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 lived, on average（平均）, three years longer than the non-runners.Running may be good exercise, but it can be difficult on the body. Here are commonly shared ideas among fitness experts（健身专家）to lower the risk of injury（受伤）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.（）29. The writer wants to tell us in the first paragraph ____________.A. good health comes from runningB. running is the best exerciseC. health problem can be solved by good exerciseD. not all exercise is equally（同样的）good（）30. In the second paragraph, we know ____________.A. a good habit of running may help you live longerB. the number of non-runners was getting smallerC. three quarters of 55,000 adults were new to runningD. the hope to live three years longer drives people to exercise（）31. The purpose of taking notes is to ____________.A. remind you of where to have new shoesB. help you find the way of running that fits youC. take a rest between running daysD. help you do some research on exercise（）32. The passage is written to ____________.A. provide information for the researchers to work betterB. warn the non-runners of the dangers in runningC. help runners to exercise in a scientific wayD. encourage as many people as possible to join in runningC“Why does the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side!”That’s an old joke in the west, but it came to my mind againwhen I saw people crossing the road at the intersection of ShaanxiRoad and Huaihai Road in Shanghai.When the traffic light was red, a group of people were waitingfor the light to change. Suddenly one man began rushing to theother side of the road. Soon others followed him at the crossing andmore people did the same. Just l ike chickens, they didn’t mind the honking horns(喇叭声) and kept crossing the road in a mess.Every year several thousand people are either killed or hurt on the roads in Shanghai. And at least one third of them were jaywalking(乱穿马路). Jaywalking is very common in Shanghai. It seems that jaywalkers are not afraid of the danger to themselves.Traffic laws are to keep people safe. So we should obey them, and have good road-crossing habits. When someone starts to jaywalk, we should stop him, and never follow him. That way we can avoid the traffic accidents.（）33. The underlined word “intersection” here probably means “”.A. roadB. bridgeC. crossingD. traffic（）34. The writer saw people__________ in Shanghai that day.A. crossing the road in a messB. waiting for the green light patientlyC. crossing the road with chickensD. hurting each other in the street（）35. How does the writer like what he saw in Shanghai that day?A. He thinks it’s OK.B. He thinks it’s wrong.C. He has no idea of it.D. He doesn’t mention(提及) it.DTo write a great news story, you have to make sure it is correct, relevant (相关的) and fresh.For a start, all the information in a story must be correct. Not only the spelling and grammar, but also the facts.Any mistakes that show up in a story can get a newspaper into big trouble.For example, if a newspaper said that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space, it would be wrong. He wasn’t the first. The newspaper would probably lose lots of readers because of that mistake.A news story does not only have to be correct, but it must also be relevant to its readers. People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them. That’s why you care more about what happens at your school than at schools in America. It’s also why newspapers in Beijing don’t talk much about news in Shanghai or Hong Kong.Make sure it’s fresh.Finally, news must always be fresh. When you pick up your evening newspaper, you want to read about news that happened th at day. You don’t want to read about news from last week!So, now you know what makes a good news story. Have a look at our paper and see if it’s full of good news! You can try writing a news story for our paper like a real reporter.( )36. What will happen if there is a mistake in a newspaper?A. The reporter will probably have a lot of trouble.B. The newspaper would attract more readers.C. Many readers won’t buy the newspaper any more.D. The reporter won’t be able to write for the newspap er again.( )37. Why would it be wrong for a newspaper to say that Yang Liwei was the first man togo into space?A. Because the information was not fresh.B. Because the information was not correct.C. Because the information was not relevant.D. Because the information was not useful. ( )38. People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them, so newspapers in Beijing talk much about news in .A. Nanjing C. Beijing D. Hong Kong ( )39. Where does the writer work most probably?A. In a newspaper.B. In a shop.C. In a library.D. In a bank. ( )40. Which can be the BEST title for the passage?A. How to write an interesting storyB. Don’t make any mistakes in newsC.
