
Every time you swim, it is like doing a mini-resistance workout. Each kicks and pull works your muscles more than you could imagine, especially your arms, shoulders and gluteus — the muscles that are inactive all day when you’re sitting at your desk. _____18_____ So along with building fitness, it is a wonderful full body exercise.
Lift your spirits.
_____19_____ They can cause a positive feeling into your body which makes you happy. Swimming has been shown to reduce stress and tension. The repetition, movement and the breathing can help you to relax , and that’s why swimming is also regarded as a relaxing exercise.
_____20_____
While swimming is an individual sport, it is also very social. You can meet people from all walks of life when swimming. Have a chat in the lap pool, join a swimming club or get involved in social water sports to get to know people in your community. Besides, the great thing about swimming is that you can do it — rain or shine. Although your backyard pool, the river or beach cools down over winter, most inside swimming pools run heated pools year round, so you’ve got no excuse to stop swimming.
A. Benefit your body.
B Meet new people.
C. These chemicals can control your thought and action.
D. Swimming also works your abs (腹肌) and will reduce your waist line.
E. Exercise gives off chemicals in your body called endorphins (内啡肽).
F. And that means you’re experiencing better memory and sharp mind.
G. However, swimming in winter is of great benefit in cold days.

Finally, the bell rang. “Don’t forget to practice your class presentation at home!” Miss Bella cried as everyone started talking and packing their school bags. Jessy felt sick. She hated having to read aloud in class. She was sure everyone got really bored listening to her. Once, when Jessy was reading out her holiday diary, Lee was even looking at his watch, a silver and blue one which seemed just magical.
Jessy watched Lee walk ahead of her as they left school. He seemed so clever, and he had a certain so rt of shining confidence. He was just one of those people who were good at everything. Jessy sighed. As she turned the corner, she saw Lee’s watch lying right in the middle of the path.
Jessy knew she should just pick it up and return it to him, but she didn’t want to run after him. Jessy bent down quickly, picked up the watch and ran home. On arriving home, Jessy put it on almost without thinking. She was surprised it fitted so well. She walked to the mirror and started practicing her speech. Words just flooded out of her. “I’m going to talk about swimming. I have been lucky. I’ve won lots of competitions. But when I’m in a race, I’m not really thinking about winning. I’m just loving the feeling of being in the water...”Jessy laughed with excitement. She walked across the room. She suddenly seemed to have a certain so rt of confidence. Turning back to the mirror, Jessy saw a flash of light from the watch in the glass. The flashes of silver seemed almost magical. So maybe Lee’s watch really did have something magic about it.
The next day, as the lesson began, Miss Bella asked who was going to be brave and go first. Nobody moved. Jessy slowly raised her arm. Before Miss Bella could say anything, there was a shout from behind. “She’s stolen my watch!” Lee said angrily, “It went missing at school yesterday.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Everybody was fixing their eyes on Jessy, waiting for an explanation.

Miss Bella smiled and asked the class to listen to Jessy’s speech first.
