(2024·洛陽高三模擬)If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock. According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.
Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers and non-joggers for 12 years. The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die. The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour. The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non-joggers. The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries (動脈). Over time, this can cause serious injuries.
Peter Schnohr, a researcher in Copenhagen, said, “If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy, jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy. Anything more is just unnecessary, and it may be harmful.”
The implications of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as tai chi, yoga and brisk walking may be better for us than “iron man” events, triathlons and long-distance running and cycling. According to Jacob Louis Marott, another researcher involved in the study，“You don't actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health.And perhaps you shouldn't actually do too much.”
語篇解讀：本文是一篇科普說明文。最新的一項科學研究顯示：從事劇烈運動的人與根本不鍛煉的人死亡幾率是一樣的，而適度的鍛煉會有益于健康。
1．The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”．
A．hard

解析：選A 詞義猜測題。此處指像馬拉松一樣的鍛煉，所以strenuous應與hard意思相近，表示“艱苦的，費力的”。regular“定時的”；practical“實用的”；flexible“靈活的”。
2．The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to ________.
A．suggest giving up jogging
B．show risks of doing sports

B．It can make the body tired out.
C．It will bring much pressure.
D．It consumes too much energy.
解析：選A 細節理解題。根據第二段的最后兩句“The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries (動脈). Over time, this can cause serious injuries.”可知，劇烈運動會導致心臟和動脈結構發生變化，從而有損健康。
4．What can be inferred from the text?
A．Jogging is the best exercise.
B．More exercise means a healthier life.
C．Marathons runners are least likely to die.

(2024·鄭州市高中畢業年級質量預測)Although most games have winners and losers, the goal of sports is not to win every game. The real goals include getting exercise, having fun, and learning important social skills, like good sportsmanship.
Good sportsmanship is all about respect. Good sports (具有運動家品格的人) respect the other players on their team. They respect the players on opposing teams. They respect their coaches, and they also respect the referees or other officials involved in their games.__1__ They yell at their teammates and they talk back to coaches or referees.
Kids usually learn sportsmanship — good and bad — from the adults in their lives.__2__ If parents and coaches show disrespect to other fans, referees, or each other, kids will likely act the same way on the field.
__3__ Some of them are very basic and easy to do, like shaking hands with other players before a game. Other examples may take a little more courage, such as acknowledging a great play made by the opposing team.
Learning good sportsmanship is important because it helps you develop an attitude of graciousness (禮貌) and respect that will carry over into all the other areas of your life.__4__ Being a good sport in the classroom will eventually lead to being a good sport in the workplace.
So be a good sport in whatever you do！__5__ When others see you acting in a way that makes it clear that win-ning isn't the most important thing, you can move on to focusing on the important things, like having fun, getting exercise, and improving your skills!
A．Good sportsmanship can be shown in many ways.
B．On the contrary, bad sportsmanship is all about disrespect.
C．The example you set can be a powerful teaching tool for others.
D．Players' parents and coaches set examples that kids tend to follow.
E．We can be good sports by encouraging others but not laughing at them.
F．Starting as a good sport earlier will help you be a good sport as you get old.
G．If you're a good sport on the field, you'll also likely be a good sport in the classroom.
