APhysical exercise is very important for a healthy lifestyle. If you are traveling often, it would be good to have in mind the gyms with most locations nationwide in 2018. Here you will find the answers.Blink FitnessThis company was founded in 2016, so no wonder they have not yet reached 100 gyms. But with the figure of 70+, they are actually among those gyms with most locations nationwide in 2018. They are spreading still, with new venues(场地) opened in Los Angeles recently. They are becoming more popular with the attitude Mood Above Muscle which attracts and encourages more people to join their programs.EquinoxEquinox is a luxury(奢华的) fitness company founded in 1991 in NYC. It has also announced expansion by the opening of hotels in New York and Los Angeles by 2019. Of course with the character “luxurious” goes the high pr ice as well. If you are ready to give a nice sum for your training, that would be money well spent.Lifetime FitnessLifetime Fitness is one of the most popular gyms in the world.

It was after I saw an advertisement in a newspaper looking for people to join a team to ski 350 miles to the North Pole. Back in 1996, there had never been a woman from the UK who had accomplished this challenge. I wondered what it would be like to survive in temperatures cold enough to freeze your flesh in seconds, so I sent off for the application form.The application form full of pictures of male explores arrived. The words “Are you man enough for the ultimate(极限的) challenge?” made me angry and even more det ermined to get on the team.Over 500 individuals applied for a place in the team, and the selection process included physical and psychological tests designed to pick the best group. In one test, there was a huge rope ladder we had to climb, and I froze at the top because I have a fear of heights.I thought my hopes were fading as most other applicants sailed past, leaving me behind. But two others helped me over, and later I found out that the organizers were not looking for amazing individuals, but great team players, and this moment had shown them who would take care of others in the team.I had revealed(显示)my weakness, and in a place like the Arctic, you have to be yourself, as there is nowhere to hide. These personalities of asking for help and showing weakness are necessary for women to master.I realized that by being myself, I could succeed. I was selected for the team. I realized that I could achieve more than I ever imagined — more importantly, by sharing my story with others, I could inspire them to take a step into the new world and reveal more of their abilities.24. How did the author react on seeing the advertisement?A. She got cross.B. She was determined.C. She got frightened.D. She was hesitating.25. What did the organizers’ view as the m ost important in the selection of new hands?A. Personal quality.B. Individual-ability.C. Spirit of teamwork.D. Courage to challenge.26. What does the author think of women’s showing weakness?A. Beneficial.B. Shameful.C. Merciful.D. Disturbing.27. What’s the intention of the author in writing this passage?A. To inspire us to prepare for our future goal.B. To advise women how to turn to others.C. To make suggestions to her team members.D. To encourage people to explore the unknown.CEverybody loves a fat pay rise. Yet pleasure at your own can vanish if you learn that a colleague has been given a bigger one. Indeed, if he has a reputation for slacking(懒惰), you might even be outraged. Such behaviour is regarded as “all too human”, with the underlying assumption that other animals would not be capable of this finely developed sense of grievance(不满,不平). But a study by Sarah Brosnan and Frans de Waal of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, which has just been published in Nature, suggests that it is all too monkey, as well.The researchers studied the behaviour of female brown capuchin monkeys. They look cute. They are good-natured, co-operative creatures, and they share their food readily. Above all, like their female human counterparts, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of “goods and services” than males.Such characteristics make them perfect candidates for Dr. Brosnan’s and Dr. de Waal’s study. The researchers spent two years teaching their monkeys to exchange tokens for food. Normally, the monkeys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for slices of cucumber. However, when two monkeys were placed in separate but adjoining chambers, so that each could observe what the other was getting in return for its rock, their behaviour became markedly different.In the world of capuchins, grapes are luxury goods (and much preferable to cucumbers). So when one monkey was handed a grape in exchange for her token, the second was reluctant to hand hers over for a mere piece of cucumber. And if one received a grape without having to provide her token in exchange at all, the other either tossed her own token at the researcher or out of the chamber, or refused to accept the slice of cucumber. Indeed, the mere presence of a grape in the other chamber(without an actual monkey to eat it) was enough to induce resentment(愤恨) in a female capuchin.The researchers suggest that capuchin monkeys, like humans, are guided by social3emotions. In the wild, they are a co-operative, group-living species. Such cooperation is likely to be stable only when each animal feels it is not being cheated. Feelings of righteous indignation(愤慨), it seems, are not the preserve of people alone. Refusing a lesser reward completely makes these feelings abundantly clear to other members of the group. However, whether such a sense of fairness evolved independently in capuchins and humans, or whether it stems from the common ancestor that the species had 35 million years ago, is, as yet, an unanswered question.28. In the opening paragraph, the author introduces his topic by ________.A. making a comparisonB. justifying an assumptionC. making a conclusionD. explaining a phenomenon29. The statement “it is all too monkey” (Last line, Paragraph 1) implies that ________.A. resenti ng unfairness is also monkeys’ natureB. monkeys are also outraged by slack rivalsC. monkeys, like humans, tend to be jealous of each otherD. no animals other than monkeys can develop such emotions30. Dr. Brosnan and Dr. de Waal have eventually found in their study that the monkeys ________.A. prefer grapes to cucumbersB. will not be co-operative if feeling cheatedC. can be taught to exchange thingsD. are unhappy when separated from others31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Monkeys can be trained to develop social emotions.B. Cooperation among monkeys remains stable only in the wild.C. Animals usually show their feelings openly as humans do.D. Human indignation evolved from an uncertain source.DThere is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think. On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture. It becomes a part of who we are. Many associate food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to our families, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort food we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture. It also operates as an expression of culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness.Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional dishes. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. Therefore, they have to make small changes about the original dishes to cater to a wider range of customers. Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.We should embrace our heritage(传统)through our culture’s food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.32. What’s the function of food mentioned in the article?A. To help motivate homesickness.B. To show national identity.C. To reflect a country’s history.D. To show a communi ty’s superiority.33. What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The specific traditional food.B. The national culture.C. A traditional expression of food.D. The old-fashioned taste.34. Why do some immigrants have to change the original dishes in their restaurant?A. To attach cultural importance to their dishes.B. To announce the beginning of their life on foreign soil.C. To make the dishes popular among customers.D. To present their own food culture in a new way.35. What’s the author’s attitude towards different food cultures?A. Negative.B. Balanced.C. Unfair.D. Unchangeable.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
