My son Joey was born with club feet. The doctors assured us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally — but would never run very well. The first three years of his life, he had several operations on the feet. By the time he was eight, you wouldn’t know he had a problem when you saw him walk .
The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to run as well as the other children. So he didn’t know.
In seventh grade he decided to go out for the cross-country team. Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others — perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential to score points for the school. We didn’t tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didn’t know.
He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day — even the day he had a 103-degree fever. I was worried, so I went to look for him after school. I found him running all alone. I asked him how he felt. “Okay,” he said. He had two more miles to go. The sweat ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. Yet he looked straight ahead and kept running. We never told him he couldn’t run four miles with a 103-degree fever. So he didn’t know.
Two weeks later, the names of the team runners were called. Joey was number six on the list.
Joey had made the team. He was in seventh grade — the other six team members were all eighth-graders. We never told him he shouldn’t expect to make the team. We never told him he couldn’t do it. We never told him he couldn’t do it...so he didn’t know. He just did it.
4. What does the underlined word in Para.1 mean
A. A game. B. A disability. C. A stick. D. An association.
5. Why didn’t the parents tell Joey the truth
A. Because they forgot to tell him the truth. B. Because they liked cheating him.
C. Because they didn’t want to hurt him. D. Because he didn’t want to know.
6. What is the best word to describe Joey
A. Lazy. B. Intelligent. C. Determined. D. Dependent.
7. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. The Great Parents B. The Road to Success
C. The Club Feet D. He Didn’t Know
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是作者在教育先天缺陷的儿子时，因为没有给他设置限制，使其在追逐梦想的时候无所顾忌，从而成功获得进入学校体育队的资格。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段画线词后文“The doctors assured us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally — but would never run very well.(医生向我们保证，经过治疗，他将能够正常走路，但永远不会跑得很好)”可知，后文提到他永远不会跑得很好，说明儿子的脚有残疾。故画线短语意思是“一种残疾”。故选B。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to run as well as the other children. So he didn’t know.(我们邻居家的孩子们在玩耍时就像大多数孩子一样跑来跑去，乔伊也会跳进来，跑着玩着。我们从来没有告诉他，他可能不能像其他孩子一样跑得好。所以他不知道)”可知，父母不告诉乔伊真相是因为他们不想伤害他。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others.(每天他都和球队一起训练。他比其他人训练更努力，跑得也更多)”和第四段“He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day—even the day he had a 39 degree fever.(他坚持每天跑4到5英里，即使是在他发烧39度的时候也不例外)”可推断，Joey训练比别人都刻苦，就算是发烧了也不停止训练，从而推断出他是一个意志坚强的人，故选C。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“We never told him he shouldn’t expect to make the team. We never told him he couldn’t do it. We never told him he couldn’t do it...so he didn’t know. He just did it.(我们从没告诉过他别指望能进球队。我们从没说过他做不到。我们从来没有告诉他他做不到。所以他不知道。他就这么做了)”结合文章主要讲的是作者在教育先天缺陷的儿子时，因为没有给他设置限制，使其在追逐梦想的时候无所顾忌，从而成功获得进入学校体育队的资格。可知，D选项“他不知道”最符合文章标题。故选D。
C
Physical education, or PE, 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 study 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. PE classes act as a public health measure to encourage physical activities and help teens have healthy weights.
Not doing sports 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.
8. According to paragraph 2, what does physical education in high school mean
A. Making teens attach importance to exercise later.
B. Removing the stress faced by teens at school.
C. Getting teens to encourage adults to exercise.
D. Helping teens learn to make good plans.
9. What does the underlined word “hindered” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Measured. B. Prevented.
C. Shown. D. Caused.
10. According to the PCFSN, doing sports ________.
A. means making students choose between sports and studies
B. helps students make good use of all their time
C means students adjust to their studies better
D. helps students do better in their studies
11. What is the text mainly about
A. Why high school students should receive physical education.
B. Why some schools consider physical education important.
C. How schools can help students love doing sports.
D. How high school students can live a better life.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍高中生为什么应该接受体育教育。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“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.(教导青少年健康生活方式的重要性，现在就制定健身计划，可以帮助青少年在成年后把锻炼放在首位)”可知，高中体育教育意味着让青少年重视以后的锻炼。故选A。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems.(积极的生活方式是预防这些健康问题的好方法)”可知，积极的生活方式可以预防健康问题，由此可推知，画线词所在句意为“根据美国运动医学学院的数据，多达75%的医疗保健支出用于治疗某些疾病，而这些疾病是可以通过改变生活方式来预防的”，hinder意为“预防、阻止”，故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“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. (根据总统的健身、运动和营养委员会（PCFSN）的数据，每周进行5小时体育活动的学生学习成绩有所提高)”可知，根据PCFSN可知，做运动帮助学生在学习上做得更好。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段中的“But should high school students have physical education The answer is certainly ‘yes’.(但是高中生应该上体育课吗？答案当然是肯定的)”是全文的主题句，结合全文内容可知，这篇文章主要讲了为什么高中生应该接受体育教育。故选A。
D
Life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have vanished by 2050. Instead, people will choose a programme from a “menu” and a computer will send the programme directly to the television. By 2050, music, films, programmes, newspapers and books will come to us in the similar way.
In many places, agriculture is developing quickly and people are growing fruit and vegetables for export. This uses a lot of water. Therefore, there could be serious shortages of water. Some scientist predict that water could be the cause of wars if we don’t act now.
In the future, cars will run on new, clean fuels (燃料) and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed and there won’t be any accidents. Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination. Also, by 2050, space planes will fly people from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.
Some big companies now prefer to use robots that do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and work 24 hours a day. They are also easy to control. And they never argue with people. They can be easily used in a variety of places—factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.
Scientists will have discovered how to control genes (基因). Scientists have already produced clones (克隆) of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look and how they behave. Scientists will be able to do these things, but should they

【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章作者介绍了可能会与现在大不相同的2050年的生活。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。下文Instead, people will choose a programme from a “menu” and a computer will send the programme directly to the television.说相反，人们将从“菜单”中选择节目，电脑将直接把节目发送到电视上。由此可知，上文First of all, it seems that TV channels will have vanished by 2050.的意思是首先，电视频道似乎将在2050年消失。“vanished”的意思是消失，A. Settled. 解决；B. Spread.传播；C. Disappeared.消失；D. Decreased.减少，故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。第四段Some big companies now prefer to use robots that do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and work 24 hours a day. They are also easy to control. And they never argue with people. They can be easily used in a variety of places—factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.说一些大公司现在更喜欢使用机器人，不要求加薪或罢工，一天24小时工作。它们也很容易控制。它们从不和人争论。它们可以很容易地用于各种场所——工厂、学校、办公室、医院、商店和家庭。由此推断出，第四段说明了机器人的诸多好处，故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。答案定位在最后一段Scientists will be able to do these things, but should they
（科学家将能够做这些事情，但他们应该做吗 ）由此推断出，作者可能不同意克隆人的想法，故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段Life will probably be very different in 2050.是全文的主题句，结合全文内容，可知这篇文章主要讲了未来的生活，故选B。

If you react every time your child cries, you maybe denying(拒绝给予) him or her an important chance to learn something.(不要对哭泣反应过度。当孩子们得不到他们想要的东西时，他们的自然行为是哭泣。如果每次孩子哭的时候你都做出反应，你可能会剥夺他或她学习东西的重要机会。)”说明不要在每次孩子哭泣的时候有所反应，选项G“作为父母，你需要知道什么时候该安慰孩子，什么时候该走开。”承接上文，每次孩子哭泣的时候，父母应该做的事情。故选G项。
【19题详解】
上文“Prepare for a fight. At the beginning, children's demands will increase when they find out parents are not going to give them the new toys they want. When it happens, be careful not to give in just because the child shouts.(准备战斗。一开始，当孩子发现父母不会给他们想要的新玩具时，他们的需求会增加。当这种情况发生时，要注意不要因为孩子大喊大叫就屈服。)”说明父母不要因为孩子大声叫喊就做出让步，而是其他做法，选项A“相反，要等到孩子平静下来。”承接上文，父母在孩子大声叫喊时，不要屈服，而是等孩子平静下来，故选A项。
【20题详解】
上文“Your child will probably be upset when you begin making changes.(当你开始做出改变时，你的孩子可能会感到不安。)”说明你开始改变时，孩子会不高兴，选项B“这不一定是坏事。”承接上文，你开始改变时，孩子会感到不安，这未必是坏事，并引出下文“It means the requirements are getting stricter and that your child is adjusting(适应). Remember: give it time, and don't give up.(这意味着要求越来越严格，你的孩子正在适应。记住：给它时间，不要放弃。)”。故选B项。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Once upon a time, there was a forest which was ruled perfectly by a king “The Lion”. His reputation (声望) spread to kingdoms of other forests. In order to fill the position of kingdom minister, the Lion announced a competition and the news was quickly sent to other kingdoms.
Having learned about the minister’s post, a rabbit rushed to her friend, “The Fox”. “Dear friend! In the neighboring kingdom, a competition is going to be held next Friday for the position of minister. No one can compete with you in terms of the level of your knowledge. If you set out two days earlier to the competition, you will certainly be the minister of the kingdom,” said the rabbit.
The fox prepared to leave for the competition. His long-lasting desire to become a minister was going to come true soon. Although the fox had not yet gained the position, he was full of joy and lost in deep thought. The fox was expecting that he would become the minister of the forest and provide the most essential information to the king.
In fact, the foolish fox left only one day earlier to reach the kingdom. On his way to the neighboring forest, he found that there was a radish (萝卜) field with ripen radishes to eat in the middle of the forest. The moment the fox felt hungry, he dug (挖) the field and ate the radishes happily.
Later the fox continued his journey, and he found a lake full of pure water which was a good place for him to have a swim. The fox swam in the lake and came across a group of crabs (螃蟹). Though the fox was not hungry, he created space for the crabs in the stomach.
With a heavily loaded belly, the fox once again continued the journey. However, he could not walk at great speed as before. He could not even move forward freely.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Feeling very sleepy, the fox rested under a big tree and fell into a heavy sleep. When the fox awoke, he realized how he fell into a deep sleep. The fox started running immediately and reached the place where the competition would be held. But by the time the fox reached the place, the competition had finished and a new minister had been selected. All the participants had already returned to their own forests. Longing for the position, the fox gathered all his strength to ask for a meeting with the king eagerly.
He requested the Lion to give him one more chance. And he explained how fit he was for the position and what had happened during his journey. The king calmly rejected the fox’s proposal, saying, “The minister is supposed to be the person who is responsible and punctual. If you couldn’t attend the competition on time, how could you help me rule the kingdom in the future ” Failing to change the king’s mind, the fox returned to his own forest, frustrated and regretful.

World Series, the United States
A century’s worth of the World Series has seen many exciting matches. To get to the series, each of the 32 teams in the major leagues must experience a 162-game season, followed by three playoffs. The first is a best-of-five series, followed by two best-of-seven series.
Super Bowl, the United States
The Super Bowl is so big that even the commercial advertisements are worth watching.When it was held for the first time in 1967, there were plenty of empty seats and it attracted a small TV audience.

24 Hours of Le Mans, France
Skill,speed and stamina are the three dimensions that mark the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The competition is set on a non-permanent track at Circuit de la Sarthe near the city of Le Mans in France.

My son Joey was born with club feet. The doctors assured us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally — but would never run very well. The first three years of his life, he had several operations on the feet. By the time he was eight, you wouldn’t know he had a problem when you saw him walk .
The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to run as well as the other children. So he didn’t know.
In seventh grade he decided to go out for the cross-country team. Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others — perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential to score points for the school. We didn’t tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didn’t know.
He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day — even the day he had a 103-degree fever. I was worried, so I went to look for him after school. I found him running all alone. I asked him how he felt. “Okay,” he said. He had two more miles to go. The sweat ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. Yet he looked straight ahead and kept running. We never told him he couldn’t run four miles with a 103-degree fever. So he didn’t know.
Two weeks later, the names of the team runners were called. Joey was number six on the list.
Joey had made the team. He was in seventh grade — the other six team members were all eighth-graders. We never told him he shouldn’t expect to make the team. We never told him he couldn’t do it. We never told him he couldn’t do it...so he didn’t know. He just did it.
4. What does the underlined word in Para.1 mean
A. A game. B. A disability. C. A stick. D. An association.
5. Why didn’t the parents tell Joey the truth
A. Because they forgot to tell him the truth. B. Because they liked cheating him.
C. Because they didn’t want to hurt him. D. Because he didn’t want to know.
6. What is the best word to describe Joey
A. Lazy. B. Intelligent. C. Determined. D. Dependent.
7. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. The Great Parents B. The Road to Success
C. The Club Feet D. He Didn’t Know

Physical education, or PE, 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 study 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. PE classes act as a public health measure to encourage physical activities and help teens have healthy weights.
Not doing sports 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.
8. According to paragraph 2, what does physical education in high school mean
A. Making teens attach importance to exercise later.
B. Removing the stress faced by teens at school.
C. Getting teens to encourage adults to exercise.
D. Helping teens learn to make good plans.
9. What does the underlined word “hindered” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Measured. B. Prevented.
C. Shown. D. Caused.
10. According to the PCFSN, doing sports ________.
A. means making students choose between sports and studies
B. helps students make good use of all their time
C. means students adjust to their studies better
D. helps students do better in their studies
11. What is the text mainly about
A. Why high school students should receive physical education.
B. Why some schools consider physical education important.
C. How schools can help students love doing sports.
D. How high school students can live a better life.
D
Life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have vanished by 2050. Instead, people will choose a programme from a “menu” and a computer will send the programme directly to the television. By 2050, music, films, programmes, newspapers and books will come to us in the similar way.
In many places, agriculture is developing quickly and people are growing fruit and vegetables for export. This uses a lot of water. Therefore, there could be serious shortages of water. Some scientist predict that water could be the cause of wars if we don’t act now.
In the future, cars will run on new, clean fuels (燃料) and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed and there won’t be any accidents. Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination. Also, by 2050, space planes will fly people from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.
Some big companies now prefer to use robots that do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and work 24 hours a day. They are also easy to control. And they never argue with people. They can be easily used in a variety of places—factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.
Scientists will have discovered how to control genes (基因). Scientists have already produced clones (克隆) of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look and how they behave. Scientists will be able to do these things, but should they
12. Which of the following best explains “vanished” underlined in paragraph 1

Stick with the program. Your child will probably be upset when you begin making changes.____20____It means the requirements are getting stricter and that your child is adjusting(适应). Remember: give it time, and don't give up.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Once upon a time, there was a forest which was ruled perfectly by a king “The Lion”. His reputation (声望) spread to kingdoms of other forests. In order to fill the position of kingdom minister, the Lion announced a competition and the news was quickly sent to other kingdoms.
Having learned about the minister’s post, a rabbit rushed to her friend, “The Fox”. “Dear friend! In the neighboring kingdom, a competition is going to be held next Friday for the position of minister. No one can compete with you in terms of the level of your knowledge. If you set out two days earlier to the competition, you will certainly be the minister of the kingdom,” said the rabbit.
The fox prepared to leave for the competition. His long-lasting desire to become a minister was going to come true soon. Although the fox had not yet gained the position, he was full of joy and lost in deep thought. The fox was expecting that he would become the minister of the forest and provide the most essential information to the king.
In fact, the foolish fox left only one day earlier to reach the kingdom. On his way to the neighboring forest, he found that there was a radish (萝卜) field with ripen radishes to eat in the middle of the forest. The moment the fox felt hungry, he dug (挖) the field and ate the radishes happily.
Later the fox continued his journey, and he found a lake full of pure water which was a good place for him to have a swim. The fox swam in the lake and came across a group of crabs (螃蟹). Though the fox was not hungry, he created space for the crabs in the stomach.
With a heavily loaded belly, the fox once again continued the journey. However, he could not walk at great speed as before. He could not even move forward freely.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请在答题卡相应位置作答。
Feeling very sleepy, the fox rested under a big tree and fell into a heavy sleep.
