Directions :
Read the texts from a magazine article in which five people talked about the importance of doing ex-ercise. For questions 61 t0 65, match the name of each person, to one of the statements (A to G)given, be-low. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET1.
Eufracio Tolentino:
I did regular exercise when I was young, but by my 30s, I had a family and a busy job. I neg-
lected exercise for years. At 59, I had a stroke that resulted from lack of exercise. Now I visit a re-
covering center in the morning and spend my afternoons exercising. I encourage my friends a start
exercising. If they don"t, engaging too much in their work or family, they may also suffer from a
stroke.
Raymond Cbiew:
Think you" re healthy just because you" re within your ideal weight range for your height?
Wrong! Take me as an example. I figured I got enough exercise playing tennis once a week, for I
wasn"t overweight and didn"t smoke or drink. Then at 57, I woke up one early morning with chest
pains and tests revealed that I had serious heart trouble. I was shocked. Now I walk for an hour every
day and my doctor says that my heart is improving.
Dr Santos-Ringor:
Whether you hire a personal trainer, take exercise classes at the community center or rent exer-
cise videos, spending money on fitness is really money well spent, for health is wealth. But if you
can" t afford any of those, just get a comfortable pair of shoes: walk is free. I form. an exercise group
with friends; play catch with my kids or set aside Saturdays for long walks in the country.
Ruth Cheah:
You"re never too late or too out of shape to start exercising. I didn" t start to exercise on a regu-
lar basis until I was 59. Now, as old as 79, I take a daily 45-minute walk, go swimming twice a
week. These exercises free me from medicines, and I feel active and alert. People tell me that Ilook
younger than my age.
V. M. Chandran:
Many people start exercising because they want to lose weight, and when that doesn"t happen
immediately, they may give up. But the same volume of muscle weights more than that of fat, so a
large person who is fit could be healthier than a thin person who is not. When I saw my weight rise
past 90 kilos in my late 40s, I began taking walks for 45 minutes a day. Even though I still weigh o-
ver 90 kilos, I feel much stronger. I"m proud to have muscles, not fat.
Now match the name of each person, (61 t0 65) to the appropriate statement.
Note :there are two extra statements.
Statements
[A] Rich people know that health is wealth.
[B] Exercise does not necessarily mean a big-money game.
[C] Proper exercise is a must even if you are not overweight.
[D] One will pay dearly for ignoring exercise due to the heavy de-mands of life.
[E] Old age or poor health is never an excuse for being inactive.
[F] Exercise is good as long as it helps lose weight.
[G] The right proportion of muscle and fat is the criterion of health.

参考答案
正确答案:D
参考译文尤夫雷休?多兰蒂诺:我年轻时锻炼是有规律的。但30岁时,我有了家庭和一份繁忙的工作。很多年来我已经忽略了运动。59岁时,我因缺乏运动患了中风。现在我上午在康复中心治疗,下午运动。我鼓励我的朋友开始运动。如果他们不运动,把过多精力投入到工作和家庭中去,他们可能也会得中风的。瑞曼德?奇伍:仅仅因为相对身高而言你的体重处于理想的范围内就认为自己是健康的?那就错了!拿我来说吧,我认为自己每周打网球运动量足够了,因为我不胖,不吸烟不喝酒。就在57岁的时候,一天早上我醒来时胸疼,检查得知我得了严重的心脏病。我惊呆了。现在我每天走一个小时的路程,医生说我的心脏好多了。桑托斯?瑞格博士:无论你是请一个私人教练,每天在社区中心做运动,还是租运动录像,在健康上花的钱总是值得的,因为健康就是财富。但是如果你哪一样都负担不起,那就买双舒服的鞋:散步是免费的。我和朋友组织了一个运动小组,和孩子们玩接球游戏或者把周六空出来去乡村散步。罗斯?齐:年纪太大或者身体不好都不是不锻炼的借口。我直到59岁才开始有规律地锻炼身体。现在我79岁了,每天走45分钟,每周游两次泳。参加运动,远离疾病,感觉充满活力。别人都说,我看起来比实际年龄要年轻。V.M.昌盾:许多人是因为想减肥才开始运动的。但如果减肥不是立竿见影时,他们就放弃了。但是肌肉远比脂肪要重,所以健康的胖人要比不健康的瘦人身体要好。但当我40多岁时,看到自己的体重达到90多公斤,便开始每天散步45分钟。虽然我现在仍然90多公斤,但我觉得强壮多了。我因为自己有的是肌肉而不是脂肪而感到骄傲。61.D【精析】主旨题。从尤夫雷休?多兰蒂诺的叙述中我们可以看出,他由于生活的压力而忽略了锻炼。故选D。
