30、itting down. If in addition we are careless about our diets, our bodies soon become flabby and our systems sluggish. There are some aspects of our unhealthy lives that we cannot avoid. I am thinking of such features of modern urban life as pollution, noise, rushed meals and stress. But keeping fit i

31、s a way to minimise the effects of these evils. The usual suggestion to a person who is looking for a way to keep fit is to take up some sport or other. While it is true that every weekend you will find people playing football and hockey in the local park, they are outnumbered a hundred to one by th

32、e people who are simply watching them.For those who do not particularly enjoy competitive sportsand it is especially difficult to do so if you are no good at themthere are such solitary activities as cycling, walking, jogging and swimming. What often happens though is that you do them in such a leis

33、urely way, so slowly, that it is doubtful if you are doing yourself much good, apart from the fact that you have at least managed to get up out of your armchair.Even after you have found a routine for keeping in shape, through sport or gymnastics or isometrics, you are still only half way to good he

34、alth, because, according to the experts, you must also master the art of complete mental and physical relaxation. It has to do with deep breathing, emptying your mind of all thoughts, meditation, and so on. Yoga, as practised in the West, is the most widely known and popular of the systems for achie

35、ving the necessary state of relaxation. It seems ironical, though, that as our lives have improved in a material sense we have found it increasingly necessary to go back to forms of activity-physical effort on the one hand and relaxation on the otherwhich were the natural way of life of our forefath

36、ers.（分数：10.00）(1).Pollution, noise and stress are examples of_. A. causes of unfitness B. bad features of living in towns C. the things we can completely do away with D. unavoidable things in towns（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).Most of the people who go to the park at the weekend are_. A. football players B.

37、football spectators C. keep-fit enthusiasts D. elderly people（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).We dont get much out of solitary sports because we_. A. dont do them very often B. dont do them vigorously enough C. find it hard to get out of our armchairs D. dont find them interesting（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).To be heal

38、thy we must_. A. keep fit and active B. keep fit and learn to relax C. be active and practise Yoga D. have a sound mind（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).Our forefathers were healthy because_. A. their way of life involved both exercise and relaxation B. they were careful to get plenty of fresh air C. they spend

39、most of the time out of doors D. their environment was not polluted（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.八、BText 2/B(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Anyone who has a fat friend or who is, perhaps, himself more than ample, knows only too well how little provision our society makes for such people. Even the daily round provides numerous p

40、roblems and snags. There are few pieces of clothing that can be bought off the peg, seats in cinemas or theatres are so uncomfortable that few fat people attend them. Fortunately good performances are rare. Home furniture is also hopelessly inadequate. Then there are the problems of having a bath; t

41、he standard size of bathtub just does not allow a fat person to take up a horizontal position but demands him to stand or squat in it. In todays world, however, these are minor worries in a culture where slimness is in fashion and all things desirable come to the person with an attractively thin and

42、 delicate figure. Especially in women, this attribute is a must if they are to compete in the marriage market.In fact slimness is not necessarily either an ideal condition from a physiological point of view or a natural characteristic. But this is of little comfort to the fat man or woman living in

43、our present society obsessed by thinness. This fashion has been just another facet of the desire for conformity; we have charts showing correct weights for each height, and there are whole counters in many shops given over to the display of non-fattening foods. The fat person is doubly unfortunate i

44、n that he cannot hide his non- conformity, unlike so many of us who have perhaps more subtle forms of eccentricity. In those cases where fatness is the result of over-eating, it is, of course, a reaction to some form of inner conflict and a much less harmful one than, say, alcoholism, drug addiction

45、 or suicide. Where the over weight is due to some disorder of the body, the fat person is an all-round loser, for not only has he a physical illness to cope with but is mocked for having it by many people who should know better.Perhaps fashion will eventually change to allow an ample frame to become

46、 acceptable, but at present it seems that the pencil-slim models of the fashion salons are in safe jobs.（分数：10.00）(1).The author says that society A. tries hard to help people take off weight B. provides comfortable facilities for fat people C. doesnt recognize the needs of fat people D. makes ample

A. fatuess is out of fashion now B. slimness makes them competitive in finding a husband C. they cant take part in social activities D. they become fat more easily than men（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).It is of no comfort to the fat person that A. fatness is not always a physio
