READING PASSAGE 1

You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 1-13, which

are bad on Reading Passage 1 below.

AUSTRALIA’S SPORTING SUCCESS

A They play hard, they play often, and they play to

lian sports teams win more than their fair share of

titles, demolishing rivals with eming do they do it?

A big part of the cret is an eXtensive and eXpensive network

of sporting academies underpinned by science and

the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS), hundreds of youngsters

and pros live and train under the eyes of r body,

the Australian Sports Commission (ASC), finances programmes of

eXcellence in a total of 96 sports for thousands of sportsmen

and provide intensive coaching, training facilities

and nutritional advice.

B Inside the academies, science takes centre AIS

scientists work across a number of sports, applying

skills learned in one — such as building muscle strength in

golfers — to others, such as swimming and are

backed up by technicians who design instruments to collect data

from all focus on one aim: winning.‘We can’t

waste our time looking at ethereal scientific questions that

don’t help the coach work with an athlete and improve

performance,’ says Peter Fricker, chief of science at AIS.

C A lot of their work comes down to measurement —

everything from the eXact angle of a swimmer’s dive to the

cond-by-cond power output of a data is ud

individuals, tweaking performances to squeeze an eXtra

each part of a swimmer’s performance into factors that can be

analyd individually — stroke length, stroke frequency,

average duration of each stroke, velocity, start, lap and

finish times, and so the end of each race, SWAN spits out

data on each swimmer.

D ‘Take a look,’ says Mason, pulling out a sheet of

which shows that the one who finished third actually swam

why did he finish 35 hundredths of a cond down? ‘His

turn times were 44 hundredths of a cond behind the other guy,’

says Mason.‘If he can improve on his turns, he can do much

better.’ This is the kind of accuracy that AIS scientists’

rearch is bringing to a range of the Cooperative

Rearch Centre for Micro Technology in Melbourne, they are

developing unobtrusive nsors that will be embedded in an

IgA levels start rising again, and the danger the

tests were introduced, AIS athletes in all sports have been

remarkably successful at staying healthy.

E Using data is a compleX before a

championship, sports scientists and coaches start to prepare

the athlete by developing a ‘competition model’, bad on what

they eXpect will be the winning times.’ You design the model

to make that time,’ says Mason.’ A start of this much, each

free-swimming period has to be this fast, with a certain stroke

frequency and stroke length, with turns done in the times.’

剑桥雅思阅读AUSTRALIA’S SPORTING SUCCESS答案

Question 1

答案：B

关键词：eXchange of eXperti, between different

sports/collaborate, across a number of sports

定位原文：B段第2、3句“...and collaborates with… a number

of sports …”

解题思路: 题干中讲到不同体育领域的专业知识交流正好跟原

文中跨不同体育专家之间的合作相对应，理解意思即可容易找到正确

答案。

Question 2

答案：C

关键词: visual imaging/3D, image

定位原文: C段第6句: “...shows off the prototype of a 3D

analysis …”

解题思路: 通过题干中的视频成像可以很容易找到原文中对应

的3D和成像。

第 8 页 共 13 页

Question 3

答案：B

关键词: a reason for narrowing/ can’t waste time

定位原文: B段最后1句: “We can’t waste our time looking…”

解题思路: 题目中的rearch activity和原文中的scientific

questions 属于同义表达，定位答题区域，发现此句话所要表达的意

思是不在一些飘渺的、不切实际的科学问题上浪费时间，也就是说要

缩小研究的范围。

Question 4

答案：F

关键词：AIS ideas reproduce/ copying

定位原文: F段第1句话 “Of cour, there’s nothing…”

解题思路: 题干中的reproduce是复制的意思，之后从文章中发

现句子有复制copying，即可以直接定位。

Question 5

答案：D

关键词：Obstacle, investigated/ impact, monitor

定位原文: D段第6句“...to monitor heart rate…”

解题思路: 题干提到理想成绩的障碍是如何被调查研究的，而读

到对应句子之后看到正好是nsors(传感器)对于运动员跑步的

impact(影响)进行研究的仪器，而且obstacles和impact对应。

Question 6

第 9 页 共 13 页

答案：A

关键词：Overview, funded support finance

定位原文: A段倒数第2句 “...finances programmes of

eXcellence…”

解题思路: finances是解题关键，意思为资助，正好跟题干中

funded support表达了相同的义项，直接对应。而且之后一句话提

及以上项目所提供的服务和建议，可以确信答案。

Question 7

答案：E

关键词：Calculated before an event/ using data, well before

a championship

定位原文: E段第1句、第2句 “Using data is a compleX

before a championship, ...”

解题思路: 首先通过well before a championship和文章中

before an event定位到E段， 之后发现后面提及的“竞争模型”

作用就是计算时间和速率，因此内容对应上calculate，此时可断定

答案的位置。

Question 8

答案：A

关键词: digital cameras

定位原文: C段倒数第3句: “..SWAN system now ud in

Australian national…”

第 10 页 共 13 页

解题思路: 前一句已经提到该系统已广泛应用于澳大利亚各项

全国赛事之中，而没有提到其他国家，因此可以判断应该只有澳大利

亚人在使用。

Question 9

答案：B

关键词：nsor

定位原文: D段第7句：“...With the Cooperative Rearch

Centre for Micro…”

解题思路: 找到相同对应词nsor，读其前后的句子，发现有

Melbourne，断定是澳大利亚人的发明。之后要特别留心动词develop

运用现在进行时，表示正在开发;而且注意之后的定语从句采用了将

来时，所以可以断定此发明还没有完成，应该属于将来的成果。因此

选择B。

Question 10

答案: A

关键词：protein

定位原文: D段倒数第4句: “… AIS and the University of

Newcastle…”

解题思路: 非常容易在前面第一句话中找到跟题目protein

tests所对应的词语a test ...protein。之后细读前后句，发现后

面一句话对于此项科技成果的受益者文章中只提到AIS运动员，即澳

大利亚体育学院的运动员，隶属于澳大利亚，所以应该选择A。

第 11 页 共 13 页

Question 11

答案：C

关键词: altitude tent

定位原文: F段倒数第2句: “The same has happened to the

‘altitude tent ’…”

解题思路: 文章中很容易找到用引号括起来的题目中的名词短

语，因此只要细心读原句，就会发现开头的‘The same has

’同样的事情也发生在……根据经验应该顺着文章向上

追溯，发现跟‘altitude tent’相同情况的是1996年奥运会上澳大

利亚人受益的流线型散热运动服现在全世界都在用。因此 ‘altitude

tent’也被世界各国应用。所以答案应该选择C。且根据此段话大意

可以了解文章只提到两种研究成果被别国运用，即髙原帐蓬和流线型

散热服。所以可以间接判断前三项成果是由澳大利人独享的。

Question 12

答案： (a)competition model

关键词： help an athlete plan, produced / prepare the

athlete by, developing

定位原文: E段第1句“Using data…”

解题思路: Help an athlete plan their performance 对应上

prepare the athlete by之后，要认真研究题目所问的是what is

produced,断定所作答案必定要填一个名词。因此要细读原文发现有

单词developing恰与produced相对应，中文意思是“开发”，则答

第 12 页 共 13 页

案必定是开发之后的名词。

Question 13

答案： (by)2 percent/%

关键词： 19% Olympic Games, cyclists, improve

定位原文: F段第3句“At the Atlanta…”

解题思路: 分析问句是 ‘By how improve’，意思为“提

高了多少”，可以判断出答案需要写一个数字。因此仔细阅读相关语

句找到 sliced as much as two per cent off cyclists ‘and rowers’

time。很快就可以找到数字百分之二

。
