热点六 树立科学观念,倡导健康生活
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2024·南京模拟)If anyone asked if I get enough exercise, my answer
would be clear: Yes, I make a point of setting aside time to sweat, get my
heart pumping and move around.
I probably would not mention that I prefer to drive the half mile to pick up
my coffee instead of taking a 15-minute walk.Or that using the drive through
sounds infinitely more appealing than actually getting out of my car.Or that
you’d rarely spot me choosing to take the stairs at the end of the day.
None of these shortcuts on their own feel like that a big deal.After all, I
worked out today, right? But added up these are slowly taking away a
sometimes overlooked source of metabolic (新陈代谢) health.
It’s a concept that goes by the name non-exercise activity thermogenesis
(产生热量), or NEAT, for short.This is essentially all the calories that a
person burns through their daily activity excluding purposeful physical
exercise.Think of the low-effort movements that you string together over the
course of your day — things like household chores, walking in a grocery,
climbing the stairs, bobbing your leg up and down at your desk, or cooking
dinner.
Researchers have made progress understanding how NEAT works — and
how we can benefit from it.They’ve learned that even small behavior changes
can increase or decrease how much NEAT you get, and this can shape your
health in powerful ways.What’s clear is that many of us who live screen-based
lives have the capacity to put more NEAT into our daily lives, not necessarily
through dramatic changes in our lifestyle, but small-scale ones that mostly just
require a shift in mindset.
NEAT has a simple idea at its core: get up and move around.The power
of NEAT is that it’s available to absolutely everybody.It’s not that NEAT
should be considered a substitute for physical exercise, which has its own well-
established health benefits.But increasing NEAT can be more accessible for
some people, especially those who don’t exercise as much, if at all.

“非运动活动产热”,其实就是指那些通过非正式和刻意的锻炼来产生
热量的一切日常生活中的活动。

解析: 细节理解题。根据第三、四段可知,NEAT指那些通过非正
式和刻意的锻炼来产生热量的一切日常生活中的活动,其核心是要站起
来走动。因此做家务属于此类运动,而坐在办公室不应该算运动。
√
3. What is needed to put more NEAT into our daily lives?( )
A. A great ambition.
B. Dramatic changes.
C. A change in mental attitude.
D. Purposeful physical exercise.
解析: 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知,作者认为:我们生活中
要增加更多的NEAT,需要的不是重大的改变,只是小小的行为改变和
心态转变。
√
4. What is the author’s final conclusion about NEAT?( )
A. NEAT is suitable for sports lovers.
B. It’s difficult to increase NEAT indeed.
C. Physical exercise can be replaced by NEAT.
D. Both NEAT and physical exercise are necessary.
解析: 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,作者的结论是:NEAT人
人都唾手可及,对不怎么锻炼的人尤为重要,但是,NEAT并不能完全
取代正式和刻意的锻炼。

(2024·无锡模拟)When it comes to weight loss, diet and exercise are
usually thought of as the two key factors that will achieve results. However,
sleep is an often-neglected lifestyle factor that also plays an important role.
The recommended sleep duration for adults is seven to nine hours a night,
but many people often sleep for less than this. Research has shown that sleeping
less than the recommended amount is linked to having greater body fat, and
can also influence how easily you lose weight on a calorie-controlled diet.
Typically, the goal for weight loss is usually to decrease body fat while
retaining as much muscle mass as possible. Not obtaining the correct amount of
sleep can determine how much fat is lost as well as how much muscle mass you
retain while on a calorie restricted diet.
One study found that sleeping 5.5 hours each night over a two-week period
while on a calorie-restricted diet resulted in less fat loss when compared to
sleeping 8.5 hours each night. But it also resulted in a greater loss of fat-free
mass (including muscle).
There are several reasons why shorter sleep may be associated with higher
body weight and affect weight loss. These include changes in appetite and food
selection.
Sleep influences two important appetite hormones (荷尔蒙) in our
body — leptin and ghrelin. The former decreases appetite, while the latter
increases appetite. One study found that short sleep was associated with higher
levels of ghrelin and lower levels of leptin.
Along with changes in appetite hormones, reduced sleep has also been
shown to impact on food selection. Researchers have found that the areas of the
brain responsible for reward are more active in response to food after sleep loss
(six nights of only four hours’ sleep) when compared to people who had
good sleep (six nights of nine hours’ sleep).
This could possibly explain why sleep-deprived people snack more often
and tend to choose carbohydrate-rich foods and sweet-tasting snacks,
compared to those who get enough sleep.
