T mst peple especially the Americans, the Canadians speak the same language as them. This makes them believe that Canadian English is simply American English. Hwever, there are several reasns why it can be said that the Canadians have their wn variant (变体) f the English language. What makes Canadian English s special?
Canadian English is a variant f bth variants. Because f the fact that their next-dr neighbrs speak American English, n dubt they were largely influenced by it. Hwever, it is t be nted that the Canadians were strngly against clnizatin (殖民化) when the Americans tried t frce them t jin. This shwed just hw much lyalty (忠诚) they have fr the Queen f England. The English spken by the British and that spken by the Americans are wrlds apart and Canadian English tk the best f bth wrlds t create its wn language style.
What’s mre, nthing beats the uniqueness (独特性) f the Canadian accent (口音). This accent can g back t the histry f the first Canadians. The first peple t arrive in Canada were the Irish wh were under the rule f Great Britain. Hwever, sn after, a large number f peple wh came frm neighbring America als started t arrive.

Wndering whether it’s wrth ging fr a little jg? A new study shws that any amunt f running lwers the risk f premature (过早的) death.
In an analysis (分析) f 14 previus studies — frm the US, the UK, China and Denmark — the grup f researchers frm Australia, Thailand and Finland said that increased running participatin “wuld prbably lead t imprvements in ppulatin health.”
The studies they used included 232, 149 participants ver time perids ranging frm 5.5 t 35 years. Overall, peple wh ran any distance were cnnected with a 27% lwer risk f death frm all causes than thse wh did nt, ne f the studies shws. Running was als cnnected with a 30% and 23% lwer risk f death frm heart-related disease and cancer, respectively (分别地).
Lead researcher Željk Pedišić, a prfessr at Victria University in Melburne, tld CNN: “Our findings may mtivate physically inactive peple t take up running and thse wh already run t keep n ding it.” He added that dctrs “may be encuraged by ur findings t let mre peple realize that running is a part f ‘lifestyle medicine.’”
In their paper, which will be printed in the British Jurnal f Sprts Medicine, the researchers say health prfessinals are smetimes lking ut fr the pssible danger f encuraging peple t run “because vigrus exertin (剧烈运动) has been cnnected with sudden death.”
Pedišić and his team disagree with this by nting that “the benefit f running is mre imprtant than the risk.” Hwever, they d say advice shuld be given n a case-by-case basis, as running might nt be prper fr everyne. And althugh running has a clear health benefit, Pedišić pints ut that higher “dses ( 剂量)” f running may nt necessarily reduce the risk f premature death further.
12. What des the research mainly fcus n?
A. The influence f running n health.B. The pssible risks f running.
C. The prper way t run.D. The best time t run.
13. What des the underlined wrd “mtivate” in paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Teach.B. Frce.C. Inspire.D. Require.
14. What might be health prfessinals’ attitude t the research findings?
A. Ttally uninterested.B. Strngly supprtive.
C. A bit disappinted.D. A little wrried.
15. What is Pedišić’s advice t peple chsing running as a frm f exercise?
A. Running regularly.B. Taking prfessinal advice.
C. Warming up befre running.D. Cnsidering ne’s persnal cnditin.

Canadian English is a variant f bth variants. Because f the fact that their next-dr neighbrs speak American English, n dubt they were largely influenced by it.

Wndering whether it’s wrth ging fr a little jg? A new study shws that any amunt f running lwers the risk f premature (过早的) death.
In an analysis (分析) f 14 previus studies — frm the US, the UK, China and Denmark — the grup f researchers frm Australia, Thailand and Finland said that increased running participatin “wuld prbably lead t imprvements in ppulatin health.”
The studies they used included 232, 149 participants ver time perids ranging frm 5.5 t 35 years. Overall, peple wh ran any distance were cnnected with a 27% lwer risk f death frm all causes than thse wh did nt, ne f the studies shws. Running was als cnnected with a 30% and 23% lwer risk f death frm heart-related disease and cancer, respectively (分别地).
Lead researcher Željk Pedišić, a prfessr at Victria University in Melburne, tld CNN: “Our findings may mtivate physically inactive peple t take up running and thse wh already run t keep n ding it.” He added that dctrs “may be encuraged by ur findings t let mre peple realize that running is a part f ‘lifestyle medicine.’”
In their paper, which will be printed in the British Jurnal f Sprts Medicine, the researchers say health prfessinals are smetimes lking ut fr the pssible danger f encuraging peple t run “because vigrus exertin (剧烈运动) has been cnnected with sudden death.”
Pedišić and his team disagree with this by nting that “the benefit f running is mre imprtant than the risk.” Hwever, they d say advice shuld be given n a case-by-case basis, as running might nt be prper fr everyne. And althugh running has a clear health benefit, Pedišić pints ut that higher “dses ( 剂量)” f running may nt necessarily reduce the risk f premature death further.
12. What des the research mainly fcus n?
A. The influence f running n health.B. The pssible risks f running.
C. The prper way t run.D. The best time t run.
13. What des the underlined wrd “mtivate” in paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Teach.B. Frce.C. Inspire.D. Require.
14. What might be health prfessinals’ attitude t the research findings?
A. Ttally uninterested.B. Strngly supprtive.
C. A bit disappinted.D. A little wrried.
15. What is Pedišić’s advice t peple chsing running as a frm f exercise?
A. Running regularly.B. Taking prfessinal advice.
C. Warming up befre running.D. Cnsidering ne’s persnal cnditin.
