What would it take to persuade you to exercise? A desire to lose weight or improve your figure? To keep you away from diseases? To live to a healthy of age? You’d think any of those reasons would be enough to get Americans exercising. Yet a vast majority of Americans have thus far failed to swallow the “exercise pill”.

Now a research by psychologists strongly suggests it’s time to think of current well-being (幸福) and happiness as motivators(动机；动力) for exercise instead of future health, weight loss and body image.

Dr. Segar, one of the researchers, believes that immediate rewards are more motivating than distant ones. “People who say they exercise for the quality of life exercise more over the course of a year than those who say they value exercise for its health benefits,” he said.

Other studies have shown that what keeps people moving depends on age, sex and life circumstances. For those of college age, physical attractiveness typically heads the lists of reasons to begin exercising, although what keeps them going seems to be the stress relief that a regular exercise program provides. The elderly, on the other hand, may get started because of health concerns. But often what keeps them exercising are the friendships and sense of community that may otherwise be missing from their lives. Improving daily well-being is the most influential factor for women. Men indicate they are motivated by more distant health benefits, but this may be because men feel less comfortable discussing their mental health needs.

“Exercise should be encouraged but the emphasis on weight loss, disease prevention and healthy aging should be reduced,” Dr. Segar concluded.

“Exercise can make people feel more energetic, less stressed and, yes, happier.”

D. Mark, who is suffering from a serious illness.

34. According to Paragraph 4, which group of people tends to exercise for friendship?

A. Men. B. Women C. The elderly. D. College students. 35. What is the author mainly arguing in the passage? A. Immediate rewards of exercise should be emphasized. B. Distant benefits should be the motivators for exercise. C. Feeling relaxed is more important than future health. D. Men and women take exercise for different purposes. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

How do you stay true to yourself when you’re surrounded by friends and / or family that have an opinion on everything you do? It is not easy! 36 Here are 4 tips which can help you live a dynamic life. 37

Stay true to yourself by listening to the only opinions that really matter—your own and those from people who believe in and encourage you. Deep down you know yourself better than anybody else. Don’t fear people

38 The reason why most people don’t take risks, or live on the edge is the fear of what others might think of them. If you want to live the life you truly deserve, you must give up the need to be liked by everybody. Value yourself and your choices

When you do, others will too. Own the choices you make in your life. 39 When you believe in yourself, in time, others will believe in you too. Show confidence in your choices and what you stand for whether others agree or not. Focus on appreciation

No matter what the circumstances are, there is always something to be
