题文
阅读理解。 It is probably the strangest sport anyone has ever invented.And at first sight,it looks like the easiest.Competitors have to do two things.The first is to stand still.The second is to place their hands anywhere
on the body of a car,and keep it there.
This is where things start getting difficult.Lots of people are doing the same thing.And the winner of
the "handathon" contest is the person who can carry on doing it for the longest time.That person gets to
own the car.
It still seems to be an easy thing to do.At the beginning it is.Anyone can stand still.But when the
contest has been going for four or five days,standing still seems like the most difficult job in the world.
And keeping the hand in place over this time becomes an act of serious attention.After a few days,the
hand seems to belong to someone else-someone who wants to go home and get some sleep.
Competitors are allowed to take a five-minute break every hour to eat,drink or do whatever else is
necessary.No one is allowed to lean on the car for support.Winners need to be able to show great
powers of attention.They also need to be able to develop special skills.
Maybe the popularity of the handathon is due to the fact that it is not necessary to be a trained athlete
to enter.Entrants in the Longview handathon certainly don't seem to do much preparation.Most say they
will prepare by "getting lots of sleep".Others say they will "eat healthy food" or "pray for success".The
whole event gives ordinary people the chance to do something interesting and win something in the end.
Handathons are competitions,but there is little rivalry (敌对) between competitors.They help each
other out and keep each other's spirits up.People who drop out early return with food,drink and
encouragement.1.The reason why the sport is called "handathon" is that competitors ______.A. cover a long distance

C. wave hands as long as possible
D. do the same thing as in a marathon 2.What ability is likely to be needed most in a handathon?A. Standing without any support.

B. It doesn't need to make any preparation.

考点
据考高分专家说，试题“阅读理解。 It i.....”主要考查你对 [日常生活类阅读 ]考点的理解。日常生活类阅读
日常生活类阅读的概念：
日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作，生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时，最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容，时间和地点。
日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：
【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
