参考答案B

解析:【听力原文】
[23] Every morning, Tony Diamond goes to a local park for an hour of fast walking. Then he runs for another hour. He also goes to a gym two or three times a week for muscle training. The retired navy captain won three medals at the 2015 National Senior Games in the road race and the race walk in his age group,85 to 89.
"My current age is 86 years old and my fitness age is 44," he says. "I think I have such a good number because I did a lot of exercise during my life."
Helen White, a versatile athlete who won a silver medal in pickle ball at the 2013 National Senior Games,
plays basketball and also teaches the sport to senior groups.
"I'm 62 years old and my fitness result showed that I was 32 years," she says. [24] "It really wasn't until I turned 50 that I decided to become much more serious and focused about play, and just make sure it is a daily part of my life."
White and Diamond are among some 5,000 competitors in the National Senior Games, a competition for athletes over 50 that was recently held in Minnesota, who took part in the study on fitness age.
The study, led by Dr. Pamela Peeke of the University of Maryland, found that older athletes' fitness age is
more than 20 years younger than their real age.
"You simply input very straightforward data," said Peeke, explaining how the study was conducted. "We ask you questions: your age, height, weight, how much you work out, your waist size, heart rate, blood pressure, and it goes on. Then you press a button, you find out what your actual fitness age is."
[25] "This kind of testing, an assessment of fitness age, is actually very. valid and it helps us understand the benefits of being fit and healthy," she added.
Peeke, a board member of the organization that runs the National Senior Games, says many of the competitors didn't start training until later in life.
"It doesn't matter how old you are," she said. "20, 25, 30...who cares, all of us can lower our fitness age by staying right on top of it, taking good care of ourselves, especially physical activity."
Peeke says it is never too early or too late to start reaping the benefits of exercise.
What does Tony Diamond's daily exercise consist of?
【解题思路】四项都是名词性短语，且前三项均描述具体的运动，第四项描述具体比赛。本题考查的内容应该是关于运动的，听录音时应将重点放在四项的关键信息上(jogging，fast walking，running，muscle training，road race，race walk)。
【解析】讲话一开始就说明了托尼 ·戴蒙德每天的锻炼内容：“每天早晨，托尼．戴蒙德都到当地的公园快走一个小时，然后再跑步一个小时。”因此可以得出A项错误，B项为正确答案。原文还说他每星期还去两到三次健身房进行肌肉训练，因此C项错误；D项“参加公路赛跑和竞走比赛”并不属于托尼．戴蒙德每日的运动项目，也应排除。

单选题根据下面资料，回答题
Many of the aids which are advertised as liberating the modern woman tend to have the opposite effect, because they simply change the nature of work instead of eliminating it. Machines have a certain novelty value, like toys for adults. It is 26 less tiring to put clothes in a washing machine, but the time saved does not really 27 too much: the machine has to be watched, the clothes have to be carefully sorted first, stains 28 by hand, buttons pushed and water changed, clothes taken out, aired and ironed.
It would be more liberating to pack it all off to a 29 and not necessarily more expensive, since no capital investment is required. Similarly, if you really want to save time you do not make cakes with an electric mixer, you buy one in a shop. If one compares the image of domesticated woman fostered by the women's magazines with the goods advertised by those periodicals, advertising which finances them, One realizes how useful a projected image can be in commerce. A careful 30 has to be struck: if you show a labor-saving gadget, follow it up with a 31 recipe on the next page; on no account hint at the notion that a woman could get herself a job, but instead foster her sense of her own usefulness,32 the creative aspect of her function as a housewife. So we get cake mixes where the cook simply adds an egg herself, to produce "that lovely home-baked 33 the family love", and knitting patterns that can be made by hand, or worse still, on knitting machines, which became a tremendous vogue when they were first 34 (difficult to know who would wear all those rapidly produced sweaters, which lacked the advantages of hand-made woolens). Automatic cookers are advertised by pictures of pretty young mothers taking their children to the park, not by 35 women presetting the dinner before catching a bus to the office.
