Many theories have been put forward to explain the popularity of jogging. The truth is that jogging is a cheap, quick and efficient way to achieve physical fitness.The most useful sort of exercise is exercise that develops the heart, lungs, and circulatory （循环）systems. If these systems are fit, the body is ready for almost any sport and for almost any sudden demand made by work or emergencies. Running trains your heart and lungs to deliver oxygen more efficiently to all parts of your body. It is worth noticing that this sort of exercise is the only kind that can reduce heart disease, the number one cause of death in America.The only equipment that is needed is a good pair of shoes. Physicians advise beginning joggers not to run in tennis or gym shoes. A good running shoe will give the knee and ankle（脚踝）more stability（稳定性）. Wearing good shoes will prevent the foot, ankle and knee injures and will also enable the wearer to run on different surfaces.No other special equipment is needed; you can jog in any clothing you want, even in your street clothes. Many joggers wear expensive, flashy warmup suits, but many people just wear a simple T-shirt or jog in last years clothes. In cold weather, several layers（层) of clothing are better than one heavy sweater or coat. If joggers are wearing several layers of clothing, they can add or take off layers as conditions change.It takes surprisingly little time to develop the ability to run. The American Jogging Association has a twelveweek program designed to move from a fifteenminute walk (which almost anyone in reasonable health can manage) to a thirty-minute run. A measure of common sense, a physical examination, and a planned schedule are all it takes.63. The main purpose of this passage is to .A. discuss jogging as a physical fitness programB. describe the type of clothing needed for joggingC. provide scientific evidence of the benefits of joggingD. promote some shoes for jogging64. Which of the following is the only special equipment that joggers need?A. Good shoes.B. Street clothes. C. Expensive suits.D. Warm-up trousers.65. The most useful kind of exercise is exercise that .A. trains the body for weight liftingB. enables a person to run ahead with great powerC. is both beneficial and inexpensiveD. develops the heart, lungs, and circulatory systems66. We can conclude from this passage that .A. because of jogging, heart disease is no longer an American problemB. jogging can be harmful if the runner is not properly preparedC. warmup suits are better than T-shirts for joggingD. jogging is bad for your heart and lungsDScientists have long understood the key role that oceans play in regulating the Earths climate. Oceans cover 70 percent of the globe and store a thousand times more heat than the atmosphere does. Whats newer is the understanding of how this key component of our climate system responds to global warming.A brake on global warmingfor nowOne of the oceans most important climate functions is absorbing heat and carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the gases that cause global warming. Acting as a heat sponge (海绵), the oceans have absorbed huge amounts of heat and CO2 in the last forty years.Fujita explains that “the oceans are saving us from faster climate changethey are a big flywheel that delays rapid overheating of the earth, putting a brake on the climate system.”“Thats the good news,” he adds. “The bad news is that the oceans only slow the atmospheric warming. Once the oceans come to balance with a greenhouse-gas warmed earth, the extreme heat will remain in the atmosphere and things will get much hotter.” But where and how the oceans release this accumulated (积累) heat is uncertain. And as the ocean stores heat, fragile underwater
