二、阅读理解
What an athlete eats before,during and after exercise is important for the comfort and performance during exercise.While eating soon before exercise doesn’t provide what is needed for the activity,it can prevent hunger during exercise.What is needed for muscles is stored in the days before exercise.This is one reason that the post-exercise meal is very important to recovery and being ready for the next exercise.
Exercising on a full stomach is not a good idea.Food that remains in your stomach during an event may cause stomach upset.To make sure you have enough energy and reduce stomach discomfort,you should allow a meal to fully digest(消化) before the start of the event.
If you have an early morning race or exercise,it’s best to get up early enough to eat your pre-exercise meal.If not,you should try to eat or drink something easily digestible about 20-30 minutes before the event.The closer you are to the time of your event,the less you should eat.You can have a liquid meal closer to your event rather than a solid meal because your stomach digests liquid faster.
Because glucose(葡萄糖) is the energy source for most exercise,a pre-exercise meal should include foods that are high in carbohydrates(碳水化合物) and easy to digest.This includes foods such as fruit,bread,energy bars and drinks.
Planning is necessary if you are competing in an all-day event,such as track meets or other tournaments.You should plan ahead and prepare meals and snacks that you have tried before.Do not experiment with something new on the event day.
1.To prepare for the next exercise,you should .
A.eat soon before exercise
B.eat during exercise
C.eat after exercise
D.eat nothing at all
答案C

2.Fully digesting a meal before an event may .
A.cause stomach upset
B.give enough energy and stomach discomfort
C.give comfort and good performance during exercise
D.lead to hunger during exercise
答案C
解析推理判断题。根据第二段可知,为了保证既有足够的精力,又不至于胃不舒服,你要做到在运动开始前让吃的东西完全消化。由此可推断出运动前让吃的东西完全消化不仅会让你感到舒服,而且会让你表现得更好。故选C项。
3.What can we learn from the passage
A.You’d better have your pre-exercise meal after an early morning race.
B.Fruit and bread are high in glucose and easy to digest.
C.Planning is not necessary for track meets.
D.You can try something new for your meals on the event day.
答案B

I was sure that my hosts did not mean to be rude,but I did not understand the way they acted.When I returned to school,I told the story to my classmate Steve.“Didn’t they ask if you were hungry ” Steve said.

“Well,no wonder they didn’t give you anything!” Steve said.
“But I was just being polite,” I insisted.“I thought they would give me something anyway.”

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Looking back on the first twenty years of my life,I feel grateful to have been so healthy and happy.For my happiness,I am grateful to so many people and lucky events,but what have guided me and supported me in my life are my physical health,healthy finances,and my family’s happiness.
Health comes first for me,because without health everything else is meaningless.Imagine starting a career without good health.Imagine starting a family without good health.Imagine achieving anything without good health.Clearly,good health is the first necessary for other part of one’s life.
Good health is not enough to be happy.We still need to have money in today’s society.Money obviously pays for basic needs of life — food,housing,clothing — but it is also necessary for other reasons like the quality of our education and medical care.
Next comes the most important thing in having a happy life — our family.It provides the love,joy and support that everybody needs.I love my family with all my heart.I get pleasure from their pleasure.I suffer when they suffer.My family helped me get through the hard times of entrance exams.They comforted and advised me when I had misunderstanding with my friends.More importantly,they have been there to share in my successes in the past twenty years.
In summary,all these are what I need and want in this world.As long as I stay healthy,earn enough money,and share both good times and bad times with my family,I will always be the happiest girl in the world.
21.The writer mentions her entrance exams to prove that .

The health benefits of sleep are both varied and well known.We all need to have enough sleep so as to be able to function well on both mental and physical tasks.Sleep is probably the best beauty treatment available to a person,allowing you to look younger overnight.This is probably the most superficial(表面的) benefit of sleep.The other benefits are incredibly important.
The amount of sleep that is required varies from one person to another and in many cases one person is at risk of not getting enough sleep.It is all too easy to settle into a habit that doesn’t really suit you when your family requires less sleep than you.They may well try to get up quietly and leave you resting a little longer.If they are successful in slipping(溜) out of the room and you remain in the same state of sleep then you are very lucky.Many people find themselves being disturbed by either sound or movement and then it can be difficult to return to sleep.
The fact is that whatever your reasons are for settling for less sleep than what is ideal for you,it is important to deal with your situation.Sleep is very important.Failing to get enough sleep is very costly to your health.
Many people have trouble getting to sleep.Their minds run on overtime or they become overtired.Perhaps you have simply gotten out of the habit of sleeping well.If this is the case then meditation(冥想) or hypnosis(催眠状态) can be very helpful.
Hypnosis is a natural state of relaxation and is in fact the state between being awake and asleep.When learning to use hypnosis you can also teach yourself how to relax,let go of bad thoughts and prepare yourself naturally for sleep.It is natural and easy.Simply by listening to hypnotic songs you can train your mind to expect to sleep and return to your natural sleep patterns.
24.What will happen if you have enough high quality sleep
A.You can never fail to perform your tasks.
B.You can become more beautiful than others.
C.You can be joyful and full of energy.

C
Some colours people see late at night could cause signs of clinical(临床的) depression.That was the finding of a study that builds on earlier study findings.They show that individuals who live or work in low levels of light overnight can develop clinical depression.Doctors use the words “clinical depression” to describe severe form of depression.Signs may include loss of interest or pleasure in most activities,low energy levels and negative thoughts.
In the new study American investigators designed an experiment that exposed hamsters(仓鼠) to different colours.The researchers chose hamsters because they are nocturnal,which means they sleep during the day and are active at night.
The animals were divided into four groups.One group of hamsters was kept in the dark during their night-time period.Another group was placed in front of a blue light,a third group slept in front of a white light while a fourth was put in front of a red light.
After four weeks the researchers noted how much sugary water the hamsters drank.They found that the most depressed animals drank the least amount of water.
Randy Nelson heads the Department of Neuroscience at Ohio State University.He says animals that slept in blue and white light appeared to be the most depressed.“What we saw is that these animals didn’t show any sleep uneasiness at all but they did mess up biological clock genes and they did show depressive sign while if they were in the dim(微弱) red light they did not.”
He notes that photosensitive(感光) cells in the eyes have little to do with eyesight.He says these cells send signals to the area of the brain that controls what has been called the natural sleep-wake cycle.
He says there’s a lot of blue in white light.This explains why the blue light and white light hamsters appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.
28.Researchers use hamsters in the experiment because .
A.they are similar to humans in dealing with colours
B.they are easy to observe and study
C.they are sensitive to colours like human beings
D.they are active at night and sleep during the day
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The researchers chose hamsters because they are nocturnal,which means they sleep during the day and are active at night.”可知,研究者使用仓鼠,是因为它们在白天睡觉,晚上却出来活动。故选D项。
29.What sign shows that the hamsters are being depressed
A.Their energy level becomes low.
B.They don’t sleep well.
C.Their eyesight becomes worse.
D.They drink less sugary water.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第四段中的“They found that the most depressed animals drank the least amount of water.”可知,研究人员发现,压抑感最强的仓鼠喝的糖水最少。故选D项。
30. tends to cause hamsters to be depressed.
A.Dim light B.Blue light
C.Red light D.Darkness
答案B
解析细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“This explains why the blue light and white light hamsters appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.(这就解释了为什么看到蓝光和白光的仓鼠比看到红光或黑暗的仓鼠显得更抑郁。)”可知,在蓝光中的仓鼠比在黑暗里的仓鼠更加压抑。故选B项。
31.What can help people who work late at night to avoid being depressed
A.Equipping their computer screens to put it more in the reddish light.
B.Not being exposed to dim red light when using computers.
C.Living or working in low levels of light overnight.
D.Going to see doctors of clinical depression regularly for help.
答案A
解析推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“This explains why the blue light and white light hamsters appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.”可知,在红光或黑暗中,仓鼠的压抑感表现得比蓝光或白光中的仓鼠少。由此可知,为那些工作到深夜的人的电脑屏幕配备更多的红色灯光能帮助他们避免抑郁。故选A项。
D
Body language is a broad term for several forms of communication using body movements or gestures,instead of,or as a complement to sounds,verbal language,or other forms of communication.In turn,it is one category of paralanguage,which describes all forms of human communication that are not language.
Paralanguage including body language has been extensively studied in social psychology.In everyday speech and popular psychology,the term is most often applied to body language that is thought to be involuntary,but in fact the distinction between voluntary and involuntary body language is often blurred:a smile or a wave may be given either voluntarily or involuntarily,for example.
Voluntary Body Language is less commonly discussed because it seems unproblematic.It refers to movement,gestures and poses intentionally made by the person:smiling,hands,imitating actions,and generally making movements with full or partial intention of making them and a realisation of what they communicate.
The relation of body language to animal communication has often been discussed.Human paralanguage may represent a continuation of forms of communication that our non-linguistic ancestors already used,or it may be that it has been changed by co-existing language.Some species of animals are especially skilled at detecting human body language,both voluntary and involuntary:this was the reason for trying to teach the chimpanzee Washoe American Sign Language rather than speech and perhaps the reason why the Washoe project was more successful than some previous efforts to teach apes how to dance.
Body language is a product of both genetic and environmental influences.Blind children will smile and laugh even though they have never seen a smile.The ethnologist(文化人类学者) Irenaus Eibl-Eibesfeldt claimed that a number of basic elements of body language were universal across cultures and must therefore be fixed action patterns under instinctive(本能的) control.Some forms of human body language show continuities with communicative gestures of other apes,though often with changes in meaning.More refined gestures,which vary between cultures (for example the gestures to indicate “yes” and “no”),must obviously be learned or modified through learning,usually by unconscious observation of the environment.
32.Which of the following diagrams shows the right relationship
①=language ②=paralanguage
③=body language ④=verbal language
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“Paralanguage including body language has been extensively studied in social psychology.(包括肢体语言在内的副语言在社会心理学中得到了广泛的研究。)”可知,肢体语言属于副语言;再根据第一段第一句“Body language is a broad term for several forms of communication using body movements or gestures,instead of,or as a complement to sounds,verbal language,or other forms of communication.(肢体语言是一个广泛的术语,指的是使用肢体动作或手势进行的多种形式的交流,而不是作为声音、口语或其他形式的交流的补充。)”可推理得知,肢体语言及其所属的副语言都不是口语的补充,口头语言单独为一种类别;而肢体语言、副语言和口头语言都属于语言的类别。故选B项。
33.According to the passage,the reason why the Washoe project was a success may be that .
A.the chimpanzee Washoe can be taught speech
B.apes can be taught how to dance
C.Washoe can understand body language well
D.numbers of basic elements of body language are the same in different cultures
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“Some species of animals are especially skilled at detecting human body language,both voluntary and involuntary:this was the reason for trying to teach the chimpanzee Washoe American Sign Language rather than speech and perhaps the reason why the Washoe project was more successful than some previous efforts to teach apes how to dance.(有些种类的动物特别擅长探测人类的肢体语言,包括自愿的和非自愿的:这就是为什么要尝试教黑猩猩Washoe美国手语而不是语言,或许也是为什么Washoe项目比之前教猿跳舞更成功的原因。)”可知,Washoe项目成功的原因是Washoe能够很好地理解肢体语言。故选C项。
34.Why does the author take the gestures to indicate “yes” and “no” for an example
A.To give us the meaning of the two gestures.
B.To tell us continuities of some fixed action patterns.
C.To show environmental influences of sign language.
D.To indicate genetic effects of body language.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据文章最后一句“More refined gestures,which vary between cultures (for example the gestures to indicate ‘yes’ and ‘no’),must obviously be learned or modified through learning,usually by unconscious observation of the environment.{更精细的手势,在不同的文化中是不同的(例如表示‘是’和‘不是’的手势),显然必须通过学习来学习或修改,通常是通过对环境的无意识观察。}”可知,作者以表示“是”和“不是”的手势为例,展示了手语的环境影响。故选C项。
35.The last two paragraphs mainly talk about .
A.origins of body language
B.cultural influences
C.what body language is
D.relationships between body language and animal communication
答案A
解析主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段第二句“Human paralanguage may represent a continuation of forms of communication that our non-linguistic ancestors already used,or it may be that it has been changed by co-existing language.(人类副语言可能是我们的非语言祖先已经使用的交流形式的延续,也可能是共存的语言改变了它。)”以及最后一段第一句“Body language is a product of both genetic and environmental influences.(肢体语言是遗传和环境影响的产物。)”可知,最后两段主要是在探讨肢体语言的起源。故选A项。

At noon that day,I drove back to my house after the performance.Just as I entered the living room,I heard a gentle sound coming from the bedroom upstairs—it was the sound of my favourite violin.
“Thief!”
I dashed upstairs.Sure enough,as expected,a boy of about 12 years old was petting my violin.The boy had messy hair and a thin face,his oversized coat seemingly filled with something.At first glance,I found a new pair of shoes missing.It seemed that he was surely a thief.
Then,I saw his eyes full of fear and despair.My anger was immediately replaced by a smile.I asked,“Are you Mr Ram’s nephew,Michael I’m his housekeeper.Two days ago,I heard his nephew living in the countryside would come.It must be you.You’re really like him!”
On hearing my words,the boy was first astonished,but then quickly said,“Has my uncle gone out I think I’d better first go out for a walk and visit him again in a while.”
I nodded and asked the boy who was preparing to put down the violin,“Do you like to play the violin so much ”
“Yes,but I’m so poor that I can’t afford it,” the boy replied.
“Then,I give this violin to you.” The boy looked at me questioningly,but he picked up the violin.Going out to the living room,he suddenly saw on the wall a huge colour photo of me playing the violin in the Sydney Opera House.He involuntarily trembled for a moment and ran out without looking back.
I was sure that the boy had understood what happened because no one would decorate(装饰) the living room with the housekeeper’s photo.
A few years later,I was invited to be a judge at a music competition of senior high school students. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

参考范文
A few years later,I was invited to be a judge at a music competition of senior high school students. Fascinated by the gentle sound of one participant,I was whole-heartedly impressed by his wonderful performance and solid strength.As I flicked my eyes up to glance at the performer,I was so astonished to see a thin face,so familiar,yet now lit up with joy and confidence.The “thief”!For an instant,I was amazed that the kindness I offered to cover the boy’s misconduct would made such a big difference!
After the competition,“Michael” ran to me,holding a violin box.He asked with a tremble in his voice,with his thin face reddening with excitement,“Sir,do you recognise me The nephew!It’s your kindness that enlightens my life,so does your violin.Today,I can give back this violin to you without regret.” Tears welled up in my eyes.Never had I expected that a tiny white lie would inject such great power into others and change their life.

Sleep Struggle
One in every five young people has a sleep problem,so you’re not alone.Getting enough sleep has become as important as eating vegetables and exercising regularly.It’s very important for your body.
Most young people only get seven hours of sleep each night,when they actually need nine hours.And making up for lost sleep during the week by sleeping on weekends doesn’t really work.In fact,sleeping late on weekends may actually do you more harm than good,if you have sleep problems.
What happens if you don’t get enough sleep If your sleep problem continues for a few nights,you could suffer serious problems.Lack of sleep can affect learning and memory.Worse,if your sleep difficulties last a long time,that could lead to anxiety or depression(抑郁).Therefore,you’ve got to have some healthy sleep habits.Below are some suggestions:
●Go to bed at the same time—including weekends,if possible.
●Wake up around the same time every morning.When you sleep late just one morning during the week,it may disturb your body clock.This will make it hard for you to sleep that night.
●Do something relaxing before going to bed.
●Exercise during the day.Don’t exercise right before going to bed.
●Avoid drinking.Alcohol makes you excited.This prevents you from falling asleep or wakes you up during the night.
●Don’t smoke.Smoking is always bad for the body.Smoking before bedtime keeps you awake.
If trying these tips over a couple of weeks does not help you,speak to your doctor.Do not take any sleeping pills without first asking your doctor.Many of them have strong side effects.

解析细节理解题。从“Go to bed at the same time—including weekends,if possible.” 和“Wake up around the same time every morning.”可知,文章建议有睡眠问题的人应该根据固定的睡眠时间表进行睡眠。
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A.Sleep problems are serious among some young people.
B.Sleeping late on weekends can make up for lost sleep.
C.Your eating habits will be broken due to lack of sleep.
D.You’ll no longer have your sleep problems if you try the tips.
答案A
解析推理判断题。根据第一段中的“One in every five young people has a sleep problem,so you’re not alone.”可判断出,年轻人存在着严重的睡眠问题。B项应改为否定;C项文中未提及;可由最后一段判断出D项叙述有误,这些建议并不一定奏效。
4.What’s the main idea of this passage
A.Many young people have sleep problems.
B.Don’t smoke before sleeping.
C.How to keep healthy sleep habits.
D.Smoking can make you awake.

More than 135,000 UK drinkers will die from cancer caused by alcohol by the year 2035,researchers say.Drinking too much will have caused 7,100 cancer deaths a year by 2035,a rise of 13 percent on the present rate.A study by Sheffield University and Cancer Research UK shows that alcohol will cost the NHS(National Health Service) ￡53 billion over the next ten years including ￡2 billion on cancer.
Although alcohol is known to cause many types of cancer including breast cancer and throat cancer,most people don’t realise the relation between alcohol and cancer.A survey of 2,100 Britons by the researchers earlier found nine in ten did not associate drinking with cancer.The researchers used a computer model to work out the numbers of alcohol-related cancer deaths,hospital admissions(入院) and total costs to NHS over the next 20 years.
The study shows that a fifth of men and 1 in 10 women have alcohol every day and many of these are middle-aged and middle class.Researchers are very worried about this group as they believe cancer may be caused by drinking over long periods.The study shows that even if the expense stays as it is,alcohol-related cancer deaths will rise from 6,299 in 2015 to 7,097 in 2034.Alcohol will lead to 891,299 hospital admissions,up from 802,118 in 2015,and 65,005 will be caused by cancer.
Chief Medical Officer Dame Sally Davies studied carefully the alcohol guidelines(指导方针) for the first time in thirty years.She told people there was no safe level of drinking and advised them to drink no more than 14 units a week.But researchers say this guidance isn’t enough and want the government to increase a little price per unit of alcohol.
1.What can we learn from the text
A.Fewer people will die of cancer in the future.
B.Alcohol will be the only cause of cancer deaths.
C.More and more people will get rid of the habit of drinking.
D.The computer model can offer researchers useful numbers.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“The researchers used a computer model to work out the numbers of alcohol-related cancer deaths,hospital admissions and total costs to NHS over the next 20 years.”可知,计算机模型为研究人员提供了有用的数据。故选D项。
2.What does the underlined word “associate” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Share. B.Compare.
C.Connect. D.Replace.
答案C
解析词义猜测题。根据第二段第一句“Although alcohol is known to cause many types of cancer including breast cancer and throat cancer,most people don’t realise the relation between alcohol and cancer.”可知,associate意为“联系”。故选C项。
3.The researchers hope the government can .
A.raise the price of alcohol properly
B.remove the nation’s drinking habit
C.improve middle-aged persons’ income
D.provide fund for the National Health Service
答案A
解析细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“But researchers say this guidance isn’t enough and want the government to increase a little price per unit of alcohol.”可知,研究人员希望政府提高酒的价格。故选A项。
五、完形填空
A whole-family approach simply means that everyone—parents and kids alike— 1 together as a team to achieve good health and well-being.As with any 2 ,there’s a leader or coach—and that’s you!
Lead by 3 .Adult family members are important role models for healthy eating and exercise.Talk about why you eat fruit as a snack,take an exercise class,or go for walks.
Start them young.Don’t wait until your child is at a(n) 4 weight to form good eating and activity habits.It’s much easier to maintain a healthy weight than to lose 5 later.
Be active together.Make it usual for the family to be active.Being active as a family allows 6 to expend energy in a 7 way,and adults enjoy the health benefits,too.
8 together.It may be not practical to do it every day,but invite kids into the process of 9 food.Little kids can learn math skills by 10 and they’ll begin to understand the chemistry of cooking.They’ll also gain an understanding of healthy ingredients.
Older kids will enjoy having the authority to select and prepare 11 they like and will be more likely to eat what they’ve made.It might even inspire them to make healthy choices 12 their own.
Eat together.Eating a meal as a family sends the right 13 about nutrition.Kids will see their parents eating healthy food and may be inspired to try new foods.They will also come to 14 mealtime as a time for socialising and sharing.Parents get a chance to 15 nutritious food and note their child’s likes and dislikes through conversation.
1.A.works B.plays

4.A.possible B.proper
C.unhealthy D.adult
答案C
解析注意该句的句式,这是一个否定祈使句,意为“不要等到你的孩子的体重都已经处于不健康状态了再去培养好的饮食和锻炼习惯”。

C.explaining D.discussing
答案B
解析根据设空前的math一词可知,应该是通过测量学习有关数学方面的技能。
11.A.methods B.foods
