Unit 2 Heroes
课后阅读训练 十 Unit 2 Period 5
Ⅰ. 阅读理解
A
If you aren’t walking, running, or biking on a regular basis, you’re really missing out something—it’s good for you, it saves money, it benefits the environment, and everybody is doing it. Need another reason? You can now earn money for charities every time you walk, run, or bike, all through your smartphone.
Working hard for a good cause isn’t exactly a new idea. But the creators of CharityMiles, a new application for iPhones and Android devices, have come up with a way for anyone who walks, runs, or bikes to connect with sponsors at anytime. It’s a simple system—download the free application, choose one of nine participating charities, and start moving. For every mile you walk or run, 25 cents goes to your charity. Biking, meanwhile, earns a dime per mile. That isn’t a huge sum, but if hundreds of thousands—maybe millions—of people download the application? The dimes might start to add up.
CharityMiles still has some work to do, including attracting more charities. The company is putting up one million US dollars to fund itself, and its creators are confident that they will attract several sponsors soon. Whether or not CharityMiles gets more funding or attracts more charities, it’s certainly a new way to encourage green living and aid good causes. If you’re already someone who walks, runs, or bikes, scoring some money for your favourite cause at the same time becomes a very easy thing.

B
With people drinking once a day, can heart attacks be kept away? Over the past decades, numerous(许多)studies have found that moderate(适度)alcohol consumption(酒精消耗), say, one or two beers, glasses of wine or cocktails daily helps to prevent coronary(冠状动脉)heart disease. Last week a report in the New England Journal of Medicine added strong new evidence in support of that theory. More important, the work provided the first solid indication of how alcohol works to protect the heart.
In the study, researchers from Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School compared the drinking habits of 340 men and women who had suffered recent heart attack with those of healthy people of the same age and sex. The scientists found that people who sip(小口喝)one to three drinks a day are about half as likely to suffer heart attacks as nondrinkers are. The apparent source of the protection: those who drank alcohol had higher blood levels of high-density lipoproteins(脂蛋白), the so-called good cholesterol(胆固醇), which is known to prevent heart disease.
As evidence has mounted, some doctors have begun recommending a daily drink for patients of heart diseases. But most physicians are not ready to recommend a regular happy hour for everyone. The risks of totally giving up alcohol are nothing compared with the dangers of too much alcohol, including high blood pressure, strokes and liver(肝脏)troubles—not to mention violent behavior and traffic accidents. Moreover, some studies suggest that even moderate drinking may increase the incidence of breast and colon(结肠)cancer. Until there is evidence that the benefits of a daily dose of alcohol outweigh the risks, most people won’t be able to take a doctor’s prescription to the neighborhood bar or liquor store.
【语篇概述】过去几十年研究表明, 适度饮酒能够预防冠心病。最近新英格兰医学期刊发现了新强有力证据来支持这个观点。
6. The medical article quoted(引证)in the first paragraph indicates(表明) . A. the way in which alcohol can treat the heart disease B. proper drink of alcohol can benefit the heart C. why alcoholic drinks are dangerous to one’s health
