1.Itissuggestedthatwomenshouldnotdoexercisesiftheyareoversixty.
答案:
N文章第一段第三句“Butanewstudyinwomenshowsthattheoldadageistrue--it'snevertoolatetostartwhenitcomestoexerciseprograms.”指出,一份新的女性调查显示,那句老话仍然实用:
对于锻炼从来都不晚。
意思就是说年纪大了,要想锻炼仍然是可以的,并不是建议老年女性不锻炼。
至于60岁以上女性不能锻炼这一说法更不正确,随后还提及被调查的女性有9500人之多,从她们66岁开始一直追踪调查到77岁,前后12年时间。
故此句判断为NO。
2.AccordingtoEdwardW.Gregg,it'snevertoolateforwomentostartexercise.
答案:
Y由文章第二段第一句“‘Therecertainlyseemstobesomethingheretosuggestthatwomencanstartexercisinglaterinlifeandstillreaptherewards,’leadresearcherandCDCepidemiologistEdwardW.Gregg,PhD,tellsWehMD.”可见女性即使在人生晚年才开始锻炼,仍然能够收到回报,因此晚一些开始锻炼是亡羊补牢为时未晚。
故此句判断为YES。
3.Allthe9,500womenwhoparticipatedintheresearchwouldhavelittleexercisesorwouldonlywalkjustamileadaybeforetheresearch.
答案:
N文章第三段中的“Researcherstracked9,500womenfor12years,startingwhentheywereatleastage66,Inthattime,theyfoundthatthosewhowentfromdoinglittleornothingtowalkingjustamileadayslashed(减少)theirriskofdeathfromallcausesandfromcancerbynearlyhalf.Theirriskofheartdiseasealsofellbymorethanathird.Infact,theyenjoyednearlyasmuchprotectionaswomenwhowerephysicallyactivebeforethestudybeganandremainedso.”讲到研究者们对9500名女性进行了12年的跟踪调查,结果发现对那些原来很少运动或者每天只走一英里的老年女性来说,增加运动后她们死亡的风险降低了一半,患心脏病的风险也降低了三分之一以上。
最后作者讲到,实际上和那些在研究开始之前就积极运动(physicallyactive)并在研究中一直保持运动(remainedso)的女性相比,后来才开始运动的女性得到的好处是一样多的。
由此可见,参与实验的老年女性中有很少运动的,也有一直积极运动的。
故此句判断为NO。
4.Anotherbenefitofgroupactivitiesisthatprofessionalguidanceinthegroupcanhelpcureobesity,diabetes,andarthritis.
答案:
NG由“Don'tgosolo.”部分第二段“Anotherbenefittogroupactivities:
Organizedexerciseprograms,likethoseavailableforlowornocostattheYMCAorlocalhospitals,oftenincludeprofessionalguidance--especiallyusefulforthosewithconditionssuchasobesity,diabetes,andarthritis.‘Thereareexercisetherapistsorphysiologistswhocanexpertlyguideyoutotheproperwaytoincreaseyourenduranceandintensitywithoutriskinginjuryorfatigue,’saysGregg.可以看出集体运动中常常会有专业指导,对肥胖、糖尿病以及关节炎患者会很有帮助,但并没有讲他们能够治疗这些症状。
故此句判断为NOTGIVEN。
5.Sinceexercisesmaycontrolconditionssuchasdiabetesandhighbloodpressure,someoldpeopledon'tneedto______iftheybeginanexerciseprogram.
答案:
continuetheirmedications“Getacheckupbeforeaworkout.”部分第一段中说明老年人在开始锻炼之前要去拜访医生,做个检查。
第二段作者讲到原因:
“Peoplecansometimescontrolconditionssuchasdiabetesandhighbloodpressurewithweightlossandexercisesotheydon'tneedtocontinuetheirmedications...”,即锻炼和减肥可以改善糖尿病和高血压的情况,病人的服药治疗也要进行相应的调整。
故此题正确答案为“continuetheirmedications”。
