主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章主要说明了保持良好睡眠的建议，即如何获得良好的睡眠来改善你的生活，故选A。 【点睛】如何做主旨大意题
首先，任何一篇文章都是围绕某个主题展开的，因此，许多文章中最明显的特点之一是有一个反复出现的中心词，即高频词，也叫做主题词。抓住了它，便容易抓住文章的中心。 第二，要搞清是问某一段还是全文的大意。
可利用段落信息来把握文脉，进行综合归纳，概括文章的主题。如有标题，标题中的蕴含的信息往往是关键信息。
第三: 要学会借助文章的结构来把握中心思想。段落中心思想常常由主题句( Topic sentence)来表达。主题句常常出现在段首(60%--90%)或段尾处, 有时也在段落中间。同样, 一篇文章的中心思想也常常在开始段或结尾段点出。因此, 在阅读中, 我们要对文章的开始段和结尾段及段落的主题句给予特别的注意。如文章第四小题，选出最佳题目，要根据文章第三、四和第五段落都以提出提高睡眠质量为主要内容，故文章是以给出提高睡眠建议为主的。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）

It’s a good idea to talk to someone who understands the exercise, like a coach or fitness expert at a gym. ___14___

这是一篇说明文。本文讲述如何选择适合自己的锻炼形式。
【11题详解】
根据上文One of the biggest reasons people drop an exercise program is lack of interest.（人们放弃锻炼计划的最大原因之一是缺乏兴趣。）可知下文应提到没有了兴趣，坚持下去就很困难。故选A。 【12题详解】
根据上文“When picking the right type of exercise, it can help to consider your workout personality.”可推测本空应为列举有哪些个人的锻炼个性，故可对应G选项：例如，你可能喜欢一个人按照自己的时间表锻炼。故选G。 【13题详解】
根据下文“For example, whether your chosen activity is affordable and available to you”中关键词affordable“负担得起的”可对应到B选项中practical“实际的”，故选B选项：你还需要考虑实际情况来计划。 【14题详解】
根据上文中“It’s a good idea to talk to someone who understands the exercise, like a coach or fitness expert at a gym.”可知建议找健身房的教练或者健身专家谈谈，他或她可以让你开始一个适合你的项目。故选D。 【15题详解】
根据后文“Even small things can count as exercise when you’re starting out -like…”（当你开始锻炼的时候，即使是很小的事情也可以算作锻炼）可知本空应强调开始锻炼的意义，故可对应到F选项：锻炼的好处是，开始永远不晚。故选F。
【点睛】在七选五阅读过程中，重要关注文章的首段与末段。尤其是文章的这两段的末尾句，因为“开门见山”与“末尾点题”的写作方式是最为常见的，首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在，说明本文将探讨哪些内容，并简要指出文章的写作思路，有时甚至会以提纲的形式进行呈现。如第三小题位于句首，属于主题句，在判断选项时，一定要根据下文中“For example, whether your chosen activity is affordable and available to you”与整体段落大意进行判断，本段主要是在讲锻炼要从实际出发，故选B选项。 第二部分英语知识运用（共三节，满分55分）
