　　Unit 2 The Olympic Games

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　(2015·海淀区第二学期期中)

　　Sports are the base of my life, next to my mother who raised me when my dad left us. I have been into sports since I was six years old. I have known many coaches and heard hundreds of their tips, but they usually focused on drills to develop my skills and reach the next level of play.

　　When I was in Senior Two, I met the new school basketball coach, Brian Pawloski. I thought I was certain to be selected for the school team since I had been in it the year before. I showed up to the tryouts and put out about 90% effort since I thought I'd make it with no problem. That was a big mistake.

　　Brian Pawloski is the hardest­working coach I have ever met. He didn't expect 100% effort; he expected 200% effort. One example: he once made us do 40 suicide drills for the 40 lay­ups (投篮) we missed in a game. Some think this is crazy, but it isn't. After this conditioning practice, as we were getting a cup of cold water to drink, I said, “coach, that was the best practice I ever had.” I was completely sincere. This man was and is the person who influenced me most at my high school. He expects us to be excellent not just on the court but in the classroom. If I am not working on basketball, I am reading a book that he thinks will help us better understand life's challenges, including Wooden, Coach, and The Screwtape Letters.

　　In the first two years I slacked_off,_not putting forth my full potential. Now, unlike the coaches of my youth, this man was interested in how he did off the court. He always made sure I kept up with my studies and was able to be trusted. I can honestly say that no other coach has given me so much advice on how to succeed in basketball, but more importantly, in life. My school is lucky to have such a great person to teach, coach and influence their students. I will always remember my high­school basketball days as one of the hardest times I have ever worked in my life not only in basketball but in my growth as an individual.

　　文章大意：这是一篇英语传记故事阅读。文章主要讲述了作者中学时的篮球教练对他一生的影响。

　　1．Different from other coaches, Coach Brian ________.

　　A．concentrated on skill training

　　B．trained the team to the edge of death

　　C．expected the team to do well in their studies

　　D．asked the team to do more reading than training

　　答案：C　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的Now，unlike the coaches of my

　　youth, this man was interested in how we did off the court. He always made sure I kept up with my studies and was able to be trusted. I can honestly say no other coach has given me so much advice on how to succeed in basketball，but more importantly，in life可知Coach Brian不仅关心学生们的训练还关心学生们的学习和生活，这是其他教练所没有的。故选C。

　　2．The underlined phrase “slacked off” in the last paragraph probably means ________.

　　A．paid no attention

　　B．showed no interest

　　C．had less passion

　　D．made less effort

　　答案：D　词义猜测题。paid no attention没注意；showed no interest显示没兴趣；had less passion有更少的激情；made less effort付出更少的努力。根据画线单词后的not putting forth my full potential“没有付出我全部的潜能”判断是“付出了更少的努力”。故应选D。

　　3．In the author's eye, Coach Brian is ________.

　　A．strict and helpful B．hardworking and honest

　　C．skilled and cruel D．professional and serious

　　答案：A　推理判断题。strict and helpful严格但有帮助的；hardworking and honest工作勤奋而且诚实；skilled and cruel技能熟练并残酷；professional and serious专业并严肃。通读全文，特别是最后一段都透露着作者感到老师的严格和对他的一生都有帮助。故选A。

　　Ⅱ.完形填空

　　(2015·课标全国)

　　Where do you go when you want to learn something？School？A friend？A tutor？These are all__1__places of learning.But it may well be that the learning you really want__2__ somewhere else instead.I had the__3__of seeing this first hand on a__4__.

　　立意与点拨：文章开篇提出了主题，然后通过自己观看女儿参加足球锦标赛的经历告诉我们，一个人真正需要的是自己在亲身经历中通过摸索、反思获得的东西。所以经验是最好的老师。7、8、15、18是词义复现题；2、3、12、16、17是语境理解题；1、9、11、19是背景常识题；4、5、6、10、13、14是逻辑推理题。

　　C．officialD．special

　　答案：B　背景常识题。public意为“公共的”；traditional意为“传统的”；official意为“官方的；正式的”；special意为“特别的；专门的”。these指代的是上文提到的school，friend，tutor，根据常识可知，这些都是传统的学习之处，故选B项。

　　2．A.passes B．works

　　C．lies D．ends

　　答案：C　pass意为“经过”；work意为“工作；起作用”；lie意为“躺；位于”；end意为“结束；终止”。分析句子结构可知，that从句中的主语为learning，you really want为定语从句，修饰learning，这里要说的是真正的学习在其他地方。lie somewhere else意为“在其他某个地方”。故选C项。

　　3．A.dream B．idea

　　C．habit D．chance

　　答案：D　dream意为“梦想”；idea意为“想法；观点”；habit意为“习惯”；chance意为“机会；可能性”。由下文的描述可知，作者在一个周末有机会亲眼目睹了女儿在这些传统的地方之外学到了她真正想要的东西。have the chance of doing sth.意为“有机会干某事”。故选D项。

　　5．A.won B．entered

　　C．organized D．watched

　　答案：B　win意为“赢得”；enter意为“报名(参加)；进入”；organize意为“组织”；watch意为“观看”。由语境可知，这里指的是女儿参加的业余球队在这个赛季中表现不错，因此得以参加通常只有专业的俱乐部球队参加的锦标赛。故选B项。

　　答案：A　painful意为“痛苦的”；strange意为“奇怪的”；common意为“普通的”；practical意为“实际的”。根据下文内容，对手比作者女儿的球队更为专业，可以推断女儿球队在比赛中会有一些痛苦的经历。故选A项。

　　7．A.less B．poorly

　　9．A.imagined B．hated

　　C．avoided D．missed

　　10．A.if B．or

　　C．but D．as

　　答案：C　很显然，playing her best和were defeated之间是转折关系，用but表转折。故选C项。

　　11．A.girls B．parents

　　C．coaches D．viewers

　　答案：A　根据最后一段第一句中的．..moment for all the girls on the team.可知此处指的是女儿所在球队的女队员们，故选girls。

　　答案：B　句意为：我突然想到，和对手比赛对于这些女孩来说是一个非常好的学习时刻。此处讲的是作者在看比赛后的所思所想。It strikes sb. that...意为“某人突然想到……”。

　　C．encouraging D．learning

　　20．A.harmful to B．mixed with

　　C．different from D．applied to

　　答案：C　句意为：他们所学到的这些经验可能和在学校学到的没什么不同，但是这些经验一定更加个人化、更有意义，因为这是她们靠自己的努力学到的。be harmful to意为“对……有害”；be mixed with意为“和……混合”；be different from意为“与……不同”；be applied to意为“应用于……”。but后为不同之处，可推知此处说的是没什么不同。故选C项。
