Many people fear the gym because they feel lost and dont want to embarrass themselves.If you feel you can relate，then group training is an even better option for you.Its a great opportunity to learn more about fitness through the clear instruction and supervision(监管) of a fitness instructor.If youre tired of wandering around the gym wasting time and becoming bored，you can attend an upbeat group fitness class thatll keep your workout on track.Dont let fitness frighten you!If youre serious about wanting to live a healthy lifestyle，its extremely important to surround yourself with people wholl provide you with the proper emotional support.I wouldnt scold anyone for deciding to party on weekends and in turn I wouldnt expect anyone to give offence to me for focusing on my health.Surround yourself with people who uplift，encourage and understand you！Make fitness even more fun by trying something new or any group fitness class，with a friend.Plan to go for a jog together.Then try a fun healthy restaurant or fresh juice bar！Fitness can be both fun and social!Surrounding yourself with people wholl provide you with respect support can be very beneficial while working towards reaching health and fitness goals.First，decide to do it for yourself and work towards staying positive.Then make sure the people you surround yourself with are supportive.Dont let negativity ruin your motivation.1.The first paragraph focuses on .A.the greatest challenge of group exerciseB.the most effective way to improve physical fitnessC.the contribution of group exercise to psychological healthD.the shared common goal in performing exercise in groups答案C解析细节理解题。根据第一段第四句可知，研究表明，群体健身不仅对改善身体健康有益处，而且能有效的改善心理健康。2.The underlined word “upbeat” in the second paragraph probably means “ ”.A.cheerful B.averageC.serious D.temporary答案A解析词义猜测题。根据“If youre tired of wandering around the gym wasting time and becoming bored, you can attend an upbeat group fitness class that will keep your workout on track.”可以判断upbeat应该与bored的意思相反。3.When it comes to emotional support，the author thinks it necessary .A.to sustain a colorful lifestyleB.to party on weekends with positive peopleC.to try a fun healthy restaurant regularlyD.to surround yourself with supportive people答案D解析细节理解题。根据第三段第一句可知，如果你想得到相应的情绪支持，你就该让自己环绕在有积极思维的人身边。4.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Seeking SupportB.Supporting HealthC.Improving Your StrengthD.Building Up Fitness答案B解析标题归纳题。本文对群体健身的益处进行了阐述和论证，因此，群体健身也是保持健康的一种方式。对应B项。【健康环保类阅读理解】（2015模拟题）Monty Hempel is a professor of environmental sciences at Redlands University in California.He studies ecological literacyor ecoliteracy，for short.Ecoliteracy is the ability to think about and understand the natural processes that make life possible.Monty Hempel says ecoliteracy gives people knowledge about environmental problems.But he says it does not always work to get them to change their behavior.Mr.Hempel wrote part of the Worldwatch Institutes latest State of the World report.He says in his article，“Some people think that ecoliteracy is just a green form of science literacy.And what I have tried to ask is whether thats enough.In other words，what an ecologicallyliterate person needs to know might include things like the cycles and the flows，the energy systems，all of those kind of things that we would call the science of ecology.”“That doesnt seem to lead to action to protect our environmentto protect our lifesupport system to the level that we need to.Just because we know a lot about the environment doesnt mean that we actually act to save it.After all，actions speak louder than knowledge.” He adds that people may not be very worried about environmental problems if they seem far away.“Some people call it psychological distance.A lot of climate issues are worse in the Arctic and most of us dont spend time in the Arctic.And so，theres a certain distance.But theres also a distance thats happening in the world as it urbanizespeople spending more time in front of screens and less time out in nature.We become，if you will，disconnected from the natural systems that used to be the key to success for a human being.”To help children discover the wonders of nature，he adds that children should learn about nature in school.But he also points out we have a high mountain for people to climb from knowledge to action.1.From what Monty Hempel says in Paragraph 3，we learn that .A.knowledge on environment protection is not enoughB.knowledge that children learn at school is uselessC.ecoliteracy can help people understand how nature worksD.people with enough knowledge will protect the environment well答案A解析推理判断题。根据第三段中 Monty Hempel说的话，尤其是文中的“And what I have tried to ask is whether thats enough.”暗示仅仅有环保的知识是不够的，故最佳答案为A。2.What is especially important for environment protection in Mr.Hempels opinion?A.Knowledge. B.Action.C.Green living. D.Psychological distance.答案B解析细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“After all，actions speak louder than knowledge.”可知Mr.Hempel的观点是行动更重要，故最佳答案为B。3.Mr.Hempel thinks people show no concern about some environmental problems because .A.they lack knowledge on environment protectionB.they have no awareness of environment protectionC.some environmental problems are not worse at allD.some environmental problems happened far away答案D解析细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Some people call it psychological distance(有些人叫它心理距离).”以及“And so，theres a certain distance(这里是有一定距离的).”，可知人们对一些环境问题不关心，是因为有些环境问题发生在遥远的地方，故最佳答案为D。4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Experts think it is the best way to learn nature in school.B.Climbing a high mountain is a good way to exercise well.C.Changing peoples attitude to environment protection is hard.D.Knowledge can help children take action to protect the environment.答案C解析推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“But he also points out we have a high mountain for people to climb from knowledge to action(但他也指出对许多人来说从知识到行动有一座高山要爬).”可知要改变人们对环境保护的态度是很难的。阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。In Western culture, 21 was the age at which young people traditionally received a key to their parents door, as a symbol of entering adulthood. Now, the age of 21 is a time when people ask themselves: where do I go from here?Jiang Fangzhous 21 years have been filled with the kind of success most young people wouldnt dare hope for in a lifetime. She published her first book at the age of nine and has written many more since then. She is regarded as a spokesperson for her generation. However, her hopes and concerns for the future appear decidedly normal.She explains that while her fellow students are chiefly concerned with getting a job or buying an apartment, shefrets over how she can excel in her work when having limited experience of the world.However, Jiang, now a senior at the School of Journalism and Communication of Tsinghua University, notes that her peers face intense pressure and competition at school. They are expected to excel in their field of study despite limited experience, just as Jiang is expected to shine in the literary world.Young people, she says, have been forced to open their eyes to the world around them. Jiangs world has opened up, too. Shes more at ease with herself at 21, compared with when she began college.“My horizon has broadened and Im more tolerant,” she says. “As a freshman, I was desperate. I stopped people around me and asked: Is there anything in the world still worth hoping for? But now I dont do that.”Jiang says that she may not pursue writing as her main future career because she wants to try“other lifestyles”overseas travel and study touring sound particularly inviting to her. But she is concerned that many foreigners have skewed (歪曲的,倾斜的) perceptions about China.“A few days ago I overheard a conversation between two foreigners sitting next to me on a flight,” says Jiang. “They were having a heated discussion about the number of beggars in China. And how Chinese always go for petty profits. In fact, they had been in China for only a week.”Jiang believes prejudice is unavoidable, but she also maintains that Chinese and Westerners, for example, share much common ground.“We share the same principles, such as honesty and a willingness to help others,” says Jiang. “The differences between peoples are not that huge.”1.
