2019-2020學年廣東省廣州市荔灣區高一（上）期末英語試卷

第|卷第一部分 閱讀理解（共兩節，滿分30分）第一節 （共3小題；每小題10分，滿分30分）閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C、和D）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑．

• 1．It was a cold March day in High Point，North Carolina．The girls on the Wesleyan Academy softball team were waiting for their next turns at bat during practice，stamping their feet to stay warm，Eighth-grader Taylor Bisbee shivered（發抖） a little as she watched her teammate Paris White play．The two didn't know each other well-Taylor had just moved to town a month or so before．
  Suddenly，Paris fell to the ground．"Paris's eyes rolled back，"Taylor says．"She started shaking．I knew it was an emergency．"
  It certainly was．Paris had suffered a sudden heart failure．Without immediate medical care，Paris would die．At first，no one moved．The girls were in shock．Then the softball coach shouted out，"Does anyone know CPR？"
  CPR is a life-saving technique．To do CPR，you press on the sick person's chest so that blood moves through the body and takes oxygen to organs．Without oxygen the brain is damaged quickly．
  Amazingly，Taylor had just taken a CPR course the day before．Still，she hesitated．She didn't think she knew it well enough．But when no one else came forward，Taylor ran to Paris and began doing CPR．"It was scary．I knew it was the difference between life and death，"says Taylor．
  Taylor's swift action helped her teammates calm down．One girl called 911．Two more ran to get the school nurse，who brought a defibrillator，an electronic devices（器械） that can shock the heart back into work．Luck stayed with them：Paris' heartbeat returned．
  "I know I was really lucky，"Paris says now．"Most people don't survive this．My team saved my life．"
  Experts say Paris is right：For a sudden heart failure，the single best chance for survival is having someone nearby step in and do CPR quickly．
  Today，Paris is back on the softball team．Taylor will apply to college soon．She wants to be a nurse．"I feel more confident in my actions now，"Taylor says．"I know I can act under pressure in a scary situation．"
  
  （1）What happened to Paris on a March day？

  
  A．She caught a bad cold．
  B．She had a sudden heart problem．
  C．She was knocked down by a ball．
  D．She shivered terribly during practice
  （2）Why does Paris say she was lucky？

  D．She came back on the softball team．

• 2．Playing tennis regularly could help keep people off death，but football，rugby and running may not help people to live longer，a study suggests．
     A study followed more than 80，000 people for an average of nine years to find out if certain sports protected them against early death．It found that people who played racket sports regularly were the least likely to die over the study period，reducing their individual risk by 47 percent compared with people who did no exercise．Swimmers also reduced their chance of death by 28 percent，aerobics （有氧運動） fans by 27 percent and cyclists by 15 percent．Yet running appeared to have no impact at all on dying early，and neither did playing football or rugby．
     Scientists say the difference may lie in the social aspect which goes alongside sports like tennis and squash （壁球），which often involve clubs and organized activities outside of the game．It means that people often have larger social net-works and tend to keep up activities into later life，both of which are proven to be good for health．
     In contrast，people who play team sports often do not move onto a new sport once their teams break up for family，or injury reasons．They become watchers rather than participants in their chosen activity．
     The researchers found that playing racket sports was associated with a 56 percent lower risk from heart death．Similarly，swimmers lowered their heart disease or stroke risk by 41 percent，and people who took part in activities like aerobics，dance or gymnastics lowered their risk by 36 percent．But again running，football and rugby had no significant impact on heart deaths．
     However，other experts argue that this study must not be misinterpreted as showing that running and football do not protect against heart disease．In this study both runners and footballers had a lower rate of death from heart disease．
  
  （1）Which sport has hardly any impact on protecting people against early death？

  
  A．Cycling．
  B．Swimming．
  C．Rugby．
  D．Tennis．
  （2）According to the study，which makes a big difference in keeping healthy？

  
  A．Playing basketball with their friends occasionally．
  B．Watching football games every day．
  C．Taking up gymnastics and joining a club．
  D．Doing running in the park every day．
  （3）What is considered more important to people's health？

  
  A．Social networks．
  B．Staying at home．
  C．Physical examinations．
  D．Setting up families．
  （4）What is the main idea of the text？

  
  A．Thousands of people participated in a 9-year research．
  B．Study finds playing tennis helps people live longer．
  C．It is wrong to say running has no impact on heart disease．
  D．There are differences between racket sports and team games．
