disease and other health problems. running may also help you live longer.recently, researchers studied more than 55,000 adults. about a quarter of the adults have a good habit of running. the study found these runners were much healthier than non-runners. in fact, the runners lived, on average, three years longer than the non-runners.running may be good exercise, but it can be difficult on the body. here are commonly shared ideas among fitness experts(健身专家) to lower the risk of injury(受伤) for people who are new to running. take it easy. do not run too much, too soon or too fast. most people get running injuries when they push themselves too hard. the body needs time to get used to increases in distance(里程) or speed. get good running shoes.there is no single best shoe for every runner. you should find the shoe that offers the best fit and support for your feet. more importantly, you should have a new pair of shoes every 500 to 800 kilometers. take good notes.take time after each run to write down notes about what you did and how you felt. look for things that happen again and again. for example, you may find that your knees hurt when you run sometimes. but perhaps you feel great when you have a rest between running days. these notes will help you make the best plan for running.( )4. the writer wants to tell us in the first paragraph _. a. good health comes from running b. running is the best exercisec. health problem can be solved by good exercised. not all exercise is equally good( )5. in the second paragraph, we know _. a. a good habit of running may help you live

distance or speed depend on _. a. what the fitness experts say b. whether you have the best shoes c. how your body feels d. why you start running( )7. the purpose of taking notes is to _.a. remind you of where to have new shoesb. help you find the way of running that fits youc. take a rest between running daysd. help you do some research on exercisecimagine one day, the water taps in your house stop running. you have to buy water from shops. and still there isnt enough for everyone. your mother has to save the familys shower water to do other things. would you be able to stand that kind of life?probably not. but thats what kids in yemen are experiencing. experts said yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. according to a report, the capital, sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply(供应). hannan, an 18-year-old from lahej, told times: “in a good week well have a water supply all week. but then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.”hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. they can buy water from the shops or from the water trucks. private companies own the trucks. they travel around the city every day to sell waterat very high prices. “a lot of people cant afford it,” she said.the average (平均) person in yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic(立方) meters of water per year. that is far below the international water poverty(贫困) line of 1,000 cubic meters.the government is thinking of making use of seawater. but it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of yemen.( )8. _ is the name of the capital city of yemen. a. sana b. lahej c. hannan d. times( )9. a report shows that sana will have _ as early

moneyd. lahej is a beautiful placedlondonscientists have found an unusual way to prevent our planet from overheating: move it to a cooler spot. all you have to do is to send a few comets (彗星) in the direction of earth, and its orbit (轨道)will be changed. our world will then be sent moving into a safer older part of the solar system.this idea for improving our climate comes from a group of us nasa (美国航空航天局) engineers and american astronomers. they say their plan could add another six billion years to the useful lifetime of our planethopefully doubling its working life.the plan put forward by dr. laughlin, and his colleagues don korycansky and fred adams, needs carefully directing a comet or asteroid (小行星) so that it passes close by our planet and sends some of its gravitational energy (重力势能) to earth. “earths orbital speed would increase as a result and we would move to a higher orbit away from the sun,” laughlin said.engineers would then direct their comet so that it passed close to jupiter(木星) or saturn (土星). the comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets. later its orbit would bring it back to earth, and the process would be repeated.in the short term, the plan provides an ideal way to worldwide warming, although the team was actually worried about a much greater danger. the sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so “seriously compromise” our biosphere (生物圈)by cooking us.thats why the group decided to try to save earth.the plan has one or two worrying sides, however. for a start, space engineers would have to be very careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards earth. the smallest miscalculation (误算)in orbit could fire it straight at earthwith deadly results.there is also the question of the moon. as the present issue of scientific american magazine points out, if earth was pushed out of its present location, it is “most likely the moon would be stripped (剥离)away from earth,” it states. this would greatly change our planets climate.12. what makes the scientists plan to move earth?a. a few comets are moving to the direction of earth.b. earths working life is coming to an end soon.c. earth will become too hot for mankind to keep alive.d. the moon is moving farther and farther away from earth.13. if the plan is successful, earth will have a working life of _ years.a. 12 billionb. 6 billion c. 18 billion d. 24 billion14. what serious problems might the plan cause according to the passage?a. the comet might hit earth and man might lose the moon.b. earth might be moved too far away and man might die because of the coldness.c. the comet might hit jupiter or saturn and never return to earth.d. earths working life might be greatly shortened.15. what does the underlined word “compromise” mean?a. provide b. benefit (收益) c. share d. endanger四、根据句意, 用括号内所给单词或中文意思填空。 1. many wild animals are_ (appear) because of peoples hunting.2. there is no _ (true) in what he says, im
