阅读理解 I had about 10 minutes to exercise before I had to pick up my two older daughters from school yesterday. It was a busier day than usual for me with a couple of meetings besides my regular work. Years ago, I would have put off my workout and would have left things for the next day. But since it was a busy day as well, I knew that I may not have all that much time either. So, I picked up my kettle-bell (哑铃) and went to town for 4 minutes. See, 4 minutes, if that"s all you"ve got, is enough to give your body a great fat-burning exercise. How did I get a killer workout in 4 minutes? I used a training workout discovered 10 years ago by a Japanese Sports Scientist called a TABATA. It includes 20-second periods of warm-up, followed by 10-second periods of rest and 4-minute straight exercise. How is a 4-minute exercise able to burn fat? It all depends on the quality of work you do. Not on the quantity. Here"s how I did it yesterday. You should never forget your warm-up. A TABATA workout is 20 seconds of 2-arm Kettle-bell swings, 10 seconds rest, 20 seconds push-ups, and 10 seconds rest. You should do those 4 rounds. That"s it. I was done in a total time of 8 minutes by the time and when I got to school my heart was still pumping pretty hard. A healthy body is needed for studying and working, and efficiency (效率) is the key to building a great body in the least amount (数量) of time possible and you can"t get more efficient than a 4-minute workout. 1. We can learn from the passage that the author ______. A. is busy with his work B. has a weak body now C. has two children in all D. is a manager in a film 2. The underlined phrase "went to town" in Paragraph 2 means "_______". A. put off doing something B. went to a very small city C. did something with interest D. hated to do something 3. What is the most important thing in taking exercise according to the author? A. The goal B. the quality C. The quantity D. The method | ||||||||||

My husband and I insisted that our children were old enough to clean their rooms and make their beds. But they thought 1 . My complaints, even self-justified shouting, were always landing on 2 ears. Very often a whole hour"s scolding would end with their 3 into tears, I felt very frustrated (沮 丧的).I realized I needed to 4 my method of "mothering". One day when they were at school, I spent some time 5 their rooms. On their desks, in plain 6 , I left the cards: "Dear Bill (the other card was 7 to Sarah), your room was messy this morning and I"m sure you like it clean. Love, the Room Fairy." 8 arriving back, the children were 9 excited to receive the little note from the Room Fairy. The next day, their rooms were fairly tidy. Sure enough, there was another note from the Room Fairy 10 for them, thanking them for their nice "gift" of a clean room and 11 asking them to play a certain violin 12 . Each day, thank--you notes would be written differently to keep the ideas 13 . Sometimes the Room Fairy would propose a little 14 : "If you can finish your homework and 15 your lessons before dinner, I" d like to watch a particular television program with you tonight." Sometimes some colored markers or other little items would be left in 16 of well done jobs the day 17 . 18 I can"t remember how long "the Room Fairy" continued leaving her love notes. When they were age appropriate, we used various versions of Post-Its(贴条). The bathroom mirror became the 19 centre of our home. Appointments, notices about visiting relatives, lesson schedules, and changes in plans could be posted. We all benefited from and 20 the idea of sharing reminders and daily details of life through notes. I believe the true advantage of the Room Fairy notes survives in our frequent and enjoyable communication. | ||||||||||
