She was outstanding; many guys were after her, but nobody paid any attention to him. After the party, he invited her for coffee. She was surprised! In order not to appear rude, she went along.As they sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything and she felt uncomfortable. Suddenly, he asked the waiter, “Could you please give me some salt? Id like to put it in my coffee.”They stared at him. He turned red, but when the salt came, he put it in his coffee and drank. Curious, she asked, “Why salt with coffee?” He explained, “When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea. I liked playing on the sea. I could feel it salty, like salty coffee. Now every time I drink it, I think of my childhood and my hometown. I miss it and my parents, who are still there.”She was deeply moved. A man who can admit that hes homesick must love his home and care about his family. He must be responsible. She talked too, about her far away hometown, her childhood, her family. That was the start to their love story.They continued to date. She found that he met all her requirements. He was kind, warm and careful. She thought she would have missed the catch if not for the salty coffee! So they married and lived happily together. And every time she made coffee for him, she put in some salt, the way he liked it.After 40 years, he passed away and left her a letter which said:My dearest, please forgive me my life-long lie. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous that I asked for salt instead of sugar. Sweetheart, I dont exactly like salty coffee. But as it means so much to you, Ive learned to enjoy it. Having you with me was my greatest happiness. If I could live a second time, I hope we can be together again, even if it means that I have to drink salty coffee for the rest of my life.24.

Suddenly, he asked the waiter, “Could you please give me some salt? Id like to put it in my coffee.可知，这个人当时太紧张了，把糖说错成了盐。故选C。【25题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段But as it mattered so much to you, Ive learnt to enjoy it. Having you with me was my greatest happiness. 但因为它对你如此重要，我学会了享受它。有你在我身边是我最大的幸福。从而可以推断，这个男人非常爱这位女士。故选D。【26题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段My dearest, please forgive me my life-long lie.及全文讲述了在恋爱的时候，有一次男主人公请女朋友喝咖啡，由于紧张把糖说成盐，但是不好意思纠正，只好说自己喜欢喝咸咖啡。结婚之后，女主人公给自己的丈夫泡咖啡时总会加点盐，这样男主人公喝了40年的咸咖啡，最后男主人公去世后留给女主人公一封信才揭开这个善意的谎言。所以A Life-long Lie是最好的标题。故选A。CAccording to a recent report, about 15% of the people in the UK are members of gyms. But are they more likely to be fit?A study found that gym members were 14 times more active than people who didnt belong to any health club. Gym members did six hours more exercise a week, and this activity did make them fitter than non-gym members. They also spent less time sitting down every day than non-gym members. The results were the same for men and women.The study included 405 people between the ages of 30 and 64, and the main characteristics of those who were gym members were the same as those who were not. “But gym members did more training than non-gym members,” said the lead author, Elizabeth Schroeder of the University of Illinois.While it might seem clear that gym members exercise more and are healthier than non-gym members, Schroeder says this has not been directly shown before. However, the study is only designed to show a tie between gym membership and more exercise. It may be that active people like to join gyms. In the study, people who exercised as much as gym members were also in good health.You can get the same benefits wherever you exercise. This study shows a gym membership can make you do more exercise, but other research shows that exercising outside has other help. Outdoor activity can make you feel happy about lifeespecially if you run through a forest.Outdoor exercise is also more interesting than going to the gym. The first five minutes of outdoor exercise is especially helpful in making people feel good. But Schroeder says that a gym may also encourage greater exercise because it can be social and fun.27. What did the new study find out?A. Gym members had healthier eating habits.B. There were fewer women gym members than men.C. Gym members were more active than non-gym members.D. Gym members did at least eight hours of exercise a week.28. In the study, researchers studied .A. 30 gym members and 64 non-gym membersB. people from different age groupC. some sports loversD. 405 people who exercise outdoors29. What does the word “benefits” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Help. B. Need. C. Advice. D. Injury.30. Which of the following statements will Elizabeth Schroeder agree with?A. Women should do more gym exercise.B. We should be careful with outdoor training.C. Outdoor exercise is better than gym exercise.D. It is easier to keep exercising if you go to the gym.【答案】27. C 28. B 29. A 30. D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章作者对去健身房运动的诸多好处进行了详细的介绍。【27题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段A study found that gym members were 14 times more active than people who didnt belong to any health club.可知，新的研究发现健身房会员比非健身房会员更积极。故选D。【28题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段The study included 405 people between the ages of 30 and 64, and the main characteristics of those who were gym members were the same as those who were not.该研究包括405名年龄在30岁至64岁之间的人，从而可以推断出在研究中，研究人员研究不同的年龄人群。故选B。【29题详解】词义猜测题。根据文章倒数第二段This study shows a gym membership can make you do more exercise, but other research shows that exercising outside has other help. Outdoor activity can make you feel happy about lifeespecially if you run through a forest.这里说明了运动的诸多好处，由此推知You can get the same benefits wherever you exercise.的意思是无论在哪里你运动，你都可以获得同样的有益的东西。故选A。【30题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段But Schroeder says that a gym may also encourage greater exercise because it can be social and fun, (但是Schroeder说，一个健身房也可能鼓励更多的锻炼，因为它是社会性的并且很有乐趣)，由此推测出Elizabeth Schroeder会同意这样的观点“如果你去健身房，会更容易保持锻炼”。故选D。【点睛】阅读理解通常都会出现词义猜测题，要求考生从上下文理解中概括出生词或短语的词义。考生作此类题型时，首先要找到所猜测词所在文章的位置，然后在理解文章大意的基础之上，对此词前后句反复研读，最后根据前后句猜测出词义。例如小题3要求猜测出benefits的含义，就是根据文章倒数第二段This study shows a gym membership can make you do more exercise, but other research shows that exercising outside has other help. Outdoor activity can make you feel happy about lifeespecially if you run through a forest.这里说明了运动的诸多好处，由此推知You can get the same benefits wherever you exercise.的意思是无论在哪里你运动，你都可以获得同样的有益的东西，从而推测出benefits之意。第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑，选项中有两项为多余选项。Lots of people find it hard to get up in the morning, and put the blame on the alarm clock.
