Scientists are increasingly warning that sitting for prolonged periods-even if you also exercise regularly-could be bad for your health. And it doesnt matter where the sitting takes place -at the office, at school, in the car or before a puter or TV-just the overall number of hours it occurs. Several studies suggest people who spend most of their days sitting are more likely to be fat, have a heart attack or even die.In an editorial published this week in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, Elin EkblomBak of the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences suggested that authorities rethink how they define physical activity to highlight the dangers of sitting.While health officials have issued guidelines remending minimum amounts of physical activity, they havent suggested people try to limit how much time they spend in a seated position.After four hours of sitting, the body starts to send harmful signals, Ekblom-Bak said. She explained that genes regulating(调节) the amount of glucose（葡萄糖） and fat in the body start to shut down.Even for people who exercise, spending long periods of time sitting at a desk is still harmful. Tim Armstrong, a physical activity expert at the World Health Organization, said people who exercise every day-but still spend a lot of time sitting-might get more benefit if that exercise were spread across the day, rather than in a single bout.（一回）Still, in a study published last year that tracked more than 17,000 Canadians for about a dozen years, researchers found people who sat more had a higher death risk, independently of whether or not they exercised.We dont have enough evidence yet to say how much sitting is bad, said Peter Katzmarzyk of the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, who led the Canadian study. But it seems the more you can get up and interrupt this sedentary behavior, the better.Figures from a U.S. survey in xx found Americans spend more than half their time sitting, from working at their desks to sitting in cars.Experts said more research is needed to figure out just how much sitting is dangerous, and what might be possible to offset those effects.People should keep exercising because that has a lot of benefits, Ekblom-Bak said. But when theyre in the office, they should try to interrupt sitting as often as possible, she said. 1What is the best title for the text?A. Not Sitting Too Much While Working B.

From 1893 he lived with his family in a house in Austin, Texas, which is now a museum. Visitors to Austin can see the house. It was saved from destruction (破坏) and turned into a museum in1934. The museum is a good way to learn about the interesting life of the American writer.William Porter rented this house in Austin and lived there with his wife Athol and daughter Margaret for about two years. Many objects in the museum belonged to the Porters. Others did not. An important piece in the room is the original photograph over here. It was taken there in the house about 1895. The piano there goes back to the 1860s. His wife took lessons on it when she first moved to Austin.Porter did not start his career as a successful writer. He worked at a farm, land office and bank. He also loved words and writing. The museum has a special proof of Porters love of language - his dictionary. It is said that he had read every word in that dictionary.Later William Porter was forced to leave Austin because he was charged with financial wrongdoing at the bank and lost his job. Because he was afraid of a trail (审判), he left the country secretly. But he returned because his wife was dying. After her death, he faced the trial and became a criminal. He served three and a half years in a prison in Ohio.William Porter would keep his time in prison a secret. But there was one good thing about it. It provided him with time to write. By the time he was freed, he had published 14 stories and became well known as O.Henry.Porter later moved to New York City and found great success there. He published over 180 stories in the last eight years of his life.5O.Henrys house in Austin has been well kept up till now so that _. A. Americans can explore their history B more visitors will be attracted to AustinC. visitors can learn about O.Henrys life D. it can show the way of life in the 1860s6What do we know about the piano in the house?A. It was hated by Porters daughter. B. It has a long history of about 150 years.C. Porters wife gave music lessons on it. D. Porter usually created music on it.7How does the museum prove (证明) Porter was fond of language?A. With a dictionary he used. B. With the records they keep.C. Using the books they wrote. D. Using the photograph they keep.8Why did Porter escape from Austin?A. He didnt want to lose his job. B. He didnt want to make trouble.C. He meant to save his wifes life. D. He was charged with a crime.9From the last two paragraphs we know that _.A. Porter became famous suddenly B. Porter spent his time in prison writingC. Porter suffered a lot from his time in prisonD. life in prison provided what he could write for PorterCI had about 10 minutes to exercise before I had to pick up my two older daughters from school yesterday. It was a busier day than usual for me with a couple of meetings besides my regular work.Years ago, I would have put off my workout and would have left things for the next day. But since it was a busy day as well, I knew that I may not have all that much time either. So, I picked up my kettle-bell (哑铃) and went to town for 4 minutes.See, 4 minutes, if thats all youve got, is enough to give your body a great fat-burning exercise. How did I get a killer workout in 4 minutes? I used a training workout discovered 10 years ago by a Japanese Sports Scientist called a TABATA.It includes 20-second periods of warm-up, followed by 10-second periods of rest and 4-minute straight exercise. How is a 4-minute exercise able to burn fat? It all depends on the quality of work you do. Not on the quantity. Heres how I did it yesterday.You should never forget your warm-up. A TABATA workout is 20 seconds of 2-arm Kettle-bell swings, 10 seconds rest, 20 seconds push-ups, and 10 seconds rest. You should do those 4 rounds. Thats it. I was done in a total time of 8 minutes by the time and when I got to school my heart was still pumping pretty hard.A healthy body is needed for studying and working, and efficiency (效率) is the key to building a great body in the least amount (数量) of time possible and you cant get more efficient than a 4-minute workout.10We can learn from the passage that the author _.A. is busy with his workB. has a weak body nowC. has two children in allD. is a manager in a film11The underlined phrase “went to town” in Paragraph 2 means “_”.A. put off doing something B. went to a very small cityC. did something with interest D. hated to do something12What is the most important thing in taking exercise according to the author?A.

Weve worked to teach our children that drugs are dangerous, illegal and wrong.Today, I want to talk to you about the historic opportunity we now have to protect our nations children from an even more deadly threat. 17 Smoking kills more people every day than AIDS, alcohol, car accidents, murders, drugs and fires bined. Nearly 90% of those smokers lit their first cigarette before they turned 18. Consider this: 3,000 children start to smoke every day illegally, and 1,000 of them will die sooner because of it. 18 For more than five years weve worked to stop our children from smoking before they begin to try, starting a nationwide campaign to educate them about the dangers of smoking to reduce their access to tobacco products, and to restrict tobacco panies from advertising to young people. 19 That means if we act now, we have it in our power to stop three million children from smoking and save a million lives as a result. So this is an emergency that needs quick action of all of you. 20 .ASince I took office, Ive done much to protect our children from harm.BThis is a national tragedy（悲剧）that every American should help to prevent.CThe quicker action we take, the fewer teen smokers there will be.DWe have to educate them about the dangers of smoking.EIt is smoking that is more terrible than drugs.Fpared with other diseases, drugs kill more people every day.GIf we do these, well cut teen smoking by almost half over the next five years.第二节完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)A few months ago, I was picking up the children at school.

Too much homework being given by school teachers is the main cause. Another cause lies at students bad habits. Some students are absent-minded while doing their homework, and some wasting their after-class time. The third cause is some students have to get up earlier on weekdays to get to school which far away from home. Experts think the amount of homeworks for the students should be cut down. Beside, teachers should encourage their students make good use of their spare time.完形21C 22B 23C 24A 25D 26A 27B 28C 29D 30A 31C 32C 33D 34B 35C 36A 37B 38D 39B 40C阅读 （A）41C 42B 43D 44B (B) 45C 46B 47A 48D 49B(C) 50A 51C52B (D) 53-55 CBA 5660 A E B G C单词拼写1. reward 2. educated 3. lawyer 4. mean 5. devoted 6. equal 7. vote 8. quality 9. peaceful 10. willing改错A survey basing on 1,000 students found that 80% of senior students slept less basedthan nine hours every night.
