3 . Many of us make it our New Year decision to get more active—but you don’t have to spend a fortune in gyms.     1     But by switching that plan for these following ideas, you can increase your activity and bank balance.

Run it. Going for a jog costs nothing and is one of the easiest ways to build up your body. If running seems like a task, why not try an app to add to pleasure? I love RockMyRun. It understands your personal pace and then matches your music’s beat to it.     2    

Follow fitness influencers. Instagram is full of fitness influencers competing for likes and followers. They often post free short videos showing how they are done.     3     It will save your fees for guidance from a personal trainer, which costs on average £ 30 to 65 an hour.

Weight to go.     4     You can use them to increase your resistance training—zero gym required. Tins   of beans or tomatoes can be used as smaller weights, while 2 litre drink bottles offer heavier resistance.

    5     It may be slightly cold, but there are hundreds of nonprofit community outdoor gyms across the country. With everything from cross-trainers to leg presses, they cater for various training workouts. Find your nearest outdoor gym at tgogc. com.

A．Free outdoor gyms.

B．Great various workouts.

C．It is free to download on Android and iOS.

D．Generally, gyms cost on average £ 40. 53 a month.

E．Heavy kitchen items can be used as hand weightlifting equipment.

F．It is necessary for most people to invest in some hand-held weights.

G．Make the most of their efforts by repeating these at home, or in the gym.

A world champion has retired because he has decided humans cannot beat       1         (computer) at his game.

The grand champion is Lee Se-Dol from South Korea,     2       was a world champion at the ancient, strategy board game Go. Some people compare Go to chess. Mr. Lee is    3    only person in the world to ever beat Google’s AlphaCo which is a special AI computer program    4     (create) by Google to play Go. Mr. Lee, an 18-time world champion, said, “With the first appearance of Al in Go games, I’ve realized that I’m not at the top even if I become the number one.”

The game Go came in China around 3,000 years ago. Today, it is played    5    (main) in China, Japan and South Korea. It is believed to be the       6     (old) board game in the world. Mr. Lee started playing     7     the age of five. He     8     (turn) professional seven years later, when he was 12. He played five games against Google’s AlphaCo and lost four of them. He said his one victory was because of a “bug” in the program. The bug did not know what     9    (do) when Mr. Lee made a “tricky” move. Today’s Go programs are much more     10     (power) than the one that beat Mr. Lee.

7 . It was the day before the Bolder (a 10­kilometer race) when I decided to take an easy run on the beautiful path by my home. At fifty­three，I'm trying to accept that slowing down is just a part of life. As I rounded the corner and started up one of the many familiar hills，a pretty girl was jogging toward me.    1    “Hi，Mom，” she said breathlessly.

My children have watched my husband and me go running most mornings of their lives. It was so predictable that when my daughter was six years old，I commented，“You know honey， not all parents go running every morning.” “    2    ” she asked.

My only daughter is my youngest child. I always thought how happy I'd be if my children started running. But my daughter never seemed to like it too much when I came in sweaty from a run and was tired. “    3    ” My sons ran the Bolder Boulder once, but after that their running shoes were left to gather dust.    4    

But meeting my daughter on the path that morning was a beautiful example of what parenting about.     5    Of course, as a psychologist I always advise my clients that good parenting should be all about modeling. We now have five pairs of running shoes, since my sons both have also recently found their way to the path. So no matter how fast I am this Memorial Day, I've already felt the joy of winning. Besides, I am reminded that doing what you love will bring a medal for the whole family.

A．Really Mommy, like who？

B．You smell unpleasant, Mom！

C．Running is beneficial to our health.

D．You are really my role model, Mom!

E．It's really so much more about what we do versus what we say.

F．Nevertheless, I kept running and racing while my children did not.

G．It was one of the nicest meetings I have had on the path in over thirty years.

8 . 阅读下面材料， 在空白处填写 l 个适当的单词或用括号内单词的正确形式。

On a quiet morning, about 70 people were practicing the ancient art of tai chi, outside of the library in Salt Lake City, Utah. They are not    1     well-trained   group of exercisers,   but rather a class of participants who are    2    (most) homeless. The class focuses    3     (little) on mastering the exercise and more on    4    (build) a community. People have said the class relieves their stress, encourages them to get into a routine and make new friends.

Bernie   and Marita Hart, a    5    (retire) couple, began to run the free program   three years ago. They started it by approaching   homeless people    6     were pushing grocery carts near the Salt Lake City Public Library and inviting them to try    7     Hart said her   favorite part of the program has been watching the friendships among participants. They love seeing the positive impact the class    8    (have) on people's lives.

When the Harts are out of town, tai chi does not stop. Attendees take turns teaching the classes.

"Homeless people    9    (tell) what to do every place they go, but we want to encourage them   to   be    10    (leader)," Bernie   Hart   said. "They   don't   need   sympathy,   they   need something that works."

9 . Olympic host cities are generally considered to be equipped with advanced technology and expensive facilities. Now, people can just go there for a little Olympic-level entertainment.

Athens, Greece (1896 and 2004)

Home to the first modern Olympic games in 1896, Athens' history of the Olympic tradition dates back several thousand years. Every four years, the Olympic torch is lit at the Panathenaic Stadium in Athens before beginning its long journey to the new host city. Visitors can walk through the Olympic Velodrome in the Olympic Sports Complex and step back in time at the 50,000-seat stadium.

Barcelona, Spain(1992)

These days Barcelona is among the world's most visitable cities even without Olympic fame, but that isn't always the case. The telecommunications tower built for the games by Spanish architect Calatrava is also an iconic(图像的） device of the city's skyline, and its Olympics stadium- Montjuic Stadium is regularly used to host A-list musical performances like The Rolling Stones, Madonna, and Beyonce.

St Moritz, Switzerland(1924 and 1948)

Appropriately, the town that invented Alpine tourism has hosted the Winter Olympics twice, and continues to make use of its many sports facilities-if you can afford to get there. Stay at the Kulm Hotel for the easiest access to the Kulm Country Club, where guests can skate on the same lake used by mid-century Olympians, or test your courage on the Olympia Bob Run, one of the few places where you can ride a full-speed Olympic bobsled(双人雪橇） on a run constructed entirely of ice.

Sydney, Australia (2000)

The turn-of-the-century Sydney Summer Olympics were named the "Green Games" by the International Olympic Committee (10C) and were designed to introduce a more environmentally conscious way of hosting the event. The structure that best shows Sydney's efforts to be an example of continuing Olympic development is the ANZ Stadium.

1. Where does the host city get the Olympic torch lit?

A．At the Panathenaic Stadium.

B．At the Olympic Sports Complex.

C．At the Montjuic Stadium.

D．At the ANZ Stadium.

2. Who will probably choose to visit St.Moritz?

A．Those fond of ice-sports.

B．Those fond of listening to opera.

C．Those interested in popular music.

D．Those interested in Olympic history.

3. What's special about Sydney Olympic Games?

A．Their designers are from Spain.

B．They are thought poorly of by the IOC.

C．They are hosted in an environmentally friendly way.

D．Their design intention is proposed by Sydney authority.

10 . Here’s the list of skiers, who have won four consecutive (连续的) world championships: Nobody.

Well, nobody besides Mikaela Shiffrin, who did it last Saturday in Are, Sweden. The Colorado skier, still just 23, is the best story, really, of this sports winter in the slalom (障碍滑雪).

She pulled it off, despite an illness that challenged her breathing. Shiffrin told NBC after her win that her mother, Eileen, advised her before her second run: You don’t have to do this. But Shiffrin told herself what she had told herself many times before: “I just need 60 seconds.” So she did it, and she got it. Shiffrin is closing in on her third World Cup overall title. She’s ranked No. 1 on the planet in slalom.

In women’s skiing, the mountain is now Shiffrin’s. She’s earned it. Those two (and soon three) World Cup overalls; 56 World Cup individual victories; and, oh yeah, right, three Olympic medals, two of them gold. Shiffrin is already considered a serious threat to Ingemar Stenmark’s record of 86 World Cup victories, and Lindsey Vonn’s 82, though the 34-year-old surely would have collected more had she not suffered repeated injuries during her career. Of course, Shiffrin may wind up chasing someone else’s mark—Austria’s brilliant Marcel Hirscher, 29, now has 68 World Cup wins.

At the same time, Shiffrin loathes all the talk about the numbers and records. “People see the records and statistics. They are asking for more, more, more…it looks easy, but it isn’t. Nowhere close,” Shiffrin wrote. “What I see is training, sleepless nights, pain, doubt, delayed lights, canceled flights, lost luggage, expense, adventure, and some races mixed in there.”

That’s what happens when you’re as good as she is. But nobody’s been as good as she is. In a sense, Shiffrin is just getting started. It’s very possible she will be at her peak powers when the Winter Olympics arrive in Beijing in 2022.

1. What do we know about Mikaela Shiffrin in her recent slalom race?

A．She was not in her best physical condition.

B．She pulled out of the race in the second run.

C．She followed her mother’s advice and succeeded.

D．She told herself a one-minute story before the race.

2. Whose record of World Cup victories is Mikaela Shiffrin getting close to?

A．Eileen Shiffrin’s.	B．Ingemar Stenmark’s.
C．Lindsey Vonn’s.	D．Marcel Hirscher’s.

3. Which of the following best explains “loathes” underlined in paragraph 5?

A．Summarizes.

B．Gives away.

C．Dislikes.

D．Focuses on.

4. What is the best title for the text?

A．Shiffrin Is Moving Mountains	B．Shiffrin Is At Her Peak
C．The Rise And Fall Of A Colorado Skier	D．The Most Popular Winter Sports
