Passage 2
Walking
If you want to get healthy or stay healthy, there is one easy activity for you — walking. You may think that
simply taking a walk is not enough to make a big difference. You may think that you need to do something like
running to stay healthy. Well, a new study says that is not true. It finds out that walking may be as good for us as
running.
Running is a high-impact (高强度的) activity and can be hard on the body. So, many people cannot run.
Walking seems to have all of the advantages and none of the disadvantages of running.
Dr Russell Pate is a professor of exercise science at the Arnold School of Public Health at the University of
South Carolina. He says, “Walking is one of the easiest and safest exercises a person can do. You do not need to
learn a lot to get results.”
Walking needs no special skills or equipment. You can do it anywhere. It fits easily into your daily schedule
(日程表). You can walk at work. You can walk if you want to go shopping. You can take the stairs instead of the
lift.
Walking is a great exercise for beginners. If you are out of shape or getting back into shape after an illness or
accident, walking is perfect. You can do a little at a time, or as we like to say, take baby steps.
62. The new study shows that ________.
A. running is better than walking B. walking is the best way of exercising
C. walking and running are not good enough D. walking is as good as running
63. Dr Russell Pate says walking is one of the easiest and safest exercises because ________.
A. walking is a high-impact activity and can be easy on the body
B. walking needs no skills
,
C. walking needs no special skills or equipment and we can do it anywhere
D. walking has more advantages than running
64. What does the underlined word “equipment” in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?
A. 器材 B. 食宿 C. 机会 D. 阶段
65. Which one is TRUE according to this passage?
A. Walking is not good for a beginner.
B. Walking seems to have all of the advantages of running.C. You’d better drive when you want to go shopping.
D. Walking does harm to all people after an illness or accident.
66. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To tell people that they shouldn’t walk more. B. To tell people that walking is a waste of time.
C. To tell people that they should walk more. D. To tell people that they don’t need to run any more.
(B)根据短文内容按要求完成任务。(共20分,每小题2分)
Passage 3
Becoming a Minimalist (极简主义者)
I have too many things. My bedroom is often in a mess. I have shelves with dirty books I never read and CDs I
don’t listen to. My drawers are filled with clothes I never wear. I was getting upset (心烦意乱的) that I never had
any space in my bedroom. Then I read about minimalist. Minimalist suggests that you only keep the most necessary
and important things and get rid of (处理掉) everything else. After reading about minimalism, I felt encouraged to
solve my problem.
I started clearing out a lot of the things which I didn’t use. I collected bags of clothes to give to charity (慈善
机构). I sold some of the CDs and books online. Although I knew that I would never need these things again, I still
found it very difficult to get rid of them. My brain tried to stop me from letting them go. I said to myself “I might
need that in the future!” or “Won’t I be sad if I lose that?” But the thing was, I knew I couldn’t keep everything.
After getting lots of things out of my room, I actually became quite excited to see the tidy room with some
fresh space. And a tidy room also makes me have a clear mind! The main idea behind minimalism is to cut down
what you own and really value the things you have. It’s not easy to be a minimalist. We are often told that it is
better to have more things. Advertisements try to make us believe that we will only be happy by spending more
money buying more things. Of course, I’m not a perfect minimalist — I’ve only just started. I still own a lot of
things which I don’t really need, but I think this was a good start. In the future, I will be more mindful of what I
buy. And I will continue to make an effort to get rid of what I don’t need.

Passage 4

childhood? Let’s have a look!
★ Playing diabolo
Diabolo passed down to ordinary people during the Ming Dynasty. It was always
made of bamboo and wood, and was hollow (空心的) in the center. By throwing and
catching diabolo on ropes, the high-speed rotating (旋转) diabolo would make a sound.
★ Playing stone balls
During the Qing Dynasty, kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in the
northern part of China, and it was often played in winter to keep warm. Stones were
carved (刻) into small balls and kicked.
★ Kicking shuttlecocks
Shuttlecock kicking appeared in the Han Dynasty. People used chicken feathers (羽
毛), coins and cotton cloth to make a shuttlecock. It was kicked in groups of three or
four during walking or running.
★ Watching shadow plays
Watching shadow plays was very popular during the Tang and Song dynasties.
Shadow puppets (木偶) were made from the leather of donkeys (驴皮). There was light
behind a large white screen on the table, the player controlled puppets and told stories.
The movement could be seen from the other side of the screen.

Passage 2
Walking
If you want to get healthy or stay healthy, there is one easy activity for you — walking. You may think that
simply taking a walk is not enough to make a big difference. You may think that you need to do something like
running to stay healthy. Well, a new study says that is not true. It finds out that walking may be as good for us as
running.
Running is a high-impact (高强度的) activity and can be hard on the body. So, many people cannot run.
Walking seems to have all of the advantages and none of the disadvantages of running.
Dr Russell Pate is a professor of exercise science at the Arnold School of Public Health at the University of
South Carolina. He says, “Walking is one of the easiest and safest exercises a person can do. You do not need to
learn a lot to get results.”
Walking needs no special skills or equipment. You can do it anywhere. It fits easily into your daily schedule
(日程表). You can walk at work. You can walk if you want to go shopping. You can take the stairs instead of the
lift.
Walking is a great exercise for beginners. If you are out of shape or getting back into shape after an illness oraccident, walking is perfect. You can do a little at a time, or as we like to say, take baby steps.
62. The new study shows that ________.
A. running is better than walking B. walking is the best way of exercising
C. walking and running are not good enough D. walking is as good as running
63. Dr Russell Pate says walking is one of the easiest and safest exercises because ________.
A. walking is a high-impact activity and can be easy on the body
B. walking needs no skills
,
C. walking needs no special skills or equipment and we can do it anywhere
D. walking has more advantages than running
64. What does the underlined word “equipment” in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?
A. 器材 B. 食宿 C. 机会 D. 阶段
65. Which one is TRUE according to this passage?
A. Walking is not good for a beginner.
B. Walking seems to have all of the advantages of running.
C. You’d better drive when you want to go shopping.
D. Walking does harm to all people after an illness or accident.
66. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To tell people that they shouldn’t walk more. B. To tell people that walking is a waste of time.
C. To tell people that they should walk more. D. To tell people that they don’t need to run any more.

Passage 3
Becoming a Minimalist (极简主义者)
I have too many things. My bedroom is often in a mess. I have shelves with dirty books I never read and CDs I
don’t listen to. My drawers are filled with clothes I never wear. I was getting upset (心烦意乱的) that I never had
any space in my bedroom. Then I read about minimalist. Minimalist suggests that you only keep the most necessary
and important things and get rid of (处理掉) everything else. After reading about minimalism, I felt encouraged tosolve my problem.
I started clearing out a lot of the things which I didn’t use. I collected bags of clothes to give to charity (慈善
机构). I sold some of the CDs and books online. Although I knew that I would never need these things again, I still
found it very difficult to get rid of them. My brain tried to stop me from letting them go. I said to myself “I might
need that in the future!” or “Won’t I be sad if I lose that?” But the thing was, I knew I couldn’t keep everything.
After getting lots of things out of my room, I actually became quite excited to see the tidy room with some
fresh space. And a tidy room also makes me have a clear mind! The main idea behind minimalism is to cut down
what you own and really value the things you have. It’s not easy to be a minimalist. We are often told that it is
better to have more things. Advertisements try to make us believe that we will only be happy by spending more
money buying more things. Of course, I’m not a perfect minimalist — I’ve only just started. I still own a lot of
things which I don’t really need, but I think this was a good start. In the future, I will be more mindful of what I
buy. And I will continue to make an effort to get rid of what I don’t need.

【答案】Possible Version 1:
How can we have a successful middle school life?Hi, everyone! I have something to share with you. As we all know, it’s important to have a healthy, happy and
successful middle school life. Here are my opinions on how to do it well.
First of all, we are supposed to learn to study wisely. Listen to the teacher carefully in class, and take notes
carefully. If there is something difficult that you can’t understand, you should talk to your friends and teachers
often, and try to get help from them. Getting on well with your classmates will make you have an unforgettable
memory. Treasure the valuable friendship. What’s more, we should communicate well with our parents, who love
us most. Tell them about your thoughts and feelings. Last but not least, it’s necessary to have good habits. You’d
better go to bed early and have enough sleep. It will keep you active during the day. Doing exercise and eating
healthy food are also important.
Well, all in all, I hope all of you have a successful middle school life.
Possible Version 2:
How can we have a successful middle school life?
Hi, everyone! I have something to share with you. I will go to high school this year. The middle school life
means a lot to me. Now I’d like to talk about my experience in my middle school life.
First, you should learn about some good ways to improve your schoolwork. You should listen to the teachers
carefully in class, finish your homework in time and correct your mistakes in your homework. Don’t give up easily
and you will get good grades at last.
Second, you need to make friends with your teachers and parents. They will help you out when you are in
trouble. Don’t be afraid of telling them about your problems. They may sometimes be strict with you because they
love you and hope you will become good children as well as good students. You should learn to communicate with
them well.
Finally, you must be healthy and strong in order to continue your study and life in senior high school. So doing
sports is also very important. Learn to have good habits and eat healthily. I hope you will have a successful middle
school life in next three years.
