bring our bikes to school and the school provides us with the opportunity to ride outside and learn proper bike safety sounds like fun right no in fact it caused me to panic what was i going to say when my friends asked me about my training wheels with the pressure of everyone seeing my training wheels i determined to let them go this was the first big change i d ever made on my own i went to my parents and told them all about my dilemma they were more than happy to help we went outside and got my bike instead of running away and hiding behind i stood in front of my bike and took great pride in my decision as my dad removed the training wheels i got on and steadied myself my heart raced but my feet and hands were calm my dad started to push before my feet even moved and suddenly i was off the fear faded away and a relaxed mind came into its place it was crazy to think how quickly i learned something that took so long for me to even try my confidence soared this was going to be the start of a brand new world for me my accomplishment would carry me forth to new goals and wins i realized that if i set my mind to something i could achieve it 4 what does the school expect the students to do on bike safety day a have their bikes checked b ride outside for fun c acquire bike safety skills d remove the training wheels 5 how did the author feel when her father removed the training wheels a comfortable b anxiousc scaredd proud 6 the underlined word soared in the last paragraph probably means a increased quicklyb changed quickly c faded slowly d hid secretly 7 what does the author think is necessary for her to achieve a goal a patience b determination c pressure d concentration c c older women who walk a little over three kilometers each day might live longer than less active women of the same age a new study suggests many americans hoping to stay healthy set a daily goal of 10 000 steps or about eight kilometers they often have this goal because they are wearing electronic devices which set that target note researchers in the united states their findings appeared recently in the publication jama internal medicine but it is not clear how much intensity 强度 or speed matter when counting the health benefits of every step the researchers write they add that 10 000 steps per day might not be the right goal for everyone for the study researchers observed 17 000 women all in their early 70s they asked the women to wear accelerometers for at least four days accelerometers are small devices that measure the number of steps and the intensity of movement the researchers followed up with the women much later around 4 3 years later on average since the beginning of the study 3 504 women had died compared to women who took no more than 2 718 steps daily the women who took at least 4 363 steps per day were 41 percent less likely to die even a modest amount of steps is associated with lower death rates said i min lee the lead writer of a report on the study the rate of stepping did not matter in these older women it was the number of steps that mattered the study had a few limitations for example the researchers only measured women s movements once at the start of the study period it is possible that the women s behaviors changed over time still the results are good news for older adults who may have difficulty walking at faster paces said keith diaz a researcher at columbia university he was not involved in the study any walking is better than nothing diaz said by email with even small amounts of walking your risk of death will be sharply reduced for those who have difficulty walking other research shows that any form of aerobic activity provides health benefits he added swimming bicycling or any form of activity that is continuous in nature will provide health benefits 8 what conclusion can we come to from the text a people who walk about 10 000 steps can live longer b 10 000 steps per day might be the right goal for people c the more steps one walks per day the longer life he may live d the number of steps is important for a long life among older women 9 how is paragraph 4 mainly developed a by giving examples b by comparison c by listing statistics d by explaining reasons 10 what can be leaned from what diaz said a people who walk fast will get more health benefits b if people have a habit of walking the risk of death will be reduced c people with walking difficulty can not benefit from activities d activities such as swimming and bicycling are not as beneficial as walking 11 where is the text most likely from a a medical journal b a news report c a magazine about fashion d a traveler brochure d d a new app aims to help parents interpret what their baby wants based on the sound of their cry the free app chatterbaby which was released last month analyzes the acoustic 声学的 features of a baby s cry to help parents understand whether their child might be hungry fussy or in pain while critics say caregivers should not rely too much on their smart phone others say it s a helpful tool for new or tired parents ariana anderson a mother of four developed the app she originally designed the technology to help deaf parents better understand why their baby was upset but soon realized it could be a helpful tool for all new parents to build a database anderson and her team uploaded 2 000 audio samples of infant 婴儿 cries she used cries recorded during ear piercings and vaccinations to distinguish pain cries and to create a baseline for the other two categories a group of moms had to agree on whether the cry was either hungry or fussy 4 anderson s team continues to collect data and hopes to make the app more accurate by asking parents to get specific about what certain sounds mean pediatrician eric ball pointed out that evaluating cries can never be an exact science i think that all of the apps and technology that new parents are using now can be helpful but need to be taken seriously ball said i do worry that some parents will get stuck in big data and turn their parenting into basically a spreadsheet 电子表格 which i think will take away the love and caring that parents are supposed to be providing for the children but anderson said the aim of the app is to have parents interpret the results not to provide a yes or no answer the bells a couple using this app say it s a win win they believe they are not only helping their baby now but potentially others in the future 12 how does the app judge what babies want a by collecting data b by recording all the sounds c by analyzing the sound of their cries d by asking parents about specific messages 13 what was the app designed for in the beginning a all new parents b deaf parents c ariana anderson d crying babies 14 what is ball s opinion about the app a parents should use the app wisely b the app can create an accurate result c parents and babies are addicted to the app d the app makes babies lose love and caring 15 what is the text mainly about a parents should not rely too much on their smart phones b a new app helps parents figure out why their babies are crying c parents can deal with babies hunger with the help of a new app d a new app called chatterbaby can prevent babies from crying d birds are no longer enemies to airports 第二节 共 5 小题 每小题 2 分 满分 10 分 第二节 根据短文内容 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项
