| Half an hour of exercise a day can add an extra five years on your life, a ground breaking research has revealed.Health experts said that walking or cycling gently has massive longterm benefits.According to the World Health Organization, research carried out in Britain and Denmark shows that gentle workouts (锻炼) and even housework every day can boost life spans by as much as five years. The news will provide encouragement for those couch_potatoes to start taking exercise.Britain is in the grip of an obesity epidemic (肥胖症), with just 35% of men and 24% of women taking regular exercise. "Encouraging people to be physically active every day has so many health benefits, " said Dr.Marc Danzon, WHO regional director for Europe."These include reducing the risk of developing certain diseases and of becoming obese, as well as contributing to physical coordination, balance, strength and mental wellbeing.It is a very costeffective public health tool." The organization is so concerned that the public is not getting the message on exercise that it will launch a "Move for Health" campaign to boost public awareness. "The WHO encourages adults to take at least 30 minutes of moderate physical exercise a day, defined as any body movement that results in energy expenditure (消耗), " said Dr Danzon."This includes walking, cycling, playing, housework, climbing stairs as well as sports." He added that children should take at least 60 minutes of exercise every day. 1. The underlined phrase "couch potatoes" probably means______. A. lazy bones who spend a lot of time sitting B. people who like eating potatoes C. persons who usually rest on a couch D. players who take exercise with potatoes 2. Taking physical exercise every day benefits one's health in the following aspects except________. A. strengthening body coordination B. developing certain diseases and becoming obese C. keeping body balance D. keeping fit mentally 3. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage? A. Children should take more physical exercise than adults every day. B. The WHO has tried to improve people's knowledge about exercise by launching a campaign. C. People with an obesity epidemic in Britain seldom take regular exercise. D. Physical exercise brings the best possible profit to public health at the lowest cost. 4. The passage mainly tells us________. A. how to take exercise B. what the WHO is C. how to lose weight D. how to add years to your life |

| "When one of the doctors criticizes (批评) me, I get defensive.I feel like a child again, being scolded, and I want to explain that I'm not wrong, " says Viola, a nurse.This is a common reaction to criticism, but not a good one.There are better ways of dealing with criticism. Try to be objective (客观的). When Sol was criticized by his new employer for not having made a sale, Sol's reaction was to feel sorry for himself."I had put everything I had into making that sale, " Sol says."And I felt that I had failed as a person.I had to learn through experience not to react like that to each fail ure." Take time to cool down.Rather than react at once to criticism, take some time to think over what was said.Your first question should be whether the criticism is fair from the other person's position.The problem may be a simple misunderstanding of what you did or your reasons for doing it. Take positive action.After you cool down, consider what you can do about the situation.The best answer may be "nothing". "I finally realized that my boss was having personal problems and taking them out on me because I was there, " says Sheila."His criticisms didn't really have anything to do with my work, so nothing I said or did was going to change them." In Sheila's case, the best way to deal with it was to leave her job.However, that's an extreme reaction. You may simply explain your opinion without expecting an indepth discussion.You may even decide that the battle isn't worth fighting this time.The key, in any case, is to have a reasonable plan. 1. When Sol was criticized by his employer, he________. A. argued bitterly with his employer B. was angry and gave up his job C. was sorry for what he did D. was sad and selfpitying 2. According to the writer, you should take time to think about criticism because________. A. people may have a mistaken idea of what you did B. you should welcome other people's opinions C. people may discuss it with you in depth D. you need time to understand yourself 3. When the writer says that "The best answer may be 'nothing'", he means you may decide________. A. to take no notice of the criticism B. to argue with your boss C. you need to change your job D. you've done nothing wrong 4. The writer thinks Sheila might decide to leave her job because her boss________. A. didn't like her appearance B. refused to change his opinion C. made an unreasonable criticism D. refused to talk to her about the criticism |
