27、

If sticking with an exercise habit is a challenge for you, there may be an app for that. According to a University of Pennsylvania test, smartphone games help people become more active in taking exercise.

In the test, players were divided into three groups. Each group was asked to take part in one of three versions(版本)of an exercise game that recorded how many steps they took each week. The first version placed the players in competition with others. In the second version, the players worked as a group to get points. In the third, the players won points on their own, but they had to invite a friend or family member to be their supporter(支持者). This person received an e-mail each week reporting on the player’s score in the game in order to help cheer him or her on.

On the whole, all three groups had more steps than usual. And it is interesting to find that certain versions of the game worked better for people with different personalities(个性). For example, players who were more active and confident to go after their dreams would probably collect more steps by playing the competitive (the first) version. Compared with these active players, the shy or quiet players did well in all three versions, whether it was competitive, collaborative or supportive. However. those who did not pay much attention to their health and safety were not helped by the game at all.

Not all of us can get help, but exercise games do work—and work especially well what you keep your personality in mind as you choose from so many apps.

【1】The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 1 refers to ________.

A．choosing a kind of sports

B．facing a hard problem

C．keeping a habit of exercise

D．plying a smartphone game

【2】According to the writer, exercise games may work best on those who ________.

A．enjoy competing for their dreams

B．work together with their supporters

C．care a lot about their health and safety

D．match the game with their personalities

【3】Why does the writer share the results of test in the passage?

A．To introduce an app about exercising habits.

B．To give advice on playing smartphone games.

C．To encourage people to choose proper exercise apps.

D．To make people think more about their personalities.
