  The human body naturally prevents attempt( 企 图 )to lose or gain  weight.Thus the best way to lower your weight is to do some exercise daily.Although scientists don’t agree exactly how this works to lower the“setpoint”,they do know that exercise helps your body work with you and not against you in at least the

  following ways:

  1.Exercise burns calories(卡路里):if you walk two miles every day, you use an extra 1400 calories a week—and lose about a pound in two weeks.

  2.Exercise helps to bum fat and build muscle:since muscle requires more calories than fat does,the more muscle you have,the faster you will bum calories.

  3.Finally exercise speeds up your metabolism(新陈代谢),not just while you’re exercising,but for several hours after exercise ends.

  A program of light-to-moderate exercise done for only a half-hour a day is enough to keep your“setpoint”lowered,and thus helps you lose  weight and keep it off.If you need to lose more than five pounds ,combine regular exercise with a moderate reduction in calories until you reach your goal(目标).

  40.Scientists don’t________.

  43.Which of the following is NOT true?

  A.A man of more muscles burns calories faster.B.Exercise speeds up your metabolism even after it.

  C.An hour and a halls exercise is not enough to keep your“setpoint”  lowered.

  When scientists came to test the Watrases’home in the countryside, they found out what was the matter.The house contained so much radon(氡)that living in it for a year was like being exposed(暴露)to 260, 000 chest X-rays.In the year the Watrases had spent there,they had increased their chances of getting lung cancer(癌症)by 13 or 14 percent.

  The next day the Watrases took down their Christmas tree,put their clothes in some bags and moved into a nearby hotel.“It was terrible,”  says Watras.The owner of the Limerick plant took charge of dealing with the
