  Passage Two

  Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook all by yourself? Have you been doing Internet shopping rather than going to the stores? What can't you be bothered to do? A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of adults are so idle they'd catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs. Just over 2,000 people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health, Britain's largest health charity. The results were startling. About one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken, they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up. More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus. Worryingly, of the 654 respondents with children, 64% said they were often too tired to play with them. This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese before they start school.

  Dr. Sarah Dauncey, medical director of Nuffield Health, said, "People need to get fitter, not just for their own sake, but for the sake of their families, friends and evidently their pets too."And Scotland's largest city, Glasgow, was shamed as the most inactive city in the UK, with 75% surveyed admitting they do not get enough exercise, followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton, both with 67%. The results pose serious challenges for the National Health Service, where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of pounds every year.

  19. What does the study in Britain focus on?

  20. What did some people in the survey say they would do if their remote control was broken?

  21. What is mentioned as a possible cause of British children's obesity?

  22. Which city is found out to be the laziest one?

  短文二

  你會吃冰箱裡現成的食物還是會自己做飯?你是不是經常網購而不去實體店?有什麼事情是你懶得做的?一項調查英國人到底有多懶的研究發現有50%的成年人上二樓選擇乘電梯而不用樓梯。該項調查是由來自英國最大的健康慈善機構——納菲爾德健康中心的獨立調查員在超過2000人的研究物件中進行的。調查結果令人震驚:六分之一的被調查者表示如果電視的遙控器壞掉了,他們會一直看一個頻道而不會起身;超過三分之一的人表示他們不會為了趕公交車跑上幾步;更讓人擔心的是,654位已為人父母的被調查者當中64%說他們常常因為太累而不和孩子一塊兒玩;這一調查結果似乎對為什麼會有六分之一英國孩子學前被歸類為肥胖兒童作出瞭解釋。

  納菲爾德健康中心的醫療主管薩拉·當西說,“人們需要讓自己健康起來,這不僅對他們自己好,對他們的家人、朋友、而且顯然對他們的寵物也是好事。”蘇格蘭最大的城市格拉斯哥很不光彩地被認定為英國“最不活躍”的城市。來自該城市的被調查者中有75%承認他們平時沒有做足夠的鍛鍊,緊隨其後的是貝靈頓和南安普頓,兩個城市缺乏鍛鍊者比例都是67%。這一調查結果對英國國民醫療保健體系帶來了巨大挑戰。過去四十年裡英國與肥胖相關疾病,如:心臟病、 癌症等,的發病率持續上升,英國國民醫療保健體系每年都要面臨數十億英鎊的醫療費用。

  參考答案:

  【小題19】C

  【小題20】B

  【小題21】A

  【小題22】B

  習題解析:

  【小題19】此題是針對調查主題提問。短文指出這項研究是針對how lazy British people are進行的。因此答案為選項C。

  【小題20】短文中提到英國對民眾進行調查時,有六分之一的人說if their remote control was broken, they would continue watching the same channel rather than getup,也就是說,他們什麼也不做,遙控器壞掉的時候電視停在哪個頻道,就會一直看下去。因此答案為選項B。

  【小題21】此題是針對兒童肥胖的原因提問。短文中提到64% said they were often too tired to play with them ...one in six children in the UK are classified as obese...由此可知,造成兒童肥胖的部分原因是父母沒有和孩子一起運動,因此答案為選項A。

  【小題22】短文中明確指出And Scotland's largest city, Glasgow, was shamed as the most inactive city in the UK...由此可知,調查顯示格拉斯哥是英國最為懶惰的城市,因此答案為選項B。

  Passage One

  We waste a third of our lives sleeping. When there doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day, you yearn to be like the former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, who was said to get by on just four hours' sleep a night. There is a quite a range in the number of hours we like to sleep. 80% of us manage between six and nine hours a night; the other 20% sleep more or less than this.

  There is plenty of evidence that a lack of sleep has an adverse effect. We do not simply adjust to it—in the short-term it reduces our concentration, and if it's extreme it makes us confused and distressed, and turns us into such poor drivers of being drunk. The long-term effects are even more worrying. Repeatedly getting less sleep than you need over the course of decades is associated with an increased risk of obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and heart diseases.

  But while it might not be possible to train yourself to sleep less, researchers working with the military have found that you can bank sleep beforehand if you plan well in advance. At the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research they had people go to bed a couple of hours earlier than usual every night for a week. When they were subsequently deprived of sleep they didn't suffer as much as the people who hadn't had the chance to bank sleep in advance.

  16. How much time do most people usually sleep every night?

  17. What could happen if people didn't get enough sleep for a long time?

  18. What do the researchers find about the military?

  短文一

  我們生命中三分之一的時間浪費在睡眠上。當白天的時間不夠用時,我們就會渴望自己能做到和英國前首相瑪格麗特·撒切爾一樣。據說瑪格麗特·撒切爾每天只睡四個小時。人們習慣的睡眠時長大不相同。我們當中80%的人每晚的睡眠時長能維持在6-8小時;其餘20%在這個區間還要上下浮動一些。

  很多證據顯示缺少睡眠會帶來副作用。睡眠縮短,我們不會就能簡單地適應。短期缺覺會削弱我們的注意力,而如果缺覺嚴重我們會變得迷糊甚至憂鬱,我們會變得像一個醉駕的司機。而長期缺覺後果會更嚴重。如果幾十年長期缺覺就有導致肥胖、糖尿病、高血壓和心臟病的風險。

  雖然通過訓練讓自己少睡覺這招行不通,一些軍隊中的調查者發現你可以提前補覺。在沃爾特里德陸軍研究所裡,實驗物件每天早睡幾個小時,這樣持續了一週。之後當他們的睡眠時間遭到壓榨時他們感受到的痛苦程度比那些沒有提前補覺的人要小。

  參考答案:

  【小題16】B

  【小題17】D

  【小題18】C

  習題解析:

  【小題16】該題問大多數人每晚睡多久。短文中提到80%的人每天睡六到九個小時;80%與問題中的most people相對應,因此答案為選項B。

  【小題17】該題對長時間缺乏睡眠的弊端提問。短文提到Repeatedly getting less sleep... is associated with an increased risk of obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and heart diseases,即“長時間睡眠缺乏會提高人們患肥胖、糖尿病、高血壓和心臟病的風險”,因此答案為選項D。

  【小題18】此題是針對研究人員的研究發現提問。短文中提到But..., researchers working with the military have found that you can bank sleep beforehand if you plan well in advance. 由此可知,如果提前計劃好,人們是可以將睡眠時間預存下來的,因此答案為選項C。
