Recently, over 30 million Americans of both sexes and all ages have shown great interest in walking. They have a strong desire to keep fit. By nature, Americans are enthusiastic and energetic about hobbies or pastimes. As a result, there are walkers’ clubs to join in and many books and magazines to read about walking.
    Walking is probably the most overlooked way to physical fitness. Like other exercises, it can help control weight, strengthen the heart and lungs, ease stress and build up energy. Unlike many exercises, walking is simple, easy and cheap.
    Middle-aged men suffer from heart disease, the nation’s number one killer. Thus, they are strongly interested in walking. In fact, many doctors encourage their patients to become more physically active. It is interesting to note that the rate of heart disease began to decrease between 1992 and 1994 and it is still decreasing.
    Remember that it is possible to overdo anything, even walking. Many confused walkers overdo and finally suffer from ankle and foot damage. Be careful not to overexert yourself, especially in hot weather.

D、Americans of both sexes and all ages.

答案 D

解析 判断题+排除法。本文介绍美国“暴走族”社会现象。听录音之前,通过浏览选项可知,本题问的是多少人或是怎样的人。文章首句很关键:Recently, over 30 million Americans of both sexes and all ages have shown great interest in walking.选项A和B未包括女性,选项C错在逻辑上,尽管美国人天生对hobbies or pastimes表现出精力充沛,但是不能反过来就认为,精力充沛的美国人就喜欢“暴走”(walking)。选项D才符合题意。
