A study says the UK is the third laziest (懒惰的) country in Europe. The study shows that 63% of people in the UK do not get enough exercise. A report last year said that not being active was the fourth leading reason for dying too early.
Being active helps you keep away from illness. So instead of watching the Olympics on TV, shouldn't we be going for a run? Why not play badminton or tennis, rather than sit on the sofa without moving? Short periods of exercise may not change your body much, however, if you keep up exercising, it must bring you both joy and health.
It's important to understand how much activity is needed to stay healthy. As an adult, you need to do two and a half hours of exercise each week. Luckily, a study shows that doing 10-minute activity every day also works. You are more likely to stay healthy if it is part of your everyday life, for example walking or riding a bike to work.
It is not just adults who need to take exercise. As soon as your children can walk, they should also be told to run and jump. The research shows the kids under five years old spend so much time in cars that they are at risk of being unhealthy or overweight (超重) before school age. Between the ages of 5 and 18, the research suggests an hour of exercise a day is needed. Exercise at this age helps develop strong bones and muscles (肌肉) and cuts the risk of being overweight. Also, the old are advised to do two-and-a-half hours of activity a week. This level can cut the risk of falling over.

答案：1 - 3 CDB
解析：
【解析】
1. 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“A study says the UK is the third laziest country in Europe.”可知，欧洲有两个国家比英国更懒，故C项正确。A项中“only reason”与原文“fourth leading reason”不符；B项“anything”表述过于绝对，原文仅提到锻炼能带来快乐和健康；D项与原文建议“instead of watching the Olympics on TV, shouldn't we be going for a run?”相悖。
2. 细节理解题。根据第四段“The research shows the kids under five years old spend so much time in cars that they are at risk of being unhealthy or overweight before school age.”可知，五岁以下的孩子如果运动过少，可能会变得不健康，故D项正确。A项是针对会走路的孩子的普遍建议，并非该研究针对五岁以下孩子的结论；B项“shouldn't take cars”表述错误，原文是说花太多时间坐车；C项是5到18岁孩子锻炼的好处，与题干不符。
3. 主旨大意题。文章分别介绍了成年人、五岁以下儿童、5至18岁青少年以及老年人所需的运动量和锻炼的好处，主旨是建议所有年龄段的人进行锻炼，故B项正确。A项“lose weight”只是锻炼的部分作用；C项“Eating healthily”文中未提及；D项仅为文章开头引入内容，并非主旨。
