Group exercise is challenging, yet fun and empowering!Of course everyone knows that exercise is good for the body. However, studies have shown that when exercise is performed in groups, it’s not only great for improving physical health but for psychological health. It’s an opportunity to be social, release endorphins, and improve your strength. Additionally, group exercise creates a ‎ community feel and the shared common goal motivates participants to work hard. The instrumental support of taking on a fitness journey with others proves more effective than going to the gym alone. ‎ Another beneficial aspect of group exercise is the informational support participants receive from the instructor. Many people fear the gym because they feel lost and don’t want to embarrass themselves. If you feel you can relate, then group training is an even better option for you. It’s a great opportunity to learn more about fitness through the clear instruction and supervision of a fitness instructor. If you’re tired of wandering around the gym wasting time and becoming bored, you can attend an upbeat group fitness class that’ll keep your workout on track. Don’t let fitness frighten you!‎ If you’re serious about wanting to live a healthy lifestyle, it’s extremely important to surround yourself with people who’ll provide you with the proper emotional support. I wouldn’t scold anyone for deciding to party on weekends and in turn I wouldn’t expect anyone to give offence to me for focusing on my health. Surround yourself with people who uplift, encourage and understand you! Make fitness even more fun by trying something new or any group fitness class, with a friend. Plan to go for a jog together. Then try a fun healthy restaurant or fresh juice bar! Fitness can be both fun and social!‎ Surrounding yourself with people who’ll provide you with respect support can be very beneficial while working towards reaching health and fitness goals. First, decide to do it for yourself and work towards staying positive. Then make sure the people you surround yourself with are supportive. Don’t let negativity ruin your motivation. ‎ ‎21. The first paragraph focuses on .‎ A. the greatest challenge of group exercise B. the most effective way to improve physical fitness C. the contribution of group exercise to psychological health D. the shared common goal in performing exercise in groups ‎22. The underlined word “upbeat” in he second paragraph probably means “ .”‎ A. expensive B. average C. secretive D. cheerful ‎23. When it comes to emotional support, the author thinks it necessary .‎ A. to sustain a colorful lifestyle B. to surround yourself with supportive people C. to try a fun healthy restaurant regularly D. to party on weekends with positive people ‎24. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Building Up Fitness B. Seeking Support C. Improving Your Strength D. Supporting Health B In one study, college students who had important and reality-based conversations were more content than their peers who changed mere amusing remarks. But don’t deny small talks just yet. ‎ Psychologists have long said that connecting with others is important to well-being, but just how much conversation we require is under investigation. In one study, researchers overheard(偷听) undergraduates for four days, and then cataloged each overheard conversation as either “small talks” (“What do you have done? Popcorn? Yummy!”) or “substantive” (实质性的交流)(“So did they get divorced soon after?”). They found that the second type was related to happiness—the happiest students had roughly twice as many substantive talks as the unhappiest ones. Small talks, meanwhile, made up only 10 percent of their conversation, versus almost 30 percent of their conversation among the least content students. ‎ But don’t deny small talks just yet. Scientists believe that small talks could promote bonding. Researchers found that a small talk maintains closeness with loved ones after studying ring-tailed lemurs’(环尾弧猴) call-and-response ‎ conversations, similar to human small talks. Sill, joking with strangers could brighten your morning. In a series of experiments, those bus-takers told to chat with are reported a more pleasant journey than those told to “enjoy your loneliness” or to do whatever they normally would. Small talks can also help us feel connected to our surroundings. People who smiled at, made eye contact with, and briefly spoke with their Starbucks baristas (咖啡师) reported a greater sense of belonging than those who rushed through the transaction. ‎ Of course, some of us are better than others at turning small talks into something bigger. All the differences come to what researchers call “a curious mindset”. ‎ So go ahead to talk and ask. Small talks needn’t be idle. And being curious about others’ business isn’t all bad. ‎ ‎25. According to the second paragraph, we can know that .‎ A. we can deny small talks because substantive talks are more important B. people who make more small talks are much happier than those making substantive talks C. the well-being is built largely due to the percentage of our substantive talks D. the least content students have twice the amount of small talks than those content students ‎26. The benefits of small talks are the following EXCEPT .‎ A. I can make the bonding between people much closer B. It can shorten the distance between strangers and make the journey pleasant C. It makes us feel connected with the surroundings D. You can get more free cups of coffee from Starbucks baristas ‎27. What’s the author’s attitude to small talks?‎ A. Supportive. ‎ B. Negative C. Sceptical. ‎ D. Neutral ‎28. The text mainly tells us that .‎ A. substantive talks are important in communication B. small talks are important in communication C. substantive talks make people happier than small talks D. small talks and substantive talks are equally important in life C Several animal species including gorillas in Rwanda and tigers in Bangladesh could risk dying out if the influence of climate change and extreme weather on their habitats is not stressed, a UN report showed on Sunday. ‎ Launched on the sidelines of global climate negotiations in Durban, the report by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization shows how higher temperatures, the rise in sea levels, deforestation and excessive land use have damaged the habitats of certain species, especially in Africa. ‎ ‎“Many ecosystems have already been stressed by increasing population, historical and recent deforestation, unsustainable management practices and even invasive(外来的) species,” Eduardo Rojas-Briales, assistant director general at the FAO’s forestry department, said at the launch of the report. ‎ The most affected areas include mountains, isolated islands and coastal areas, which limit the possibilities for animals to migrate elsewhere and create new habitats. ‎ ‎“The remaining populations become enclosed in very small ecosystems, they have inbreeding(近亲交配) problem—and at the end these species may disappear. ”he added. ‎ Other examples of affected animals included elephants in Mali, lions in the Serengeti and crocodiles in Malawi. ‎ The report said an estimated 20-30 percent of plant and animal species will be at higher risk of extinction due to global warming and a significant proportion of local species may become extinct by 2050 as a consequence. ‎ Other consequences could include the spread of invasive species and infectious diseases, it said, ‎ The report urges more focus on restoration of damaged ecosystems, especially those keys to dealing with climate change such as mangroves, inland waters, forests,‎ ‎ savannahs and grasslands.‎ The FAO also called for the creation of migration corridors for animals in areas where their movements were limited. ‎ The organization said while more resources were flowing to biodiversity conservation, more action at the government and policy level was needed. ‎ It also urged local communities to develop projects that mitigate the impact of climate change on wildlife, naming eco-tourism activities as an example. ‎ ‎29. Why are mountains, isolated islands and coastal areas becoming the most affected areas, according to the passage?‎ A. Because it is less possible for animals to move to other places and create new habitats. ‎ B. Because of higher temperatures and the rise in sea levels there. ‎ C. Because of the spread of invasive species and infectious diseases. ‎ D. Because animals there are more likely to migrate to other places and create new habitats. ‎ ‎30. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in the last paragraph mean?‎ A. move. ‎ B. strengthen. ‎ C. improve. ‎ D. weaken. ‎ ‎31. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?‎ A. There are no resources available to conserve the biodiversity. ‎ B. It is better for the local communities to limit ecotourism activities. ‎ C. The government should take some measures and some policies should be made to protect the biodiversity though more resources were being used for it. ‎ D. It is the local communities rather than the government that should take measures to protect the species from extinction. ‎ ‎32. What is the best title for the passage?‎ A. Endangered Animals B. Animals at Risk due to Climate Change C. Global Warming and Its Consequences D. Solutions to Animal Extinction D The Nobel Prize Winners in Literature Rabindranath Tagore(1913)‎ Prize motivation:”because of his deep sensitive, fresh and beautiful poetry, with perfect skill, he has made his poetic thought, expressed in his own English words, a part of the literature of the West”. ‎ William Faulkner (1949)‎ Prize motivation: “for his powerful and artistically unique contribution to the modern American novel”.‎ Ernest Miller Hemingway(1954)‎ Prize motivation:”for his mastery of the art of narrative, most recently demonstrated in The Old Man and the Sea”. ‎ John Steinbeck (1962)‎ Prize motivation:“for his realistic and imaginative writings, combining as they do sympathetic humor and keen social perception”. ‎ Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill(1953)‎ Prize motivation:for his mastery of historical and biographical description as well as for brilliant speech skills in defending noble human values”. Claude Simon (I 985)‎ Prize motivation: “who in his novel combines the poet’s and the painter’s creativeness with a deepened awareness of time in the description of the human condition”. ‎ Mo Yan (2012)‎ Prize motivation:”he, with dreamlike realism, combines folk tales, history and the contemporary”. Bob Dylan (2016)‎ Prize motivation: “for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition”.‎ ‎33.

Whose works will you turn to if you are interested in a song writing Nobel Prize winner?‎ A. Mo Yan’s. ‎ B. Claude Simon’s. ‎ C. Bob Dylan’s. ‎ D. Rabindranath Tagore’s. ‎ ‎35.

It evokes (唤起) emotion without any thought. 36 We are all familiar with it, but do you know the following facts?‎ Silver will save your life. When buying a new car and finding yourself facing various choices, you can’t think clearly. :Your best choice is to go with silver. Silver-colored cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident. 37 Another reason is the silver color’s ability to have a look of cleanliness. ‎ ‎38 Tough prisoners and crazy patients? It is the color commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control. So it surely has a useful place and purpose, other than decorating a dress or a Barbie’s dream house. ‎ Yellow makes you hungry. Yellow and orange are not recommended for use in kitchens, ‎ as they have a positive influence on your appetite. 39 I’m not normally one for conspiracy(阴谋)theories—but perhaps there’s something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow’s effects. ‎ Color is an imaginary friend. Technically, it’s all in our heads: color docs not exist at all. 40 So, if you start a heated debate over color combinations with someone that you are certain has a low IQ or is just color-blind, remember it’s a pointless argument and you should drop it instantly. You’re both wrong. ‎ A. Blue is the most common favorite color. ‎ B. They are most noticeable on the road and in low light. ‎ C. Yellow-colored walls never leave us wanting more food. ‎ D. Then where would our restaurant owners be without the clever tricks?‎ E. Color tries to make sense of the huge amount of information from the outer world. ‎ F. Pink comforts the nerves. ‎ G. It can be the focus of our careers, our lifestyle and the fun we have. ‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（百强校英语解析团队专供）(共两节，满分45分)‎ 第一节 完形填空(共20 小题; 每题1. 5分，满分30分)‎ 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的四个选项中选出可以填在空白处的最佳选项。‎ In the early spring of 1974, the now world-famous photographer Stephen Wilkes was a 16-year-old reporter and cameraman for his high school’s television station. H is best friend was also a reporter for the 41, and together they came up with the wild idea of 42 some of the great news broadcasters and journalists of the age. So they wrote personalized, hand-written letters to dozens of them. ‎ Nobody 43 but perhaps the greatest news broadcaster and journalist of them all:Walter Cronkite, who generously offered to spend a full 44 with the boys.
