C【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出人们过于依赖汽车,这不利于健康城市的建设,因此需要解除对汽车 的依赖,并提出三个措施。【12题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段第一句 "One of the most important changes cities must make to improve life in them is to separate people from their cars.(为了改善城市的生活,城市必须做出的最重要的改变之一就是将人们与汽 车分开。)”可知,改善城市生活最重要的改变就是将人们与汽车分开,可见人们出行对汽车很依赖。故选 A项。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段 u Analysis for the active transport charity Sustrans found that "driving a mile on a minor urban road is twice as likely to kill or seriously injure a child pedestrian, and three times more likely to kill or seriously injure a child cyclist, compared to driving a mile on an urban A-road,“ and that heavy car traffic in residential areas can lead to a rise in social isolation. LTNs reduce this danger, leading to a three-fold reduction in injuries, and have been shown to increase the number of visitors to local businesses.(积极交通慈善机构 Sustrans 进行的分析发现,“与在城市一级道路上行驶一英里相比,在城市次要道路上行驶一英里,导致儿童行人 死亡或严重受伤的可能性是前者的两倍,而导致儿童骑自行车者死亡或严重伤害的可能性是前者的三倍”, 居民区的汽车交通拥挤可能会导致社会孤立的加剧。LTN减少了这一危险,导致受伤人数减少了三倍,并 已表明增加了当地企业的游客数量。)”可知,LTN使得在次要道路上因交通工具导致的儿童重伤和死亡人 数减少,因此它被证实是使孩子远离交通事故的有效措施。故选D项。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段第一句 "One of the most important changes cities must make to improve life in them is to separate people from their cars.(为了改善城市的生活,城市必须做出的最重要的改变之一就是将人们与汽 车分开。)”可知,改善城市生活最重要的改变就是将人们与汽车分开,可见人们出行对汽车很依赖,本文 旨在解决这个问题;根据第二段第一句 "The idea of a low-traffic neighbourhood (LTN) - where cars are banned from quieter "rat runs'(偏僻小路)to keep them on the major routes - has taken off in parts of the UK.(低交通量 社区(LTN)的想法已经在英国部分地区流行起来。在这里,汽车被禁止在较安静的“老鼠跑道”上行驶, 以保证它们在主干道上行驶。)”,第四段第一句 "Also popular are e-scooter hire trials, which are taking place in towns and cities including Middlesbrough, Bristol and Chelmsford.(试行电子滑板车租赁也很受欢迎,目前 正在米德尔斯堡、布里斯托尔和切尔姆斯福德等城镇进行。)”和第五段第一二句"But thafs not all. The world's first hub for demonstrating electric air taxis and drones opened in Coventry earlier this year.(但这还彳;是 全部。今年早些时候,世界上第一个演示电动空中出租车和无人机的中心在考文垂开始营业。)”可知,二, 四,五段分别提出一种措施;根据第三段最后一句"LTNs reduce this danger, leading to a three-fold reduction in injuries, and have been shown to increase the number of visitors to local businesses. (LTN 减少 了 这危险, 导 致受伤人数减少了三倍,并已表明增加了当地企业的游客数量。)”可知,第三段延续第二段,继续讨论LTNo因此文章结构应该是总分总,第一段总起介绍,第二三段讨论措施一,第四段讨论措施二,第五段 讨论措施三,第六段总结。故选B项。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据本文最后一段 u Weaning us off our car addiction is one of the more difficult barriers standing between us and healthier cities. The first step that needs to be taken will be to tackle the dominance of the car. (it 我们摆脱对汽车的依赖是我们与更健康的城市之间更困难的障碍之一。需要采取的第一步是解决汽车的主 导地位。)”可知,文章最后作者再次强调要摆脱对汽车的依赖,而前文几段也提出了三种措施,故可推测 本文作者旨在介绍解除汽车依赖的措施。故选C项。第二节(共5小题:每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5分)根据下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。People refer to never forgetting how to ride a bike or throw a baseball as examples of “muscle memory”,the result of a motor learning. 16 It is a phenomenon that previously trained muscles acquire strength after a period of disuse.Previous research has shown that the changes actually persist in the muscles themselves. In one study of mice, the results suggest that after nuclei in muscle cells multiply in response to an overload of training, those extra nuclei aren't lost during subsequent periods of inactivity. Once you have got additional nuclei, you are banking the capacity.17In fact, a recent study revealed that less than eight weeks of retraining were needed to reach the post-training level. But how quickly you regain your former fitness depends on how fit you were initially, how long the layoff was. how old you are and how long you'd been exercising.18 It means you still have a distinct advantage when it comes to regaining your former level of fitness. And the principle applies to both resistance training and endurance training. The best way to regain your muscle memory is to start at a level below what you were accustomed to doing, and then gradually increase in terms of duration, frequency, then intensity. 19Ultimately, muscle memory is a payoff for all the past work you put into learning a sport. 20 You will never know how much muscle memory you may have until you start training again.A. The best way to tap into it is to “get back on the horse”.B. Physiologists, on the other hand, define it in a different way.C. This convinces the researchers that muscle memory may not be long lasting.D. That is to say, we can do the sports automatically without conscious thought.E. It is generally safe to increase these elements by 5 percent every week or two.F. It is evident that the more you exercise, the more muscle memory savings you will have.G. All this news about muscle memory is encouraging for those who fell off the fitness scheme.【答案】16.B17. A 18.G19. E 20. F【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了肌肉记忆是一种你先前训练的肌肉在一段时间不用后,会获得 力量的现象,它是你过去为学习一项运动付出的所有努力的回报,之前你锻炼得越多,你的肌肉记忆力就 会储存得越多。【16题详解】上文“ People refer to never forgetting how to ride a bike or throw a baseball as examples of "muscle memory”, the result of a motor learning .(人们把永远不会忘记如何骑自行车或投掷棒球作为“肌肉记忆”的例子,这是运 动机能学习的结果)”指出人们用举例子的方法给“肌肉记忆”下定义,下文“It is a phenomenon that previously trained muscles acquire strength after a period of disuse.(这是一种现象,先前训练的肌肉在一段0寸间不用后, 会获得力量。)”是“肌肉记忆”的定义,由此可知,空处引起下文,指出其他人对肌肉记忆的定义,B项"Physiologists, on the other hand, define it in a different way.(另一方面,生理学家则用不同的方式来定义它。)” 指出生物学家给“肌肉记忆”下了定义,其中“it”代指上文“muscle memory”,故选B。【17题详解】上文 “Once you have got additional nuclei, you are banking the capacity.(旦你有了额夕卜的原子核,你就是在 储蓄能量。)”指出有了额外的原子核,你就是在储蓄能量,空处应该承接上文,指出我们应该如何做才能 挖掘出自己的能量,A项“The best way to tap into it is to “get back on the horse”.(最好的方法就是“重新振 作起来”。)”符合,同时顺承下文,下文 u In fact, a recent study revealed that less than eight weeks of retraining were needed to reach the post-training level.(事实上,最近的一项研究显示,要达到培训后的水平,只需要不 到8周的再培训。)”描述了要通过在培训来挖掘自己的能量,故选A。【18题详解】上文 “But how quickly you regain your former fitness depends on how fit you were initially, how long the layoff was. how old you are and how long you'd been exercising.(但是你恢复健康的速度取决于你最初的健康状况, 以及停止活动的时间。你多大了,锻炼了多长时间。)”提到一项研究指出要恢复到之前的水平,需要考虑 最初的健康状况,以及停止活动的时间,你多大了,锻炼了多长时间几个方面,下文“It means you still have a distinct advantage when it comes to regaining your former level of fitness这意味当谈到恢复您以前的健康水 平时,你仍然有一个明显的优势。)”指出你仍然有优势恢复到之前的水平,空出应该承上启下,G项“AH this news about muscle memory is encouraging for those who fell off the fitness scheme.(所有这些关于肌肉记忆的新闻对于那些脱离健身计划的人来说都是鼓舞人心的。)”符合,"All this news”指上文提到的“你恢复健康的速度取决于你最初的健康状况,以及停止活动的时间。你多大了,锻炼了多长时间","fell off the fitness scheme” 和下文 “your former level of fitness v相呼应,故选 Go【19题详解】 上文“The best way to regain your muscle memory is to start at a level below what you were accustomed to doing, and then gradually increase in terms of duration, frequency, then intensity恢复肌肉记忆的最好方法是从一个低于你习惯做的水平开始,然后逐渐增加持续时间、频率和强度。)”指出恢复肌肉记忆的最好方法是从低 于你习惯做的水平开始,然后逐渐增加持续时间、频率和强度这些要素,空处应该承接上文,继续谈论如 何恢复肌肉记忆,E 项 "It is generally safe to increase these elements by 5 percent every week or two.(通常情况下,每周或每两周将这些要素增加5%是安全的。)”符合,其中“these elements”代指上文“duration, frequency, then intensity故选 E。【20题详解】 上文 uUltimately, muscle memory is a payoff for all the past work you put into learning a sport.(归根结底, 肌肉 记忆是你过去为学习一项运动付出的所有努力的回报。)”指出肌肉记忆和你之前的付出的关系,肌肉记忆 是你过去学习的回报,空处应该承接上文,F 项“It is evident that the more you exercise, the more muscle memory savings you will have.(很明显,你锻炼得越多,你的肌肉记忆力就会储存得越多。)”符合,继续解释肌肉 记忆与你之前的锻炼的关系,故选F。第二部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题:每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。The most important life lesson I've learned from running is to run at my own pace.
