You should make the correct choice. 35 It is clear that some people who participate in exercise training will develop injuries to their bones, muscles, and joints (关节 ). Despite unfounded reports in the mass media of extremely high injury rates

20、 among adult exercisers, there have been few good studies of exercise injuries in populations. One of the difficulties in performing such studies has been the need to identify both the number of cases and the number of people at risk for injury. In other words, it is difficult to know the number of

21、individuals injured and the total number of individuals exercising in the population. But these two figures are necessary in order to calculate (统计 ) true injury rates Normally, injury is defined as an accident that causes a person to stop exercising for al least one week. The best available studies

22、 on injury rates show that about 25 to 30 percent of adult runners become “injured“ (based on the above definition) over the course of a year. More serious injuries include those for which the injured person seeks medical care. If only they are considered, injury rates are much lower, perhaps in the

23、 range of 1 percent per year. Little is known about the causes of exercise injuries. One factor that has been linked to injury is the amount of exercise; for example, individuals who run more miles are likelier to be injured than those who run fewer miles. Factors such as age, sex, body type, and ex

24、perience have not been shown to be associated with risk of injury. It seems logical that structural abnormalities, sudden increases in training intensity, and types of equipment used are likely to be related to injury risk. However, data to support these opinions are not available. 36 What is the wr

25、iters attitude towards high injury rates among adult exercisers reported by the mass media? （ A） Positive. （ B） Indifferent. （ C） Negative. （ D） Reserved. 37 The true injury rates are obtained from _. （ A） the average number of injuries for each individual （ B） the amount of exercises for each indiv

26、idual （ C） the numbers of the injured and all individuals in training （ D） the numbers of people doing exercises and those stopped exercises for one week 38 Which of the following is NOT shown as the factor for causing exercise injuries? （ A） The amount of exercise. （ B） The age, sex and body type.

27、（ C） Structural abnormalities. （ D） Tile sudden increases in training intensity. 39 The factors that are in relation to exercises injuries _. （ A） have been obtained from many good studies （ B） have been confirmed by many data （ C） cannot confirm the risk of equipment types （ D） can be proved easily

28、 by the data through calculation 40 The passage is mainly about _. （ A） the high injury rates for those doing exercises （ B） the ways to avoid exercise injuries （ C） the evidences for the seriousness of exercise injuries （ D） the studies about injury rates and causes for injuries Task 2 Directions:

29、This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 40 Self-esteem is a private, individual matter. It goes up and down from day to day, or even from hour to hour. Thus, strengthening self-esteem is no easy task. But managers can help improve employe

30、es self-esteem in the following ways. Firstly, they must create a work environment that invites people to feel good about themselves and the work they do. They must not damage or lower the self-esteem of others. Managers should avoid something said or done to someone that wears away their feelings o

31、f self worth and satisfaction in performance. For example, it is unacceptable to greet a lazy employee with comments like “Late again! You win the prize for being the least reliable person here.“ Secondly, they must develop ways of communicating real respect and concern to the employees by actively

32、helping them improve their self-image and to feel better about themselves and their performance. For example, comments like, “I knew you could do an exceptional job on that new assignment-and you proved me right!“ If sincere, it will make an employees day. Lastly, give specific rather than general p

33、raise. Managers cant just go around saying to employees, “I really appreciate your work“ or “Thanks-your employees will think youre running for political office! Instead, be specific about what was done and the positive consequences of the action. For example, “That report you did for me on Thursday

34、 was just what I needed for my marketing meeting.“ And be sure to give the feedback to the person as soon after the event as possible. 41 We can learn from the first paragraph that self-esteem is _ （ A） kept as it is for a long time （ B） not fixed （ C） easy to improve （ D） the most important 42 Acco

35、rding to the passage, creating the work environment should consider （ A） the role of high efficiency at work （ B） employees self-value for their work （ C） employers satisfaction about their work （ D） the importance of the prize for the company 43 The comments given to employees should _ in order to

36、strengthen their self-respect. （ A） be frequent （ B） show respect and concern （ C） be much in amount （ D） be negative sometimes 44 Managers should give praise to employees （ A） in a general way （ B） for a special purpose （ C） in detail and in time （ D） on a special occasion 45 Which is the best titl

37、e for this passage? （ A） Importance of Self-esteem. （ B） The Role of Managers. （ C） The Praises for Employees. （ D） Improvement of Self-esteem. Task 3 Directions: The following is a passage.
