Yu prbably cnsider calrie burning with training. Yu can get great calrie burning effects with the fllwing exercises.
Running
Running is ne f the best calrie burners ut there. An average persn can burn anywhere frm 500 t 1,000 calries in ne hur f running. Speed and pace are all factrs that can affect calrie burning. But running uses every muscle grup in the bdy, allwing yu t burn mre calries.
High Intensity Interval (高强度间歇运动) Training (HIIT)
If yu want intensity, HIIT is right fr yu. This physical exercise invlves wrking hard in intervals, then resting. Because yur heart rate will stay at a high level, yu’ll burn mre calries in less time. On average, a persn will burn 400 t 600 calries in 30 minutes.
Jumping rpe
This childhd activity can actually d wnders fr yur health. Jumping rpe is great fr strengthening the lwer and upper bdy while training yur balance and crdinatin (协调能力), because yur mind has t wrk while yu jump. Jumping rpe can burn 600 t 1,000 calries in an hur.
Swimming
Swimming is a lw-intensity frm f exercise that als uses muscle grups f yur bdy. In just 30 minutes f swimming, an average persn can burn 200 t 300 calries. Swimming als helps t shape bdy, cntrl bld pressure, and increase strength—all great reasns fr yu t jump int the water.
21. Which kind f exercise burns the mst calries in an hur?
A. Running.B. Swimming.
C. Jumping rpe.D. High Intensity Interval Training.
22. Wh may als be interested in the third exercise?

Despite the fact that burgers, chips and fries are knwn as sme f the mst unhealthy fd we can eat, they are still the mst ppular fd.
There are a few reasns behind that. First, junk fd is generally easy t get and take with yu. This cnvenience is a majr draw fr many, especially peple wh are always n the g. Restaurants like McDnald’s and KFC can be fund utside many schls and wrkplaces, prviding meals in under a minute.
Secndly, junk fd cntains a lt f added sugar and fat. This kind f fd causes ur brain t send ut certain chemicals, which prduce the feeling f relaxatin, pleasure and enjyment. That’s why such fd is called “cmfrt fd”.
Thirdly, ur ancestrs didn’t have such easy access t the huge variety f fd we cme acrss every day. They didn’t have the cnvenience f having fd as easily as we d. S they made it a habit t eat as much as they culd t survive and prtect themselves frm the hard natural cnditins. The cave mentality (心理) is passed dwn t us, which makes us believe that we can never have enugh fd that is high in sugar and fat, n matter hw crazily we eat.
Besides, when we are t wrried and tired t relax, ur bdy prduces crtisl (皮质醇), which increases the sugar cntent in the bld, s it can be used as energy t aid in fat and carbhydrate metablism (碳水化合物代谢). Additinally, it is als fund t increase hunger. That’s the reasn why when we’re thinking abut unpleasant things, we prefer fds that are high in sugar, fat and carbhydrate, that is t say unhealthy fd.
24. Why are McDnald’s and KFC mentined?
A. T shw they take up the best site.
B. T shw they prvide gd service.
C. T shw they are famus fr their taste.
D. T shw they make junk fd easy t get.
25. What des the authr want t tell us in Paragraph 4?
A. We need all kinds f fd.
B. Our ancestrs lived a hard life.
C. We are brn t eat mre than we need.
D. It is difficult fr us t change ur habits.
26. What is a cause f the increase f sugar cntent in ur bdy?
A. T much stress.B. A wish fr fd.
C. A fast metablic rate.D. Nt having enugh energy.
27. What is the text mainly abut?
A. Hw harmful junk fd is.
B. Why fast fd is s delicius.
C. Hw we can develp a healthy lifestyle.
D. Why we lve unhealthy fd s much.

Accrding t reprts, three-quarters f all crps arund the wrld depend n pllinating (授粉的) insects like bees and butterflies. By pllinating, pllinatrs enable the prductin f seeds. Withut them, crp farming can becme extremely difficult r cstly threatening fd supplies and prices glbally.
Research has shwn a rapid and cnsistent decline in pllinatr ppulatins. Average butterfly ppulatins have almst halved since 1991 and bee ppulatins in particular face a sharp decline. Given the wrld’s grwing dependence n these insects, we can nly expect the prblem t wrsen if n actin is taken.
Much has been written abut hw intensive farming practices the use f chemical pesticides () and pllutin are threatening the survival f these helpful insects. T add t the already critical situatin, glbal warming is cntributing significantly t the rapid disappearance f pllinatrs.
Climate change is a majr threat t pllinatrs, with rising temperatures and increasing frequency and intensity f extreme weather events affecting the fd surces and habitats, n which pllinatrs depend fr their survival.
Climate change als changes the timing and availability f lwering plants, leading t mismatches between pllinatrs and their fd surces. A study has fund that climate change has shifted plants’ blming t earlier times and caused certain plants t mve t higher areas, resulting in a decline in pllinatin.
Anther study has fund that climate change culd lead t a decline in the quality f nectar, which is the main fd surce fr many pllinatrs. As temperatures rise, the sugar cntent f nectar decreases, making it less nutritius fr pllinatrs. This leads t a decline in the health and reprductive success f pllinatrs, as well as a decline in the pllinatin f plants.
Needless t say, cutting glbal emissins is key. It’s essential that we cntinue t advcate fr emissin reductins. Frm cuntry-level t individual businesses, mre cncrete radmaps t net zer are a must.
We must at least minimize, if nt prevent, the usage f pesticides, since these chemicals are harmful t pllinatrs and can have a far-reaching effect n pllinatin as a whle.
32. What des paragraph 1 try t shw?
A. The influence f crp crises.
B. The imprtance f pllinatrs.
C. The serius challenges faced by humans.
D. The increasing difficulty f crp prductin.
33. Hw des the authr sund in paragraph 2?
A. Curius.B. Suspicius.C. Humrus.D. Anxius.
34. What d paragraphs 3-4 mainly talk abut?
A. Hw climate change has affected pllinatrs.
B. Causes f the decline in pllinatr ppulatins.
C. The imprtance f pllinatrs t the ecsystem.
D. Why chemical pesticides are harmful t pllinatrs.
