28、American children aren’t the only couch potatoes out there. Nearly one third of children in the world spend three hours a day or more watching TV or playing computers, according to a study of over 70,000 teens in 34 nations.

From Argentina to Zambia, Regina Guthold of the World Health Organization in Geneva and her colleagues found that most children aren’t getting enough exercise. “In terms of physical activity levels, we did not find much of a difference between poor and rich countries,” Guthold told Reuters Health. “Growing up in a poor country does not necessarily mean that kids get more physical activity.”

The study, published in The Journal of Pediatrics, looked at 72,845 schoolchildren aged 13 to 15 from Africa, North and South America, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.

The researchers defined enough physical activity as at least an hour of exercise outside of gym class at least five days a week. Children who spent three or more hours a day watching TV, playing computer games, or chatting with friends — aside from time in school or time spent doing homework — were considered as sedentary. The researchers found only one quarter of the boys and 15 percent of the girls were getting enough exercise by these definitions. A quarter of the boys and nearly 30 percent of the girls sat too much and didn’t get enough exercise.

Children in Myanmar were the least sedentary, with 13 percent of boys and 8 percent of girls classified as sedentary.

Girls were less active than boys in every country except for Zambia. Uruguay had the highest percentage of active boys, at 42 percent, while Zambia had the lowest, at 8 percent. Girls from India were the most active, with 37 percent meeting exercise definitions, while girls from Egypt were the least active, with just 4 percent getting enough exercise.

While the study didn’t look at the reasons behind the lack of physical activity in various nations, Guthold guessed that urbanization (城市化) could be a factor as well as being able to use cars and TVs. She said schools can help children become more active by having physical education classes and educating students about the importance of exercise.

【1】What does the underlined word “sedentary” in paragraph 4 mean?

A．Addicted.

B．Flexible.

C．Inactive.

D．Unhealthy.

【2】What can we know from the study?

A．Boys from Uruguay were the most active.

B．Most girls from India got enough exercise.

C．Children in Europe get more physical activity.

D．Boys are more active than girls in every country.

【3】How does the writer present the findings of the study?

A．By using quotations and taking examples.

B．By listing figures and making comparisons.

C．By asking questions and providing answers.

D．By presenting facts and drawing conclusions.

【4】Which of the following factors probably lead to children’s lack of physical activity?

A．Computers and potatoes.

B．Computers and urbanization.

C．Urbanization and physical education.

D．Physical education and homework.

29、When people think of winter sports, they usually think of ice skating, skiing or snowboarding. Without doubt, these are some of the most popular winter sports—although, thanks to man-made snow we can play most of these sports all year round!

Last weekend, I went snowshoeing with a group of teachers from my school. Although I had walked in very deep snow almost two years ago, I had never tried snowshoeing before. A snowshoe is, actually, a large plastic frame(框架) which you fix to your own shoes. The snowshoe increases the surface area of your feet, therefore making you less likely to sink in the snow.

At first, it felt a little strange—a bit like wearing flippers(脚蹼)when you swim! I felt quite uncomfortable to start with, and it was difficult to climb over the fallen trees with the snowshoes fixed to my feet. However, I love hiking and am used to walking in mountainous areas so I soon got used to it. I loved walking through the forest and seeing all the trees covered in snow! At times, walking uphill in the snow was hard, especially when there were rocks under the snow. That said, once we reached the top it was worth it! The mountain we climbed was called “Le Tanet” and it was 1,292m high. That’s higher than Snowdon, the tallest mountain in Wales! The sky was a bit grey, but the views were fantastic. I managed to get some great photos. After taking lots of photos, we started the descent. In some ways, going down the mountain was harder than going up. It was easy to slip in the snow.

At the bottom, we had a hot drink in a small wood house. It was surely needed after a few hours of walking in the cold! Before we went home, I had a go at sledging(乘雪橇), which I’d never tried before! It was great fun!

Overall, I’d really suggest snowshoeing as an alternative(替代物) to the more well-known winter sports. Besides being a lot cheaper than skiing, it’s easier and is considered to be a lot safer!

【1】The author soon got used to walking with the snowshoes because he ________.

A．had experience in ice skating

B．often climbed trees in the forest

C．was good at swimming with flippers

D．often went hiking in mountainous areas

【2】What does “the descent” in paragraph 3 refer to?

【3】What does the author think of snowshoeing at last?

A．Fun.

B．Uncomfortable.

C．Dangerous.

D．Practical.

【4】What type of writing is this text?

A．A sports report.

B．An advertisement for sledge.

C．A personal experience.

D．A travel guide.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Among the note-taking forms in today’s US schools, the Cornell method is widely recommended. Providing a form for concentrating and organizing notes, the Cornell method sets up a system to direct students to 【1】  the paper into two columns. The note-taking column, which is usually on the right, is twice the size of the key word column on the left. The student should leave five to seven lines blank, at the bottom of the page.

Notes from a lecture or teaching occupy the note-taking column which 【2】 contain the main ideas of the textbook or lecture. Most 【3】 ideas and long sentences are avoided while 【4】 or abbreviations （缩写） are preferred instead. To assist with future reviews, 【5】 thoughts or questions should be noted down as soon as possible so that the students may 【6】 to these points for reflection or further research. The key-word column is a(n) 【7】 place to note down these ideas. These ideas may later turn into potential research results as students are always encouraged to reflect on the notes 【8】 or go deep into the questions further.

Within 24 hours after the note-taking, the student must revise and then produce a short summary in the bottom space. Such move helps him to 【9】 the topic better. When preparing for a test, the student has 【10】 to a brief but detailed record of the previous classes.
