Question

17．Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook from scratch？Have you been doing internet shopping rather than going to the stores？What can't you be bothered to do？
A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of adults are so lazy they'd catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs．
Just over 2000people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health，Britain's largest health charity．The results were astonishing．
About one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken，they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up．
More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus．Worryingly，of the 654respondents with children，64% said they were often too tired to play with them．
This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese （very fat） before they start school．
Dr Sarah Dauncey，medical director of Nuffield Health，said："People need to get fitter，not just for their own sake，but for the sake of their families，friends and evidently their pets too．
"If we don't start to take control of this problem，a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most  rudimentary  of tasks．"
And Scotland's largest city，Glasgow，was shamed as the most inactive city in the UK，with 75% surveyed admitting they do not get enough exercise，followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton，both with 67%．
The results cause serious challenges for the National Health Service，where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40years and are costing billions of pounds every year．

71．What causes children in the UK to be obese？D
A．Eating ready meal          B．Watching TV
C．Doing Internet shopping    D．Being lazy
72．What can be inferred from the passage？D
A．British people are too lazy to do anything．
B．Internet shopping will do harm to your health．
C．Many people would not run to catch a bus in Britain．
D．People should be more active and take regular exercise to keep fit．
73．Which of the following is Not true according to the passage？A
A．One sixth of British people use remote control when watching TV．
B．People will benefit not only themselves but their families by getting fit．
C．Fatness can cause diseases such as heart disease and cancer．
D．More people get obesity-related illnesses now than 40years ago．
74．What does the underlined word  rudimentary  most probably mean？A
A．basic       B．serious
C．vital       D．hard
75．All the following are among the most lazy cities in the UK exceptC．
A．Glasgow       B．Birmingham
C．Nuffield      D．Southampton．

Answer 1

分析 文章主要介绍了一个关于英国人有多懒的研究报告，该报告说英国人的懒惰造成了肥胖．

解答 71-75  DDAAC
71．D 细节题．由第五段最后一句"Worryingly，of the 654 respondents with children，64% said they were often too tired to play with them．"和第六段"This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese （very fat） before they start school．"可知，懒惰导致儿童的肥胖，故正确答案为D．
72．D 推断题．文章主要介绍了一个关于英国人有多懒的研究报告，该报告说英国人的懒惰造成了肥胖，由此推知，D项的描述正确，故正确答案为D．
73．A 细节题．由第四段"About one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken，they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up．"可知，接受调查的人中，1/6的人说如果遥控器坏了，他们宁愿一直看同一个频道而不愿起床换台，A项与原文不符，所以A项错误．因为此题选择错误项，故正确答案为A．
74．A 用A项替换划线词，则原句"If we don't start to take control of this problem，a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most rudimentary of tasks．"意为"如果我们不开始控制这个问题，整整一代人将变得太胖以致于不能执行最基本的任务"，符合文意，所以A项正确．用其他选项替换划线词，均不能表明锻炼身体的重要性，故正确答案为A．
75．C  细节题．由倒数第二段"And Scotland's largest city，Glasgow，was shamed as the most inactive city in the UK…followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton，both with 67%．"可知正确答案为C．
