For a while, my neighborhood was taken ever by an army of joggers. They were there all the time: early morning, noon, and evening. There were little old ladies in gray sweats, young couples in Adidas shoes, middle-aged men with red faces. “Come on!” My friend Alex encouraged me to join him as he jogged by my house every evening. “You’ll feel great.”
Well, I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could. So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more. Based on my experience, jogging is the most overvalued form of exercise around, and judging from the number of the people who left our neighborhood jogging army, I’m not alone in my opinion.
First of all, jogging is very hard on the body. Your legs and feet need a real pounding（追击）running down a road for two or three miles. I developed foot, leg, and back problems. Then I read about a nationally famous jogger who died of a heart attack while jogging, and I had something else to worry about. Jogging doesn’t kill hundreds of people, but if you have any physical weaknesses, jogging will surely bring them out, as they did with me.
Secondly, I got no enjoyment out of jogging. Putting one foot in front of the other for forty-five minutes isn’t my idea of fun. Jogging is also a lonely pastime. Some joggers say, “I love being out there with just my thoughts” Well, my thoughts began to bore me, and most of them were on how much my legs hurt.
And how could I enjoy something that brought me pain? And that wasn’t just the first week: it was practically every day for two months. I never got past the pain level, and pain isn’t fun. What a cruel way to do it! So many other exercises, including walking, lead to almost the same results painlessly, so why jog?
I don’t jog any more, and I don’t think I ever will. I’m walking two miles three times a week at a fast pace, and that feels good. I bicycle to work when the weather is good. I’m getting exercise, and I’m enjoying it at the same time. I could never say the same for jogging, and I’ve found a lot of better ways to stay in shape.

(答案→)A 解析：【小题1】A 细节题。根据文章第一段1,2行my neighborhood was taken ever by an army of joggers. They were there all the time: early morning, noon, and evening.说明社区里慢跑的人特别多，故A正确。【小题2】D 推理题。根据本句if you have any physical weaknesses, jogging will surely bring them out, as they did with me.说明慢跑能把你的physical weaknesses带出来，故D正确。【小题3】A 推理题。根据第二段1,2行I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could. So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more.说明在开始的时候作者认真的对待慢跑，想试着准备跑两个月，故A正确。【小题4】.Ｂ推理题。根据3,4两段。第三段第一行First of all, jogging is very hard on the body. 和第四段第一行Secondly, I got no enjoyment out of jogging说明他认为慢跑对身体有害也没有快乐，故B正确。【小题5】A 总结归纳题。根据文章内容可知一些人认为慢跑很好，而像作者这样的人却认为慢跑没有意义，故并不是所有的人都喜欢慢跑，故A正确。
