exercise more. For women who are middle-aged "or older, experts say an hour of daily exercise
is necessary just to keep weight.
But for most women, fitting in an hour of exercise in an already busy day is difficult, and it is
even impossible. Especially for many women, most hours are already filled with a full-time job
and raising a family. At the end of the tiring day, at least in the U.S., there is little incentive to
prepare a dinner when fast food is so available--and so much more fattening.
Nearly twenty million women in the U.S. have the problem of obesity. The United Nations
report notes that America is one of the countries that have the most obese people in the world
and Mississippi has more overweight women than any other state in the U.S.. The U. S. Center
for Disease Control says the number of overweight women increased by 60% between 2004
and 2009 in America. The World Health Organization says more than one billion women in other
nations are in the same shape.
While there is plenty of advice on how to lose kilograms, a new study is carried out on
middie-aged and older women who keep normal body weight, or BMI (Body Mass Index). "We
found that physical activity was effective in controlling weight only among women who started to gain
weight from a normal BMI ,"I-Min Lee and her colleagues found more exercise did not help.
"Once a woman is obese, there was no relation between physical activity and weight change
among these women, "Lee said. The researchers say the only way that obese women can lose weight
is to simply cut calories.
B. Paying all attention to their jobs.
C. Having no interest in exercising.
D. Being too busy to find spare time.
B. the problem of woman obesity worldwide is serious
C. many organizations are built to care about fat women
D. America has more overweight women than any other country
B. Keep busy all day long and do a lot of exercise.
C. Find a high energy costing and tiring job.
D. Sleep less, eating less and exercising more.
B. make people put on weight
C. make people keep weight
D. keep people busy

when it comes to money. The findings , the first in a series of reports from NatWest that has started a
five-year research project into teenagers and money, are particularly worrying as this generation of young
people is likely to be burdened with greater debts than any before.
University tuition fees (学费) are currently capped at £3 , 000 annually, but this will be reviewed
next year and the govemment is under enormous pressure to raise the ceiling.
In the research, the teenagers were presented with the terms of four different loans but 76 percent
failed to identify the cheapest. The young people also predicted that they would be eaming on average
£31,000 by the age of 25, although the average salary for those aged 22 to 29 is just £17 ,815. The
teenagers expected to be in debt when they finished university or training, although half said that they
assumed the debts would be less than £10 , 000. Average debts for graduates are £12 ,363.
Stephen Moir, head of community investment at the Royal Bank of Scotland Group which owns
NatWest, said, "The more exposed young people are to financial issues, and the younger they become
aware of them, the more likely they are to become responsible, forward-planning adults who manage
their finances confidently and effectively. "
Ministers are deeply concemed about the financial pressures on teenagers and young people because
of student loans and rising housing costs. They have just introduced new lessons in how to manage
debts. Nikki Fairweather, aged 15 , from St Helens, said that she had benefited from lessons on
personal finance, but admitted that she still had a lot to learn about money.
B. University tuition fees in England have been rising.
C. Teenagers tend to overestimate their future eamings.
D. The students" payback ability has become a major issue.

C. to increase the upper limit of the tuition
D. to lift the school building roofs

D. benefit a lot from lessons on personal finance

classes so early in the morning. It may not be that the students who nod off at their desks are lazy. And
it may not be that their parents have failed to enforce (确保) bedtime. Instead, it may be that biologically
these sleepyhead students aren"t used to the early hour.
" Maybe these kids are being asked to rise at the wrong time for their bodies, " says Mary Carskadon,
a professor looking at problems of adolescent (青春期的) sleep at Brown"s School of Medicine.
Carskadon is trying to understand more about the effects of early school time in adolescents. And , at
a more basic level, she and her team are trying to learn more about how the biological changes of
adolescence affect sleep needs and patterns.
Carskadon says her work suggests that adolescents may need more sleep than they did at childhood ,
no less,as commonly thought.
Sleep patterns change during adolescence, as any parent of an adolescent can prove. Most
adolescents prefer to stay up later at night and sleep later in the morning. But it"s not just a matter of choice-their bodies are going through a change of sleep patterns.
All of this makes the transfer from middle school to high school-which may start one hour earlier in
the morning-all the more difficult , Carskadon says. With their increased need for sleep and their
biological clocks set on the "sleep late , rise late" pattern, adolescents are up against difficulties when it
comes to trying to be up by 5 0r 6 a. m. for a 7 : 30 a. m. first bell. A short sleep on a desktop may be
their bodies" way of saying,"l need a timeout. "

D. students are so lazy that they don"t like to go to school early

D. refuse to work

reward was certainly incomparable to the little effort that he had to put it. It began when he was selected
to help the teachers in the computer laboratories.
The peak of his school career came not when he topped the school but when he was selected for the
nationwide competition.Unlike everyone else, Nigel wanted to join the contest because he liked playing
with the Lego sets and making something out of them. Nigel spent the next two months rebuilding the
robot. It was during the time that Nigel found out about the prizes for the competition as well as another
competitor, Alicia, from a neighboring school. His early intentions were forgotten. Getting the
thousand-dollar prize was more important than anything else. Nigel decided to befriend Alicia.Unaware
of his intentions, she told him all about the robot that she had been building for the competition. He even
helped her to put the finishing touches to her robot. He was glad with the way things had progressed. His
robot looked even better than Alicia"s and it was able to bounce a ball with its arm , something Alicia
had failed to do.
On the day of the competition, he saw Alicia. Everything dawned on her the minute she saw him
among the competition. She stared at him, puzzled at rirst, then angry and finally a look of helplessness
came over her.
The flashbulbs of the camera exploded in Nigel"s face. The robot had performed actions so unique
and different that the specialists" judgments were the same. Nigel was so personal with himself that he
did not even notice the girl standing a few feet away from him. Without her,he would never have won the
competition.
B. He was honored with a scholarship.
C. He helped his teachers construct a robot.
D. He helped in the computer laboratories.
B. being great honor to his school
C. construct a robot with the Lego sets
D. win the thousand-dollar prize

D. He didn"t want her to suspect him.
B. He is strongly critical.
C. He is in favor of them.
D. His attitude is not clear.
direct experience,by testing and piroving an idea,or by reasoning.
We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someoneelse. Most of the learning that
takes place in the classroom and thekind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers
ormagazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive leaning,it"snot surprising that we
depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.
Unfortunately,passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we
are told even when it is little more than hear say and rumor(谣言).
Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one personwrites down a message but
doesn" t show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it,word for word, to another person.That
person,inturn,whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the peopleplaying the game. The
last person writes down the message word forword as he or she hears it. Then the two written
statements arec ompared. Typically, the original message has changed.
That" s what happens in daily life. The simple fact that peoplerepeat a story in their own words
changes the story.Then,too,most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own
creativetouch to a story,trying to improve on it,stamping(打上标记)it with their own personal
style. Yet those who hear it think they know.
This process is also found among scholars and authors:Astatement of opinion by one writer
may be re-stated as fact by another,who may in turn be quoted by yet another;and this process
may continue,unless it occurs to someone to question the facts onwhich the origihal writer based
his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.
B. solving a math problem
C.visiting an exhibition
D.doing scientific reasoning
B. knowledge
C. communication
D. passive learning
B. a message should be delivered in different ways
C. people may have problems with their sense of hearing
D. people tend not to believe in what they know as rumor
B. Passive learning may not be reliable.
C. Active learning occurs more frequently.
D. Passive learning is not found among scholars.
