The University Hospitals of North Midlands Trust agreed last week that patients can play Pokemon Go on wards because walking around is healthy. But the Trust has been forced to post a warning on its website about public access to A&E. It said if Pokemon Go becomes a major annoyance it would ask Nintendo—— which decides on the locations of the virtual gyms according using GPS——to have it removed from the

premises(道馆).

Kevin Parker, associate chief nurse, said, “Members of the public who do not need to be at Royal Stoke should not attempt to enter A&E or any other part of the hospital building to play the game. The A&E department is incredibly busy this summer. We want the public to understand that anybody who visits the hospital solely to play the game will provide an unwanted distraction to the important work of the hospital. I’m also aware of various reports in the media of unsafe areas that the game has been played in.”

“Royal Stoke University Hospital is a safe area where gamers can enjoy Pokemon Go.” Michelle Harris, the Trust’s manager, said the game could still be played by those already in hospital. “We recognize that the Pokemon Go game encourages walking and exercise, which is something that the Trust is equally keen to promote,” she said.

There are a number of “walking routes” established throughout the Trust that can be used to combine walking and playing the game. “Walking just 30 minutes, five times a week, can help reduce the risk of preventable illnesses such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.”

There have been several warnings about the game since its UK release. Last week a group of teenagers in Wiltshire were left stranded almost 100ft underground after they got carried away searching for Pokemon Go characters. The four boys, aged 16 and 17, ended up getting lost and had to wait to get a phone signal before they could call for help. Eventually, they contacted Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue team, who took them to safety. Damien Bence, of the fire and rescue team, said: “Pokemon Go is obviously leading people into dangerous situations.” 27. It seems that Pokemon Go is a game______.

A. designed to help patients in hospital recover sooner

B. helping cure such diseases as obesity, diabetes and heart disease C. encouraging players to walk and exercise instead of staying indoors D. warning teenagers of the places easy to get lost or attacked

28. The A&E department is incredibly busy because________.

A. more patients’ arrival increases the workload of the A&E department B. doctors’ playing the game makes the A&E department less efficient C. players’ injury increases the workload of the A&E department D. players’ arrival disturbs the work of the A&E department 29. The underlined word in the last paragraph probably means_______. A. hurt B. disturbed C. trapped D. threatened 30. The passage is mainly about________.

A. the negative effects of Pokemon Go since its UK release

B. the applications of Pokemon Go in hospitals since its UK release C. the popularity of Pokemon Go since its UK release

D. the establishment of Pokemon Go virtual gyms since its UK release 第二节（共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

Any exercise is good exercise, but when it comes to losing weight, it’s hard to beat running. After all, running is one of the most efficient ways to burn calories and get fit without having to restrict your diet. 31 If you’re not a runner yet but interested in losing weight, here are four reasons running can be the best exercise for weight loss.

32 When comparing running with walking the same distance, studies find that running will lead to greater weight loss, most likely because your resting energy expenditure stays elevated(高的) after you run. In a long-term comparison study of runners and walkers, calories burned through running led to 90% more weight loss than calories burned through walking.

Running is time-efficient.Even if the myth that running a mile and walking a mile burn the same number of calories were true, running is a considerably faster way to burn those calories. 33

Running is convenient. Though many of us have accumulated a vast arsenal(武器，装备) of GPS gadgets and tech tees over the years, little is actually required to go running. You can do it alone. You can do it almost anywhere. 34 For this reason alone, running is the best workout for weight loss because it’s cheap and accessible, and there are fewer barriers to maintaining a routine, even while traveling.

Two words: runner’s high. 35 Fortunately, studies support what many runners have experienced on an anecdotal level—running can actually get you high.

Scientists have found links between moderate to intense exercise and morphine-like brain chemicals, which explains the occasional flood of thrill that rushes over you during a hard run. That happy sensation you had after your last race makes you want to go for another run, right?

A. Cultivate the good habit of running. B. Running works even when you’re at rest.

C. You will never stick to a habit if you don’t like it.

D. The first rule of exercising for weight loss is that if you don’t enjoy it, you won’t stick with it.

E. You don’t need any equipment beyond a pair of running shoes. F. If you’re already a runner, keep on.

G. Most people can run two or three times as far as they can walk in a given amount of time.
