By 1938, Europe had been experiencing an increased number of attacks on Jews. With no end in sight, Jewish refugee(難民) agencies requested the British government to allow them to bring in only Jewish children under 17 years of age. This was to be only temporary, until the situation in their home countries was improved.
Kindertransport, meaning “children transport” in German, was then born. Children from Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland and other Nazi-occupied regions were transported to the United Kingdom. There they were either placed with other families or in hostels. Later, it was found that many of these children were the only survivors of their families. Nicholas Winton was among those people who helped to save Jewish children. He managed to rescue 669 children from Czechoslovakia and bring them safely to England. In 1938 around Christmas, 29-year-old Nicky was about to leave for a skiing holiday. Suddenly, Martin Blake, one of his good friends, contacted (聯(lián)絡(luò)) him from Czechoslovakia, asking him to travel there to help political refugees on the run from the Nazis. And Nicholas agreed.
Nicky spent his entire holiday of 3 weeks in the capital city of Prague where he saw the situation first-hand. Once back in England, he immediately started organizing the evacuation(撤離) of children from the Czech region. From advertising for the necessary permits, Nicky worked tirelessly. By August 1939, 669 children had been helped by Nicky and his friends. Haplessly, the last group of children due to leave Prague in the beginning of September could not do so— World War Ⅱ broke out, and swallowed them up.
Nicky did not discuss his particular task with his wife, Grete. It was only when she found a scrapbook in 1988, with names of the rescued children, their (lost) parents and the foster families that had taken them in, that his heroism came to light. Nicky has received several awards in Britain and the Czech Republic.

For years, experts have been encouraging people to exercise, using steps as simple as taking the stairs instead of a lift and walking to work, where possible. A recent study bolsters this advice — it shows that frequent active exercise throughout the day can have great health benefits.
The study, published in the magazine Preventive Medicine, found that just 2 minutes of stair-climbing several times a day can lower total cholesterol(膽固醇), raise HDL (“good”) cholesterol and improve the heartbeat in young women who do not have much activity during the day.“such improvements may have important effects on the health of women, since, like cigarette smoking, poor fitness have been shown to be a high risk for heart disease and death in women,”said Dr.Colin Boreham with the University of Ulster in Belfast, Ireland and the fellow researchers of this study group. Furthermore, improvements in total cholesterol levels achieved in the study could cut the rate of heart disease in women by a third, they noted.
The team of researchers from Britain studied 12 women between 18-22 years old, before and after the exercise program. The women used a public staircase for about 2 minutes a day for 5 days a week. Compared with a group of 10 women who did not take part in the stair-climbing program, the women who climbed stairs showed marked improvements in health and fitness levels after 7 weeks. However, they did not show any signs of weight loss.“A short-term stair-climbing program can give great health benefits to young women. Stair-climbing may be a particularly suitable way of combining exercise with an individual’s daily lifestyle,”they pointed out.
Experts advise visiting your doctor before beginning a new exercise program.

B. enabling women to take exercise
C. preventing women from having heart disease
D. helping women to lose weight
3.What is the main subject of the second and third paragraphs?
A. Causes of heart disease in young women.
B. Research findings of a stair-climbing program
C. Major contents of the magazine Preventive Medicine.

4.What would be the best title for the text?

Cooking Kills Four Million People a Year
Polluted airborne particles(大氣懸浮顆粒)kill 7 million people a year,reports the World Health Organization.
That news may not come as a surprise to anyone who has seen images of chimneys in Beijing,Delhi or Mexico.But those factories—or even the jammed roadways of modern cities—are not the biggest killer.Each year,4.3 million people die earlier than they should because of polluted air inside their homes,says the WHO.
What’s causing the air inside people’s homes to be so poisonous that it kills around 11,000 people a day?Stoves.“Having an open fire in your kitchen is like burning 400 cigarettes an hour.” says Kirk Smith,a professor at the University of California at Berkeley,whose research suggests that household air pollution from cooking killed between 3.5 million and 4 million people in 2013.
Not all stoves cause this kind of harm.The ones Smith’s talking about are those that the 3 billion people in the developing world use for heat and cooking,which burn solid fuels such as wood,coal,or crop waste instead of gas.The smoke from those fires produces harmful fine particles and carbon monoxide into homes.Poor ventilation then prevents that smoke from escaping,raising fine particle levels 100 times higher than the limits that the WHO considers acceptable.
Breathing this air eventually causes a lot of diseases:more than a third of the 4.3 million die of a stroke,while a quarter die of heart disease.And around one-third of annual lung disease deaths worldwide are due to waste from coal stoves.
Exposure tends to be extremely harmful for the people who spend the most time around the fire—usually women and young children.In fact,the WHO reports that household air pollution almost doubles the risk for childhood lung disease.
1.According to Kirk Smith’s research, .
A.factories are the biggest killer worldwide nowadays
B.burning 400 cigarettes an hour is extremely dangerous
C.household air pollution from cooking is surprisingly harmful
D.4.3 million people die earlier each year than they should
2.What should be the deadly killer in a household kitchen?
A.Solid fuels. B.Coal stoves.
C.Poor gas. D.Cooking smoke.
3.The underlined word “ventilation” in Paragraph 4 probably means .
A.airing B.cooking
C.burning D.cooling
4.The author intends to tell people .
A.how to avoid polluted air in their homes
B.to stop cooking in the household kitchen
C.to guard against household pollution from cooking
D.how to prevent childhood lung diseases in household
