2020年湖北省宜昌市第一中学高三英语下学期期末试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AAs the MOOC craze continues to explode, anyone interested in taking an online course faces a tricky question: Which course to take? Here are five aspects that you should consider before you start.(1)What is your learning style?Many MOOCs are video-based. Other courses use presentation formats. Some also require participation in group work. If you want to stay motivated during your course, think about how you enjoy learning.Are you a visual learner, preferring to use images to understand a topic? If so, a video-based course will work well for you. If you are a verbal learner who gains new information by speaking and writing, try a text-based course with lots of note-taking. Social learners, meanwhile, will thrive in forum discussions and project-based assessment.(2)Are you ready to become a full-time student?Be realistic about the time that you can commit to your online studies. Participating in an online course can take as much time and commitment as a class-based program. Check the course requirements and make a plan around your current schedule.(3) Does the course really meet your needs?Whether you are interested in a professional qualification or want to take a personal development course like yoga, there is a MOOC for you. It's easy to get caught up in the excitement of taking lots of free courses in everything that you ever wanted to learn. Before you start a course, think about the end goal. Is the course aimed at beginners or advanced learners? Why do you need this qualification?(4) Do you need a support group?Some people learn best from seeing how others approach the problem. If you are such as learner, you will need to supplement your online lessons with an in-person support group.(5) What kind of certification will you get?Take time to find out what kind of certification is available upon completion of the course, and how you can prove your learning to others - for example, certificates, transcripts or digital badges.1. What kind of MOOC's does the author recommend to verbal learners?A. A video-based course.B. A text-based course.C. A forum-based discussion.D. A project-based assessment.2. What kind of learners need an in-person support group?A. Learners who prefer individual work.B. Learners who are in great need of a certificate.C. Learners who are too busy to become a full-time student.D. Learners who learn best from observing how others address the problem.3. What is the passage mainly about?A. Picking the right MOOC's for you.B. Deciding your learning style.C. Taking the right course you need.D. Choosing a suitable support group.BWhen you say the word donkey, whatthings come to your mind? A few people might say they’re cute, but the majority think they’re stubborn, dumb and all-round less capable than their horse s.However, this wasn’t the case for a recently unearthed ancient Chinese noblewoman who was unexpectedly found buried with her donkeys. Published in the journal Antiquity in March, Chinese archaeologists (考古学家) first discovered the tomb in Xi’an, Shaanxi, in 2012. The team examined the remains and identified the body as Cui Shi, a Tang Dynasty high-born lady who died in 878 AD.Speaking to Science Magazine in 2012, the study’s co-author, Fiona Marshall, said the finding caused confusion as “donkeys … are not associated with high-status people”.However, following years of further research, the team discovered artworks and artifacts that showed a sport known as “Lvju”. This was similar to modern-day polo (马球)and was popular among noble (高贵的) women at the time. They preferred to use donkeys instead of full-sized horses for safety reasons, due to their smaller size and slower speed.Speaking to CNN, Marshall later said, “Historical documents also showed that ladies of the late Tang court loved to play donkey polo.”At that time in Chinese history, animals were often placed in tombs so that they could be used for a specific purpose in the afterlife. The study determined that Cui Shi likely requested that her beloved donkeys be buried with her, so that she could continue her favorite sport after death. In total, three donkeys were found inside her tomb with riding gear (装备), including stirrups (马镫). “This context provides evidence that the donkeys in her tomb were for polo, not transport,” lead author Hu Songmei of the Shaanxi Academy of Archaeology told ScienceMagazine.Before the study, it was believed that donkeys were only used to carry loads, but now it may be time to see them as a sign of achieving high social status(地位), well, in ancient times.4. What do most people think of donkeys, according to the text?A. They are as adorable(可爱的) as horses.B. They are stubborn and not so capable.C. They were necessary in ancient sports.D. They were a sign of high social status.5. Why did Fiona Marshall feel confused when she discovered the donkeys?A. She didn’t connect donkeys with nobles.B. She hadn’t seen donkeys in ancient tombs before.C. She didn’t expect to find donkeys in a woman’s tomb.D. She didn’t understand why animals were in human tombs.6. What do we know about the sport “Lvju” from the text?A. Horses were preferred in Lvju.B Lvju was similar to modern-day soccer.C. Lvju was popular among common people.D. Donkeys were preferred in the sport for safety.7. The donkeys were found in the tomb of Cui Shi probably because _______.A. she intended to use them for transport after deathB. her family didn’t want her to be lonely after deathC. she wanted to continue to play Lvju after deathD. noble women needed donkeys to maintain their dignityCThere is nothing ordinary about this little boy's adorable experience with his musical heroes.5-year-old Taylor Hooper was just one of the 35,0000people who were attending the Foo Fighters concert in Belfast, Norther Ireland last week. Not only is the American rock group his favorite band, it was also his first ever concert.Taylor's mother, Nikki Hooper, says that she and her husband have always been huge fans of the Foo Fighters. In addition to traveling far and wide to see their shows, they even named their son after the drummer, Taylor Hawkins. So when the band played in their home city, they decided it was finally time for their son to see their beloved rock and rockers in concert.“He's been listening to them since he was born — mainly because his dad and I are super fans.” Mrs Hoopertold BBC. “We called the event organizers and they said it would be no problem, but that we should know it would be a loud music event, so we gotTaylorsome special headphones. When we got there everyone was so welcoming to him.”Throughout the show, the audience continuously madeTaylorand his parents move closer to the stage. Furthermore, Mrs. Hooper helped her son stand out from the crowd by making him a sign that said he was a 5-year-old attending his first concert.When Foo Fighters front man Dave Grohl finally saw the sign and read it aloud into the microphone, the crowd began chanting for them to bring the youngster onto the stage. That's exactly what he did. When the stage managers brought the boy to the stage, Grohl asked Taylor to show the crowd how to dance．The small boy then danced to the whole song, making him an “Inter net wonder”.Taylordidn't just walk away from the show with memories, either;the band also invited him backstage to give him a number of gifts, includinga pair of Taylor Hawkins's drumsticks.8. What is Foo Fighters in the passage?A. I's a music show.B. It's a music band.C. It's a pop song.D. It's a music fan.9. We can learn from Paragraph 3 that_______．A. the organizers refused to let the child watch the showB. there was nothing wrong for the child to watch the showC. the organizers suggested the kid take care of the loud noiseD. the child felt so scared that he didn't want to go to the stage10. How did 5-year-old Taylor Hooper cause people's attention?A. By shouting loudly.B. By running to the singers.C. By holding a sign showing his age.D. By dancing to the whole song.11.

Only one in 1,000 baby sea turtles survive to adulthood (成年). From its home in the sand, it breaks its egg with an egg tooth. Its mother is not there to help it. Instead, it is greeted by crabs, coyotes,and dogs waiting to eat it for dinner. To survive, the baby turtle must hide in the sand until night. Then, it moves slowly to the sea.The small turtle must swim hard to reach the ocean waters. In the sea, it tries hard to find food. It must also keep itself from being food for fish.As dangerous as the sea turtle’s life is in the natural world, its most dangerous enemies are humans. The rubbish left by humans in the ocean causes problems for the small green sea turtle. A little turtle might eat a piece ofplastic (塑料) in the sea. It might also eat oil on the ocean’s surface. Young turtles also get caught in fishing nets. There are laws against hunting sea turtles. Still, many are hunted, both for their meat and for their shells (壳). All of these dangers must be prevented.Sea turtles that do survive to grow into adulthood go through many changes. For example, adult green sea turtles weigh about 500 pounds. They stop eating jellyfish and other meat and eat only plants. And they may plan a trip to go back home again. A mother sea turtle goes back to the beach where she was born. This is the only place where she will lay eggs. Even if it has been forty years since she was a baby, she always knows her way back home.12. Why do baby turtles move to the sea at night?A. They dislike sunshine.B. They prefer lower temperatures.C. They can find food easily then.D. They need to avoid enemies.13. What does the author think of the young turtles in Paragraph 3?A. Pitiful.B. Careless.C. Interesting.D. Courageous.14. What can we learn about sea turtles?A. They mainly feed on fish and meat.B. They always produce eggs at their birthplaces.C. They can live for around forty years.D. They visit their beach homes several times a year.15. What is the text mainly about?A. The homes of green sea turtles.B. How sea turtles find their food.C. The dangers faced by sea turtles.D. How young turtles become adults.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

湖北省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(附带答案）一、阅读理解Have your ever tried podcasts(播客)? If you wish to feel happier, or just learn random things, click here. Here are some of the most exciting podcast series that can help you through your learning journey.Ten percent happierIt was created after Dan Harris, a journalist, had a panic attack on live national television. This led him to try meditation to heal. During this journey, he wrote the book 10% Happier, which talks about the stages of his development. After the book became a best-seller, Dan Harris created the podcast, inviting special guests, such as meditation teachers and scientists to talk about personal development.Delicious ways to feel betterElla Woodward is known as a writer and businesswoman who owns the blog “Deliciously Ella”. She approaches a sensitive subject about our relationship with food. This podcast can help you fix your negative food experiences with positive ones, which can result in enjoying all types of food in moderation and respecting your body’s natural hunger cues.Power hourSometimes, it’s challenging to see our true value within ourselves, which stops us from improving. If you’ve been down lately, you may want to check out this podcast. “Power Hour” was created by Adrienne Herbert, a wellness professional. She talks about motivation, trends, career paths and anything about self-improvement. Professionals are invited to discuss important matters.Routines and rutsSometimes, keeping your habits in place when life is putting you down is not that easy. “Routines and Ruts” can help you make a significant change in your life. The podcast is produced by Madeleine Dore, a writer who likes to explore how we can spend our days in a balanced way that includes both productivity and relaxation. She also has some interesting guests.1．Where is this text probably taken from?A．A travel brochure. B．A website.C．A course plan. D．A scientific report.2．Which podcast is targeted at people who are interested in diet advice? A．Power hour. B．Ten percent happier.C．Routines and ruts D．Delicious ways to feel better. 3．What do the four podcasts have in common?A．They are based on popular books.B．They often invite famous professionals.C．They are all created by experienced writers.D．They may contribute to our personal growth.“Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee.” Captain Ahab’s dying declaration of defiance (抗争) is among the most famous passages in Herman Melville’s novel.In reality, such victories of the hunted over the hunter were a fantasy in the cruel world of industrial whaling. The biggest cetacean of them all, the blue whale, had all but disappeared from the Southern Ocean by the time a ban on hunting it was introduced in 1967.Sightings of the largest mammal ever to live on the earth had been rare in the region since then. Not any more. A survey of coastal waters around the island of South Georgia in the sub-Antarctic has had remarkable results.In just over three weeks, in the krill-rich waters of what was once their main feeding ground, the movements of 55 Antarctic blues were recorded by the British Antarctic Survey. The finding was described as “truly, truly amazing” by one cetacean specialist. It suggests that when a comprehensive audit (审计), due in 2021, is carried out, there is a good chance that the species will prove to be in full recovery mode, as are humpbacks and other whales in the southern hemisphere.Three years ago, the Natural History Museum established a 25m skeleton (骨架) of a blue whale and named it Hope, intending to inspire new generations to builda sustainable future.The return of the world’s most splendid ocean travellers to southern waters should serve as an example for wider possibilities of conservation. Ecological wrongs can be righted, or at least mitigated, with sufficient will and organisations.The more general comeback of the whale - for which environmental campaigners should take a great deal of credit — can be an inspiration for victories yet to be won. It could also act as an added motivation to action on the climate emergency. 4．What’s the author’s purpose of mentioning the famous passage in Herman Melville’s novel?A．To describe a hunter’s bravery. B．To introduce the topic of the text. C．To stress the popularity of the novel. D．To offer information about whale hunting.5．Why was a 25m skeleton of a blue whale named Hope?A．To attract tourists to visit the museum.B．To show the unkindness of whale hunters.C．To motivate humans to live harmoniously with nature.D．To call on people to pay attention to the blue whales’ habitat.6．What does the underlined word “mitigated” in paragraph 6 probably mean? A．Developed. B．Promoted. C．Reduced. D．Solved.7．What’s the best title of the text?A．The blue whales’ comeback B．The cruelty of industrial whaling C．The importance of protecting whales D．The sustainable development of the Antarctic areaDuring its 300 or so years in Britain, tea has changed from the exotic (异国情调的) to the ordinary. Historians like to ask why the Industrial Revolution took place here in the 18th century and not elsewhere in Europe or Asia. Several historians argue that sugar played a significant role in fulling workers. Could it be that sweet, boiled water with a mildly addictive plant produced a healthier as well as more energetic population just when England needed labour? That appears to be the caseput forward by Francisca Antman, an economist at the University of Colorado.It is not a new thesis, but Professor Antman provides the first quantitative evidence that tea drinking powered the Industrial Revolution, by increasing the health of workers. Her study reveals that the practice of boiling water for tea lowered death rates by 25% in lower water-quality areas. This “accidental improvement”, she argues, occurred just as people were moving into cities, where the crowding together would otherwise have led to serious epidemics. Instead, the country possessed a healthy pool of labour needed for industrialisation.One of the key moments that shifted tea from a luxury good to a mass market drink came, the Antman paper argues, in 1784 when the tea tax was cut from 119% to 12.5% at one stroke. By the end of the century, even the humblest farmer drank tea twice a day. The East India Company also muscled out an opponent — coffee — by pushing its tea in the home market. Tea gardens made the drink a cultural custom, as did the worker’s tea break.Professor Antman argues, “Why England experienced a decline in death rates over this period without an increase in wages, living standards, or nutrition can be explained in part by the widespread adoption of tea as the national drink and increased consumption of boiled water”.8．What do we know about Professor Antman’s study?A．It offers statistical proof. B．It presents a new thesis.C．It focuses on work efficiency. D．It figures out labour demand. 9．What do the underlined words “accidental improvement” in paragraph 2 refer to? A．The decline of death rate. B．The removal of epidemics.C．The popularity of tea drinking. D．The process of moving to cities. 10．What can we infer from paragraph 3?A．Tea was ill-received by farmers. B．Coffee made push into British market. C．Tax cut made tea an affordable product. D．Workers enjoyed tea breaks in gardens.11．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．British Tea, from Exotic to Ordinary B．A Cup of Tea, a British Cultural GeneC．Why the British Drink So Much Tea? D．How Tea Affects Industrial Revolution?One way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognize its benefits. It is a mistake to think that we can make better decisions if we keep our feelings under control.Instead,a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical thinking leads to sound decision-making. There is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making.There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationships (for example,they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognizing people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger approaches.In the real world though, it’s worth realizing that feeling anxious for a while is very common.It helps you communicate with others that you care about, and what’s more, it’s probably a sign that you are intelligent. At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. This seems reasonable: If you’re a thinker, you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagining possible plots, including bad ones.The important thing, if you are a person likely to worry, is not to let your fear destroy your dreams. And don’t bury your head in the sand. Instead, act on your fears - do research as well as preparation.So rather than walk blindly into what you fear, why not meet challenges in full readiness?When anxiety beats you, or casts a shadow over your life, this is a serious problem.No one is denying that. But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or interview,you needn’t see it as your enemy. Anxiety is an important feeling，developed through evolution(进化).As for people who are fairly anxious by nature, there is a reason to cheer,too.Your nerves are a sign of your watchfulness. Listen to them and act on them. Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.12．What can we infer about anxiety from paragraph 1?A．It enables us to be more focused.B．It stops us from thinking logically.C．It makes us more willing to take risks.D．It contributes to bad decision-making.13．What can be learned about anxious people?A．They sense danger in advance.B．They score higher in tests.C．They prefer to interact with strangers.D．They tend to be thoughtful about future.14．How should we deal with anxiety in the author’s opinion?A．By regarding it as our enemy.B．By taking action to control it.C．By making use of it properly.D．By treating it as a minor feeling.15．What does the passage focus on?A．Effective ways to prevent anxiety.B．Unexpected benefits of anxiety.C．Tips on how to keep a good mood.D．Misunderstandings about anxiety.二、七选五Grieve Her Mum Through CookingGrief and mourning can be expressed in many ways. 16 . She found comfort through cooking her mother’s recipes in a planner and in turn, learned about her mother.

When she began cooking with her mother as a kid, she was in charge of turning the toast, to stop it catching. Now she is holding the spoon, adding the spices and still looking up from the stove to her mum. 20 .A．It was never easy to lose someone we loveB．She was guiding her through a lifetime of foodC．When it reached Debbie, it was worn and perfectD．She felt a sense of achievement in cooking her foodE．She is always going to be her mother’s kitchen followerF．Debbie found a new and unique way to mourn her mumG．However, she was left with some confusion at some recipes三、完形填空Jane Eyre and a bestselling Japanese thriller.

Its pink colour is less noticeable when viewed from the surface, but it is very easily seen from above. In fact, unlike other pink lakes around the world, its water is still distinctively pink even when it is in a glass.1．How long does it take to drive to the Blue Mountains from Sydney?A．Two hours. B．Three hours. C．Four hours. D．Eight hours. 2．Where should you go if you want to admire Mackenzie Falls?A．Gibson Steps. B．London Bridge. C．The Grampians. D．The Three Sisters. 3．What is Lake Hillier famous for?A．Sandstone. B．Pink water. C．A small island. D．An old legend.When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don’t worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam (横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe.A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “Safe! Safe! Safe!” And that’s what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I’d given it up.When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I’ve traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving (穿梭) among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail-thin teenager, in a baggy white T-shirt, skidded (滑) up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”“Yeah,” I said. “Safe.”4．What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London?A．He felt disappointed.B．He gave up his hobby.C．He liked the weather there.D．He had disagreements with his family.5．What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!” probably mean?A．Be careful!B．Well done!C．No way!D．Don’t worry!6．Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London? A．To join the skateboarding.B．To make new friends.C．To learn more tricks.D．To relive his childhood days.7．What message does the author seem to convey in the text?A．Children should learn a second language.B．Sport is necessary for children’s health.C．Children need a sense of being part of a team.D．Seeing the world is a must for children.Programs using animals to calm patients and reduce tension are called animal therapy(治疗). In the United States, these treatments are popular, although there is a lack of evidence to show that they work.There are, however, many stories about animal therapy helping people. For example, some children have a fear of injections (注射). That may make getting the COVID-19 vaccine (疫苗) a difficult experience. So, some hospitals use therapy animals, like Ollie, a six-year-old therapy dog, to help children at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego.One of those children is nine-year-old Avery Smith. At the children’s hospital,she cried over her fear of the vaccine. Then Ollie came in and sat at her feet. “It helped me because I never had a COVID vaccine before,” said Avery. She added, “I didn't know what it felt like. But when I saw the dog, I stopped crying.”Kristin Gist is a 75-year-old dog therapy volunteer and a former hospital programs direct tor. She is also Ollie’s owner. She said even before the vaccine, therapy dogs were already being used at the children’s hospital. Some children at the hospital are fighting cancer or other serious diseases. Gist said kids or their parents will sometimes hold the dogs and seem to feel better.However, some experts say there is a lack of scientific evidence proving that animal their apy improves a patient’s medical condition. One such expert is Hal Herzog. He is a professor at Western Carolina University. Herzog told VOA that an animal can simply distract (分散注意力) a patient. “Some studies have shown that for short-term preventing pain, staying with a dog can put your mind on something else. And in that case, I see no harm in doing it. However, this won't do much for treatment.”8．What is animal therapy intended for at Rady Children’s Hospital? A．Helping kids overcome their fear of vaccine shots.B．Reminding nurses to give injections to children.C．Accompanying children when they feel lonely.D．Helping doctors care for sick children.9．How did Avery Smith feel after Ollie came to her side?A．Confident. B．Excited. C．Anxious. D．Calm.10．What role do therapy dogs play according to Kristin Gist?A．They can cure the kids of serious diseases.B．They can remove the pain of the young patients.C．They can provide comfort for the sick kids’ family.D．They can encourage the sick children to fight disease.11．What can we infer from Herzog’s words?A．Animal therapy can be harmful in the long run.B．Animal therapy can increase patients’ stress level.C．Animal therapy has little effect on treating patients.D．Animal therapy makes patients concentrate on the pain.If you want to take good care of your eyes and vision, I encourage you to adopt the habit of blinking (眨眼) softly as often as possible. Frequent and gentle blinking is important to maintain healthy eyes and good vision because it helps to keep your eyes coated with three beneficial layers (层) of tears.The first layer of tears lies right up against the whites of your eyes, and provides an even coat of protein-rich moisture (水分) for the second layer to stick to. The middle watery layer helps to wash away foreign dust. It also provides your eyes with minerals, a variety of proteins, and moisture. The third outer layer of tears is somewhat oily. It serves to prevent the middle watery layer from drying quickly, and smooths your eyes.If your eyes are not regularly coated with the three layers of tears described above, they will be short of moisture and cleaning, and they will be unnecessarily tired.One of the reasons why many of us don’t blink as often as we should is that we don’t see frequent blinking in mainstream media. Actors and news presenters are typically trained to blink as infrequently as possible, so when we take in most forms of media, our minds learn that it isn’t normal to blink frequently.To fully support your eyes and vision, it’s best to blink softly every two to four seconds, which translates to about fifteen to thirty blinks per minute. By making an effort to softly blink at this rate, over time, your body will turn your efforts into a habit. If you’re thinking that such frequent blinking will make reading a book or viewing a movie uncomfortable, give it a try and you’ll see right away that it doesn’t take away from these experiences at all.12．What does the author suggest in the text?A．Taking good care of our eyes by eye exercises.B．Closing and opening our eyes frequently and gently.C．Maintaining healthy eyes to prevent nearsightedness.D．Crying as often as possible to gain three layers of tears.13．What is the second paragraph mainly about?A．The classification of tears.B．The causes of three layers of tears.C．The functions of three layers of tears.D．The importance of the first layer of tears.14．How does the author think of blinking frequently when reading? A．Annoying. B．Disagreeable. C．Stupid. D．Harmless. 15．What is the best title for the text?A．Keep Eyes Coated with as Many Layers of Tears as PossibleB．Try Frequent Blinking for Healthier Eyes and Better VisionC．Actors and News Presenters Set Us a Bad Example in LifestyleD．Blinking Lowers the Experiences When Reading or Seeing a Film二、七选五We all know about the health benefits of swimming. It offers a great workout for the body--it builds perseverance, muscle strength, and cardiovascular (心血is good for us.Cold-water swimming involves swimming in natural areas including ponds, rivers, and the sea. Jumping in gives a short sharp shock to the body, but many participants say they get used to it. 17 . And research has found it can have much bigger benefits than that for your body and mind. Besides being good exercise, spending time outdoors and in the water improves well-being.18 . One man who suffered constant pain after surgery claimed he was cured by taking a dive in cold open water. And another swimmer, Sandria Simons, told the BBC, “The immersion of your body in cold, salt water, just feeling like you’re at one with nature if you like, just feels amazing.”But what are people gaining from this chilly experience? Doctors say getting into cold water causes a stress response, but the more you do it, your reaction to stress is reduced. It’s also thought to have a strong anti-inflammatory (消炎的)effect. 19 . Some experts believe cold-water swimming helps “cross-adaptation”, where one form of stress prepares the body for another. For example, it also helps reduce the stress of exercising at high altitudes.20 : approach it with great care, swim with a friend, and maybe start in the summer, when the water temperatures are higher!A．A cold swim wakes you upB．So, if you’re convinced that this is for you, take this adviceC．Do you want to have a go at open water swimmingD．But who would enjoy swimming in water that’s ice coldE．But there are bigger benefits to this stress-reducing exerciseF．Evidence suggests that cold-water swimming has cured certain health conditionsG．It can also be dangerous, so it’s important to do it right三、完形填空One dark morning while driving to work, my dad’s car slipped on black ice andknowing that highway is now a safer place. I feel my dad’s 35 there.
