Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank Note閱讀理解組塊專練練速度(限時：30分鐘).閱讀理解AWhen I was a boy we used to live across the road from a big hill with huge oak trees growing out of it.When winter arrived, thick and heavy snow would fall, and my two brothers would grab their sleds heading over to the hill for a day of fun.I remember watching them with envy because I was still too small to go sledding.Finally, one winter I was considered big enough and joined my brothers as they carried their sleds up the long hill and prepared to ride down it.The first few trips I rode with one of my brothers had the time of my life.It was so exhilarating when the wind whipped across my face as I flew down the hillside on the wooden sled.Near the end of the day I was too overjoyed when my oldest brother decided to let me try riding the sled all by myself.I climbed on it full of excitement and lay on my stomach.Then with one big push my brother sent me down the snowy hillside.I was doing pretty well too until I hit an old stump hidden by the snow and went off course, straight towards one of those big oak trees.My heart pounded in my chest and I could hear myself screaming.At the last possible second I rolled off and the sled crashed into the tree.I could hear my brothers running down the hill yelling, “You have to steer (操控)! You have to steer！”Sadly, that wasn't the last time I failed to steer when some obstacle knocked me off course in my life.Many times problems, troubles, and my own failures have sent me crashing into the trees of anger, frustration, and despair.I am still learning that life isn't always safe sledding.I am still learning that it is up to me to steer myself back to love, back to kindness, back to goodness, and back to God.Life is a trip, but no one ever said it was a smooth ride.Steer well then.Steer straight.Steer your soul towards the light and the love that are all meant for us.語篇解讀：作者小時候有一次滑雪時差點(diǎn)撞到橡樹上，但在最后一刻，作者翻滾到雪地里才得以化險為夷，同時他學(xué)到了一個人生道理：學(xué)會自我掌控。1What do we know about the author when he was very young?AHe lived on a big hill with huge oak trees on it.BHe was

Exercise for Weight LossAny 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._1_ 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._2_ 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 long­term comparison study of runners and walkers, calories burned through running led to 90% more weight loss than calories burned through walking.Running is time­efficient. 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._3_Running is convenient. Though many of us have accumulated a vast arsenal (武器，裝備) 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._4_ 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._5_ 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 morphine­like 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?ACultivate the good habit of running.BRunning works even when you're at rest.CYou will never stick to a habit if you don't like it.DThe first rule of exercising for weight loss is that if you don't enjoy it, you won't stick with it.EYou don't need any equipment beyond a pair of running shoes.FIf you're already a runner, keep on.GMost people can run two or three times as far as they can walk in a given amount of time.1選F根據(jù)下文的“If you're not a runner yet”可知這里是介紹如果你已經(jīng)開始跑步了，就繼續(xù)跑。故選F。2選B根據(jù)下文的“because your resting energy expenditure stays elevated(高的) after you run”可知，跑步后休息的時候，能量消耗也是高的，即：當(dāng)你休息的時候，跑步也有用。故選B。3選G根據(jù)上文的“running is a considerably faster way to burn those calories”可知，大部分人在所給的范圍跑步的距離是走路的三倍。故選G。4選E根據(jù)上文的“l(fā)ittle is actually required to go running”可知，除了一雙跑鞋，你什么都不需要。故選E。5選D根據(jù)下文的“Fortunately, studies support what many runners have experienced on an anecdotal level running can actually get you high.”可知跑步可以讓人情緒高，故D項減肥的第一規(guī)則是如果你不喜歡，你就不會堅持，符合語境。8
