A
I am a long distance runner. When I was thirty one, I was in a serious car accident. The doctor told me that they would try to get me to walk “normally” but I would never run again—terrible news for someone who views running as the oxygen she breathes. The doctors were right. For the next nine and a half years, I was unable to run more than twentyfive feet.
In 2006,I began selftraining to take part in a 60mile walk. Three months into preparing, I realized that walking 4-5 hours a day was too long. If only I could jog part of it—that would cost me less time. I started jogging without my knees aching. Slowly, I increased the distance. The doctors were proved wrong—it only took nine and a half years to do so.
While practicing, I suffered a loss—a dear friend suddenly died. His work had been to help women to accept themselves and reach their fullest potential. He believed that people should let nothing hold them back from achieving their goals. Soon after his death, a crazy thought entered my mind:what if I could run the LA Marathon?I knew that if I didn’t train to my fullest,the doctors would win. So I trained seven days a week. And I succeeded in crossing the finish lines of many marathons all over the United States to the astonishment of my doctors. They never believed I would achieve that.
The aches and pains I experience while training and racing are nothing compared to the suffering people whom I respect must accept.

Brazil is the greatest football nation in the world. There are about 200 million Brazilians. How many of them are football fans?Over 100 million! All of them think that they know all about football. This makes life very difficult for the Brazilian team managers. When things go bad for the Brazilian team, the newspapers would demand that the team manager should leave his job. “If we win,they put me in heaven,” a manager once said. “If we lose,they put me in hell(地狱).”
You can’t escape football in Brazil. There are football matches on every street and beach. On television, the results of football matches come before the main news programs. There are six television channels in Rio de Janeiro. On Sundays each channel shows a different football match.
Brazil is not the richest country in the world,but the government spends lots of money on football. It cost more than one billion pounds to prepare for the 1978 World Cup. That’s 10 pounds for every Brazilian man, woman, and child. And many Brazilians don’t earn as much as 10 pounds a week. Is it worth it?
“Brazil must have a great football team,” says one journalist. “If it costs one billion pounds, that’s all right. If the government doesn’t give us a good team, then it will become unpopular. Football is more than a game in Brazil.”
Football is more than a game in Brazil. This is certainly true in its largest city,Sao Paulo. The most popular team is Corinthians. Corinthians’ fans are the most loyal and emotional in Brazil. When Corinthians win, production in the Sao Paulo car factories increases by fifteen percent. When they lose, it drops. At one time Corinthians won the national championship for the first time. For four days fans danced and sang in the streets.
Why are people so loyal to one football team? What makes a football fan? One man says, “Without Corinthians my life would be sad. Corinthians brings some joy and excitement into my life. We all need that,don’t we?”
5.In Paragraph 1, what the manager said means________.
A.he is respected by newspapers
B.he will probably be killed by fans
C.he is judged on his team’s results
D.it’s difficult for him to get good scores
C 解析:细节理解题。从句子“如果我们赢了,就被他们捧上天堂;如果输了,就被打入地狱”可知,足球教练的荣辱与球队输赢息息相关。
6.All the following statements about the Brazilians and football are true EXCEPT________.
A.all the Brazilians know all about football
B.football has an influence on politics in Brazil
C.the Brazilians spend a lot of money on football
D.Corinthians’ fans are always supporting their team

7.People are loyal to their football team mainly because ________.
A.it brings joy and excitement to their life
B.they could always count on it
C.it can increase the car production
D.they could see hope in it

【解题导语】 散步是最健康最省钱的运动,但是散步也有一些学问,尤其是对于那些不能坚持长久的人,本文会对他们有所启发。
1.willingness 解析:考查名词。空格前有定冠词the,需填名词,故填willingness。
2.by 解析:考查介词。increase之后用介词by引出“增加”的幅度,故填by。
3.comfortably 解析:考查副词。此处需要用副词作状语,修饰动词breathe,故填comfortably。
4.an 解析:考查冠词。a couple of几个。extra是元音读音开头的词,因此不定冠词应用an,故填an。
5.where 解析:考查定语从句引导词。stage表示抽象概念“阶段”,在其后定语从句中作地点状语,故填where。
6.going 解析:考查非谓语动词。feel like doing sth.“想要做某事”,故填going。
7.to explain 解析:考查非谓语动词。此处为固定句型It+is+adj.+to do sth.,故填to explain。
8.is 解析:考查主谓一致。动名词短语walking with others作主语,谓语动词用单数,故填is。防止受others的就近干扰而误填are。
9.shows 解析:考查时态。本文时态是一般现在时,此处应该用一般现在时表示客观事实,主语evidence为单数第三人称,故填shows。
10.tired 解析:考查形容词。所填词与busy一起,都强调人的状况,表示“疲劳的”,故填tired。
