Question

There are two kinds of physical activity which require special training. The first demands exact careful movements of the muscles. This kind of activity must be strictly controlled because even a slight movement in the wrong direction will lead a mistake. To type quickly, for example, a person needs training; the slightest movement of a finger in the wrong direction may cause a spelling mistake. A dancer who has to dance on the point of her shoes or turn around on one foot must be trained for a long period of time before she can sense her own center and balance herself. You may have seen a girl walking on a rope across an empty space, which, too, requires a lot of practice.  
The second kind of physical activity needs greater strength or extra effort. Most of us get tired if we try to run half a mile without stopping, but a specially-trained person can do this without much effort. Three years ago, some scientists carried out experiments, which produced meaningful and unexpected results. They wanted to find out whether a certain amount of physical exercise would injure those suffering from heart problems. They selected some male patients and trained them in continuous bicycle riding. They were surprised to find that the harmful effect of given amount of physical effort was actually less on the hearts of these trained patients than on those of the patients who were not similarly trained. This is important because it shows that regular physical exercise enables us to make better use of the oxygen we breathe in and that this training, in fact, reduces the amount of work our hearts do. Many tasks which are hard for untrained people are not hard at all for trained people.
小题1:The first kind of physical activity must be strictly controlled because _________.

A．a mistake in the wrong direction is dangerous to the fingers

B．a wrong movement in a direction will cause no mistakes

C．a movement in the wrong direction will cause a mistake

D．a slight movement of a finger will lead to a mistake

小题2:What must a dancer do before she can balance herself?

A．She must dance on the point of her shoes.

B．She must receive long-time training.

C．She must turn around on one foot.

D．She must perform again and again.

小题3:The experiments done by some scientists showed that ________.

A．some male patients were asked to ride bicycles regularly in the experiments

B．the physical exercise had more harmful effect on the hearts of the untrained patients

C．the physical exercise was harmless to the male patients with heart trouble

D．the physical exercise could be helpful for the patients to take in more oxygen

小题4:What would be the best title for this text?

A．Training Our Bodies	B．Physical Activities
C．Movement Training	D．Extra Body Effort

Answer 1

小题1:C
小题2:B
小题3:B
小题4:A

小题1:该题为细节判断题。从原文第一段This kind of activity must be strictly controlled because even a slight movement in the wrong direction will lead a mistake.，就可得出答案。
小题2:这也是一道细节判断题。从原文第一段A dance…….. must be trained for a long period of time before she can sense her own center and balance herself.，就可轻而易举地得出正确答案。
小题3:该题为细节理解判断题。由于原文（第二段）The were surprised to find that the harmful effect of a given amount of physical effort was actually less on the hearts of these trained patients than on those of the patents who were not similarly trained这样一句话很长，所以，虽然通过该题的题干很容易就能找到相应的文字，但是要想理解这样长的一个句子是比较困难的。对于这样长的句子，我们要化繁为简，先把句子的主要内容找出来看懂，即：the harmful effect was actually less on the heats，这句话的意思是：事实上，对于心脏的不好影响比较小的。然后，我们再把解释的内容加上去并结合上文看：the harmless effect of a given amount of physical effort，也就是说：（那些心脏病人）在给与了大运动量的训练之后，事实上，对于心脏的不好影响比较小的。我们再来看后面 on the hearts of these trained patients than on those of the patents who were not similarly trained，意思是：那些没有经过类似运动训练的病人。现在我们再把整个句子看一遍，就不难理解其意了，理解了文意，答案也就不言而喻了。
小题4:该题是一道归纳主旨大意题，难度相对比较大，它要求考生通读全文，概括全文主旨大意。考生无法从短文中直接找答案，通过对全文信息处理可得知作者对两不同类型的运动的描述，无论是技巧型运动，还是力量型运动，都需要坚持不断的训练，看懂这一层，就可以明白作者的写作意图了，题目也自然就可以选出来了。
