必修 1 英语 Unit 1 课时跟踪练和高考满分作文：大树的求学之旅（46）课时跟踪练(一) Warm up we spend far too much sitting down. If in addition we are careless about our diets, our bodies soon become loose and fatty and our systems slow moving.There are some aspects (方面) of our unhealthy lives that we cannot avoid. I am thinking of such features of modern city life as pollution, noise, rushed meals and stress. But keeping fit is a way to reduce the effects of these evils. The usual suggestion to a person who is looking for a way to keep fit is to take up some sport or other. While it is true that every weekend you will find people playing football and hockey in the local park, they are outnumbered a hundred to one by the people who are simply watching them.For those who do not particularly enjoy competitive sports and it is especially difficult to do so if you are not good at them there are such separate activities as cycling, walking, jogging and swimming. What often happens though is that you do them in such a leisurely way, so slowly, that it is doubtful if you are doing yourself much good, except for the fact that you have at least managed to get up out of your armchair.Even after you have found a way for keeping in shape，through sport or gymnastics, you are still only half way to good health, because, according to the experts, you must also master the art of complete mental and physical relaxation (放松)It has to do with deep breathing, emptying your mind of all thoughts, meditation, and so on. Yoga, as practiced in the West, is the most widely known and popular of the systems for achieving the necessary state of relaxation. It seems ironical(讽刺性的), though, that as our lives have improved in a material sense we have found it increasingly necessary to go back to forms of activity physical effort on the one hand and relaxation on the other which were the natural way of life of our forefathers.语篇解读：健康的生活不仅包括适当的生理锻炼，还包括心理保健。1Pollution, noise and stress are examples of_.Acauses of unfitnessBbad features of living in towns Cthe things we can completely do away withDunavoidable things in a town解析：选 B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“There are some aspects (方面) of our unhealthy lives that we cannot avoid.

Since then, it has become a familiar term for a person who spends a lot of time sitting, and little time exercising. Although there does not seem to be any particular reason why the term “couch potato” is used rather than “couch tomato”， a person may become a “couch potato” because living this way is said to make you round like a potato. The term is also said to have something to do with the connection of potatoes with highcalorie (卡路里) food like potato chips.People now would say “couch potato” whenever they talk about overweight and obesity (肥胖). Indeed, “couch potatoes” are believed to risk heart disease, which can be avoided by regular exercise.It is true that technology and modern life in general make us sick, fat, lazy and physically/mentally soft. The more time people spend using technology, particularly televisions and computers, the less time they will spend being physically active.“Couch potato” kids are a particular concern. Media reports repeatedly claim that children today are fatter than their elder generations, but less athletically skilled, less interested in physical activity and more addicted (上瘾的) to “junk food” and technology such as televisions and computers. The message is clear：todays children are fat because they are lazy and eat too much.Moreover, because technology is becoming more sophisticated (复杂的), children are less able to resist (抵抗，忍得住) technologys attraction, and are more likely to spend more time using technology, less time doing physical activity and, therefore, more likely to be fat.语篇解读：本文主要介绍了“couch potato”的由来、危害及预防。5The first paragraph is mainly talking about_.Awhy “couch potato” is used as a term for a personBwhen “couch potato” is used as a term for a person Chow “couch potato” is different from “couch tomato”Dwhat kind of person looks like a potato 解析：选 A 主题大意题 。第一段主要是谈论 couch potato 的由来，即它用来指某一类人的原因。6The development of technology also makes us sick because_by using technology.Awe are more likely to risk heart disease in modern life Bwe spend less time doing exercise Cwe neednt do many things by ourselves any more Dwe spend all our time watching TV and playing computer games 解析：选 B 细节理解题。从第三段最后一句可知，我们运用高科技的时间越多，锻炼的时间就变得越少。7Its kids _that people are particularly concerned about.Afood BstudyChealth Dhobby解析：选 C 细节理解题。最后一段的第一句“Couch potato kids are a particular concern”及下文可知，“Couch potato” kids 指的是那些肥胖的孩子，而“肥胖”是关系健康的问题。8According to the passage, the author may suggest that _.Ascientists should stop their research into technologyBparents should take better care of their childrenCkids should be stopped from using new technologyDpeople should spend less time using technology解析：选 D 推理判断题。从短文中我们可以得知，科技的发展使人们把更多的时间用在了看电视、玩电脑上而大大减少了锻炼的时间，造成了 couch potato 之类的问题，所以作者可能是在建议人们在看电视、玩电脑上少花点时间。CThe clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the strong light, I looked sad before a huge pile of that troublesome stuff they call “books”I was going to have my examination the next day. “When can I go to bed ？” I asked myself. I didnt answer. In fact I dared not.The clock struck twelve. “Oh, dear！” I cried. “Ten more books to read before I can go to bed ！” We pupils are the most wretched (不幸的) creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this.He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy.The clock struck one. I was quite hopeless now. I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.” My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them. A few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.语篇解读：你有过这样的经历吗？平时只顾着玩了，忽然间就要考试了，在考试前一晚挑灯夜战希望能通过考试。这种痛苦只有自己才能感受到。9When the author was going over his lessons, all the others in the house were _.Aasleep Bworking in bed Coutside Dquietly laughing at him解析：选 A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Everyone was in bed except me.(所有人除了我之外都在床上。)”可知，当作者在复习功课时，屋子里的其他人在睡觉。故选 A。10Reviewing his lessons that night didnt help him because_.Ait was too late at night Bhe was very tiredChis eyelids were so heavy that he couldnt keep them openDhe hadnt studied hard before the examination解析：选 D 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“I do promise to work hard afterwards”可知，临考试之前再复习功课显然来不及了，因为他以前没用功，所以他祈祷让他通过考试，答应以后会努力学习。故选 D。11The best title for the passage would be _.AThe Night before the ExaminationBWorking Far into the NightCA Slow StudentDGoing over My Lessons解析：选 A 标题归纳题。根据描述可知，时间发生在考试前，作者想通过挑灯夜战达到通过考试的目的。故选 A 项(考试前一晚)最形象、贴切。、阅读七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Kids health：Four steps for fighting stressEverybody gets stressed from time to time._1_Some ways of dealing with stress like screaming or hitting someone dont solve (解决) much.
