1、一、阅读理解一、阅读理解 Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from leaving home and running in the open air. However, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather helps improve ones performance. Many people say runnin

2、g in the winter can be difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find it easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate and the bodys dehydration (脱水)

3、 levels are lower than those in warmer conditions. The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from sports scientists at St Marys University in London. John Brewer is a professor of Sport, Health and Applied Science at St Marys. For this study, he and other r

4、esearchers put a group of people into a room they called an environmental chamber. The researchers then recreated summer and winter weather conditions in the room. The test subjects were asked to run 10km under both conditions. Brewer says he and his team recorded biological measurements of the runn

5、ers. Weve got a group of subjects into the environmental chamber, weve changed the conditions to replicate the summer or winter and weve got them to run 10km under both of those conditions and taken various measurements on each runner while theyve completed their 10km. Brewer says every movement run

Drama in educationthe use of embodied make-believe has proved to be a highly effective teaching and learning to

9、ol, from ancient Greek times to the present day. Tell me and I will forget, the Confucian proverb goes. Show me and I will remember. Involve me and I will understand. However, the status of drama on the curriculum (课程) at primary and post-primary level in Ireland has been in dispute for some years.

10、Drama is an art form and also a powerful pedagogical (教育学的) tool. Yet its frequent use has made it difficult to define exactly what drama in education means in a working classroom. At primary level, drama is a good way of learning feelings, knowledge and ideas, and in examining relationships, which

11、would help students understand the world. The primary teacher should try to improve the childs ability of make-believe and use it into other areas of knowledge. So creating drama is more important performance, exploring life through the creation of fiction rather than developing a piece of work for

12、performance. The results include the development of social, personal and drama skills. The way in which the child acquires knowledge through drama is as important as the knowledge itself. Dympna Byrne, a primary teacher, uses drama in every subject she teaches. A lot of the focus in primary educatio

13、n is to encourage children to be active in their own learning, and drama is a brilliant tool for that, she says. Byrne says the benefits of drama as a teaching tool can be easily found in subjects such as English (it helps with writing) or history (it can bring old things to life), but it is the way

14、 in which this type of learning emerges (呈现) that is most important. Through competitions and performances, we can make the students interested in drama outside the classroom, because what really excites students about drama is that it is fun, she says. (1).The author of the passage uses the proverb

15、 to show that _. A.drama originated from ancient timesB.drama is difficult to understand C.drama is beneficial to studentsD.drama does harm to pupils (2).In which way will drama benefit the students? A.Make them more humorous.B.Help them have many more ideas. C.Let them experience many kinds of feel

16、ings.D.Show them what the world is like. (3).According to Byrne, what is most important in learning? A.How the students learn knowledge.B.What knowledge the students learn. C.Which subject can help with writing.D.When the student study the old things. (4).What could be the best title for the passage

17、? A.Drama in the Classroom is a Primary Concern B.How Teachers Teach Students to Make Drama C.How Teachers Improve the Childs AbilityD.How Teachers Make Lessons Fun with Drama If you are invited to a wedding, baby shower or other celebrations, you will be expected to bring a gift. Unless you know th

18、e host very well, the gift should be modest in value, about $ 25 or so. For a wedding, the bride will have registered (登记) at one or two local department stores, indicating the items she prefers. You can buy the couple a gift that isnt listed, but most people buy something listed on the registry (记录

19、簿). If you buy an item listed on the registry, be sure to tell the store that you are doing this, so that the couple doesnt receive duplicate (重复的)gifts. For a baby shower, bring a gift appropriate for a new born baby. If you wish to give a gift when you leave to return to your country, the best gif

20、t is something unique to your country. It does not need to be especially valuable or rare. Possibilities include a book about your country, an inexpensive piece of handicraft (手工艺品), or art, or something else that reflects your culture. If the children collect coins and stamps, they would be very pl

21、eased with a set of your country, coins or a selection of stamps from your country. If you owe a debt of deep gratitude to an American host family, a common way of repaying it is to take the family to a form of entertainment, such as a baseball, basketball, or a good restaurant. Gift giving is not a

22、s important in America as it is in other countries, so there is nothing wrong with not giving a gift. If you need help, talk to a sales, person at a department store. Tell them about the person who will be receiving the gift and the reason for the gift, and they will help you find something appropri

23、ate. (1).Why is collecting coins mentioned in the third paragraph? A.To show the important role of coins as gifts. B.To stress the popularity of coin collecting in America.

Through ones eyes, we can read sorrow, happi

26、ness, encouragement, and many other emotions. Eyes are always one of the fastest and most direct organs to reveal your thoughts. Until now, I still remember an unforgettable experience, which happened when I took part in a singing contest at the age of nine. It was the power of my mothers eyes that

27、encouraged me to go for it. I had shown great interest in singing before that but I was too shy to sing in the public. So one day my mother took me to sign up for the singing contest. With my mothers company and encouragement, I was determined to meet that challenge. Standing on the stage, I suddenl

28、y found I had become the focus of all the eyes. I got so nervous that I couldnt even keep my eyes open. When it was my turn to be introduced to the audience and sing, I became even more nervous. I felt my legs were shaking and my memory seemed to have left me, as I couldnt remember anything. Searchi

29、ng for help, I met my mothers eyes which were sparkling with encouragement and strong power. It seemed that they were speaking to me, Come on! Baby! Take it easy. Ill always be with you! I read the message through her eyes and at that moment I got my confidence back and began to sing my song. When I

30、 came down from the stage, she came up to me, saying, Great! Im proud of you! and gave me a big hug. At that time, I found her eyes filled with tears of joy. Sometimes, you see, just the encouraging eyes themselves can make a shy person brave. l.What does the author mean to do by telling her unforge

31、ttable experience? A.To prove the authors view that eyes are another kind of language we use to express ourselves. B.To prove that the eyes are very important parts of our bodies.

40、my head. Now I am thirty-two. I can still remember the brightness of sunshine. It would be1to see again, but a2can do strange things to people. I dont mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes. I simply mean that the3of them made me appreciate more what I had. Life, I believe, asks a continuous

41、 series of adjustments to reality. The more quickly a person is able to make these adjustments, the more4his own private world becomes. The adjustment is never easy.
