[译文参考] 活着的传奇
来帮助我们选出一些“体育界的活传奇”吧。他们必须是所在运动项目上的大师,并且是他人学习的楷模。以下是我们首批遴选出的两位传奇人物。
郎平
作为一名运动员,郎平为她的祖国赢得了名誉和荣耀。作为一名教练,她带领中国女排在世界锦标赛和奥运会赛场上屡获殊荣。作为个人,郎平深受国内外球迷的喜爱。当中国队备战2015年世界杯时,她的决心受到了考验。由郎平一手打造的团队处于崩溃的边缘。最优秀的队员中有一人受伤了,而且队长也因心脏问题离队。损失两大主力队员是个巨大的挑战,但是郎平没有气馁。她曾面临过各种困难,她知道只要她的这些年轻的球员们齐心协力,就能获胜。两周之后,她们成了世界冠军!紧接着在2016年,郎平又带领她的球队在巴西勇夺奥运金牌。
迈克尔·乔丹
当迈克尔·乔丹双脚离地的那一瞬间,时间似乎都凝固了。这位被称为“飞人乔丹”的球员用他那优雅的动作和跳跃改变了篮球运动。乔丹的球技令人赞叹,然而他所展示的精神力量使他独一无二。在比赛的最后几秒钟,乔丹似乎总能找到制胜的方法。乔丹说,他的成功秘诀在于吸取失败的教训。“我可以接受失败;每个人都会遭遇失败。但我决不能接受不去尝试。”赛场上的失利教会他要更加努力地训练和绝不放弃。在生活中,乔丹学会了与他人分享自己的成功。他(乔丹)在芝加哥所创建的“男孩女孩俱乐部”从1996年至今一直在帮助年轻人。

A
(2025·淄博市高一检测)
Leek Town Warriors was a girls’ football team which used to get routinely defeated every time they turned out,until James Henry stepped in two years ago.He took the job when the previous coach quit and transformed the team’s fortunes.With the help of his assistant Andy Austin,they started training hard in April 2020.
Some players had never kicked a football before joining the team,so training them took hours of hard work and patience.After a good few weeks,they got down to training and really started to take it in what the coach wanted.“I insist on doing the basic stuff well and letting the girls decide what they feel they need to work on.” James said.
James’ first season was ruined,which forced him and Andy to get creative with training.They organized team-building activities with the girls to help them bond on and off the field.James then spent the sessions they could hold focusing on the basics of football like passing and shooting,bringing the girls up to a good standard.
James watched the girls develop over the course of last year,and in September they played their first match of the new season.They won the game,and since then went on an unbeaten run of eight games.The team’s star player,15-year-old Chelsea,has also impressed the audience individually,becoming the top scorer in the league with incredible 30 goals.
James said,“All the effort that the girls,us coaches and parents have put in to get this point has been enormous.If I hadn’t had the support of Andy helping me every week,this would have been an impossible task.So I’m incredibly grateful to have him on side.All we want is to bring more girls into the game and show that it’s not all about having the best players; it’s about hard work and giving everyone the chance to play.”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了利克镇勇士女子足球队在詹姆斯·亨利教练的带领下,夯实基础技能,共同努力,成为连胜八场的明星足球队的故事。
1.Why did James Henry take over the soccer team
A.Because he wanted to try his fortune.
B.Because he wanted to turn things around.
C.Because the previous coach recommended him.
D.Because he hoped to fulfill his champion dream.
答案 B [推理判断题。根据第一段中的“He took the job when the previous coach quit and transformed the team’s fortunes.”可知,詹姆斯·亨利是在当时球队遭遇长期失败,一片惨淡的情况下,接受了教练的职位。由此推知,詹姆斯·亨利接管足球队是想扭转球队的局面,让其变得更好,故选B项。]
2.What did James do to change the situation
A.Pick experienced players.
B.Develop players’ patience.
C.Lay stress on basic skills.
D.Make decisions for the girls.
答案 C [细节理解题。根据第二段最后詹姆斯说的话“I insist on doing the basic stuff well and letting the girls decide what they feel they need to work on.”可知,詹姆斯注重足球基本技能的训练,也不会为女孩们做决定,故选C项。]
3.What did the team achieve after James was in charge
A.They won the league championship.
B.They stood out in James’ first season.
C.They scored 30 goals in the season.
D.They won regularly and secured promotion.
答案 D [细节理解题。根据第四段中的“James watched the girls…an unbeaten run of eight games.”可知,詹姆斯当教练之后,女孩们正式参加比赛就持续获得了胜利,这是球队在詹姆斯的带领下实现的成就,故选D项。]
4.What can we learn from the story
A.Talent is the key.
B.Joint efforts matter.
C.Every dog has his day.
D.Time and tide wait for no man.
答案 B [推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据最后一段最后一句“All we want...and giving everyone the chance to play.”可知,在足球比赛中获得成功,不是由天赋好的球员或者最佳的球员决定的,而是努力奋斗、共同合作。由此可知,我们可以从这个故事中学到,共同努力很重要,故选B项。]

(2025·杭州萧山高一月考)
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.It is also the most neglect (忽视).Common reasons for not eating breakfast include having no time,not feeling hungry,traditional dislike and dieting.
Breakfast simply means “break the fast”.Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state.In the morning your body needs energy for the day’s work ahead.
A good breakfast should provide 1/3 of your total calorie(卡路里) needs for the day.On average,we eat 400 less calories for breakfast than for dinner.If breakfast doesn’t appeal (吸引) to you in the morning,try eating a lighter dinner earlier in the evening or save half of your dinner for breakfast in the morning.
If you still aren’t hungry in the morning,start with something small like juice or toast or have a nutritious (有营养的) mid-morning snack (小吃) later when you are hungry.
So,you say you are on a diet.Some people fear that eating breakfast will make them hungrier during the day and they will eat more.It is true that eating breakfast is likely to make you feel hungry throughout the day.That is because your body is working correctly.Although you may feel as if you are eating more all day long,in reality you are probably not.
Not eating breakfast can also cause you overeat,since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later.To make matters worse,since your body is in a slow state,it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently (有效).If you feed your body healthy snacks and meals throughout the day,you are less likely to become hungry and stuff (填饱) yourself as soon as you begin to eat.
Since breakfast is the first and most important meal of the day,choosing the right food is important.The best breakfast foods are fruits,juice,lean meat and grain products such as bread,rice,noodles and cereals.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了吃早饭的重要性,并告诉我们早饭吃什么样的东西最合适。
5.What is the meaning of the word “fast” in the phrase “break the fast”
A.movement
B.going without food
C.quickness
D.certain kind of food
答案 B [词义猜测题。根据第二段“Breakfast simply means ‘break the fast’...for the day’s work ahead.”可知,后边的句子说的是人们需要吃一些东西,补充能量;而break是“打破”的意思,那么就是说要打破不吃饭这种情况,故选B项。]
6.If you don’t want to have breakfast in the morning,according to the writer’s suggestion,you should .
A.see a doctor to have an examination
B.have a little supper
C.go to a restaurant to enjoy a good meal
D.have a good supper
答案 B [细节理解题。根据第三段“If breakfast doesn’t appeal to...for breakfast in the morning.”可知,作者给到的建议是早点吃一些清淡的晚餐,或者晚餐少吃一些,留一半第二天早晨吃,故选B项。]
7.Eating breakfast,in fact,makes your body .
A.work out of order
B.produce too much energy
C.work well
D.feel hungry quicker
答案 C [推理判断题。根据第五段“It is true that...your body is working correctly.”可知,吃早餐如果感觉饥饿,说明才是对的,说明身体运转很好,故选C项。]
8.What does the writer mainly do in the last paragraph
A.The writer mainly persuades us to have a good breakfast.
B.The writer mainly tells us what food isn’t suitable for breakfast.
C.The writer mainly describes when and how we should have our breakfast.
D.The writer mainly tells us what food we should have for breakfast.
答案 D [段落大意题。根据最后一段“The best breakfast foods...and cereals.”可知,本段是关于早饭究竟吃什么好的话题,故选D项。]
Ⅱ.七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
(2025·福州市高一月考)
In a world ruled by hard exercise and complex fitness programs,the simple act of walking is often ignored (忽略). 1 It offers physical and mental benefits that lead to total happiness.
Heart Health and Weight Management
Walking is light heart exercise that helps improve heart health by increasing blood circulation (循环). 2 Besides,regular quick walking supports in weight management by burning calories and improving digestion (消化),making it an excellent choice for those looking to throw away pounds or keep a healthy weight.
Pressure Drop and Clear Mind
Taking a relaxing walk or quick walk has been shown to give off endorphins,the body’s natural “feel-good” materials.This leads to lower pressure levels,improved feelings,and improved mental health.Walking outdoors in nature or in a peaceful environment can provide a refreshing escape from the daily tasks. 3
Joint (关节) Health and Free Movement
Unlike active sports,walking is soft on the joints,making it a perfect choice for people of all ages and fitness levels. 4 At the same time,it also raises the ability to move freely and easily.Walking regularly can be particularly beneficial to those recovering from pain or looking to prevent problems with joints.
Social Communication and Connection
5 Walking clubs,group climbs,or even simple walking with a friend or family member can provide an opportunity to connect,share experiences,and create lasting memories while at the same time bringing the physical benefits.
A.It helps oil joints and make them stronger.
B.It’s a cheap way to lead a healthier lifestyle.
C.So taking a walk can make your mind relaxed and fresh.
D.A quick walk after meals has been shown to benefit the stomach.
E.It cuts down the risk of heart disease and brings down blood pressure.
F.Walking is useful exercise that can easily be turned into a social activity.
G.However,walking remains one of the easiest and most useful forms of exercise.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了步行是最简单、最有用的锻炼方式之一。它提供了身体和精神上的好处,带来了完全的幸福。
1.G [根据前一句内容“In a world ruled...walking is often ignored.”可知,在以艰苦运动和复杂健身计划为主导的世界里,步行这种简单的行为常常被忽视。设空处承上启下,说明步行的益处。G项“However,walking remains one of the easiest and most useful forms of exercise.”合乎句意,说明步行仍然是最简单、最有用的锻炼方式之一,故选G项。]
2.E [根据前一句“Walking is light heart...increasing blood circulation.”可知,散步是一种轻微的心脏运动,通过促进血液循环有助于改善心脏健康。设空处承接上句,说明散步对心脏的好处。E项“It cuts down the risk of heart disease and brings down blood pressure.”合乎句意,表示它可以降低患心脏病的风险,降低血压,故选E项。]
3.C [根据上句“Walking outdoors in nature...from the daily tasks.”可知,在大自然或宁静的环境中散步可以让你从日常工作中解脱出来。设空处应为在大自然中散步对身心的好处。C项“So taking a walk can make your mind relaxed and fresh.”合乎句意,表示散步可以使你的头脑放松和清新,故选C项。]
4.A [根据前一句“Unlike active sports...and fitness levels”可知,与剧烈运动不同,散步对关节很柔软,使其成为所有年龄和健康水平的人的完美选择。设空处应为和其他运动相比,散步对身体的好处。A项“It helps oil joints and make them stronger.”合乎句意,表示它有助于关节润滑,使关节更强壮,故选A项。]
5.F [本段的小标题为“Social Communication and Connection”,可知设空处应为散步在社交方面的作用。F项“Walking is useful exercise that can easily be turned into a social activity.”合乎句意,表示散步是一种有益的运动,很容易变成一种社交活动,故选F项。](共61张PPT)

郎平
作为一名运动员,郎平为她的祖国赢得了名誉和荣耀。作为一名教练,她带领中国女排在世界锦标赛和奥运会赛场上屡获殊荣。作为个人,郎平深受国内外球迷的喜爱。当中国队备战2015年世界杯时,她的决心受到了考验。由郎平一手打造的团队处于崩溃的边缘。最优秀的队员中有一人受伤了,而且队长也因心脏问题离队。损失两大主力队员是个巨大的挑战,但是郎平没有气馁。她曾面临过各种困难,她知道只要她的这些年轻的球员们齐心协力,就能获胜。两周之后,她们成了世界冠军!紧接着在2016年,郎平又带领她的球队在巴西勇夺奥运金牌。
迈克尔·乔丹
当迈克尔·乔丹双脚离地的那一瞬间,时间似乎都凝固了。这位被称为“飞人乔丹”的球员用他那优雅的动作和跳跃改变了篮球运动。乔丹的球技令人赞叹,然而他所展示的精神力量使他独一无二。在比赛的最后几秒钟,乔丹似乎总能找到制胜的方法。乔丹说,他的成功秘诀在于吸取失败的教训。“我可以接受失败;每个人都会遭遇失败。但我决不能接受不去尝试。”赛场上的失利教会他要更加努力地训练和绝不放弃。在生活中,乔丹学会了与他人分享自己的成功。他(乔丹)在芝加哥所创建的“男孩女孩俱乐部”从1996年至今一直在帮助年轻人。

Leek Town Warriors was a girls’ football team which used to get routinely defeated every time they turned out,until James Henry stepped in two years ago.He took the job when the previous coach quit and transformed the team’s fortunes.With the help of his assistant Andy Austin,they started training hard in April 2020.
Some players had never kicked a football before joining the team,so training them took hours of hard work and patience.After a good few weeks,they got down to training and really started to take it in what the coach wanted.“I insist on doing the basic stuff well and letting the girls decide what they feel they need to work on.” James said.
James’ first season was ruined,which forced him and Andy to get creative with training.They organized team-building activities with the girls to help them bond on and off the field.James then spent the sessions they could hold focusing on the basics of football like passing and shooting,bringing the girls up to a good standard.
James watched the girls develop over the course of last year,and in September they played their first match of the new season.They won the game,and since then went on an unbeaten run of eight games.The team’s star player,15-year-old Chelsea,has also impressed the audience individually,becoming the top scorer in the league with incredible 30 goals.
James said,“All the effort that the girls,us coaches and parents have put in to get this point has been enormous.If I hadn’t had the support of Andy helping me every week,this would have been an impossible task.So I’m incredibly grateful to have him on side.All we want is to bring more girls into the game and show that it’s not all about having the best players; it’s about hard work and giving everyone the chance to play.”

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.It is also the most neglect (忽视).Common reasons for not eating breakfast include having no time,not feeling hungry,traditional dislike and dieting.
Breakfast simply means “break the fast”.Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state.In the morning your body needs energy for the day’s work ahead.
A good breakfast should provide 1/3 of your total calorie(卡路里) needs for the day.On average,we eat 400 less calories for breakfast than for dinner.If breakfast doesn’t appeal (吸引) to you in the morning,try eating a lighter dinner earlier in the evening or save half of your dinner for breakfast in the morning.
If you still aren’t hungry in the morning,start with something small like juice or toast or have a nutritious (有营养的) mid-morning snack (小吃) later when you are hungry.
So,you say you are on a diet.Some people fear that eating breakfast will make them hungrier during the day and they will eat more.It is true that eating breakfast is likely to make you feel hungry throughout the day.That is because your body is working correctly.Although you may feel as if you are eating more all day long,in reality you are probably not.
Not eating breakfast can also cause you overeat,since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later.To make matters worse,since your body is in a slow state,it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently (有效).If you feed your body healthy snacks and meals throughout the day,you are less likely to become hungry and stuff (填饱) yourself as soon as you begin to eat.
Since breakfast is the first and most important meal of the day,choosing the right food is important.The best breakfast foods are fruits,juice,lean meat and grain products such as bread,rice,noodles and cereals.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了吃早饭的重要性,并告诉我们早饭吃什么样的东西最合适。
5.What is the meaning of the word “fast” in the phrase “break the fast”
A.Movement B.going without food
C.Quickness D.certain kind of food
解析 词义猜测题。根据第二段“Breakfast simply means ‘break the fast’...for the day’s work ahead.”可知,后边的句子说的是人们需要吃一些东西,补充能量;而break是“打破”的意思,那么就是说要打破不吃饭这种情况,故选B项。

6.If you don’t want to have breakfast in the morning,according to the writer’s suggestion,you should .
A.see a doctor to have an examination
B.have a little supper
C.go to a restaurant to enjoy a good meal
D.have a good supper
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段“If breakfast doesn’t appeal to...for breakfast in the morning.”可知,作者给到的建议是早点吃一些清淡的晚餐,或者晚餐少吃一些,留一半第二天早晨吃,故选B项。
