【原文】M: As the world holds its breath, waiting to see if the coronavirus is going to be defeated or if we will experience a second wave, many of us are looking to the future and find how our lives have changed. The virus has caused many people to work from home. If companies decide to continue allowing this, it will ease the burden on public transport. Many train and subway systems in major cities were struggling with the number of daily passengers. With restrictions and social distancing in place on many modes of transport, people have been shifting towards cycling as an alternative way to get around. During June 2020, the UK saw cycling levels rise by 300%. This was pushed by a government policy that allowed people to buy a bike tax-free, allowing savings from 25% up to 39% depending on the cost of the bike. The coronavirus has also seen significant impact on jobs, with over 650,000 people in the UK having lost their roles during lockdown, mainly in the retail and service section. However, other sections, such as technology, were much better as people try to find technical solutions to lockdown, such as video calling. Although it has been a shock, the world has adapted quickly to coronavirus, and many are hoping that these changes are here to stay, highlighting the fact that traditional ways of living and working should remain in the past.

B
In a recent game of pickleball, my teammate and I were falling far behind other teams. It was her turn to serve. We were both standing behind the baseline, paddles(球拍) up in ready position, when she nodded at me and said, “In it to win it.”
“Really?” I looked at her, surprised by her use of a catchy expression that was new to me. My inner self was never ready to accept even the tiniest suggestion that we should be trying to win the game.
In my life off the pickleball court, I enjoy yoga, folk dancing—anything but games with winners and losers, and I always prefer to be a observer rather than a participant in the world of sports.
Then pickleball came along. Suddenly, I didn’t want to be an observer any longer. I wanted to be a player myself. Like many people, I was first drawn to the game simply as a safe COVID-19 activity. Playing outdoors with people in my neighborhood allowed me to break out of social isolation(隔离).
But my addiction to the game comes from the sport’s low barrier of entry. The equipment isn’t particularly expensive. It’s a relatively easy game to learn, and a participant doesn’t need to be especially strong, tall or fast. Little wonder that everyone can now be seen throwing a green, orange or yellow plastic ball with holes in it across a net.
Pickleball is the first game I’ve ever wanted to win. I think it’s because of the excitement I feel when I hit an unreturnable ball down the middle of the court and score a point. Participating in a sport myself rather than cheering for others provides real proof that I can still work hard to achieve goals.
So, I’ve made a long-term commitment to it. I am embracing the game as my pickleball buddies embrace me. I’d forgotten how much fun it is to socialize while, doing something active. In that playful space of the court, I am facing directly my fears of winning and losing. In the meantime, doing something outside of my comfort zone feels magical. Now I wonder what contests I might be brave enough to enter next.
24. Why was the author surprised by what her teammate said in the recent game?
A. She thought her teammate was too weak. B. She hadn’t considered winning or losing.
C. She didn’t know what her teammate meant. D. She misunderstood the rules of the game.
25. What is the main reason for the author’s love for pickleball?
A. It is what she is good at. B. It allows her to make new friends.
C. It is affordable and accessible. D. It has many health benefits.
26. How has the author benefited from playing pickleball?
A. She has overcome her fears of competitive sports. B. She has realized her own limitations.
C. She has become a more energetic person. D. She has recognized her talents for sports.
27. What does the author plan to do?
A. Become a professional athlete. B. Recommend pickleball to more friends.
C. Explore some extreme sports. D. Continue playing pickleball.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. A 27. D
【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者选择参与匹克球运动以及匹克球带给作者的好处。
24. 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“My inner self was never ready to accept even the tiniest suggestion that we should be trying to win the game.(我的内心从来没有准备好接受哪怕是最微小的建议，那就是我们应该努力赢得比赛)”可知，作者对队友的鼓励下意识是抗拒的，因为她没想过比赛的输赢，故选B。
25. 细节理解题。根据第五段中“But my addiction to the game comes from the sport’s low barrier of entry. The equipment isn’t particularly expensive. It’s a relatively easy game to learn, and a participant doesn’t need to be especially strong, tall or fast.(但我对这项运动的迷恋来自于这项运动的低门槛。设备不是特别贵。这是一个相对容易学习的游戏，参与者不需要特别强壮、高或快。)”可知，匹克球运动真正吸引作者的地方是它入门门槛低，装备不贵又容易上手，故选C。
26. 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Participating in a sport myself rather than cheering for others provides real proof that I can still work hard to achieve goals.(自己参加一项运动，而不是为别人加油，这证明了我仍然可以努力实现目标)”及最后一段“I am facing directly my fears of winning and losing.(我直面对输赢的恐惧)”可知，打匹克球让作者意识到自己可以努力去实现目标，也帮助她克服了对输赢的恐惧心理，故选A。
27. 细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“So, I’ve made a long-term commitment to it.(所以，我对它做了一个长期的承诺)”可知，作者是打算继续打匹克球的，故选D。
C
Generation Z athletes have emerged in 2021 as global well-being leaders and advocates，challenging outdated ideas about what it takes to be an athlete.Many of these young sportspeople have gone beyond their sport.Through social media，they have opened up conversations about performance, mental health and the impact of the media.
Performing at the highest level can put huge amounts of pressure on young athletes. Simone Biles decided to put her mental health first at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics when she withdrew from an event.
The emergence of the athlete’s authentic voice during their career is new and growing.Social media has expanded and accelerated a properly authentic voice that is also more personal and openly political.These generation Z players，born into or at the top of the social media boom，can connect directly with their millions of followers on social media to share personal insights.
It is unusual for active athletes to be so transparent about their health-particularly，their mental health. At the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, Biles made a rare exception. She used social media to explain an attack of the “twisties” and the impact on her performance and mental health.
By taking control of their own stories，these athletes have broken the idea that top sports stars-with their extreme athleticism, dedication and seeming invincibility(无敌)-are somehow superhuman. Elite athletes carry enormous burdens of responsibility and winning doesn’t come before everything else.As Simone Biles made clear：“We are not just entertainment.We are human.”

A. Generation Z athletes have become global leaders.
B. Some athletes don’t know what it takes to be an athlete.

29. Simone Biles withdrew from the Tokyo 2020 Olympics due to ________ .

31. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?

B. Athletes should be supermen.
C. Victory isn’t everything for an athlete.
D. Sports should be viewed as entertainment.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. C
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了Z一代运动员在2021年成为全球健康的领导者和倡导者，挑战了关于如何成为一名运动员的过时观念。并通过西蒙·拜尔斯退出2020年东京奥运会的例子说明了运动员的真实声音在其职业生涯中出现是新的和不断增长的。
28. 细节理解题。根据第一段“Through social media, they have opened up conversations about performance, mental health and the impact of the media.(通过社交媒体，他们开启了关于表现、心理健康和媒体影响的对话)”可知，许多年轻运动员通过社交媒体发表他们的观点。故选D。
29. 细节理解题。根据第二段“Performing at the highest level can put huge amounts of pressure on young athletes. Simone Biles decided to put her mental health first at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics when she withdrew from an event.(在最高水平上的表现会给年轻运动员带来巨大的压力。西蒙·拜尔斯退出2020年东京奥运会时决定将心理健康放在首位)”可知，西蒙·拜尔斯因为精神压力退出了2020年东京奥运会。故选A。
30. 推理判断题。根据原文最后一段“Elite athletes carry enormous burdens of responsibility and winning doesn’t come before everything else.As Simone Biles made clear：“We are not just entertainment.We are human.”(优秀的运动员肩负着巨大的责任，胜利并不是最重要的。正如西蒙·拜尔斯所说：“我们不仅仅是娱乐。我们是人类。”)”可知,作者对西蒙妮.比尔斯的态度是支持的。故选B。
31. 主旨大意题。根据最后一段内容“By taking control of their own stories, these athletes have broken the idea that top sports stars— with their extreme athleticism, dedication and seeming invincibility — are somehow superhuman. Elite athletes carry enormous burdens of responsibility and winning doesn’t come before everything else. As Simone Biles made clear: “We are not just entertainment. We are human.”(通过掌控自己的故事，这些运动员打破了人们的观念，即顶级体育明星——拥有极端的运动热情、奉献精神和似乎不可战胜的形象——是超人。优秀的运动员肩负着巨大的责任，胜利并不是最重要的。正如西蒙·拜尔斯所说：“我们不仅仅是娱乐。我们是人类。”)”可知，作者在最后一段想要阐述的主旨是胜利不是运动员的一切。故选C。
D
As the name suggests, alpine football, a variation of the world’s most popular competitive sport, is played on mountain slopes (斜坡) in order to make it more difficult.
Most competitive sports usually take place on level playing fields, but in the case of alpine football, one of the main conditions is that the field must be steep (陡峭的). It sounds totally impossible, but a group of football fans in the Austrian Alps claim that it’s the best way to play their favorite sport. They got the idea for alpine football during the 2014 World Cup, while watching a boring game and brainstorming for ways to make it more challenging.
“We were watching the games and found them very boring,” alpine football co-inventor Franz Mair said. “Then, Peppi Knunz, the other inventor of the sport, said to me, ‘The way they play isn’t hard enough and they should try running up and down our mountains. They’d soon be out of breath.’ And then we thought they might not even be able to play, but we would manage it!”
Flat ground is very hard to find in the Alps, so it’s most often used for more important things than playing football. Therefore, fans of the sport in such mountainous areas decided to turn lemons into lemonade and use the mountain slope to invent a new game. Now, locals take pride in only playing alpine football.
“Anyone can play on flat ground,” says Alois Gantner, trainer of the Supa BUrschis team. “In Montafon, we only play on the steepest slopes we can find.”
The rules of alpine football are the same as for the regular football, with the only difference being the need for strong legs and great energy to fight against gravity on the uneven field.
32. What inspired the group of football fans to invent alpine football?
A. The mountainous area in the Alps. B. Their great passion for football.
C. A boring game they watched. D. A desire to compete in the World Cup.
33. What might be the biggest challenge for alpine football?
A. Finding a suitable field. B. Fighting against gravity.
C. Deciding on the game rules. D. Keeping normal breath.
34. How might Alois feel when saying the words in paragraph 5?
A. proud. B. desperate. C. helpless. D. considerate.
35. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Alpine football shares most of the rules of regular football.
B. All the football matches don’t take place on level fields.
C. Both alpine football and regular football are popular in Montafon.
D. Flat ground in Alps is often used for important things like playing football.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. A
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。因为平地足球的无聊，弗朗茨·梅尔发明了高山足球，它是在山坡上进行的，以增加比赛的难度。
32. 细节理解题。根据第三段首句““We were watching the games and found them very boring,” alpine football co-inventor Franz Mair said. (高山足球的共同发明人弗朗茨·梅尔说：“我们一直在看比赛，发现它们非常无聊。”)”可知，他们看的无聊的比赛启发了他们发明高山足球。故选C。
33. 细节理解题。根据末段“The rules of alpine football are the same as for the regular football, with the only difference being the need for strong legs and great energy to fight against gravity on the uneven field. (高山足球的规则与普通足球相同，唯一的区别是需要强壮的腿和巨大的能量来对抗不平坦的场地上的重力。)”可知，高山足球最大的挑战是对抗不平坦的场地上的重力。故选B。
34. 推理判断题。根据第五段““Anyone can play on flat ground,” says Alois Gantner, trainer of the Supa BUrschis team. “In Montafon, we only play on the steepest slopes we can find.” (“任何人都可以在平地上踢球，”Supa BUrschis队的教练阿洛伊斯·甘特纳说。“在蒙塔丰，我们只在我们能找到的最陡峭的斜坡上玩。”)”可知，在阿洛伊斯·甘特纳看来，任何人都可以在平地上踢球，而他们还可在最陡峭的斜坡上玩，言语中透露着骄傲。故选A。
35. 推理判断题。根据末段“The rules of alpine football are the same as for the regular football, with the only difference being the need for strong legs and great energy to fight against gravity on the uneven field. (高山足球的规则与普通足球相同，唯一的区别是需要强壮的腿和巨大的能量来对抗不平坦的场地上的重力。)”可知，高山足球的规则与普通足球，除了对抗不平坦的场地上的重力之外，大部分相同。故选A。

Why Do Speed Skaters Wear Glasses?
The reasons why skiers and snowboarders wear glasses might seem a little obvious, especially if you’ve ever hit the slopes yourself. Sunlight reflected off the snow can make it hard to see. 36 Special colored lenses (镜片) create contrast, so your whole path won’t look like one flat expanse of whiteness. Not to mention that eyewear protects your eyes from any snow coming into your eyes.
Olympic speed skaters, meanwhile, are racing inside on smooth ice. 37
According to NBC Olympics, glasses can increase visibility on indoor tracks, too, and some skaters’ lenses are used to help with that. And while the ice may look smooth from a distance, those sharp blades (冰刀) can kick up ice chips. 38 In the event of a crash, shatter-proof glasses (防摔眼镜) also protect skaters’ eyes from blades and body parts.
39 Short-track speed skaters can go as fast as 30 miles per hour or more, and long-track speed skaters sometimes hit about 35 miles per hour. The wind resistance generated by such speed is enough to make any skater’s eyes start streaming with tears. Imagine leaning your head out the window of a car that’s going around 35 miles per hour on a cold day: You’d probably want to be wearing glasses, too.
Glasses aren’t a requirement. 40 Belgium’s Stijn Desmet, for example, has raced in Beijing without eyewear, as has China’s Zhang Chutong.
A. So why do they wear glasses?
B. UV rays can even damage your eyesight.
C. Definitely all the speed skaters wear glasses.
D. But the biggest reason just might be their speed.
E. You’ll occasionally see speed skaters without them.
F. That could pose problems if they end up in your eyes.
G. Athletes are all smiling and praising quality of glasses.
【答案】36. B 37. A 38. F 39. D 40. E
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章简要介绍了滑冰运动员在运动场上需要佩戴眼镜的原因。
36. 根据上文“Sunlight reflected off the snow can make it hard to see.(雪反射的阳光会使人很难看见。)”可知此处上下文说的是阳光对眼睛的伤害，与B项“UV rays can even damage your eyesight. (紫外线甚至会损害你的视力。)”表达的含义一致，故选B项。
37. 根据下文“According to NBC Olympics, glasses can increase visibility on indoor tracks, too, and some skaters’ lenses are used to help with that. (据NBC Olympics报道，眼镜也可以提高室内跑道上的能见度，一些滑冰运动员的镜片也有助于提高能见度。)”可知下文在解释为什么室内滑冰运动员也要戴眼镜，与A项“So why do they wear glasses? (那么他们为什么要戴眼镜呢？)”表达的含义一致，故选A项。
38. 根据上文“while the ice may look smooth from a distance, those sharp blades (冰刀) can kick up ice chips (虽然从远处看冰可能很光滑，但那些锋利的刀片可能会激起冰块)”可知，此处上下文说的是刀片可能会激起的冰块的危害，分析待选项，F项“That could pose problems if they end up in your eyes. (如果它们最终进入你的眼睛，那可能会带来问题。)”表达的含义符合语境，故选F项。
39. 根据下文“Short-track speed skaters can go as fast as 30 miles per hour or more, and long-track speed skaters sometimes hit about 35 miles per hour. The wind resistance generated by such speed is enough to make any skater’s eyes start streaming with tears. ( 短道速滑运动员的速度可以达到每小时30英里或更多，而长道速滑选手有时达到每小时35英里左右。这样的速度所产生的风阻足以让任何一位滑冰选手开始流眼泪)”可知此处上下文在解释运动员在高速度状态下需要戴眼镜避免流泪的原因，与D项“But the biggest reason just might be their speed. (但最大的原因可能是它们的速度。)”表达的含义一致，故选D项。
40. 根据上文“Glasses aren’t a requirement. ( 眼镜不是必须佩戴的)”以及下文“Belgium’s Stijn Desmet, for example, has raced in Beijing without eyewear, as has China’s Zhang Chutong. ( 例如，比利时选手斯泰恩·德梅和中国选手张楚桐在北京比赛时都没有戴眼镜。)”可知此处上下文说的是在滑冰比赛中，眼镜不是必须佩戴的，与E项“You’ll occasionally see speed skaters without them. (你偶尔会看到不佩戴它们的速滑运动员)”表达的含义一致，故选E项。

第二节　(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Last week, our school 56 (hold) a basketball match against another school. Near the end of the match, they only had an advantage over us. When our captain got the ball, one of them pretended 57 (knock) down by him. Upon seeing that, our captain tried to help him up, but the match was over and they won. We lost the game. 58 , we were all satisfied with the result because we went all out.
From this match, I learn that being 59 winner doesn’t mean gaining while a loser doesn’t mean 60 (lose) everything. What really counts 61 (be) the spirit, not the result. As long as we try 62 (we) best, there is no need in regretting. In reality, a true loser is even more precious than a false winner. Without that match, I 63 have learnt the importance of spirit.
To sum up, a true winner is to a match what water is to a fish. It is not the result but the process 64 matters. Life without spirit is like sailing without a compass, so be a true winner and you will find its 65 (important).
【答案】
56. held 57. to be knocked 58. However 59. a 60. losing 61. is 62. our 63. wouldn’t/couldn’t/shouldn’t/mightn’t 64. that 65. importance
【解析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者从一场篮球比赛中学到了精神的重要性。
56. 考查时态。句意：上周，我们学校与另一所学校举行了一场篮球赛。根据句中的Last week可知，这里表示过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，空格处填入谓语动词过去式held。故填held。
57. 考查不定式。句意：当我们的队长拿到球时，其中一人假装被他撞倒了。pretend to do sth.意为“假装做某事”。根据空后的by him，逻辑主语one of them和knock down之间是动宾关系，应用不定式的被动形式。故填to be knocked。
58. 考查副词。句意：然而，我们都对结果感到满意，因为我们全力以赴。根据前一句“We lost the game.(我们输掉了比赛。)”可知，前后文是转折关系。however意为“然而”，为副词作状语，放在句首首字母大写。故填However。
59. 考查冠词。句意：从这场比赛中，我学到的是，成为赢家并不意味着获益，而一个输者并不意味着失去一切。根据句中的a loser并结合句意，这里表示泛指，且winner的发音以辅音音素开头，应用不定冠词a。故填a。
60. 考查动名词。句意参考上题。mean doing sth.意为“意味着做某事”，动名词作宾语。故填losing。
61. 考查主谓一致和时态。句意：真正重要的是精神，而不是结果。根据上下文和句意，这里应用一般现在时。分析句子结构，What really counts是主语从句，当what引导主语从句且主句是“主系表”结构时，系动词应和表语保持一致。根据空后的the spirit，be动词应用is。故填is。
62. 考查代词。句意：只要我们尽力，就没有必要后悔。try one’s best意为“尽力”，所以空处应用we的形容词性物主代词形式our。故填our。
63. 考查虚拟语气。句意：如果没有那场比赛，我就不会懂得精神的重要性。分析句子结构，本句中Without引出了含蓄虚拟条件，且这里表示对过去情况的假设，所以谓语动词应用“would/could/should/might have+过去分词”的形式，且这里表示否定，应用“would/could/should/might not have+过去分词”。故填wouldn’t/couldn’t/shouldn’t/mightn’t。
64. 考查强调句。句意：重要的不是结果，而是过程。分析句子结构，去掉It is和空处，句子的结构和意义依然完整，所以这里是It is/was...that/who...强调句型，被强调部分是主语not the result but the process，所以应用that连接。故填that。
65. 考查名词。句意：没有精神的生活就像没有指南针的航行，所以做一个真正的赢家，你会发现它的重要性。根据空前的its，空处应用名词。importance意为“重要性，重要”。故填importance。

There are some reasons why kids should play sports. Firstly, doing sports is a major stress reliever. Kids can sometimes easily get stressed. Sports allow them to let all the tension out of their bodies by engaging in strict exercises and fun activities. Secondly, they will develop skills through sports and become more self-confident. As their confidence improves, it may also show up in other areas of their life, so they will feel a much stronger sense of self.

67. 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
I entered my freshman year of high school with a philosophy: work hard and do whatever 1 could succeed at. I thought I would make some impressive achievements in this way. I wouldn’t waste my time on areas I was not good at.
And this philosophy served me well. I worked hard on my lessons and piano practice, which I had talent for, and got the results I wanted. usually in the shape of good grades and rewards. My friends laughed about my all-or-nothing attitude, but I thought it was the only sure path to success.
At the beginning of the second year of high school. I fully intended to keep the same attitude. Then I joined the school cross-country running team. a year after I had watched cross-country races. I joined mainly because my brother was on the team; he was entering his senior year, and I wanted to spend more time with him before he left for college. Also, many of my friends were on the team. and they had been trying to persuade me to join them for months.
When I came to the first practice. I was filled with optimism and dreamed of being an excellent runner. But as the distance we ran each practice gradually increased. I realized however hard I tried. I was the slowest on the team. And the muscle injury was often intolerable. What was the point of putting me through so much pain? I’d never be an excellent runner. For the first few weeks. I had been thinking of giving up.
Then we had our first cross-country meet. When we got off the bus at Lamoille High School. dressed in our blue uniforms with our team name shown on the shirts. the sight of the other teams warming up made me anxious. I thought I would let my team down. And I guessed my coach and teammates would be disappointed at my performance and blame me. This thought made me decide to quit the cross-country running team after the race.
Now. looking at the tough course made up of a series of short. steep(陡峭的)hills. I stood silently with my teammates.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Together, we jogged to the starting line. We had a quick warm-up before the race. When the race started, I felt enormous pressure on my shoulders. I was increasingly frustrated as I watched more and more runners rush past me. I tried my best, but I still the slowest on the team. I even couldn’t find any runners around me. I thought they may be running to the final line now. It was a tiring course. Finally, I stopped running and struggled to walk up the last challenging hill. Just then, I heard people calling my name from the top of the hill.
Surprisingly, my coach and teammates were smiling and cheering for me. I was confused and embarrassed because my performance was terrible. Anyway, I stopped caring about my performance and ran to the final point with all my might. As I was jogging up the last section of the hill, my coach and teammates all applauded me for my efforts. Not until then did I realize my coach and teammates didn’t care how fast I ran . I learned I shouldn’t attach too much importance to the result. In fact, the process is more important. After that meet, I continued cross-country and focused on enjoying the journey.
