题目内容
1.How many hours do you spend sitting in a chair every day?Eight hours in the office and three hours in front of the TV after work is the normal condition for many people.You probably don't need an expert to tell you that sitting too much is not good for your health,but the following fact can tell you more.
A study showed the health of 123,000 Americans between 1992and 2006. Thedeath rate
(比率)for men who spentsix hours or more per day sitting was about 20 percent higherthan formen who sat for three hours or less.The death rate for women who sat for more than six hours a day was about 40percent higher ①.
In other words,②.
So what can we do about it?Health experts suggest we spend more hours standing instead of sitting.The BBC and the University of Chester in the UK did a simple experiment with a small group of 10volunteers who usually spent most of the day sitting.They were asked to stand for at least three hours a day.The researchers took records on days when the volunteers stood,and when they sat around.As a result,there were some great differences,the BBC reported on Oct 16.
The researchers believe that even small movements,like standing while talking on the phone,going over to talk to a workmate rather than sending an e-mail,or simply taking the stairs instead of lift,will help.

62.In the passage,what do the“great differences“refer to in English?While standing for three hours a day,the volunteers are in better health.
63.If possible,will you stand or sit while calling according to the passage?Stand while calling.
64.请将划线的句子翻译成汉语.每天有6个小时或更长时间坐着的男性,其死亡率比每天只有3个小时或更少时间坐着的男性高出20%.
65.Choose a proper title to the passage.D
A.You can Never Sit B.Always Stand

分析 本文叙述了根据调查研究发现每天坐得时间太长了对身体没有好处,每天有6个小时或更长时间坐着的男性,其死亡率比每天只有3个小时或更少时间坐着的男性高出20%.短文还给出了志愿者的实验结果也得到了证实---站着要比坐着好.
解答 61.推理判断题.C、B.①根据这里的比较级higher可知后面应该用有比较连词的选项,故选C.
②根据第三段的研究数据可知坐的时间长的人等于慢性自杀,这里是得出结论.故选B.
62.推理判断题.While standing for three hours a day,the volunteers are in better health. 根据上文sitting too much is not good for your health 坐得时间长了对身体不好.这里是志愿者来做实验,来证明这个观点;还要注意和上文调查中的数据相呼应,三个小时是临界点,故用While standing for three hours a day,the volunteers are in better health.
63.细节理解题.Stand while calling.根据最后一段…like standing while talking on the phone,…will help.可知打电话的时候最好站着,故用Stand while calling.
64.英汉互译题.每天有6个小时或更长时间坐着的男性,其死亡率比每天只有3个小时或更少时间坐着的男性高出20%.注意句型sb spend+some time (in)+doing sth做某事花费某人多长时间;这个句子还要注意翻译出由who引导的两个定语从句,修饰其先行词men.中间有比较级的标志词than,说明是两者作比较,higher than…比…更高;故翻译为:每天有6个小时或更长时间坐着的男性,其死亡率比每天只有3个小时或更少时间坐着的男性高出20%.
65.D.标题归纳题.根据短文的内容可知根据研究发现站着要比坐着对身体有好处,也就是站着比坐着好,整篇文章都是在讨论站着多点好还是坐着多点好的问题.故选D,其他答案都太绝对或片面.
点评 本文是一篇科普文,介绍了久坐对身体的坏处.解答时一定要联系上下文,找到与题目有关的句子,得出答案.对于本题出现的翻译句子,要把句子里的主要句式和句型翻译到位,并要符合汉语的表达习惯.
