【考点精炼四】2022高考英语七选五终极押题
01 如何为冬季运动做好热身准备
If you have watched the amazing Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, chances are that you have fallen in love with some winter sports and you’re already making sure your equipment is ready for them. 36 However, there’s another element to get ready for the slopes (坡)—your body. Even if you exercise regularly, skiing, snowshoeing or skating challenges your muscles in ways other activities don’t.
37 Your metabolism (新陈代谢) increases to warm you up. Your heart and lungs also need to work harder to warm air before it enters your body. Depending on the sport certain muscles may also be used more frequently compared to activities in other seasons. The good news is that most winter sports involve heart endurance (耐力), muscle strength and muscle endurance. 38
But there are still some other things to think about. Skiing and snowboarding are great winter sports that provide a total body workout. 39 As anyone who has spent time skiing or snowboarding can prove, after a long day on the slopes, the body becomes extremely tired. ____20____ To avoid this, you need to take some time to strengthen your body and improve endurance. Before the winter season, a regular exercise program should include exercises that get the blood running while challenging the entire body, such as stair climbing or running. The intensity should vary from 20—45 minutes at least 3 to 5 days a week. As winter nears, adding a cardio (有氧的) workout longer in duration but lower in intensity can help increase endurance.
A. Maybe you haven’t bought all the equipment.
B. And that is when injuries are more likely to occur.
C. Exercising in the cold decreases your body temperature.
D. You should take advantage of this opportunity to have a rest.
E. Probably, you have got your skis tuned and skates sharpened.
F. All of them are areas that can be trained before the winter season.
G. However, it can be hard on the body the first time you hit the slopes.
【答案】16. E17. C18. F19. G20. B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了如何为冬季运动做好热身准备。
【16题详解】
E项“Probably, you have got your skis tuned and skates sharpened.(也许，你的滑雪板已经调好了，冰鞋也磨快了)”与上文“If you have watched the amazing Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, chances are that you have fallen in love with some winter sports and you’re already making sure your equipment is ready for them.(如果你观看了令人惊叹的北京2022年冬奥会，很可能你爱上了一些冬季运动，并且你已经开始确保你的装备准备好了)”中的“making sure your equipment is ready”呼应。故选E。
【17题详解】
根据后文“Your metabolism (新陈代谢) increases to warm you up. Your heart and lungs also need to work harder to warm air before it enters your body.(你的新陈代谢增加使你暖和起来。在空气进入身体之前，你的心脏和肺也需要更加努力地加热空气)”可知，这两句话承接了C项“Exercising in the cold decreases your body temperature.(在寒冷中锻炼会降低你的体温)”，因为有前文的“decreases your body temperature”，才会有后文的“warm you up”。故选C。
【18题详解】
F项“All of them are areas that can be trained before the winter season.(所有这些都是冬季训练可以训练的部位)”中的主语“All of them”指代上文“The good news is that most winter sports involve heart endurance (耐力), muscle strength and muscle endurance.(好消息是，大多数冬季运动都涉及心脏耐力、肌肉力量和肌肉耐力)”中提到的“heart endurance (耐力), muscle strength and muscle endurance”。故选F。
【19题详解】
G项“However, it can be hard on the body the first time you hit the slopes.(然而，当你第一次踏上斜坡时，身体可能吃不消)”中的“it can be hard on the body”与后文“As anyone who has spent time skiing or snowboarding can prove, after a long day on the slopes, the body becomes extremely tired.(任何花时间滑雪或单板滑雪的人都可以证明，在斜坡上度过漫长的一天之后，身体会变得非常疲惫)”中“the body becomes extremely tired”呼应。故选G。
【20题详解】
B项“And that is when injuries are more likely to occur.(而那是更容易受伤的时候)”中的that指前文“As anyone who has spent time skiing or snowboarding can prove, after a long day on the slopes, the body becomes extremely tired.(任何花时间滑雪或单板滑雪的人都可以证明，在斜坡上度过漫长的一天之后，身体会变得非常疲惫)”中的“the body becomes extremely tired”，后文“To avoid this(为了避免这种情况)”中的this指B项中injuries。故选B。
02 音乐助力锻炼背后的原因
Move to the Music
Music helps us exercise, but why does it have this effect? 36 The first is simple: Music distracts us. When we listen to a song we like, our brain pays attention to the music. For example, after we exercise for 20 minutes, our body might be tired. But we may not feel this immediately while listening to music. So we exercise a little longer.
Music also motivates us. When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat. An upbeat song also puts us in a good mood, so we feel happier. This gives us energy and helps us exercise longer. 37 Songs in the range of 120-140 beats per minute(BPM)are the best, says sports psychologist Dr. Costas Karageorghis.
38 . Its leading researcher Fritz put 61 people in small groups. They all then exercised twice. One time, each group worked out while listening to music for six minutes. Another time, they exercised for six minutes on special Jymmin machines. The name Jymmin is a combination of “jamming" and “gym.” Using these machines, each group made music as they moved. The exercisers became the composers and the machines became their instruments. In the end, 53 of the 61 people said the same thing: They felt less tired when they exercised on the Jymmin machines. 39
How does Fritz explain this? Maybe people did better on the Jymmin machines because they had more control, he says. People created the beat. They could make it go faster or slower. Also, the activity was social. Each group was making music together and having fun. Fritz believes that Jymmin exercise may have other advantages, too. 40 For example, it may be even a good way to treat depression.
A. Experts say there are two main reasons.
B. This also helps relax our body and brain.
C. Music with a quick and steady beat is good for exercising,
D. He wants to find out if it can help with more serious conditions.
E. He expects to take advantage of it to tap into people’s potential.
F. A new study suggests this is only part of the explanation, however.
G. When they exercise and make music, working out seems to be easier.
ACFGD
【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了音乐能帮助我们锻炼背后的原因及其运用。
36.空前“but why does it have this effect?(但是它为什么有这种效果呢)”提出问题，结合下一句“The first is simple(第一个很简单)”可知，A选项“Experts say there are two main reasons.(专家说有两个主要原因)”回答上一句的问题，且下一句的the first表示“第一种原因”，承上启下，符合语境。故选A项。
37.空处前文“When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat.(例如，当我们听到舞曲时，我们自然地开始随着节拍移动)”表示我们会跟随音乐节奏移动我们的身体；空后“Songs in the range of 120-140 beats per minute (BPM) are the best(每分钟120-140拍的歌曲是最好的)”说明了最适宜的节奏拍数；C选项“Music with a quick and steady beat is good for exercising.(节奏快而稳定的音乐对锻炼很有好处)”符合本段内容，且与下一句逻辑相符。故选C项。
38.根据文章第一、二段描述的两种原因并结合空处下文“Its leading researcher Fritz put 61 people in small groups. They all then exercised twice.(其首席研究员弗里茨将61人分成小组。然后他们都做了两次运动)”及实验内容可知，本段通过实验引出另外一个原因；F选项“A new study suggests this is only part of the explanation, however.(然而，一项新的研究表明，这只是部分原因)”承上启下，符合语境。故选F项。
39.本段描述了一种实验，空前一句“In the end, 53 of the 61 people said the same thing: They felt less tired when they exercised on the Jymmin machines.(最后，61人中有53人说了同样的话：在Jymmin机器上锻炼时，他们感觉不那么累了)”描述实验结果；G选项“When they exercise and make music, working out seems to be easier.(当他们锻炼并演奏音乐时，锻炼似乎更容易了)”与实验结果一致，符合语境。故选G项。
40.空前“Fritz believes that Jymmin exercise may have other advantages, too.(弗里茨认为，Jymmin运动可能还有其它好处)”可知，下文描述Jymmin运动的其余好处，空后“For example, it may be even a good way to treat depression.”表示，它可以应用于治疗抑郁症；D选项“He wants to find out if it can help with more serious conditions.(他想知道它是否对更严重的情况有帮助)”符合上下文语境，且more serious conditions与下文depression对应。故选D项。
