It’s no secret that your personal characteristics directly affect how you interact with the world—but you might be surprised at just how deep it goes. Experts think that your personality can even affect how you exercise and influence what sports are suitable for you.
Highly Sensitive
“Highly sensitive people may be more uncomfortable with group exercise classes or team sports where they feel their every move is being observed. Additionally, they may feel more upset about an ineffective or a poor workout，” says researcher Elaine Aron.
For such people, individual or non competitive activities like biking, running and hiking are ideal.
Type A Personality
Type A individuals often have an “all or nothing approach” to exercise. This personality type is known for sticking closely to their plan, not to mention being super competitive. However，this can cause them to stick too closely to a fitness routine, which means they might try to push past an injury.
To get better exercise results, Type A people need to be aware that following an exercise plan too strictly may limit their progress. They should be more flexible and listen to their body, especially when they are in pain.
Type B Personality
This laid back group may get too lazy about their exercise plan, which prevents them from seeing results. They are often less willing to devote enough time and energy to their fitness goals especially if exercise is something that makes them anxious.
Type B individuals succeed in creative and cooperative environments, so team sports and group gym classes may be perfect.
Remember, there are plenty of ways you can adapt a fitness plan to suit your needs, regardless of your characteristics. Just keep in mind what you like.

Keeping fit often means sharing a busy pathway with cyclists, runners, and walkers, but imagine facing the task of doing it all without being able to see or hear. It is a challenge many disabled athletes face, unless someone agrees to be their eyes and ears.
Newly formed group Achilles Brisbane pairs vision and hearing-impaired(视觉和听觉受损的) athletes with people who would like to guide them.
Jane Britt, president of Achilles Brisbane, who is vision and hearing-impaired, said, “When we go out, it’s much less frightening to have someone beside us that has full hearing to listen for us and tell us what’s there.”
Ms.Cullen and Ms.Britt meet up most Saturday mornings to take part in the five kilometer park run. Their partnership is built on trust, but Ms. Britt said that it took time to develop.
Ms.Britt said it took an unexpected storm for her to trust Ms. Cullen completely. “There was violent rain, my glasses were broken and we were walking together. I suddenly had to tell her I couldn’t see anything, and I was going to have to completely trust her. From that time I knew it was going to work because she was so good about dealing with the special situation we both found ourselves in，” she said.
Isabella Allen and her seeing eye dog Tatum are two new additions to the Achilles Brisbane. Ms. Allen kept active by rowing, running and cycling but found it difficult to keep going as her vision became worse. After nearly giving up completely, she worked up the courage to ask Achilles Brisbane to find someone to share a boat with her.
Ms. Allen said the fear of not finding anyone to row with almost stopped her from reaching out to Achilles Brisbane. “But, they found people and matched me to them，” she said. “It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”

A primary school principal in north China has become the latest Internet celebrity for leading some cool moves during a morning exercise routine with his students.
Every morning, 40 year old principal Zhang Pengfei at the Xi Guan Primary School in Linyi county, Shanxi province would lead about 700 pupils on the playground in a synchronised “ghost shuffle” routine—a dance that incorporates contemporary jazz steps with heel, toe and arm movements. The bold headmaster thought the fun and energetic exercise routine would better encourage students to get active instead of “being glued to their mobile phones”．
The school’s new 30 minute dance routine has replaced the government imposed broadcast callisthenics (健身操) programme, a short workout that has been a requirement at every primary, middle and secondary school in China since 1951. “I thought we needed a change because the students have been losing interest in doing the broadcast callisthenics routine, ” Zhang told Southern Metropolis Daily.
The dedicated principal said he came across a group of people doing the “ghost shuffle” routine at a public plaza last summer and decided to learn the dance himself. “I thought the dance would be great for kids, ” he said. “The music is full of energy and it really gets the happy feeling of flowing.” In October, he introduced the choreographed (编舞) routine to all of his students and shortly after, even teachers and staff were joining in.
“Now the students aren’t constantly on their phones. I sometimes catch them watching different dance routine videos and learning new moves！” the proud headmaster told reporters.
The video quickly went around on Chinese social media, with a Weibo topic page titled “principal leads students in ghost dance routine” gathering 250 million views. “This is perhaps the best adaption of sport and entertainment for children，” a comment on Weibo read.

C．People hold a negative attitude towards the adaptation.
D．People hold a supportive attitude towards the adaptation.

It’s not easy feeling like you’re always under the spotlight being judged for each little mistake you make. Your mind is in an endless circle playing what you said and did over and over again. You wish you had a time capsule to go back and make things right if you find mistakes. You fear what others will think about you and that they will reject and dislike you. You seek to be socially perfect.
Academically, you work long endless hours just to make those excellent marks. Although most would say “it’s good to have high standards”, they have no idea about the internal hell you put yourself through to achieve perfection. If you come up less than your desired goal you feel as though you have failed, but you’re far from failing, you just don’t see it that way. So instead you are telling yourself that you’re stupid, and not smart. The pressure you place on yourself weighs you down and you wear the “not good enough” label each and every day.
You not only have high standards for yourself but you also have them for others. If people don’t perform up to your expectations, then you think they are incompetent. This causes a lot of frustration because you can’t trust anyone to get things right. So instead of being a team player you fly solo and try to do two or three jobs at once. Your unrealistic expectations cause you to criticize and judge others and that leads to problems in other areas of your life.
The attempt to be perfect is called perfectionism and it’s the unachievable American dream that’s damaging our emotional and mental health. We strive for perfection with our body, in our performance, and in our relationships. In a society that overstates mistakes, is it any wonder that so many young people attempt the impossible task of being perfect
We all have flaws, fears, and make mistakes, and that’s perfectly OK. It’s our imperfections that make life interesting and they help us grow into a stronger and more adaptable person. We don’t have to strive to achieve the impossible. We are designed to be perfectly imperfect.
12．What might be the most suitable title of the text
A．Far from Failing
B．Perfectly Imperfect
C．Perfectionism Phenomenon
D．Unachievable American Dream
13．Which of the following is a perfectionist most likely to agree
A．Nobody is perfect.
B．Be generous with praise.
C．There is no best, only better.
D．A contented mind is an everlasting feast.
14．What can we infer from the underlined sentence in paragraph 4
A．More and more people are tolerating mistakes.
B．The society is partly to blame for perfectionism.
C．Many young people find it impossible to be perfect.
D．It’s unusual for a society to seek perfectionism nowadays.
15．What does the author think of imperfection
A．It’s part of our life.
B．It’s unbearable.

You've probably read about the advantages of sleeping on newly acquired data, but what about taking it with you to your spinning (动感单车运动）class
A new Dutch study suggests that delayed exercise can give us a boost on declarative (陈述的）memory. 1________ While the study didn't nail down an exact, effective time frame, the researchers used a four-hour delay between taking the data and hitting the exercise bike.
Here's how it went down. They subjected 72 test subjects to a 40-minute learning session and tested their memory. 2________ The first group transitioned to exercise while the new information(a series of 90 picture-location associations) was still fresh. The second group waited four hours before exercise, while the third
group did nothing.
3________ The results indicated that those who exercised four hours after learning showed a marked advantage in the second memory test.
4________ And it covers the effects of exercise on a single piece of the human memory machine. As the authors point out, previous studies indicated that immediate exercise can also provide a boost, but to procedural (程序性的）memory consolidation.
But if future studies support these findings, perhaps we'll all have to re-evaluate those P.E. classes we took in high school. 5________ Maybe the answer is yes.
A. Most doubt the study.
B. Of course, this is just one study.
C. We should do more research to test it.

V. 概要写作 阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Researchers at Syracuse University in New York tried to answer the question why people take selfies. They came up with some surprising answers.
People who post selfies and use editing software to make themselves look better show behavior connected to narcissism. Narcissists are people who think very highly of themselves, especially how they look. Because social media can be superficial, it is a good place for people to work towards satisfying their own vanity. Superficial, social media is mostly used by people to share unimportant information about their lives-not deeply personal issues.
There are other reasons, besides narcissism, why people post selfies.
The Syracuse University research found that people who post group selfies show a need for popularity and a need to belong to a group.
Other findings from the study include:
Men who post selfies show more of a need to be seen as popular than women who post selfies.
The Newhouse School's Associate Professor Makana Chock worked on the study. According to Crock, selfies should not be seen as completely negative. Some people feel “peer pressure”＂to post selfies. And some follow the popular belief that if there is no picture of an event or experience, it did not really happen. Posting selfies on social media is not all that different from what people have done for many years.
On trips and special events, our parents and grandparents used cameras instead of phones to take photos. Before social media, people would bring back photos to show friends and family, You had no choice but to look at them. If you were a nice person, you commented about how nice everyone in the photos looked, especially children and the person showing the photos. That was the old way of "clicking" like.
On social media, it is a different experience. People can decide not to look at photos of their friends and family-even if they click “like” or even "love" under the Facebook selfie.

【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过对“完美主义者”的心态和做法的描述，向我们指出，完美是不可能实现的。正是我们的“不完美”使得我们的生活变得有趣，帮助我们成长。
12．B　解析：标题归纳题。文章通篇讨论完美主义者的心态和做法，并在最后一段得出结论“It’s our imperfections that make life interesting and they help...We don’t have to strive to achieve the impossible. We are designed to be perfectly imperfect.”，由此可知，正是我们的“不完美”使得我们的生活变得有趣，帮助我们成为更强大且适应性更强的人，我们没必要去实现不可能的事情，不完美反而造就更好的我们。故选B项。
13．C　解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句中的“you wear the ‘not good enough’ label each and every day”可知，完美主义者总认为自己不够好。C项(没有最好，只有更好)符合完美主义者的心态。故选C项。
14．B　解析：句意理解题。根据第四段中的“The attempt to be perfect is called perfectionism and...in our relationships.”可知，美国梦就是追求完美，这个无法实现的梦想正在破坏着我们的情感和心理健康。美国梦代表的是美国社会，而这个夸大错误、追求完美的社会对年轻人追求完美的行为产生了一定影响，所以这个社会应为完美主义负部分责任。故选B项。
15．A　解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，我们都有缺点，都会犯错误，正是这些不完美使得我们的生活变得有趣，帮助我们成为更强大且适应性更强的人，所以它是我们生活的一部分。故选A项。

You've probably read about the advantages of sleeping on newly acquired data, but what about taking it with you to your spinning (动感单车运动）class
A new Dutch study suggests that delayed exercise can give us a boost on declarative (陈述的）memory. 1________ While the study didn't nail down an exact, effective time frame, the researchers used a four-hour delay between taking the data and hitting the exercise bike.
Here's how it went down.They subjected 72 test subjects to a 40-minute learning session and tested their memory. 2________ The first group transitioned to exercise while the new information(a series of 90 picture-location associations) was still fresh. The second group waited four hours before exercise, while the third
group did nothing.
3________ The results indicated that those who exercised four hours after learning showed a marked advantage in the second memory test.
4________ And it covers the effects of exercise on a single piece of the human memory machine.As the authors point out, previous studies indicated that immediate exercise can also provide a boost,but to procedural (程序性的）memory consolidation.
But if future studies support these findings, perhaps we'll all have to re-evaluate those P.E.classes we took in high school. 5________ Maybe the answer is yes.
A. Most doubt the study.
B. Of course, this is just one study.
C. We should do more research to test it.
D. Then they divided them into three groups.
E. This is the kind devoted to basic facts and verbal knowledge.
F. Forty-eight hours later, the researchers tested everyone again.
G. Did Coach Steel's obsession with the volleyball team actually help you do well in your chemistry class later

V. 概要写作 阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Researchers at Syracuse University in New York tried to answer the question why people take selfies. They came up with some surprising answers.
People who post selfies and use editing software to make themselves look better show behavior connected to narcissism. Narcissists are people who think very highly of themselves, especially how they look. Because social media can be superficial, it is a good place for people to work towards satisfying their own vanity. Superficial, social media is mostly used by people to share unimportant information about their lives-not deeply personal issues.
There are other reasons, besides narcissism, why people post selfies.
The Syracuse University research found that people who post group selfies show a need for popularity and a need to belong to a group.
Other findings from the study include:
Men who post selfies show more of a need to be seen as popular than women who post selfies.
The Newhouse School's Associate Professor Makana Chock worked on the study. According to Crock, selfies should not be seen as completely negative. Some people feel “peer pressure”＂to post selfies. And some follow the popular belief that if there is no picture of an event or experience, it did not really happen. Posting selfies on social media is not all that different from what people have done for many years.
On trips and special events, our parents and grandparents used cameras instead of phones to take photos. Before social media, people would bring back photos to show friends and family, You had no choice but to look at them. If you were a nice person, you commented about how nice everyone in the photos looked, especially children and the person showing the photos. That was the old way of "clicking" like.
On social media, it is a different experience. People can decide not to look at photos of their friends and family-even if they click “like” or even "love" under the Facebook selfie.
