commitment. a commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety, increases selfconfidence and energy, extends life and above all improves my body shape. this is the point where a smile appears on my face as i look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right. its through commitment and sweat that i can make a difference within myself inside and out.21why is there a smile on the authors face in the morning?a. because she sees her family sleeping peacefully.b. because she finishes her favorite exercise.c. because she enjoys the interesting dvd.d. because she feels a sense of achievement.解析：细节理解题。由第一段最后一句“its not a smile because the dvd is over, but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.”可知，早上作者脸上露出笑容是因为锻炼给她带来了成就感。答案：d22which of the following is true according to paragraph 2?a. she doesnt treat others politely.b. she likes to make others surprised.c. others dont understand what she does.d. others try to help her by offering her food.解析：细节理解题。由第二段中的“they raise their eyebrows, surprised by my no thank you， or by my choice to have a salad.”可知，别人不能理解她的做法。答案：c23what does the underlined word “commitment” in the last paragraph mean?a. good health. b. firm belief.c. a strong power. d. a regular habit.解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句的上下文语境可推知，画线词在文中意为“坚定的信念”，故选b项。答案：b24what can we learn about the author from the text?a. she acts in a strange way.b. she wants to look different from others.c. she aims to develop a good body shape.d. she has difficulty getting along with others.解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段的“above all improves my body shape”以及“. that now fit just right”可推知，作者锻炼的目的是塑造良好的体形。答案：cbenjoying sunshine may be the secret of staying young, british scientists have studied. vitamin d is produced naturally by the skin in response to sunlight and may help to slow the ageing process and protect against heart disease, according to the study. researchers from kings college london studied 2, 160 women aged between 18 and 79, looking at their telomeres (端粒) a biological marker of ageing found in dna. as people get old, their telomeres get shorter and they become more susceptible to certain illness.but the study found women with high levels vitamin d had comparatively longer telomeres a sign of being biologically younger and healthier. the study suggests vitamin d may help to slow the ageing process of dna，and therefore the ageing process as a whole.lead researcher dr. brent richards said, “these results are exciting because they demonstrate for the first time that people who have higher levels of vitamin d may age more slowly than people with lower levels of vitamin d. this could help to explain how vitamin d has a protective effect on ageing related disease, such as heart disease and cancer.” he said further studies are required to confirm the findings.professor tim spector，a coauthor of the report，added, “although it might sound funny, its possible that the same sunshine which may increase our risk cancer may also have a healthy effect on the general ageing process.”vitamin d made by the action of sunlight on the skin accounts for 90 percent of the bodys supply, but lower levels can also be obtained through food such as fish, eggs and breakfast cereals. other studies have suggested vitamin d plays a key role in protecting against cancer and heart disease.25in order to produce more vitamin d，we may _.a. increase our outdoor activitiesb. take physical exercise regularlyc. take in food that is rich in vitamin dd. stay in the sun in an appropriate degree解析：根据文章第一段的内容可知，英国科学家发现，适度地晒太阳可能是永葆青春的秘诀。答案：d26we learn from the text that women with high levels of vitamin d _.a. look younger than othersb. are much stronger than othersc. are never infected with illnessd. have relatively shorter telomeres解析：根据文章第一段的内容可知，体内维生素d含量较高的女性的端粒相对较长，这表明她们比较年轻和健康。答案：a27dr. brent richards would agree that _.a. higher levels of vitamin d must prevent heart diseaseb. longer telomeres make it possible to cure cancerc. vitamin d plays an active role in resisting ageingd. telomeres slow down the ageing process of dna解析：这项研究的主要负责人richards的观点是：体内维生素d含量较高的人比体内维生素d含量较低的人衰老得慢。由此可见，维生素d在抵制衰老方面起着积极的作用。其他选项的陈述错误。答案：c28which would be the best title for the text?a. the new function of vitamin db. sunshine helps to keep you youngc. new finding from british scientistsd. vitamin d may help age more slowly解析：a项和c项过于笼统不能揭示文章的大意，可先排除。而d项的陈述没有涉及人体90%的维生素d来自阳光照射的内容，也可排除，因此选b项。答案：bcwould you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook from scratch? have you been doing internet shopping rather than going to the stores? what cant you be bothered to do?a study into how lazy british people are has found more than half of adults are so lazy that theyd catch the lift rather than climb two fights of stairs.just over 2,000 people were quizzed by independent researchers at nuffield healthbritains largest health charity. the results were astonishing.about one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken, they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up.more than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus. worryingly，of the 654 respondents with children, 64% said they were often too tired to play with them.this led the report to conclude that its no wonder that one in six children in the uk are classified as obese (very fat) before they start school.dr sarah dauncey，medical director of nuffield health, said: “people need to get fitter, not just for their own sake but for the sake of their families, friends and evidently (明显地) their pets too.”“if we dont start to take control of this problem, a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most basic of tasks.”and scotlands largest city, glasgow, was shamed as the most inactive city in the uk，with 75% surveyed admitting they do not get enough exercise, followed closely by birmingham and southampton，both with 67%.the results cause serious challenges for the national health service，where obesityrelated illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of pounds every year.29what causes children in the uk to be obese?a. eating ready meal.b. watching tv.c. doing internet shopping.d. being lazy.解析：由第五段的“worryingly, of the 654 respondents with children, 64% said they were often too tired to play with them.”以及第六段可知，英国孩子肥胖的原因是因为成年人太累了以至于不与孩子们玩，所以导致孩子们缺乏运动而变胖。答案：d30what can be inferred from the passage?a. british people are too lazy to do anything.b. internet shopping will do harm to your health.c. many people would not run to catch a bus in britain.d. people should be more active and take regular exercise to keep fit.解析：由第七段和第八段可知，如果我们不开始控制这个问题，整个一代将变得太不健康以至于不能进行甚至最基本的任务。所以d项是正确的。答案：d31all the following are among the most lazy cities in the uk except _.a. glasgow b. birminghamc. nuffield d. southampton解析：由倒数第二段可知，英国最不活跃的城市有glasgow、birmingham和southampton。故选c项。答案：cdeating too much fatty food, exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. but there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately：the air you breathe.previous studies have linked high exposure (暴露) to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problems，but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke (中风) within as little as a few hours after exposure. in one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants (污染物) were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. a separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the u. s. environmental protection agency (epa)considers to be of “moderate” (良好) quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.the authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. however, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. so stricter regulation by the epa of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.32the text mainly discusses the relationship between _.a. heart problems and air qualityb. heart problems and exercisingc. heart problems and smokingd. heart problems and fatty food解析：细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句，可知a项符合题意。答案：a33the underlined word “modest” in paragraph 3 most probably means _.a. relatively high b. extremely lowc. relatively low d. extremely high解析：词义猜测题。根据后文“compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure”可知选c项。答案：c34what can we learn from the text?a. eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.b. the epa conducted many studies on air quality.c. moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking.d. stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.解析：推理判断题。根据第三
