A small study out of Skidmore College examined the advantages of morning vs, evening exercise for both women and men. Paul, professor for health at Skidmore, led the study.
“We had the groups divided into evening and morning groups,” he says. “We found women and men answered differently to different types of exercise depending on the time of the day, which surprised us.”
The study showed that for women who want to lower blood pressure (血压), the risk of heart disease or reduce fat, morning exercise works best. Those women hoping for upper body muscle (肌肉) gains or mood (心情) improvement should consider evening exercise. For the men, the findings were somewhat different: Evening exercise lowers blood pressure, the risk of heart disease, and feelings of tiredness. But similar to women, they burn more fat with morning exercise.
“For many people, the best time to exercise will depend on their chronotype,” says Heisz, author of Move the Body, Heal the Mind.
“Chronotype is your body’s natural habit to sleep at a certain time—it’s what decides whether you’re a night owl or an early bird. For the 25% of the population that considers themselves a night owl, getting both enough sleep and enough exercise can be difficult,” adds Heisz.
He continues, “Sleep—which provides your body the necessary time to recover (恢复) and make gains from exercise—should always be the first choice. When it comes to exercise, regardless of research on the advantages of certain exercises at particular times of the day, your results will not be good if it doesn’t allow enough time for sleep.”
24. What can women get by doing evening exercise according to the study
A. A fat loss. B. A good mood.
C. A lower blood pressure. D. A smaller risk of heart disease.
25. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 5
A. Give an example. B. Tell the difference. C Explain a term D. Do an experiment.
26. What does Heisz think is important to achieve good results of exercise
A. Enough sleep. B. Low-fat food. C. Plenty of water. D. Lots of exercise.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. A Night Owl or An Early Bird B. Why Fitness Plan Being Important
C. How to Change Your Exercise Time D. The Best Time of a Day to Exercise
C
Do you remember the name of your kindergarten teacher I do, mine. Her name was Mrs. White.
I don’t remember much about what we learned in her class, but my mother once told me that we used to write a lot. And I would bring back what I wrote and she would look at it and see there were so many mistakes. But no red corrections. And always a star. Sometimes even a Good! The scrawl (潦草的笔迹) in that worried my mother, so one day when she met Mrs. White for one of those Parent-Teacher meetings, she asked her why she never corrected my mistakes. Why she never red-pencilled in the right spellings of words or pointed out grammatical errors.
Mrs. White said, “The children are just beginning to get excited about using words, about forming sentences. I don’t want to dampen that enthusiasm with red ink. Spelling and grammar can wait…” What my mother gave me was the gist of what she could remember. But I grew up learning to use words with loving confidence just like that.
And it occurs to me that if Mrs. White had used her red pen more precisely. I probably wouldn’t be telling you about this now. I look back now and think she must have been a rather extraordinary teacher—to restrain (限定, 限制) her red pen. To allow the joy, wonder and excitement of expression flower—however faultily—like that.
I used to misspell “beautiful” a lot. I never could quite remember that the “e” went before the “a”. It annoyed my teacher in high school endlessly. Eventually the “e” s and “a” s that were wrong placed in “beautiful” settled into their right places. I am glad I didn’t wait on them though. “Pretty” is easier to spell but it doesn’t hold as much as you mean sometimes.
And thanks to Mrs. White I had no concerns about writing what I meant, even if I couldn’t quite spell it out. Because life isn’t pretty. It’s beautiful.
28. What worried his mother when the author was in kindergarten
A. The author’s unwillingness to go to school. B. The teacher’s terrible attitude to the author.
C. The teacher’s ignorance of the author’s mistakes. D. The author’s failure in exams and scrawl in homework.
29. What does the underlined word “dampen” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Reduce. B. Gain. C. Awaken. D. Inspire.
30. What can we learn from the fifth paragraph
A. The author preferred using the word “pretty”.
B. The author finally succeeded in spelling “beautiful” correctly.
C. The teacher in high school disliked the author.
D. The author owed all his own spelling problems to Mrs. White.
31. Which of the following can be used to describe Mrs. White
A. Generous and kind. B. Enthusiastic and careful.
C. Honest and brave. D. Far-sighted and tolerant.
D
IT’S A TYPICAL morning: you wake up, take a shower, brush your teeth, and then prick (刺;扎) your arm with a tiny needle. Wait, what Unless you have a serious disease such as diabetes, you probably haven’t ever tested your own blood. But in the future, that might change.
The company Cor already sells a system for home blood testing. You stick your arm using a supposedly painless, one-off, blood-drawing cartridge (针筒) about the size of a lipstick. Then you stick the cartridge into a device (装置) that looks like the base for an electric toothbrush. A few minutes later, an app on your. phone buzzes with updated information, including your current health data (数据) and tips on what to eat and how to exercise during the day.
It’s true that blood contains a wealth of information about a person’s health. Blood tests can show if a person is infected with a disease or at risk for a variety of problems, including a heart attack or a stroke. But most people don’t test their own blood until a doctor says it’s time. Healthy young adults get regular blood tests about every five years. These tests happen at a lab, where a technician or a nurse sticks a long needle into the arm to draw out several tubes full of blood. Cor and similar companies, such as Wellness FX, are trying to change all that. They think people deserve access to more information about their own health.
But not everyone is convinced that regular blood testing for health y people is a great idea. Cor’s system is expensive and may not offer much benefit. “The lightest result here is that you lose your money and then you’re reminded to get more sleep and to eat more fruits, vegetables, and fish,” Pieter Cohen of Harvard Medical School told the New York Times. “The worst result is that you end up getting frightened by probably abnormal results that are actually completely normal for you.”
Plus, the results of a home blood test might be wrong. It’s hard to get accurate results from a tiny amount of blood. So what do you think Is monitoring your own health via pinpricks the way of the future Or is it better to leave blood testing to medical professionals
32. Why does the author mention the typical morning in the first paragraph
A. To explain a scene. B. To provide an example.
C. To make a comparison. D. To introduce the topic.
33. What can we learn about the company Cor’s blood-testing system
A. It is painless and cheap to use.
B. It has won popularity among people.
C. It may give advice on our diet according to the health data.
D. It offers accurate health information about our body
34. What’s Pieter Cohen’s attitude towards this kind of system
A. Negative. B. Unclear. C. Supportive. D. Objective.
35. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. Home blood testing: your health monitor!
B. Home blood tests: yes or no
C. A new system of improving your health.
D. Should blood tests be allowed at home
