The children were surveyed between 2003 and 2007.The researchers defined adequate physical activity as at least an hour of exercise outside of gym class at least five days a week. Children who spent three or more hours a day watching TV，playing computer games, or chatting with friends—aside from time in school or time spent doing homework—were classified as sedentary.The researchers found only one quarter of the boys and 15 percent of the girls were getting enough exercise by these definitions. A quarter of boys and nearly 30 percent of girls were sedentary and didn't get enough exercise with girls less active than boys in every country aside from Zambia.Uruguay had the highest percentage of active boys, at 42 percent, while Zambia had the lowest, at 8 percent. Girls from India were the most active, with 37 percent meeting exercise recommendation, while girls from Egypt were the least active, with just 4 percent getting adequate exercise. Children in Myanmar were the least sedentary, with 13 percent of boys and 8 percent of girls classified as sedentary. The most sedentary nations were St. Lucia and the Cayman Islands, with 58 percent of boys and 64 percent of girls spending at least three hours a day in sedentary activities.People show deep concern for kids' lack of physical activity in various nations. Why do they have a low level of physical activity? Guthold speculated(推测)that urbanization(都市化) could be a factor as well as access to cars and TVs.11．If you are sedentary, you________．A．are a diligent student spending much time doing homeworkB．have at least an hour of exercise outdoors every dayC．like watching TV and playing computer gamesD．spend a lot of time sitting down and not moving12．Which statement is TRUE about the finding of the study, led by Regina Guthold?A．Most children around the world don't meet the exercise recommendation.B．Girls in every country are no more active than boys.C．Children in rich countries relatively get less physical activities.D．Only 4 percent of the girls from Egypt are not active in exercise.13．Which could be the best title of the passage?A．American children are addicted to TVs and computersB．Nearly one third of children globally are couch potatoesC．Effects of physical activities on healthD．Unimaginable standard of physical health14．What would the writer be most likely to discuss in detail in the following paragraphs?A．The suitable amount of physical activities for students.B．Some of the factors for the popularity of cars and TVs among the kids.C．The reasons behind the lack of physical activities.D．The ways to make the most of physical activities.BOur lives were supposed to be more flexible and family­friendly thanks to the technology at our fingertips. But in this age of BlackBerrys, recession pressures, working at home after hours and on weekends, family time may not be working out the way we thought.Busy parents who expected more time with the kids are finding that more work hours at home don't necessarily translate into quality time with them.A new generation of parents need to discover the meaning of “quality time”，researchers say. “Personally, just given the life I lead, I think there is something to this idea of quality time—spending productive time with children vs. just being around，” says Peter Brandon, a professor at Carleton College. He says engaging or interacting with a child in activities such as reading or playing counts as quality time rather than “passive monitoring”， such as washing the dishes while the child is watching TV.“This_time_with_children_pays_off，” Brandon says. He notes that good parent­child relationships result in ch ildren being happier and more successful, including at school.As parents struggle to be more available to their kids, new research on work and family schedules to be presented Friday at the meeting in Dallas includes a study that shows parents' availability is on the decline because more parents are in the workforce. Although parents today may be spending more time on child care, they are less available overall.Working parents who spend less time with their children should try to make sure the time they do spend is communicating with them, vs. doing the dishes or spendingmore time on themselves, Brandon says “The trade­off is not necessarily taking away time from your kid，” he says, “You're taking away time from other things.”15．The first paragraph mainly intends to tell us that ________．A．technology lets parents work at homeB．parents are satisfied with their workC．technology makes our lives much easierD．the family time is not always satisfying16．We can learn from the third paragraph that ________．A．some families are not experiencing quality timeB．it's enough for parents to stay with their childrenC．parents enjoy eng aging in work­at­home activitiesD．working hours at home can transform into quality time17．According to Brandon, the quality time means ________．A．just being around with childrenB．work time is separate from family timeC．spending interactive time with childrenD．letting the children do whatever they want to do18．The underlined sentence “This time with children pays off” means________．A．the time with children is of little valueB．the time with children costs quite a lotC．the time with children leads to good resultD．the time with children has a bad effect on themⅢ.完成句子19．As my secretary, your duty ____________ filing the papers and answering the calls.
