Ⅰ.阅读理解(限时7分钟)
(2025·广西联考)
At the end of a perfect July afternoon in 2016,Raymond awoke from an accident only to find that he'd damaged his neck and could no longer walk or fully use his hands.
But that's just the beginning of Raymond's story.A year later,frustrated with the lack of rehab (康复) resources available for people like himself in New Orleans,the former broadcast engineer decided that his hometown needed an adaptive gym to cater for those with injuries and disabilities.Based on the need,Raymond financed the establishment of Split Second Fitness in 2021,with specially designed workout equipment and therapy programs that allow clients to grow stronger without the aim of making money.
The inspiration for Split Second Fitness came to Raymond as he spent three months at a state-of-the-art rehab center in Sacramento,which redefined his understanding of recovery.“I knew I had to get back home and figure out how to do that,” says the natural-born net-worker,who spent three years raising funds and learning how to run an organization.
Seated bikes help move disabled users' legs; yoga instructors help stroke survivors increase flexibility and range of motion; mental health experts facilitate the hard transition to a new way of living.“Anybody's life can change in a split second like mine did,” explains Raymond.“ What our organization is really centered around is ‘How do we give you hope?’ and ‘How can we help you transform that hope into action steps for you to create a better tomorrow?’”
“The aim is to increase the quality of life of those with a disability,” he says.“ Because if I can give you something to look forward to,it will help you get out of the painful process and help you get back on track to a happy and healthy life.” Raymond,who insists he's just getting started,says that he plans to open similar gyms across the nation.“I want to be remembered as someone who moved the needle on disability advocacy issues.”
1.Which statement fits Split Second Fitness?( )
A.It is open to everyone.
B.It is made up of many gyms.
C.It is funded by TV programs.
D.It is run on a non-profit basis.
2.What inspired Raymond to set up Split Second Fitness?( )
A.A live broadcast.
B.A rehab experience.
C.A request from a fitness center.
D.A suggestion from a former workmate.
3.What can we learn about Split Second Fitness from paragraph 4?( )
A.Its goal and mission.
B.Its facilities and staff.
C.Its background and change.
D.Its challenges and difficulties.
4.What is the best title for the text?( )
A.Life with a Disability: A Painful Process
B.Hope in Motion: A Road to Self-discovery
C.Gyms: Making You Healthier and Stronger
D.Instructors: Helping You Get Back on Track

Good health is the most important thing in life,outranking money,education and career.But good health isn't a gift. 1 .If you're feeling a bit stuck on your New Year's resolutions,we've got tips.
Embrace optimism
2 .Researchers found there's a strong link between optimism and healthy behaviors.Optimistic people tend to have specific goals and the confidence to reach them.Even if you have a tendency to see the glass half empty,optimism can be learned by imagining your best possible self.Practicing optimism may make you better at it and help you reach your goals.
3
If you aim to eat better or drink less,your chances of success are higher if the people around you are on board too.People are more likely to reach body weight goals and maintain weight loss if they're not alone.And our moods can be influenced too.So it's helpful to surround yourself with like-minded people and make positive changes in live.
Make small changes in habits
It's easy to wish for the new fitness breakthrough that can help us achieve great health. 4 .It's believed that these six habits are tied to a reduced risk of everything from heart disease to dementia: good sleep,eating well,staying active,limiting alcohol,cutting sedentary (久坐不动的) screen time and developing friendships and social connections.A recent study found people who followed most of these habits cut the risk of depression by more than 50%.
Say no to more things
Time is our most precious resource. 5 .If we live an average life span (寿命),we're on this planet for only about 4,000 weeks.That means every day is very precious if we're serious about accomplishing new tricks.Do you actually want to commit to starting now?If so,ask yourself this: What can I say no to today to clear the time to accomplish my goal
A.Find a group
B.Reset your mind
C.If you begin with a slow start this year,be positive
D.We need to set the goals that are right and suitable for us
E.We have to work for it and the older we get,the more challenges arise
F.To make time for something new,we've got to stop doing something else
G.But the reality is that our daily practice shapes our health a lot more than we might realize

(2025·福建漳州模拟)
A few weeks ago,my sister was going through her old coats and vests(背心),seeing what was no longer needed.Although she was still in junior high school,she found ways here and there to make some extra money for her holiday shopping.
She found two vests in like-new condition and asked if I would list them in our local Facebook yard sale group.She set the price at $7 each and it wasn't long before someone replied,wanting to buy them.
The buyer replied in a short message with broken English; it was obvious that Spanish was her native language.After a few messages back and forth,she revealed that she couldn't drive to my house to pick up the vests because she lived on the other side of town,but asked if I would be willing to ship the vests to her instead.
I hesitated.The last week of school was so crazy busy.I barely had enough time to get from place to place,much less figure out how to wrap up these heavy vests and ship them out.I was feeling overwhelmed trying to get everything accomplished and this one extra task seemed like that straw that would break the camel's back.
She must have sensed my hesitation as she sent another message offering to send me a money order(汇票) to pay for the vests and the shipping costs.
A money order.
I literally froze when I read her message.It was obvious this woman wanted these items,probably for a Christmas gift for a child or grandchild.I knew if she took the time to get a money order and then mailed it to me and if I waited to get the money order and then shipped the vests to her,there was a really good chance they would not arrive in time for Christmas morning.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
That's when I heard the whisper on my heart: “Give her the vests for free.”

(2025·广西联考)
At the end of a perfect July afternoon in 2016,Raymond awoke from an accident only to find that he'd damaged his neck and could no longer walk or fully use his hands.
But that's just the beginning of Raymond's story.A year later,frustrated with the lack of rehab (康复) resources available for people like himself in New Orleans,the former broadcast engineer decided that his hometown needed an adaptive gym to cater for those with injuries and disabilities.Based on the need,Raymond financed the establishment of Split Second Fitness in 2021,with specially designed workout equipment and therapy programs that allow clients to grow stronger without the aim of making money.
The inspiration for Split Second Fitness came to Raymond as he spent three months at a state-of-the-art rehab center in Sacramento,which redefined his understanding of recovery.“I knew I had to get back home and figure out how to do that,” says the natural-born net-worker,who spent three years raising funds and learning how to run an organization.
Seated bikes help move disabled users' legs; yoga instructors help stroke survivors increase flexibility and range of motion; mental health experts facilitate the hard transition to a new way of living.“Anybody's life can change in a split second like mine did,” explains Raymond.“ What our organization is really centered around is ‘How do we give you hope?’ and ‘How can we help you transform that hope into action steps for you to create a better tomorrow?’”
“The aim is to increase the quality of life of those with a disability,” he says.“ Because if I can give you something to look forward to,it will help you get out of the painful process and help you get back on track to a happy and healthy life.” Raymond,who insists he's just getting started,says that he plans to open similar gyms across the nation.“I want to be remembered as someone who moved the needle on disability advocacy issues.”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Raymond在面对重大意外时,通过建立适应性健身房,帮助自己和他人重新发现自我和希望的故事。

Good health is the most important thing in life,outranking money,education and career.But good health isn't a gift. 1 .If you're feeling a bit stuck on your New Year's resolutions,we've got tips.
Embrace optimism
2 .Researchers found there's a strong link between optimism and healthy behaviors.Optimistic people tend to have specific goals and the confidence to reach them.Even if you have a tendency to see the glass half empty,optimism can be learned by imagining your best possible self.Practicing optimism may make you better at it and help you reach your goals.
3
If you aim to eat better or drink less,your chances of success are higher if the people around you are on board too.People are more likely to reach body weight goals and maintain weight loss if they're not alone.And our moods can be influenced too.So it's helpful to surround yourself with like-minded people and make positive changes in live.
Make small changes in habits
It's easy to wish for the new fitness breakthrough that can help us achieve great health. 4 .It's believed that these six habits are tied to a reduced risk of everything from heart disease to dementia: good sleep,eating well,staying active,limiting alcohol,cutting sedentary (久坐不动的) screen time and developing friendships and social connections.A recent study found people who followed most of these habits cut the risk of depression by more than 50%.
Say no to more things
Time is our most precious resource. 5 .If we live an average life span (寿命),we're on this planet for only about 4,000 weeks.That means every day is very precious if we're serious about accomplishing new tricks.Do you actually want to commit to starting now?If so,ask yourself this: What can I say no to today to clear the time to accomplish my goal
A.Find a group
B.Reset your mind
C.If you begin with a slow start this year,be positive
D.We need to set the goals that are right and suitable for us
E.We have to work for it and the older we get,the more challenges arise
F.To make time for something new,we've got to stop doing something else
G.But the reality is that our daily practice shapes our health a lot more than we might realize
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了身体健康是人生中最重要的事,并为提高我们的身体健康提出了几点建议。
1.E [根据上文“Good health is the most important thing in life,outranking money,education and career.But good health isn't a gift.”以及后文“If you're feeling a bit stuck on your New Year's resolutions,we've got tips.”可知,E项内容承接上文,说明“health isn't a gift”的原因。故E选项符合语境。]
2.C [根据本段后文可知,本段主要是关于乐观有助于实现目标,C选项中positive对应后文Optimistic。故C选项符合语境。]
3.A [根据本段内容可知,本段的主旨是找其他志同道合的人一起会更容易实现目标,故A选项符合语境。]
4.G [根据上文“It's easy to wish for the new fitness breakthrough that can help us achieve great health.”以及后文“It's believed that these six habits are tied to a reduced risk of everything from heart disease to dementia: good sleep,eating well,staying active,limiting alcohol,cutting sedentary screen time and developing friendships and social connections.”可知,锻炼带来的影响不止保持健康,还有其他方面的好处。故G项符合语境。]
5.F [根据上文“Time is our most precious resource.”以及本段后文可知,本段的建议是充分利用时间,腾出时间来完成自己的目标。故F选项符合语境。]

1.is [考查动词时态和主谓一致。who引导非限制性定语从句,be动词作主句谓语,描述客观状态,用一般现在时,主语是Zhang Guimei为第三人称单数。故填is。]
2.mountainous [考查词性转换。修饰名词areas应用形容词作定语。故填mountainous。]
3.out [考查固定短语。drop out of school意为“辍学”。故填out。]
4.generations [考查名词的数。根据上文three可知,应用名词复数形式。故填generations。]
5.and [考查连词。根据句意可知,“changing the destiny of the girls in the mountain”和“lifting them out of poverty”是并列关系,应用并列连词and连接。]
6.whose [考查定语从句。引导定语从句,先行词是“Her report”,在从句中作定语修饰title,故填whose。]
7.having sponsored [考查非谓语动词。此处“Lijiang and Huaping governments”与sponsor为主动关系,且先于谓语动词之前完成,用having done形式。故填having sponsored。]
8.born [考查非谓语动词。此处是非谓语动词作后置定语,bear和逻辑主语school之间是被动关系,用过去分词形式作后置定语。故填born。]
9.to arrive [考查非谓语动词。此处是固定句型:主语+be+序数词+名词+to do意为“第几个做某事的人/物”,不定式作后置定语。故填to arrive。]

(2025·福建漳州模拟)
A few weeks ago,my sister was going through her old coats and vests(背心),seeing what was no longer needed.Although she was still in junior high school,she found ways here and there to make some extra money for her holiday shopping.
She found two vests in like-new condition and asked if I would list them in our local Facebook yard sale group.She set the price at $7 each and it wasn't long before someone replied,wanting to buy them.
The buyer replied in a short message with broken English; it was obvious that Spanish was her native language.After a few messages back and forth,she revealed that she couldn't drive to my house to pick up the vests because she lived on the other side of town,but asked if I would be willing to ship the vests to her instead.
I hesitated.The last week of school was so crazy busy.I barely had enough time to get from place to place,much less figure out how to wrap up these heavy vests and ship them out.I was feeling overwhelmed trying to get everything accomplished and this one extra task seemed like that straw that would break the camel's back.
She must have sensed my hesitation as she sent another message offering to send me a money order(汇票) to pay for the vests and the shipping costs.
A money order.
I literally froze when I read her message.It was obvious this woman wanted these items,probably for a Christmas gift for a child or grandchild.I knew if she took the time to get a money order and then mailed it to me and if I waited to get the money order and then shipped the vests to her,there was a really good chance they would not arrive in time for Christmas morning.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
That's when I heard the whisper on my heart: “Give her the vests for free.”

【参考范文】
That's when I heard the whisper on my heart: “Give her the vests for free.” Without a second thought,I responded back,inquiring her mailing address.Upon her request for payment,I gently declined,offering to send them for free.Out poured her appreciation for such kindness literally in her Spanish / English messages.It was a ‘humble’ Christmas gift for her disabled daughter,a poor angel confined to a wheelchair.Having spent years littered with severe hardship,they couldn't afford much.Ripples of heartbreak mingled with sympathy,swallowing me like wild beasts.I couldn't be blind to it without doing anything.
Knowing the vests were for her disabled daughter,I decided to ship more Christmas gifts.Inside the package I mailed were two brand new coats and hats for the daughter alongside a sparkly scarf for the mom.A few days later,a message dinged and there came a thank-you note,in which the mom expressed her gratitude and delight,saying she never anticipated such thoughtfulness and generosity would descend on her family.I felt blessed to be Santa Claus to bring warmth to those shivering in the cold.Wrap them in warm embraces,which is the master key that opens the gates of hope and happiness.
