A
My 10-year-old son and two friends attended a 2-hour fantastic basketball camp last week.A few minutes before the session ended,there was a shooting contest.Only a few kids were chosen to compete,and my son was not one of them.The contest winners received prizes and recognition,as did a few kids chosen as “all-stars” for effort,skill and participation.
Again,my son was not selected.My son was struggling to deal with his disappointment.
At the camp,he played a basketball game with kids he had never met,guarded them fiercely and took shots easily against them.As his mum,I was thrilled that he spent the day without his phone.All in all,the day felt wonderful.The last thing I wanted was for these awards to ruin the experience.
I decided to simplify it for him.I did the math and figured out the shooting contest and awards were about 6% of the total camp.The rest of the camp,the parts that he enjoyed,were 94% of the day.Even though the kid loves math,it was hard for him to regard the contests and awards as a small part of his day.
My son once told me about a negative situation that played out at recess (课间休息).The way he explained it felt like the disagreement lasted hours,but it turns out it was only the last few minutes of recess.
Now is the time for me as the parent to help my kids think more positively.If my son leaves a half-day camp and most of the day is great—that’s a win.If our family is able to go to Florida over winter break and enjoy time together,away from the everyday headaches,that’s also a win.We can acknowledge the aspects that disappoint us,as long as we are willing to then focus on the bigger picture.
It starts with me and my husband.Our kids will model the behaviour we show.They need to see us thinking positively and not hyper-focusing on the negative 6%.

A study,published in European Heart Journal,is the first to assess how different movement patterns throughout the 24-hour day are linked to heart health.
In this study,British researchers analysed data from six studies,involving 15,246 people from five countries,to see how movement behaviour across the day is associated with heart health.Each participant used a wearable device,a key novelty (新奇的事物),on their thighs (大腿) to measure their activities throughout the 24-hour day and had their heart health measured.
The researchers identified a series of behaviours that make up a typical 24-hour day,with time spent doing moderate-vigorous activity providing the most benefit to heart health,
followed by light activity,standing and sleeping compared with the negative impact of sedentary (久坐) behaviour.The team modelled what would happen if an individual changed various amounts of one behaviour for another each day for a week,in order to estimate the effect on heart health for each scenario.When replacing sedentary behaviour,as little as five minutes of moderate-vigorous activity had a noticeable effect on heart health.
Dr Blodgett,first author of the study,said,“The big takeaway from our research is that while small changes to how you move can have a positive effect on heart health,intensity of movement matters.The most beneficial change we observed was to replace sitting with moderate-vigorous activity,which could be a run,a brisk walk,or stair climbing,basically any activity that raises your heart rate and makes you breathe faster,even for a minute or two.”
Dr Blodgett also pointed out that although time spent doing vigorous activity was the quickest way to improve heart health,there are ways to benefit for people of all abilities—it’s just that the lower the intensity of the activity,the longer the time is required to start having a reliable benefit.Using a standing desk for a few hours a day instead of a sitting desk,for example,is not only a change over a relatively large amount of time but is also one that could be combined into a working routine fairly easily as it does not require any time commitment.
(　　)5.Why is a wearable device mentioned in Paragraph 2
[A] To suggest the study’s creativity.
[B] To stress the importance of measuring.
[C] To explain the basis of six studies concerned.
[D] To introduce the various movement patterns.
(　　)6.Which has the worst effect on heart health according to the text
[A] Standing. [B] Sleeping.
[C] Climbing stairs. [D] Sedentary behaviour.
(　　)7.Which statement will Dr Blodgett probably agree with
[A] We had better avoid spending time on vigorous exercise.
[B] Small changes the way you exercise count most for heart health.
[C] The standing desk for a few hours a day outweighs a sitting one.
[D] The lower the strength of the exercise,the better for heart health.
(　　)8.What is the text mainly about
[A] It is about that any activity is better for your heart than sedentary behaviour.
[B] It is about the suitable exercise schedule of a day.
[C] It is about that changing exercise routine every day in a week matters.
[D] It is about the relationship between exercise patterns and heart health.

2.【解析】 考查介词。分析句意可知,此处可以用介词on表示“在”平台,或者介词through表示“通过”平台。故填on/through。
3.【解析】 考查名词复数。因为提示词element是可数名词,且前面没有冠词,因此空处应用名词的复数形式。故填elements。
