Joggers have been found to live an average of six years longer than those who dont jog.However, youll have to run for at least one hour a week for benefit, according to a new study in Denmark.Researchers found that jogging was associated with a 44 per cent reduction in the relative risk of death for those over 35 years compared with deaths among those who did not run.The same benefit applied to both men and women.The 44 per cent reduction translates to an age-adjusted survival benefit of 6.2 years in men and 5.6 years in women, according to Dr. Peter Schnohr, chief cardiologist from the Copenhagen City Heart study.Furthermore, the joggers lives are not only longer but happier too as those who ran reported an overall sense of well-being, said Schnohr.The results of our research allow us to definitively answer the question of whether jogging is good for your health, Schnohr said in a statement.We can say with certainty that regular jogging increases longevity. The good news is that you dont actually need to do that much to reap the benefits, he continued.The study also found that the optimum benefit of jogging was for those who jogged at a slow-to-average pace for between an hour and two and a half hours spread over two or three weekly sessions.Researchers then compared deaths among the joggers among the non-joggers in the main study pool of almost 20,000.Over 35 years, 122 joggers died compared with 10,158 non-joggers. All the participants involved with the Copenhagen City Heart Studyhad their cholesterol, blood pressure, blood glucose, and BMI, measured and they were questioned about smoking, alcohol consumption, education, and income.68.

For instance, some people believe that wearing glasses too soon weakens the eyes. But there is no evidence to show that the structure of eyes is changed by wearing glasses at a young age. Wearing the wrong glasses, however, can prove harmful. Studies show that for adults there is no danger, but children can develop loss of vision if they have glasses inappropriate for their eyes.We have all heard some of the common myths about how eyesight gets bad. Most people believe that reading in dim light causes poor eyesight, but that is untrue. Too little light makes the eyes work harder, so they do get tired and strained. Eyestrain also results from reading a lot, reading in bed, and watching too much television. However, although eyestrain may cause some pain or headaches, it does not permanently damage eyesight.Another myth about eyes is that they can be replaced, or transferred from one person to another. They are close to one million nerve fibers(纤维) that connect the eyeball to the brain, so it is impossible to attach them all in a new person. Only certain parts of the eye can be replaced. But if we keep clearing up the myths and learning more about the eyes, some day a full transplant may be possible.72. If a child wears appropriate glasses, _.A. he will lose sightB. the structure of his eyes will be changed C. it is harmfulD. the structure of his eyes will keep the same as before73. If an adult wears inappropriate glasses, _.A. it will make no difference to his eyesB he will suffer a lot from the loss of visionC. his eyes will be weakenedD. the structure of his eyes will be changed74.

A. H. M. Farook, UNICEFs operations area officer for China and Mongolia said that China “can be very satisfied to tell the whole world what can be done with limited resources to help its children to grow healthily and happily.” Chinas child population makes up one-fifth of the worlds total. “The reason behind the tremendous(巨大的) achievement is Chinas long tradition of caring for children both at home and in society,” he said. “Whats more is that Chinese people have always given special attention to children who are in special need.” The UN official made the remarks when addressing a group of 50 children and staff from the Beijing Childrens Welfare Home at the Shangri-la Hotel, Beijing. The hotel invited the orphans to share snacks, sing, dance and play games at a park inside the hotel for a “Share the Sunshine” party, as a prelude(前奏) to celebrations to mark the Childrens Day. The Beijing childrens Welfare Home, set up soon after New China was founded in 1949, has at present more than 400 children. A leading official of the welfare institution said that the children live a happy life and that the agency spends 400500 yuan a month for an average orphan. An average Chinese workers earned 440 yuan a month during the first quarter this year. Gu Xiaojin, deputy secretary-general of the China Youth Development Foundation(CYDF), said people from all walks of life have contributed to the welfare of the Chinese children. She said that CYDF set up the Project Hope in 1989, which calls on people across the country to donate money to help poor children to continue their schooling. By the end of last year, she said, CYDF had collected nearly 700 million yuan in donations, which has helped the establishment of 2, 074 Hope primary schools and enabled more than 1. 25 million dropouts to return to school classrooms. Three “Hope Stars” also attended the party. They were model teenagers chosen among students who are economically supported by the Project Hope to further their nine-year compulsory(义务) studies in the poverty-stricken regions. They will be torchbearers(火炬接力者) for the Chinese Team for the up coming Atlanta Olympic Games this year. 1. Children can grow healthily and happily as long as _.

Chinese people always give special attention to children who are in special need 答案解析：答案为B。本题为细节题。由第三段 “The reason behind the tremendous achievement is Chinas long tradition of caring for children both at home and in society,” 可知，儿童能够健康快乐地成长的条件是社会和家庭共同的关心，故B选项符合文意。A选项只强调了父母的作用，C选项只强调了学校和教师的作用，都太片面，均不选；D选项的 “always”一词显得太过绝对化，故不选。2. Every year the Beijing Childrens Welfare Home spends _ on the orphans A. 1, 920, 000 yuan B. 2, 160, 000 yuan C. Over 2, 400, 000 yuan D. 2, 200, 000 yuan or so答案解析：答案为D。本题为推理计算题。题干要求推算出Beijing Childrens Welfare Home在孤儿身上一年的花费，由第六段 “The Beijing childrens Welfare Home, has at present more than 400 children.” 和第七段 “ the agency spends 400500 yuan a month for an average orphan.” 可以推算，一年的费用在1, 920, 000元到2, 400, 000元之间，然而费用不会恰好是2, 160, 000元，只有D选项的答案最为准确。3. CYDF collected 700 million yuan with the purpose of _. A. reducing dropouts B. helping homeless orphans C. supporting the Chinese Team for the coming Atlanta Olympic Games D. establishing 2, 074 Hope primary schools all over the country答案解析：答案为A。本题为细节推理题。由倒数第二段 “ By the end of last year, she said, CYDF had collected nearly 700 million yuan in donations, which has helped the establishment of 2, 074 Hope primary schools and enabled more than 1. 25 million dropouts to return to school classrooms.”可知，CYDF筹集的资金用于帮助建立希望工程小学，让失学儿童返校，A选项和D选项都是文章所提到的，然而A选项“减少失学儿童”是这笔资金的最终目的，D选项是达到此目的的方式，故答案为A。4. We can infer from the text that _. A. Every Chinese child has its own special need, so we should pay special attention to each. B. All the children in the poverty-stricken regions of China are too poor to go to school. C. Ever since liberation. the Chinese Communist Party has been concerned about the growth of the younger generation. D.

It is possible that this passage was written in _. A. 1992 B. 1996 C. 1998 D. 2000答案解析：答案为B。本题为细节题。由最后一段最后一句话 “They will be torchbearers for the Chinese Team for the up coming Atlanta Olympic Games this year.”可知，此文章写于亚特兰大奥运会举办的那一年，而这年是在1996年。故答案为B。- 9 -
