works pared with traditional gym classes”可推知，大多数学生觉得这个体能训练是有效果的。故选C。3A词义猜测题。根据第四段中的“I think its a great way to teach kids lifelong fitness，especially those kids who arent interested in hockey, soccer or basketball”可知，Tracy认为CrossFit是教孩子终身健身的好方法，尤其是对曲棍球、足球和篮球不感兴趣的孩子。结合画线词后的“improved her performance on the basketball court”可知，此处的“workout”就是指上文提及的“体能训练”。故选A。4C推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可推知，孩子们如果训练得当就可以保护自己不受伤。故选C。长难句分析：But some doctors and researchers advise caution，saying the exercises that involve lifting weights can lead to injuries，particularly when performed by few inexperienced people.(倒数第三段)分析：本句是复合句。the exercises that involve lifting weights can lead to injuries为省略了连接词that的宾语从句，作saying的宾语；that引导定语从句，修饰先行词exercises，在从句中作主语；when引导时间状语从句。译文：但是一些医生和研究者建议小心一些，他们说涉及类似举重的一些练习可能会导致受伤，尤其是当几乎没有经验的人练习的时候。词汇积累：professional adj.职业的，专业的petition n比赛，竞赛traditional adj.传统的caution n小心，谨慎二、单句语法填空1The hotel offers its guests a wide variety of _(amuse)答案：amusements此处表述各种各样的 “娱乐活动”，故需填入所给词的名词形式，且作此义讲时，多用复数。2Mary often does some _(translate) work to earn extra money,
