(2019·遵义高一检测)
My family, my wife, Joan, our two teenagers Hannah and Joseph, and I, live in Atlanta with our two dogs.
Ten years ago, we moved into our dream house, a very big three-story home. It was a beautiful place, but as
our children grew up, our sense of togetherness (团结) began to disappear slowly. In the big house, we
sometimes seemed to be strangers to each other.
One day when Hannah was 14, she became upset about the difference between the world’s haves and the
have-nots. She expected us to be “a family that makes a difference in the world, even if it’s a small
difference. ” Joan asked her, “What are you willing to sacrifice? Your house? Your room? ” Hannah said
yes to both. After talking it over as a family, we decided to sell our house and move to one that was half its
size and price and donate (捐赠) the difference to those in need.
After a lot of research, we chose the Hunger Project, a US-based organization. It works with villagers in
Africa, Asia and South America and helps them fight against poverty (贫穷). Our money went to pay for
building two centers. Each has a meeting place, a bank and a health clinic (诊所). Together, the centers
would serve more than 20 villages in eastern Ghana. We also traveled to meet the villagers and were blown
away by their hard work and warmth.
To be honest, we were a little worried at first. Would we regard the new home as being too small for us? Or
would we think we had given up too much? Two years later, I can tell you: It’s the best move we have ever
made. While we worked together on our family project,we became much closer. As Hannah said the other
day, “We learned how to really trust each other. ”

A. were not as close as before

C. Give up. D. Build up.
3. Why did the author’s family sell their big house?
A. To go abroad.
B. To help the poor.

D. To save money for the future.
4. How did the author feel about his family’s move?

Running on the beach can certainly be a good thing. It’s completely different from running on the
pavement, a track or trails with soft surfaces.
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂For starters, sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven(不平的)surface and constantly moves
under your feet. As you push off, you’re going to lose some of your push as the sand moves. So, you’re not
going to be able to push yourself forward as you would on a track or pavement! But this unevenness has an
upside: It gives your body an extra workout, forcing you to exercise muscles that don’t get as much use
during runs on firm surfaces.
You also might feel painful afterward because beaches tend to slope(倾斜)downward, toward the
water. If you’re going for a long run on the beach, you might notice that one side of your body—including
your ankle, leg or knee—might feel more painful because you’re putting more pressure on it due to the
slope.
Some beach runners tend to run barefoot. However, if you’re not used to barefoot running, start slowly
and run short distances at first. That’s because running barefoot uses different muscles than running with
shoes does, and it’s important to strengthen these muscles and adapt your feet.
Despite these challenges, running on sand can be a smart choice for athletes because running on it can
decrease the bad influence on your body during high-intensity workouts. This could potentially lead to less
muscle damage and less pain. Women had less myoglobin(肌红蛋白)—a protein that can be a sign of
muscle pain—in their blood after running on the sand than they did after running on grass. This suggests
running on softer ground surfaces, such as sand, may reduce muscle damage.
5. What makes running on sand difficult for starters?
A. The smooth surface. B. The moving surface.
C. The sloping surface. D. The hard surface.
6. Which of the following best explains “upside” underlined in Paragraph 2?
A. Advantage. B. Reason.
C. Surprise. D. Challenge.
7. What should you avoid when trying running barefoot?
A. Starting slowly.
B. Adapting your feet.
C. Developing some muscles.
D. Running long distances.
8. What is the benefit of running on sand to women?
A. Having no muscle damage.
B. Becoming much healthier.
C. Feeling less painful.

答案：BADC
【文章大意】在海滩上跑步肯定是一件好事。这和在人行道上跑步完全不同, 路面是柔软的。文章
主要说明了一些在沙滩上跑步需要注意的事项。
5. 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句 For starters, sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven
surface and constantly moves under your feet. (对于初学者来说, 沙子可能是个挑战, 因为它的表面不
平整, 而且在你脚下不停地移动。)可知运动的表面使得初学者刚开始在沙地上跑步很困难。据此可
知选B。
6. 词义猜测题。根据下文 It gives your body an extra workout, forcing you to exercise muscles that
don’t get as much use during runs on firm surfaces. (它给你的身体提供了额外的锻炼, 迫使你锻炼肌肉,
而这些肌肉在坚实的地面上跑步时不会得到太多的锻炼。)可知是在描述这种不平整的一个好处。
故可推测划线单词意思为“好处”。据此可知选A。
7. 细节理解题。根据第四段第二句However, if you’re not used to barefoot running, start slowly and
run short distances at first. (然而, 如果你不习惯赤脚跑步, 开始时要慢慢来, 跑短距离。)可知要避免
赤脚跑长距离。据此可知选D。
8. 细节理解题。根据最后一段中Women had less myoglobin—a protein that can be a sign of muscle
pain-in their blood after running on the sand than they did after running on grass. This suggests running on
softer ground surfaces, such as sand, may reduce muscle damage. (女性在沙滩上跑步后血液中的肌红蛋
白含量比在草地上跑步时要低。这表明在较软的地面上跑步, 比如沙地, 可以减少肌肉损伤。)可知
对女性来说, 在沙滩上跑步的好处是不会那么痛苦。据此可知选C。

The popular film, Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom, which is based on Mandela’s autobiography,
has been shown in South Africa and the United States since November 28, 2013. Born in Transkei, South
Africa on July 18, 1918, Mandela was sentenced to five years’ labour for encouraging violence against anti-
black laws in 1962. Two years later, he was sentenced to prison for life for being one of the ANC leaders,
but after being released from prison in 1990, he continued to make efforts to achieve the dream of making
black and white people equal. Owing to his great work, not only did he win the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993,
but also he was elected (as) President of South Africa a year later.
This excellent film has been made in honor of Mandela, which is really worth seeing because you can
benefit a lot from it.
