　　Born in 1928， Eugenio Monti， was the best young Italian skier of his generation.He became known as the Flying Redhead and won several national titles， but in 1951 an accident called an end to his skiing career.It was then that he switched to bobsleigh.In 1954 he won his first Italian championship and started to dominate the sport in Italy and be a force internationally for more than a decade.However， Monti is more widely remembered as the first athlete to be awarded the Pierre de Coubertin Medal for sportsmanship displayed during the 1964 Winter Olympic Games.
　　At the 1964 Games in Innsbruck， Austria， Monti and his partner Sergio Siorpaes were the defending world champions， which made them favourites in the two-man event.Monti was desperate to add Olympic golds to his medal collection because he was 36 years old then and had already suffered serious problems with his knees， arguably running out of time to achieve his Olympic dreams.But they were in heated competition with the British team of Anthony Nash and Robin Dixon.
　　After two runs on the first day， the British led the field.On day two， however， a faulty axle （車軸） on the sled would have been sure to lead to their withdrawal， if it weren’t for Monti offering to lend them the bolt （螺栓） from his sled.The British pair went on to record the fastest time on that final run and won gold by just 0.12 seconds， while Monti and Siorpaes claimed the bronze.
　　Four days later in the four-man event， Monti’s selflessness towards his fellow competitors shone through for a second time when the rear axle on the Canadian team’s sled was damaged.Monti sent the Italian team’s mechanics to repair it， with the consequence that the Canadian team won gold， with Monti having to settle for another bronze.
　　Monti was recognised with the Pierre de Coubertin Medal for sportsmanship after the 1964 Winter Games.And four years later， at the age of 40， at the 1968 Games in Grenoble， Monti finally fulfilled his dream of being an Olympic champion.

　　Working out can help teenagers boost their grades， a new study suggests.Adolescents who routinely engaged in light to intense exercise showed long-term improvements in their academic performance， the British Journal of Sports Medicine study reported.
　　“Our study suggests that the effect of physical activity may be quite large，” John Reilly， a professor at the University of Strathclyde said.The researchers looked at a sample of about 5，000 children who were involved in a long-term study that tracks children born in the U.K.between 2004 and 2005.When children reached 11 years old， their daily physical activity levels were measured using an accelerometer （加速器） for three to seven days.The device， similar to a pedometer （計步器） tracking the number of steps taken， recorded the average time children exercised， which was 29 minutes a day for boys and 18 for girls.
　　“The actual levels of daily physical activity at age 11 were quite low，” Mr Reilly noted.The children had their academic performance tested at ages 11 and 13 with compulsory national tests for students， and also at 15 or 16 with the General Certificate of Secondary Education （GCSE） exam.The tests assessed the children’s abilities in English， math and science subjects.The results showed that the more children participated in light to intense physical activity， the higher their test scores were at age 11 in all three subjects.For girls， science scores were most strongly linked to exercise.
　　When children were tested again at age 13， their academic scores were still linked to how much they had exercised when they were 11 years old.By the time the youngsters took the GCSE exam， each 17-minute-per-day increase in physical activity for the boys was linked to an improvement in their scores.Every additional 12-minute increase a day in exercise for the girls was also linked to an increased score， especially in the science category.
　　The researchers have called for more studies to look at the possible academic benefits that could be derived if students exercised the recommended 60 minutes or more a day.
5.What’s the study about？
A.The secrets of students’ ranking high in class.
B.The influence of exercise on students’ scores.
C.The causes of students’ participating in sports.
D.The ways of improving students’ physical conditions.
6.What can we learn from the study？
A.Students at age 11 do more exercise than at other ages.
B.Boys at age 13 get more benefits by doing more exercise.
C.Girls’ science scores are more closely related to exercise.
D.More and more students do exercise to improve their scores.
7.What does the underlined word “derived” in the last paragraph probably mean？
A.Maintained. B.Reduced.
C.Concluded. D.Obtained.
8.What is the main purpose of the passage？
A.To emphasize the importance of exercise.
B.To explain the academic difference between boys and girls.
C.To present a method to improve children’s academic performance.
D.To introduce a study on the relevance between exercise and academic benefits.

　　A combination of physical poses and relaxation techniques， yoga can improve your balance， flexibility， posture （how you stand and move） and strength.As a non-competitive activity， it also encourages positive thinking， compassion （同情） and respect.What’s more， it’s been around for more than 5，000 years.Isn’t it high time that you gave it a try？
　　Some yoga studios run courses for young people， and lots of schools have set up yoga clubs.Clare Lewis at Az Yoga runs courses in primary schools.“Yoga can help to lay the foundation for lifelong health， happiness and healthy habits，” she says.“It gives you a few tools， such as movement， breathing and putting positive images in your mind， that you can use in moments of the challenge or stress.It also has lots of fun！”
　　Don’t worry if you can’t find a class nearby — one of the great things about yoga is that you can do it at home using online videos.Simply get into some comfortable clothes and find a quiet spot and you’re ready to go.
　　To me， Cosmic Kids on YouTube is a really fun introduction to yoga， but for something more grown-ups look for Adriene Mishler.She’s a well-known yoga teacher from the US whose YouTube channel has more than eight million subscribers （用戶）.
　　Some of her videos are designed for young people， including Rainbow Yoga， Yoga for Kids and Yoga for Teens.
　　Once you get more experienced， you can practise yoga whenever you like， without using a video.You’ll soon feel calmer， more positive and stronger — both mentally and physically.
9.What’s the main purpose of the first paragraph？
A.To share the features of yoga.
B.To encourage people to try yoga.
C.To tell people the history of yoga.
D.To introduce the advantages of yoga.
10.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 probably refer to？
A.Yoga.　　　　　　B.Happiness.
C.Movement. D.Health.
11.What can we know about Adriene Mishler？
A.She works at Az Yoga.
B.She runs courses in primary schools.
C.Her videos are designed only for adults.
D.Her YouTube channel is popular with people.
12.What’s the author’s attitude to Cosmic Kids？
A.Curious. B.Interested.
C.Negative. D.Unconcerned.

成功之路
　　在弗吉尼亞州的格羅托斯小鎮附近，一條狹窄的土路從斯蒂芬·庫里的祖父家延伸至附近的樹林。這與美國男子職業籃球聯賽（NBA）賽場上明亮的燈光和閃亮的球場相去甚遠。正是在這條路上，斯蒂芬的祖父把一塊塑料貼到電線桿上，建了一個簡易籃筐。
　　與父親戴爾·庫里這位籃球明星一樣，斯蒂芬的許多童年時光都是在這個土籃球場上度過的。盡管當時他可能并沒有意識到，但就是在這里，他學會了如何成為一名有創造力、能夠靈活變通的籃球運動員。你瞧，每次投籃，不牢固的塑料籃板都搖搖欲墜。籃筐下的小路凹凸不平，布滿了石塊，籃球也因此彈向四面八方。能夠判斷出球反彈的方向并不容易，因此他不得不調整自己的打球方式。他在這里學到的另一項技能是精準的投籃技術。只有完美地瞄準中心，籃球才能進入厚重的籃筐。如此日復一日地練習，斯蒂芬的籃球技術變得爐火純青。
　　盡管父親的職業生涯很成功，但是斯蒂芬的高中隊友和教練等很多人都認為他太矮太瘦弱，無法延續他父親的榮耀。但斯蒂芬繼續堅持打球。打籃球是他的夢想，他絕不會放棄。終于，斯蒂芬在規模不大且鮮為人知的戴維森學院成為一名大學籃球賽的球員，這所學院離他家不算遠。斯蒂芬憑借自己的創造性和毅力成為戴維森學院的明星球員。
　　2009年，斯蒂芬入選NBA，加入了金州勇士隊。憑借精準的投籃和不懈的努力，他的表現令人刮目相看。2015年，斯蒂芬贏得了他的第一個NBA總冠軍，這也是他帶領勇士隊獲得的自1975年以來的第一個冠軍。
　　在連續兩年獲得“最有價值球員”獎后，斯蒂芬闡釋了他的人生觀：“我從未真正想過改變比賽……我只想做我自己……我知道這激勵著很多后輩、很多熱愛籃球比賽的人，讓他們認識到技術的重要性，認識到你可以通過每天的不斷努力而變得更好。你必須肯花時間和精力。這是我走到今天的方法，也是我每一天都能更進一步的原因。”斯蒂芬·庫里激勵著所有人去相信自己，他也生動地證明了別人對你的看法并不一定會影響你成為什么人。通過自信、勤奮、毅力，以及一只舊籃筐的幫助，他向人們證明了一切皆有可能。

【參考譯文】
成功之路
　　在弗吉尼亞州的格羅托斯小鎮附近，一條狹窄的土路從斯蒂
芬·庫里的祖父家延伸至附近的樹林。這與美國男子職業籃球聯賽
（NBA）賽場上明亮的燈光和閃亮的球場相去甚遠。正是在這條路
上，斯蒂芬的祖父把一塊塑料貼到電線桿上，建了一個簡易籃筐。
　　與父親戴爾·庫里這位籃球明星一樣，斯蒂芬的許多童年時光都
是在這個土籃球場上度過的。盡管當時他可能并沒有意識到，但就是
在這里，他學會了如何成為一名有創造力、能夠靈活變通的籃球運動
員。你瞧，每次投籃，不牢固的塑料籃板都搖搖欲墜。籃筐下的小路
凹凸不平，布滿了石塊，籃球也因此彈向四面八方。能夠判斷出球反
彈的方向并不容易，因此他不得不調整自己的打球方式。他在這里學
到的另一項技能是精準的投籃技術。只有完美地瞄準中心，籃球才能
進入厚重的籃筐。如此日復一日地練習，斯蒂芬的籃球技術變得爐火
純青。
　　盡管父親的職業生涯很成功，但是斯蒂芬的高中隊友和教練等很
多人都認為他太矮太瘦弱，無法延續他父親的榮耀。但斯蒂芬繼續堅
持打球。打籃球是他的夢想，他絕不會放棄。終于，斯蒂芬在規模不
大且鮮為人知的戴維森學院成為一名大學籃球賽的球員，這所學院離
他家不算遠。斯蒂芬憑借自己的創造性和毅力成為戴維森學院的明星
球員。
　　2009年，斯蒂芬入選NBA，加入了金州勇士隊。憑借精準的投籃
和不懈的努力，他的表現令人刮目相看。2015年，斯蒂芬贏得了他的
第一個NBA總冠軍，這也是他帶領勇士隊獲得的自1975年以來的第一
個冠軍。
　　在連續兩年獲得“最有價值球員”獎后，斯蒂芬闡釋了他的人生
觀：“我從未真正想過改變比賽……我只想做我自己……我知道這激
勵著很多后輩、很多熱愛籃球比賽的人，讓他們認識到技術的重要
性，認識到你可以通過每天的不斷努力而變得更好。你必須肯花時間
和精力。這是我走到今天的方法，也是我每一天都能更進一步的原
因。”斯蒂芬·庫里激勵著所有人去相信自己，他也生動地證明了別人
對你的看法并不一定會影響你成為什么人。通過自信、勤奮、毅力，
以及一只舊籃筐的幫助，他向人們證明了一切皆有可能。

Ⅰ.閱讀理解
A
　　Born in 1928， Eugenio Monti， was the best young Italian skier
of his generation.He became known as the Flying Redhead and won
several national titles， but in 1951 an accident called an end to his
skiing career.It was then that he switched to bobsleigh.In 1954 he won
his first Italian championship and started to dominate the sport in
Italy and be a force internationally for more than a decade.However，
Monti is more widely remembered as the first athlete to be awarded
the Pierre de Coubertin Medal for sportsmanship displayed during the
1964 Winter Olympic Games.
　　At the 1964 Games in Innsbruck， Austria， Monti and his
partner Sergio Siorpaes were the defending world champions， which
made them 　favourites　 in the two-man event.Monti was desperate
to add Olympic golds to his medal collection because he was 36 years
old then and had already suffered serious problems with his knees，
arguably running out of time to achieve his Olympic dreams.But they
were in heated competition with the British team of Anthony Nash and
Robin Dixon.
　　After two runs on the first day， the British led the field.On day
two， however， a faulty axle （車軸） on the sled would have been
sure to lead to their withdrawal， if it weren’t for Monti offering to
lend them the bolt （螺栓） from his sled.The British pair went on to
record the fastest time on that final run and won gold by just 0.12
seconds， while Monti and Siorpaes claimed the bronze.
　　Four days later in the four-man event， Monti’s selflessness
towards his fellow competitors shone through for a second time when
the rear axle on the Canadian team’s sled was damaged.Monti sent the
Italian team’s mechanics to repair it， with the consequence that the
Canadian team won gold， with Monti having to settle for another
bronze.
　　Monti was recognised with the Pierre de Coubertin Medal for
sportsmanship after the 1964 Winter Games.And four years later， at
the age of 40， at the 1968 Games in Grenoble， Monti finally fulfilled
his dream of being an Olympic champion.

　　Working out can help teenagers boost their grades， a new study
suggests.Adolescents who routinely engaged in light to intense exercise
showed long-term improvements in their academic performance， the
British Journal of Sports Medicine study reported.
　　“Our study suggests that the effect of physical activity may be
quite large，” John Reilly， a professor at the University of
Strathclyde said.The researchers looked at a sample of about 5，000
children who were involved in a long-term study that tracks children
born in the U. K. between 2004 and 2005.When children reached 11
years old， their daily physical activity levels were measured using an
accelerometer （加速器） for three to seven days.The device， similar
to a pedometer （計步器） tracking the number of steps taken，
recorded the average time children exercised， which was 29 minutes
a day for boys and 18 for girls.
　　“The actual levels of daily physical activity at age 11 were quite
low，” Mr Reilly noted.The children had their academic performance
tested at ages 11 and 13 with compulsory national tests for students，
and also at 15 or 16 with the General Certificate of Secondary
Education （GCSE） exam.The tests assessed the children’s abilities
in English， math and science subjects.The results showed that the
more children participated in light to intense physical activity， the
higher their test scores were at age 11 in all three subjects.For girls，
science scores were most strongly linked to exercise.
　　When children were tested again at age 13， their academic
scores were still linked to how much they had exercised when they
were 11 years old.By the time the youngsters took the GCSE exam，
each 17-minute-per-day increase in physical activity for the boys was
linked to an improvement in their scores.Every additional 12-minute
increase a day in exercise for the girls was also linked to an increased
score， especially in the science category.
　　The researchers have called for more studies to look at the
possible academic benefits that could be 　derived　 if students
exercised the recommended 60 minutes or more a day.

5. What’s the study about？
A. The secrets of students’ ranking high in class.
B. The influence of exercise on students’ scores.

跟運動關系更加密切。

成績的提高。由此可以推斷出，畫線詞的意思是“得到；獲得”。

　　A combination of physical poses and relaxation techniques， yoga
can improve your balance， flexibility， posture （how you stand and
move） and strength.As a non-competitive activity， it also
encourages positive thinking， compassion （同情） and
respect.What’s more， it’s been around for more than 5，000
years.Isn’t it high time that you gave it a try？
　　Some yoga studios run courses for young people， and lots of
schools have set up yoga clubs.Clare Lewis at Az Yoga runs courses in
primary schools.“Yoga can help to lay the foundation for lifelong
health， happiness and healthy habits，” she says.“ 　It　 gives you a
few tools， such as movement， breathing and putting positive images
in your mind， that you can use in moments of the challenge or
stress.It also has lots of fun！”
　　Don’t worry if you can’t find a class nearby — one of the great
things about yoga is that you can do it at home using online
videos.Simply get into some comfortable clothes and find a quiet spot
and you’re ready to go.
　　To me， Cosmic Kids on YouTube is a really fun introduction to
yoga， but for something more grown-ups look for Adriene
Mishler.She’s a well-known yoga teacher from the US whose YouTube
channel has more than eight million subscribers （用戶）.
　　Some of her videos are designed for young people， including
Rainbow Yoga， Yoga for Kids and Yoga for Teens.
　　Once you get more experienced， you can practise yoga whenever
you like， without using a video.You’ll soon feel calmer， more
positive and stronger — both mentally and physically.

18. was invented　分析句子結構可知，本空作謂語，根據時間狀語
more than 4，000 years ago可知，時態應為一般過去時，又因主語
The game和invent之間是動賓關系，應用被動語態，且主語為單數形
式，故填was invented。
19. oldest　根據空前的the和語境可知，此處應用形容詞的最高級修
飾后面的名詞board game，故填oldest。
20. whom　分析句子結構可知，此處為非限制性定語從句，其中介詞
of放在關系詞之前，而先行詞為表示人的名詞players，故填whom。
21. the　根據常識可知，圍棋比賽需要兩個人對弈，the other表示兩
者中的另一個，故填the。
22. turns　take turns to do sth為固定用法，意為“輪流做某事”，故填
turns。
23. placed　分析句子結構可知，句子的謂語是be moved，此處應為
非謂語動詞，place與其邏輯主語stones之間構成動賓關系，故填
placed。
24. from　此處為remove sth from sth的被動語態，故填from。
es　根據語境和主句所用的一般現在時可知，此處應用一般現
在時，且主語為單數形式，故填comes。
26. counting　在介詞by后，應用名詞、代詞或動詞-ing形式作賓語，
故填counting。
27. simplify　分析句子結構可知，本空為該句的謂語，且空前有情態
動詞，又因空處與主語之間為主動關系，故填動詞原形simplify “簡
化”。
