10、 about 15% of the people in the UK are members of gyms. But are they more likely to be fit?A study found that gym members were 14 times more active than people who didnt belong to any health club. Gym members did six hours more exercise a week, and this activity did make them fitter than non-gym mem

11、bers. They also spent less time sitting down every day than non-gym members. The results were the same for men and women.The study included 405 people between the ages of 30 and 64, and the main characteristics of those who were gym members were the same as those who were not. “But gym members did m

12、ore training than non-gym members,” said the lead author, Elizabeth Schroeder of the University of Illinois.While it might seem clear that gym members exercising more are healthier than non-members, Schroeder says this has not been directly shown before. However, the study is only designed to show a

13、 tie between gym membership and more exercise. It may be that active people like to join gyms. In the study, people who exercised as much as gym members were also in good health.You can get the same benefits wherever you exercise. This study shows a gym membership can make you do more exercise, but

14、other research shows that exercising outside has other help. Outdoor activities can make you feel happy about lifeespecially if you run through a forest.Outdoor exercise is also more enjoyable than going to the gym.

18、 clue. Take a look at your fingers. Would you believe me if I told you that the length of your fingers in relation to one another can predict your personality? I know that it sounds like one of those silly tests you see on Facebook, but I have to admit that it is exactly correct for me. Heres how it

19、 works. Look at your three middle fingers of your hand. Is your index finger (食指) longer than your ring finger（无名指）? Is your ring finger longer than your index finger? Or are the two of the same length? Find the situation that best matches your hand and see if what follows is an accurate description

20、 of your personality. Longer ring finger：The Sweet TalkerIf your ring finger is longer than your index finger, research shows that youre likely a charming type, and you can probably talk yourself out of any situation. Others often find this personality type attractive and will go to great lengths to

21、 help you. Youre more likely to take risks, and youre good at problemsolving. People in this category make great engineers, soldiers and crosswordpuzzle solvers. Longer index finger：The (Over) Confident OneIf your index finger is longer than your ring finger, chances are you are full of confidence p

22、ossibly even to the point of being overconfident and proud. You are not necessarily introverted（内向的）, but you do enjoy time to yourself, especially when youre trying to complete a project. You are a dream pursuer who can make things happen, but you may be shy when it comes to taking the first step i

23、n a relationship. You are also probably happy with what you have, but youre always wishing for more. Index and ring finger of t he same length：The PeacemakerIf your index finger and ring finger are roughly of the same length, you are likely to avoid conflict at all costs and seek to keep the peace i

24、n your relationships. You are wellorganized, faithful and sympathetic. But deep down under all of that caring and peaceloving, you also have a hottempered side that can appear unexpectedly when youre pushed too far. You will try your hardest to avoid a fight. How well do these descriptions match you

25、r personality? I was surprised at the accuracy in my case, but Im not going to tell you which one it was!24. Which of the following hand could be an engineers hand? 25. We can learn from the passage that the author_. A. is very charming and helpfulB. always tries hard to avoid a fightC. often takes

26、silly tests on FacebookD. thinks the descriptions suit him well26. What does the passage intend to tell us? A. How accurate the description of the test isB.

27、 Where can you probably find the text? A. A popular magazineB. An official reportC. A public advertisementD. A biology textbookCTea, one of the most common English drinks today, is a relative latecomer to British shores. Although the custom of drinking tea dates back to 3000 BC in China, it was not

29、ously, it was the London coffee houses that were responsible for introducing tea to England. One of the first coffee house merchants to offer tea was Thomas Garway.

30、 pounds per pound, praising its advantages as making the body active and energetic, and preserving perfect health until extreme old age.

31、the female manager of the Aerated Bread Company began the custom of serving food and drink to her customers, who were favored with tea. Soon everyone was asking for the same treatment. The concept of teashops spread throughout Britain like wildfire, not in the least because teashops provided a place

32、 where a woman could meet her friends and socialize without damage to her reputation.Another custom is afternoon tea, which is said to have originated with Anna, 7th Duchess of Bedford, who launched the idea in the early 1800s. Anna is said to have complained of having that sinking feeling in the la

33、te afternoon because of a very long break between lunch and dinner, which in fashionable circles might not be served until 8 oclock in the evening.
