It shows that sitting for too long without exercise is really bad. Also, it tells us that more exercise and enough sleep can help us stay healthy. The study shows that sitting for a long time without exercise is worse than smoking and having heart problems. Scientists at the University of California have found that just 10 minutes’ exercise is enough to improve memory, such as 10 minutes of slow walking, yoga or Tai Chi. ●Do more exercise in school Doing exercise is good for health and study. Scientists say that children become more active when long hours of sitting are broken by exercise. And children should get an hour of exercise a day. But only half of it is done at school. ●Get enough sleep every night at home A piece of short news: A 14-year-old girl suddenly died while she was playing with her mobile phone. She had a lot of late nights because of using her mobile phone. Children aged 8 to 11 spend about 3.6 hours a day on TVs, mobile phones, or computers, 1.6 hours more than the limit (极限) of 2 hours. Many teachers say that smartphones make it difficult for students to listen carefully in lessons. It is mainly because of too little sleep and too much screen time. So children should spend more time on sleep and less time on screens. 34. According to the study, what is worse than smoking and having heart problems? _____________________________________________________________________ 35. How much exercise can improve memory according to scientists? _____________________________________________________________________ 36. How many hours of exercise should children get each day? _____________________________________________________________________ 37. What are the two main suggestions for students to stay healthy according to the study? _____________________________________________________________________ 38. Why do teachers think students should not spend too much time on the screens? What should students do to keep healthy and study well? _____________________________________________________________________ 【答案】34. Sitting for a long time without exercise. 35. Just 10 minutes’ exercise. 36. An hour. 37. Do more exercise in school and get enough sleep every night at home. 38. Because smartphones make it difficult for students to listen carefully in lessons. Students should spend more time on sleep and less time on screens. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了一项新研究的重要发现，包括久坐不运动的危害、运动和睡眠对健康的影响、对学生在校运动和在家睡眠的建议等。 【34题详解】 第二段提到“The study shows that sitting for a long time without exercise is worse than smoking and having heart problems.”，久坐不运动比吸烟和有心脏问题更糟糕。 【35题详解】 第三段提到“Scientists at the University of California have found that just 10 minutes’ exercise is enough to improve memory, such as 10 minutes of slow walking, yoga or Tai Chi.”，科学家发现仅仅10分钟的运动就足以改善记忆力，比如10分钟的慢走、瑜伽或太极。 【36题详解】 第四段提到“And children should get an hour of exercise a day.”，孩子们每天应该进行一小时的运动。 【37题详解】 第四段和第五段直接给出了让学生保持健康的两个主要建议：“Do more exercise in school”和“Get enough sleep every night at home”，即在学校多做运动，在家每晚保证充足的睡眠。 【38题详解】 最后一段提到“Many teachers say that smartphones make it difficult for students to listen carefully in lessons. It is mainly because of too little sleep and too much screen time. So children should spend more time on sleep and less time on screens.”，老师认为学生不应该花太多时间在屏幕上的原因是智能手机让学生上课难以认真听讲，主要是因为睡眠太少和看屏幕时间太长，所以学生应该多花时间睡觉，少花时间看屏幕来保持健康和学习好。 八、词语运用（本题共有两个语篇，A篇有五个小题，B篇有十个小题，每小题1分，共15分） (A) 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，在空白处填入适当的单词，使其通顺、连贯，并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。每空一词。 If an old man suddenly falls down in front of you, will you help him?

It shows that sitting for too long without exercise is really bad. Also, it tells us that more exercise and enough sleep can help us stay healthy. The study shows that sitting for a long time without exercise is worse than smoking and having heart problems. Scientists at the University of California have found that just 10 minutes’ exercise is enough to improve memory, such as 10 minutes of slow walking, yoga or Tai Chi. ●Do more exercise in school Doing exercise is good for health and study. Scientists say that children become more active when long hours of sitting are broken by exercise. And children should get an hour of exercise a day. But only half of it is done at school. ●Get enough sleep every night at home A piece of short news: A 14-year-old girl suddenly died while she was playing with her mobile phone. She had a lot of late nights because of using her mobile phone. Children aged 8 to 11 spend about 3.6 hours a day on TVs, mobile phones, or computers, 1.6 hours more than the limit (极限) of 2 hours. Many teachers say that smartphones make it difficult for students to listen carefully in lessons. It is mainly because of too little sleep and too much screen time. So children should spend more time on sleep and less time on screens. 34.
