一、阅读理解
Passage A
Many people believe that to stay healthy,they need to engage in intense,lengthy workouts at a gym.
However,according to a growing body of research,a more flexible and achievable approach might be the
key:incorporating short bursts of physical activity into your daily routine.This concept,often referred to
as "exercise snacks,"advocates for brief,high-intensity movements that last anywhere from 20 seconds to
2 minutes,performed several times throughout the day.
The science behind exercise snacks is compelling.A study from the University of Texas found that three
20-second bursts of vigorous stair climbing,performed three times a week over eight weeks,led to a
significant improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness.Another study,published in the journal Applied
Physiology,Nutrition,and Metabolism,revealed that brief,intense stair climbing could improve the
body's ability to process sugar,a key factor in preventing obesity and other metabolic diseases.
One of the main attractions of exercise snacks is their convenience.Unlike a traditional 45-minute
workout,which requires time to travel to a gym,change clothes,and shower,exercise snacks can be done
anywhere,anytime.You can do a set ofjumping jacks during a commercial break,take the stairs instead
of the elevator,or jog in place while waiting for your coffee to brew.For adults with a challenging
schedule,this flexibility makes it far easier to maintain an active lifestyle.
However,experts caution that exercise snacks should not replace a well-rounded fitness routine.While
they are excellent for improving cardiovascular health and overall energy levels,they may not be
sufficient for building significant muscle mass or enhancing flexibility."Think of exercise snacks as a
powerful tool in your health kit,not the whole toolkit,"says DI.Emily Carter,a sports physiologist.
They are a great starting point for those who are very inactive,but for long-term health,they should be
combined with other forms of exercise like strength training and stretching."
In conclusion,the idea of exercise snacks offers a refreshing,practical approach for those who find it
challenging to fit traditional workouts into their lives.By making activity a natural and frequent part of
your day,you can slowly but surely improve your health without the need for a complete lifestyle
overhaul.

Passage B
The concept of"inner peace"has become a popular topic in the age of constant connectivity and
information overload.While often associated with meditation and spirituality,recent scientific research
has begun to reveal a more concrete and measurable impact of inner peace on our physical health.This
state of calm,characterized by low levels of stress and anxiety,is now understood to have a direct link to
how our bodies function,particularly in relation to chronic diseases.
A key factor in this connection is inflammation.When we are under constant stress,our bodies produce
higher levels of cortisol,a hormone that,over a long period,can trigger chronic inflammation.This type
of low-grade inflammation is a silent contributor to a host of problems,including obesity,heart disease,
and even some forms of cancer.Conversely,individuals who successfully cultivate inner peace often
exhibit lower cortisol levels and,as a result,reduced inflammation throughout the body.
A study conducted by Carnegie Mellon University provided further evidence.Researchers found that
people who reported higher levels of psychological well-being-a state closely tied to inner peace-had a
lower risk of catching a cold when exposed to the virus.This suggests that a calm mind can strengthen
the immune system.The study's lead author,Dr.Sheldon Cohen,noted,"People who are happy and calm
are less likely to get sick.The positive impact of a peaceful mind on the immune system is significant."
However,achieving this state is not about ignoring life's challenges.Instead,it involves developing a
flexible mindset and leamning to concentrate on the present moment rather than worying about the past or
future.Simple practices,such as taking deep breaths when feeling angry,or spending a few minutes each
day focusing on the senses (what you see,hear,and feel),can help train the brain to access a calmer state.
This "mental training"is similar to physical training,the more you practice,the stronger your ability to
find inner peace becomes.
In an era where the pressure to be constantly productive is intense,the idea of slowing down to find calm
can seem counterintuitive.Yet,as the evidence mounts,it is becoming clear that nurturing our inner peace
is not a luxury but a necessity for long-term physical and mental health.It is a powerful,low-cost tool that
can help cure the modern epidemic of stress-related illness.
()1.What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?
A.To define the term "inner peace"in a religious way
B.To introduce the scientific link between inner peace and health.
C.To argue that traditional views on health are outdated.
D.To discuss the negative impact of constant connectivity
()2.According to the passage,how does chronic stress affect the body?
A.It directly cures inflammation
B.It helps the immune system fight viruses.
C.It can lead to chronic inflammation and diseases like obesity.
D.It lowers the production of cortisol.
()3.The study from Camegie Mellon University suggests that inner peace can
A.cure a cold immediately
B.strengthen the immune system
C.increase the risk of catching a virus
D.replace the need for medical treatment
()4.What does the phrase "mental training"(Paragraph 4)refer to?
A.Taking challenging physical exercise.
B.Ignoring the problems in your life.
C.Practicing techniques to achieve a calmer state.
D.Concentrating on past mistakes to learn from them.
()5.What can be inferred from the final paragraph?
A.Finding inner peace is only important for the elderly.
B.The pressure to be productive makes it easy to find calm
C.Inner peace is a powerful but expensive health tool.
D.Nurturing inner peace is crucial for health in modemn society.

Soccer is a sport that demands not only physical strength but also quick thinking and incredible focus.I
remember my first year on the high school team.I was fast and had a powerful kick,but my mind often
wandered.I was challenged by the speed of the game.Coach Miller,a strict but fair man,understood this

That advice was a game-changer.I began to practice this routine during practice and games.At first,it

something began to change.I started to see the field more clearly.The movements ofmy teammates and

三、阅读短文回答问题
Read the following passage and answer the questions in complete sentences
In the modem workplace,the concept of a"healthy work environment"is becoming increasingly
important.It is no longer enough to simply ensure physical safety,companies are now realizing the
massive impact that mental and emotional well-being has on productivity and employee retention.A study
conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO)revealed that depression and anxiety disorders cost
the global economy an estimated $1 trillion per year in lost productivity.This has forced businesses to
look for more flexible and effective solutions.
One of the most promising strategies is the promotion of"active workstations."Instead of sitting for eight
hours straight,which research links to obesity and other health issues,employees are encouraged to use
standing desks,treadmill desks,or even cycle while working.A pilot program at a tech company in
California found that employees who used standing desks reported a 45%reduction in upper back and
neck pain.Further analysis showed that their focus and energy levels also improved throughout the
afternoon compared to their seated counterparts.
However,the change is not just about the physical fumiture.A truly healthy workspace also fosters a
culture that values mental health.This includes offering flexible schedules to allow employees time for
exercise or family,providing access to counseling services,and training managers to recognize signs of
burnout.As one HR director noted,Physical activity is a great tool,but it cannot cure a toxic workplace
culture.The inner feeling of being valued and supported is what truly drives employee health and
happiness."
Despite the clear benefits,the shift towards a fully active and health-conscious office is challenging.It
requires a significant investment in new equipment and a fundamental change in company culture.Many
smaller businesses find it difficult to conduct such a reform.Yet,the evidence for its positive impact is
mounting.For the modern company,ignoring employee health is no longer an option.The future of work
seems undoubtedly linked to a more active,flexible,and mentally supportive approach.
1.According to the passage,what is the main reason companies are focusing on employee well-being?
2.What did the pilot program in Califomnia find about standing desks?
3.According to the HR director,what is necessary for a truly healthy workplace?
4.What is one of the main challenges for smaller businesses that want to improve workplace health?
5.What is the main message of the passage?

范文:
Dear Tom,
I was sorry to hear about your stress and the weight gain.It sounds like a really challenging situation,and
I fully understand how you feel.
I strongly believe that exercise is a great cure for this.Firstly,you don't need to do a long workout
immediately.Start with "exercise snacks"-just 10 to 15 minutes ofjogging or cycling a day.It's a
flexible way to begin without feeling overwhelmed.Secondly,choose an activity you actually enjoy,like
playing badminton or swimming.
Don't wony about doing too much too soon.Just be active regularly.Exercise will not only help control
your weight but also has a positive impact on your mood by reducing anxiety.
I hope my advice helps.Keep going!
Yours,
Li Hua
