8、t run less hard. Dont run less often. Dont run less distance. And dont be persuaded by under powered medical studies a habit that really could harm your health.I say this in response to a recent study suggesting that too much strenuous jogging shortens your life. The conclusions, published in the Jo

9、urnal of the American College of Cardiology, have received wide attention this week.Lets start by taking a closer look at what the study actually says. The researchers asked Danish runners about the speed, frequency and A. They do business with local people.B. They volunteer in medical centers.C. Th

How do people in London celebrate the New Year?A. By setting off fireworks.B. By singing Christmas songs.C. By watching the parade on TV.20. What i

12、s the purpose of this speech?A. To introduce the best shopping district in London.B. To encourage people to buy the Christmas trees.C. To attract people to visit London in December.- 8 -duration of their workouts, categorizing 878 of them as light, moderate or strenuous joggers. Ten years later, the

13、 researchers checked government records to see how many of them had died.Happily, only 17 had. While this was good news for the surviving runners, it was bad news for the researchers, because 17 was clearly too few deaths to discern whether the risk of death was related to running intensity. Nonethe

14、less, the study claimed that too much jogging was associated with a higher mortality rate. It is based on 40 people who were categorized as “strenuous joggers” among whom only two died. As Alex Hutchinson of Runners World wrote, “Thank goodness a third person didnt die, or public health authorities

15、would be banning jogging.” Moreover, the researchers do not even report whether those two deaths were from causes that could plausibly be related to running.Indeed, none of the comparisons between those who run a lot versus a little, frequently versus infrequently, or fast versus slow, were statisti

16、cally significant, even after adjusting for potential factors like age, gender, education, diabetes, smoking and drinking.The researchers acknowledge this lack of significance, but confounded the issue by pointing to a different question. Instead of focusing on the differences between light, moderat

17、e and heavy joggers, they ask instead whether each group of runners had a lower death rate than an altogether different group, a separate sample of 413 non-runners. There is even less to these findings than meets the eye, as the researchers did not compare runners with non-runners.Just as important,

18、 other evidence suggests that running, like other forms of exercise, benefits health. There may be an amount of running so great as to damage health, but, if so, its probably far greater than four hours per week. Mr. Hutchinson, a physicist-turned-writer, has concluded, “Running an hour a day is cer

19、tainly no less healthy, and probably a bit healthier, than running less.” Armed with that more accurate assessment of - 9 -the science, I hope to see you on the running trails.21. What is the structure of this passage?a. organize opposite findings and confirm the ideab. put forward the authors sugge

20、sting ideac. gather facts to analyze the experimentd. reveal the result of the recent medical studyA. b d c a B. b a c d C. d c b a D. d b c a22. According to the passage, the following can prove the recent study unconvincing EXCEPT_?A. The study didnt explain the exact cause of two deaths among str

21、enuous joggers.B. The American College of Cardiology isnt the authority in medical study.C. There are no comparisons for controlled factors and potential factors.D. The study excluded the differences between runners and non-runners.23. What does the author really try to express?A. People are easy to

22、 believe what they want to hear.B. Mortality rate was highest among those running most.C. People should get a sense of what we are learning.D. Running is a habit good for peoples health.BWhat is great art? On the one hand, we can all see that great art is old art which is called great. But how do we

23、 know which art of our own times is great, and which will be forgotten? And who decides? These are important questions, for the great art of the past often was - 10 -not considered great during its own time. When Shakespeare and Charles Dickens were writing, for example, most critics considered them

24、 as hack (平庸的) writers with little or no literary ability. Similarly, Van Gogh and many of the other Impressionist painters of the late nineteenth century were not allowed to participate in events involving what were thought to be the “real“ painters of the time, and often they were very poor. Yet t

25、oday their paintings often sell for millions of dollars, while those so-called “real“ painters are now barely remembered.So what makes great art? Can, for example, rock music be great art? Music videos? Cartoons and comics? Those who call themselves critics of the fine arts often have been the last

26、to recognize great art in the past, and we can probably expect this to be the situation today. Critics often dont recognize great art because they tend to be prejudiced against what is popular. Popular works, whether they are novels, movies, or comics, are usually considered to be produced for the s

27、ake of money only, and not for the sake of art. But popularity, it seems to me, is one of the three signs that a present-day work of art may come to be thought of as great. The other two are that it is groundbreaking, and that it is inherently (内在的) beautiful.Many works have one or even two of these

28、 qualities of being popular, unusual, and beautiful. But having all the three often will mean that a work of art will someday be seen to be great, though it may take a good spoonful of time, such as a century or two, to know for sure. 24. The author used the first paragraph to_.A. arouse readers cur

29、iosity and serve as a leadingB. introduce some real painters to the readersC. raise the questions the writer wants to answerD. explain what kind of art will become popular- 11 -CSix months before she died, my grandmother moved into an old peoples home She was sitting in the living room with about 15

30、 other residents, mostly women, half of them asleep. The room was clean and warm, with flowers and pictures, and the care assistants were kind and cheerful. A general knowledge quiz show was on the television and the only other sounds were snoring and embarrassing digestive noises. People moved only

31、 when they needed to be helped to the bathroom. Gran talked a lot about how much she missed seeing her grandchildren, but I knew from my sister that they hated going to visit her there and, to be perfectly honest I couldnt wait to get away myself.Nowadays there is less and less contact between the o

32、ld and the young in an increasing number of countries. There are many reasons for this, including the breakdown of the extended family, working parents with no time to care for ageing relations, families that have moved away, and smaller flats with no 25. The author used the examples of Shakespeare,

33、 Charles Dickens and Van Gogh to show_.A. these masters works have some shortcomings and meritsB. these masters wouldnt have been so successful without the criticsC. truly beautiful works of art are never understood when first createdD. great masters are often not acknowledged while they were alive2

34、6. According to the passage, great works _.A. may be presented in different formsB. are usually thought highly of by criticsC. are thought valuable because of their sale priceD. will become valueless if theyre not accepted- 12 -room for grandparents. But the result is the same-increasing numbers of

35、children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children. And more old people who are lonely and feel useless, along with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support. its a major problem in many societies.Thats why intergenerational programmes,

36、designed to bring the old and the young together, are growing in popularity all over the world, supported by UNESCO and other local and international organizations. There are examples of successful initiatives all over the world. Using young people to teach IT skills to older people is one obvious e

37、xample. Using old people as volunteer assistants in schools is another, perhaps reading with children who need extra attention. There are schemes that involve older people visiting families who are children for a while to give the tired mother a break. Or adopt a grandparent schemes in which childre

38、n write letters or visit a lonely old person in their area. There are even holiday companies that specialize in holidays for children and grandparents together.One successful scheme in London pairs young volunteers with old people who are losing their sight. The young people help with practical thin

39、gs such as writing letters, reading bank statements and helping with shopping, and the older people can pass on their knowledge and experience to their young visitors. For example, a retired judge may be paired with a teenager who wants to study law. Lasting friendships often develop.- 13 -But it is

40、nt only the individuals concerned who gain from intergenerational activities. The advantages to society are enormous too. If older people can understand and accept the youth of the today, and vice versa, there will be less conflict in a community. In a world where the number of old people is increas

41、ing, we need as much understanding and tolerance as possible. Modern Western society has isolated people into age groups and now we need to rediscover what community really means. And we can use the strengths of one generation to help another. Then perhaps getting old wont be such a depressing prosp

42、ect after all.27. What was wrong with the home that the writers grandma was in?A. The old people werent be looked after properly. B. Children werent allowed to visit often.C. The surroundings were difficult to tolerate.D. The residents there had no stimulation.28. What is considered as a major probl

43、em in present societies?A. The breakdown of the extended family.B. The old had little contact with their children.C. Old people suffered great loneliness.D. Increasing conflicts in a community.29. Which of the following can best describe the writers attitude towards “intergenerational programmes”?A.

44、 Depressed B. HopelessC. Supportive D. Neutral30. What the best title for the passage?A. Less contact between generationsB. Build bridges between generationsC. Successful schemes to help the old- 14 -D. Reasons for isolation of the old第 2 节（共 5 个小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项

45、是多余选项。The Internet is great, but theres really something to be said for having face-to-face connections with people who can help motivate and inspire you.If your own network is looking a bit lackluster, never fear. The start of a new year is the perfect time to invest in building your tribe. Here ar

46、e a few of the techniques thatve helped me meet friends, business partners, influencers, mentors and more.1. Never eat aloneI was in San Francisco back when Keith Ferrazzis Never Eat Alone book came out, and I took its message to heart, arranging to eat meals with anyone whod agree to meet me. Doing

47、 so had a huge impact on my career. 31 . I also got over any lingering fears I had about making conversation with people I didnt know.2. 32 As far as specific networking tactics go, theres not much more I can tell you than to go out there, meet people and build relationships. It really is about bein

48、g all action, not all talk.However, I do see people making a lot of different mistakes in the actual execution of their networkingand thats what I want to touch on here. Heres an example: you get up the courage to go to a local networking event and actually talk to a few people. You have some great

49、conversations, but after the event is over, you do nothing. Guess what kind of relationship is going to come from that encounter? You got itnothing.3. Keep the consistency of contactingOne contact does not make a network. Nobody will get to know you and trust you if you only meet once. 33 . Even simple touches, such as forwarding an - 15 -interesting email or sharing a social post, can build a relationship.4. 34 Theres a place for broad networking, but you also need to inve
