Ⅲ.阅读理解
A new study shows that even low levels of weekly exercise have major health benefits. In the study，
30 minutes of walking three days per week was enough to drive down blood pressure and improve overall fitness in a group of healthy sedentary (久坐的) adults.
For optimum(最佳的)health，
adults are currently recommended to engage in 30 minutes of moderate(适度的)exercise for at least five days of the week. But few people achieve this level of weekly activity，
often citing lack of time as the reason.
Dr. Mark A. Tully，
of the University of Ulster，
Northern Ireland，
and his colleagues designed a study to see if exercising at a level lower than currently recommended would improve overall fitness and heart health.
A total of 106 healthy but sedentary adults between the ages of 40 and 61 participated in the 12week study. The subjects were randomly (随机地) assigned a 30minute walk 3 days per week (44 subjects) or a 3minute walk 5 days per week (42 subjects)，
while the remainder did not change their lifestyle(the nonwalking control group).
After 12 weeks，
Tully's team found that blood pressure fell and waistlines and hiplines (臀围) reduced in size significantly in both the 3day walkers and 5day walkers. Overall fitness also increased in both walking groups. In contrast，
no changes occurred in the nonwalking control group.
The experts noted that the degree of positive change in blood pressure and waist and hip size seen in the 3day and 5day walkers is enough to make a difference to an individual's risk of heart disease.
“These results may encourage people who feel they do not have time to exercise for 5 days each week to consider finding time to do a lower weekly target of exercise， ” Tully and his colleagues concluded.
31．What's the main purpose of the article？
A．To encourage people to do some exercise，
even at a low level. B．To encourage people to do as much exercise as possible.
C．To remind sedentary adults to do some exercise.
D．To tell people how to improve overall fitness.
32．Why only few people can do 30minute exercise for five days of the week？
A．They can't find the time.
B．They will be too tired.
C．They will have heart attacks.
D．The level of the exercise is too high for them.
33．Which of the following is WRONG about the study？
A．The participants are all healthy but sedentary adults.
B．The participants are all over 40 years old.
C．The participants do a 30minute walk 3 days a week and a 3minute walk 5 days a week in every two weeks.
D．Both the 3day walkers and 5day walkers improved their health conditions.
34．What can we infer from the fifth and sixth paragraphs？
A．Walking can drive down blood pressure.
B．Even a low level of exercise in a week can improve one's heart health.
C．Walking can improve one's heart health.
D．Walking can make a difference to people's heart.
Ⅳ.补全对话
根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。
—We hear so much about exercises these days. So even experts can't agree on which exercises are best. Now some doctors are strongly encouraging arm exercises.
—Arm exercises？__35__
—__36__They say that arm exercises are a way to become physically healthy.
—But don't arm exercises raise your blood pressure？
—Yes. But the articles I read supply ways to make up for that.
—How？
—By adding leg exercises， so that the arms don't do all the work.
—__37__
—Sounds right to me. I quite agree with you.
—__38__
—They mentioned quite a few， but some of the popular ones are cycling with special bicycles that make you use both your arms and legs.
—__39__ I'd like to have a try.
—The same with me.
A．So what exercises do the experts suggest？
B．It sounds good.
C．And in turn I'm sure that they're also a good chance of losing weight.
D．Actually that's not the main reason.
E．What's your opinion about this？
F．Is that because our arms are too fat or soft？
G．I can hardly believe it.
课时作业(二十九)
.1.A 本题考查动词短语辨析。根据题意，此处表示“是否接受我的建议由你决定”。 be up to sb.意为“由某人决定”；matter to…意为“和……有关，有重大影响”；depend on意为“指望，依靠”。该题中含“whether…or not…”短语的句子是主语从句。
2．B 本题考查动词辨析。句意为：尽管她从未接受过电视采访，但却表现得十分自如。perform意为“表现，表演”；behave 意为“表现，举止”，指做出某种举动或说出某种话语； behave well意为“行为得体”；achieve 意为“完成”，一般指在克服困难或经过一系列曲折后完成了任务或达到了目的；form意为“组成，形成”。根据后一个分句的时态可知该动作发生在过去，用一般过去时，选B。
3．A 本题考查冠词的用法。由谓语动词is可知主语是the number of…(……的数量)；on the increase是固定短语， 意为“正在增加”。
4．C 本题考查名词辨析。句意为：他们投票选举Mr Wilson为工会主席，是因为他的才华和人品(quality)赢得了工友们的尊敬。fortune意为“运气，财产”；quantity 意为“数量”；reaction意为“反应”，均与题意不符。5．A 本题考查动词辨析。句意为：许多伊拉克人现在生活在贫困和恐慌中，换句话说，他们的基本权利得不到保证。recognize意为“认出”；satisfy意为“满足”；prove意为“证明，证实”，均与语境不符。
6．C 本题考查形容词辨析。句意为：“你的描述太过笼统，用处不大。”“让我再具体一些。”specific具体的、明确的。brief简洁的；special专门的，特殊的；particular独特的。
7．D as tough as old boots 意思是“很强壮；坚忍不拔；铁石心肠”。
8．B 本题考查动词辨析。be declared the winner“被宣布为获胜者”，announce不能跟复合结构。
9．B 本题考查动词短语辨析。have an advantage over意为“优于，胜过”；take advantage of…意为“利用……的机会”；take up意为“占据，从事”；get over意为“克服，控制”。
10．C 本题考查状语从句和交际用语。关键要理解第一句的转折意义：尽管他不是很出名，但他是个真正的运动员。A项第二个空不符。
.本文介绍德国艺术大师Albrecht Durer及其名画《祈祷之手》的创作过程，这幅画的背后有一个爱与牺牲的故事。
11．B 根据下文理解，他们想成为画家，所以此处指的是他们的艺术才能。12．C 上文提到They were so poor，所以选financially与之对应，表示他们的父亲在经济上负担不起。
13．A 下文说Albrecht Durer… went off to Nuremberg，说明通过掷硬币，他“胜出”了。
14．D 从前面的went down和下文…look what four years in the mines have done…可知是下矿井挣钱。
15．C 由前面的did so well和even可知，他的作品比“教授”的作品还好，C项符合语境。
16．B considerable相当大(或多)的，意思是给富人画画挣很多钱。considerate体贴的。
17．D drink a toast to…是固定搭配，意思是“向……敬酒，为……干杯”。
18．C 这里指这么多年他哥哥为他作出的“牺牲”。
19．B fulfill his ambition意思是“实现他的抱负”。
20．A It is one's turn to do sth.是固定句型，意思是“轮到某人做某事了”。
21．D 下文说的都是Albert的双手的状况，所以此处应选hands。
22．A 因为下矿井干的是粗活，所以手指都“受过伤”。
23．C 由to return your toast可知，此处是拿起杯子回敬酒。
24．D 由上文的叙述可知，哥哥觉得自己的手已经不适合从事绘画，他认为已经“迟了”。
25．A 此处是对他哥哥手的描写，由上文可知，这双手既受了伤，又有关节炎，因此abused符合这种情况。
26．B 画的名字只有一个词，所以他是将画“简单地”取名为《手》。
27．D 开始这幅画有一个名字是Hands，后来又出现一个名字，所以此处选rename(重新命名)。
28．B 这是一幅“很感人的”作品。touching感人的，伤感的。
29．A 这里指让这幅画作为对你的“提醒”，使你想起亲情和爱。
30．C 没人能在没有其他人的支持和爱的情况下独自获得成功，故选C。alone单独地，独自地。
.大多数人因为忙于工作或学习无法保证充足的锻炼时间。近日一项研究表明，即使短时间的锻炼对身体健康也大有好处。
31．A 主旨大意题。全文通过一个实验说明久坐的人即使每天进行少量的运动也会对心脏健康和血压降低起到很好的作用。因此，文章的主要目的是鼓励人们运动。
32．A 细节理解题。从第二段最后一句话But few people achieve this level of weekly activity，often citing lack of time as the reason. 可知人们通常以“没有时间”为由不进行体育运动。
33．C 细节理解题。从第四段第一句话可知A项和B项的陈述正确；从第四段的The subjects were randomly assigned a 30minute walk 3 days per week (44 subjects)or a 3minute walk 5 days per week(42 subjects)可知C项的陈述错误；从倒数第三段可知D项的陈述正确。故选C。
34．B 推理判断题。从第五段可知，无论是每次30分钟的锻炼每周进行三天，还是每次3分钟的锻炼每周进行五天，都能降血压、增进身体全面健康。从第六段可知，即便少量时间的锻炼也能对控制心脏病的发病几率起到重要的作用。A项是文章中明显的信息，不是推断出来的。C、D项的陈述和文意不符。故选B。
