The more you sit each day, the more chance you have of getting sick.Richard Rosenkranz of Kansas State University was among the researchers. He said people who sat for long periods were at great risk of diseases when compared with those who sat less. He said that was especially true for some chronic (慢性的) diseases.Richard Rosenkranz studied the relationship between sitting and chronic diseases in middle-aged Australian men. He worked with researchers from the University of Western Sydney. They examined the health records of more than 63,000 men from New South Wales. The men were between the ages of 45 and 65. The men reported about what diseases they had, or did not have. And they kept record of the amount of time each day that they sat. The study also showed that exercising every morning for 30 minutes did not reduce the health risk if you spend the next eight hours sitting at the desk. Mr. Rosenkranz said it was important to make sure you exercise. But he said it was also important to find ways not to sit so much during the day.Many jobs today require sitting and working at the desk all day. James Levine works at the Mayo Clinic in the United Sates. He suggests working while standing at high table some of the time instead of sitting at a desk. Dr. Levine also suggests standing while using the telephone or eating. Or he advises walking with the people you work with for an on-foot meeting. And he notes that if you spend more time on your feet, you may have muscle activity that helps burn fats and sugars in your body.4. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph implies that _.

But the only thing that wasnt very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldnt catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish.” I remember being even more upset then because, “Im not a fish!” I didnt know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish dont have any eyelids (眼皮) and the sun hurts their eyes. The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them. When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like sales people. ” But it didnt completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters(章节). 12. Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine? A. He could not catch a fish. B. His father was not patient with him. C. His father did not teach him fishing. D. He could not influence a fish as his father did. 13. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found _ . A. in deep water on sunny days B. in deep water on cloudy daysC. in shallow water under sunlight D. in shallow water under waterside trees14. After entering the business world, the author found . A. it easy to think like a customer B. his first bosss sales ideas reasonableC. his fathers fishing advice inspiring D. it difficult to sell services to poor people15. This passage most likely comes from . A. a book about sales B.a fishing guide C. a novel on childhood D. a millionaires story 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Some Ways to Deal With Hardships and Pain in LifeRegardless of(不管) the difficulties you may face, its getting support and moving forward that counts (重要)the most when you need to deal with hardships. 16 Write or talk about how you feelKeeping my feelings to myself used to make me feel lonely, but when I found someone who actually cared about me, it became natural to share how I felt with him and that contributed to (带来) my ability to overcome troublesome situation. 17 . Although talking to strangers about your problems may seem crazy, it actually isnt. 18 It is said that running away from your problems will never help, and though that is partially(部分地) true, it doesnt mean that you need to go so deeply in a situation that you run out of air to breathe and lose the ability to make your choices. It is why its important to separate yourself from a situation long enough to think clearly.Remind yourself that you are not aloneRegardless of who or what you depend on, you need to remind yourself that you are not alone; you have people who do care. 19 Sometimes its strangers who may share the same feeling as you do. Think about it-you may not know any readers personally but they could be in the exact same situation as you, so in fact, no one is truly alone.Accept the results and get support again 20 Whether the results of your choices proved to be helpful or not, its time for you to accept them and get support. This time you have a new experience to add to your book of life so the next time something tries to knock you down, it wont be easy because you will be strong and determined to push forward. A. Tell yourself to accept the hardship. B. Finally, its time to accept what has happened. C. Here are some things Ive tried just to help me believe in a brighter future and get over a tough situation. D. Separate yourself from the situation. E. All in all, remember that life is short. F. Not only did I speak to him about how I felt, but I decided to blog about it. G. Even if its just one person, thats enough to give you reasons to remind yourself that you will never truly be alone. 第二部分：英语知识运用（共两节, 满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题2分,满分40分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。 Its amazing how one dollar can change the culture of a school.We have a 21 school of about 30 students.
