Group exercise is one of the most effective ways to improve physical fitness and sustain (保持) a healthy lifestyle. Group exercise is challenging, yet fun! Of course everyone knows that exercise is good for the body. However, studies have shown that when exercise is performed in groups, it’s not only great for improving physical health but for psychological health. It’s an opportunity to be social and improve your strength. Additionally, group exercise creates a community feel and the shared common goal inspire people to work hard.
Another beneficial aspect of group exercise is the informational support people receive from the instructor. Many people fear the gym because they feel lost and don’t want to embarrass themselves. If you feel that way, then group training is an even better option for you. It’s a great opportunity to learn more about fitness through the clear instruction of a fitness instructor. If you’re tired of wandering around the gym wasting time and becoming bored, you can attend an upbeat group fitness class that will keep your workout on track. Don’t let fitness frighten you!
If you’re serious about wanting to live a healthy lifestyle, it’s extremely important to surround yourself with people who’ll provide you with the proper emotional support. Surround yourself with people who encourage and understand you! Make fitness even more fun by trying something new or any group fitness class with a friend. Plan to go for a jog together. Then try a fun healthy restaurant or fresh juice bar! Fitness can be both fun and social!
Surrounding yourself with people who’ll provide you with respect support can be very beneficial while working towards reaching health and fitness goals. First, decide to do it for yourself and work towards staying positive. Then make sure the people you surround yourself with are supportive.

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句Additionally, group exercise creates a community feel and the shared common goal inspire people to work hard.可知此外，团体运动创造了一种社区感觉和共同目标激励人们努力工作。由此可知，团体运动可以创造一种归属感，所以更有益。故选D。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文that will keep your workout on track.可知如果你厌倦了在健身房里浪费时间和无聊，参加一个一个乐观的团体健身班可以让你的锻炼保持在正轨上。故划线单词意思为“乐观的，快乐的”。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句If you’re serious about wanting to live a healthy lifestyle, it’s extremely important to surround yourself with people who’ll provide you with the proper emotional support.可知如果你真的想要过一种健康的生活方式，和那些能给你提供适当情感支持的人在一起是非常重要的。由此可知，朋友的感情支持很重要。故选A。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句Group exercise is one of the most effective ways to improve physical fitness and sustain a healthy lifestyle.可知团体运动是提高身体素质和保持健康生活方式的最有效方法之一。结合下文内容可推断，文章的主要内容是在说团体运动的好处，团体运动包含的好处主要是因为大家在一起运动，不仅生理上会有一些好处，而且团队内其他成员会给你支持，教练也会给你们一些信息上的支持。故B选项“团体运动，身体更健康”符合文章标题。故选B。
【点睛】概括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时，务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。如第四小题，根据第一段第一句Group exercise is one of the most effective ways to improve physical fitness and sustain a healthy lifestyle.可知团体运动是提高身体素质和保持健康生活方式的最有效方法之一。文章的主要内容是在说团体运动的好处，团体运动包含的好处主要是因为大家在一起运动，不仅生理上会有一些好处，而且团队内其他成员会给你支持，教练也会给你们一些信息上的支持。故B选项“团体运动，身体更健康”符合文章标题。故选B。

China has abolished (废除) its controversial birth restrictions, reversing (彻底改变) nearly four decades of family planning policies as birth rates fall.
China began implementing (实施) the one-child policy in the 1980s to slow population growth. But in recent years concern is accumulating that an ageing and shrinking workforce could slow China’s economy, while gender imbalances could lead to social problems. And the limit was raised to two children in 2016 as the nation tried to rejuvenate (使恢复活力) its ageing population of 1.4 billion.
However, child births have not increased as much as forecast since the two-child policy came into force. Couples have been in no rush to start larger families since the policy was loosened, with 17.9 million babies born in 2016 — just 1.3 million more than in the previous year, half of what was expected, according to the National Bureau of Statistics. Births in 2017 even slipped to 17.2 million, well below the official forecast of more than 20 million.
And there has been an assumption that the government will further ease restrictions. Other changes include a one-month cooling-off period before a divorce, during which either party (一方当事人) can withdraw their application.
News of the changes lit up social media. “So they want us to have more babies and fewer divorces? ”wrote one user on Weibo, China’s equivalent of Twitter. “The created generation, us only children, let’s gather together and prepare to work into old age,” another user wrote. “Having children is good, which eases the government’s health care cost for the elderly. ”
Hong Fincher said it remained to be seen how the Chinese government would adopt any changes. She said incentives(激励) to have more children had not worked and that the government might resort to other measures.
8. Why was the one-child policy adopted in the 1980s?
A. Because of the booming population. B. Because of the severe social problems.
C. Because of the imbalanced gender ratio. D. Because of the rapidly ageing population.
9. How many babies were expected to be born in 2016?
A. 2.6 million. B. 17.2 million. C. 17.9 million. D. 19.2 million.
10. What is netizens’ (网民) attitude towards the proposed changes?
A. Mixed. B. Disapproving. C. Approving. D. Indifferent.
11. What is the main idea of the text?
A. China has adopted the two-child policy. B. China’s one-child policy had little effect.
C. China could further loosen its birth policy. D. China’s ageing population continues to rise.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国已经废除了传统的生育限制，希望通过采取鼓励生育的政策如二孩政策等来提高生育率，但效果未达到预期。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。文章第二段“China began implementing (实施) the one-child policy in the 1980s to slow population growth.(20世纪80年代，中国开始实施独生子女政策来减慢人口的增长)”说明中国实施独生子女政策是因为当时人口的急剧增长。故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段“Couples have been in no rush to start larger families since the policy was loosened, with 17.9 million babies born in 2016 — just 1.3 million more than in the previous year, half of what was expected, according to the National Bureau of Statistics(自从政策放宽以来，夫妻并没有急于开始大人口家庭。根据国家统计局，2016年出生了1亿7千9百万婴儿，仅仅比去年出生婴儿多1百30万，是预期的一半)”可知，多的1百30万，是预期的一半，还有一半预期没达成，所以2016年出生预期比实际出生婴儿还少1百30万，故2016年出生预期是1亿7千9百万加1百30万，一共1亿9千2百万。故选D项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第五段“The created generation, us only children, let’s gather together and prepare to work into old age(我们独生子女，被创造出来的一代人，让我们一起准备好工作到老)”和“Having children is good，which eases the government’s health care cost for the elderly(生孩子是有益的，可以减轻政府对老年人的医保负担)”可知，网民对该政策看法不一，褒贬不一，是复杂的。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。由文章第一段“China has abolished(废除) its controversial birth restrictions(中国已经废除了传统的生育限制)”和最后一段“She said incentives (激励) to have more children had not worked and that the government might resort to other measures.(她说激励生育更多的孩子没有起作用，政府可能会采取其他措施)”说明，全文围绕着中国政府放宽生育政策，鼓励多生孩子，但是效果甚微，最后表明政府将采取进一步措施。故选C项。

Can you imagine a bicycle that has an iPhone on its handle and provides navigation tools and fitness information, along with data collectors that measure air pollution? This is just the beginning of the list of things that this dynamic new bicycle, known as the Copenhagen Wheel, is capable of. The biggest characteristic of this bike is its red hub (轮轴) on the back wheel, where the brain of the bike stores power, increases speed, monitors the rider’s exercise, and collects data from the air and the environment. The data that is collected is put onto a public website so citizens can find out what their city’s atmosphere is like during the day.
The Copenhagen Wheel comes to us from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the U.S.A. It was developed by a part of MIT that is putting “intelligence” into everyday things that are a part of the infrastructure (基本设施) of our cities. Researchers from MIT chose the Copenhagen Conference on Climate Change to show off the new bicycle, and early feedback (反馈) was very positive.
The goal of the Copenhagen Wheel project is to promote (促进) cycling by lengthening the distance people can cover. In addition, the makers ensure the whole bike riding experience is smoother so that even steep (陡峭的) roads are no longer a problem for comfortable cycling. This new bicycle is also perfect for protecting the environment, and many big cities are making plans to encourage their citizens to use this two-wheeler when they go to and from work. The director of the Copenhagen Wheel project, Christine Outram, expects that this new bike will help lead the charge of smart transportation into the 21st century. She is fully convinced that many big cities will see the benefits of promoting this type of cycling to their citizens.
12. What’s the key characteristic of the Copenhagen Wheel?
A. The red hub. B. The fast speed.
C. The data collector. D. The iPhone on its handle.
13. What is the use of the collected data?
A. To record the rider’s fitness information. B. To monitor the condition of the bicycle,
C. To help improve riders’ exercise plans. D. To show what the environment is like.
14. What did people think of the Copenhagen Wheel at the beginning?
A. They doubted it. B. They welcomed it.
C. They were surprised by it. D. They were uninterested in it.
15. What’s the main purpose of the Copenhagen Wheel project?
A. To improve public transportation. B. To make steep road riding comfortable.
C. To encourage citizens to do more cycling. D. To make citizens’ riding safer than before.
