并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．ASports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your choice of sport might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemical and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses in good condition .This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There are many environment-friendly sports．Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Membersof green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.1.What do we know about golf from the passage?A．It is not played in Portugal and Spain at all.B．It causes water shortages around the world.C．It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes.D．It needs water and energy to keep its courses in good condition.2.

He could run around in the hills. What she hadn’t quite accounted for, though, is how thehills are becoming hotter, drier and more dangerous.A year after they moved came the first of an annual series of wildfires, and an asthma diagnosis (哮喘诊断) for Benjamin. One year, they had to leave from their home for a few days. Another year, they bought air-conditioners so they could keep the windows shut when the air got thick and smoky.

The boy had what appeared to be a mild asthma attack.Ms. Blake struggles to explain to him why he can't be outside exploring. She worries when he goes to school. She wonders how much longer the family will be able to insure their home if rates climb higher —and what they’ll do if insurance becomes unavailable at any pr ice. “It seems every year there’s some major fire,” Ms. Blake said. “We're smoked out. It's hard to breathe. It's always a worry that you' re going to have to flee or you1 re going to lose your home.” She said she had spent in the neighborhood of $1,000 th is year to equip her home. “To protect my son of course I’m going to do that,” she said. “But it' s fundamentally unfair.”8.

江西省吉安县立中学2020-2021学年高二第一学期期中考试英语试卷学校_________ 班级__________ 姓名__________ 学号__________一、阅读选择1. Earlier this year, we asked our readers to vote fortheir favorite children's museums. Shortly after announcing the winners, these museums had to close their doors to help protect their communities from the spread of COVID-19. But they also bring some of their programming online.The Magic House | St. Louis, MissouriThe folks at The Magic House in St. Louis are sharing their expertise through their Magic at Home series. Each edition features a project that kids and their parents can do with household materials, like making a banjo or animal figures.City Museum | St. Louis, MissouriWhile the City Museum is closed to visitors, the museum staff, artists and historians have launched City Museum on Air. This series takes place each weekday with an eclectic lineup of programming - everything from free art classes, storytelling sessions and museum tours at upcoming exhibits.Kohl Children's Museum | Glenview, IllinoisThis winning children's museum calls itself "The place where awesome lives," and would-be visitors can bring that awesome into the home through its library of online teaching resources, story time sessions and "Home Zone" projects. Kids can learn how to fold paper airplanes, learn about the physics of wheels or make their own recycled paper.【小题1】What results in the closing of children's museums?A．The spreading of a disease. B．The decrease of would-be visitors.C．The readers' votes on museums. D．The development of digitalprogramming.【小题2】When is online programming of City Museum accessible?A ．At weekends.B ．At any time.C ．On weekdays.D ．On holidays.【小题3】What do The Magic House and Kohl Children's Museum have in common?A ．Stressing hands-on experience.B ．Demonstrating how 4 wheel works.C ．Offering story-telling courses.D ．Teaching how to copy animal figures.2. I remember doing the household chores to help my mother when I was nine. I hated changing the vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) bag and picking up things the machine did not suck up. Twenty years later, in 1978, with this lifelong dislike of the way the machine worked, I decided to make a bagless one.Easier said than done, of course. I didn’t realize that I would spend the next five years perfecting my design, a process thatresulted in 5,127 different prototypes (样机). By the time I made my 15th prototype, my third child was born. By 2,627, my wife and I were really counting our pennies. By 3,727, my wife was giving art lessons for some extra cash, and we were getting further and further into debt. These were tough times, but each failure brought me closer to solving the problem.In the early 1980s, I started trying to get licensing agreements for my technology. The reality was very different, however. The major vacuum makers had built a business model based on the profits from bags and filters (滤网). No one would license my idea, not because it was a bad one, but because it was bad for business. But soon after, the companies that I had talked with started making machines like mine. I had to fight legal battles on both sides of the Atlantic to protect the patents on my vacuum cleaner.I was still in financial difficulties until 1993, when my bank manager personally persuaded Lloyds Bank to lend me $1 million. Then I was able to go into production. Within two years, the Dyson vacuum cleaner became a best-seller in Britain.Today, I still embrace risk and the potential for failure as part of the process. Nothing beats the excitement of invention,【小题1】What drove the author to make a bagless vacuum cleaner?A．His willingness to help mom.B．His curiosity about machines.C．His trouble in doing family chores.D．His discontent with existing cleaners.【小题2】What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A．The help from the author’s wife.B．The financial problems of the family.C．The tough process of the new invention.D．The procedures of making a bagless cleaner.【小题3】Why did the companies refuse to license the author’s technology?A．They thought they might suffer loss.B．They considered it not good enough.C．They faced legal problems themselves.D．They had begun making such machines.【小题4】What lesson may the author learn from the experience? A．Think twice before acting.B．Failure is the mother of success.C．Actions speak louder than words.D．A good beginning makes a good ending.3. For many years doctors have warned us about the dangers of stress (压力) and have given us advice about how to cut down our stress levels. Everyone agrees that long-term stress, for example having to look after someone who has a chronic (慢性的) illness, or stressful situations where there is nothing we can do, for example being stuck in a traffic jam, should be avoided whenever possible. However, some medical experts now believe that certain kinds of stress may actually be good for us.Dr Marios Kyriazis, an anti-ageing expert, points out that what he calls "good stress” is beneficial to our health and may, in fact, help us stay young and attractive and even live longer. Dr Kyriazis says that “good stress” can strengthen our natural defences which protect us from illnesses common among older people, such as Alzheimer's and heart problems.According to Dr Kyriazis, running for a bus or having to work to meet a d eadline are examples of “good stress”, that is situations with short-term or low stress. The stress usually makes us react quickly, and gives us a sense of achievement — we did it! However,in both situations, the stress damages the cells(细胞) in our body or brain and they start to break down. But then the cells own repair mechanism “switches on”and it produces proteins which repair thedamaged cells and remove harmful chemicals that can gradually cause disease. In fact, the body's response is greater than is needed to repair the damage, so it actually makes the cells stronger than they were before.“As the body gets older, this self-repair mechanism of the cells starts to slow down,” says Dr Kyriazis.“The best way to keep the process working efficiently is t o ‘exercise’ it, in the same way you would exercise your muscles to keep them strong. This means having a certain amount of stress in our lives.”Other stressful activities that Kyriazis suggests as being good stress include redecorating a room in your house over the weekend, packing your suitcase in a hurry to reach the airport on time, or shopping for a dinner party during your lunch break.So next time your boss tells you that she wants to see the report finished and on her desk in 45 minutes, don't worry; just think of it as “good stress” which will benefit your long-term health!【小题1】What is Dr Kyriazis' opinion probably based on?A．How to get a sense of achievement.B．How to cut down our stress levels.C．The benefits of doing physical exercise.D．The relationship between stress and health.【小题2】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．The daily stress. B．Long-term stress.C．The increasing stress. D．Short-term or low stress.【小题3】According to Dr Kyriazis, which of the following may be “good stress”?A．Being stuck in a traffic jam.B．Packing for a trip at the last minute.C．Being late for work for several days.D．Looking after a patient with heart trouble.【小题4】What would be the best title for the text?A．Stress beats success B．Stress attracts illnessC．Get stressed, stay young D．Less stress, better health4.Recent studies have shown that challenging your brain, byspurring (刺激) the brain to create new patterns, is very important to keep your brain active and healthy as you age. Lifelong learning is a health club for our minds, bodies and spirits. This is why we parents should also teach our children to be lifelong learners. Dr. Marilyn Price-Mitchell, an American psychologist, and youth development expert, shares some ways for us to do this.1. Ask questions.When your child asks you a question, don't answer it straight away. Instead, help him or her bring up “questions that pique their curiosity.” This way, we help children make connections between what they're learning at school and the world beyond their classroom. We also show them that learning does not, and should not, end when one is “done with school” — it's actually a lifelong process!2.
