課時(shí)提能練(三).閱讀理解A(2019·陜西檢測(cè))Whenever I hear a recording of John Denver singing“Sunshine on My Shoulders”，I find myself smiling，drawn to a love of the sun and the outdoors I've had for years as a Michigan native.Walking barefoot to the lake，playing without shirts in the sunlight，and breathing fresh air feel good.As a doctor I can tell you they are also good for your heart.Studies have found higher rates of high blood pressure among people with the lowest sun exposure.One reason may be due to nitric oxide(一氧化氮)，a gas whose function is activated when your skin is exposed to the sun's rays.It reduces both heart attack and stroke risks.Vitamin D，which sunlight helps your body produce，is also linked to better health.So walk outdoors for 15 to 30 minutes daily.In Japan，walking through forests to keep healthy has become a popular practice.Apparently they want to enjoy the fresh air.But research on 280 volunteers found that people had a reduced heart rate，and lower blood pressure when they walked through a forest than when they spent time in an urban area.One of the consequences of modern society is that rarely is our body in direct contact with the ground.The earth has an electrical current.Direct contact with it may be stabilizing force for good health.Although“earthing”or“grounding”is considered alternative by mainstream medicine，research shows that the practice seems to be able to reduce heart disease risks.So，walk around barefoot wherever possible，let your backyard grass tickle your feet，and dig your toes into sandy beaches.【語篇解讀】本文是一篇議論文。作者通過敘述自己的經(jīng)歷、感受和一些研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，告訴人們戶外活動(dòng)有益于心臟健康。1The first paragraph is meant to _Ashow the author likes the song very muchBput forward the argument of the

this worldbut it'll cost you $40 million.Then again，can you really put a price tag on having the time of your life？According to a new report from Popular Mechanics，Russia is looking to build a luxury hotel in outer space.There you will wake up to see a breathtaking blue planetthe earth！The hotel is expected to be stationed on the International Space Station(ISS)While space tourism itself isn't exactly a novel idea，the notion of building a hotel out there hasn't been raised before.Really，other companies are still focused on the transportation part of the_puzzleafter all，a trip to space is enough for most folks.According to Popular Mechanics，the hotel will include a luxury orbital suite with big windows，personal hygiene(衛(wèi)生) facilities，exercise equipment，and yes，WiFi.Because if you can't share your experience on social media，did it really even happen?Of course，the reasons behind the hotel aren't just for fun and games.Apparently，space tourism might be able to help the Russians pay for another module to add to the International Space Station.Russian space contractor RKK Energia is currently building the first such module，which will give scientists a laboratory and power supply station from which to conduct tests.If any of this is going to happen，however，Russia is going to have to hurry.With the ISS expected to be out of use in 2028，there's little time to build the hotel and find wealthy tourists to actually pay for a trip into outer space.So if you've recently come into a fortune and are interested in investing in what could be the time of your life，ISS is calling your name.【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文，主要介紹了太空旅游項(xiàng)目。5What do we know about the hotel from the first paragraph?AIt is quite affordable.BIt will be built in Russia.CIt will offer an amazing view.DIt costs $40 million to build.C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的“There you will wake up to see a breathtaking blue planetthe earth”可知，在這個(gè)旅館你可以看到令人驚嘆的藍(lán)色星球地球，故這個(gè)旅館會(huì)提供令人驚嘆的景色，故選C項(xiàng)。6What

BSpace tourism.CSpace exploration.DA creative idea.B詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第二段中的“While space tourism itself isn't exactly a novel idea”及“after all，a trip to space is enough for most

each day.CSpace travel is not possible without the Internet.DTourists tend to share traveling experiences online.D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Because if you can't share your experience on social media，did it really even happen”可知，如果你不能在社交媒體上分享你的太空旅行經(jīng)歷，你就像沒來過一樣，因此可以推斷游客會(huì)在網(wǎng)上分享旅行經(jīng)歷，故選D項(xiàng)。8The hotel will be built to provide Russian scientists with _Afun and games Bfinancial supportCspace contractors Dmore time in spaceB細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的“Apparently，space tourism might be able to help the Russians pay for another module to add to the International Space
