第二部分．阅读理解（共25小题。第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题1分；满分45分）

第一节 阅读下面五篇短文，从每题后所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案。

   Most of us lead unhealthy lives; we spend far too much sitting down. If in addition we are careless about our diets, our bodies soon become loose and fatty and our systems slow moving. There are some aspects(方面) of our unhealthy lives that we cannot avoid. I am thinking of such features of modern city life as pollution, noise, rushed meals and stress. But keeping fit is a way to reduce the effects of these evils. The usual suggestion to a person who is looking for a way to keep fit is to take up some sport or other. While it is true that every weekend you will find people playing football and hockey in the local park, they are outnumbered a hundred to one by the people who are simply watching them.

　　For those who do not particularly enjoy competitive sports — and it is especially difficult to do so if you are not good at them — there are such separate activities as cycling, walking, jogging and swimming. What often happens though is that you do them in such a leisurely way, so slowly, that it is doubtful if you are doing yourself much good, except for the fact that you have at least managed to get up out of your armchair.

　　Even after you have found a way for keeping in shape, through sport or gymnastics, you are still only half way to good health, because, according to the experts, you must also master the art of complete mental and physical relaxation(放松). It has to do with deep breathing, emptying your mind of all thoughts, meditation, and so on. Yoga, as practiced in the West, is the most widely known and popular of the systems for achieving the necessary state of relaxation. It seems ironical (讽刺性的), though, that as our lives have improved in a material sense we have found it increasingly necessary to go back to forms of activity — physical effort on the one hand and relaxation on the other — which were the natural way of life of our forefathers.

41. Pollution, noise and stress are examples of _____.

A. the causes of unfitness                                                       B. bad features of modern living

C. the things we can completely do away with                D. unavoidable things in town

42. We don’t get much out of separate sports because we _____.

A. don’t do them very often                                                   B. don’t do them actively enough

C. find it hard to get out of our armchairs                          D. don’t find them interesting

43. To be healthy we must _____.

A. keep fit and active                                                              B. keep fit and learn to relax

C. be active and practise Yoga                                                        D. have a sound mind

44. Our forefathers were healthy because______.

A. their way of life closely connected with both exercise and relaxation

B. they were careful to get plenty of fresh air

C. they spent most of the time out of doors

         D. their environment was not polluted

The night was dark, though sometimes the moving clouds allowed a star or two to be seen in the sky. The poor men held on to any bit of     1     they could find. They called to the Marie for     2   , but she was far    3    the reach of the human voice. At one o'clock in the    4 the water was getting    5   , and even worse a strong    6    had begun to blow. Suddenly 7    were seen in the distance: another ship! The shouts of the    8    were heard on board, and willing hearts pulled them out of the water. The    9    of the ship that had so    10 arrived on the scene in time to save their lives was Ellen. What had brought her to the exact spot through the darkness and the pathless sea? Her captain had known    11    of the wreck (沉船) and had, indeed, attempted to sail away from it. But let him speak for himself.

    “I was forced by the wind,” he said long after wards, to    12    my course (航道). Just as I did it, a small    13    flew across the ship once or twice and then    14    at my face. I took    15    of this until exactly the same thing happened a    16    time, which caused me to think it rather    17   , while I was thus    18    it, the same bird, for the third time, made its appearance and flew about in the same way as before. I was then    19    to change my course back to the original one. It had not gone far    20    I heard strange noises; and when I tried to make sure where they came from, I found I was in the middle of people who had been shipwrecked. I immediately did my best to save them.
