5.Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook from scratch?Have you been doing internet shopping rather than going to the stores?What can't you be bothered to do?
A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of adults are so lazy they'd catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs.
Just over 2000people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health,Britain's largest health charity.The results were astonishing.
About one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken,they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up.
More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus.Worryingly,of the 654respondents with children,64% said they were often too tired to play with them.
This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese (very fat) before they start school.
Dr Sarah Dauncey,medical director of Nuffield Health,said:"People need to get fitter,not just for their own sake,but for the sake of their families,friends and evidently their pets too.
"If we don't start to take control of this problem,a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most  rudimentary of tasks."
And Scotland's largest city,Glasgow,was shamed as the most inactive city in the UK,with 75% surveyed admitting they do not get enough exercise,followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton,both with 67%.
The results cause serious challenges for the National Health Service,where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40years and are costing billions of pounds every year.

61.What causes children in the UK to be obese?D
A.Eating ready meal             B.Watching TV
C.Doing Internet shopping       D.Being lazy
62.What can be inferred from the passage?D
A.British people are too lazy to do anything.
B.Internet shopping will do harm to your health.
C.Many people would not run to catch a bus in Britain.
D.People should be more active and take regular exercise to keep fit.
63.Which of the following is Not true according to the passage?A
A.One sixth of British people use remote control when watching TV.
B.People will benefit not only themselves but their families by getting fit.
C.Fatness can cause diseases such as heart disease and cancer.
D.More people get obesity-related illnesses now than 40years ago.
64.What does the underlined word rudimentary most probably mean?A
A.basic          B.serious       C.vital        D.hard
65.All the following are among the most lazy cities in the UK exceptC.
A.Glasgow    B.Birmingham     C.Nuffield     D.Southampton.

13.Chinese netizens who like to create and use cyber words such as"geilivable"might find a new regulation very"ungeilivable". The new regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication last week banned the use of Chinglish words created by netizens for publishing in the Chinese language.
"Geilivable",combining the pinyin geili (giving strength) with the English suffix (后缀) for adjectives,literally means"giving power"or"cool".Different suffixes and prefixes were then added to the word."Hengeilivable"means"very cool",and"ungeilivable"means"dull,not cool at all".
Cyber language is popular among Chinese netizens,who create Chinglish words to reflect phenomenon in society.One example is"antizen",which refers to college graduates who earn a meager salary and live in small rented apartments,like tiny and laborious ants.
David Tool,a professor with the Beijing International Studies University,said it's very interesting to combine Chinese with English to create new words."English is no longer mysterious to the Chinese people.They can use the language in a flexible way according to their own experiences,"Tool said.
At the announcement of the regulation by the General Administration of Press and Publication,netizens expressed their concern.
"The administration is totally'ungeilivable',"said a netizen named laoda1713."I know other netizens will shed tears with me…it is a good chance to enrich our language".
"Language is always developing,"said a columnist,Wang Pei."It needs to be updated to absorb foreign culture and folk wisdom."
But an unnamed official with the administration said that,in fact,many senior staff from news media who supported the regulation were worried that years later,the younger generation would forget how to use formal Chinese expressions.The official also pointed out that the regulation was only for formal publications in Chinese language,and it only banned Chinglish words in the publication.

17.In our culture,the sources of what we call a sense of"mastery"-feeling important and worthwhile-and the sources of what we call a sense of"pleasure"-finding life enjoyable-are not always the same.Women often are told"You can't have it all."Sometimes what the speaker really is saying is:"You choose a career,so you can't expect to have closer relationships or a happy family life."or"You have a wonderful husband and children-what's all this about wanting a career?"But women need to understand and develop both aspects of well-being,if they are to feel good about themselves.
Our study shows that,for women,well-being(康乐) has two aspects.One is mastery,which includes self-respect,a sense of control over your life,and low levels of anxiety and depression.Mastery is closely related to the"doing"side of life,to work and activity.Pleasure is the other aspect,and it is made up of happiness,satisfaction and optimism.It is tied more closely to the"feeling"side of life.The two are independent of each other.A woman could be high in mastery and low in pleasure,and vice versa (反之亦然).For example,a woman who has a good job,but whose mother has just died,might be feeling very good about herself and in control of her work life,but the pleasure side could be damaged for a time.
The concepts of mastery and pleasure can help us identify the sources of well-being for women,and correct past mistakes.In the past,women were encouraged to look only at the feeling side of life as the source of all well-being.But we know that both mastery and pleasure are important.And mastery seems to be achieved largely through work.In our study,all the groups of employed women are valued significantly higher in mastery than women who are not employed.
A woman's well-being is developed when she takes on multiple (多项的) roles.At least?by middle adulthood,the women who are involved in a combination of roles-marriages,motherhood,and employment-are the highest in well-being,in spite of warnings about stress and strain.

64.It can be inferred from the first paragraph thatD.
A.for women,a sense of"mastery"is more important than a sense of"pleasure"
B.for women,a sense of"pleasure"is more important than a sense of"mastery"
C.women can't have a sense of"mastery"and a sense of"pleasure"at the same time
D.a sense of"mastery"and a sense of"pleasure"are both necessary to women

A.negative       B.positive        C.neutral (中立)  D.realistic

D.Multiple Roles of Women in Society.
14.Sometimes people call each other"scared cat",but have you ever thought about this expression?When a cat is frightened,its heart starts beating faster,its muscles get tense,and there are changes in the chemicals in its blood-stream.If the danger continues,this animal will do one of the two things.It will defend itself,or it will run away as fast as it can.
   Something like this also happens to people.When we are excited,angry,scared,or aroused by other emotions,our bodies go through many physical changes.Our hearts beat faster,and our muscles get tense.All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react.We,too,get ready to defend ourselves or run.Human beings,however,have a problem.If we give way to our feelings and let them take over,we can get into trouble.Have you ever said something in anger and regretted later?Have you ever shouted at a teacher or told somebody you were lonely and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut?It isn't always wise to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it's always smarter to hide our feelings?No!If you keep feelings like anger hidden away or bottled up inside,your body stays tense.Physical illnesses can develop,and you can feel disturbed badly inside.Itcan actually be bad for your health.Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don't just go away.It's as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard.You might not be able to see them,but before long you'd smell them.And if you opened the cupboard,chances are you'd see little fruit flies hovering(盘旋) all over them.They'd be rotten.You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard.You can hide them and you can pretend they don't exist,but they'll still be around.And at last you'll have to deal with them,just like those bananas.
