9、seem to agree that great things happen the minute we step outside of our comfort zone.

18、力打破纪录。1C 根据语境和常识可知,许多人把看体育赛事当作一种娱乐方式。2D 结合空后的“breaking boundaries”并结合常识可知,对运动员来说,体育赛事是他们挑战人类极限、打破界限的途径。3A 结合上文中的“Intensive training is a task which they do every day”可知,运动员们每天都要进行强化训练,这已经成了一项常规活动。4C 根据下文中的“what people believed was impossible”可 知,罗杰班尼斯特做到了人们认为不可能的事,这吸引了全世界的关注。5A 根据下文中的“what people be

19、lieved was impossible”可 知,人们认为4分钟内跑完1英里是不可能的。beyond imagination“超乎想象”。6D 根据下文中的“what people believed was impossible”可 知,人们认为4分钟内跑完1英里是不可能的,因此罗杰班尼斯特的成绩是一个很大的突破。7B 根据语境可知,越来越多的运动员已突破了“4分钟1英里”这一关口。barrier“难以逾越的数量（或水平、数目）,关口”。8D 此处表示现在的记录是1999年7月7日摩洛哥选手Hicham El Guerrouj 创造的3分43.13秒,stand“达特定水平”符合语境。9A

20、根据空后一句中的“new records”并结合常识可知,在跑步和其他领域,纪录都是以越来越低的速度更新的。10C 根据下文中的“The decimal point（小数点）,set at one tenth of a second.one-hundredth of a second”可知 选C。11B 根据语境可知,班尼斯特的纪录是以小数点后一位计算的,现在是以小数点后两位计算的。12B 根据下文中的“well have to go to athird decimal2,lace,and then a fourth”可知,现在是以小数点后两位计算的,不久之后会是后三位,然后是后四位。13C

21、根据下文中的“the best performances of human beings”和常识可知,运动员越接近完美,越难取得进步。14D根据常识可知,即使杰出的运动员接近了人类的最好表现,他们仍然可以缩短现有纪录的秒数。15A参见上题解析。shaveoff“（微量地）减少,缩小”。16B 结合常识可知,杰出的运动员要打破纪录也绝非易事。struggle“奋斗,努力”。17D 根据语境和常识可知,新旧纪录之间的差距会逐渐缩小。18B 根据常识可知,运动员越来越接近自己的生理极限。peak“最好（高）的,巅峰状态的”符合语境。19C 根据语境和常识可知,既然越来越接近极限了,取得进步会越来越难

22、。20A 根据常识可知,优秀的运动员从来不会停止努力（突破极限、打破纪录）。B【语篇解读】本文是说明文。本文主要讲到了走出舒适区会让我们取得一些意想不到的成就。作者以自己追求梦想的经历为例,并结合其他方面告诉我们要走出舒适区、做出改变,这会有助于我们实现自己的梦想。1C 根据上文中讲到的“Many evolution coaches seem to agree that great things happen the minute we step outside of our comfort zone”可知,成长和舒适（comfort）无法共存。2A 无论我们的头脑能相信什么,它都可以成功,不

23、管我们过去失败过多少次,抑或我们的目标或希望有多宏大。inconsideration of sth“作为的报酬”不符合语境。3D 参见上题解析。4B 根据空后的“because it reminds usWell go”可知,这一说法是有影响力的（powerful）。consistent“一致的”；plain“简单的,朴素的,平凡的”；challenging“有挑战性的”。5D根据语境和常识可知,我们是唯一能够为我们能走多远负责的人。6C 根据语境可知,此处表示“为了实现任一目标。”7A 根据常识和下文中的“real changes”可知,为了实现任一目标,我们通常被要求改变之前的做事方式。8

24、B根据语境可知,走出舒适区可能是我们体会真正改变最重要的一步。9A 根据语境和下文中的“as its extremely easy to slide back into oldwithout realizing it”并结合常识可知，无意识地往后退回旧习惯很容易，因此坚持和继续向前同样重要。10C 参见上题解析。11C 根据上文中的“halfway through my Bachelors degree”可知，作者攻读学士学位攻读了一半，因此还需要在线学习两年来完成（complete）学业。12D 根据语境可知，作者长久以来一直想要在阿根延生活，因此买单程票飞往阿根延、在线完成学业是实现作者目标必要的步骤。13B 参见上题解析。14A 结合语境可知，作者以自己的经历为例是为了说明一个人为了实现目标，需要走出舒适区，并不是建议每个人都买单程票飞往国外，然后只是看看会发生什么。15A 结合语境可知，认识到我们想要什么并尽力实现我们的梦想是非常重要的。16D 参见上题解析。17C 结合语境可知，生活在舒适区会骗我们，让我们认为我们的时间充足。18B 根据语境和常识以及上题解析可知，我们不会总有明天去做我们今天可以做的事情。19.A根据语境可知，接受不舒适，允许它促使你去尝试新事物。20D 结合语境可知，待在舒适区，保持自我满足，你永远也不知道自己会错过什么。9学科网（北京）股份有限公司
