New research shows that if you cut down on the time you spend sitting, you might live longer. Sitting less than three hours a day might extend your life by two years. Cutting television time to less than two hours a day can add one point four years to life.The human body is designed to move. The fact is just the opposite. Modern lifestyles and office jobs rarely give us the chance to move around. We sit while were eating; we sit in the car; we sit while we are watching TV. And most of us sit for many hours at work. Sitting is something we do all the time. On average, Americans sit for four and a half to five hours a day. But that does not make sitting good for us.Though you may exercise often, that does not mean you can sit for the rest of your waking hours. We cant throw away physical activity. It is extremely important. Even if you exercise for 30 minutes a day, what goes on in the other 23 and a half hours a day is also very important.Changes are coming to some offices, especially in the design of desks. A “standing desk” lets people stand while they work. Another new design is called the “treadmill desk”. It is an exercise machine that lets you walk slowly in one place. Even some U.S. schools begin to experiment with desks that are part bicycle to keep children moving.Many companies may not buy a standing desk for everybody. However, they may get five standing desks or a treadmill desk for their employees and put them in a certain place where people can go for an hour a day to answer their emails or talk on the phone. Experts suggest some other activities: take a walk at lunchtime; walk to the offices and talk directly instead of emailing colleagues. All these activities may help you live longer.8Why should people stand up according to the new research?A. They should touch their toes.B. Standing more can cure some diseases.C.

Mr. Blickez had told us that Elsie was the meanest bull in the township, maybe even the county, and we believed him. But the hotter it got, the more we thought there was something fishy about his claim. For one thing, we remembered Mr. Blickez liked telling tall tales; for another, Elsie seemed like an odd name for a bull.Finally, I talked Mom into asking permission for us to walk through the pasture, but then another problem surfaced. Mom said she would talk to Mr. Blickez if we would take our cousin Joanie along with us. Joanie was almost two years older than me and a head taller. If her teasing ever got around my grade school, it would be all over for me. In fact, I still had a headache from a quarrel with her that morning. “Im not going swimming with that dumb girl cousin.” I told my mom.“Either Joanie goes with, or you stay home alone,” Mom said in her serious tone. I gave in and we set out. On our way across the pasture, Walt yelled suddenly. Elsie had approached him quietly and was licking(舔) his back. Joanie and I dove under the wire fence, but while I was on the ground I looked up and saw that Elsie wasnt a big mean bull after all. She was going to keep licking my brothers back as long as he stood still.We had many good days growing up and visiting our secret swimming hole guarded by the so-called “big mean bull”. And as it turned out, for a girl cousin, Joanie hasnt been too bad. Shes been one of my best friends over the years.12Whats the meaning of the underlined word “fishy” in paragraph 2?A. Funny B.

In fact people have wondered about these strange places for long. 16 However, they have been valued as necessary to a persons health and happiness.Historically, people thought dreams contained messages from God. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams scientifically, believing that they tell about a persons character. 17 He believed that dreams allow a person to express fantasies or fears, which would be socially unacceptable in real life.The second theory to become popular was Carl Jungs compensation theory. Jung, a former student of Freud, said that the purpose of a dream is not to hide something, but rather to communicate it to the dreamer. 18 Thus, people who think too highly of themselves may dream about falling; those who think too little of themselves dream of being heroes.Using more recent research, William Domhoff from the University of California found that dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop in humans. 19 Until they reach the age of five, they can not express very well what their dreams are about. Once people become adults, there is little or no change in their dreams. The dreams of men and women differ. For instance, the characters that appear in the dreams of men are often other men, and often involve physical aggression.The meaning of dreams continues to be difficult to understand. 20 If you dream that a loved one is going to die, do not panic. The dream may have meaning, but it does not mean that your loved one is going to die.A. Dreams make up for what is lacking in waking life.B. But anyway, people should not take their dreams as reality.C. It gives scientists chances to better understand human mind.D. They have been considered as meaningless nighttime journeys.E. First, there was Sigmund Freuds theory.F. They think their mind is trying to tell them something.G. Children do not dream as much as adults.第二部分：完形填空（共20小题；共20分）When I arrived at 6 a.m. in the large hospital kitchen, Rose was already checking name tags(标签) on the trays(托盘) against the patient roster.
