assumptions 假设 in our culture is that if you exercise you will lose weight I exercise all the time but I still have got fat Why does this happen More than 45 million Americans now belong to a health club up from 23 million in 1993 We spend some 19 billion a year on sports Of course some people join the health club but never go Still as one main study the Minnesota Heart Survey found more of us at least say we exercise regularly However the number of fat people has risen greatly a third of Americans are fat and another third count as overweight Yes it s highly possible that those of us who regularly go to the sports center would weigh even more if we exercised less But like many other people I get hungry 第 6 页 共 15 页 after I exercise so I often eat more on the days I exercise than on the days I don t Could exercise actually be keeping me from losing weight People believe that exercise is important for weight control is actually rather new Doctors used to advise not to exercise too much particularly for older adults who might hurt themselves Today doctors encourage even their oldest patients to exercise because people who regularly exercise are at a lower risk for most illnesses especially heart problems They less often develop cancer and many other illnesses but the role of exercise in weight loss has been completely overestimated 评估过高 In general for weight loss exercise is pretty useless says an exercise researcher 1 From the passage we can learn that A more than 45 million Americans now go to the sports center regularly B the number of overweight people has doubled since 1993 C some Americans join a health club but never go there D Americans waste too much money each year on sports 2 According to the writer people might put on weight because A they have the habit of going to the health club regularly B they eat the same food when they do not exercise C they exercise less than required by doctors D they eat more after they exercise 3 What may be the best title for this passage A Overweight Is Not Good for Your Health B Exercise Won t Make You Thin C Health Club Is Part of American Lifestyle D Fatness Is a Social Problem in America 第 7 页 共 15 页 13 10 分
