一、阅读理解。
My mother has always lived by some simple rules:Go to church every Sunday,help people in need,and don’t worry about unchangeable things.These simple rules have allowed her to live a content life,and in doing so,she sets an example for her children to follow.However,I had broken all of these rules by the time I set off for college. It was September,and I should have been ecstatic as I stood on my college campus saying goodbye to my parents and embarking my new independent life.However,I was just quietly crying.I had never been away from home without family.My mom hugged me,“Little girl,we’ll come back to get you next weekend and you can come home for a visit!”
My homesickness made my freshman year in college difficult,and I comforted myself by throwing myself into my academics.I spent all my time studying,including weekends when everyone else attended parties.I had always been a good student.I would not settle anything but an A,and when I got a 4.0 my first semester,a friend said to me,“That’s great,but you can only go down from there!” Suddenly,I was more driven than ever.
My mom was worried about my social life.She was happy that I got good grades but had always told me there was more to life.What about faith?What about helping others?She encouraged me to go to church.She believed that weekly attendance was the answer to my pathetic social situation.
Sometimes,I find myself being critical (批评的) of my mother’s simple ways.It’s difficult with busy schedules to go to church every Sunday.And while I admire my mom’s ability to help anyone in need,I complain that I do not have as much time as I wish to follow her example.Her simple rules have served her well,and though I don’t follow them as much as I should,they are there like a beacon(灯塔),calling for me to follow.
1.The underlined word “ecstatic” in Paragraph 2 probably means____. A.teary
复习专用,欢迎下载! 最新审定版小学资料 B.excited C.homesick D.sad
2.What can we infer from the third paragraph? A.The author didn’t like any social activities. B.The author was angry with what her friend said. C.The author had a difficult time learning in college. D.The author couldn’t adapt to university life at first. 3.What is the author’s opinion about her mother’s life rules? A.She values the rules because they are guiding in her life. B.She ignores the rules because they are meaningless to her. C.She supports the rules because they are suitable for her. D.She disapproves the rules because they are difficult to follow. 参考答案: 1.B; 2.D; 3.A 解析:
作者母亲的生活法则虽然简单,但却蕴含人生智慧,就像灯塔,指引作者在人生道路上前进。 1.B 词义猜测题。由本句后面表示转折的“However,I was just quietly crying.”可知,ecstatic应与crying所表达的情绪相反,意为“兴奋的”,故选B项。
2.D 推理判断题。由第三段,特别是第一句“My homesickness made my freshman year in college difficult,and I comforted myself by throwing myself into my academics.”可推断,作者由于想家,大一只能通过不断的学习来安慰自己,故在大学一开始,作者不能很好地适应大学生活,故选D项。
3.A 细节理解题。由最后一段的最后一句 “Her simple rules have served her well,and though I don’t follow them as much as I should,they are there like a beacon,calling for me to follow.”可知,作者虽然不能完全遵守母亲的生活法则,但它们会像灯塔一样不断指引作者,故选A项。 二、单项选择。

4 Key Strategies for Running to Lose Weight
As one of the most active exercises out there, running is an extremely efficient way to burn calories and lose weight. A 150-pound person will burn approximately 100 calories per mile when running. 1 1. Healthy Eating is the First Step
If you want to lose weight by running, keep in mind that you’ll only lose pounds if you burn more calories than you consume. To lose a pound, you have to burn, through exercise or life functions, about 3500 calories. 2 Runners do have special nutrition needs, but the basic principles for healthy eating still apply. Try choosing smaller portions of high-fat and high-calorie foods and eating more whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. 2. Follow a training schedule
Sticking to a training schedule is a simple way to stay motivated to run. 3 So it’s much harder to postpone or skip workouts. Following a schedule can also help you avoid a running injury by not increasing your mileage too quickly. 3. Run regularly
If you don’t want to follow a schedule, you still need to have some consistency with your running because you won’t lose weight by running once a week. It’s best
复习专用,欢迎下载! 最新审定版小学资料 to get some activity every day. 4 If you find that your motivation to run is suffering, follow some necessary tips to get inspired. 4. 5
Incorporating speed work or interval training (running at a very fast speed for short intervals of time) into your running routine can also help your weight loss efforts. Speed work burns a great amount of calories in a short period of time. You’ll also increase your muscle mass, causing you to burn more calories throughout the day.
A. Keep it challenging B. Eat for Performance
C. You’ll know exactly what you need to do every day and each run builds on the next.
D. So you’ll need to combine running with a healthy diet.
E. If you’re hoping to use running to lose weight, here’s some advice on how to be successful.
F. Here are ways to improve your running motivation.
G. But if that’s not possible, try to shoot for at least 3―4 times per week. 【语篇解读】跑步是很好的减肥的方法,但是怎样才是正确的跑步方法,文章给出一些建议。
