    15．Recently a study，led by Pedro Hallal of the Federal University，suggests that nearly a third of adults，31%，are not getting enough exercise．That rates of exercise have declined is hardly a new discovery．Since the beginning of the industrial revolution，technology and economic growth have helped to create a world in which taking exercise is more and more an option rather than a necessity．But only recently have enough good data been collected from enough places to carry out the sort of analysis Dr Hallal and his colleagues have engaged in．
    There are common themes in different places．Unsurprisingly，people in rich countries are less active than those in poor ones，and old people are less active than young ones．Less obviously，women tend to exercise less than men-34% are inactive，compared with 28% of men．But there are exceptions．The women of Croatia，Finland，Iraq and Luxembourg，for example，move more than their male countrymen．
    Malta wins the race for most slothful country，with 72% of adults getting too little exercise，and Swaziland and Saudi Arabia are in close behind，with 69%．In Bangladesh，just 5% of adults fail to exercise enough．Surprisingly，six Americans in ten are active enough according to Dr Hallal's study，compared with fewer than four in ten British．
     These high rates of inactivity are worrying．Human beings seem to have evolved（进化） to benefit from exercise while deliberately avoiding it whenever they can．In a state of nature it would be impossible to live a life that did not provide enough of it．But that is no longer the case．Actually lack of enough activity these days has nearly the same effect on life span（寿命） as smoking．
    29．We may learn from Paragraph 1 thatD．
    A．the decline of exercise rates is newly discovered
    B．the study suggests 31% of female adults get too little exercise
    C．the good enough data has been collected from only one country
    D．the industrial revolution has changed the way people live to some degree
    30．According to the study，women of LuxembourgD．
    A．have little time to exercise
    B．hate to get regular exercise
    C．take more exercise to lose weight
    D．exercise more than men in their country
    31．The underlined word"slothful"in Paragraph 3 most probably meansC．
    A．powerful         B．rich         C．lazy         D．unpopular
    32．What can be the best title for the text？A
    A．Worldwide Lack of Enough Exercise           
    B．New Health Discovery
    C．Evolvement of Human Beings              
    D．Benefits of Taking Exercise．

    2．A chocolate printer that allows sweet lovers to create 3D desserts by themselves is to go on sale at a cost of 2，500 pounds．
    The machine squirts （喷射） out chocolate and，via computer instructions，allows the user to build any shape they like out of the food．But makers Choc Edge have missed the Easter rush．Even so，they hope the printer will be snapped up by retailers （零售商） immediately they come to the market．Britain's biggest chocolatiers Thornton's have already said they are interested．Because of the high cost，however，few individuals are likely to buy one．But the device could one day allow people to design their own 3D objects after submitting their designs on a website．Dr Hao，founder of Choc Edge came up with a prototype （原型） last year and has only just perfected it so that it can now go on sale．"We've improved and simplified the machine，so now it is really easy to use，"he told the BBC．"You just need to melt some chocolate，fill a syringe （注射器） that is stored in the printer，and get creative printing of your chocolate．"
    3D printing is a technology where a three dimensional object is created by building up successive layers of material．The technology is already used in industry to produce plastic and metal products，but this is the first time the principles have been applied to chocolate．The research has presented many challenges．Chocolate is not an easy material to work with because it requires accurate heating and cooling cycles．Dr Hao said，"What makes this technology special is that users will be able to design and make their own products．From reproducing the shape of a child's favourite toy to a friend's face，the possibilities are endless．It could be developed to help consumers design many products from different materials，but we've started with chocolate as it is easily available，low cost and harmless．""There is also no wastage as any spoilage （损坏物） can be eaten．"Dr Hao added，"Eventually we may see many mass-produced products replaced by unique designs created by the customer．"
    EPSRC chief executive Professor Dave Delpy said，"This is a good example of how creative research can be applied to create new manufacturing and retail ideas．By combining developments in engineering with the commercial potential of the digital economy We can see the new market prospect （前景）-creating new jobs and，in this case，the chocolate printer is called sweet business opportunities．"
    67．Which is the advantage of the chocolate printer？C
    A．It is easily available，low cost and harmless．
    B．It mainly produces children's favourite toys．
    C．The user can build the shape they like via computer instructions．
    D．The designs made by it are the same as many mass-produced products．
    68．What can we conclude from the passage？B
    A．The printer sold well during last Easter．
    B．The technology of 3D printing promises a good future．
    C．The printer was perfected and went on sale many years ago．
    D．It's the first time that the technology has been used in industry．
    69．Dave Delpy's attitude towards the chocolate printer isB．
    A．doubtful              B．approval         C．negative         D．critical
    70．We can conclude that this passage is aC．
    A．science fiction       B．book review      C．news report         D．travel guide．

    14．It is generally believed that we are getting cleaned when we step under a shower．We are，but we're also giving a home to lots of tiny little creatures we didn't even know about．A showerhead carries thousands of bacteria called Mycobacterium．These can cause problems like coughs and tiredness，and a general feeling of poorliness （身体不舒服）．When you turn on the water，the bacteria go from the showerhead onto and into your body．
    This is a finding of Norman R．Pace and his team at the University of Colorado，in the US．The scientists investigated bacteria in all kinds of human environment，including showers．Pace's team looked at 45showerheads in nine American cities．They discovered that 30percent of them had large amounts of flying Mycobacterium．
    But Pace said that they  pose few threats to the health．Only those with a weak immune system might need to worry．He told the New York Times that the bacteria are not as unpleasant as might be thought．He said that having a shower is no more dangerous than anything else we do in the morning．
    But for those who feel sick about the idea of all those microorganisms （微生物），he had some advice．Let the water run for 30seconds before getting into the shower．Why？The number of bacteria is smaller than that when the water is just turned on．If that seems like a waste of water，he added that you could also change your showerhead every few months．
    However，Pace had good news too．He has also been testing the air in US subways．Apart from iron particles （粒子），which are ground off the track by the wheels of trains，subway air is fresh．The reason is that a train's movement pumps fresh outdoor air into the tunnels．
    Pace explained that he wanted to understand the natural microbial environments of public places．This kind of knowledge might help discover the microbes to be used in a bioterrorist （生物恐怖分子） attack．

    56．From the finding of Norman R．Pace，after taking a shower，we might cough or feel tired
    becauseB．
    A．it's easy to get a cold when taking a bath
    B．the showerhead carries many bacteria causing illness
    C．we don't get cleaned while showering
    D．we don't get a weak immune system
    57．According to the passage，which of the following is TRUE？D．
    A．Hot water could kill most of bacteria in showerheads．
    B．Of 45showerheads surveyed in nine cities，30carried large amounts of Mycobacterium．
    C．Changing showerheads is the only way to avoid microorganisms．
    D．Shower water contains much less bacteria after being left to run for 30seconds．
    58．We can learn from the third paragraph thatC．
    A．having a shower in the morning is more dangerous than at other time
    B．the bacteria always threat people's health
    C．there is no reason to fear microorganisms for people with strong immune system
    D．it is better to do some exercise in the morning than have a shower
    59．The underlined word"pose"in the third paragraph probably means"A"．
    A．cause                B．avoid       C．describe           D．promise
    60．What contributes to fresh air in US subways？A．
    A．The train's movement．B．Iron particles．
    C．Train wheels．D．Air conditioners on the trains．
