【语篇解读】 很多高中生为选择体育运动而大费脑筋，本文就如何在高中选择体育运动提出了一些建议。
16．D [上一句提到对一些人来说，上高中时选择体育运动很难，因为他们从来没有参加过有组织的运动，或不确定自己最喜欢什么。因此，D项(对其他人来说，那很难是因为他们的朋友不喜欢同样的运动)与上一句语意衔接，说明了高中生选择体育运动难的原因。]
17．E [上一段讲的是高中生选择运动难的原因，下一句提到如果你擅长篮球，却因为认为足球更有趣而想踢足球，那么就试一下足球。因此，E项(不管你的问题是什么，都要做对自己来说最好的决定)在此承上启下。]
18．F [上一句提到参加体育运动意味着寻找乐趣，下文提到最坏的事情不过是被裁掉，但你完全可以再尝试其他的运动。因此，F项(如果你真心喜欢一项运动却不确定能否加入这个队伍，那么也要努力一下)使上下文语意连贯。]
19．G [上一句提到一些像棒球和篮球的运动需要场上的队员密切配合，因此G项(确实，一些人比其他人表现得好得多，但是体育巨星不一定能组成一支优秀的队伍)承接上文，说明了配合的重要性。]
20．C [上一句提到在一些像网球、田径、游泳等的体育比赛中，个人得分会被分别记到队伍的总分里，因此C项(当然也有例外，如田径和游泳中的接力赛)承上启下。]
Ⅲ.完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)

【语篇解读】 著名的职业网球运动员Davenprt通过自己的亲身经历告诉我们：如果想了解体育运动带给你什么，你只需要参与到体育运动中来。同样的道理，生活得幸福或者充实并不需要你做得最好，重要的是要参与其中。
21．A．put nB．g n
C．turn nD．have n
B [根据前面的“Davenprt 15岁开始了人生中第一场职业网球比赛”和时间状语“在接下来的20年里”可判断出g n“继续进行”符合语境，表示“从1991年开始她进行了二十年的职业网球比赛”。]
22．A．wnB．praised

When we think abut the value f exercise，we tend t fcus n the physical benefits.But ver the past decade，scial scientists 36.________(discver) mre benefits f regular exercise: its impact 37.________ the way we think.Studies indicate that 38.________(put) regular exercise int yur rutine can imprve cncentratin，memry and help lwer stress.
There is als evidence 39.________(suggest) that exercise during regular wrk hurs may imprve perfrmance.Within the study，40.________(researcher) had ver 200 emplyees at a variety f cmpanies self­reprt their perfrmance n a daily basis.They fund that when emplyees visited the gym，their experience at wrk changed.They reprted managing their time mre 41.________(effective)，being mre prductive，and getting n well with their clleagues.
42．________，many f us can't take exercise regularly.The reasn is that we dn't have the time.But let's be clear — 43.________ we really mean when we say we dn't have time fr an activity is that we dn't cnsider it a pririty.Instead f viewing exercise as smething we d fr 44.________(we)，it's time we 45.________(start) cnsidering physical activities as part f the wrk itself.
【语篇解读】 体育锻炼不仅能强身健体，而且能让我们精力充沛，提高工作效率。
36．have discvered [考查时态、语态和主谓一致。时间状语“ver the past decade”表明该句应用现在完成时，且scial scientists与discver为主谓关系，故填have discvered。]
37．n [考查介词。名词impact与介词n连用，impact n...表示“对……的影响”。]
38．putting/t put [考查非谓语动词。 (put) regular exercise int yur rutine作主语，表示主动关系和抽象概念，故填putting/t put。]
39．suggesting [考查非谓语动词。动词suggest与evidence之间是主谓关系，非谓语表示被修饰对象长久的特征，因此用现在分词suggesting作后置定语。]
40．researchers [考查名词。此处缺主语，再依据下一句中的“They fund”可知，这里应用复数名词，指研究人员。]
41．effectively [考查副词。此处副词effectively位于动名词短语后作状语。]
42．Hwever [考查副词。根据下文中的“many f us can't take exercise regularly”可知前后文在内容上形成对比，且空后有逗号，故此处应用Hwever。]
43．what [考查主语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处所填词引导主语从句，在从句中作动词mean的宾语，起双重代词的作用，故用what。]
44．urselves [考查反身代词。此处意为“我们为自己做些事情”，主语与宾语指同一些人，故用反身代词urselves。]
45．started/shuld start [考查固定句式。在“It is time (that)...”句式中，that引导的从句的谓语用过去式或shuld d的形式。]

Craig watched his elder sister，Riley，and her friend Liz race up and dwn the lake n their skates，aviding ther hckey(曲棍球) players.Their skate blades lked like silver smke.When the game was ver，the girls skated up t the bench where Craig was sitting.Craig asked Riley what skating felt like.
“When I g really fast，I feel like I'm flying，”she said.
That's silly，thught Craig.Flying is smething birds d in the air，nt smething peple d n ice skates.
Then he watched Riley g back ut n the ice.She skated arund and arund the edge f the lake with her arms pumping and her scarf trailing behind her.Sn she went s fast that her arms lked like wings and her scarf lked like a feathery tail.Maybe skating really was like flying.
When Riley sat dwn t take her skates ff，Craig said，“I wish I culd fly.”
Riley retied her skate laces and cruched next t Craig.“Get n my back，” she said，and Craig did.Riley started skating，but Craig didn't feel like he was flying.It just felt like a shaking piggyback ride.
“Yu're t heavy，” Riley said.“I can't g fast when I'm carrying yu.” She skated slwly back t the bench.Craig gt ff her back.“Even if yu culd g fast，I wuldn't be flying.” he said sadly.“I need skates t fly.”
Riley didn't say anything n the walk hme，but a few days later she asked Craig if he wanted t g skating.
“T watch？” he asked.“N，t skate，” she said cheerfully.“Mm and I fund a pair f my ld skates.They might fit yu.” The skates were a little big，but when Riley stuffed newspaper in the tes，they fit.Craig culdn't stp smiling.He didn't want t take them ff，but he had t s he culd walk t the lake.Riley and Liz went with him.They carried their hckey sticks and a wden chair.Hardly had they gt t the lake when Craig put his skates back n and Riley helped him nt the ice.

After a while，each girl tk ne f Craig's hands.“Smeday yu'll fly n yur wn，” Riley said.“But tday Liz and I will help yu.” They started skating，pulling Craig with them.The girls went faster and faster，and s did he.Craig felt the wind tuching his face merrily with tears in his eyes.When he lked dwn，his skate blades lked like a silver light.“I'm flying！” he yelled，and the wrds blew away in the wind like a bird's happy sng.
