It is designed to help you feel confident in both practical settings and written assessments.
在 Year 8 OCR 体育课程中,同学们会在七年级的基础上进一步发展,从基本的运动技能转向更深入的分析,理解身体在运动和体育活动中是如何工作的。本文汇集了所有你需要掌握的核心知识点——从骨骼和肌肉的名称,到支撑运动表现的能量系统和训练原则。它旨在帮助你在实践和书面评估中都充满信心。
1. The Skeletal System: Functions and Major Bones | 骨骼系统:功能与主要骨骼
The skeleton has four key functions: protection of vital organs (e.g. the cranium protects the brain), support for the body against gravity, movement by providing attachment points for muscles, and production of blood cells in the bone marrow. In sport, the skeleton also provides leverage to generate force and speed.
骨骼系统有四个关键功能:保护重要器官(例如颅骨保护大脑),支撑身体抵抗重力,通过为肌肉提供附着点来实现运动,以及在骨髓中产生血细胞。在运动中,骨骼还提供杠杆作用以产生力量和速度。
Key bones to know for Year 8 include the cranium, clavicle, scapula, humerus, radius, ulna, vertebral column, pelvis, femur, patella, tibia, fibula, and the bones of the hands and feet. These form the axial and appendicular skeleton.
Year 8 需要了解的主要骨骼包括:颅骨、锁骨、肩胛骨、肱骨、桡骨、尺骨、脊柱、骨盆、股骨、髌骨、胫骨、腓骨以及手部和足部的骨骼。它们构成了中轴骨和附肢骨骼。
- Cranium | 颅骨
- Clavicle and scapula | 锁骨和肩胛骨
- Humerus, radius, ulna | 肱骨、桡骨、尺骨
- Vertebral column | 脊柱
- Pelvis | 骨盆
- Femur, patella, tibia, fibula | 股骨、髌骨、胫骨、腓骨
2. The Muscular System and Movement | 肌肉系统与运动
Muscles work in pairs across joints to create movement – this is called antagonistic muscle action. When one muscle contracts (the agonist), the other relaxes (the antagonist). For example, during a bicep curl, the biceps brachii is the agonist and the triceps brachii is the antagonist. In a press-up, the triceps extend the elbow and are the agonist, while the biceps relax.
肌肉跨关节成对工作以产生运动——这被称为拮抗肌协作。当一块肌肉收缩(主动肌)时,另一块放松(拮抗肌)。例如,在进行肱二头肌弯举时,肱二头肌是主动肌,肱三头肌是拮抗肌。在俯卧撑中,肱三头肌伸展肘部,是主动肌,而肱二头肌放松。
Important muscles in the body include the deltoid, pectorals, latissimus dorsi, abdominals, quadriceps, hamstrings, gastrocnemius, and gluteals. Knowing their locations and roles helps analyse sporting actions, like the quadriceps extending the knee when kicking a ball.
身体中重要的肌肉包括三角肌、胸大肌、背阔肌、腹肌、股四头肌、腘绳肌、腓肠肌和臀肌。了解它们的位置和作用有助于分析体育动作,比如踢球时股四头肌伸展膝关节。
3. The Cardiorespiratory System | 心肺系统
The cardiorespiratory system is the combined work of the heart, blood vessels, and lungs. During exercise, the heart rate and breathing rate increase to deliver more oxygen to the working muscles. The heart is a muscular pump with four chambers: right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium, left ventricle. Deoxygenated blood travels from the body to the right side, then to the lungs; oxygenated blood returns to the left side and is pumped to the rest of the body.
心肺系统是心脏、血管和肺部的协同工作。在运动过程中,心率和呼吸频率会加快,以便向工作的肌肉输送更多氧气。心脏是一个有四个腔室的肌肉泵:右心房、右心室、左心房、左心室。缺氧血从身体流向心脏右侧,然后流向肺部;充氧血返回左侧,并被泵送到全身。
i, gaseous exchange takes place: oxygen diffuses into the capillaries, and carbon dioxide diffuses out. This process is vital for aerobic performance.
空气的路径:空气通过鼻子/口腔进入→气管→支气管→细支气管→肺泡。在肺泡处进行气体交换:氧气扩散进入毛细血管,二氧化碳扩散出来。这个过程对有氧运动表现至关重要。
4. Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercise | 有氧运动与无氧运动
Aerobic exercise uses oxygen to release energy from food and can be sustained for long periods. It happens at a moderate intensity, such as jogging, cycling, or swimming over a distance. The word equation for aerobic respiration is:
有氧运动使用氧气从食物中释放能量,可以长时间持续。它以中等强度进行,例如慢跑、长距离骑行或游泳。有氧呼吸的文字方程式如下:
Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy (ATP)
葡萄糖 + 氧气 → 二氧化碳 + 水 + 能量 (ATP)
Anaerobic exercise occurs at very high intensities where oxygen demand exceeds supply. It produces energy without oxygen but creates lactic acid as a by-product, which can cause muscle fatigue. Sprinting, weightlifting, and jumping are typical anaerobic activities. The word equation:
无氧运动在极高强度下进行,此时需氧量超过了供应。它在无氧情况下产生能量,但会产生乳酸作为副产品,这可能导致肌肉疲劳。短跑、举重和跳跃是典型的无氧活动。文字方程式如下:
Glucose → Energy (ATP) + Lactic Acid
葡萄糖 → 能量 (ATP) + 乳酸
5. Components of Health-Related Fitness | 健康相关体能要素
Health-related fitness components are the aspects of fitness that help you stay physically healthy. There are five main components:
健康相关体能要素是帮助你保持身体健康的那些方面。主要有五个要素:
- Cardiovascular endurance – the ability of the heart and lungs to supply oxygen during sustained activity. E.g. running a 1500 m race. | 心血管耐力 – 心脏和肺部在持续活动中供氧的能力。例如跑1500米比赛。
- Muscular strength – the maximal force a muscle can exert in one contraction. E.g. weightlifting. | 肌力 – 一块肌肉在一次收缩中能产生的最大力量。例如举重。
- Muscular endurance – the ability of a muscle to sustain repeated contractions without fatigue. E.g. rowing. | 肌耐力 – 肌肉在没有疲劳的情况下持续重复收缩的能力。例如划船。
- Flexibility – the range of motion around a joint. E.g. gymnastic splits. | 柔韧性 – 关节周围的活动范围。例如体操劈叉。
- Body composition – the ratio of lean body mass to fat mass. | 身体构成 – 去脂体重与脂肪量的比例。
6. Components of Skill-Related Fitness | 技能相关体能要素
Skill-related fitness components are more about how well you perform in specific sports and activities. They include agility, balance, coordination, power, reaction time, and speed.
技能相关体能要素更多关系到你在特定运动和活动中的表现水平。它们包括敏捷性、平衡性、协调性、爆发力、反应时间和速度。
- Agility – the ability to change direction quickly and precisely. E.g. dodging in netball. | 敏捷性 – 快速且准确地改变方向的能力。例如无挡板篮球中的闪避。
- Balance – the ability to maintain the body's centre of mass over its base of support. E.g. a handstand. | 平衡性 – 将身体重心保持在支撑面内的能力。例如倒立。
- Coordination – the smooth combination of body parts to perform a skill. E.g. hitting a cricket ball. | 协调性 – 身体各部分平稳地配合以完成技能。例如击打板球。
- Power – the ability to combine strength and speed in an explosive action. E.g. a long jump take-off. | 爆发力 – 在爆发性动作中结合力量和速度的能力。例如跳远起跳。
- Reaction time – the time taken to respond to a stimulus. E.g. a sprint start. | 反应时间 – 对刺激做出反应所需的时间。例如短跑起跑。
- Speed – the ability to move the whole body or body parts quickly. E.g. a 100 m sprint. | 速度 – 使整个身体或身体部位快速移动的能力。例如100米短跑。
7. Principles of Training (FITT and SPORT) | 训练原则 (FITT 和 SPORT)
To improve fitness effectively, training sessions must follow specific principles. The FITT principle helps design a workout programme:
为了有效提升体能,训练课必须遵循特定的原则。FITT原则有助于设计锻炼计划:
- Frequency – how often you train. | 频率 – 你多长时间训练一次。
- Intensity – how hard you work. Often measured by heart rate. | 强度 – 你训练的辛苦程度。通常用心率来衡量。
- Time – the duration of each session. | 时间 – 每次训练的持续时间。
- Type – the kind of exercise chosen (e.g. aerobic, anaerobic). | 类型 – 所选择的运动种类(例如有氧、无氧)。
Additionally, the SPORT principles help fine-tune training: Specificity (targeting relevant fitness components), Progression (gradually increasing demands), Overload (working harder than normal to cause adaptation), Reversibility (fitness is lost when you stop training), and Tedium (keeping training varied to avoid boredom).
此外,SPORT 原则有助于微调训练:Specificity 针对性(针对相关的体能要素),Progression 渐进性(逐渐增加负荷),Overload 超负荷(比平时训练更努力以引起适应),Reversibility 可逆性(停止训练后体适能会下降),以及 Tedium 枯燥性(保持训练多样化以避免乏味)。
8. Methods of Training | 训练方法
Different training methods are used to develop different fitness components. Understanding these helps you choose the right method for your sport.
不同的训练方法用于发展不同的体能要素。理解这些有助于你为自己的运动选择正确的方法。
- Continuous training – steady exercise with no breaks, improves cardiovascular endurance. E.g. 30-minute run at constant pace. | 持续训练 – 无间歇的稳定运动,改善心血管耐力。例如匀速跑30分钟。
- Interval training – periods of high-intensity work followed by recovery periods. Develops speed and anaerobic fitness. E.g. 60 m sprint, 2 minutes walk, repeat. | 间歇训练 – 高强度训练期与恢复期交替。发展速度和无氧体能。例如60米冲刺,走2分钟,重复。
- Circuit training – a series of exercises arranged in stations, targeting different muscle groups. Improves muscular and cardiovascular endurance. | 循环训练 – 以站点形式安排一系列练习,针对不同肌群。改善肌耐力和心血管耐力。
- Weight/resistance training – using free weights, body weight or machines to build muscular strength and endurance. | 重量/抗阻训练 – 使用自由重量、自身体重或器械来增强肌力和肌耐力。
- Plyometric training – explosive movements such as hopping and bounding to develop power. | 增强式训练 – 爆发性动作,如跳跃和跨步,以发展爆发力。
- Fartlek training – 'speed play'; mixing steady running with bursts of speed, often on varied terrain. Good for games players. | 法特莱克训练 – “速度游戏”;将匀速跑与速度冲刺混合,通常在不同地形上进行。对球类运动员很有益。
9. Measuring Exercise Intensity: Heart Rate | 运动强度测量:心率
Heart rate (HR) is a reliable indicator of exercise intensity. The maximum heart rate (MHR) can be estimated using a simple formula:
心率 (HR) 是衡量运动强度的可靠指标。最大心率 (MHR) 可使用一个简单公式估算:
MHR = 220 – Age
MHR = 220 – 年龄
Aerobic training zones are typically 60%–80% of MHR. For a Year 8 pupil aged 12–13, MHR is around 207–208 bpm. Therefore, the aerobic zone would be approximately 124–166 bpm. Anaerobic training takes place above 80%–90% MHR. Monitoring heart rate helps athletes train safely and avoid overtraining.
有氧训练区通常为最大心率的60%–80%。对于12–13岁的Year 8学生,最大心率约为207–208 bpm。因此,有氧训练区约在124–166 bpm。无氧训练则在最大心率的80%–90%以上进行。监测心率有助于运动员安全训练并避免过度训练。
10. Nutrition and Hydration for Performance | 运动表现中的营养与补水
A balanced diet for sport includes carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, fibre, and water. Carbohydrates are the main fuel for aerobic and anaerobic exercise; they are stored in muscles and the liver as glycogen. Proteins are needed for muscle repair and growth. Fats provide energy for low-intensity, long-duration activity. Hydration is crucial – even small amounts of dehydration can impair coordination, decision-making, and endurance. Water regulates body temperature through sweating.
运动均衡饮食包括碳水化合物、蛋白质、脂肪、维生素、矿物质、纤维和水。碳水化合物是有氧和无氧运动的主要燃料;它们以糖原的形式储存在肌肉和肝脏中。蛋白质是肌肉修复和生长所需的。脂肪为低强度、长时间的活动提供能量。补水至关重要——即使轻微脱水也能损害协调性、决策能力和耐力。水通过出汗调节体温。
Timing of meals is also important: eat a carbohydrate-rich meal 2–3 hours before exercise; a light snack 30–60 minutes before can top up energy; refuel with protein and carbohydrates within 30 minutes after exercise to aid recovery. Sports drinks containing electrolytes may be useful during prolonged, intense exercise.
进餐时机也很重要:运动前2–3小时吃富含碳水化合物的一餐;运动前30–60分钟吃一点小零食可以补充能量;运动后30分钟内补充蛋白质和碳水化合物以帮助恢复。在长时间、高强度运动中,含有电解质的运动饮料可能有用。
11. Injury Prevention and Safety in Sport | 运动中的损伤预防与安全
Preventing injury is a key responsibility for every sportsperson. A thorough warm-up increases muscle temperature, improves flexibility, and mentally prepares the performer. It should include a pulse raiser, dynamic stretches, and sport-specific drills. A cool-down after exercise helps remove waste products like lactic acid and includes low-intensity activity and static stretching.
预防损伤是每个运动员的关键责任。充分的热身能提升肌肉温度、提高柔韧性,并使参与者做好心理准备。热身应包括提高心率的运动、动态拉伸以及运动专项练习。运动后的整理活动有助于清除乳酸等废物,包括低强度活动和静态拉伸。
Using correct equipment, wearing appropriate footwear, and playing by the rules reduce risk. Principles of safe practice involve avoiding overuse, gradually increasing training load, and listening to your body. Common injuries include sprains, strains, and fractures. The R.I.C.E. method (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) is used to manage soft tissue injuries in the first 48 hours.
使用正确的装备,穿着合适的鞋,并遵守规则可以降低风险。安全练习的原则包括避免过度使用、逐渐增加训练负荷以及倾听身体的信号。常见的损伤有扭伤、拉伤和骨折。R.I.C.E. 方法(休息、冰敷、加压、抬高)用于处理前48小时内的软组织损伤。
12. Psychology in Sport: Goal Setting and Feedback | 运动心理学:目标设定与反馈
Mental skills are just as important as physical ones. Goal setting helps athletes stay motivated and track progress. SMART goals are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. For example, 'I want to improve my 60 m sprint time by 0.3 seconds over the next 6 weeks' is a SMART goal. Goal setting can focus on an outcome (winning), performance (personal best), or process (technique).
心理技能与身体技能同样重要。目标设定有助于运动员保持积极性并追踪进展。SMART 目标是具体的、可衡量的、可实现的、相关的和有时间限制的。例如,“我想在未来6周内将60米短跑成绩提高0.3秒”就是一个 SMART 目标。目标设定可以关注结果(获胜)、表现(个人最佳)或过程(技术)。
Feedback is information about how a skill was performed. It can be intrinsic (from within the performer, how it felt) or extrinsic (from a coach, teacher, or video). Knowledge of results (knowing the score) and knowledge of performance (technical detail) are both important. Positive feedback encourages, while constructive feedback advises what to change. In Year 8, learning to give and receive feedback respectfully is a valuable life skill.
反馈是关于技能如何执行的信息。它可以是内在的(来自表演者自身,感觉如何)或外在的(来自教练、老师或视频)。结果知识(知道比分)和表现知识(技术细节)都很重要。积极的反馈鼓励人,而建设性的反馈建议如何改进。在 Year 8,学会尊重地给予和接受反馈是一项宝贵的生活技能。
