题目内容

Mother’s Day is usually celebrated on the second Sunday of May every year. Do you know that a mom deserves a special gift this year for Mother’s Day? Sure, flowers can always brighten Mother’s Day and a dinner out is always appreciated. However, doesn’t she deserve something more personal or something that lasts longer than an evening?

    I’m talking about the gift of fitness. Improved fitness is a gift that is invaluable to everyone. When you give a woman the gift of fitness, you are helping her open her door to better health. I can’t think of a more thoughtful gift that shows the recipient (接受者)how much you care about their well-being. By giving the gift of fitness you are providing them with unlimited health benefits. Besides, it’s a gift that you can truly feel proud to give.

Of course, we all know that exercising can help people stay slim and fit. But, do you also know about all the other great benefits of exercising? Daily physical activities reduce stress and help you sleep better. Fitness has been linked to reducing the risk of some diseases and to warding off depression. Researchers also believe that strength training can help prevent osteoporosis (骨质疏松). Not to mention that exercising also improves self-esteem, increases energy and helps you be able to do continuous work for longer.

All moms would find these benefits extremely great. If they are like most of us, they have probably even mentioned how they would like to drop a few pounds or just get in better shape. In fact, experts say that about 62% of Americans are currently on a diet. By giving the gift of fitness, you are helping provide your mom with extra motivation. She may be more motivated to actually get fit because she doesn’t want to feel guilty about ignoring such a thoughtful gift.

1. The first paragraph is likely to tell us that ________.

A. we should give a special gift to our mom for Mother’s Day

    B. we should invite our mom to a dinner for Mother’s Day

    C. it’s good to send flowers to moms for Mother’s Day

    D. moms aren’t worth special gifts for Mother’s Day

2. The underlined word “invaluable”(in paragraph 2) means ________.

A. priceless       B. worthless      C. useless       D. helpless

3. According to this passage, the gift of fitness will ________.

A. make moms feel prouder

    B. let moms free from illnesses

    C. keep moms having a healthy diet

    D. encourage moms to do more exercise

4. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?

    A. Better Pay Attention to Your Mother’s Health

    B. Give the Gift of Fitness This Mother’s Day

    C. Moms Like to Accept the Gift of Fitness

    D. Help Your Mother Keep a Good Shape
