ACarl Lewis holds the record as the only man to capture the gold in the 100-meter, 200-meter, long jump, and 4*100-meter relay at the same Olympic Games. He has been a member of five Olympic teams, but it wasn’t until the 1984 Games in Los Angeles that he came into his own, winning the 100-meter, 200-meter, long jump, and 4*100-meter relay. He continued to create history at the 1988 Games in Seoul, where he won the 100-meter and the long jump for a second time. In 1992 in Barcelona, Carl won the long jump and 4*100-meter relay again. Carl Lewis finally finished competing in 1996 in Atlanta where he won the long jump.He happens to live right down the street from me, so I decided to interview the greatest Olympian of all time.1.When you started running, did you realize that you were going to be great?No, I was awful when I started! I was 5’5” until the end of tenth grade, but by the time I graduated I was six feet. I’m sure I would have quit if it hadn’t been for my parents telling me not to give up.2.What thoughts went through your mind before a race? What did you tell yourself?Leading up to the race, I’d go over my race technique. But once I stepped into the block, I would try to relax and clear my mind so the only thing I could hear was the gun going off. While I was actually running, I had to be aware of what was happening, but I couldn’t let that affect my race. I had to run my own race.3.What advice would you give athletes?Never give up. I was supposed to give up, but because my mom was the best liar on earth, telling me I would grow and that I was good at running, I continued to run. And you know how people say, “You can be whatever you want to be.” You just have to be a leader, no a follower, choose to make a difference, and you will be whatever you aspire to be.21. In which of the following did Carl Lewis win gold medals twice?A. 100-meter and the long jump.B. 4 * 100-meter relay and 100-meter.C. The long jump and 200-meter.D. 100-meter and 200-meter.22. What can be learned about Carl Lewis from the passage?A. He noticed nothing else but his running during the race.B. He has altogether participated in four Olympic Games.C. He was so determined that he never thought of quitting his sports.D. He couldn’t have succeeded without his parents’ encouragement.23. The underlined word “awful” in the passage is closest in meaning to.A. terribleB. confidentC. greatD. shortBBullied (受欺凌的) kids face a high risk of mental health problems as teens and as young adults. Indeed, kids troubled by bullying may be worse off than those who had suffered physical abuse (虐待) or neglect, as the study found.Until recently, most studies of child victims focused not on bullying but on maltreatment (虐待), Dieter Wolke says. Maltreatment includes physical or emotional abuse, neglect or other behaviors that can harm a child.Wolke’s team wanted to better understand bullying’s long-term effects compared to those due to maltreatment. They focused on 4,026 children in the United Kingdom and 1,420 more in the United States. Information about bullying and maltreatment was collected for American children to age 13. They collected the same information for British youth up to age 16. The researchers also gathered data on each individual’s mental health as a young adult.Among the Americans, 36 percent of bullied kids had mental problems later. Those problems included anxiety, which is a state of excessive worry. They also included depression. That is a feeling of hopelessness that can last a long time. Among kids who had been maltreated by adults, 17 percent later suffered mental health problems. That was less than half the rate seen in people who had been bullied as school kids.In the U.K. group, the difference was less dramatic. Roughly 25 percent of the bullied kids reported mental health problems later, compared with about 17 percent who had been maltreated. But however you look at it, the findings are disturbing. And that’s why Wolke says schools, health services and otheragencies must work together to end bullying.Studies like this are important, says Corinna Jenkins Tucker. They bring attention to the lasting impacts of bullying. Tucker does, however, question the value of comparing bullying to other types of abuse. Such an approach can make it seem like one type of bad experience is worse than the other, she says. In fact, both types have short-term and long-term effects on health. She’d like to see researchers study the big picture. They should try to understand how all of these negative experiences together shape children ---and sometimes harm them.24. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. researchers should pay less attention to maltreatmentB. more bullied kids have mental problems in the USAC. a similar number of children are maltreated in America and BritainD. either bullying or maltreatment has negative effects on children’s health25. The purpose of the author’s writing this passage is to .A. advertiseB. informC. CompareD. Entertain26. The passage is most probably taken from ______.A. a news sectionB. a science sectionC. a culture sectionD. an entertainment section27. In Tucker’s opinion, Wolke’s study is ______.A. disappointingB. ImprovableC. satisfactoryD. nonsenseCPhysical education, or gym class, isn’t required for all high school students. In some schools, it isn’t offered for some different reasons. But should high school students have physical education? The answer is certainly “yes”.Today many people don’t do sports. But as is known to all, doing sports is very important for an adult. Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult.High school isn’t that easy. Many students are under a lot of stress. Stress can be harmful to a student’s studies and life. Doing sports can help them deal with stress better, helping them live a happier life at school.The American Heart Association says that 10 million kids and teens suffer from obesity (肥胖症). Teens should get 60 minutes of physical activity per day to control their weight and to help their bones get stronger. The increase in activities that don’t get teens to move around, such as video games and computer activities, means many teens don’t get their required exercise. Physical education classes act as a public health measure to encourage activity and help teens have healthy weights.Inactivity increases teens’ risk of developing many diseases. An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems. As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes toward treating medical conditions that can be hindered by lifestyle changes, according to the American College of Sports Medicine.According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition (PCFSN), students who performed five hours of physical activity each week improved their academic (学业的) performance. Students from programs with no physical activity, who used the extra time for classroom study, did not perform better on tests than those who gave up some study time in support of physical education.28. According to Paragraph 2, what does physical education in high school mean?A. Helping teens learn to make good plans.B. Removing the stress faced by teens at school.C. Making teens attach importance to exercise later.D. Getting teens to encourage adults to exercise.29. What does the underlined word “hindered” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Measured.B. Prevented.C. Shown.D. Caused.30. According to the PCFSN, doing sports ______.A. means making students choose between sports and studiesB. helps students make good use of all their timeC. means students adjust to their studies betterD. helps students do better in their studies31. What is the text mainly about?A. How high school students can live a better life.B. How schools can help students love doing studentsC. Why some schools consider physical education important.D. Why high school students should receive physical education.DA new study, conducted by British company Mindlab International, has found that listening to music at work increases accuracy and speed, The Telegraph reported. Perhaps, some parents disagree with this idea, saying, “Switch off the music and concentrate!” Well, if that’s the case with your parents, you might now be able to convince them that you have science on your side.The company gave 26 participants a series of different tasks for five days in a row, including spell checking, mathematical word problems, data entry, and abstract reasoning. The participants completed these tasks while listening to music or no music at all.The results showed that while music was playing, 88% of participants produced their most accurate test results and 81% completed their fastest work. David Lewis, chairman of Mindlab International, told The Telegraph, “Music is a very powerful management tool if you want to increase not only the efficiency of your workforce but also their emotional state... they are going to become more positive about the work.”However, you may have a list of your favorite songs, but not all kinds of music match all homework. For maths or other subjects involving numbers or attention to detail, you should listen to classical music, the study found. In the study, pop music enabled participants to complete their tasks 58% faster than when listening to no music at all. If you are reviewing your English writing, pop music is the best choice, as it is the best kind for spell checking. It cut mistakes by 14%, compared to listening to no music. After finishing your homework, do you often take time to check your answers? Maybe, some dance music is suitable for you.32. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Music helps us to learnB. We cannot live without musicC. Different music, different livesD. Music in the classroom.33. What did the participants have to do in the study?A. Persuade their parents to listen to music.B. Listen to the same music together.C. Try their best to choose the most suitable music.D. Finish tasks with music or without music at all.34. What does the underlined word “they” refer to in Para 3?A. toolsB. resultsC. testsD. participants35. When you review your English writing, what kind of music is the best choice?A. Classical musicB. Dance musicC. Pop musicD. Rock musicIII.阅读七选五(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
