Book 4 Unit 2 Sports events[阅读理解组块练]Ⅰ.阅读理解ASports and exercise tend to go hand in hand.So people involved in sports gradually become fitter.While this can be achieved by dieting and hitting the gym too，sports make this process fun，as the person involved in a sport is so busy enjoying himself or herself that he or she loses track of time.A healthy mind comes from a healthy body.It is no surprise that since most sports usually involve exercise，it makes fo r the mind as the feel­good hormones(荷尔蒙) of the body，called endorphins，are released.They are stress killers and bring a relaxing feeling.Getting better at a sport is a skill that may not have a financial relation to your life，but it can definitely have an impact on the quality of your life.People respect those who show excellence in any field，and sports are no exception.If this is turned into a skill，then it can even lead to ways of developing a career.Many popular sports like American football，soccer，basketball，volleyball，etc.，are played in teams.This teaches values and skills like leadership，communication，and sacrifice.Not only does this benefit the person in developing a better game，but it actually helps in all walks of life，as these values are essential if one is to lead a good life.All sports have an outcome.One side wins，and the other loses.Winning and losing is a part of life.Sports teach this lesson to people.Some people glide along as long as there are no hardships in life，but the moment the life is against them，they find their emotional strength decreasing.Sports definitely teach a person how to take losses with grace and move on to achieve greater things in the face of difficulties.Children and adolescents are filled with physical energy.Teenage is such an impressionable age.If adolescents are given free time they may get involved in wrong activities，may fall in bad company，or may also become anti­social.But when they are involved in sports，their physical energies are used up in a constructive way.In sports，a person has to make quick decisions depending upon the situationthat he is in.Thus，a person who is involved in sports is able to make wise and quick decisions in other areas of life as well.When something is improving your health，making you physically fitter，earning you respect among people and generally making you feel better about yourself，it is safe to say that such a thing does a whole world of good to your self­confidence.Sports are one of the few things out there that do not have any drawbacks.With sports，it is never too late.1．It is implied in the first paragraph that ________.A．dieting is more effective than sportsB．sports are the best way to keep fitC．dieting can also contribute to good healthD．sports increase a person's appetite2．According to the passage，endorphins can help one ________.A．feel relaxedB．promote happinessC．make quick decisionsD．take losses gracefully3．Paragraph 4 is mainly about the positive effect of sports on ________. A．strengthening one's abilitiesB．improving teamworkC．broadening the horizonsD．increasing self­confidence4．According to the passage，sports are likely to prevent children from ________. A．making great academic achievementsB．being addicted to computer gamesC．building their social relationshipD．behaving in a wrong way【答案与解析】1．C 推理判断题。

Many now believe that colors can not only cause emotional reactions, but can also correct mood. Colors behave in three basic ways: active, passive and neutral (中和的)．Active colors are warm colors, including yellow, orange and red. These colors bring confidence. Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes. Yellows and golden colors work well in offices, kitchens and study areas. Reds heat up a room. Passive colors or cool colors make people calm, quiet and satisfied. Bedrooms, private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues and greens. Beige, gray and white are thought of as neutral colors. They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tone down (使柔和) colors that might otherwise be overpowering on their own.You can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors. Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion, and provide a welcoming feel for guests.To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room, use bright, warm colors like yellow, orange and red. These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight. Yellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms. You can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts, such as kitchens and laundry room. In rooms where there's plenty of sunshine, cool colors can provide a calming environment. Sage greens and sky blues are perfect for bedrooms, playrooms and activity areas. Neutral colors, such as pale gray, white and beige, send a peacefulmessage to your brain. It's not a coincidence that most doctor's offices, coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals.To make your wall color choices better, pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast. Cool colors make a room seem larger than it is and warm colors make rooms feel smaller.Title: The Connection between 1. ____________情态动词1.
