Part II1 Reading Comprehension (25 points)
Directions: In this section, there are four passages folloved by que stions or unfinished statements, each withfour choices A, B, C and D. Choose the best answver and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.
Passage One
Who says your job leaves you no time to hit the gym? A detailed new study of U.S physical activity patterns shows that men who work fulltime whether their jobs are active or se de ntary end up getting more exercise than healthy working-age men without a job.
The new study comes from researchers at the National Institutes of Health(NIH). As part of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in, some 1,800 working-age adults were asked a battery of questions about their lifestyle and work habis and, cruc ally, they then agreed to wear an accelerometer- -a device to measure their physical activity- over the course of several days.
Those data fom the provide a rare opportunity to nail down how much activity the actually does.
They show that men or women who work in active jobs do more physical activity on weekdays than men or women working in sedentary jobs. That's perhaps not surprising, but the NIH rese archers suggest that it still matters wst because of an ongoing shift in the cconomy toward sedentary work.
The more surprising finding is the one that compares fll-time workers to people who don't work. The study shows that men with flltime jobs do more physical activity than healthy men without jobs.("Healthy man," in this case, were those men who said their primary reason for wst being out of work was something other than health or disability.) In fact,even sedentary full time workers performed more weekday physical activity overall than the healthy non-workers.The results loked very dferenet for women. Women in sedentary jobs didJcs pysical activity on weekdays than their he althy non-working peers.
So what drives the gender(性別)iference? The study looks at the pattems, and unfortunately can't provide too much detail about their causes. There could be many possible answers, including, perhaps, diferent abilities to pay for leisure time activities, or different atiudes about work and physical activity. It could also be that moreBut the NIH researchers do find evidence, they write, to suggest that, whatever causes the difference, healthynon-working women“are replacing pursuits whereas" for some reason- "“[non-working]men generally are not."
