of american adults exercise regularlyup 12 percent from just two years ago and more than double the figure of 25 years ago. even non-exercisers believe they would be more attractive and confident if they were more active.it is hard not to get the message. the virtues of physical fitness are shown on magazine covers, postage stamps, and television ads of everything from beauty soaps to travel books. exercise as a part of daily life did not catch on until the late 1960s when research by military doctors began to show the health benefits of doing regular physical exercises. growing publicity ( 宣传) for races held in american cities helped fuel a strong interest in the ancient sport of running. although running has leveled off in recent years as americans have discovered equally rewarding-and sometimes saferforms of exercise, such as walking and swimming, running remains the most popular form of exercise.as the popularity of exercise continues to mount, so does scientific evidence of its health benefits. the key to fitness is exercising the major muscle groups vigorously (强有力地) enough to approximately double the heart rate and keep it doubled for 20 to 30 minutes at a time. doing such physical exercises three times or more a week will produce considerable improvements in physical health in about three months.60. it can be learnt from the passage that the health benefits of exercise .a. are to be further studied b. are self-evidentc. are yet to be proved d. are supported by scientific evidence61. a growing interest in sports developed after . a. an increasing number of races were held in american citiesb. research showed their health benefitsc. scientific evidence of health benefits was shown on tv adsd. people got the message from magazine covers and postage stamps62. which of the following would be the best title for the passage? a. exercisethe road to health. b. scientific evidence of health benefits.c. different forms of exercise. d. runninga popular form of sport.63. which of the following is closest in meaning to the phrase leveled off in the paragraph 2?a. reached its lowest level in popularity. b. stopped being popular.c. stopped increasing in popularity. d. become very popular.参考答案 60-63d adc *结束if you have a chance to go to finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the finnish people are. take the taxi drivers for example. taxis in finland are mostly high-class benz with a fare of two us dollars a kilometer. you can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. the driver would not show the least sign of anxiety. the dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. the most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. with such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration（登记）card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge. the finnish workers are paid by the hour. they are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. from then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly. with so many loopholes（漏洞）in everyday life, surely finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. but the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. and workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. as the finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”. 60. the underlined words in this passage means to “_”. a. be ready to help othersb. make good use of ones friends c. be a little ahead of others d. gain something at others expense 61. which of the following is not true according to the passage? a. while taking a taxi in finland, you can get off without first paying your fare. b. in a big hotel in finland, you can enjoy free meals if youre living in the hotel. c. the bosses in finland pay the employees according to registration of their working hours. d. the workers are always honest with their working hours. 62. we can learn from the passage that _. a. the finnish society is of very high moral（道德）level b. there are many loopholes in everyday life in finland c. in finland, most taxi drivers will not charge you anything d. everyone in finland is like a gentleman, for they have faith in themselves 63. which of the following is the best title of the passage? a. life in finland b. a society with “foolish” people c. what a life d. honest accounts of the finns 参考答案60、d cab *结束cno one knows yet the accurate number of lives which have been lost in this terrible fire .but reports suggest that it is more than one hundred .a wall of flames fifty feet high and at least one hundred and fifty miles wide is now racing towards the
