Nowadays school students’ health becomes weaker. It is found that they _________ pay much attention to sports. Is it because they have no interest in sports? Certainly not. Teenagers live very busy study lives now and often forget to think about sports.

Because of the pressure(压力) from their parents and teachers, they _________ to work harder and spend most of their time on books. So many of them almost become bookworms. Books have kept them from sports. As for the students themselves, they want to get good results _________ they can have a good future. So they spend all of their spare time studying for improvement and _________ school sports.

However, it is important to take a correct attitude about study. A quick mind rarely goes along with a weak body. _________ a strong body, you can never achieve anything.

【解析】

文章大意：本文主要讲现在的学生们健康状况不好，因为他们极少运动，而是把时间都放在了学习上，然而健壮的身体非常重要，运动对长时间用脑的学生来说是非常有用的。

【1】句意：据发现，他们几乎不很重视运动。

hardly几乎不；likely很可能；usually通常；nearly几乎。根据上文“Nowadays school students’ health becomes weaker.”可知学生们应是极少把注意力放在运动上，用hardly表否定意义。故选A。

【2】句意：每星期，他们不得不在学校为各种考试和测试做准备。

teach教导；enjoy享受；practice练习；prepare准备。结合题干中“for all kinds of examinations and tests”可推出此处时说为考试做准备；prepare sb. for sth.使某人对某事有所准备，是固定搭配。故选D。

【3】句意：因为来自父母和老师的压力，他们不得不更加努力学习，花费大部分时间在书本上。

learn学习；decide决定；have有；refuse拒绝。根据题干中“Because of the pressure from their parents and teachers”可推出他们迫于压力不得不努力学习，用have to表示“必须；不得不”。故选C。

【4】句意：至于学生们自己，他们想取得好成绩以便他们能有一个好未来。

now that由于；unless除非；so that以便，为了；as soon as一……就……。根据句意“至于学生们自己，他们想取得好成绩____他们能有一个好未来”可知空后表目的，用so that引导目的状语从句。故选C。

【5】句意：因此他们花费他们所有的空闲时间在学习的提高上，放弃了学校运动。

give up放弃；take up开始从事；join in参加；go in for对……感兴趣。根据题干中“they spend all of their spare time studying for improvement”可知他们把时间都用在了学习上，由此可推出是放弃了运动。故选A。

【6】句意：没有健壮的身体，你会一事无成。

Besides除了……之外（还）；Except (用于所言不包括的人或事物前)除……之外；Without没有；With和。下文讲运动队学生的诸多好处，可推出此处是说“没有健壮的身体，你会一事无成”，用without符合题意。故选C。
