2 . When I was in my third year at university, my roommates were American footballers, so I decided to join them. I remember seeing them in front of me wearing pads (防护垫), and thinking they were going to kill me. I got tackled (阻截) so hard that I was frightened. But then I realized it was just physical contact. I’ve been addicted since.

The fundamental aim of the game is to score by running with the ball into, or receiving the ball inside the opposition’s end zone. Every player on the field has a set responsibility. I’m a running back. My job is using my speed, strength and skill to carry the ball and keep running until either I score or I get put down. And it does hurt.

I’ve broken two fingers and hurt my shoulder, but the worst was when I trapped the ligaments (韧带) in the back of my leg. I had to take a year out. But none of that put me off—all I could think was how I was going to come back stronger. Besides training with the team, I now have my gym routine to get fitter, faster and stronger.

Although people think American football is aggressive, there’s much more to it. Every team has its own playbook, outlining everyone’s role in different scenes. My playbook was 73 pages long. Words can’t describe how it feels when it all comes together on the field.

American football has changed my life for the better. I’ve learned time management, how to take responsibility for my action, and how much I treasure being part of a team. Within the four lines of the field, it is physical. Emotions run high. If you’re on the opposing team, you are my enemy. But once the game is done, we’re like a big family.

5 . Parents must focus on a healthy balanced lifestyle for their children instead of focusing on weight or dieting in order to prevent obesity(肥胖)and eating disorder among teenagers，say new guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics.The guidelines were developed in response to growing concern about teenagers' use of unhealthy methods to lose weight.

Quick weight loss methods can cause medical consequences such as unstable heart rate.Also，teenagers who diet in the ninth grade are three times more likely than their peers(同龄人)to be overweight in the 12th grade，the researchers said.“Scientific evidence increasingly shows that for teenagers，dieting is bad news，”said the lead author Neville Golden，professor at the Stanford University.

Parents should not encourage dieting，and should avoid “weight talk”such as commenting on their own weight or their children's weight.Instead parents should help their children develop a healthy body image by encouraging them to eat a balanced diet and exercise for fitness，not weight loss，the researchers stated.Further，they should also never tease teenagers about their weight.Negative comments about weight can also be detrimental to a teenager's health.

“Mothers who talk about their own bodies and weights can encourage their kids to have body dissatisfaction，which we see in half of teenage girls and a quarter of boys，”Golden noted.Such dissatisfaction is associated with lower levels of physical activities and with use of laxatives(泻药) to control weight.

Families should eat regular meals together，the researchers suggested，adding that eating family meals is likely to prevent weight problems，said the paper published online in the journal Pediatrics.Eating too fast，eating when not hungry，always eating dessert，eating out often are not advisable when you watch your weight.

1. What will possibly happen to teenagers in the 12th grade if they go on a diet in the ninth grade?

A．Their studies will suffer a lot.

B．They'll probably have unstable heart rate.

C．They're more likely to have obesity problems.

D．They'll probably have eating disorder problems.

2. What should parents do to prevent teenage obesity?

A．Urge teenagers to go on a strict diet.

B．Comment on their own weight when eating.

C．Express their dissatisfaction with their bodies.

D．Encourage teenagers to eat healthily and exercise properly.

3. What does the underlined word“detrimental”in the third paragraph probably mean?

A．Strange.	B．Harmful.
C．Necessary.	D．Deadly.

4. Which is considered helpful to prevent obesity?

A．Eating regular family meals.

B．Eating only when hungry.

C．Dining out often.

D．Eating too slow.

6 . A new study, a project of the researchers from the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania, finds the fitness tracker probably does not help with weight loss.

The devices are designed to record your physical activity. They are usually worn around the wrist, where they measure a person’s heart rate. The research team looked at two groups of individuals. The first wore a fitness tracker and took part in health counseling (咨询) with experts to consider the best weight-loss plan. The researchers compared this group with people who only got health counseling.

The study found that those only speaking with the health experts lost nearly 6 kilograms, but those using a fitness tracker lost only 3.5 kilograms. John Jakicic, the lead researcher, questioned the use of electronic devices for weight control in place of “effective behavioral counseling for physical activity and diet. ”

The study involved 470 subjects aged between 18 and 35. Some of them were overweight, while others were considered obese (肥胖的). Over three fourths of the subjects were women. All the subjects were told to increase physical activity and start on a low-calorie diet. They had their weight measured once every six months. After six months, researchers divided the group into two parts: one continued with monthly counseling, while members of the other group were given a fitness tracker. Eighteen months later, both groups “showed significant improvements in fitness, physical activity, and diet,” with no major difference between groups. However, when it came to losing weight, the people who only spoke with experts lost nearly twice as much weight.

Jakicic said, “the study’s findings are important because effective long-term treatments are needed to address America’s obesity. ” More information is needed, he added, to learn how to best use these devices to change “physical activity and diet behaviors” in adults who want to lose weight.

1. All the subjects in the study were asked to ________.

A．start on a high-calorie diet	B．wear a fitness tracker
C．increase physical activities	D．record their heart rates

2. Why does Jakicic think the findings are important?

A．Wearing fitness trackers hardly helps people lose weight.

B．Physical activity and diet have no effect on weight loss.

C．Handling obesity requires effective long-term treatments.

D．There are great differences in fitness between both groups.

3. What can we infer about the study mentioned in the text?

A．The study went on for about two years.

B．More than 120 men took part in the study.

C．Health counseling helps lose almost 6 kilograms.

D．Wearing a fitness tracker is useful for keeping slim.

4. The purpose of the text is to ________.

A．describe how the researchers were conducting the study

B．indicate regular counseling for weight control is necessary

C．convince readers to wear fitness trackers for weight control

D．warn women are more likely to suffer from weight problems

7 . The first ancient Olympic Games for which we still have written records were held in 776 BC. Coroebus won the only event at the Olympics. This made him the first Olympic champion in history. Then the Olympic Games developed and continued to be held every four years. In 393 AD, the Roman Emperor Theodosius I, a Christian, put a stop to the Games.

In 1892,a young Frenchman named Pierre de Coubertin suggested starting the Olympic Games again but failed. Two years later,Coubertin organized a meeting with 79 people representing nine countries. At this meeting he got what he wanted. All the delegates at the meeting voted for the Olympic Games. They also decided to have Coubertin found an international committee (委员会) to organize the Games. This committee became the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Demetrious Vikelas from Greece was chosen to be its first president. Athens was chosen for the revival (复兴) of the Olympic Games and the planning began.

The first modern Olympic Games opened in the first week of April, 1896. Since the Greek government didn’t have enough money to build a stadium, a wealthy Greek man, Georgios Averoff, donated over $100,000 to repair the Panathenaic Stadium built in 330 BC.Since the Games were not well publicized (宣传) internationally, athletes were not nationally chosen but rather came by themselves. Some athletes were tourists who happened to be in the area during the Games.

1. What can we know about the first Olympic Games？

A．There was only one event in it.

B．It opened in the first week of April 1896.

C．Coroebus was the first man to take part in it.

8 . 任务型阅读

We all need physical exercise. Exercise uses up the food we eat and keeps the body energetic. It works your muscles and makes your heart work hard so as to send blood to your muscles. So exercise makes your heart and muscles strong. Exercise also makes you feel refreshed. If you take regular exercise, you will stay happy and healthy.

Some Western countries, such as the United States, have problems with exercise. In the US, many people lack exercise because it is hard for them. People have to work from dawn till dusk, so they don’t have time to take exercise. They work in office buildings sitting in chairs all day long in front of computers. They cannot get much exercise sitting at desk passively.

Some Westerners can get exercise by walking from their homes to workplaces. However, the majority of people cannot do this. It is too far from their homes to their offices. They have no choice but to drive to work. In fact, some have to drive one or two hours to their offices. This is unfavorable in two ways. First, these people don’t have a chance to exercise because they are sitting in their cars for two to four hours each day. Second, driving is challenging especially in rush hours and calls for too much attention. It makes a person very tired. So when these people arrive home at night, they don’t have the desire to take exercise after work.

Today, many people in the West are overweight, which causes health problems for them. Doctors say exercise can help people both lose weight and improve their health. So many people are trying to get more exercise. But it takes time to change, and when people don’t see a difference right away, they will be discouraged and stop exercising.

Title	Westerners     1     Exercise
