Teenagers' fitness is now a major concern, and physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness. Exercise makes your body strong, and helps you to keep the right body weight. Sports scientist Dr. Helen Lopez offers the following advice to teenagers: “First, you need to find out your present level of fitness. Then you can design a programme that will help you become healthier.”
Dr. Lopez suggests that there are three levels of fitness that need a change of lifestyle. “Overweight” means that the person gets very little exercise and often has a serious weight problem. “Inactive” means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight. “Active” refers to people who take part in sports and other physical activities, but do not have a high fitness level.
According to Dr. Lopez, overweight teenagers should work out to keep healthy. “Ride a bike, play volleyball or basketball for a while, and go for a twenty minute walk each day. All these will help to burn calories.” Inactive teenagers should do similar activities, but add some bending and stretching exercises, such as push ups and sit ups, starting with twenty of each a day. “Inactive people can take a little more exercise than overweight people because their bodies are stronger,” Dr. Lopez said. The same rule applies to(适用于) active teenagers.
Dr. Lopez suggests one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive exercise, together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities.
“These are really important in order to prevent injuries,” Dr. Lopez said. Some weight training and other body strengthening exercises could also be planned in the programme in order to increase the person's strength.

三、阅读理解
1. C 细节理解题。由第二段第三句“‘Inactive’ means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight.”可知,不活跃的青少年超重不是很严重。
2.D 细节理解题。根据首段末句、第三段第三句“All these will help to burn calories.”以及末段末句可知,A、B、C项在文中都提到了,文中并没有提到体育运动可以让青少年长高。
3.B 细节理解题。由倒数第二段Dr. Lopez所说的内容可知,为了避免受伤,人们可以做一些拉伸和弯曲运动。
4.D 主旨大意题。本文在首段提出“Teenagers' fitness is now a major concern, and physical exercise is very important.”然后分析了青少年中存在的几种健康状况并且给出了一些具体的运动方案。由此可知这篇文章主要是讲青少年的健康问题,所以D选项为最佳标题。
四、七选五阅读
1. G 根据上文可知,一些成年人和孩子担心自己的体重,想要节食。再结合下文,叙述了孩子们通常不需要这样节食、小孩节食的后果、什么人需要节食等,推知空白处是转折部分,建议小孩不应该节食。故选G项。
2. F 下文“When someone diets to lose weight, the person is trying to eat fewer calories than the body uses. (当有人节食减肥时,他试图摄入比身体消耗的更少的卡路里)”与F. All foods and many drinks contain calories, a kind of energy.(所有的食物和饮料都含有卡路里——一种能量)承接自然,前后两句是因果关系。因为所有的食物和饮料都含有卡路里,所以节食时,人试图摄入比身体消耗的更少的卡路里,即摄入更少的食物。故选F项。
3. D 由上一句“Kids usually do not need to diet in this way.”和下一句“During this time, kids need many kinds of healthy foods to keep their bodies growing properly.”可知,孩子不需要节食,因为孩子与成年人不同,还在长身体,需要多种健康的食物保持身体的正常生长,由此推测设空处应起承上启下的作用。故选D项。
4. B 由上一句“Some kids are overweight, but even overweight kids often can improve their health simply by eating nutritious foods and being more active.”和下一句“But kids may hurt their health even more by doing something drastic(极端的), like skipping meals or deciding to eat only vegetables.”可知,设空处应起承上启下的作用,B. Being overweight can cause health problems.“超重会引起健康问题”切题。故选B项。
5. E 分析段落结构可知,设空处为小标题。由下文的内容可知,本段讲述如果你对自己的体重有疑问,可以跟医生交谈。故选E项。
