22、that sitting for prolonged periods even if you also exercise regularly could be   1  for your health. And it doesn't matter where the sitting takes place at the office, at school, in the car or before a computer or TV just the overall number of hours it   2   .

23、 Research is preliminary, but several studies   3  people who spend most of their days sitting are more likely to be fat, have a heart attack or even die.In an editorial   4  this week in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, Elin Ekblom-Bak of the Swedish School of S

24、port and Health Sciences suggested that authorities rethink how they define   5  activity to highlight the dangers of sitting.While health officials have issued guidelines   6  minimum amounts of physical activity, they haven't suggested people try to limit how much

25、 time they spend in a seated   7  ."After four hours of sitting, the body starts to send   8  signals," Ekblom-Bak said. She explained that genes regulating the amount of glucoseand fat in the   9  start to shut down.Even for people who  &#

26、160;10   , spending long stretches 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   11  still spend a lot of time sitting might get more benefit if that exercise were

29、 could be   18  dangerous."Still, in a study published last year that tracked more than 17,000 Canadians for about a dozen years, researchers found people who sat   19  had a higher death risk, independently of whether or not they exercised.Figures from a US survey

30、 in 2003-2004 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    20  just how much sitting is dangerous, and what might be possible to offset those effects.(   ) 1. A. bad &#
