Long long ago, there was a small village. This village had a 36 tradition. At the beginning of every year, any boy who had reached the age of 18 was given land and money to build a home. The boy had to 37 his home before winter. If his home failed to endure the cold weather in winter, the villagers could not 38 him in any way.
One 39 , Paul and Marc reached their 18. They 40 their land and money and decided to search nearby villages for ideas on building their homes. In each village, they found the nicest 41 and talked to the owners. Each owner gladly offered 42 .
After Marc saw several homes, he 43 the best ideas and went back to his own land. Paul, 44 , continued collecting more ideas. Soon he had so many great ideas that he began to 45 some of them. But he always believed he could find even better ideas in the next village.
Marc began building his home. He had several false starts, 46 his home gradually rose from his land. By fall, Marc had finished his home. It wasn't perfect, but it was strong and he could 47 it later. Paul enjoyed all the beautiful homes and 48 with home owners. The first snow came and Paul, realizing he was running out of time, 49 back to his land. He built the best home he could in the time he had, but it was 50 . The first winter storm destroyed his home and he froze to 51 . The villagers mourned for him.
Marc 52 the winter. Each year, Marc searched for other good ideas he could use to make his own home look better. He became a leader in the village, 53 a family, and lived a happy, content life.
We all build and improve our own mental homes. It’s 54 and fun for us to search for ideas from other mental home owners, but we only improve our own mental home if we actually 55 the best ideas.

解析試題分析：本文講述了很久以前，有個(gè)小村莊，有個(gè)奇怪的傳統(tǒng)，男孩到了18歲，在那年年初就給他一些錢和土地，讓他自己在那年冬天以前蓋好房子，任何人不能幫他，結(jié)果有一年Marc和 Paul成年了。他們就去各村去走訪征求大家的蓋房的意見，Marc在走訪了一些村民，有了自己的想法，就回去蓋房去了，而Paul還是繼續(xù)走訪收集資料，可是當(dāng)他看到時(shí)間不多了，就急匆匆地把房蓋好了，可是第一場(chǎng)雪就把他的房子給毀了，他被凍死了，而Marc后來成了村里的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。通過這個(gè)故事告訴我們，無論是精神世界還是物質(zhì)世界，一些想法的尋找是簡(jiǎn)單的，但是想法的運(yùn)用卻是另外一回事。
【小題1】考查形容詞辨析。由下文對(duì)這個(gè)傳統(tǒng)的描述來看，這個(gè)傳統(tǒng)很獨(dú)特，所以四個(gè)詞中只有strange (奇怪的)符合語(yǔ)境。語(yǔ)境為：很久很久以前，有一個(gè)小村莊有著一個(gè)奇怪的傳統(tǒng)。每到年初，已成年的男孩就會(huì)拿到一塊地和資金(自己動(dòng)手)去修建自己的房屋。hopeful 有希望的；literary 文藝的，書本的；cultural文化的。故選B。
【小題2】考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。這里指的是在冬天到來前就要完成房屋的修建,所以用complete，意思是：完成。倒數(shù)第三段 “By fall, Marc had finished his home．”中有同義詞復(fù)現(xiàn)：finish。故選D。
【小題3】考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。 倒數(shù)第三段“The first winter storm destroyed his home and he froze to 51 ．The villagers mourned for him．”告訴我們，由于Paul修建的房子不好，被凍死了，人們都來哀悼他，但沒有幫助他度過寒冬，由此可以看出，在這一奇怪的傳統(tǒng)中，別人是不能提供幫助的，所以選help。故選B。
【小題4】考查據(jù)語(yǔ)境選詞。上一段告訴我們，成年的男孩是在每年的年初(At the beginning of every year)拿到一塊地和資金的，四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有spring(春天)符合境。故選C。
【小題5】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。對(duì)應(yīng)第一段提到的was given，所以這里選receive意思是：收到。exchange 交換；recognize 認(rèn)出，承認(rèn)；advise 建議，忠告。故選A。
【小題6】考查據(jù)語(yǔ)境選詞。前文告訴我們，他們要建的是房子，這是在外出考察，自然是找最好的房子和房主交談以獲得如何建好房子的建議。文中有多處同義詞home的復(fù)現(xiàn)。故選D。
【小題7】考查名詞詞義辨析。每一位房主都很樂意提供給他們(關(guān)于如何建好房子的)建議。所以選advice。可以從“Soon he had so many great ideas that he began to 45 some of them．”中的idea得到啟示。故選C。
【小題8】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。Marc 參觀了幾棟房子，把房主們提供的建議搜集起來，所以選gather。意思是：搜集。44空后的“continued collecting more ideas”有同義詞復(fù)現(xiàn)。expect 期待，預(yù)料；create 創(chuàng)造；understand理解。故選A。
【小題9】考查副詞辨析。考查動(dòng)詞辨析。Mar開始建房，而Paul卻仍在繼續(xù)搜集如何建房的建議，兩者之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，所以用however。故選D。
【小題10】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。由于搜集的好的修建房屋的方法太多了，以至于都忘了一部分，所以用forget。 believe 認(rèn)為，相信；replace代替；doubt懷疑。故選B。
【小題11】考查連詞辨析。“He had several false starts”和“his home gradually rose from his land”之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，所以用but。故選D。
【小題12】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。倒數(shù)第二段 “Each year, Marc searched for other good ideas he could use to make his own home look better．”中的make his own home look better，說的就是他所修的房子可以在建成后隨時(shí)改良，所以用improve。repair 修理、修補(bǔ)；rebuild重建；sell賣。故選C。
【小題13】考查名詞辨析。第二段的“In each village, they found the nicest 41 and talked to the owners．”可知，應(yīng)該選conversations，意思是：談話、會(huì)話。故選B。
【小題14】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。冬天來了，第一場(chǎng)雪使Paul意識(shí)到建房子所剩的時(shí)間不多了，所以自己便急匆匆地往回趕，所以選rush，意思是：沖、奔，急匆匆的趕。故選A。
【小題15】考查形容詞辨析。由后面的“The first winter storm destroyed his home”可以看出，由于動(dòng)工時(shí)間較晚，時(shí)間緊，他修的房子不牢固，所以選weak，意思是：不牢固的。Funny滑稽的；small小的；amazing令人吃驚的。故選B。
【小題16】考查名詞辨析。下一句“The villagers mourned for him”告訴我們，村民們都去哀悼他，由此可知他被凍死了，所以選death。故選A。
【小題17】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。這里指的是Marc由于修好了房子，順利渡過了冬天，所以用survive，意思是：從困境中挺過來。故選D。
【小題18】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。raise 養(yǎng)育。句意為：(后來)他成了村里的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)，養(yǎng)育了一家人，幸福滿意的生活著。如果把 A 項(xiàng)后加上up，也是正確的。故選C。
【小題19】考查形容詞辨析。上面的故事告訴我們，建議和想法的尋找是簡(jiǎn)單的，而實(shí)踐才是困難的，所以選easy。故選A。
【小題20】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。這里指的是最好的想法的“應(yīng)用”，所以選apply。故選C。
考點(diǎn)：這是故事類的文章。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：一般情況下完形填空題語(yǔ)篇的第一句話和最后一句話都是完整的。針對(duì)這個(gè)特點(diǎn)，考生應(yīng)該重點(diǎn)閱讀這一頭一尾的兩個(gè)句子。快速閱讀全文，掌握全文的大意和主題。
在閱讀全文時(shí)千萬(wàn)不要急于看文章后每個(gè)題目的選項(xiàng)，應(yīng)該對(duì)空格所在的上下文仔細(xì)閱讀，預(yù)測(cè)可能出現(xiàn)的答案。
對(duì)于難以確定答案的題，要根據(jù)上下文語(yǔ)境，運(yùn)用語(yǔ)法和詞匯知識(shí)，反復(fù)推敲以求得解答。對(duì)于同義詞和近義詞的選項(xiàng)，在充分考慮到上下文具體語(yǔ)境下特別注意這些同義詞和近義詞搭配。
完成全部問題后應(yīng)該將答案帶入文章再通讀全文，核查答案是否合適、正確、盡量少出錯(cuò)誤。

Sitting too much is now listed with
smoking and junk food as a bad habit that increases your risk of heart disease.
New Australian research shows that half-an-hour in the gym will not make up for the waist-expanding damage caused by spending the rest of the day sitting.
But the good news is that doing chores (家務(wù)雜事) in the house or gently walking around the office while on the phone might be enough to keep you fit.
The study joins the growing body of evidence suggesting too much sitting might undo the benefits of exercise.
The study measured the intensity (強(qiáng)度) of physical activities in 168 subjects over seven days. It found that, regardless of how much exercise they did or their total sitting time, those who took more breaks from sitting had lower risk of thick waists and lower levels of blood lipids (脂質(zhì)).
“Higher levels of blood lipids have been linked to a heightened risk of heart disease,” principal researcher Genevieve Healy of the University of Queensland said. “What the study shows is that there are benefits in just getting up regularly and interrupting your sitting time.”
Researchers behind the Stand Up Australia project have written to the Rudd Government requesting $3.5 million for a two-year study into how long sitting affects health and productivity of workers. The study would also develop and test strategies for reducing sitting time on the job.
The latest study builds on work that is shifting the health promotion focus from purposeful exercise, such as running, to lower intensity activities throughout the day.
The Australian research has been backed up by US studies.
“To hold a body that weighs 77 kilograms upright takes a fair amount of energy from muscles,” said Professor Marc Hamilton from the University of Missouri. “There is a large amount of energy associated with standing every day that cannot be easily replaced by 30 to 60 minutes in the gym.”
56.The study shows that .
A. exercising for 30 minutes in the gym is good after sitting too long
B. walking is the best physical activity after sitting too long
C. sitting too long in the office causes the waist to expand
D. having breaks from sitting is good for your health
57.What’s the aim of the Stand Up Australia project?
A. To develop and test strategies for reducing working time.
B. To study the reasons for the longer sitting time in the office.
C. To develop and test strategies for reducing sitting time at work.
D. To study the factors influencing productivity of workers.
58.The purpose of the last paragraph is to .
A. provide a scientific basis for the benefits of standing up
B. compare the effect of standing with exercising in the gym
C. report the new research findings of Professor Marc Hamilton
D. figure out the amount of energy associated with daily standing
59.The health promotion focus used to be on .
A. purposeful exercise B. running
C. lower intensity activities D. long sitting
60.What’s the best title for the text?
A. Exercise in the Gym Is Out B. Your Office Chair Is Killing You
C. A Cause of Heart Disease D. Good News for Workers

Thousands of people in the world are a hundred years old－or more and certain parts of the world are famous for the long lives of their inhabitants: the Vilacamba Valley in Ecuador, and the home of the Hunzas in the Himalayas．
Why do so many people live to a healthy old age in certain parts of the world? What is the secret of their long lives? Three things seem to be very important: fresh air, fresh food and a simple way of life．People work near their homes in the clean,
mountain air instead of travelling long distances to work by bus, car or train．They do not sit all day in busy offices or factories, but work hard outdoors in the fields．They take more exercise and eat less food than people in the cities of the West．For years the Hunzas of the Himalayas did not need policemen, lawyers or doctors．There was no crime, no divorce and not much illness in their society． They were a happy, peaceful people, famous all over India for their long, healthy lives．
Do you want to live to a hundred years old? Here are some rules for success．Firstly, choose your parents and grandparents carefully．If they lived or live to a good old age, so will you．Secondly, live in the right place．Thirdly, choose the right
kind of job．Doctors, dentists and bus-drivers die young．Farmers, priests and orchestral conductors live much longer．If you are in the wrong kind of job, you can still improve your way of life．
An old man in the Caucasus was talking about his past life．"I was young then," he said, as he described his 87th year．His secret was: "Think young and stay young．" An old woman from Missouri, USA, gave this advice, "Drink a little whisky and some warm beer every day．" An English lady just said, "Take a cold bath every morning．" The shortest, simplest piece of advice came from Mr．Jim Chapman, aged 103．"Just keep breathing," he told reporters．
67．Who is most likely to live a long life?
A．A doctor． B．A bus-driver．
C．A dentist． D．An orchestral conductor．
68．We can see from the passage that long-lived people avoid ____．
A．working hard B．drinking
C．eating too much D．taking cold baths
69．The passage indicates that we can change our _____to live a long life．
A．jobs B．places of living
C．ways of living D．ways of thinking
70．What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph?
A．Whose advice is the best．
B．Who is the most long-lived person in the world．
C．Lifestyles of long-lived people．
D．How long-lived people think of' their life．
