Some people think that cheerleading is the fastest growing girls’ sport,yet more than half of Americans don’t believe it’s a sport.In addition,they fail 1 (tell)the difference between sideline cheerleaders and competitive ones.Sideline cheerleaders’ main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers, 2 shouldn’t be considered a sport.On the other hand,competitive cheerleading 3 (be)a sport.
A sport is a“physical competition against/with an opponent,governed by rules and conditions 4 which a winner is declared,and primary purpose of the competition is a comparison of the relative skills of the 5 (participate).”Cheerleading follows these guidelines,so it’s a sport.

四、阅读理解
Eating foods high in trans-fats(fats present in artificial form in industrially-produced cakes and fast food...)and saturated(饱和的)fats increases the risk of depression,according to a Spanish study,confirming previous studies that linked “junk food” with the disease.Researchers also showed that some products,such as olive oil,can fight against the risk of mental illness.
Authors of the wide-reaching study,from the universities of Navarra and Las Palmas,followed and analyzed the diet and lifestyle of over 12,000 volunteers over six years.When the study began,none of the participants had been diagnosed with depression;by the end,657 of them were new sufferers.
“Participants with an increased consumption of trans-fats presented up to a 48 percent increase in the risk of depression when they were compared to participants who did not consume these fats,” the head study author said.“The more trans-fats were consumed,the greater harmful effect they produced in the volunteers.”
The research team found,at the same time,that after assessing the effect of polyunsaturated fats made up of larger amounts of fish and vegetable oils and olive oil,these products are associated with a lower risk of suffering depression.
The report,published in the online journal PLOS ONE,noted the research was performed on a European population that enjoys a relatively low intake of trans-fats—making up only 0.4 percent of the total energy taken in by the volunteers.“Despite this,we observed an increase in the risk of suffering depression of nearly 50 percent,” said researcher Miguel Martinez.“On this basis we think it of great importance to take this effect into account in countries like the United States,where the percentage of energy derived from these fats is around 2.5 percent.”
The report pointed out that the current number of depression sufferers in the world is around 150 million people,and has increased in recent years.This rise is attributable,according to the authors,“to great changes in the sources of fats consumed in Western diets,where we have replaced certain types of beneficial fats in nuts,vegetable oils and fish with the saturated and trans-fats found in meats,butter and other products such as mass-produced cakes and fast food.”

一、单句填空
1.by 句意:他的帽子和我的一样。怪不得他错拿了我的。 考查介词搭配。by mistake “错误地”。
2.were 句意:——我后悔对我女儿说了那些话。——如果我是你,我就会向她道歉,然后和她敞开心扉地交流。考查虚拟语气。这是与现在情况相反的虚拟语气,故从句用一般过去时,be动词用were的形式。
3.tired 句意:走了一天后,他终于到了家,又累又饿。tired and hungry为形容词表状态,在句中作状语。
4.that 句意:每逢节日一家人聚在一起的时候,他常常怀念已故的父亲。考查强调句型。被强调部分为on the festival occasions,但该部分后又跟了一个定语从句,先行词是occasions,关系词when在定语从句中作时间状语。
5.terrified 句意:我藏在花园里,在那里一直待到清晨,并为我的所作所为感到恐惧。考查非谓语动词。主语I与terrify之间是被动关系,故填terrified。
6.as 句意:对一些学生来说,电脑仅仅是充当了他们玩游戏的工具。serve as充当、担任。介词as意为:作为。
7.turned 句意:Stella得知自己的新计划被拒绝后感到很失望,陷入了极大的沮丧之中。考查非谓语动词作宾补。find+宾语+宾补,由turn down the plan可知用过去分词形式。
8.optional 句意:在那所学校,英语是所有学生必修的,而法语和俄语则是选修的。考查形容词。系动词are后要用形容词作表语。optional可选择的。
9.absorbed 句意:三个小时后他回来时,他们仍然坐在沙发上专心地交谈着。根据be absorbed in可知此处应该用absorbed。
10.benefit 句意:为了山区那些不能很好地接受教育的孩子的利益,我们已经募集了一大笔资金。考查固定搭配。for the benefit of为了……的利益。定冠词the后要用名词形式。
二、语法填空
[语篇解读] 有的人认为拉拉队的活动只不过是一些女孩子的自发加油行为,但是,也有人认为,其实,拉拉队的活动也是一种体育运动。
1.to tell 考查非谓语动词。fail to do sth意为“没有做成某事”。
2.which 考查定语从句。这里用which引导非限制性定语从句,which在从句中作主语。
3.is 考查主谓一致。句中competitive cheerleading作主语,谓语动词用单数。
4.under 考查介词。本空需要介词under与先行词condition构成固定短语,under the condition...意为“在……情况下”。
5.participants 考查词形转换。根据本空前的of和the可知,这里需要一个名词;又根据句意,此处应用participant表示“参加者”。
6.activities 考查名词。根据本句中的lots of可知,用activity的复数形式。
7.are thrown 考查动词。players与throw为被动关系,这里应该使用被动语态。
8.strength 考查词形转换。本空需要名词作require的宾语,与cooperation并列。
9.does 考查倒装。句意:就像足球和篮球的竞技比赛都有自己的规则一样,竞技性拉拉队的活动也有自己的规则。当前面提到的情况也适合后者时,用“so+助动词+主语”的结构;时态为一般现在时,故填does。
10.less 考查比较级。根据本句中的than可知,这里应该使用little的比较级。less than three minutes意为“在三分钟之内”。

2.D 根据常识我们知道德国不属于发展中国家,故排除B,又因为traditional“传统的”和typical“典型的”跟“无家可归的人”没有关系,故选D,即像德国这样富裕的国家也有“无家可归的人”。

7.A 通读第三段可知,Kurt Muller夫妇发现只提供食物和衣服是不够的,“无家可归的人”还需要温暖和关心。necessary 必要的;helpful 有帮助的;expensive 昂贵的,均不符合题意,故选A。
8.D 根据设空处前面的warmth,再根据下文所述,Kurt Muller夫妇把自己家的电话号码给了流浪者并且告诉他们可以在任何时候打电话,他们的家随时为他们开放可知选D。caring 关心,照顾,符合语境。

四、阅读理解
[语篇解读] 科学家发现,垃圾食品中富含的反式脂肪酸能增加罹患抑郁症的风险。因此,为了健康,请远离垃圾食品,远离反式脂肪酸。
1.A 主旨大意题。说明文的特点是开门见山,文章的开头往往就是对全文的概括。根据文章第一段前两句可知,西班牙研究人员发现,多吃富含反式脂肪酸和饱和脂肪酸的食物可能使人增加罹患抑郁症的风险。这项研究结果进一步证明多吃“垃圾食品” 容易诱发抑郁症。由此判断A项标题最能概括全文主旨。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第四段内容可知,鱼类、植物油和橄榄油所含的多不饱和脂肪与罹患抑郁症风险存在较低关联。故答案选D。
3.C 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知,研究开始时,12,000名志愿者均非抑郁症患者,研究结束时,657人患上抑郁症,故C项正确。
4.A 词义猜测题。根据上文可知,欧洲人日常摄取的反式脂肪相对较少,占摄入总热量的0.4%。与之对照的是,在美国,从这些脂肪中摄取的热量占一个人日常总能量的2.5%左右。故A项(获得)意思最接近derived。
5.C 细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句中great changes in the sources of fats consumed in Western diets可知,越来越多的西方人罹患抑郁症应归咎于西方饮食中脂肪来源发生了根本性改变。
