If you’re training for a marathon , a proper plan for water intake (攝入) is important. Of course, there’s the risk of dehydration (脫水). But athletes now know they can also get into trouble by drinking too much. Too much water intake can lower levels of sodium (鈉) in the blood . The death of a 28-year-old woman following the Boston Marathon caught the attention of many runners and led to new research.

Experts advise long distance runners to replace the liquids they sweat out. Their goal is to try to keep someone from not getting dehydrated by more than 2 percent of their body weight.

One technique for deciding how much water you need is to get the exact numbers. Runners have to weight themselves before and after a run to determine how much water they’ve lost. If their weight drops by more than 2 percent, they have not drunk enough water.

Hyponatremia occurs when runners drink so much water that blood salt levels drop off. A study published last year tested 488 runners who completed the Boston Marathon and found 13 percent of them had dangerously low blood salt levels. The first sign that runners may notice is slightly swelling in the hands. They can’t get their rings off, and then they might feel sick. They may not remember where they are. In fact, most runners get enough salt to get back to normal levels by eating just one meal after a run. Contrary to the old advice that runners should drink as much as they can to prevent dehydration , the new research has shown that the body is a remarkable machine that actually tells you via thirst when you need water .

56. The author of this passage is primarily concerned with            .

 A. the signs and treatment for dehydration

 B. the long distance runners who need help

 C. how to manage water intake during a marathon

 D. a 28-year-old woman who died after a Boston Marathon

57. Why do runners have to weigh themselves before and after a run ?

 A. They can improve their performance in a run.

 B. They can learn how much salt there is in the blood.

 C. They can know the quantity of water they’ve lost during a run.

 D. They can decide what kind of water they should take during a run.

58. What conclusion can we draw from the passage ?

 A. Taking much salt during a run can avoid selling in the body.

 B. Either too much or too little of water intake is harmful.

 C. A rich meal is helpful to our performance in a run.

 D. We should take enough salt during a run.

59．According the passage, which of the following statements is correct ?

 A. Too much water intake→blood sodium levels ↓→dehydration.

 B. Too much water intake→blood salt levels ↓→hyponatremia .

 C. No water intake→blood sodium levels↑→hyponatremia .

 D. No water intake →blood salt levels ↓→hyponatrenmia .

His eyes nearly in tears from the crush of fellow travelers at Guangzhou's train station, Hong Tao said things were much better on Sunday, after days of waiting for a train to his home in Hubei province.

"I think it's fine today, and everything is going smoothly," the 28-year-old said. "I thought it would be really crowded but it has turned out to be OK."

Chinese authorities say they expect 1.3 million people to travel out of Guangzhou's train station over the next few days, as they rush to get home by Wednesday, the eve of Lunar New Year.

Hong's optimism may have been helped by the blue skies that emerged over Guangzhou on Sunday for the first time in a week.

Last week, a rare winter storm paralyzed China's transportation system as millions tried to get home to celebrate the holiday — the only chance for many migrant workers to see their families all year.

China's state-run Xinhua news agency said Friday that 95 percent of rail traffic had "returned to normal." But Guangzhou's train station remained packed with a backlog of hundreds of thousands of travelers hoping to get home for the holiday.

A young woman was stepped on in a stampede (人群蜂擁) at the train station Friday, and later died of her injuries, according to Xinhua. Video of the situation on Friday showed crowds of people screaming, elbowing each other, in some cases sobbing and collapsing in the rush to get a slot (狹縫，窄孔) on a train.

China Sunday announced it has organized over 300,000 People's Liberation Army forces to southern China in what it described as a "war on winter weather".

The government also announced a $700 million plan to help farmers whose crops have been destroyed.

6. How many days is it from the day this article was made to the Lunar New Year?

A. Two days.         B. Three days.               C. Four days.         D. Five days.

7. What can we know about the weather condition of last week in Guangzhou?

A. Sunny with blue sky.               B. Rainy for a whole week.

C. Heavily snowy.                       D. Rainy first and snowy now.

8. Why are there so many passengers in Guangzhou’s train station?

A. Because the heavy snow stopped the passengers from leaving the station.

B. Because the passengers didn’t hope to leave the station right now.

C. Because the passengers hoped to leave for their hometown.

D. Because the holiday was coming near.

9. Where is Hong Tao from?

A. Shandong province.                B. Hubei province.

C. Guandong province.                      D. Not mentioned.

10. What can we infer from the passage?

A. On Friday, a young man was dead because of crowds’ elbowing, screaming.

B. China’s Government have arranged the PLA forces to help.

C. The government of China have offered money to help farmers enjoy the new year.

D. Many crops have been destroyed by the crowds of people.
