44. the author is most probably a (n) _________.     a. disabled man         b. doctor    c. coach                d. athlete45. what do we learn from the passage?    a. water can provide nutrients for us to improve skin tone.    b. extreme sports have little to do with normal people.    c. one can enjoy recreation and the pleasure of life by doing extreme games.    d. we can have more energy to do things in our everyday life if we strengthen our physical well-being.答案：作者在觀看殘疾運動員的表演后，充分認識到運動對人的好處。當然，運動并不一定為了成為有競爭力的運動員，但它可以強身健體，降低疾病的發生率。除了運動外，健康的生活方式也需要良好的飲食習慣。41. b。   寫作目的題。根據最后一段“so let’s all get out there and do some exercise!”可知，作者的寫作目的是號召大家運動起來，因此選b項。42. d。   猜測詞義題。根據后面的“...which is confirmed by scientists.”可知，每日八杯水的作用已經被科學家證實了，因此選d項。43. b。   細節理解題。根據第二段第二句“experts recommend that spending as little as 30 minutes each day on physical activities provides benefits including lower risk of heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes and other serious diseases.”可知，a、c和d三項都是在描述運動的好處，而根據文章第三段最后一句可知b選項說的是水的作用，因此不正確。44. a。   推理判斷題。從第一段的“we disabled can — and should be — as active as anyone else.”可以判斷作者自己也是個殘疾人。45. d。   細節理解題。根據文章倒數第二段“fitness results in completing the tasks of daily living, working a full day, and still having energy to participate in recreational activities.”可知，有了健康的體魄就會有更充足的精力來工作和休閑。4.讀寫任務     閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文；   no one tells us how to lead failure experience to growth. we forget that failure is part of life and that every person has the right to fail.   most parents work hard at either preventing failure or protecting their children from it. one way is to lower standards. a mother describes her child's hurriedly-made table as "perfect" even though it couldn't stand on uneven legs. another way is to shift blame. if john fails the exam, his teacher is unfair or stupid.   the trouble with failure-prevention methods is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. the young need to learn that no one can be best at everything; no one can win all the time; it's possible to enjoy a game even when you don't win. a child who's not invited to a birthday party or enrolled in the baseball team feels terrible, of course. but parents should not offer a quick comfort prize or say, "it doesn't matter" because it does. the young should experience disappointment and master it.
