10、a travel companion who is very familiar with the place youre traveling to. You dont have to ask any information from the locals, and you can increase the time you spend in the country.One of the major headaches in traveling is the costs involved.

17、nning marathons(马拉松) will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock. According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all. Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers (慢跑者
18、) and non-joggers for 12 years.The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die.The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour.The research suggests tha
19、t people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non-joggers.The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries (动脉).Over time,this can cause serious injuries.Peter Schnohr,a research
20、er in Copenhagen,said,“If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy (寿命),jogging a few times a week at a moderate (适度的) pace is a good strategy.Anything more is not just unnecessary,and it may be harmful.”The implications (暗示) of this are that moderate forms of exercise such
21、 as tai chi,yoga and brisk (轻快的) walking may be better for us than “iron man” events,triathlons and long-distance running and cycling.According to Jacob Louis Marott,another researcher involved in the study,“You dont actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health.And perhaps you
22、shouldnt actually do too much”.8. The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “_”.A. hard B. regular C. practical D. flexible9.

It will bring much pressure. D. It consumes too much energy.11. What can be inferred from the next?A. No exercise at all is th
24、e best choice.B. More exercise means a healthier life.C. Marathons runners are least likely to die.D. Proper exercise contributes to good health. DLast night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg,a distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck
25、 on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left,and I became increasingly impatient.At one point along an open road, I came to a crossing with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I drove near the light, it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Not
26、hing. Not a car, no suggestion of car lamps, but there I sat, waiting for the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile at any direction.I started wondering why I refused to run the light. I was not afraid of being caught, because there was clearly no policeman around, and there cert
27、ainly would have been no danger in going thorough it.Much later that night, the question of why Id stopped for that light came back to me. I think I stopped because its part of a contract (契约) we all have with each other. Its not only the law, but its an agreement we have, and we trust each other to
28、 honor it: wedontgothroughredlights.Trust is our first inclination (倾向). Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual (互相) trust, not distrust.We do what we say well do; weshowupwhenwesaywellshowup;andwepaywhenwesaywellpay. We trust each
