Ⅳ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了以同情为中心的训练方法及其在体育界的应用和优势。
1.D 词义猜测题。根据第一段中“Compassion has not been a traditional characteristic of sport. With its UK roots in 19th-century British public schools and universities, modern sport developed as a way of creating strong military leaders, training them to develop adaptability defined in those times by iron will and…”及最后一句“The ‘tough guy’ narrative was strengthened by 20th-century media stereotypes and Hollywood’s heroes and became rooted into sport and society.”可知,钢铁般的意志和biting the bullet是早期军事领袖的特征,是硬汉形象的特征,故可以推测biting the bullet指坚韧不拔的精神,与前文iron will含义一致。故选D项。
2.D 推理判断题。根据第二段中“We were expected to suffer after mistakes or losses to show that we truly cared, and everyone believed coaches needed to be severe and unforgiving to get results. These approaches still exist. But an alternative approach with compassion at its centre addresses aims of performance and well-being for those with greater ambitions.”可推知,作者提到赛艇队的例子是为了说明当时以严厉和批评为主的训练方法,从而引出以同情为中心的方法。故选D项。
3.B 段落大意题。根据第三段中“Research across branches of psychology—behavioural, sports, positive—shows how compassion creates the strongest foundation for adaptability and sustained performance under pressure whether in sport, the military, health care or business. Rather than activating our threat system which began to help us survive way back, compassion helps us to feel safe and protected, leaving us free to learn, connect with others and start exploring what we’re capable of.”(心理学各分支——行为、体育、积极心理学——的研究表明,无论是在体育、军事、医疗还是商业领域,同情心都为压力下的适应性和持续表现创造了最坚实的基础。它不是激活很久以前开始帮助我们生存下去的威胁系统,相反,同情心帮助我们感到安全和被保护,让我们自由地学习,与他人联系,并开始探索我们的能力。)可知,本段主要介绍了同情心对我们的重要作用,即应用同情心的必要性。故选B项。
4.B 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Compassion has been shown to decrease fear of failure and increase the likelihood of trying again when failure does happen. But how many talented athletes experience that depth of support in moments of crisis and failure ”可知,同情心对运动员有好处,根据but转折可知,作者认为并没有多少杰出的运动员在面对失败和危机时能获得这样的支持。故选B项。
Ⅴ.【文章大意】 这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了10月20日,2024泰州马拉松赛启动,吸引了来自德国、美国、新加坡等国家以及中国各地的2万多名选手。
1.competitive 考查形容词。由空后race为名词可知,此处为形容词competitive“有竞争力的”作定语,修饰该名词。故填competitive。
2.was launched 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。此处为谓语动词,根据时间状语on October 20以及the 2024可知,该句陈述过去发生的事情,为一般过去时,主语the 2024 Taizhou Marathon为单数含义,和动词launch为被动关系,所以为一般过去时的被动语态结构。故填was launched。

5.and 考查连词。根据句意可知,此处为连词and连接前后并列的两个谓语动词ran through和passed。故填and。
6.supplied 考查动词时态。此处为谓语动词,结合上下文时态可知,此处为一般过去时。故填supplied。
7.completing 考查非谓语动词。此处为with的复合结构“with+宾语+宾补”,complete和宾语over 300 participants为主动关系,所以为现在分词形式作宾语补足语。故填completing。
8.celebration 考查名词。由空前a为不定冠词可知,此处为名词形式,与of后的名词短语cultural exchange形成所属关系。故填celebration。
9.the 考查冠词。序数词130th前需使用定冠词the。故填the。
10.which 考查定语从句。空格处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词Peking Opera-themed performances,指物,且在从句中作主语。故填which。

Compassion has not been a traditional characteristic of sport. With its UK roots in 19th-century British public schools and universities, modern sport developed as a way of creating strong military leaders, training them to develop adaptability defined in those times by iron will and biting the bullet. Fear and harsh criticism were crucial to toughening up players and soldiers alike. The “tough guy” narrative was strengthened by 20th-century media stereotypes and Hollywood’s heroes and became rooted into sport and society.
I’ve heard countless stories like the popular culture I found when I joined the Olympic rowing team in the mid-1990s. We were expected to suffer after mistakes or losses to show that we truly cared, and everyone believed coaches needed to be severe and unforgiving to get results. These approaches still exist. But an alternative approach with compassion at its centre addresses aims of performance and well-being for those with greater ambitions.
This isn’t some soft option which plays down hard work, as supporters of the earlier traditional sporting mindset might criticize. Research across branches of psychology—behavioural, sports, positive—shows how compassion creates the strongest foundation for adaptability and sustained performance under pressure whether in sport, the military, health care or business. Rather than activating our threat system which began to help us survive way back, compassion helps us to feel safe and protected, leaving us free to learn, connect with others and start exploring what we’re capable of.
The continuous need to improve performance has led top coaches to appreciate that high performance requires levels of support to match the level of challenge. When you provide that, players start thriving while striving to achieve more. Rooted in compassion, a different coach-athlete relationship thus develops.
The dictionary definition of compassion includes the recognition of another’s suffering and the desire and support to relieve passion has been shown to decrease fear of failure and increase the likelihood of trying again when failure does happen. But how many talented athletes experience that depth of support in moments of crisis and failure
( )1.What does the underlined phrase “biting the bullet” in Paragraph 1 mean
A.Commitment. B.Ambition.
C.Suffering. D.Toughness.
( )2.Why is the example of the rowing team mentioned in the second paragraph
A.To arouse people’s interest in rowing.
B.To recall a painful training experience.
C.To draw a distinction between training approaches.
D.To bring out a compassion-centred training approach.
( )3.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A.Criticism of the compassion.
B.Necessity of employing compassion.

D.Fields that compassion is involved in.
( )4.What would the author possibly agree with
A.The media is active in developing tough training style.
B.Extraordinary athletes rarely receive enough support.
C.The compassion-centred training is widely used in sports.
D.Compassion means more openness to failure and less training.
