【解析】选D。推理判断题。由第四段的第一句话和最后一句话可知, 作者的邻居包括作者在内对那位在吃第四块巧克力饼干的跑步者点头表示理解, 但他们自己却远离甜品, 而且他们认为吃高热量的食物会破坏他们的运动效果; 由此可推知, 许多做运动的人不敢吃高热量的食物。

6. What does the underlined word “yearningly” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Casually. B. Eagerly. C. Reluctantly.

D. Rapidly.

【解析】选B。词义猜测题。由上文吃四块巧克力饼干的跑步者的例子以及此人所说的Maybe I should run a marathon 可推知, 作者的朋友想吃甜点, 故渴望地看着它。

7. Which statement best states the author’s main point? A. The benefits of exercise are widely ignored. B. Few people know how to exercise properly. C. It’s a good way to reward with food.

A. Someone who is thin and eats much must be a devoted exerciser. B. When the weather is not good, the runner will still run. C. Most of us exercise to keep fit.

D. It’s essential to hang a cookie over a treadmill to keep ourselves walking longer.

【解析】选C。细节理解题。第二段中的thinking someone who is thin and eats so many cookies must be a devoted exerciser. 说明只是作者这样认为, 故A项错误。由第三段中的My running group meets at 6 am every morning all year round, unless there is a snowstorm or too much ice to run safely. 可知, 天气不好的时候, 就不会跑, 说明B项错误。第四段中的No cookies for us. Of course, we exercise as a way to keep healthy说明C项正确。根据文章最后一段的It’s unnecessary to hang a cookie over a treadmill to keep ourselves walking longer. 可知, D项错误。 【知识拓展】

Some people put their bicycles away once they learn how to drive a car. For many people, bicycling is not just an easy way of getting around town but also an exciting sport. 1 .

One kind of race is the time trial. Each racer leaves the starting line at a different time and heads hard for the finish line. The cyclist who covers the distance in the shortest amount of time wins the race. 2 , because the bicycles are spread out and are not likely to run into each other.

Another kind of race is more difficult. A few city blocks are closed to traffic. Then all the racers line up in a tight pack and begin racing at the same time. 3 . The race requires more than speed. It also

requires skilful handling of the bicycle as it runs at full speed around other bicycles. The racer who completes all the laps first is the winner.

4 . Racers have to cover anywhere from 35 miles to almost 3, 000 miles. The race course may be a straight stretch of road or a long series of roads across the country. The prize goes to the first person who crosses the finish line.
