8.Nearly half of elementary and high schools in the US use the Presidential Fitness Test.It checks kids'fitness levels.Students are tested at least twice a year.In 1956,US President Eisenhower created the test,and it has been a tradition in schools since 1966.There are five activities in the test:sit-ups(仰卧起坐),push-ups(俯卧撑),sit and reach,endurance run or walk and shuttle run(折返跑).Students who get scores at or above 85percent on all the activities can get a Presidential Physical Fitness Award.
The test encourages students to live a healthy and active life.Students taking the test are really testing their limits,according to the US National Association for Sport and Physical Education.
China has a similar test:the physical education(PE) test.Beginning at the age of 7,students in China are tested twice a year to check if they are healthy and strong.They also finish activities like the endurance run,sit-ups and the shuttle run.
However,unlike students in the US who get awards,Chinese students get points in PE tests.The highest score is 100.For junior school students,the PE test is more important because it is worth 30to 40points in the entrance exam for senior high school.In order to get a good score,most students begin to prepare for the test in their junior one year.

分析 这是一篇说明文.本篇文章主要是讲美国的健康测试和中国的体测.美国的健康测试项目有:俯卧撑,仰卧起坐,坐位体前屈,耐力跑,折返跑.在所有项目中,获得85分及以上的学生可以获得总统的身体健康奖.而中国的体侧项目有:耐力跑,仰卧起坐,折返跑.体侧分数对于中考和高考的学生来说是很重要的,它占据30到40分.
解答 (1)D.细节理解题.根据第二段"Students who get scores at or above 85percent on all the activities can get a Presidential Physical Fitness Award."可知,在所有活动中获得85分及以上的学生可以获得总统的身体健康奖.故选D.
(2)A.细节理解题.根据第一段"Students are tested at least twice a year.学生一年至少被测试两次"及第四段"students in China are tested twice a year to check if they are healthy and strong.中国学生一年被测试两次来检测他们是否健康强壮".根据第五段"However,unlike students in the US who get awards,Chinese students get points in PE tests."可知,然而,不像美国学生得到奖品,中国学生在体育测试中得到分数.根据第二段"There are five activities in the test:sit-ups(仰卧起坐),push-ups(俯卧撑),sit and reach,endurance run or walk and shuttle run(折返跑).在测试中有五个项目:仰卧起坐,俯卧撑,坐位体前屈,耐力跑和折返跑."及第四段"They also finish activities like the endurance run,sit-ups and the shuttle run.他们也要完成像耐力跑,仰卧起坐和折返跑项目."由此可知,中国体侧与美国健康测试的相似处是每年测试两次.故选A.
