（3）考查动词及语境理解。A.change改变；B.prepare准备；C.stop停止；D.choose选择。句意：然后我意识到一旦你进入高中，你不得不选择一项运动因为教练在比赛淡季需要很多的训练。根据前文"once you get into high school you have to just _____ a sport as coaches require pretty much training in the off season"可知，我曾经喜欢足球和很多其他的运动，而进入高中之后需要对其中一项运动进行很多训练，所以这里是指从我喜欢的很多的运动中选择出一项运动。所以合适的词义为"选择"，故选D。
（4）考查动词及语境理解。A.work工作；B.games游戏；C.training训练；D.tours旅游。句意：如果你一周的三至五天都在做训练，这给其他的活动留下很少的训练。前一句说"as coaches require pretty much training （因为教练需要很多的训练）"，原词复现题，所以应选"trainning （训练）"，故选C。
