 Exercise, everyone advises! But immediately, when you try, you run into trouble. There is so much contradictory, sometimes in correct advice about exercising that become confused. Test yourself on the following true-false quiz. It tells you what you need to know.

  1.To lose weight you should always 〝work up a good sweat" when exercising.

  False. Sweating only lowers body temperature to prevent overheating; it does not help you reduce weight. You may weight less immediately after a workout, but this is due to water loss. Once you replace the liquid, you replace the weight.

  2.You burn more calories jogging one mile than walking the same distance.

  False. You use, the same amount of energy whether you walk or jog the mile, since in both cases you are moving the same weight the same distance. The speed doesn't matter. Of course, if you jog rather than walk for 30 minutes, you'll cover more distance, and therefore burn more calories.

  3.If your breathing doesn't return to normal within minutes after you finish exercising, you've exercised too much.

  True. Five minutes or so after exercising, your breathing should be normal, your heart shouldn't pounding, and you shouldn’t exhausted. Beneficial exercise is not too difficult, unpleasant, and exhausting; it is enjoyable and refresh.

  4.Walking is one of the best exercises.

  True. Walking helps circulation of blood throughout the body, and thus has a direct effect on your overall feeling of health.

Climate, more than any other single factor, determines the distribution of life on earth. Climatic boundaries establish the limits which organisms can survive. Plants, even more than animals, must be well adapted to climate in order to survive. They cannot move about or take shelter but must be equipped to endure whatever weather conditions are likely to occur. In the harsh conditions of the tundra, for example, low growing mosses, lichens, and a few flowering plants all hug the ground for shelter from icy winds.

  Animal, despite their ability to move about and find shelter, are just as much influenced by climate as plants are. Creatures such as the camel and the penguin are so highly specialized that they have an extremely limited distribution. Others, such as bears are flexible enough to adapt to a broad range of climates. Oceandwelling organisms are just as sensitive to climatic changes--in this case temperature and salinity--as land animals. Reef corals can survive only in clear warm seawater. Certain foraminifers are so sensitive to changes in their environment that their presence can be taken as an index of sea temperature. Human beings are among the least specialized of all animals and can live almost anywhere. Their clothes and their homes act as a sort of 〝miniature climate" that can be taken with them everywhere.

According to the passage, human beings can survive almost everywhere on earth because ____.(  )

If women are mercilessly exploited (剥削) year after year, they are only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe(衣柜)packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.

  Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace lothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; necklines are lowered or raised, and so on.

  No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability(耐用). They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.

  When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashion of women's clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be treated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and feasibility? That's for you to decide.
