[词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句中的“Itseemsthatactivitiesthatincreaseheatshockproteinsmayhelptoimprovebloodsugarcontrolandofferanalternativetoexercise”可知，此处是对第二段中的“theseeffects”的解释，又结合语境可推知，画线词所在句表示尽管对这些影响的研究仍处于初级阶段，但有一个合理的解释来说明这个问题。故选B。]6．WhichofthefollowingisrightabouttheresearchbytheUK'steam?A．Cyclingmadenodifferencetotheparticipants'bloodsugarlevels.B．Theparticipants'bloodsugarlevelspeakedaftersoakingduringtheresearch.C．14leanand14overweightmenwereinvolvedintheresearch.D．The24hourtrackingwascarriedoutaftertheonehouractivities.D [细节理解题。根据第五段中的“bothgroupswerebetterabletocontroltheirbloodsugarlevelsinthe24hoursfollowingtheactivities”可知，两组实验对象在进行相应的1小时的活动后，都被跟踪调查了24小时。故选D。]7．Howshouldscientistsimprovethisstudy?A．Byextendingthestudyperiod.B．Bychangingtheresearchmethod.C．Byincreasingthenumberofthesubjectsinvestigated.D．Byincludingmorescientistsintheresearch.C [推理判断题。根据第七段中的“Forstarters，theexperimentonlyincluded\nmen...Italsoonlyincluded14volunteers，whichisanextremelysmallsamplesize”可知，该实验的主要局限性是实验对象的人数太少，且覆盖面不全，由此可推知，可以通过增加实验对象的数量来改善该研究。故选C。]8．Whichofthefollowingbestexpressestheauthor'smainpointofview?A．Whenyoucatchafeveryouget“passiveheating”．B．Youneedeitherahotbathorregularexercisetokeephealthy.C．Itisastudyofsignificanceinspiteofsomeimperfections.D．Passiveheatingcanraiselevelsofheatshockproteins.C
