26、 LONDON—Manchester is Britain’s fattest city, a survey for “Men’s Health” has found, beating Glasgow for the first time since the magazine started examining the issue three years ago.
Editor Pete Muir said the survey had looked at a variety of factors from gym membership to heart disease rates to find the fattest city. “Manchester has more fast food restaurants than anywhere else in the UK,” he told Reuters. “People are taking the easy choice—eating and then just sitting in front of the TV.”
Manchester’s problem is part of a wider trend. On Thursday, the Office of National Statistics (ONS) blamed a lack of exercise and poor diet for a fifth of adult Britons being obese (过度肥胖的). “Obesity is a major risky factor connected with heart disease, diabetes and premature death (糖尿病和早亡).” said an ONS survey. “None of the 108 young men in the survey reported eating five portions of fruit or vegetables on average each day.”
In Manchester, the head of the city’s public health programs said he did not believe that they were necessarily the fattest city, but that they did have problems and were aiming to address them. Social deprivation (贫困) was a major factor. “One of the myths is that the stressed-out rich businessman is the one who is overweight,” David Regan told Reuters. “In fact, it is the poor areas that have the most problems. We aim not to be the fattest but the fittest city but we have a long way to go.”
Second in the survey is Stoke-on-Trent, followed by Liverpool, Swansea and Lecicester. Glasgow is sixth.
【1】Manchester took the place of __________ and became Britain’s fattest city.
A.Liverpool B.London C.Stoke-on-Trent D.Glasgow
【2】Obesity may lead to the following EXCEPT __________.
A.Heart disease B.diabetes C.premature death D.a lack of exercise
【3】This article is most probably taken from __________.
A.a newspaper B.a science book C.a novel D.a biography
27、“Without music, life would be a mistake,” famous German philosopher(哲学家)Friendrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some US schools have cut music classes to control budgets(预算).
For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired over 1,000 teachers. Among them, 10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and history. That’s partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn’t tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus(关注)on subjects that are tested more often.
However, learning music is useful in many ways.
When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode(解码)them in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time.
Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music: Einstein played the violin, and German physicist Max Planck did well in playing the piano.
【1】Some schools in the US cut music classes, because ______.
A. they were too difficult to learn B. students in the US weren’t interested in music
C. the schools wanted to control budgets D. there weren’t enough music teachers in the US
【2】In Paragraph 2, what does the underlined word “them” refer to(指代)?
A. Fired teachers. B. Public schools. C. Parents in Chicago. D. Students in Chicago.
【3】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Playing the piano needs people to see music notes.
B. Playing the piano needs people to use fingers to make sounds.
C. Decoding music notes is needed while we are playing music.
D. Different abilities are needed to work together while we are playing music.
【4】How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned in this passage?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
【5】What’s the writer’s opinion according to this passage?
A. Music is as simple as it looks. B. Music classes should be cut in some schools.
C. Music is a big part of our lives. D. Music isn’t a very important life skill for us.
28、 A young man was going to spend his holiday in a mountain village. That night he 【1】 at a small hotel near the railway station. 【2】 going to bed, he went to the owner of the hotel and said, “Excuse me, sir.
