‎2019届二轮复习阅读理解七选五阅读10篇训练之八 Are you planning to go to university? 36 Perhaps you will be choosing the classes you want to take, finding accommodation and enrolling in other activities. However, if you go to university in Chile there is something extra you must do before you can begin.‎ An essential part of starting university in Chile is the “mechoneo” 37 Students beginning their first year at university are “welcomed” by the older university students. They are taken from their classrooms on an unknown day and blindfolded. The older students tear their clothes, cut their hair, and cover them in raw eggs and other disgusting things.‎ ‎ 38 This will be based on how well the students do the activities, and many students try very hard as they want to be the king or queen of the year. The older students then take away everything of the younger students and tell them they must go out onto the street and ask people for money. They will need to bring back a certain amount of money in order to be given their things back. 39 ‎ During March it is common to see new university students all around town wearing ripped, dirty clothes and covered in paint and mess. But the “mechoneo” is increasingly a source of dispute and debate. Some students see it as an important tradition and a unique experience that help new arrivals get to know everyone. 40 There have been campaigns to ban or soften it in favour of more “positive welcomes’’, and student organizations in some universities have voted to end the “mechoneo” completely.‎ A. It is an ancient university tradition here.‎ B. The younger students are forced to do games in dirty places.‎ C. The “queen mechona” and “king mechon” are chosen that day.‎ D. They have to do games and take up challenges for a whole day.‎ E. But others find it abusive, like a form of bullying.‎ F. What do you think you need to do in the first few weeks?‎ G. The money is then used to have a massive welcome party at night-time.‎ 参考答案：36-40 FACGE ‎[二] ‎ If you are already making the time to exercise, it is good indeed! With such busy lives, it can be hard to try and find the time to work out.36 Working out in the morning provides additional benefits beyond being physically fit.‎ l Your productivity is improved. Exercising makes you more awake and ready to handle whatever is ahead of you for the day.37‎ lYour metabolism (新陈代谢) gets a head start.38 If you work out in the mornings, then you will be getting the calorie (卡路里)burning benefits for the whole day, not in your sleep.‎ l39 Studies found that people who woke up early for exercise slept better than those who exercised in the evening. Exercise energizes you, so it is more difficult to relax and have a peaceful sleep when you are very excited.‎ l40 If you work out bright and early in the morning, you will be more likely to stick to healthy food choices throughout the day. Who would want to ruin their good workout by eating junk food? You will want to continue to focus on positive choices.‎ There are a lot of benefits to working out, especially in the mornings. Set your alarm clock an hour early and push yourself to work out! You will feel energized all day long.‎ A. ‎ You will stick to your diet. ‎ B. B. Your quality of sleep improves.‎ C. You prefer healthy food to fast food.‎ D. There is no reason you should exercise in the morning.‎ E. You can keep you head clear for 4-10 hours after exercise.‎ F. After you exercise, you continue to burn calories throughout the day.‎ G. If you are planning to do exercise regularly, or you’re doing it now, then listen up.‎ 参考范文：36-40．GEFBA ‎ [三] ‎ Any exercise is good exercise, but when it comes to losing weight, it’s hard to beat running. After all, running is one of the most efficient ways to burn calories and get fit without having to restrict your diet. 31 If you’re not a runner yet but interested in losing weight, here are four reasons running can be the best exercise for weight loss.‎ ‎ 32 When comparing running with walking the same distance, studies find that running will lead to greater weight loss, most likely because ‎ your resting energy expenditure stays elevated(高的) after you run. In a long-term comparison study of runners and walkers, calories burned through running led to 90% more weight loss than calories burned through walking.‎ Running is time-efficient. Even if the myth that running a mile and walking a mile burn the same number of calories were true, running is a considerably faster way to burn those calories. 33 ‎ Running is convenient. Though many of us have accumulated a vast arsenal（武器，装备） of GPS gadgets and tech tees over the years, little is actually required to go running. You can do it alone. You can do it almost anywhere. 34 For this reason alone, running is the best workout for weight loss because it’s cheap and accessible, and there are fewer barriers to maintaining a routine, even while traveling.‎ Two words: runner’s high. 35 Fortunately, studies support what many runners have experienced on an anecdotal level—running can actually get you high. Scientists have found links between moderate to intense exercise and morphine-like brain chemicals, which explains the occasional flood of thrill that rushes over you during a hard run. That happy sensation you had after your last race makes you want to go for another run, right?‎ A. Cultivate the good habit of running.‎ B. Running works even when you’re at rest.‎ C. You will never stick to a habit if you don’t like it.‎ D. The first rule of exercising for weight loss is that if you don’t enjoy it, you won’t stick with it.‎ E. You don’t need any equipment beyond a pair of running shoes.‎ F. If you’re already a runner, keep on.‎ G. Most people can run two or three times as far as they can walk in a given amount of time.‎ 参考范文：31-35 FBGED ‎[四] ‎ Suggestions for cooking on a Tight Schedule In my opinion, there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money and time, __36__Money is a topic I’ll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three suggestions for great cooking on a tight schedule: ‎ ‎ 1. Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think about of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready?___37___ ‎ ‎ 2. Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? __38___ it takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal. ‎ ‎3.__39__ This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule. ‎ Hopefully that gives you a good start. __40__ and don’t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live! ‎ A. Cooking is a burden for many people.‎ B. Make three or four instead. ‎ C. Ability is easily improved.‎ D.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.‎ E. Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.‎ F. Try new things.‎ G.

Children dream big dreams, but there are three barriers to realizing dreams. They often kill them before they ever have a chance ‎ to grow.‎ The Self Immediately following the birth of a big dream, a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it cannot happen. This inside voice is the ego (自我) . It’s there for protecting and should be listened to. 37 Most people are influenced by the inside voice. That’s why only a handful of people make their dreams come true.‎ ‎ 38‎ Family and friends are a lot like the ego. They want to protect those they love, so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams won’t come true. Sometimes, family and friends destroy dreams of those they love most, out of their own fear of being left behind.‎ The World If one gets past the first two barriers, one has to face the world. 39 In the past, big dreams were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world. Fortunately, in most of the world today, big dreams just get laughed at.‎ The way to realize a big dream is with confidence and action. When children have confidence and then take action, they will be ready to accept any failure. The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well. 40 ‎ A．Family and friends.‎ B．How big Dreams die.‎ C．Does a big dream show one’s failure?‎ D．They simply fail until they succeed.‎ E．It is the last and the most terrible barrier.‎ F．Sometimes it is right, but more often it is wrong.‎ G．And their big dream is to be a rock star or a famous artist. ‎ 参考答案：36-40 CFAED ‎ [六] ‎ Sometimes boys and girls find it really hard to properly deal with the relationship with people of the opposite sex 36 .‎ Keep a normal and healthy state of mind. Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls. 37 We should make as many friends as possible. We should keep in touch with the other sex in public instead of in secret.‎ ‎ 38 If you are a shy person, you can also find a way out. 39 As both of you have much in common, you may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others.‎ Don’t fall into early love. The boys and girls at a adolescence (青春期) are rich in feeling. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, early love is a green apple that can’t be eaten. An apple won’t taste sweet until it is full ripe. 40 Do keep out of early love.‎ A. First of all, you can make friends with the students who have the same interest and hobby as you.‎ B. Of course, there are also some special schools and classes that include only boys or girls.‎ C. If you have problems of this kind, here are some “dos and don’ts” for you to follow.‎ D. It is very natural for the boys and girls to make friends with each other.‎ E. As a result, early love should be forbidden by all the teachers and parents.‎ F. Don’t be too nervous or too shy.‎ G. Boys and girls at middle school are too young to carry the heavy duty of love.‎ 参考范文：36~40： CDFAG ‎ [七]‎ Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take the fact of friendship for granted, we often don't clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, 36 .      Moreover, a great many relationships come under the general term “friendship”. In all cases, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of closeness between them and the reasons for their interest in each other change greatly.       At the beginning, much depends on how people meet, and on good first impressions. As we get to know people, 37 . Although these factors are not of the greatest importance, it is more difficult to have a ‎ good relationship with people when there is a big difference in age and background. Then, 38 . Friends will stand closer together and will spend more time looking at each other than ordinary friends. Smiles and soft voices also express friendliness, and it is because they may give the wrong signals that shy people often have difficulty making friends. A friendly look with a wrong facial expression can turn into an unfriendly stare, and nervousness may be wrongly understood as unfriendliness.  Some relationships are a result of argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have the same ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests. The more closely involved people become, the more they depend on each other. And 39 . Equally, friends have to learn to make allowances for each other, to put up with annoying habits, and to accept differences in opinions.  In contrast with marriage,40 . But the support and understanding that results from shared experiences and affections does seem to create a close and lasting relationship. A. we are usually friends with only a few. B. many factors can affect friendship and relationship. C. people want to do friends favors and hate to let them down. D. argument and discussion can improve personal relationships. E. we consider things like age, race, looks, economic and social status, etc. F. there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the relationship between two people.‎ G. we pay attention to actual behavior, facial expression, and the way a person speaks.‎ 参考答案：36—40.

You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life.36 . ‎ Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they’ll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly. First of all , good talkers ask questions.37 .One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It’s a common question, but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions.38 .Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. 39 If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it’s time for you to change the subject. Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If you're saying goodbye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “I’ve really enjoyed meeting you.”40 . Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they’ve known you half their life. A. Real listening at least means some things.‎ 第一节 You can become a popular person.‎ C. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question.‎ D. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.‎ E. If you want to see that person again, don’t keep it a secret.‎ F. It’s polite to listen to others with a smile.‎ G. These people have something in common.‎ 参考范文：36-40：GCDAE ‎[九] ‎ We’ve all experienced peer pressure (同伴压力). It happens to everybody. However, people have different reactions. Confident people refuse to do things they don’t want to do, but shy and anxious people often give in. It may be because they want to be liked. It may be because they worry that their friends will make fun of them, or perhaps they’re just curious about trying something new. 36 ‎ It’s hard being the only one who says no and the question is：how do you do it? 37 If you think that missing maths, or smoking, or going somewhere you know your parents wouldn’t like is a bad idea then the answer is simple：don’t do it. It’s your decision. nobody else’s. You don’t need to be aggressive. You don’t need to shout and scream, but you must be confident and you must be firm. You need to say, “No thanks. I don’t want to do that.”‎ Being on your own against everybody else is very hard, so it can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who will say no too. 38 You want friends who will support you when you’re in trouble. You don’t want people who will always agree with the majority. Remember, the most popular people aren’t always the most trustworthy. ‎ ‎ 39 You can learn a lot from people your own age. They can teach you great football skills or the best way to do your maths homework. They can recommend music and advise you on fashion. And don’t forget you can tell them things too, and that always feels great. So, find friends who have similar interests. And remember, friendship isn’t about feeling depressed and guilty. 40 ‎ A. Choose your friends carefully. ‎ B. Firstly, you must decide what you believe.‎ C. It’s about sharing experiences and having fun. ‎ D. Of course, peer pressure isn’t completely bad.‎ E. It may be because they were all born to be stubborn. ‎ F. Depression and guilt will surely give you peer pressure.‎ G. Whatever the reason, some people end up doing things they really don’t want to. ‎ 参考答案：36-40 GBADC ‎ [十]‎ A gratitude journal is a great way to keep yourself in a positive state of mind. This article will offer some tips for starting and keeping one.‎ ‎◆ Make it a rule to write down things you are thankful for per day. 36 This will make writing the journal more challenging as time goes on, but that’s how your awareness and thankfulness will grow. You’ll find new things to be thankful for that you hardly noticed before.‎ ‎◆ Write about extended material things in your life. 37 For example, if you love to paint, you may be grateful for the paint that you have. Or, if you like music, you may be grateful for your CD collections.‎ ‎◆ 38 You can start by feeling grateful to be alive.
