【回答】

1.C  anywhere“無論何處”，用於否定句或疑問句中；somewhere“在某處”，用在肯定句中；everywhere“到處，處處”，用於肯定句；nowhere“任何地方都不”，表示否定的含義。由下文“沿着加利福尼亞海岸，……紐約中心公園，順着小鎮安靜的街道或在體育館，有些人甚至在起居室跑步”可知，人們到處跑步。故選C。

2. B  among“在……中”，表示在三者或三者以上的事物當中；through“穿過”；with“與……一起，帶有”；on“在……上面”。只有through可與Central Park in New York搭配，意爲“穿過紐約中心公園”。

3. D 主語是some people，因此用形容詞*物主代詞their，意爲“他們的”。句意：一些人甚至在他們的起居室裏跑步。

4. D   由第一句“過去跑步不這麼受歡迎”及In the 1960s可知下文描寫過去人們常做的事。used to do 意爲 “過去常常做”， 表示過去經常做某事而現在不做了,只用於一般過去時；下一句“Hey, what’s the hurry for？”是問句，因此used to後跟ask。

5. B   say to oneself意爲“自言自語，心裏想”，爲固定短語，故選B。

6. A  change“改變”；stop“停止”；work“工作”；do“做”。由上文“如果過去女士跑，她們也許被嘲笑”和下文“所有年齡的男女都喜歡跑步”可知，今天所有的這些已經改變。故選A。

7. D  由第一段中…you can see Americans running — men and women, young and old．(……你可以看到美國人在跑步——男的、女的，少的、老的。)可知，此處句意爲“所有年齡段的男女都喜歡跑步”。

8. A   come from“來自”；look for“尋找”；care for“關心”；think of“考慮”。句意：醫生說在美國許多健康問題來自這些壞習慣。故選A。

9. D  此處exercise作不可數名詞，意爲“鍛鍊”，不能用few和many修飾，排除A、B兩項；由上文“醫生說在美國許多健康問題來自這些壞習慣”可知，此處表示鍛鍊少，故用take little exercise。

10. C  how“怎樣”；where“哪裏”；because“因爲”；until“直到……爲止”。後句“它有助於強壯心髒和肺”是前句“跑步是一項好運動”的原因，因此用because引導原因狀語從句。
