Question

  There is an old saying (谅语) ：Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise (富有而有智慧) .

  It means that we should go to bed early and get up early the next morning. By doing this we will be in good health. And we'll also be rich and clever.

  It's true that our bodies need to have enough sleep to be healthy. Children should have a tenhour sleep every night. Those who do not have enough sleep can't do their work very well. They will not be clever and they may not get healthy in the future.

  The body needs exercise too. Walking running jumping riding bikes and playing games are all exercise. Exercise helps to keep the body strong and fit. It also helps the blood (血液) to move around inside the body. The blood takes food to all parts of the body. The head needs blood too. So exercise helps people think better.

(   ) 1. What does the underlined word "rise" mean?

   A. To do exercise. B. To get up.

   C. To stand up. D. To go up.

Answer 1

内容简介：这篇短文主要号召我们早睡早起，并介绍了这样做的好处。同时还说明了锻炼身体对我们的健康是非常重要的。

1. B根据文章第二段第一句"It means that we should go to bed early and get up early the next morning." 可知rise是"起床"的意思，与get up同义。故选 B.

2. C根据文章第三段第三句"Those who do not have enough sleep can't do their work very well."可知，睡眠不足的孩子做不好功课。故选C。

3. A. 根据文章最后一段第三句"Exercise helps to keep the body strong and fit."可知，锻炼身体有助于保持身体强壮和健康。故选A.

4. C C项的意思是"如果你身体里有足够的血液，那么你将是聪明的"。由常识可知血液多少与聪明与否没有关系，因而C项是错误的。其他三项在文中均有提及。

5. A根据文章最后一段可知"锻炼有助于人们更好地思考，因为锻炼有助于血液循环"，因而答案是A.
