Phys ed (physical education) is making a comeback as a part of the school core curriculum(核心课程)，but with a difference. While group sports are still part of the curriculum, the new way is to teach skills that are useful beyond gym class. Instead of learning how to climb a rope, children are taught to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance(忍耐力). In this way，kids are given the tools and skills and experiences so they can lead a physically active life for the rest of their life.

Considering that 15 percent of American children aged 6 to 18 are overweight, supporters say more money and thought must be put into phys ed curriculum. In many cases, that may mean not just replacing the old gym-class model with fitness programs but also starting up phys ed programs because school boards often "put P.E. on the chopping block (砧板), cutting it entirely or decreasing its teachers or the days it is offered," says Alicia Moag-Stahlberg, the executive director of Action for Health Kids. The difference in phys ed programs is partly due to the lack of a national standard. "Physical education needs to be part of the core curriculum," she added.

The wisdom of the new approach has some scientific support. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin have showed how effective the fit-for-life model of gym class can be. They observed how 50 overweight children lost more weight when they cycled and skied cross-country (越野)than when they played sports. The researchers also found that teaching sports like football resulted in less overall movement, partly because some reluctant（不情愿的）students were able to sit on the bench.

    Another problem with simply teaching group sports in gym class is that only a small percentage of students continue playing them after graduating from high school. The new method teaches skills that translate to adulthood.

1.According to the passage, what is usually taught in the old gym class?

 A. Lift weights  B. Climb a rope  C. Cycle   D. Have a balanced diet

2.What does Alicia Moag-Stahlberg mean by saying “some school boards put P. E. on the chopping block”?

A. Schools do not pay enough attention to P. E..

B. Schools welcome P. E. but do not have time for it.

C. Schools put P.E. in the first place.

D. Schools cut down other subjects’ time for P. E..

3.Which is NOT the reason to carry out phys ed programs according to the passage?

A. More teenagers are overweight.

B. Traditional group sports teaching is not effective.

C. Students need to learn some skills to help them lead a physically active life.

D. Phys ed programs need less money to support.

4.How many problems are mentioned in the passage with simply teaching group sports?

A. Two    B. Three    C. Four     D. One

5.What’s the difference between the come-back phys ed and the ordinary gym-class model?

A. The Phys ed teaches group sports.

B. The Phys ed provides more fitness programs.

C. The Phys ed teaches tools and skills which could be used in the future life.

D. The Phys ed has more support from the government.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多于选项。

 1. Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.

Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.

However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. 2.  Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims as its own. 3. . No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.

If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not.  4. 

Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs. You can see that birds have a language all their own. 5.

A. Only he and his family are welcome there. www.jk.zy.w.com

C. Have you ever heard birds sing?

D. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.

E. Have you ever wondered why birds sing?

F. Most of the language is widely used.

G. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
