He said: " 【3】 the unwillingness to shower is a barrier(障碍)to playing sport, we need to do something to promote activity at schools."
【4】 , the BBC says the study did not look at the exact reasons 【5】 students do not shower. Maybe there are some other reasons. Undressing in front of 【6】 may be too much for some children.

试题分析:本文主要讲了,研究发现超过一半的高中男生和女生在运动之后不洗澡,因此人们对此进行研究并且就此带来的不良影响进行分析。
【1】由文章可知高中生在做完运动后不洗澡,因此研究者表明学生们不想要流汗和洗澡,流汗和洗澡之间是并列递进的关系,所以用并列连词。句意是研究者表明学生不想要流汗和洗澡,所以他们不怎么活跃,故填and/or 。
【2】由于be surprised at sth(对什么感到惊讶)是固定的词组搭配,此句的意思是他对于学生们竟然洗澡如此稀少感到很惊讶,故填at。
【3】由于前句的意思是不想洗澡的意愿是运动的障碍,后句的意思是我们需要在学校做一些事来提升活动质量。从这两句话可以推断出这两句可以是条件关系也可以是因果关系,故填 If/Since/Because/As。
【4】由后面的BBC认为之前的研究者并没有找出学生不洗澡的确切原因,可见他们并不赞同那些研究者的意见,所以这两段是转折关系,故填however。
【5】由该空前面的词reason(理由)可以推断出这里面应该是说为什么学生不洗澡,所以用why表示原因,句意为BBC认为这个研究没有找到学生为什么不洗澡的确切原因,故填why。
【6】由于是在学校做完运动后洗澡,所以大家都是在澡堂一起洗的,因此大家在洗澡时都没有穿衣服,由此可以推断出是在其他人面前没有穿衣服也许对于学生来说意味重大。故填others。
【7】这里是考查固定的词组搭配,play a role in sth(在什么中扮演角色,起重大作用),该句的意思为她说学校在改变孩子们的态度上扮演着重要的角色,起着很大的作用。故填a。
【8】由于后面是they need to shower after(之后他们需要洗澡),因此是让他们知道,因为let,所以后面要用宾格,句意为她说学校应该鼓励学生做体育运动,并且让他们知道他们运动之后需要洗澡。故填them。

【题目】When Jeff Sparkman draws his cartoon superheroes with colored pencils, he often has to ask other people to tell him what color his masked men turned out to be because he's color-blind. Now, a new smart phone application (app) can help him figure out what colors he's using and how the picture looks to most everyone else.
The DanKam app, available for iPhone and Android for $2.99, is an application that turns the vague colors that one percent of the population with color-blindness sees into the "true" colors as everyone else sees them. In America, an estimated 32 million color-blind Americans—95% are males—can soon have their life improved.
“DanKam takes the stream of data coming in through the phone's camera and changes the colors slightly so they fall within the range that people who are color-blind see,”developer Dan Kaminsky told CNET. He came up with the idea after watching the 2009 film Star Trek with a color-blind friend.
It was then that he got to know more about colorblindness like its varying types and degrees. A vast majority, for instance, have trouble seeing red or green due to a genetic defect(遗传缺陷). Blue-yellow colorblindness, however, is rarer and develops later in life because of aging, illness or head injuries, etc. He started experimenting with one of the most common representations of points in the RGB color model. What the DanKam app attempts to do is to clean up the color space of the image or video signal so that colors can be visible to those suffering from viewing problems. “You can adjust the app to fit your needs. There is a range and not everyone who is color-blind sees things the same.” Says Kaminsky.
Sparkman, a copy editor at CNET, tried out the app and was pleased with the results. "It would be useful for dressing for a job interview," he said. But using it for his art is “the most practical application." It worked well on LED and other lights on electronic gadgets, which means Sparkman can now identify the power light on his computer display as green.
【1】According to the first two paragraphs, we can know that DanKam ___________.
A. is designed to help people with colorblindness
B. can turn vague colors into real ones
C. is a phone used to help drawing pictures
D. appeared in the movie Star Trek
【2】How does DanKam’s app work?
A. It puts LED and other lights on electronic gadgets.
B. It shows common representations of points in the RGB color model
C. It checks color-blind people’s types of degrees of colorblindness.
D. It changes the colors so that color-blind people can see them.
【3】It can be inferred from the passage that colorblindness __________.
A. cannot be cured by any methods
B. is not necessarily inborn disease
C. is more commonly seen in women
D. makes people unable to tell any colors
【4】The underlined word visible in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _________.
A. recognizable B. enjoyable
C. adjustable D. Portable
【5】Which of the following is NOT included in the things that DanKam helps Sparkman with?
A. Choosing clothes.
B. Playing computer games
C. Drawing his pictures.
D. Handling electronic gadgets.

【题目】Coffee is one of the most popular drinks throughout the world today. In fact, according to some estimates, over 30% of all adults in the world drink coffee at least once a day on the average. Coffee contains a kind of drug called caffeine. Caffeine is a chemical that stimulates (刺激) the nerves of the body. Drinking coffee tends to make people a little bit more awake―at least for a short time―because of this stimulating effect on the nervous system. A cup of coffee has, on the average, about 3% caffeine in it.
One story of the discovery of the coffee plant relates to this effect of caffeine. According to the story, coffee was discovered in East Africa. The story says that coffee was first found by a goat farmer named Kaldi. This was about the year 850. Kaldi was leading his animals through the mountains and the goats were stopping repeatedly to eat the plants near the path. Suddenly, some of the goats started jumping up and down in a very strange way. Kaldi figured out that the goats were acting this way because of the plants they were eating. Kaldi himself tried eating some of the green beans (豆荚) that the goats had been eating. He, too, felt the stimulating effect of the beans. Kaldi wanted to prove what had happened, so he picked some of the beans and took them back to the village, where he told his story.
The green bean got the name "Kaffa" and later "coffee" because the beans were discovered in a /span>place called Kaffa in Africa. Then for years, people used to eat a few of the green Kaffa beans when they were in the mountains and needed extra energy to do their work. It was later found that the coffee beans could be picked and then dried until they turned brown, and then they could be stored. If the beans were dried and stored, they could be used at any time.
【1】What is the purpose of drinking coffee?
A. To become more awake. B. To become more healthy.
C. To become more happy. D. To become more clever.
【2】How did the goats react after eating the plants?
A. They fell asleep.
B. They could not find their way home.
C. They started jumping up and down.
D. They wanted to eat more.
【3】Why did the green bean get the name "Kaffa"?
A. Because Kaldi loved his home village very much.
B. Because Kaldi's goats loved the green bean very much.
C. Because the beans were discovered in a place by this name.
D. Because the beans could be picked and dried.
