Directions：There are 4 passages in this part. Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.
Passage One
Declaring that physical exercise is one of the most powerful medicines to help improve our quality of life is not an exaggeration. The World Health Organization expressed the same view in its 2002 World Health Report，emphasizing that the damage produced by lack of physical activity was equal to the strong probability of serious illness such as heart disease and even some kinds of cancer.
Those who have embraced an active lifestyle for years are familiar with the sort of physical and psychological benefits that come from exercise. Nevertheless a lot of people would never think of physical activity as a way of feeling better, simply because they don‘t think they are in need of it，or because they are lazy or maintain that they haven‘t got enough time.
There are many positive effects that result from physical exercise and they are not only concerned with the physical aspects but also psychological and social ones.
Beginning with the physical benefits，physical activity improves the life of the heart，burns off fat，lowers high blood pressure，makes tissues more resistant，and increases muscle flexibility and joint mobility.
On a psychological level，physical activity helps reduce anxiety and stress by causing tension to disappear and by encouraging us to have a better sense of ourselves through listening to our bodies during movement.
Lastly, seeing ourselves in better health is advantageous socially. The sense of satisfaction thus obtained will result in an increase of self-respect and self-confidence in terms of our ability to interact with others.
The benefits linked to exercise have also not gone unnoticed in the business world，with more and more companies setting up gyms on-site. Employees‘ improved health translates into better performance and reduced costs as well as an increase in people‘s satisfaction in the work place.
Physical activity is recommended for all age groups，including children. It is an important growth factor in a child‘s education.
And for the elderly? There is no doubt that regular physical activity allows greater efficiency in daily life as well as creating more basic independence day by day, including the possibility of keeping in touch with others and not feeling isolated.
31. The writer regards physical exercise as a strong medicine because .
A. the WHO holds the view
B. it helps improve the quality of life C. the lack of it equals serious illness D. it enables people to live longer
32. Many people do not engage in physical exercise mainly because
A. they are not aware of its benefits B. they don‘t have the facilities C. they don‘t think they need it D. they are physically unfit for it
33. According to the passage，physical exercise can make people .
A. stronger and more intelligent
B. more intelligent and more open-minded C. more open-minded and healthier D. healthier and stronger
34. Physical exercise is socially beneficial because .
A. it gives people competitive advantage B. it helps people reduce anxiety
C. it enables employees to work better for their company D. it makes people confident in dealing with others
35. According to the passage, regular physical exercise can make old people .
A. better able to look after themselves B. look younger than they really are C. 1ess 1ikely to suffer from diseases
D. more aggressive in their interaction with others
Passage Two
According to the United States government，people are classified as homeless if they have no place to stay and no expectation of finding a place for the next thirty days. Although technically accurate，that is an impersonal assessment of an enormous and very human problem.
The homeless population represents all of us Americans. It includes men and women，the elderly，children，and infants. Its members are from all ethnic(种族的)groups. What they have in common is poverty.
Currently in the U. S.，thirty-nine million people live in poverty. When money is really tight，paying the rent or buying food often becomes a choice. Government assistance in the form of food stamps does help but，as one homeless man explains，you can‘t pay the rent with food stamps.
With no money for rent，the streets and homeless shelters become the alternative.
Although men constitute the largest group within the homeless population，homeless women with children are rapidly joining them. In fact，one quarter of the homeless people in the U. S. are teenagers and young children.
People may become homeless for numerous reasons. However，there are certain factors that many of these individuals have in common. They include a lack of adequate education and job skills. A majority of the teenagers and adults have not completed high schoo1.
The abuse of alcohol and drugs is also a common factor. One third of the adult homeless population abuses alcohol，while one quarter of the same group uses drugs.
Some members of this population suffer mental health problems. Within the past several years many institutions for the mentally ill have been closed and their patients sent ??home‖. Unfortunately, a number of those people have no home to go to and they are unable to adequately look after themselves.
Job loss in today‘s economy has also become a real factor in the loss of people‘s homes. The breakup of families through abandonment and divorce are also contributing factors，particularly when there are children involved. The parent who is left to care for the kids with inadequate income may be forced to depend on the homeless shelters to put a roof over their heads.
36. The writer thinks that the U. S. government‘s definition of the homeless reveals . A. an insincere attitude toward the homeless B. an unbearable attitude toward the homeless C. an uncivilized attitude toward the homeless D. an unsympathetic attitude toward the homeless
37. The U. S. government helps the homeless by .
A. giving them homeless allowances B. giving them food stamps C. finding jobs for them
D. finding residences for them
38. Most of the homeless in the U. S. are .
A. male adults B. female adults C. the elderly D. children 39. People become homeless for all the following reasons EXCEPT .
A. the lack of adequate education B. the abuse of alcohol and drugs
