Ten years ago, I used to be very fit. __小题1:__ I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days, I didn’t earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasn’t a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing.

__小题2:__ The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more.

There’s a lot of stress (压力) in my job. Perhaps that’s why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top. Then I had another glass, and then another. __ 小题3:__ I never used to smoke at all.

Two months ago, I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn’t believe it. “I’m too young.” I said.  Luckily it wasn’t very serious. I was in hospital a few days and they did a lot of tests. __小题4:__ He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven’t any time! __小题5:__

Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do that, I won’t earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just don’t know what I should do. What do you think?

题目分析:文章介绍了一开始,作者挣得少,活得很积极和健康。后来,作者换了一份高收入的工作,虽然生活质量提高了,但是却失去了业余时间和健康。作者很迷茫,不知道该选择哪种生活。这正是现代人的一种普遍存在的现象。

小题1:根据I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more. 可知这一部分想说我过去过着很健康的生活,所以应该填我骑自行车去上班,周末做很多运动,故选C。

小题2:根据The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch.可知这里想说然后,八年以前,我得到了一份更好的工作,故选A。

小题3:根据I never used to smoke at all.可知这里想说我也开始吸很多烟。故选E。

小题4:根据He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven’t any time!可知这里想说医生建议我停止吸烟,少吃点,故选G。
