Through the strict rehearsal period of dancing six days a week, I found it vital to 47 up the material fast with every last bit of concentration. It is that extreme 48 to detail (细节) and stress on practice that set us 49.

I learned to make each performance better than the last.Today, when I look at the unbelievable company that I have the great 54 of being a part of, not only as a member, but as a dance captain, I see a 55 that has inspired not only generations of little girls but a splendid company that continues to develop and grow-and inspires people every day to follow their dreams.36.

It takes more than just practice to become an Olympian. Gold medal performances require some serious nutrition. Have you ever wondered what these successful athletes eat to stay in peak shape?Keri Glassman, a r egistered dietitian and founder of Nutritious Life Meals, appeared on“Good Morning America”today to give you a glimpse into the diets ofsome top athletes. Some of their meals could surprise you.Crazy Calorie CountGlassman said Olympians eat a lot of food—quantities that for ordinary people would constitute pigging out. One secret of swimmer Michael Phelps’astonishing performance in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing was consuming as many as 12, 000 calories in one day.Athletes can eat like this and not gain any weight because their workouts are intense. According to Glassman, Phelps’workouts can burn 4, 000 to 6, 000 calories in a day, and those calories must be added in order to train the following day.Snacking SecretsSome athletes eat strange foods that improve their performance. Yohan Blake, the Jamaica sprinter and 100-meter world champion, has stolen champion sprinter Usain Bolt’s thunder on the track during the Olympic trials. Asked about how he gets his energy, Blake answered that he eats 16 bananas per day, Glassman said.Jonathan Horton, the lead gymnast on the US team, has a blood sugar problem. His solution is honey. When he starts to feel shaky at the gym, he takes honey to boost his energy, Glassman said.Foods for RecoveryWhat are the best foods to help the body recover after harsh competition?For Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte, the recovery meal is grilled chicken breasts with Alfredo sauce, whole-grain spaghetti and a salad with lemon juice and olive oil. Lochte, who recently cut out junk food, candy and soda, has undertaken a strength-training regimen(养生法)that involves flipping tractor tires and tossing beer kegs, Glassman said.【文章大意】运动员的成长不仅需要锻炼, 还需要营养, 合理膳食也至关重要。

Food sometimes gets poisoned with harmful things. A person who eats such food can get an illness called food poisoning. Food poisoning is usually not serious, but some types are deadly. The symptoms of food poisoning usually begin within hours of eating the poisoned food. Fever is one of the most common symptoms.Certain microorganisms(微生物) cause most types of food poisoning. Bacteria and other microorganisms can poison eggs, meat, vegetables, and many other foods. After entering the body, these tiny living things release(释放) poisons that make people sick.Some chemicals can also cause food poisoning. They are often added to food while it is being grown, processed, or prepared. For example, many farmers spray chemicals on crops to kill weeds and insects. Some people may have a bad reaction to those chemicals when they eat the crops.Some plants and animals contain natural poisons that are harmful to people. These include certain kinds of seafood, grains, nuts, seeds, beans, and mushrooms.When people handle food properly, the risk of food poisoning is very small. Microorganisms multiply rapidly in dirty places and in warm temperatures. This means that people should never touch food with dirty hands or put food on unwashed surfaces. Food should be kept in a refrigerator to stop microorganisms from growing. Meat needs to be cooked thoroughly to kill any dangerous microorganisms. People should also wash food covered with chemicals before eating it. Finally, people should not eat wild mushrooms or other foods that grow in the wild. Some of these foods may contain natural materials that are poisonous to humans. In addition, some types of fish can be poisonous.Most people recover from food poisoning after a few days of resting and drinking extra water. If people eat natural poisons, they must go to the hospital right away to have their stomachs emptied.1. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Food when poisoned can make people sick.B. Food poisoning means death.C. Food poisoning comes in varieties.D. Food poisoning can be serious.2. We know from the passage that the symptoms of food poisoning.A. are always accompanied by a feverB. are too common to be notedC. can be noticed within hoursD. can be ignored3. Food poisoning can be caused by all the following EXCEPT.A. some chemicalsB. low temperaturesC. some tiny living thingsD. certain natural materials4. From Paragraph 5, we can learn that.A. mushrooms should not be eatenB. vegetables are safer than meat and seafoodC. natural poisons are more dangerous than chemicalsD. different types of food should be handled differently5. It can be inferred from the passage that.A. natural materials are safe in food processingB. chemicals are needed in food processingC. food poisoning can be kept under controlD. food poisoning is out of control【参考答案】1--5 、BCBDC社会生活类---阅读理解。

Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers.Brain-computer interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated(展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.“Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories:communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.1. BCI is a technology that can.A. help to update computer systemsB. link the human brain with computersC. help the disabled to recoverD. control a person’s thoughts2. How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?A. By controlling his muscles.B. By talking to the machine.C. By moving his hand.D. By using his mind.3. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?A. scalp→computer→cap→wheelchairB. computer→cap→scalp→wheelchairC. scalp→cap→computer→wheelchairD. cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair4. The team will test with real patients to.A. make profits from themB. prove the technology useful to themC. make them live longerD. learn about their physical condition5. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Switzerland, the BCI Research CenterB. New Findings About How the Human Brain WorksC. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the DisabledD.

Steven Spielberg's 2002 science-fiction thriller Minority Report produced a world where computers could read minds and predict the future. It seemed fanciful at the time, but fantasy is edging closer to fact.On Jan. 3l, a team of scientist sat the UC Berkeley, led by Robert Knight programmed computers to decode (解码) brain waves and replay them as words. Five months earlier, another group of Berkeley scientists showed their colleagues short movies and used computers to play back in color what people saw.These experiments are a big advance from 2006, when a French scientist first replayed images from a human mind, a black-and-white checkerboard pattern. The possibilities are great: a disabl ed person could “speak”； doctors could access the mind of a patient who fainted; you could rewatch your dreams on an iPad.There are, of course, equally dark side, such as the involuntary take out of information from the brain.In spite of these breakthroughs,Jack Gallant, the neuroscientist who led the first Berkeley team, says current technology for decoding brain activity is still “relatively primitive.” The field is held back by its poor machinery, in particular the fMRI.“Eventually,” says Gallant,“someone will invent a decoding machine you can wear as a hat.” Such an advance into the human mind, he says, might take 30 years.Still, the recent advances at Berkeley offer small answers, which scientists can use to begin unlocking the secrets of memory and consciousness.l. What is the best title for the passage?A. New technology can read your mindB. Fantasy is edging closer to factC. A new discovery in human brainD. The intelligent computers in the future2. What did scientist sat the UC Berkeley do?A. They produced a fanciful world.B. They made computers jump forward like a human.C. They managed to translate brain waves into language.D. They used computers to make short movies.3. Which of the following is impossible for the research?A. It can help a disabled man recover his ability of speech.B. Doctors can read a patient's mind even if he is unconscious.C. People will know what happens in their dreams.D. People's thoughts may be given away.4.

Dear Rudyard Kipling,Father has consistently tried to instill(灌输) a sense of being a man in me ever since I was very young . When I reached the age of twelve he began taking me to his auto body shop. He told me this tough job would build me into a man of character. But this all changed a year ago when my mother passed away and stumbled upon your poem, If.My mother was the person who could understand me. If I ever got tired during my work hours at the shop I could call her to come and pick me up. It was my mother who instilled the love of literature and languages in me. My mother spoke six langu ages fluently and had thousands of books, which still sit in the attic of our house. It was in this “library” of hers that I picked up a book of poetry from a cold metal shelf and found your po em, If.Because of the death of my mother I felt alone, as if I belonged to no family. The image of a man was completely shatt ered when I saw him break down and cry, which looked so pa thetic（凄惨的）and “unmanly” compared to his usual stoic （禁欲主义者）and emotionless countenance. Yet I remained silent remembe ring the golden words: “If you can keep your head when all ab out you/ Are losing theirs and blaming it on you…you’ll be a Man, my son!”If reminded me to remain calm and “keep my head” because I wanted to be a man and wanted to be the one supporting my family. I sacrificed my ability to compete in a winter sport so th at I could stay home and cook for my family and clean the hou se. My father saw this and our relationship has grown much st ronger. He finally respected me for who I was and told me he was proud to have a man for his son. Through this poem, I re alize that to be a man is not about putting weights on a barbell （杠铃）but rather putting the weight of others on your back. Your poem was so much more than just a simple list of guid elines or morals that some see it as; it really changed my life and my relationship with my dad.41. According to the passage, what kind of person does the a uthor’s father expect him to be?A. A person who will shoulder responsibilities.B. A person who knows how to earn a lot of money.C. A person who knows how to do housework.D. A person who respects his parents.【答案】A【解析】细节理解题。

高考英语文章阅读类：暑假练习题〔6〕及答案解析第二节:任务型阅读 ()阅读以下材料，从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出符合各小题要求的最正确选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑，选项中有一项为多余选项.Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.The colored part of the eye is called the iris. There are three basic eye colours ─ brown, blue and green. A few albino people have red or pink eyes, but these are very rare. Many people believe that blue eyes are more delicate than brown eyes. In fact they are just as tough as brown eyes, although they are more sensitive to light.We only see part of the eyeball, although the whole eye is as big as a table tennis ball. Light enters the eye through the pupil and passes through the lens. The lens focuses the light onto the retina at the back of the eye. The retina sends the signal to the brain along the optic nerve. The image on the retina is actually upside-down, but the brain corrects it. As we get older our eyesight becomes worse. This happens because the lens isn’t as flexible as when we are young and the eye muscles are weaker.Our eyes are the most important of our five senses. We receive 80% of our information about the world through our eyes. We also send signals to other people with our eyes. Some eye signals are unconscious. When we look at something nice, our pupils get bigger. But when we don’t like something, they become smaller. We cry when we are unhappy and sometimes when we are very happy. But we can also control some eye signals. For example, we can wink at someone or raise an eyebrow. Sunglasses make someone appear mysterious or dangerous, because they hide that eyes and so we can’t see the signals.64.______________________________We find large eyes more attractive. Children have large eyes in proportion to their heads. Cartoon characters always have large eyes, too. We can’t actually change our eyes, but we can make them look bigger with make-up. Eye make-up isn’t new. Pictures in the Pyramids show that the ancient Egyptians both men and women-used it. False eyelashes can make eyelashes longer. Eye shadow on the eyelids can make the eyes look bigger and more dramatic．Glasses can also make eyes look bigger.We do not normally look into someone’s eyes for long, especially when they are very close. Eye contact can be very threatening, so people only do it when they want to threaten someone. It is also very intimate. This is why lovers gaze into each other’s eyes. It’s also why people don’t look at each other in lifts.A. Ways to beautify eyesB. Proper use of eye contactC. Techniques of sending eye signalsD. Colours of people’s eyesE.

高二英语假期检测题六第一部分阅读理解（共两节,满分40分)第一节（共15小题：每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑AWhen a dirty and untidy orange cat showed up in the prison yard，I was one of the first to go out there and pet it．I hadn't touched a cat or a dog in over 20 years．I spent at least 20 minutes，knelt down behind the kitchen as the cat rolled around,relaxed．What he was expressing outwardly, I was feeling inwardly．It was an amazing bit of grace to feel him under my hand and note that I was reaching a life or another creature with something as simple as my care．Over the next few days，there were other prisoners responding to the cat．Every yard period，a group of prisoners gathered there．They stood around talking and taking turns petting the cat．These were guys you wouldn't usually find talking to each other．Several times I saw an officer in the group，not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners．Bowls of milk and water appeared along with bread, wisely placed under the edge of the dustbin to keep the birds from getting it．The cat was obviously homeless and in pretty bad shape．People said that the cat came to the right place．He's getting treated like aking．This was true．but as I watched I was also thinking about what the cat was doing for us．There was a lot of talk about what’s wrong with prisons in America．We need more programs．We need more psychologists or treatment of various kinds．Some may even talk about making prisons more kind．But I think what we really need is a chance to practise our own kindness．Not receive it，but give it．After more than two decades here，I know kindness is not a value that’s encouraged．It's often seen as a weakness．Instead，the culture encourages keeping your head down,minding your own business,and never letting yourself be weak．The cat did my heart good to see the effect he had on me and the men here．By simply saying，”I need some help here"，he did something important for us．He needed us．And we needed to be needed．I believe we all do．1．Which of the following statements is true?A．The cat was dirty because it was kept in prison．B．The author realized the importance of practising kindness．C．The officer in the prison enjoyed petting the cat．D．The prisoners prepared food for both the cat and birds．2．We can infer from the third paragraph that______．A．caring for others is encouraged in American prisonsB．the American prison culture will be improvedC．showing love to others can make prisoners strongD．the author is not content with the prison culture3．What is the best title for the passage?A．Animals Need Care．B．Prison Culture is Important．C．Caring Makes Us Human．D．Everyone Needs to be Cared for．4．In Paragraph 2,the author menti oned that “Several times I saw an officer in thegroup,not chasing people away，but just watching and seeming to enjoy along withthe prisoners．”to______ ．A．show us the officer and prisoners get along well with each otherB．show us the officer and prisoners all like the catC．show us the American prison culture does need improvement D．show us the American prison culture is greatBOpened in 1971, the Magic Kingdom was the first theme park at Walt Disney World.

The 2012 London Olympics had enough problems to worry about. But one more has just been added—a communications blackout caused by solar storms.After a period of calm within the Sun,scientists have detected the signs of a fresh cycle of sunspots that could peak in 2012,just in time for the arrival of the Olympic torch in London.Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosions that could throw billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth,causing strong solar storms that could jam the telecommunications satellites and internet links sending live Olympic broadcast from London.“The Sun’s activity has a strong influence on the Earth. The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar ma ximum which could affect the functions of communications satellites,“ said Professor Richard Harrison,head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.At the peak of the cycle,violent outbursts calledcoronal mass ejections(日冕物质抛射) occur in the Sun’s atmosphere,throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter. “A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometres per hour. Such events can expose astronauts to a deadly amount,can disable satellites,cause power failures on Earth and disturb communications,” Professor Harrison added. The risk is greatest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots.Next week in America,NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory(SDO),which will take images of the Sun that are 10 times clearer than the most advanced televisions available.The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of thesolar flares(太阳耀斑) and explosions as they occur.Professor Richard Holdaway,the lab’s director,said that the SDO should be able to provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite com munications on Earth. “If we have advance warning,we’ll be able to reduce the damage. What you don’t want is things switchingoff for a week with no idea of what’s caused the problem,” he said.1. The phrase “communications blackout” in Paragraph 1 most pr obably refers to during the 2012 Olympics.A. the extinguishing of the Olympic torchB. the collapse of broadcasting systemsC. the transportation breakdown in LondonD. the destruction of weather satellites2. What can be inferred about the solar activity described in the passage?A. The most fatal matter from the corona falls onto Earth.B. The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle.C. It takes several seconds for the charged matter to reach Earth.D. The number of sunspots declines after coronal mass ejections.3. According to the passage,NASA will launch a satellite to.A. take images of the solar systemB. provide early warning of thunderstormsC. keep track of solar activitiesD. improve the communications on Earth4. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Solar Storms:An Invisible KillerB. Solar Storms:Earth Environment in DangerC. Solar Storms:Threatening the Human RaceD. Solar Storms:Human Activities to Be Troubled【参考答案】1—4、BDCD人物传记型阅读理解专题导读人物传记是记叙文体的一种，主要描写某人的生平事迹、趣闻轶事、生活背景、个性特征、成长和奋斗历程等，包含记叙文的时间、地点、人物、事件等要素。
