【题目】 It's at this time of the year that marathon recovery, not marathon training, starts to take center stage.

Research indicates that the muscle damage from running a marathon can last up to two weeks. The research also indicates that muscle soreness(肌肉酸痛)is not a good indicator of muscular healing. In other words, just because you aren't sore anymore doesn't mean that you are fully healed. This is the danger for marathon runners: post-marathon muscular soreness fades after a few days but minor damage within the muscle cells remains. If you return to full training too soon--running more and faster than the tissues are ready for--you risk delaying full recovery and the chance to get ready for your next goal.

The solution, it appears, is to recognize (and accept) that the muscles will take a while to heal and to be prepared to take it easy for the first couple of weeks (even longer if you’re particularly sore after your marathon).While the research isn't very promising when it comes to things to do to reduce soreness and aid healing, a couple of concepts appear to help. First, providing gentle blood flow to the area helps bring healing nutrients (营养) into the muscles and also helps to remove waste products and damaged tissue. Walking and gentle massage(按摩)can help, particularly in the first few days after a marathon. Once muscle soreness has significantly reduced (usually two to four days after the race), light jogging can commence. Just be mindful to run very slowly.

No runner wants to get super fit and then lose that during the recovery process. But since you must reduce your training load following your marathon, it can be difficult as to how much and how soon to insert running into your post-marathon training.

1When should marathon runners return to full training?

A. About half a month after the competition.

B. A few days after soreness disappears.

C. Before the tissues recover completely.

D. Before the next game draws closer.

2How can marathon runners reduce their muscle soreness?

A. Through family care.

B. By doing gentle exercise.

C. Through medical treatment.

D. By removing damaged tissue.

3Which of the following best explains “commence” underlined in Paragraph 3?

A. Fit.B. Heal.

C. Start.D. Mend.

4What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Reducing Training LoadB. Soreness with Sports

C. Healing Muscle SorenessD. Recovery after Marathon

【题目】ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES AND LEARNING TRIPS

NACA (Native American Community Academy) involves students in academic activities and learning trips in order to strengthen the classroom learning experience. Some examples of our commitment to academic activities include:

Student Demonstrations

At the end of every school year, NACA celebrates student learning and growth through Student Demonstrations. Each student chooses a project that reflects their best work and demonstrates it publicly for family and community members. Through this process students also practice the skills of giving a proper introduction, sharing content knowledge, making a personal connection, bettering their visual and oral presentation skills and interacting with their community.

Student Council

Student Council is a group of peer-elected representatives. They serve as leaders of their grade level and promote NACA Core Values. They model positive relationships among each other and staff. Student Council will facilitate school wide events to foster school spirit.

Potential Leaders Development Trip to Washington DC

Every summer, about thirty 8th grade students take part in a Potential Leaders Development. A trip to Washington DC is an important opportunity that promotes youth leadership for students while engaging them on a deeper academic level. It provides an experience-based understanding of the endless opportunities that higher education can provide and encourages the pursuit of academic success. Students who attend this trip are greatly impacted, long for completing their high school education in a more focused and determined manner and begin making plans for college. The trip also creates awareness of the significance of Washington DC/US government and importance of government to government relationships.

【题目】Humans are much worse at estimating risk than we think we are. While we overestimate the risk of rare but disastrous occurrences, such as being attacked by a shark, many of us seriously underestimate the risk of behaviors that reduce our lifespan (寿命), such as smoking.

In fact, there are two types of risks — acute and chronic. Acute risks are those that may kill you immediately, such as a car accident.

Chronic risks don’t kill you immediately but rob you of your life a little at a time. If you choose to eat an unhealthy diet, for instance, you may appear to be getting away with this, but you risk developing illnesses in future that may shorten your life.

The problem is we value things much less when they occur in the future. Distant events are abstract — we don’t know how and when they might affect us -~ so we care less about them.

Take smoking for example. It is just about the worst choice you can make for your health. Every two cigarettes that you smoke takes 30 minutes off your lifespan.

In contrast, eating vegetables is clearly very good for you, with each serve increasing your lifespan by two hours. This is a massive health gain and clearly should be a strong motivator for you to eat healthily.

Drinking coffee is also good for you, though with limited health gains. Each cup of coffee (assuming you drink reasonably), is associated with approximately a ten-minute gain in your lifespan.

Even drinking alcohol may add to your lifespan, with each serve adding 30 minutes to the length of your life. But this health gain is only true for the first drink; following drinks shorten lifespan. Alcohol also causes an acute risk when consumed in excess. Too much drinking gives you a 25 in one million chance of sudden death.

We shouldn’t be too nervous about exposure to risks. Life is all about making decisions about risks and rewards, and we all have a different starting point for what we consider acceptable risks to take. Even if we don’t always make the healthiest decisions, at least we can make ones that are fully informed.

1Which of the following belongs to acute risks?

A. Eating junk food every day.

B. Being hit in a plane crash.

C. Staying up late every night.

D. Being too much overweight.

2Why do people often ignore chronic risks?

A. They can often get away with them.

B. They can rid themselves of their side effects.

C. They don’t reduce their lifespan.

D. They will not cause immediate death.

3Which habit will shorten your lifespan?

A. Eating vegetables every day.

B. Smoking only one cigarette a day.

C. Drinking a cup of coffee every day.

D. Drinking alcohol reasonably.

4What does the underlined phrase “in excess” in the 8th paragraph mean?

A. At random.

B. In need.

C. More than enough.

D. Ahead of time.
