【题目】Training for a marathon (马拉松) requires careful preparation and steady, gradual increases in the length of the runs. 【1】, buy the best-fitting running shoes you can find. No one can say which brand will work best for you or feel best on your feet, so you have to rely on your experience and on the feel of each pair as you shop. When you have found shoes that seem right, walk in them for a few days to double-check the fit. 【2】. As always, you should stretch (伸展) at least ten minutes before each run to prevent injuries.

During the first week, do not think about distance, but run five minutes longer each day. 【3】, it is wise to take a day off to rest. But during the next week, set a goal of at least a mile and a half per run. 【4】. After two weeks, start timing yourself. 【5】. Depending on the kind of race you plan to enter, you can set up a timetable for the remaining weeks before the race.

A. After six days

B. For a good marathon runner

C. Before you begin your training

D. With each day, increase the distance by a half mile

E. If they still feel good, you can begin running in them

F. Time spent for preparation raises the quality of training

G. Now you are ready to figure out a goal of improving distance and time

【答案】

【1】C

【2】E

【3】A

【4】D

【5】G

【解析】试题分析：本文主要介绍了进行马拉松训练的具体做法。首先要为训练做好准备：准备好跑鞋以及训练前的热身动作。第一周：训练跑步时间的逐天增加；第二周：训练跑步距离的逐天增加；两周后，开始计时跑，制订逐步提高跑步时间和距离的计划。

【1】C考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。该空后面提供的语境“…buy the bestfitting, bestbuilt running shoes you can find.”说明这是为了跑马拉松进行的准备工作，这件事应该是在进行马拉松训练之前做的事情，与“before you begin your training”有关。故选C。

【2】E考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据该空前面提供的语境“When you have found shoes that seem right, walk in them for a few days to doublecheck the fit.”可知E选项中they指的是前面提到的shoes，属于指代一致性，另外feel good与the fit有关。穿着合适的鞋再进行跑步训练与E中的“you can begin running in them”一致。故选E.

【3】A考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据该空前提供的语境“During the first week, do not think about distance, but run five minutes longer each day.”可知这里提到了一周七天的时间，再根据空格后的“it is wise to take a day off to rest”可知剩余的就是六天的时间，与A项意思一致。故选A.

【4】D考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。该空前面提供的语境“But during the next week, set a goal of at least a mile and a half per run.”与D项的“每天增加半英里”意义相符。故选D.

【5】G考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。前两句提到了逐日增加跑步的长度，两周后开始计时，与G中的“improving distance and time”有关，故选G.

【题目】Americans plan parties for many reasons. As in other cultures, many Americans attend parties for weddings and religious or national holidays. But some parties are especially American. For example, a group of neighbors may gather on their street to eat food, play music and visit with one another. This is called a block party. A woman might invite a group of women to a party called a baby shower for a friend who is about to give birth. Guests bring presents for the new baby.

Americans also attend tailgate parties. A tailgate is the back end of a truck or other vehicle that opens down. The tailgate parties are a big part of sports culture in the United States. Friends bring food and drink to a sports event. They eat together in the parking area of the sports stadium.

Birthday parties are also very popular. Many parents organize a party for their child around a theme. Birthday parties usually include gifts and a birthday cake with candles. In many parts of the United States, cupcakes have become a popular replacement for cakes.

Birthday parties can be low cost or very costly. Some parents take their children’s birthday parties very seriously, even when the child is too young to fully understand the celebration.

One group of parents started a website called Birthdays Without Pressure. They decided that some parents were under too much social pressure to plan costly parties for their children. The group sees this movement as an example of America’s culture of “too much stuff”. The group’s website gives suggestions on how to keep birthday celebrations simple, meaningful and fun without spending a lot of money. Their advice may be very helpful during this period of economic recession (萧条)．

【题目】Upon entering college, Yang Yi was uncertain about a lot of things. However, the 19-year-old international economics and trade student was certain about one thing: She wanted to participate in animal welfare efforts.

“I'm .always a nature and animal lover," she said. She joined the environmental protection association at her school. Now being president of a group of 25, she leads its efforts to help stray（流浪）cats and dogs by raising money to buy them food and collecting old clothes to make them homes.

However, sometimes the association raises doubts. Some students have questioned whether helping stray animals breaks the laws of nature. "We tried to resolve the controversy," Yang said. “For wild animals, the best way to protect them is to preserve their environment and their natural habitat, and to let them live their own way. However, for animals that depend heavily on humans, such as dogs and cats, the proper way to treat them is to respect them and take care of them." Besides, if not accommodated properly, stray animals can bring threats to public health, as they are the main cause of rabies（狂犬病）in cities. "Now, many young people in China have agreed upon the need to strike a balance between humans and nature. The only problem is how," said Yang. Yang and her fellow volunteers are cautious about what they do to help. For instance, sometimes people feed stray cats human food such as chocolate. But Yang and her friends point that such food can be dangerous to stray cats.

Yang also cooperates with Non-Governmental Organizations to spread animal protection knowledge. One of their recent exhibits was about animals in the entertainment industry. "We are still figuring out the best way to protect animals, but simple deeds such as saying no to animal performances can prevent wildlife from being captured and tamed. Step by step, we'll eventually reach our goal," she said.

【1】Why did Yang Yi join the environmental protection association?

A. She majored in a relevant field.

B. She wanted to protect nature and animals.

C. She was uncertain about her life.

D. She intended to know about animal welfare.

【2】What do the group members do for stray animals?

A. They shelter them with old clothes.

B. They feed human food to them.

C. They train them for entertainment.

D. They donate money to the association.

【3】In paragraph 3,Yang believes that

A. all animals should live naturally

B. young people have known how to balance human and nature

C. stray animals are bound to spread rabies

D. chocolate is not a proper food for stray cats

【4】What does Yang Yi think of her work?

A. Enjoyable. B. Doubtful. C. Hopeful. D. Awful.

【题目】There is one issue that stands out above all the rest, one every student is concerned about, _______ which class he may be from.

A. regardless of B. on account of

C. in addition to D. according to
