Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?

We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.”____36____ According to recent studies，the answer is a big YES，if the air quality in your camping area is good.

___37___ If the air you’re breathing is clean-which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities-then the air is filled with life-giving，energizing oxygen. If you exercise out of doors，your body will learn to breathe more deeply，allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles(肌肉)and your brain.

Recently，people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing(治愈). _____38_____ In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green，growing things can reduce stress，lower blood pressure，and put people into a better mood(情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients Who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. ______39______ It gives us a great feeling of peace. ___40___While the sun's rays can age and harm our skin, they also give is beneficial Vitamin D. To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin— put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that's plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day's worth of Vitamin D.

A. Fresh air cleans our lungs. B. So what are you waiting for? C. Being in nature refreshes us.

D. Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.

E. But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said? F. Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care.

G. All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新鲜空气的好处：新鲜空气中的氧气，阳光对人们的身心健康均有好处。人们已经开始利用大自然和治愈疾病的关系，建造“康复花园”，治疗病人了。 36.E

根据下一句中的“the answer is a big YES”可知，该空应该是一个一般疑问句，选项中只有E选项是一般疑问句。故选E：但是新鲜空气真得像你母亲说的那样对你有好处吗？空前的people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air”和选项中的“your mother always said”亦是呼应。 37.A

根据下一句中提到的“If the air you’re breathing is clean…the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen”可知，新鲜空气充满赋予人生命的，充满活力的氧气。下文中“…breathe more deeply, allowing more oxygen to get to your muscles and your brain”是对前文的递进：在户外，更多的氧气进入你的肌肉和大脑。根据前面的分析可以推知，该空应该提到新鲜空气的基本作用，根据常识，我们知道吸入的空气首先进入的是肺部，然后才会使我们的肌肉和大脑受益，故该空应选A选项：新鲜空气清洁我们的肺部。 38.G

根据下一句中提到的“these places”可以推知，该空应该提到表示地点的复数名词。选项中只these places有G选项提到该类名词，故选项G：在全国，康复中心已经开始建造“康复花园”。就是指Healing Gardens。 39.C

前文介绍的是“康复花园”中的绿色植物对于病人康复的好的作用：绿色的正在成长的植物可以减轻压力，降低血压，使人情绪良好。空后提到“它给我们一种平和感”。该空起承上启下的作用，仍然要提到处于“康复花园”这种自然环境中的好处，空后的it也要指代这种情况。故C选项切题：身处大自然可以使人精神焕发。 40.D

根据下文中提到的“the sun’s rays…give us beneficial Vitamin D”可知，该段介绍的阳光的好处。故该选项应该提到阳光。选项中只有D选项涉及阳光。故选D：获得新鲜空气的另一个好处是阳光。

【命题意图】

阅读理解七选五要求从短文后的七个选项中（均为完整的句子）选出五个能填入文章空处的最佳选项，主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。其命题形式深受英语四六级和考研阅读多项选择题的影响，体现了《新课标》＂用英语获取、处理和运用信息的能力；逐步获取用英语思维的能力。＂的阅读学习和教学理念。该题型命题形式仍然具有客观题的特点，又与完形填空具有异曲同工之妙，只是选项少，以句子形式出现，考查目的和侧重点不完全相同而已。

从《考试说明》对该题型命题目的的表述＂主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。＂可以得出以下判断：该题备选项可分为主旨概括句（文章整体内容）、过渡性句子（文章结构）和注释性句子（上下文逻辑意义）三类。其多余的两个干扰项也往往从这三方面进行设置，例如主旨概括句或过于宽泛或以偏概全或偏离主题，过渡性句子不能反映文章的行文结构，注释性句子与上文脱节等。

文章体裁以说明文为主，语篇模式较为固定：提出问题——提供解决方案。文章题材较为固定：与学生的日常生活学习紧密相关。

【考试方向】

分析篇章结构，把握全篇文脉是阅读填空题解题的关键，英语的语篇（discourse）通常是由句子和语段（sentence group）构成的，语段是句子和语篇之间的中间层次，句子虽然能够单独地表达相对完整的思想，但是它不能表达多方面的、比较复杂的思想，只有把几个句子结合为较大的言语片段，才能表达一个相对独立的层意，所谓的＂积句而成章，积章而成篇。＂就是这个道理。

分析文章的层次包含两种形式：一种是分析整篇文章的层次，也就是段落，另一种是分析每一个段落内部的层次，也就是语篇层次。

语篇与段落是有区别的，语段是篇章结构的中间层次，是由句子到篇的一种过渡形式，段落（paragraph）是在某些语体（如记叙文、议论文）中比语段更大的意义单位，较小的段落可以只包括一个语段或一个句子，一般来说，一个段落通常由几个语段构成。构成语段的方式有两种，一是靠句际间意义的结合，二是靠句际间的关联词，逻辑性插入语来连接，在分析语段层次时，可以借助句际间的连接词语作出判断，但最主要的还是要真正体会句际间的意义关系，把握作者的思路，从语序上去发现断续点，理清层次，好文章的层次非常清晰，只有层层入手，才能真正理解文章。

【得分要点】

（1）在阅读过程中，重要要关注文章的首段与末段。尤其是文章的这两段的末尾句，因为＂开门见山＂与＂末尾点题＂的写作方式是最为常见的，首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在，说明本文将探讨哪些内容，并简要指出文章的写作思路，有时甚至会以提纲的形式进行呈现。首段的末句对于快速掌握文章的主题具有重要意义，如果它是文章的主题句，就可以使读者迅速明确文章情节将如何展开，并对文章的写作主题有了整体的了解。如果末句不是主题句，则需要继续寻找。这时，可以考虑文章的写作方式是否为＂结尾总结＂式，如两者均可排除，

则需在文章中其他段落寻找主题句，但要注意首段与末段的提示作用。

（2）做题的时候边读边做。各个问题附近的句子都需要重点阅读，圈画一些线索粗，再从选项中寻找相关的特征词用来判断正确答案。带入排除法也是一种很好的方法。另外，如果发现有一题拿不准的，先跳过，先做容易的能做出的题，直到读完整篇文章。至此，文章的要点和主旨、各个段落之间的逻辑关系应该基本就能清楚了。然后再回过去做之前不确定的题目。

（3）做完后，通读全文。将所选项放入空白处，通读一遍，看看是否与上下文构成语义及逻辑上的直接关系，是否符合该处语境。能否承接前后的写作线索。使文章无论内容还是衔接上都能做到通顺。若代入选项后，发现文章写作线索中断或是前后矛盾，应更换其它选项。同时，我们还应注意对相近选项的对比分析，个别干扰项由于与某个正确选项的内容相近具有很强的干扰性，这时就需要我们认真分析，仔细甄别，排除干扰，从而得出正确选项。 （4）切勿随意改答案。要特别注意的是，不要仓促的改自己的之前选定的答案。做这类的题目时，第一印象的可信度还是很高的，除非你已经常有充分的理由否定向前的选择。

Rising through stages to realize ourselves

Many modern people have the problem that they don’t know who they are and what their purpose is. 1Once high school seniors graduate, they seem to lose their identity. They once studied hard. But after they stop working, they begin to lose their way.

In the theory of the Hierarchy of Needs（需求理论）, Abraham Maslo, put forward a similar situation, which consists of the five levels of a person’s need. The fifth and final level is self-realization, which is where our final achievement lies. 2 I think self- realization has three major aspects. The first stage is acceptance, the second stage is discovery and the last stage is perseverance.

Acceptance is the first stage. We should be reminded that we are all born unique, so we all have our own strengths and weaknesses. Only when we understand these, can we pursue them or change them. 3 Once we’ve accepted ourselves, we can discover what we are interested in and what we want to be. 4but indeed we should live for ourselves. So before we start working towards a purpose, we should ask ourselves “Is this what we truly desire?” and “Is this going to change the situation we’re in?”

The last stage is perseverance.5 Those who can self-realize are people who focus on the things they want to change.

Through the three stages, we could gain recognition of ourselves. And by this point, whatever our lives were like, we would be able to stand tall, confident of ourselves.

A.It’s nothing to a man of perseverance

B.Only by acceptance of the past can we change it C.This is especially common among college students D.Many people tend to go along with social expectations E. Being objective and yet tolerant is the key to acceptance F. It is the process of knowing ourselves and finding a purpose G. Exploring our potential isn’t going to be done in a short time 【语篇解读】本文属于说明文，介绍要实现自我的三个方面。

1.C

根据后一句Once high school seniors graduate, they seem to lose their identity.可知，一旦高年级学生毕业，他们就似乎丧失了自我，C选项，这种情况在大学生中很常见，下文是对本句的具体阐述，切题，故选C。 2.F

根据前一句The fifth and final level is self-realization, which is where our final achievement lies.可知，根据马斯洛的理论，第五阶段也是最后阶段是自我实现，这就是我们最终成就的地方。F选项，这是一个了解我们自己，寻找目标的过程，是对上一句的具体阐述，切题，故选F。 3.E

根据前一句Only when we understand these, can we pursue them or change them.可知，只有当我们理解了这些，我们才能去追求他们或者改变他们。E选项，客观和包容是接受的关键，阐述接受的关键地方，切题，故选E。 4.D

根据前一句Once we’ve accepted ourselves, we can discover what we are interested in and what we want to be.以及后一句but indeed we should live for ourselves可知，只有接受了我们自己，才能发现自己感兴趣的东西，D选项，很多人跟着社会的要求行动，与后文，的确我们应该为自己生活，但是不一定都是自己真正想要的，连贯一致，切题，故选D。 5.G

根据后一句Those who can self-realize are people who focus on the things they want to change.可知，能够实现自我的人都是那些能够集中精力在自己想要改变的事情上，G选项，探索自己的潜能不是短时间就能完成的，故强调坚持的重要性，切题，故选G。

How to Set Goals

Whether you have small dreams or high expectations,setting goals allows you to plan how you want to move through life.Some achievements can take a lifetime to attain,while others can be completed in a day. 1

●Determine your life goals.Ask yourself some important questions about what you want for your life.What do you want to achieve: today,in a year,in your lifetime?The answers to this question can be as general as \"I want to be happy,\"or \"I want to help people.\" 2 ●Set specific goals.Be specific and realistic about what it is that you want to achieve.Research shows that setting a specific goal makes you more likely to achieve it. 3 For example,\"Be healthier\"is too big and vague to be a helpful goal.\"I want to eat more vegetables,and I want to run a marathon.\"is better.

●Write out your goals.Be detailed,be clear,and include your steps. 4 Keep your list in a place where you can get informed frequently.This will help keep you motivated.

● 5 You may find yourself set in your ways concerning broad life goals,but take the time to re-evaluate your smaller goals.Are you accomplishing them according to your timeline?Are they still necessary to keep you on track towards your larger life goals?Allow yourself the flexibility to make some small changes to your goal.

A.Adjust your goals.

B.Track and measure your progress. C.Having deadlines will keep you motivated.

D.Consider what you hope to achieve in 10,15,or 20 years. E.Here are some important ideas that you may find helpful. F.Writing them down tends to make them feel a little more real. G.Remember that you may need to break large goals into smaller goals.

【语篇解读】一些成绩可以用一辈子去实现，而其他人可以用一天完成。本文主要

从四个方面介绍了如何设定目标：确定你的人生目标、设定具体的目标、把你的目标写下来、调整你的目标。

1.E 第一段是总领部分，下面分成了四点分别详细说明，起总领作用的只有E. Here are some

important ideas that you may find helpful.这里有一些重要的想法，你会觉得很有帮助。故选E。

2.D Determine your life goals. Ask yourself some important questions about what you want for

your life.确定你的人生目标。D. Consider what 问自己一些重要的问题：你想要什么？。you hope to achieve inl0, 15, or 20 years.想想你未来的10年、15年、20年想要达到什么。与本段开头相一致，故选D。

3.G For example, “Be healthier” is too big and vague to be a helpful goal. “I want to eat more

vegetables, and I want to run a marathon.” is better.比如，“保持健康”是个太大、太模糊而没效的目标。“我要吃更多的蔬菜，跑马拉松”会更好。保持健康是个大的目标，吃

更多的蔬菜、跑马拉松是小目标。G. Remember that you may need to break large goals into smaller goals.记住，你可能需要把大的目标分成更小的目标。正好与之相符，故选G。

4.F 由下文Keep your list in a place where you can get informed frequently.可知：把清单放在

一个你能经常被提醒的地方，所以上文肯定也提到了清单。只有F. Writing them down tends to make them feel a little more real.把它们写下来往往会让它们感觉更真实一点。，故选F。

5.A 由下文Are they still necessary to keep you on track towards your larger life goals? Allow

yourself the flexibility to make some small changes to your goal.可知要灵活调整、改变你的目标，与A. Adjust your goals.调整你的目标相符。故选A。

Competition is all around us and it makes the strong stronger and the weak weaker. It can also teach us how to survive in a fast-paced and stressful world.1 . How many of us have seen young boys weeping because their teams didn’t win inter-school tournament? How many of us have seen young teenagers cheat just to win? 2 So it’s important to develop healthy competition among children.

When it comes to encouraging healthy competition among children, the first thing to do is set goals for them to stick to.3

Since children may be easily affected by wrong ideas from popular media and the Internet, it’s up to you to develop the right kind of spirit in them. Team spirit will help them grow into human beings who aren’t easily annoyed by small losses or too excited by victories.4 So give them examples where family members refused to cheat to win.

5 . When they take an exam, don’t ask about how much they expect to score; instead, ask what they wrote about. If your son played a cricket match at school, don’t ask him whether his team won or lost; ask him how many runs he scored and encourage him to score higher next time instead. When you let your children know that you’re more interested in how they performed rather than whether they lost or won, they will surely try to better themselves.

A.However, you mustn’t push them too hard and burden them with too high a goal B.We should also encourage healthy competition among children

C.These are the effects of unhealthy competition

D.In addition, they may also not want to adopt just any method to win, like cheating or lying E. Care more about children’s performance rather than the results in a sports match F. However, children can be hit by competition

G. Sending your children the right signals is also important

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何培养孩子之间的健康竞争。 1.F

根据下文提到的两个问题：我们中有多少人见过年轻的男孩因为他们的球队没有赢得校际比赛而哭泣？我们中有多少人见过青少年为了赢而作弊？这两个问题是两个例子，证明竞争会让人受到打击。故F选项切题。 2.C

前面提到的两个问题折射出不健康竞争产生的影响。故C选项切题。同时，该选项又引出下文：所以培养孩子之间的健康竞争是很重要的。 3.A

上一句提到：当它来鼓励孩子们的健康竞争时，要做的第一件事就是设定他们的目标。该空承接上文，对设定目标这件事作进一步的说明。故A选项切题：然而，你不能把他们逼得太紧，让目标成为他们的负担。 4.D

下文提到：所以给他们举个家人为了赢而拒绝作弊的例子。根据下文中的so可知，该空和下文之间是因果关系。那么，该空应该提到作弊这样的话题。选项中只有D选项与此有关：此外，他们也可能不想采取任何手段来取胜，比如欺骗或撒谎。该空同时承接上文：团队精神将帮助他们成长为一个人，他们不会轻易被小损失所困扰，也不会因胜利而过于兴奋。该选项也体现了团队精神的作用。综上，D选项切题。 5.G

该段提到：当他们参加考试时，不要问他们期望多少分数，而是问问他们写了些什么。如果你的儿子在学校打板球，不要问他的球队是赢还是输；问他进了多少分，鼓励他下一次得分更高。当你让你的孩子知道你对他们的表现更感兴趣，而不是他们是输了还是赢了，他们肯定会努力让自己更好。通过该段内容可知，作者建议家长给孩子传递正确的信息：你关心的是他们的表现，而不是成绩。故G选项正确。
