26、stopping us losing weight.The survey conducted by the Weight-loss and Health Institute (WHI) asked over 1,000 Australians whether their exercise and weight-loss methods were effective. More than half of them admitted that while they exercised, they couldnt reach their weight-loss goals. The biggest

27、reason the WHI found that was leading to the failure in weight loss was the direct link between strenuous (剧烈的) exercise and the need to “reward” or “treat” yourself after your workout.Results also show that those who exercise only to lose weight will pay no attention to their diet, with 53 percent

28、admitting they actually eat more after exercising and 41 percent rewarding themselves with sugary treats after. Geoff Jowett, an Australian weight-loss coach, says this is one of the most common reasons why exercise is leading to weight gain. “What happens is they do exercise and then eat a piece of

29、 cake, which means they can become fit and fat at the same time,” he added.A study recently conducted by Arizona State University also found similar results when they studied the effects of strenuous exercise on overweight women. The researchers asked 81 women who always sat for a long time in their

30、 work to attend a 12-week exercise program. They were also asked not to change their diet. The end result found that while they were fitter after twelve weeks, they also were fatter. There was no noticeable weight loss among the group and almost 70 percent of the women had piled on some fat during t

31、he program.Jowett says the important thing we should notice is that fitness and weight loss are two ball games. He believes its a 80/20 ratio with 80 percent being about what we eat and 20 percent exercise.So what can be regarded as strenuous exercise? “A walk is good because you can still talk, but

32、 if youre doing exercise like running, cycling and swimming, it wont be good for weight loss,” Jowett added.Jowett also notes that the exercise on the TV show The Biggest Loser is not suitable for people who are obviously overweight because it may cause injury, and workouts like running are too stre

33、nuous for the body and lead to hunger which results in sugar need and weight gain.The solution Jowett believes is to separate fitness and weight loss. Deal with the weight problem first by eating healthily and then take 10,000 steps a day.As for whether exercise is necessary at all, Jowett says if i

34、ts to drop kilos, forget about it.39. The underlined phrase “piled on” in Para.4. means “_”.A.usedB. givenC. lostD. gained40. Which of the following exercise is suitable for overweight people?A. Running.B. Cycling.C. Walking.D. Swimming.41. What can we infer from the passage?A. The exercise on The B

35、iggest Loser is strenuous.B. All people tend to eat sugary snacks after working out.C. Taking strenuous exercise is harmful to your health.D. Exercise plays a more important role in weight loss than diet.42. What is the best title for the passage?A. Lose weight to keep fit.B. How to achieve weight l

36、oss.C. Exercise may cause weight gain.D. How to adopt a healthy lifestyle.CEveryone should try to join an organization on campus, but the question is whether to join a club or a sorority/fraternity. Many people think that they are not the type of person who would join a sorority or fraternity. In my

37、 point of view, I think that the best choice is to simply check out all of the offered organizations on campus to see which one best fits your interest.Clubs offer different kinds of choices from social club, to ethnic clubs, to dance teams, and much more. Though clubs do not work as sororities and

38、fraternities do, clubs do offer many other fun and satisfying happy events and activities.As for sororities and fraternities, there are different types that you might want to take note of. Sororities are for girls only while fraternities are for guys only. However, there are some fraternities for bo

39、th boys and girls, which specialize in business, medicine, law, community service and the like. The rest of the sororities and fraternities that do not have a specific title are usually social organizations. Though they are social, they do pay attention to other things as well. Another important thi

40、ng to take note of is that some of these organizations are Asian-interest organizations while others do not include students from Asian countries.Something else to keep in mind is that anyone can join a club. All you need to do is sign up at their table or show up at one of their meetings. However,

41、it is not so easy to become a member of a sorority or fraternity. Sororities and fraternities require you to take part during their rush week(s) and “rush” for them, which means you need to devote yourself to their events and learn more about the organization. You have to go through different tests

42、before you can become a real member of the organization. Each sorority or fraternity has different ways of accepting their new members.Joining an organization on campus may seem a bit stressful and confusing. The best thing to do is just relax, go out and explore your choices. Be open-minded and try

43、 something new. It might mean the difference between having a common college experience and having some of the best years of your life!43.Which of the following is TRUE according to the author?A. Asian students arent allowed to join organizations.B. Students should do research on an organization bef

44、ore joining it.C. Clubs are not very suitable for students to join.D. Every sorority or fraternity has a specific title.44. According to Para.3, sororities are mainly meant for _.A. boys in the collegeB. both boys and girls in the collegeC. girls in the collegeD. students from Asian countries45. If

45、a college student wants to join a fraternity, he/she needs to _.A. sign up at their tableB. try out for and be devoted to the organizationC. rush to show up at one of their meetingsD. achieve high grades in the college46. Which of the following can best tell the relationship between the paragraphs?A

46、. -B. -C. -D. -DDear Girls, Youre so young right now, but I hope this letter will be helpful to you one day when youre older. There is so much I wish I could ask my mother about although now I am a grown woman. There is so much we never got to talk about. Im planning on standing by forever, but even

47、 so, I think these letters will be useful in some way. Who knows how things will change down the road, and at least youll have your 34-year-old mothers thoughts written down on paper.Anyway, I want this letter to be about beauty and my relationship with it. I feel it is my responsibility, as a mothe

48、r of two little girls, to lead you down a path that is relatively healthy when it comes to beauty and self-image. In a lot of womens eyes, Ive probably already failed in this aspect due to a lot of pink Barbie dolls in Veras room right now.But I will say this about Barbie dolls: I played with Barbie

49、 dolls for many years when I was growing up and here I have a healthy body and a positive image. I have a Masters degree, a successful career and a published book. If Barbie dolls were really so damaging to my femininity (女人气质) and self-image, I highly doubt I could list all of these achievements.It

50、s hard for women to maintain a healthy self-image. Its hard not to worry about our weight and not to wish we could afford more stylish clothes. Its hard not to want someone elses hair or eyelashes.I have girlfriends around whom I have to make myself ready to be seen, because even though I love them,

51、 just being around them makes me self-conscious(忸怩的). I look at old pictures of my mother and wonder why Ive never been able to be as skinny as she was. And then I have friends who are thinner than their mothers ever were. We women go round and round in circles, holding hands and trying to be one an

52、other sometimes.Men like to think we dress and style ourselves for them, but why would we when they hardly notice? Ive never tried so hard to look good when I know Im about to meet up with a stylish girlfriend. Its she who will notice my slim waist or the little bracelet on my arm.And I have no doub

53、t that two of you, Veronica and Juliette, will endlessly compare yourselves to each other. You will wonder why one of you has longer legs or shinier hair or thicker eyelashes. I know this, not because I know sisters, but because I know women. The thing Ill tell you, or the thing to remember, is this

54、: not even the prettiest of us feel settled. The girl you think looks the most perfect in all the world is probably the girls who wants to change herself more than anyone else.Dont let that message carry any weight within yourselves. You are not worthless. You are so full of love and light and you s

55、hould let it shine through your every second. If someone pushes you down for standing tall, then just push yourself back up and stand even taller, and know that the reason why they pushed you down in the first place is just that theyre scared. I want to tell you that I have never in my life felt mor

56、e beautiful than when I have stood my tallest. Stand tall. Love, Mom 47. What does the mother think about Barbie dolls?A. They didnt have a bad effect on her success.B. They caused damage to her female image.C. They enabled her to have a successful life.D. They prevented her career development.48. A

57、ccording to the passage, what might make Mom self-conscious?A. The failure in maintaining a healthy self-imagine.B. The envy for her female friends.C. The fondness for female groups.D. The habit of making comparisons.49. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6 mean?A. Men tend to be self-ce

64、 conversation that is dangerous. Nothing can make sure that theyll be kept away from 100% of the risks on the Internet.
