Tai chi， a traditinal， slw-mving frm f Chinese martial art， is knwn t increase flexibility and imprve balance. Nw， new research suggests it’s better than mre energetic aerbic exercises (有氧运动) fr lwering bld pressure in peple with prehypertensin (高血压前期). Prehypertensin is cnsidered a warning sign that heart disease may be ahead， and it raises the risk f having a heart attack.
The new findings， published in the jurnal JAMA Netwrk Open， add t a large bdy f research pinting t health benefits frm tai chi.
In the study， researchers in China randmly assigned 342 adults with prehypertensin t ne f tw interventins. The average age f participants was 49. Rughly half the peple participated in aerbic exercises， including jgging， climbing stairs， brisk walking and cycling. The ther half was trained t practice tai chi. Bth grups gt hur-lng sessins fur times a week.
After 12 mnths thse in the tai chi grup saw bigger drps in their bld pressure than thse in the aerbic exercise grup. What’s mre， nearly 22% f the peple wh practiced tai chi saw their bld pressure fall t within nrmal range， cmpared with nearly 16% f peple in the aerbic exercise grup. And fewer patients in the tai chi grup went n t develp hypertensin than in the aerbic exercise grup.
Hw des tai chi help lwer bld pressure? The practice tends t cause mre f a respnse frm the parasympathetic nervus system (副交感神经系统)， says Ruth Taylr-Piliae， a prfessr at the University f Arizna’s Cllege f Nursing， wh was nt invlved in the study. The parasympathetic nervus system is the netwrk f nerves that relaxes yur bdy after perids f stress r danger.
“I think the beauty f tai chi is that yu dn’t have t have a special gym membership r special clthing，” Taylr-Piliae says. “Once yu learn tai chi， yu can d it anytime， anyplace， anywhere. And it des kind f prvide that calming， relaxing effect.”

C. By making cmparisns.D. By presenting different pinins.
14．What is Taylr-Piliae’s attitude twards ding tai chi?

二、七选五
16．In Stressful Times， Make Stress Wrk fr Yu
These are stressful times. Frtunately we can actually use that stress t imprve ur health and well-being. Over a decade f research suggests that it’s nt the type r amunt f stress that determines its impact. ①
Step 1： Acknwledge Yur Stress
Labeling yur stress cnsciusly and deliberately mves neural activity frm the amygdala — the center f emtin and fear — t the prefrntal crtex， which is respnsible fr executive cntrl and planning. In ther wrds， when we take a mment t acknwledge ur stress， it mves us frm perating frm a fearful， reactive place t a psitin where we can be thughtful and deliberate. ②
Step 2： Own Yur Stress
The next step is t welcme， r “wn” yur stress. We nly stress abut things that we care abut. ③ Try cmpleting this sentence abut whatever was specifically stressing yu ut in step ne： “I’m stressed abut…because I deeply care abut…”
Step 3： Use Yur Stress
Cnnecting t the cre values behind yur stress sets yu up fr the third and mst essential step： using r leveraging stress t achieve yur gals and cnnect mre deeply with the things that matter mst.
Ask yurself： Are yur typical respnses in alignment with the values behind yur stress? ④
There’s s much happening right nw that we can’t cntrl. ⑤ Sme psychlgists argue that true transfrmative change can ccur nly during stress r crises. The trick is t channel yur crnavirus stress as energy t make the mst f this time.
A. Think abut hw yu might change yur respnse t this stress t better facilitate yur gals and yur purpse.
B. Yu can release stress frm the past and mre with emtinal fcus techniques.
C. By wning ur stress， we cnnect t the psitive mtivatin r persnal value behind ur stress.
D. But — as many peple are nticing — there are als unprecedented pprtunities amid the fear.
E. Instead， it’s ur mind-set abut stress that matters mst.
F. But later， we will be able t ask urselves hw we each respnded t this crisis.
G. This step is als an pprtunity t understand what’s at the heart f yur persnal stress r anxiety.
三、完形填空（15空）
It wasn’t easy t practice gratitude (感激) every day. After I 1 Cushing’s disease (库兴综合征) and had an peratin a few years ag， my 2 was that everything wuld be OK. Hwever， I was wrng. I had nging aches and pains， and 3 myself t a new life was difficult fr me. 4 ， I began t ntice that I’d becme a hateful persn.
One day， I heard a discussin abut gratitude by Dr Tny Evans. It 5 me and frced me t take a lng， hard， hnest lk at myself. I have a(n) 6 spuse (配偶) and parents. I’d heard the stries f ther peple’s 7 with Cushing’s disease. Their spuses had left them and they didn’t have family t 8 . I didn’t face any f these prblems， yet I didn’t realize that.
I made a decisin t start practicing gratitude daily. Once I decided that， my 9 imprved， and I began t apprach situatins differently. 10 viewing situatins negatively， I started t see them as pprtunities.
This led me t practice the cncept f 11 and reaping (收获)， which I learned frm my parents. They didn’t just talk the talk， but rather they 12 his cncept t us. Hwever， it wasn't until I had my wn experiences that I understd what it meant.
Let me explain. When I was 13 in my wn pity， my 14 in life was ruined， because everything I was swing was negative. Since I started practicing gratitude， s many different drs f pprtunity have pened up fr me.
My advice is starting practicing gratitude until it becmes a part f yur daily rutine. Take nte f the 15 it will make in yur life.

2．答案：B
解析：细节理解题。由The Sky Rad中“It's nly 10 miles lng， but allw at least 2.5 hurs s yu can explre sme f the tp sights in the area. There's an upper and lwer rad that yu can take， with the upper rad ffering the best views.(它只有10英里长，但至少需要2.5个小时，所以你可以探索该地区的一些顶级景点。你可以走上下两条路，上一条路的景色最好。)”可知，the Sky Rad有两条路可以走。故选B项。
3．答案：C
解析：推理判断题。由文章最后一段If yu’ve gt any further questins abut this Ireland bucket list then just leave a cmment belw. Fr thse wh’ve already visited， what is yur favrite place r experience in this incredible cuntry? (如果你对爱尔兰的愿望清单还有任何疑问，请在下面留言。对于那些已经去过的人来说，在这个令人难以置信的国家，你最喜欢的地方或经历是什么?””可推断，这篇文章应来自旅游网站。故选C项。
4．答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的“Smene able-bdied had dne it previusly. I wanted t see if I culd d it n a prsthetic leg and see what wuld happen，” she said. ('以前有健全的人这样做过。我想看看我能否在义肢上做到这一点，看看会发生什么。’她说。)”可知，先前曾有体格健全的人连续跑马拉松，Hunt-Brersma想看看自己戴着假肢能不能连续跑马拉松；由此可知，Hunt-Brersma 决定跑马拉松是为了挑战自我。
5．答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Runners using a prsthetic leg can’t use a regular ne. They need a running blade (刀锋式跑步义肢). Hunt-Brersma has tw， but she was nly able t run with ne because f the swelling she experienced in her left leg that made it impssible t cnnect t the ther blade. But even with the pain that ccurred， she has been able t put up with it and cntinued. (使用假肢的跑步者不能使用普通的假肢。他们需要一个刀锋式跑步义肢。Hunt-Brersma 两个刀锋式跑步义肢，但她只能用其中一个，因为她左腿肿胀，无法连接到另一把刀。但即使发生了痛苦，她也能够忍受并继续下去。)”可知，Hunt-Brersma 路马拉松时要忍受左腿肿胀带来的不适和痛苦。
6．答案：D
解析：推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第三段中的“But even with the pain that ccurred， she has been able t put up with it and cntinued. (但即使发生了痛苦，她也能够忍受并继续下去。)”和最后一段中的“It has taught me hw strng ne can be and hw imprtant abslute determinatin is. If yu’re mentally strng， yu can d anything，” she said. “And ur bdies are just amazing ... This whle jurney was impressive and super hard， but it’s tld me hw strng I can be as a persn and hw far I can push myself."(“它教会了我一个人可以有多坚强，以及绝对的决心有多重要。如果你内心强大，你可以做任何事情，’她说："我们的身体真是太棒了…整个旅程令人印象深刻，也非常艰难，但它告诉我，作为一个人，我可以有多强大，我可以把自己逼到多远。’)”可知，Hunt-Brersma克服身体的不适并坚持跑完了马拉松，虽然过程很艰难，但 Hunt-Brersm明白了一个人可以有多强大，坚定的决心有多重要以及她自己究竟可以走多远。由此可知，作者通过Hunt-Brersma 的故事告诉读者只要有坚定意志与决心，就没有不可能的事情，面对艰难困苦，只要我们迎难而上，坚持不懈，就能取得成功。
7．答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中“Mst peple wh ran the marathn last mnth spent days befre resting up and days after recvering. But nt Jacky Hunt-Brersma. In ttal， she ran 104 marathns in 104 days. If it’s cnfirmed by Guinness Wrld Recrds， that wuld be a new wrld recrd. And she did it all with ne leg and a prsthesis (假肢).(上个月跑马拉松的大多数人在赛前休息和赛后恢复上都花了几天时间。但 Jacky Hunt-Brersma不是。她总共在104天内跑了104场马拉松。如果吉尼斯世界纪录证实，这将是一项新的世界纪录。她用一条和一个假肢完成了这一切。)”可知：Hunt-Brersma在104天内跑了104场马拉松，赛前没有休息，赛后也没有时间恢复；再结合第二段提到的她勇于挑战自己、第三段提到的她努力克服身体的不适以及最后段她的感悟可知，作者对Hunt-Brersma的态度是钦佩赞赏的。
8．答案：B
解析：词句猜测题。由文章第一段中“causing lng-lasting physical damage.(造成长期的身体损伤。)”可知，这种对大象身体的持续压力会使它们背部的骨骼受损。A.Relax.放松；B.Wrsen.恶化；C.Balance.使(在某物上)保持平衡；D.Strengthen.加强。故选B。
9．答案：D
解析：细节理解题。由文章第二段中“Pai Lin was abandned(遗弃)by her previus wner， wh felt that she was t slw and always in pain and culdn't wrk well anymre.(白琳被她的前主人抛弃了，他觉得她太慢了，总是很痛苦，不能再好好工作了。)”可知，白琳的前任主人把她抛弃是因为它不能再胜任它的工作了。故选D。
10．答案：D
解析：推理判断题。由文章第三段“Elephant rides are a ppular turist activity in cuntries acrss Sutheast Asia but activists say the practice is a frm f animal abuse (虐待) as their bdies are nt designed t be ridden. They say the animals are als ften abused and explited in ther industries like lng marching and lgging， with many dying frm exhaustin and hunger as they are really frced t wrk until death. (在东南亚各国，骑大象是一种受欢迎的frm exhaustin and hut旅游活动，但积极分子表示，这种做法是虐待动物的一种形式，因为大象的身体不是用来骑的。他们说，这些动物在其他行业也经常受到虐待和剥削，比如长征和伐木，许多动物死于疲惫和饥饿，因为它们真的被迫工作到死。)”可知，积极分子认为大象遭到了人们的虐待。由此推知，他们认为应该更好地对待大象故选 D。
11．答案：C
