Different exercise types have different purposes and different benefits. One type of exercise may not accomplish all goals of being physically fit: a healthy heart, strong muscles and bones, and safety from injury. As a result, it is important to do enough types of exercise to have all the physical benefits. Here is a quick check sheet.
Aerobic Exercise: To have a strong and healthy heart, you need to do aerobic exercise. This means that you need to exercise yourself enough so that your heart rate, while exercising, is 65 percent to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate. If you don’t get your heart rate up within this level—you just aren’t working hard enough. Whatever you do, your heart rate needs to be 65 percent to 85 percent of your MHR for 20 to 30 minutes, at least 3 times a week. Typical types include:
* Running
* Walking (at least 4 to 4.5 mph)
* Swimming
* Bikingk3s5u
* Elliptical Training (椭圆运动)
* Yoga
Strength Training: To keep your muscles and bones strong, you need to do strength training. This comes in a variety of forms. Whatever you do, however, you need to train your muscles enough so that they are really tired by the end of each session. To see real benefits, make sure you are strength training 2 to 3 times a week for about 30 to 40 minutes. Typical types of strength training include:
* Weight Training
* Yoga
* Resistance Training
* Plyometrics(肌肉增强训练)
Flexibility Training: To keep your body flexible, reducing risk of injuries and pain in your joints and muscles, you need to do flexibility training. You should always aim to stretch every muscle after any exercise routine. Typical types of flexibility training include:
* Stretching
* Yoga
* Pilates(普拉提课程)
So next time you think that yoga 5 times a week will be enough, think about what it is really doing. Is it getting your heart rate up? Are you making up your strength? Are you keeping your muscles flexible?
【小题1】If your purpose is to _______, you can choose swimming as your exercise form.
A.build a strong and healthy heart |
B.keep muscles and bones strong |
C.keep body flexible |
D.reduce risk of injuries and pain in joints and muscles |
A.Yoga is really better for people than running |
B.The more exercise you do, the better |
C.Flexibility training helps you build up your muscles |
D.The three kinds of training have links with one another |
A.meeting | B.gathering | C.period | D.term |
A.how to find a good workout dealing with two or three of these goals |
B.how to choose an exercise type |
C.how to build up our strength |
D.how to be more flexible |
【小题1】A
【小题2】D
【小题3】C
【小题4】A
解析试题分析:文章介绍不同的锻炼类型可以有不同的目的和效果,文章介绍三种不同的锻炼方式,它们的好处和类型。
【小题1】细节题:从第二段的句子:Aerobic Exercise: To have a strong and healthy heart, you need to do aerobic exercise. This means that you need to exercise yourself enough so that your heart rate, while exercising, is 65 percent to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate.可知有氧运动可以帮助训练强壮和健康的心脏。而swimming就在其中,选A
【小题2】推理题:从每种运动的类型和文章的最后一句话:So next time you think that yoga 5 times a week will be enough, think about what it is really doing. Is it getting your heart rate up? Are you making up your strength? Are you keeping your muscles flexible? 可知瑜伽既是有氧运动,也是肌肉增强训练,还是柔韧训练,可知这三种练习是有联系的,选D
【小题3】猜词题:从前面的句子:Whatever you do, however, you need to train your muscles enough可知每种训练的时间要足够长,所以在这个阶段结束的时候会感到累。选 C
【小题4】推理题;文章的最后一段说一星期5次瑜伽不能训练到所有这三种运动,所以下文应该是找到一种有效的锻炼方式可以达到两到三种效果。选A

LEEDS, England—A Leeds University psychology professor is researching a course to help dozens of Britons forgive their enemies.
“The hate we hold within us is a cancer.” Professor Ken Hart said, adding that holding in anger can lead to problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease.
More than 70 people have become volunteers in Hart’s first 20-week workshop in London—a course he says is the first of its kind in the world.
These are people who are sick and tired of living with a memory. They realize their bitterness is a poison they think they can pour out, but they end up drinking it themselves, said Canadian-born Hart.
The students meet in each group of eight to ten for a two-hour workshop with a director every two weeks.
The course, ending in July, is expected to get rid of the cancer of hate in these people. “People have lots of negative attitudes towards forgiveness,” he said, “People confuse forgiveness with forgetting. Forgiveness means changing from a negative attitude to a positive one.”
Hart and his team have created instructions to provide the training needed.
“The main idea is to give you guidances on how to look at all kinds of angers and how they affect you, and how to change your attitudes towards the person you are angry with,” said Norman Claringbull, a senior expert on the forgiveness project.
Hart said, “I believe forgiveness is a skill that can be taught, as these people want to get free of the past.”
【小题1】From this passage we know that ________.
A.without hate, people will have less trouble connected with blood pressure and heart disease |
B.people who suffer from blood pressure and heart disease must have many enemies |
C.high blood pressure can only be cured by psychology professors |
D.high blood pressure and heart disease are caused by hate |
A.attend Hart’s course |
B.persuade him or her to have a positive talk with you |
C.never meet him or her any longer |
D.treat him or her positively instead of negatively |
A.meet their enemies |
B.change their attitudes |
C.enjoy the professor’s teaching |
D.learn how to quarrel with others |
A.meet in eight or ten groups |
B.get rid of the illness of cancer |
C.attend a gathering twice a month |
D.pour out everything stored in your mind |
A.persuade Britons to go to Hart’s workshop |
B.tell us the news about Hart’s research |
C.tell us how to run a workshop like Hart’s |
D.help us to look at all kinds of angers |

When I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn’t understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer (使…快活) me up, my laugh turned into crying.
So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so does crying.
Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional (情感的) health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.
Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and more friendly and they are more ready to offer support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we're very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.
Just as crying can be healthy, not crying — holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering — can be bad for physical health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don't fight it. It's a natural — and healthy — emotional response.
【小题1】Why didn't the author cry when her grandmother died?
A.Because her father did not want her to feel too sad. |
B.Because she did not love her grandmother. |
C.Because she was too shy to cry at that time. |
D.The author doesn’t give the explanation. |
A.there are two ways to keep healthy |
B.laughing does more good to health than crying |
C.crying and laughing play the same roles |
D.emotional health has a close relationship to physical health |
A.Crying is the best way to get help from others. |
B.Holding back tears may cause some health problems. |
C.We will know our deep feelings if we cry. |
D.We must cry if we want to reduce pressure. |
A.Power of Tears | B.How to Keep Healthy |
C.Why We Cry | D.A New Scientific Discovery |
A.come back | B.pay back | C.hold back | D.give back |

The economic growth that many nations in Asia and increasingly Africa have experienced over the past couple of decades has transformed hundreds of millions of lives – almost entirely for the better. But there’s a byproduct to that growth, one that’s evident – or sometimes less than evident – in the smoggy, smelly skies above cities like Beijing, New Delhi and Jakarta. Thanks to new cars and power plants, air pollution is bad and getting worse in much of the world, and it’s taking a major toll (伤亡人数,代价) on global health.
How big? According to a new analysis published in the Lancet, more than 3.2 million people suffered deaths from air pollution in 2010, the largest number on record. That’s up from 800,000 in 2000. And it’s a regional problem: 65% of those deaths occurred in Asia, where the air is choked by diesel soot (内燃发动机烟雾) from cars and trucks, as well as the song from power plants and the dust from endless urban construction. In East Asia and China, 1.2 million people died, as well as another 712,000 in South Asia, including India. For the first time ever, air pollution is on the world’s top – 10 list of killers, and it’s moving up the ranks faster than any other factor.
So how can air pollution be so damaging? It is the very finest soot – so small that it roots deep within the lungs and from the enters the bloodstream – that contributes to most of the public – health toll of air pollution including death. Diesel soot, which can also cause cancer, is a major problem because it is concentrated in cities along transportation zones affecting overpopulated areas. It is thought to contribute to half the deaths from air pollution in urban centers. Fro example, 1 in 6 people in the U.S. live near a diesel – pollution hot spot like a rail yard, port terminal or freeway.
We also know that air pollution may be linked to other non – deadly diseases. Fortunately in the U.S. and other developed nations, urban air is for the most part cleaner than it was 30 or 40 years ago, thanks to regulations and new technologies like the catalytic converters (催化式排气净化器) that reduce automobile emissions. Governments are also pushing to make air cleaner – see the White House’s move last week to further tighten soot standards. It’s not perfect, but we’ve had much more success dealing with air pollution than climate change.
Will developing nations like India eventually catch up? Hopefully – though the problem may get worse before it gets better. The good news is that it doesn’t take a major technological advance to improve urban air. Switching from diesel fuel to unleaded (无铅燃油) helps, as do newer and cleaner cars which are less likely to send out pollutants. Power plants – even ones that burn mineral fuels like coal – can be fitted with pollution – control equipment that, at a price, will greatly reduce smog and other pollutants.
But the best solutions may involve urban design. In the Guardian, John Vidal notes that Delhi now has 200 cars per 1,000 people, far more than much richer Asian cities like Hong Kong and Singapore. Developing cities will almost certainly see an increase in care ownership as residents become wealthier – and that doesn’t have to mean deadly air pollution. Higher incomes should also lead to tougher environmental regulations, witch is exactly what happened in the West. We can only hope it happens before the death toll from bad air gets even higher.
【小题1】What tends to give rise to the highest death toll according to the passage?
A.The lack of tight environmental protection standards. |
B.The increasing numbers of the diesel cars and trucks. |
C.The frighteningly high death rate from deadly cancer. |
D.The world’s serious air pollution such as soot and dust. |
A.consequence | B.solution | C.reform | D.design |
A.the diesel soot is too small to be seen |
B.the diesel soot is much too poisonous to breathe |
C.the diesel soot roots in lungs and gets into blood |
D.the diesel soot can also contribute to deadly cancer |
A.the global economic growth is mainly to blame for air pollution and climate change |
B.the developing countries are repeating the same mistakes as the developed ones made |
C.the ecological situation and air pollution in India are becoming worse and worse |
D.the unbeatable air is increasingly becoming a major killer throughout the world |
A.the making of tougher environmental regulations alone is of little use |
B.more sever regulations should be made to handle air pollution |
C.the urban construction in western developed countries is the best choice |
D.the pace of development has to be slowed down to reduce air pollution |

Cutting global warming pollution would not only make the planet healthier, it would make people healthier too, new research suggested.
Cutting carbon dioxide emissions could save millions of lives, mostly by reducing preventable deaths from heart and lung diseases, according to studies released Wednesday and published in a special issue of The Lancet, a British medical journal.
"Relying on fossil fuels leads to unhealthy lifestyles, increasing our chances of getting sick and in some cases takes years from our lives," US Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said in a telecast briefing from her home state of Kansas. "As greenhouse gas emissions go down, so do deaths from cardiovascular(心血管) and respiratory(呼吸道) diseases. This is not a small effect."
Instead of looking at the health ills caused by future global warming, as past studies have done, this research looks at the immediate benefits of doing something about the problem, said Linda Birnbaum, director of the US National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.
Some possible benefits seemed highly speculative, the researchers conceded, based on people driving less and walking and cycling more. Other proposals studied were more concrete and achievable, such as reducing cook stoves that burn dung(粪便), charcoal and other polluting fuels in the developing world.
And cutting carbon dioxide emissions also makes the air cleaner, reducing lung damage for millions of people, doctors said.
"Here are ways you can attack major health problems at the same time as dealing with climate change," said lead author Dr. Paul Wilkinson, an environmental epidemiologist at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
Wilkinson said the individual studies came up with numbers of premature deaths prevented or extra years of life added for certain places.
For example, switching to low-polluting cars in London and Delhi, India, would save 160 lost years of life in London and nearly 1,700 in Delhi for every million residents, one study found. But if people also drove less and walked or biked more, those extra saved years would soar to more than 7,300 years in London and 12,500 years in Delhi because of less heart disease.
【小题1】What does the passage mainly talk about? _______.
A.How can people live longer? |
B.Cutting carbon dioxide emissions saves lives. |
C.Global warming threatens people’s lives. |
D.People should stop relying on fossil fuels. |
A.it focuses on the immediate benefits of cutting carbon dioxide emissions |
B.it studies the bad effects arising from future global warming |
C.it is believed by more people |
D.it mainly targets at developing countries |
A.sometimes it takes years to see the bad effects caused by consuming fossil fuels |
B.without greenhouse gas emissions, people would not die of cardiovascular and respiratory diseases |
C.the main reason why people get sick is that they rely on fossil fuels |
D.deaths from cardiovascular and respiratory diseases are closely related to greenhouse gas emissions |
A.Driving less |
B.Walking and cycling as much as possible. |
C.Stopping using fossil fuels |
D.Reducing the use of polluting fuels to cook. |
A.London and Delhi have already benefited from reducing greenhouse gas emissions |
B.switching to low-polluting cars would save 160 lives in London each year |
C.walking and biking instead of driving will reduce the chance of heart disease |
D.attacking health problems and dealing with climate change are contradictory |

Driving a car is not just handling controls and judging speed and distance. It requires you to predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected , When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant (抑制药),damaging eyesight, judgment and co-ordination (协调),slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving link , driving will be affected.
Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed it up with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee.
The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration (浓度) is:
● 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of blood ;or
● 22 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath ;or
● 67 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of urine(尿液)
Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence(罪) or are being suspected of drink driving will be tested.
Any drive found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be fined a maximum of HK﹩25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned from driving.
The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens (样本) for breath, blood or urine tests without good excuse.
Drink driving is a criminal offence. Be a responsible driver, think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol.
【小题1】The first paragraph is mainly about_____________.
A.the introductions of driving skills | B.the damage of drinking to your body |
C.the effect of drinking on driving | D.the process of alcohol being absorbed |
A.alcohol | B.absorption | C.blood | D.process |
A.Drinking below the drink driving limit has no effect on driving |
B.Alcohol is taken in more quickly when drunk with fruit juice. |
C.Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body. |
D.50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of breath is below the drink limit |
A.should provide specimens for testing. |
B.will be forbidden to drive for 3 years |
C.will be punished for 10 driving-offence points |
D.should pay a maximum fine of HK$25,000 |

Millions of Americans return from long-distance trips by air, but their luggage doesn’t always come home with them. Airline identification tags(标签) can come loose, and the bags go who-knows-where. And passengers leave all kinds of things on planes.
The airlines collect the items and, for 90 days, attempt to find their owners. They don’t keep them, since they’re not in the warehouse business. And by law, they cannot sell the bags, because the airlines might be tempted to deliberately misplace luggage.
So once insurance companies have paid for lost bags and their contents, and they no longer belong to passengers, a unique store in the little town of Scottsboro, Alabama, buys them. The “Unclaimed Baggage Center,” is so popular that the building, which is set up like a department store, is the number-one tourist attraction in all of Alabama. More than one million visitors stop in each year and take one of the store’s shopping carts on a hunt for treasures.
Each day, clerks bring out 7,000 new items, and veteran(老练的)shoppers rush to paw over them. You can find everything from precious jewels to hockey sticks, best-selling novels, leather jackets, tape recorders, surfboards, even half -used tubes of toothpaste.
The store’s own laundry washes or cleans all the clothes found in luggage, then sells them. The Unclaimed Baggage Center has found guns, illegal drugs and even a live rattlesnake.
The store has a little museum where some of its most unusual acquisitions(获得物) have been preserved. They include highland bagpipes, a burial mask from an Egyptian pharaoh's tomb, and a medieval suit of armor.
Statistics indicate that less than one-half of one percent of luggage checked on U.S. carriers is permanently lost and available to the store.
【小题1】 Paragraph1 shows that many passengers lose their luggage because______.
A.they are forgetful |
B.they are in a hurry |
C.there is no lost and found office in many airports |
D.the owners of some luggage can’t be identified |
A.they have to find the owners |
B.they are likely to make a profit on the bags on purpose |
C.some bags are expensive |
D.they have to keep the bags as long as possible |
A.there's a large variety of goods. |
B.all thethings there are very cheap. |
C.visitors may purchase something undervalued. |
D.Visitors will enjoy some amusing activities there. |
A.A little museum will keep all the precious unclaimed baggage. |
B.The percentage of passengers who lose their baggage for ever is small. |
C.The things in the Unclaimed Baggage Center are articles for daily use. |
D.People are not allowed to buy the illegal things in the store. |
A.To introduce how the unclaimed baggage in the airports is handled in America. |
B.To introduce an attractive place to tourists. |
C.To remind passengers of taking care of their baggage. |
D.To advise the airlines to find the owners of the unclaimed baggage. |
