If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life，new research may come as a shock．According to a recent scientific study，people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all．
Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1，000 joggers（慢跑者） and non-joggers for 12 years．The death rates（率） from the sample group suggest that people who jog at a moderate(适合的) pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die．
The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour．The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non-joggers．The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries(动脉)．Over time，this can cause serious injuries．
Peter Schnohr，a researcher in Copenhagen，said，―If your goal is to decrease（减少） risk of death and improve life expectancy，jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy（策略）．Anything more is not just unnecessary，and it may be harmful．‖
The implications（含义） of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as tai chi，yoga and brisk walking

may be better for us than ―iron man‖ events，triathlons（三项全能） and long-distance running and
cycling．According to Jacob Louis Marott，another researcher in the study，―You don’t actually have to do that much to have a good impact（影响） on your health．And perhaps you shouldn’t actually do too much‖． 32．The underlined word ―strenuous‖ in Paragraph l is closest in meaning to―___________‖． A．hard B．regular C．practical D．flexible（灵活的） 33．The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to ___________． A．suggest giving up jogging B．show risks of doing sports
C．provide supportive evidence（证据） D．introduce the research process（过程） 34．According to the scientists，why is too much exercise harmful？
A．It may injure the heart and arteries． B．It can make the body tired out． C．It will bring much pressure． D．It consumes too much energy． 35．What can be inferred from the text？
A．No exercise at all is the best choice． B．More exercise means a healthier life． C．Marathons runners are least likely to die． D．Proper exercise contributes to good health． 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

Weight loss is a hard topic. Lots of people aren’t satisfied with their present weight，but most people aren’t sure how to change it. You may want to look like the models or actors in magazines or on TV，but those goals might not be healthy or realistic for you. 36 So what should you do about your weight control?
37 The best way to find out if you are at a healthy weight or if you need to lose or gain weight is to talk to a doctor or a dietitian(营养学家). 38 If it turns out that you can benefit from weight loss , then you can follow a few of the simple suggestions listed below to get started.
39 People who lose weight quickly by crash dieting or other extreme measures usually gain back all of the pounds they lost，because they haven’t permanently(永久地) changed their habits. Therefore，the best weight management ways are those that you can maintain(保持)for a lifetime.
Small changes are a lot easier to stick with(坚持) than large ones. Try reducing the size of what you eat. 40 Once you have that done，start gradually introducing healthier foods and exercise into your life.

Try to pay attention as you eat and stop when you’re full. D. Besides，no magical diet will make you look like someone else. E. Changing from whole to nonfat or low-fat milk is also a good idea.
