Exercise Can Replace Insulin for Elderly Diabetics

Most old people with so-called type Ⅱ diabetes could stop taking insulin if they would do brisk exercise
for 30 minutes just three times a week,according to new medical research results reported in the Copenhagen
newspaper Berlingske Tidende on Monday.
Results from tests conducted on diabetics at the Copenhagen Central Hospital Rigshospitalet's Center
for Muscle Research showed that physical exercise can boost the body's ability to utilise insulin by 30
percent,the newspaper reported.
This is equal to the effect most elderly diabetics get from their insulin medication today,it said.
Researchers had a group of non-diabetic men and a group of men with type Ⅱ,all more than 60 years of
age,exercise on bicycles six times a week for three months.After the three months the doctors measured
how much sugar the test subjects'muscles could utilise as a measure for how well their insulin worked.
Associate Professor Dr. Flemming Dela of the Muscle Research Center said the tests demonstrated that
the exercising diabetics had just as high insulin utilisation as the healthy non-exercising persons.
"This means that the insulin works just as well for both groups.Physical exercise cannot cure people of
diabetes,but it can eliminate almost all their symptoms.At the same time it can put off the point at which
they have to begin taking insulin or perhaps completely avoid insulin treatment,"Dela was quoted as saying.
Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas,controlling sugar in the body and used against diabetes.
Dela said that to achieve the desired effect diabetics need only exercise to the point where they begin to
work up a sweat,but that the activity has to be maintained since it wears off after five days without sufficient
exercise.
Most diabetics realise that they have to watch their diet while remaining unaware of the importance of
exercise,Dela added.

选项 Physical exercise may increase the body ability to utilise insulin by___________.
A:70 percent
B:30 percent
C:60 percent
D:only a few percent

答案B

解析由文章第一段中,"Most old people with so-called type Ⅱdiabetes could stop taking insulin if they would do brisk exercise for 30 minutes just three times a week",可知选C。
由文章第二段中“…physical exercise can boost the body' s ability to utilise insulin by 30 percent",可知体育锻炼能将身体利用胰岛素的能力提高30%,故选B。
由文章第四段中“Researchers had a group of non-diabetic men and a group of men with type Ⅱ ,all more than 60 years of age",可知选D。
由文章倒数第二段中“Dela said that to achieve the desired effect diabetics need only exer-cise to the point where they begin to work up a sweat.”可知,体育锻炼只要达到出汗的程度就能 起作用,故选A。
由文章最后一段中“Most diabetics realise that they have to watch their diet while remaining unaware of the importance of exercise.”可知,大多数糖尿病患者知道必须注意饮食,但却并不知 道体育锻炼的重要性,故选C。第5部分:补全短文
