Some people say that the best way to reduce the size of your waist is to do stomach exercise. Many people believe that when specific muscles are exercised, the fatty tissues (组织) in the immediate area are burned up. The truth is that exercise burns fat from all over the body and not from one specific area. Of course, if you reduce the fat throughout your body, you will certainly see results around your waist too.

Some people believe that you need to exercise twice a week in order to keep a sufficient level of physical fitness. However, studies directed by American scientists show that unexercised muscles lose their strength very quickly. Within 48 to 72 hours, you must use the muscles again to reestablish (重建) the good physical effects. And what does that mean to you? American scientists concluded that while daily exercise is most helpful, exercising every other day or three days a week will keep a sufficient level of physical fitness.

Is it true that you burn more calories running one mile than walking the same distance? The answer is no. The truth is that you use the same amount of energy whether you walk or run the mile, since in both cases you are moving the same weight the same distance. The speed does not matter. Of course, if you run rather than walk for 30 minutes, you will cover more distance, and therefore burn more calories.

If your breathing doesn’t return to normal within 5 minutes after you finish exercising, you have exercised too much. Five minutes or so after exercising, your breathing should be normal, your heart shouldn’t be beating loudly, and you shouldn’t be tired.

1.If you want to reduce the fat around your waist, you should ____.

A.do stomach exercise

B.exercise the waist

C.exercise all the muscles of your body

D.run fast for 30 minutes

2.From the second paragraph, we learn that ____.  

A.we only need to exercise twice a week

B.we should exercise three times a week

C.muscles lose their strength after 48 hours

D.we should exercise every other day, or three days a week

3.It can be inferred from the third paragraph that _________ .  

A.you will lose more weight running one hour than walking one hour

B.whether you run one mile or walk the same distance, you use the same amount of energy

C.you will lose more weight running one mile than walking the same distance

D.both A and B

4.If you have exercised too much, _______. 

A.your breathing will take longer than 5 minutes to return to normal after you finish exercising

B.your breathing will return to normal within 5 minutes after finishing exercising

C.your heart will not be beating loudly

D.you will be too tired to move

5.This passage tells us that _________.  

A.it is better to do more running than walking

B.the more exercise you do, the healthier you will be

C.the unexercised muscles must be used again within 48 to 72 hours

D.in order to lose weight, you have to run fast

科目:高中英语 来源:2012年人教版高中英语选修八 unit3 练习卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解

I once had my Chinese MBA students brainstorming on “two-hour business plans”. I separated them into six groups and gave them an example: a restaurant chain. The more original their idea, the better, I said. Finally, five of the six groups presented plans for restaurant chains. The sixth proposed a catering(餐饮) service. Though I admitted the time limit had been difficult, I expressed my disappointment.

My students were middle managers, financial analysts and financiers from state-owned enterprises and global companies. They were not without talent or opinions, but they had been shaped by an educational system that rarely stressed or rewarded critical thinking or inventiveness. The scene I just described came in different forms during my two years’ teaching at the school. Papers were often copied from the Web and the Harvard Business Review. Case study debates were written up and just memorized. Students frequently said that copying is a superior business strategy, better than inventing and creating.

In China, every product you can imagine has been made and sold. But so few well-developed marketing and management minds have been raised that it will be a long time before most people in the world can name a Chinese brand.

With this problem in mind, partnerships with institutions like Yale and MIT have been established. And then there’s the “thousand-talent scheme”: this new government program is intended to improve technological modernization by attracting top foreign-trained scientists to the mainland with big money. But there are worries about China’s research environment. It's hardly known for producing independent thinking and openness, and even big salary offers may not be attractive enough to overcome this.

At last, for China, becoming a major world creator is not just about setting up partnerships with top Western universities. Nor is it about gathering a group of well-educated people and telling them to think creatively. It’s about establishing a rich learning environment for young minds. It’s not that simple.

1.Why does the author feel disappointed at his students?

A.Because there is one group presenting a catering service.

B.Because the six groups made projects for restaurant chains.

C.Because all the students copied a case for the difficult topic.

D.Because the students’ ideas were lacking in creativeness.

2.Which of the following scenes is NOT considered as lack of creation?

A.Papers were often downloaded from the Internet.

B.Students often said that copying is a preferable business strategy.

C.Students combine knowledge and critical thoughts to solve a problem.

D.Case study debates were written up as well as recited.

3.The underlined word “scheme” in the forth paragraph means__________.

A.timetable

B.theme

C.project

D.policy

4.We can infer from the passage that ___________.

A.China can make and sell any product all over the world

B.high pay may not solve the problem of China’s research environment

C.cooperation with institutions has been set up to make a Chinese brand

D.the new government program are aimed at encouraging imagination

5.Which is the best title of the passage?

A.Look for a New Way of Learning

B.Reward Creative Thinking

C.How to Become a Creator

D.Establish a technical Environment
