阅读强化训练(二)(建议用时：25分钟) 阅读理解From a young age，I would climb up and down for fun.My first introduction to gymnastics(体操) was through my older sister Arielle，who used to be a gymnast.She taught me how to do my first cartwheel(侧手翻)By the end of the week，I was teaching myself onearmed cartwheels and my sister said to my mom，“You need to put this kid in gymnastics.”At about age 9，I realized that I wanted to pursue the Olympic path.I was used to the public eye，but the Olympic stage was different.The Games teach you to act in a certain way and to be disciplined(守纪律的)They teach you to be a mature young lady，and you grow up fast.When I started this journey，I never knew what it actually took to get to the Olympics.I thought it was：training.I had to give up a normal kind of life for gymnastics，but I didnt mind.I moved from Virginia Beach to Iowa to get a different coach.I sacrificed my privacy.Gymnastics was what I was going to eat，breathe and sleep.It takes a lot to be an Olympic athlete.You may have a talent，but the people who work harder than you will surpass(超过) you.Throughout my career，a lot of people have doubted me.When someone tells you that you cant do it，especially when there are many people，you start to believe it.It took me years to figure out how great I was at gymnastics.Fear held me back when I hurt my leg in 2011，but I told myself that I had a talent and that I was going to use it.I went to the world championships and got a team gold. I won three gold medals at the 2012 and 2016 Olympic Games and helped Team US.A. win gold at the 2011 and 2015 world championships.My mom used to say，“Inspire a generation.”Its one thing when you say it，but I never thought that I would be a pioneer and that people would draw inspiration from my story.【解题导语】本文讲述了作者走上体操道路的过程以及通过拼搏获得成功的励志故事。1Why did the authors sister suggest putting her in gymnastics?AShe was talented in gymnastics.BShe needed to decide her future career.CShe was too noisy to stay at home.DShe had fallen in love with gymnastics.A解析：推理判断题。根据第一段By the end of the week，I was teaching myself onearmed cartwheels.可知，作者学习体操动作很快，显示了天赋，因此姐姐建议母亲让她从事体操运动。2We can learn from Paragraph 3 that the author_Aleft school at an early ageBdevoted great efforts to trainingCthought talent was necessaryDdreamed of being famous one day.B解析：细节理解题。根据第三段I had to give up a normal kind.eat，breathe and sleep.可知，作者在训练中投入了极大的努力。3What did the author learn from others doubt?AFailures were unavoidable.BShe had to improve her skills.CShe should be confident in herself.DWhat others thought was not important.C解析：细节理解题。根据第四段It took me years to figure out how great I was at gymnastics.I was going to use it.可知，面对别人的质疑，作者选择相信自己，认识到了自信的重要性。4What does the author mainly talk about in this passage?AHer childhood experience.BHer road to success.CHer passion for the Olympics.DHer performance in gymnastics.B解析：主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了作者从走上体操道路到获得成功的历程。 完形填空In 2016，60yearold Marshall Reeves got on his bike in California.He began the Race Across America，a 3，000mile_1_that runs from coast to coast.The _2_was to reach Maryland in two weeks，which had_3_him twice.But for his third_4_，Reeves had a new source of_5_：He was racing with 3，000 Miles to a Cure，which raises money for brain cancer research.“The Race Across America is similar to our fight against cancer.Its_6_easy，but the only way to really fail is to_7_，”Reeves said.The race is one of the most_8_events in the country.Only about half the competitors are able to finish.The race is continuousonce the clock starts in California，it doesnt_9_until Maryland.Racers are typically_10_by a small crew in cars.Its a(n)_11_game.So sometimes the crew would have to_12_him and say the cutoff(截止时间)was in two hours_13_it would actually be in six，things like that to get him_14_In the early days of the race，when Reeves had_15_to stop at a hotel，he would get a good nights sleep.But after three days，_16_was a luxury(奢侈品) as he biked for more than 20 hours a day.After crossing the two points where his_17_attempts had ended，Reeves entered_18_areas.With just 25 miles left，Reeves struggled to stay_19_，taking quick naps(打盹)in the van.At last，he_20_the finishing line in 12 days，13 hours，and 52 minutes.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Marshall Reeves曾经三次参加横跨美国的自行车赛，前两次他失利了，但第三次他成功了。1A.directionBlevelCjourneyDrecordC解析：由本空前He began the Race Across America，a 3，000mile可知，横跨美国的自行车赛是一次三千英里的旅程。2A.goalBrangeCpotentialDadventureA解析：to reach Maryland in two weeks即为比赛的目标。3A.attractedBdefeatedCwavedDremindedB解析：由最后一段After crossing the two points where his_attempts had ended可知，Reeves以前参加过两次比赛，均以失败告终。4A.placeBplanCdecisionDattemptD解析：由上下文可知，这是他的第三次尝试。5A.adviceBlifeCmotivationDfinanceC解析：由He was racing with 3，000 Miles to a Cure，which raises money for brain cancer research.可知，此次他参赛的目的是为脑癌研究筹集资金，这是他新的动力来源。6A.ratherBneverCunfortunatelyDactuallyB解析：由The Race Across America is similar to our fight against cancer.可知，Reeves认为这两者都不容易，但是唯一会失败的做法就是放弃。7A.set offBkeep onCgive upDtake risksC解析：参见上题解析。8A.difficultBexcitingCimportantDwonderfulA解析：由Only about half the competitors are able to finish.可知，横跨美国的自行车赛是最艰难的比赛之一，只有一半的选手能完成比赛。9A.changeBcountCsoundDstopD解析：由The race is continuous可知，一旦比赛开始，计时器直到到达终点才会停止。10A.followedBprotectedCguaranteedDevaluatedA解析：根据语境可知，参赛选手后面都有工作人员的车辆跟随。11A.outdoorBmentalCphysicalDteamB解析：由下文工作人员的做法可知，这种比赛是打心理战。12A.promiseBpersuadeCsmile atDlie toD解析：由the cutoff(截止时间) was in two hours_it would actually be in six可知，工作人员有时
