For centuries, people in the sunny Mediterranean (地中海) would get up after long,

relaxing meals and take a walk, often to the town square to see neighbors and socialize.

Walking is so much a part of the lifestyle that it is seen as the most important part of the 试卷第3页，共10页 super-healthy Mediterranean diet.

Studies have found that it may be one of the reasons the Mediterranean diet can reduce

the risk for some diseases like diabetes,

high cholesterol, heart disease, stroke and some

cancers – all the while strengthening bones, improving brain health, preventing dementia (痴呆) and helping with healthy weight loss.

Now you can add another reason to take a post-meal walk – it may lower your blood

sugar. That trip doesn’t need to take up a huge amount of your time either: Walking as little as

two

to five minutes after a meal can do, according

to a 2022 study in

the journal Sports

Medicine.

Standing after a meal can help, too, but not as much as putting one foot in front of the

other, said study coauthor Aidan Buffey, a doctoral student in sport sciences department at the

University of Limerick in Ireland.

“Standing on and off throughout the day and after meals reduced blood sugar on average

by 9.51% compared to long hours of sitting. However, light-walking throughout the day saw

a greater reduction of blood sugar by an average of 17.01% compared to long hours of sitting,”

Buffey said.

“This suggests that breaking long hours of

sitting with standing and light-walking

throughout the day is good for blood sugar levels. Standing is good, but walking is better,” he

added.

6．What is the purpose of Paragraph 1?

A．To introduce a lifestyle. B．To warn the readers.

C．To lead in the topic. D．To prove an opinion.

7．What benefits can the Mediterranean diet bring to people EXCEPT ______?

A．Losing appropriate weight B．Making bones stronger
