Maybe you think there are many reasons why you are over weighed? Recent research compare the sedentary（久坐的） behavior to smoking, warning it could reduce years from your lifespan. Now, researchers at the University of Texas, have added their weight to the argument. They found standing for up to six hours a day, can cut fat levels by a third.

Being upright, rather than slumped(消沉) at your desk, in front of the TV or on the train to work, for one quarter of the day is linked to a 32 percent decrease in the chance of becoming obese（肥胖的）.

They found that among men, standing a quarter of the time was linked to a 32 percent reduced likelihood of obesity (body fat percentage). Standing half the time was associated with a 59 percent reduced likelihood of obesity. But standing more than three-quarters of the time was not associated with a lower risk of obesity.

In women, standing a quarter, half, and three quarters of the time was associated with 35 percent, 47 percent, and 57 percent respective reductions in the likelihood of waist size. The US scientists looked at the standing habits of more than 7,000 adults and compared their body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage and waist size.

Many people think that squeezing in breakfast before work is a feat （技艺）in itself. However, research from the World Economic Forum states that successful people make the most of their mornings. They have released a list of 14 things that successful people do in the mornings before the first

meal of the day. It includes exercising, spending quality time with the family, networking over coffee and working on a personal-passion project.

The WEF states: "Those among us who have managed to find professional success and maintain a life actively embrace this philosophy. They must set aside their first ho urs of the day to invest in their top-priority activities before other people’s priorities come rushing in.” This is backed up by science - Laura Vanderkam, a time-management expert and the autho r of “What the Most Successful People Do Before Breakfast", cites the famous finding of Roy Baumeister, a Florida State University psychology professor, that willpower is like a muscle that becomes exhausted from overuse.

Diets are easy to keep up with during the day, for example, but often fall flat in the evening when our bodies and willpower get tired. However, rest assured that you don't have to do all 14 every day before you finish your breakfast - just a selection. The WEF says: "While they might not do all of these things every morning, each has been found to be an effective way to start the day."

24. According to the first paragraph, _______.

A. successful people make the best of their mornings

B. many people spend lots of time on breakfast

If you read one more article on happiness in the workplace, you're going to lose it. For you, it's different. You need to continue in your current job because your spouse is still in school, you're building the skills you

need to move to the next level, or you want to make a dent in that mountainous student loan debt. Eventually, you'll start searching for a job you love —but right now, you're stuck.

For now, getting through each day is a battle: work that isn't interesting, co-workers who make you crazy, a boss who doesn't seem to have a clue how to manage people. All this advice about being happy at work seems like a big fat pile of bull hockey that simply doesn't apply to you. If so, I have some good news. Yes, happiness is one form of life satisfaction — but finding meaning is another.

Sometimes, we assume that finding meaning is all about saving the world, feeding the hungry, or housing the homeless. But it's not limited to that. Psychologist Todd Hall defines meaningful work as "work that contributes to the well-being of others in a way that uniquely expresses and defines who we are."

Here are some ways to find that meaning in your work —even if you think your job is a soul-sucking black hole of boredom. No matter your situation, you're at your current job for a reason. Maybe you need the income to save for a house for your growing family, or maybe there's an illness in your family and you absolutely must have the medical coverage that job provides. And there's beauty in that: That means while you're at work, you're contributing to the well-being of others. Your commitment to accomplishing those financial goals, supporting your family, or enabling that medical care is vital to your life and the lives of the people you care about.

28. The reason why you should continue in your current job is _______.

A. your spouse is still in school

B. you're building the skills you need to move to the next level

C. you want to make a dent in that mountainous student loan debt

. D. because of all the above reasons.

【答案】：D

29. Why getting through a day is like a battle for you?

A. Your boss is good at managing people.

B. You are making your co-workers crazy.

C. The work you are doing is boring.

D. The day is too long for you.

【答案】：C

30. Which of the following is not the meaning of work?

A. To feed the people who are hungry.

B. To provide house for the homeless.

C. To contribute to the well-being of others

D. To express and define what work is

【答案】：D

【解析】：本题为细节推理题“in a way that uniquely expresses and defines who we are.”可知。表达和定义的是我们自己，而非工作。

31. The best title for this passage is _______.

A. You need to continue your current job

B. Finding the meaning of your work

C. Doing all the 14 things is effective to start the day.

D. Express uniquely who you are

【答案】：B

【解析】：本题考查对整篇文章的理解和把握。全文都在讲述工作的意义。

D

Next time you're looking for a job, it might be worth checking the gender of the chief executive's children. Research has found that having a daughter significantly impacts how CEOs run their companies. In particular, CEOs with daughters are more likely to offer childcare, let employees work flexible hours and have a more diverse workforce.

If the main decision maker has a female child, the company is also generally nicer to employees - and this effect is even greater if the daughter is the CEO's first-born child. To study the impact of a child's gender on a chief executive's policies, Professor Henrik Cronqvist from the University of Miami and Associate Professor Frank Yu, from China Europe International Business School studied the decisions made by almost 400 CEOs. Almost 4 percent of these executives were women, and between them the group had a total of 1,000 children.

Interestingly enough, having a son doesn't have the same results mentioned above and firms that change from a chief executive who has a daughter to one who doesn't see a noticeable fall-off in these types of CSR-related initiatives.

32. From the first paragraph, we know that_______.

A. the age of a company’s CEO should be checked when you look for a job

B. the gender of a company’s CEO might be important in job hunting

C. CEOs with daughters are unlike ly to offer childcare.

. D. you could expect flexible hours from a CEO with a son.

【答案】：B

33. According to the passage, it is true that_______,

A. CEOs with a daughter are more likely to have a diverse workforce

B. decision makers with a male child are nicer to their staff.

C. CEOs with a son have the same results with CEOs with a daughter.

D. The effect is greater if the daughter is the only child in the family. 【答案】：A

【解析】：本题为细节题“In particular, CEOs with daughters are more likely to offer childcare, let employees work flexible hours and have a more diverse workforce..”可知。

34. The fact that having a son doesn't have the same results mentioned above is ______.

A. ridiculous

B. unfortunate

C. interesting

D. unacceptable

【答案】：C

【解析】：本题为细节推理题“Interestingly enough, having a son doesn't have the same results mentioned above”可知作者认为这种现象十分有趣。

35. The best title for this passage is _______.

A. CEOs with only one child

B. Make the right decision

C. Hunt for a job

D. Find your right CEO 【答案】：D

It goes without saying that school is a second home for most students, which is the reason why we should build a green campus.

As far as I’m concerned, the green campus shouldn’t only refers to the green environment in which the school is full of flowers and trees, but also refers to the healthy atmosphere in which we all refuse to depend too much on the cell phone or stay out in the net bar.

To play our roles in the construction of the green campus, we should try to do the following. Firstly, trees and flowers should be protected by us.

Secondly, we should improve our awareness of the green campus. Thirdly, a healthy life attitude should be built, which means refusing to over depend on the cell phone or int ernet.
