【导语】本文是一篇说明文。运动的真正的目的包括锻炼、娱乐和学习重要的社交技能，比如体育精神。本文剖析了体育精神的表现方式，以及良好的体育精神的重要性和意义，因此家长和教练的言传身教很重要。
1．上文“Good sportsmanship is all about respect. Good sports (有体育精神的人) respect their teammates and also their opponents. They respect their coaches, and they also respect the referees or other officials involved in their games. (良好的体育精神在于尊重。有体育精神的人尊重他们的队友也尊重他们的对手。他们尊重自己的教练，也尊重裁判或参与比赛的其他官员)”，后文“They shout at their teammates and they talk back to coaches or referees. (他们对他们的队友大喊大叫，和教练或裁判顶嘴)”，与设空处前的表述行为相反，因而设空处应有转折含义，B项“However, bad sportsmanship is all about disrespect. (然而，糟糕的体育精神都是关于不尊重的)”其中的However表转折，下文是对disrespect行为的具体描述。故选B项。
2．根据上文“Kids usually learm good and bad sportsmanship from the adults in their lives. (孩子们通常从他们生活中的成年人那里学到好的和坏的体育精神。)”可知，此段将谈及成年人对身边的孩子们的体育精神的影响，下文“If parents and coaches show disrespect for other fans, referees, or each other, kids will likely act the same way on the field. (如果父母和教练对其他球迷、裁判或彼此表现出不尊重，孩子们在运动场上也可能会表现出同样的行为。)”，此处提到的是孩子们就是父母和教练的一面镜子，反映出了他们的行为；C项“Players’ parents and coaches set examples that kids tend to follow. (运动员的父母和教练为孩子们树立了榜样)”，下文是对C项的进一步详细说明，且其中的parents and coaches也与C项中内容呼应，上下文衔接连贯顺畅。故选C项。
3．根据后文“Some of them are very basic and easy to do, like shaking hands with other players before a game. Other examples may take a little more courage, such as acknowledging a great play made by the opposing team. (其中一些是非常基本和容易做的，比如在比赛前和其他球员握手。其他的例子可能需要更多的勇气，比如承认对方球队的出色表现。)”可知，此处列举好的体育精神的表现方式，其中的Some of them，Other examples与A项的in many ways呼应，上下文衔接连贯顺畅。故选A项。
4．根据前文“Learning good sportsmanship is important because it helps you develop an attitude of graciousness (礼貌) and respect that will carry over into all the other areas of your life. (学习良好的体育精神很重要，因为它可以帮助你培养一种礼貌态度和尊重，这将延续到你生活的所有其他领域。)”可知，良好的体育精神对生活中其他方面也有影响，F项“Being a good sport in the classroom will eventually lead to being a good sport in the workplace. (在课堂上做个有风度的人，最终也会让你在职场中做个有风度的人)”，in the classroom为复现词，F项承接上句，句意衔接连贯顺畅。故选F项。
5．上文“So be a good sport in whatever you do! (所以无论做什么都要有风度！)”，下文“When others see you acting in a way that makes it clear that winning isn’t the most important thing, you can move on to focusing on the important things, like having fun, getting exercise, and improving your skills. (当别人看到你的表现就会清楚，获胜不是最重要的事情时，你可以把注意力集中在重要的事情上，比如娱乐、锻炼和提高技能)”可知，好的体育精神会影响到其他人。E项“The example you set can be a powerful teaching tool for others. (你为他人树立的榜样可以成为有力的教学工具。)”，others为复现词，E项与上文为因果关系，因为你体现了良好的体育精神，你就为他人树立了良好的榜样，下文则是对E项的进一步阐述，语意连贯顺畅。故选G项。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了“smart”这个词的多种含义。
6．根据上文“Is it a good thing or something bad ”（是好事还是坏事呢？）下文“This is because the word smart has many meanings.”（这是因为聪明这个词有很多意义）”可知，空处并非回答前文的问题，因此横线处是一个过渡句，承上启下，既没有准确回答前面的问题，又引出下文，即这个问题不好回答。选项B.“答案并不像你想象的那么简单。”符合题意，故选B。
7．根据上文“Or if a friend says something that hurts your feelings,you can say you are smarting from the hurtful comments.（或者，如果一个朋友说了一些伤害你感情的话，你可以说你是从有伤害的评论中变聪明的。）”可知，受了伤害变聪明后，下次可能不会给别人伤害自己的机会，即不与那人继续做朋友。选项D.“事实上，也许那个人不再是你的朋友了。”符合题意，故选D。
8．根据下句“If someone is smart as whip, they are able to think very quickly.（如果有人像鞭子一样聪明，他们能够很快思考）”可知，此段先介绍smart刺痛的含义，然后介绍聪明的含义，等同于intelligent。前后是转折关系，选项E.“但是“smart”最常见的意思是聪明。”选项E中有转折词。故选E。
9．根据下文“Some people are considered street smart.（有些人被认为是街头智者）”及“Other people might be book smart.（其他人可能是书呆子。）”可知，此段介绍了不同的人有不同方式的聪明。选项F.“然而，不同的人有不同的聪明方式。”引出了下文的两种智者的方式，符合题意，故选F。
10．根据上文““Don’t get smart with me!”Here,“smart”means to show a lack of respect by saying something unkind.This definition of smart can also be used as a verb.(“不要跟我耍聪明！”在这里，“聪明”意味着说一些不客气的事实而表现出缺乏尊重。聪明的这个含义也可以用作一个动词。)”可知，smart有自作聪明的意思，但自作聪明的结果往往是尴尬的，有可能聪明反被聪明误，给自己带来不快。选项G.“如果你对不恰当的人无礼，他们可能会打你的脸。”，短语：smart off to sb.“你对某人说出一些粗鄙的言论，显得不敬”，承接上文，讲述了自作聪明带来的结果，该作动用法的词为词是且符合题意。故选G。

(每当眼镜起雾时，摘下眼镜把它擦干净不仅令人沮丧，还会增加感染的风险。)”说明戴口罩使眼镜起雾所带来的问题；下文“Here are some tricks to stop it.(这里有一些技巧可以阻止它。)”指出有些技巧可以防止眼镜起雾；D选项“So the key is to prevent or minimize fogging due to face masks.(因此，关键是防止或尽量减少口罩造成的雾气。)”起到承上启下的作用，“the key”指出上文中问题的解决方法，“fogging due to face masks”是下文“it”所指代的内容。故选D。
22．根据上文“This is great for stopping fogging because it redirects your breath by putting slight downward pressure on the top part of the mask.”(这对防止起雾非常好，因为它通过在口罩顶部施加轻微的向下压力来改变你呼出的气体的方向。) 阐述了“Twist your mask strings.(扭扭你的口罩绳)”所起到的防止起雾的作用以及原理；下文“This may leave you infected by virus.(这可能会让你被病毒感染)”说明可能会出现的问题，所以设空处应填与上文表示转折关系，同时又承接下文的句子，F选项“However, it’s worth noting that it does create a slight gap between the mask and your face.(然而，值得注意的是，它确实会在口罩和你的脸之间产生一个微小的间隙)”符合语意，故选F。

Put your glasses in it and let it air dry.(用一种无香味的肥皂和温水混合。把你的眼镜放进去，让它风干。)”可推断出下文应该是用肥皂洗眼镜的结果。所以B选项“When you wear your glasses next, soap molecules on your lenses should block fogging. (当你下次戴眼镜时，镜片上的肥皂分子应该可以防止起雾。)”紧扣上文题意，故选B。
24．上文“Put a tissue under the top part of the mask.(你可以在口罩的上部垫上一张纸巾)”阐述了纸巾的用法，G选项“It will help catch air and damp, keeping your glasses free of fog.(它将有助于吸收空气和潮湿，使您的眼镜没有雾)”承接上文，阐述了在口罩上部垫上纸巾是如何防止眼镜起雾的，符合语意，故选G。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了豪华野营的由来，以及选择参加豪华野营的原因。
56．根据前句“However, camping also means dealing with bugs, bad weather and few, if any, toilets.(然而，露营也意味着要应对虫子、恶劣的天气和很少的厕所（如果有的话）。)”可知，这些麻烦会使人们打消尝试野营的念头，C选项“These troubles can discourage people from ever trying camping.(这些麻烦会使人们对野营望而却步。)”中的These troubles指代前句中野营中的各种各样的麻烦，说明了这些麻烦会使人打消野营的念头，因此C选项承接上文，符合语境，故选C。
57．根据前句“Glamping, a combination of the words glamorous (有魅力的) and camping, is a fairly new word.(Glamping是Glamping和camping两个词的合成词，是一个相当新的词汇。)”和后句“Since around 600 B.C. Nomadic Mongolians have enjoyed the benefits of glamping.(大约从公元前600年起，游牧的蒙古人就开始享受豪华野营的好处。)”可知，豪华野营描述的是一项人们已经做了很长时间的活动，D选项“But it describes an activity that people have been doing for ages.(但它描述的是一种人们多年来一直在做的活动。)”中的it指代前句中的glamping，说明了野营是人们已经做了很多年的活动，因此D选项承上启下，符合语境。故选D。
58．根据前句“One of them is that glamping gives you access to some wonderful places.(其中之一就是豪华野营可以让你进入一些很棒的地方。)”和后句“Nowadays, glamping can be less expensive than staying in a hotel. But you can still enjoy the modern comforts of a hotel!(如今，豪华野营可能比住酒店更便宜。但你仍然可以享受现代酒店的舒适！)”可知，豪华野营既可以欣赏美丽的地方，又可以住舒适的酒店，A选项“You don’t have to give up beauty for comfort!(你不必为了舒适而放弃美丽！)”说明了舒适和美丽是可以兼得的，因此A选项承上启下，符合语境，故选A。
59．根据上一段“One of them is that glamping gives you access to some wonderful places.(其中之一就是豪华野营可以让你进入一些很棒的地方。)”介绍豪华野营的其中的一个原因可知，这里介绍豪华野营的另一个原因。根据后句“Glampsites often make generous use of eco-friendly materials and avoid using much plastic.(豪华旅游胜地通常会大量使用环保材料，避免使用大量塑料。)”可知，去豪华野营的另一个原因是它对环境有好处，E选项“Another reason to go glamping is that it’s good for the environment.(豪华野营的另一个原因是它对环境有好处。)”说明了去豪华野营的另一个原因是对环境有好处，因此E选项引起下文，符合语境。故选E。
60．根据本段的中心句“No matter what kind of experience you’re looking for, a glampsite exists for you.(无论你在寻找什么样的体验，glampsite都为你而存在。)”以及后面的所举豪华野营的地点和活动例子可知，世界各地都有各式各样的豪华野营可以体验，F选项“A wide variety of glamping experiences are available all over the world.(世界各地都有各种各样的豪华野营体验。)”说明了世界各地都有豪华野营可以体验，因此F选项承接上文，符合语境。故选F。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了在城市里散步和在公园里散步不一样并通过研究讲述其原因。
61．根据文中第一句“Walking in the city is very different from walking in the park.(在城市里散步和在公园里散步很不一样)”提到城里散步不同于公园散步；紧接着阐明城里散步的研究结果“A small psychology study suggests urban environments can slow your step and possibly increase your mental load.(一项小型心理学研究表明，城市环境会放慢你的脚步，并可能增加你的精神负荷)”那么接下来应是对在“自然中散步”的情况进行对比。因此B项“而在大自然中散步则恰恰相反”符合题意。故选B。
62．根据第三段第一句“The first of the two experiments in the new study focused on people’s way of walking and cognitive load.(这项新研究的两个实验中的第一个集中在人们的走路方式和认知负荷上)”可知设空处需要一个概括这个实验的句子，因此E项“该研究包括两个实验，采用两种不同的方法”符合上下文语境，承接上文“ The findings show that natural settings may potentially reduce cognitive (认知的) tiredness and improve reaction time straight away.(调查发现表明，自然环境可能会减少认知疲劳，并直接提高反应时间)”，the study呼应上文的the findings。故选E。
63．根据此段对第一个实验的描述，特别是“During this trial, participants were fitted with sensors and a dozen motion control cameras were set up to watch them repeatedly walk down a l5-metre room at their natural speed.(在这次试验中，参与者被安装了传感器和十几个运动控制摄像头，观察他们以自然速度重复走下一个15米高的房间)”，以及空后句中的“people reported that they felt more uncomfortable(人们报告说他们感觉更不舒服)”可知，参与者被要求报告他们在两种环境下不舒适度的感受，因此D “在每个实验后参与者被要求评估他们的不舒适）”符合上下文语境，故选D。
64．根据第三段段首“The first of the two experiments in the new study focused on people's way of walking and cognitive load.(这项新研究的两个实验中的第一个集中在人们的走路方式和认知负荷上)”对两个实验的提及，可以推断出这里讲的是第二个实验。由此可知F项“第二种实验是深入研究一些更高层次的认知过程”符合题意，“higher-level cognitive”是解题的关键字眼，和第一个实验形成递进关系，故选F。
65．上文“the team found results to support their idea. In urban environments, participants were slower in distinguishing between simple shapes. (研究小组发现了支持他们观点的结果。在城市环境中，参与者辨别简单形状的速度较慢。)”是对参与者在两种环境下散步产生差异性的分析，由此推知，空处可能陈述原因。因此G项“原因是城巿环境更容易让人分心。”分析了原因，符合上下文语境，下文“Our brains take longer to process. (我们的大脑需要更长的时间来处理。)”进一步阐述原因。故选G。

66．上文“Feeling out of control, unsure of what you are supposed to be doing or how you are supposed to do it can all result in feeling stressed.”(感觉失去控制，不确定你应该做什么，或者你应该怎么做，都会导致感觉有压力。)引出话题，提到学校压力。
