month working with fitness and sports psychology experts at Bath University and the National Trust.The concept was that participantsincluding mewould spend alternate weeks exercising in a gym and on National Trust land.The first week was spent on the exercise bikes,rowing machines and treadmills(跑步机) in a gym at Bath.Getting started at the gym was easy.There was a nice munity too.People are gently teasing and encouraging each other.On the downside,it was hard to ignore the background noise of dance and pop music.And all the machines faced screens showing music videos,rolling news and sports channels.Not a place to get away from it all.So it was a relief in week two to head for the hills of Dyrham,a National Trust parkland full of birds and deer.Weeks three and four followed the same pattern.The diaries I had kept,questionnaires I had filled in,and heart monitors I had worn,were then analysed by scientists from Bath University.The findings surprise me a bit.The heart monitors showed I had consumed a similar amount of energy whether exercising in the gym or outdoors.But fitness expert Martyn Standage was most interested in the fact that on the days when my exercise had been done outside,I used more energy through the rest of the day.Standage said this fitted with studies that suggest working out in the outdoors leads to a greater feeling of vitality(活力).Jo Barton,who specialises in studying outdoor exercise,suggested that working out in the fresh air could be “life-changing”.“Exercising in nature lifts your mood and increases your self-respect,”she said.My verdict?It was more fun outside but sometimes more convenient to get to the gym.A bit of both may be the way forward.1.Which shows the authors exercise pattern in the four weeks?A.in the outdoorsin the outdoorsin the gymin the gymB.in the gymin the gymin the outdoorsin the outdoorsC.in the outdoorsin the gymin the outdoorsin the gymD.in the gymin the outdoorsin the gymin the outdoors2.What can we infer about the author?A.He used more energy when exercising indoors.B.He felt more energetic after exercising outdoors.C.He was very tired after finishing daily exercise.D.He summarised the findings after the experiment.3.What was Bartons attitude to outdoor exercise?A.Supportive.B.Doubtful.C.Tolerant.D.Uncaring.4.The underlined word “verdict” in the last paragraph can be understood as .A.concernB.opinionC.chanceD.challengeBIn the early morning,I head for the back door and find 10 inches of snow blanketing our home.Oh no,Bryan will have to clear the roof again,I think.But Rio rolls onto his back,playing in the white stuff and kicking his back legs,delighted.His days in an animal shelter in New Mexico are long forgottenhes wholeheartedly enjoyed life as a Colorado dog.Rio needs a walk.Ive planned to attend an emergent webinar,but my husband is busy clearing.Rio pushes my leg with his snout(口鼻部),wondering why we are still inside.Were overdue for our morning hike.I pull on my boots reluctantly.I dont have time for this!Rio and I walk a block through our neighborhood to the beginning of a road.Rio leaps happily into the powder,which is up to his neck.But I walk slowly with heavy steps,worrying about my to-do list,and I dont notice the world around me until Rio starts barking.A squirrel chitters(叫) at him from a high branch of a pine tree.We havent seen a squirrel in at least a week because of all the storms,so this is a treat for us.Once again,my animal teacher is reminding me to enjoy the present moment,and Im grateful.I take a deep breath and look around.Suddenly there is an explosion of snow.A nearby tree has released its heavy burden,snapping(迅速恢复) back upright.Silver snowflakes(雪花) dust the air around me as a group of birds flee the area,talking to one another as they fly overhead.I watch and listen in wonder for what seems like a full minute.There will be 1,440 minutes in this day,but this is the one Ill remember most.Then I look back to the earth and there is my sweet boy,waiting patiently for a treat.He knows Ill want to celebrate this moment weve just shared.“I love you,Rio!”I say as I give him a cookie.He has trained me well.When we walk home,I smile broadly,spirit washed clean,ready for whatever the day may bring.5.The underlined word “reluctantly” in Paragraph 2 can best be replaced by “”.A.quicklyB.excitedlyC.unwillinglyD.unnecessarily6.How is the author at the beginning of the walk?A.She is relaxed.B.She feels stressed.C.She is worrying about Rio.D.She is still angry with Bryan.7.What does the author learn from Rio?A.No pains,no gains.B.Live in the moment.C.Nothing is impossible.D.Troubles never e singly.8.Which can be the best title for the text?A.How I train my dogB.A busy day with RioC.Dogs in animal sheltersD.Lifted by a walk in fallen snowCTour operators have seasonal deals on holidays to Canada，Australia and other countries in a new

plays an important role as your child starts to gain independence.However,setting goals doesnt e naturally to your child,so helping him to learn the process should probably be one of your goals.Explain the word “goal”.Your child may know what a goal is when it es to soccer,but he may not understand what it means in everyday life.1Listen to your child.Ideally,you want your child to be able to decide for himself what his goals are.2Let him talk about what he thinks he does well and what he thinks he needs to improve.If hes stuck,you can provide some examples of your own personal goals.Help keep goals achievable.Dont throw cold water on your child.3For example,if your child wants to be a champion swimmer,but cant swim an entire lap of the pool yet,you can suggest he start by making that his first goal.4 Help your child write down his goals in an easy-to-follow form.Being able to see and check off the steps on the way to his goal is key in keeping him motivated.A really simple way is to have your child draw a ladder on a piece of paper,writing his goal at the top and each step to that goal on the rungs(梯级).5A.Change goals every so often.B.Make a visual goal reminder.C.Dont always tell him what you think.D.Hes climbing to the top as he gets closer to his goal.E.You can take sports as an example to help explain it to him.F.Once he has set up a goal,he may find it very difficult to achieve it.G.When a goal is beyond his reach,help him break it down into smaller pieces.书面表达(2017山东潍坊1月期末检测)假如你是李华,你和交流生Stephen所在的合唱队(choir)进入了决赛。请给他写一封电子邮件,告知这一信息,通知他训练的时间和地点,并让他推荐一首合唱的英文歌曲。注意:1.词数:100左右;2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。Dear Stephen,Yours,Li Hua#考点规范练(选修6Unit

parkland.”及第五段中的“Weeks three and four followed the same pattern.”可知,D项正确描述了作者在这四周里的锻炼模式。2.B细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“.on the days when my exercise had been done outside,I used more energy through the rest of the day.working out in the outdoors leads to a greater feeling of vitality.”可知,作者在户外锻炼之后会感觉精力更充沛。3.A推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“.working out in the fresh air could be life-changing.Exercising in nature lifts your mood and increases your self-respect,.”可知,巴顿支持户外锻炼。4.B词义猜测题。作者在最后一段表达了自己的“意见”,他认为室内锻炼和户外锻炼各有优势,能够结合起来最好。【解题导语】本文是记叙文。雪地中的散步令作者感到心情舒畅。5.C词义猜测题。由上文的“Ive planned to attend an emergent webinar.”及下文的“I dont have time for this!”可知,作者“不情愿地(reluctantly)”穿上靴子准备遛狗。故C项正确。6.B推理判断题。由第三段中的“I walk slowly with heavy steps,worrying about my to-do list,and I dont notice the world around me.”可推断,刚开始散步时,作者感到紧张不安。7.B细节理解题。由第五段开头的“Once again,my animal teacher is reminding me to enjoy the present moment.”可知,里约“教育”作者要活在当下。8.D标题归纳题。由最后一段“When we walk home,I smile broadly,spirit washed clean,ready for whatever the day may bring.”可知,忙碌又焦虑的作者通过在雪地中散步心情舒畅了。故D项恰当。.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了如何帮助孩子设定自己的目标,从而使他们学会独立。1.E根据空前的“Your child may know what a goal is when it es to soccer.”可知,通过拿足球运动做例子让孩子明白目标的概念,所以选E项。2.C根据本段主题句“Listen to your child.”和空前的“Ideally,you want your child to be able to decide for himself what his goals are.”可知,你不要总是告诉孩子你的想法,要让孩子自己去决定他的目标,所以选C项。3.G根据本段主题句“Help keep goals achievable.”和空后所举的例子可推知,父母在孩子的目标太大不能实现的情况下,可以帮助其分解目标从而逐步实现目标,所以选G项。4.B根据空后的“Help your child write down his goals in an easy-to-follow form.”可知,确定目标之后,要让孩子把目标写下来,便于提醒和及时查看,所以选B项。5.D根据空前的“A really simple way is to have your child draw a ladder on a piece of paper,writing his goal at the top and each step to that goal on the rungs.”可知,爬向顶端就意味着离目标更近了,所以选D项。.Dear Stephen,Im very excited to tell you that our choir has succeeded in entering the final petition.However,we still have a long way to go.So our training is
