    Ways to Burn More Calories

    　　Run through water

    　　Running in water is one of the toughest activities you can perform because the wet stuff is about 12 to 15 times as resistant(具有阻力的)as air．Try your hardest to run and you can burn about 17 calories per minute．

    　　Start fast

    　　Don't be fooled-slow and steady will not win the race．A recent study found that after a short warm-up，cyclists who rode hard during the first half of their workouts and then slowed for the second half burned about 10 percent more calories than those who started slow and finished fast．

    　　Take to the sand

    　　Here is some easy-to-remember advice on burning calories：the softer the surface，the more you burn．By walking or running on the beach，you can use up 20 to 50 percent more calories than you do going at the same pace on a hard trail．

    　　Shut up and dance

    　　Here is the perfect excuse to sign up for that hip-hop dance class you have been eager to try．Surprising your body with new activities-dance，a new sport，you name it-forces it to work harder because it's doing unfamiliar movements and using muscle groups in different ways．

    　　Use your arms

    　　Getting both your upper and lower body involved can provide a big calorie-burning advantage．So if you are short of time or want to get everything you can out of your usual 45-minute workout，try total-body activities．You can evenng your arms as hard as you can while you walk．

    　　As we all know that every day we go to school and listen to the teacher, and the

    　　teacher will ask us some questions．Sometimes, the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class．When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying．You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends-you are in a slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say．You must speak so that they can hear you-loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself．

    　　Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you．The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation．You must take special care that you can be heard．

    阅读短文，从题中所给的(A，B，C，D)中选出最佳选项。

    　　One would have to be a fool to overlook the importance of using positive thinking for you rather than allowing negative thinking to work against you．In recent years, research in psychopharmacology(精神药理学)has proved how many people have known over the centuries：a positive attitude is good for you, good for your health, good for your wealth, good for everything．Researchers found that a positive attitude produces a specific chemical reaction which makes people feel better, while negative thinking results in a decline of hormone(荷尔蒙)and shuts down the immune(免疫的)system．This leads to illness and depression．Positive thoughts will make you feel better．Even if you must begin by literally forcing yourself to be positive(faking it, so to speak), it will become contagious(会传播的)and the positive thoughts will generate nice little chemicals and good feelings which will reinforce the positive thoughts．

    　　For example, if you force yourself to smile or laugh, even when you don't feel like smiling or laughing, if you keep at it for a few minutes, you will soon feel like it．Feelings can generate thoughts, but thoughts can also generate feelings．Control your thoughts and you can control your feelings．Positive thinking is important in all aspects of our lives．There is probably no single factor more important in determining your success in achieving your career objectives than your own attitude．

    　　It's often been said that in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king．And in the office of militant(好战)negativism, the positive workers shine like gold．You cannot control external events, but you can learn to control your reaction to those events and thereby have a positive attitude and be happy．This vital key to success is totally within your control．Use it．

    (1)

    We can infer from the passage that ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    positive thinking can cure you of your diseases

    B．

    positive thinking can easily be generated by anyone

    C．

    a decline of hormone may cause you to be depressed

    D．

    a specific chemical reaction is the cause of negative thinking

    (2)

    According to the passage, which of the following is true?

    [　　]

    A．

    Feeling and thoughts can generate each other．

    B．

    It's easier to control thoughts than to control feelings．

    C．

    Your success depends wholly on your attitude．

    D．

    Keeping smiling will surely make you successful．

    (3)

    Just like a one-eyed man in the land of the blind, you should ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    take positive attitude in the office of militant negativism

    B．

    be king in your office

    C．

    pay no attention to what is going on around you

    D．

    control your feeling to what is happening to you

    Why Should People Think

    第三部分阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）
    阅读下列短文，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。                 
    Scientists in Canada say big ocean fish have almost disappeared from the world since the start of industrial fishing in the 1950s. The scientists found the populations of large fish like tuna(金枪鱼), swordfish and cod（鳕鱼） have dropped by ninety percent in the past fifty years.
    The study took ten years. The researchers gathered records from fishing businesses and governments around the world. The magazine Nature published the findings.
    The scientists say the common method called long line fishing is especially damaging to populations of large fish. This method involves many fishing lines connected to one boat. These wires can be nearly one hundred kilometers long. They hold thousands of sharp metal hooks to catch fish.
    Long line fishing is especially common in the Japanese fishing industry. Records showed that Japanese boats used to catch about ten fish for every one hundred hooks. But long line fishing boats now might only catch one fish per hundred hooks.
    The scientists say industrial fishing can destroy groups of fish much faster than in the past. The study suggests that whole populations can disappear almost completely from new fishing areas within ten to fifteen years.
    Ransom Myers and Boris Worm of Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia led the study with the University of Kiel in Germany. Worm says the destruction could lead to a complete reorganization of ocean life systems. Meyers says the decreased numbers of large fish are not the only worry. He says even populations that are able to reproduce do not get the chance to live long enough to grow as big as their ancestors. He says not only are there fewer big fish, but also they are smaller than those of the past.
    American government scientists say even with the best efforts to protect fish populations, decreases are to be expected.
    56. Which one can be the best title for the passage?
    A. Discoveries Canadian scientists have made      B. Japan fishing industry
    C. Losses of big fish                          D. Modern fishing methods
    57. When did the researchers begin to survey the decrease of large fish?
    A. in the 1960s      B. in the 1970s       C. in the 1980s              D. in the 1990s
    58. The underlined word “sharp” in Para 3 means _________.
    A. having a fine edge or point that can cut or make a hole in something
    B. sudden or rapid change in something
    C. quick to react or to understand things
    D. loud, sudden and often high in tone
    59. Which of the following statements can show the fact that the populations of large fish have dropped?
    A. Today’s “large” fish are smaller than those of the past.
    B. Long line fishing boats now might catch ten fish for every one hundred hooks.
    C. Fish able to reproduce don’t have the chance to live longer.
    D. Long line fishing boats now might catch one fish for every one hundred hooks
    60. Where is the passage probably taken from?
    A. A story book      B. A business magazine         C. An environmental report      D. An economic survey
