The participants completed a sprint（短距离快速跑） for 30 seconds followed by 30 seconds of recovery for a total of 15 minutes both outdoors and on a treadmill. Oxygen use and exercise intensity were measured after both types of running.The findings were published in the journal of Applied Physiology, Nutrition and Metabolism. Results revealed that when on a treadmill, runners use significantly lower amounts of oxygen, suggesting less effort is required. Therefore runners must move 15 percent faster on a treadmill to burn the same amount of calories as exercising outdoors, the study stated. The study authors wrote, A 15 per cent increase in running speed during a period of stopping and starting often in high intensity treadmill training session is the best possible solution to reaching the same physiological responses as an outdoor training session.Although the study did not speculate why treadmill running appears to be needing less effort and energy, previous research suggests the moving belt of a treadmill moves joggers forward, causing them to move faster. Exercising indoors also means gym-goers do not have to fight with steep hills or wind resistance.Michael Silverman, director of rehabilitation and wellness （康复科）at Northern Westchester Hospital in New York, said, “Outdoors, you are changing surfaces constantly, fighting the wind, and making quick and sudden starts and stops, which will lead to increased caloric burn.” Shake magazine reported. And while we dont recommend running in extreme temperatures, it is worth noting that your body burns extra calories to regulate your body temperature, he says.24. Where can you find the specific findings of the study?. .A. In Paragraph 2B. In Paragraph 3C. In Paragraph 4D. In Paragraph 525. What can we know about the study?A . Its participants were all 21 years old .B . Michael is one of the researchers.C . It revealed why treadmill running consumes less calories .D . It took oxygen use and exercise intensity into consideration .26 . Why does running on a treadmill seem easier according to the study ?A . The runners need less energy.B . The runners can usually get enough oxygen .C . The moving belt pushes joggers forward .D . The intensity of running on the treadmill is more stable .27 . What does the underlined word speculate mean ?A. concludeB. researchC. opposeD. doubtCWe were sitting in her classroom. giggling each other and talking about the latest information of the day. Mrs Virginia De View, whose physical appearance made her an easy target for snickers(窃笑)and cruel jokes among students, cleared her throat and asked us to be silent.Now, Mrs. Virginia De View said smiling, we are going to discover our professions.” The class seemed to be greatly surprised. We were only 13 and 14 years old!Yes, you will all be searching for your future professions. she said.“You will have to do a research paper on your upcoming career. Each of you will have to interview someone in your field, plus give an oral report.Finally, I picked print journalism, and interviewed a true-blue newspaper reporter in the flesh. After a few days, I gave my oral report totally from memory in class. I got an A on the entire project.Years later, I forgot all about Virginia De View and the careers we selected. I was in college looking around for a new career. but with no success. Then I remembered Virginia De View and my desire at 13 to be a journalist. And I called my parents. They didnt stop me. They just reminded me how competitive the field was. This was true. But journalism did something to me; it was in my blood. For the past 12 years, Ive had the most incredible and satisfying reporting career .I get asked all the time: “How did you pick journalism?”“Well, you see, there was this teacher.” I always start out. Virginia Deview will probably never know without her help, I would not have become a journalist and a writer. I wonder now how many other students benefited from that career project.I believe that when people reflect back over their school days, there will be their very own Virginia De View. Perhaps you can thank her before its too late.28. What did the students think of Mrs Virginias project in her class?A Harmful B Crazy C. Beneficial D. Flexible29. What is Virginia Deview s project?A.

To give an oral report on selecting a career.C. To show challenges he me as a reporter.D. To look for his previous classmates.DHaving your nose in a book might seem a little antisocial at times but reading could actually make you a kinder, more considerate person, a study has found. Readers were more likely to act in a socially acceptable manner, while those who preferred watching television came across as less friendly and less understanding ofothers views, researchers said.123 participants in the study were quizzed on their preferences for books, TV and plays at Kingston University, London. They were then tested on how much they considered peoples feelings and whether they acted to help others. Researchers told the British Psychological Society conference in Brighton yesterday that fiction fans showed more positive social behavior.Readers of drama and romance novels were also empathic, while lovers of experimental books showed the ability to see things from different directions. Comedy fans scored the highest for relating to others. The study suggested reading allows people to see different points of view, enabling them to understand others better.The researchers added, “Exposure to fiction relates to a range of empathetic abilities. Engaging with fictional prose and comedy in particular could be key to improving peoples empathetic abilities.”However, the authors warned the study did not prove cause and effect. So it could be that reading causes positive behavior, or it could be that thoughtful, wellmannered people are more likely to prefer reading. So it is a good idea to pick up a book to begin your travel with the author. Each author will show how they would react to certain situations or confrontations through their characters. Everyone can view the same situation differently, and from 1001 different angles. The more you read, the much better you can understand other peoples opinions.32. What do we know about reading according to Paragraph 1?A. It contributes more to ones antisocial role.B. It is of rare benefit to readers.C. It is related to ones social position.D. It can add to ones social adaptability.33. Researchers tested 123 participants in order to find .A. the way to improve reading skillsB. the influence of their preferencesC. the places to get new booksD. the time of reading books34. What does the underlined word empathic in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Understanding.B. Mad.C. Sorrowful.D. Delighted.35. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To react to certain situations.B. To understand peoples opinions.C. To persuade people to read.D. To show how to begin travels.第二节（共5小题；每题2分,满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Food is a very important and necessary part of our lives.We eat food because we need it to live. It gives us the nutrients that we need for our bodies to grow. 36 If we are happy, we eat; if we are sad, we eat; boredom, depression, and loneliness are other reasons that we eat. 37 When we have friends or family over, we usually have some form of food to offer them, whether it is a light snack or a full meal.38 Many of us like certain foods because we have been raised eating those foods. In many cases, whatever our parents eat or like to eat is what we eventually enjoy eating. The region where we live as well as economics determines much of our food selection. If we lived in China, we would eat a lot of rice because it is what is grown there. 39Food is also a part of our many celebrations. However, the way that food is used in celebrations varies from home to home, and country to country. 40 To understand why different foods are used in different celebrations, we need to understand a little about culture and how it could affect the foods we use.A.
