We all know that exercise is good for your health. But some kinds of exercise may be better than others. Running,for example,may help to protect against heart disease and other health problems. Running may also help you live longer.

Recently,researchers studied more than 55,000 adults. About a quarter of the adults have a good habit of running. The study found these runners were much healthier than non-runners. In fact,the runners live,on average (平均) ，three years longer than then on-runners.

Running may be good exercise,but it can be difficult on the body. Here are commonly shared ideas among fitness experts (健身專家) to lower the risk of injury (受傷) for people who are new to running.

Take it easy.

Do not run too much,too soon or too fast. Most people get running injuries when they push themselves too hard. The body needs time to get used to increases in distance (里程) or speed.

Get good running shoes.

There is no single best shoe for every runner. You should find the shoe that offers the best fit and support for your feet. More importantly,you should have a new pair of shoes every 500 to 800 kilometers.

Take good notes.

Take time after each run to write down notes about what you did and how you felt.

Look for things that happen again and again. For example,you may find that your knees hurt when you run sometimes. But perhaps you feel great when you have a rest between running days. These notes will help you make the best plan for running.

[例3]

Do animals have a culture? What do we mean by “culture”？Recently social scientists have begun to ask if culture is found just in humans,or if some animals have a culture,too. When we speak of culture,we mean a way of life that a group of people have in common. Culture is the forms of behavior (行為) that help people to live together. It is also the forms of behavior that make one group of people different from another group.

Human beings use tools,cooperate with one another,and communicate with languages. But these aspects (方面) of human behavior,or “culture,can also be found in the lives of certain a-nimals. Animals can make tools,for example. We used to think that the ability to use tools was the dividing line between human beings and other animals. Lately,however,we have found that this is not the case. Chimpanzees (黑猩猩) can not only use tools but actually make tools themselves. Animals can also share knowledge with each other and use their own language to com- j municate. So it may be important for us to know that the line dividing us from animals is not as clear as we used to think. (2012山西C篇)

()l. According to the article ,“culture” means .

   A. the languages we learn 

   B. the good habits we share with each other

   C. the forms of behavior we have in common

() 2. From the fact that chimpanzees can use and make tools,we know .

   A. animals may have a culture like our own

   B. animals can be as clever as human beings

   C. animals have the ability to help human beings

() 3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?

   A. Chimpanzees never help each other.

   B. Animals use their own language to communicate.

   C. People from different places have the same culture.

() 4. The traditional idea about dividing animals from human beings is that .

   A. human beings can use tools

   B. human beings can depend on each other

   C. human beings have the language to communicate

() 5. The main idea of the article is that .

   A. the animal culture is different from the human culture

   B. knowledge and communication are no longer signs of only human behavior

   C. the line dividing human culture from animal culture is not as dear as we might think

分析：1.選 推理判斷題。在第一段中關(guān)于culture作者用了下定義的方法解釋�！癢hen we speak of culture,we mean a way of life that a group of people have in common. Culture is the forms of behavior (行為) that help people to live together. It is also the forms of behavior that make one group of people different from another group."

2. 選 推理判斷題。在推理的時候要關(guān)注表示作者觀點的詞，尤其是表示轉(zhuǎn)折的連詞“ however,it is important that. 從原文中“Lately, however,we have found that this is not the case. So it may be important for us to know that the line dividing us from animals is not as clear as we used to think. ”可以推測出答案。

3. 選 細節(jié)理解題。從原文中最后一段“Animals can also share knowledge with each other and use their own language to communicate. ”可以得出答案。

4. 選 細節(jié)理解題。這里要注意詞的轉(zhuǎn)化。問題中用的是“the traditional idea”，在原文中是沒有原詞出現(xiàn)的，需要考生注意到“We used to think”同義詞的替換

5. 選 主旨大意題。在尋找主旨句時候考生要注意到表示作者論點的句子多出現(xiàn)在句首或句末，本文通過大猩猩的例子，論證出動物和人的區(qū)別也未必就是會使用工具，因為文章最后一句為主旨句。
