Background information
Health & fitness in US
Health and fitness are big businesses in the
US. Nationwide vitamin stores like GNC
(General Nutrition Center) and Vitamin World
can be found at malls and shopping centers.
Exercise and fitness clubs like Bally Total
Fitness and 24-Hour Fitness (which is open
24 hours a day) have hundreds of locations in
the US, with tens of thousands of members
paying fifty to a hundred dollars or more per
month.

Unit 2
Every few months, a new
fitness craze will come along.
The Atkins Diet, Noni juice,
and the South Beach Diet are
just a few recent ones. You
can also find hundreds of
exercise videos for sale,
teaching Yoga, Tai-chi, Pilates,
aerobic exercise and more.
Unfortunately, even with all
this interest in health and
fitness, obesity is becoming
more common, even in children.

Iron and the Effects of Exercise
Para. 1 Sports medicine experts have
observed for years that endurance athletes,
particularly females, frequently have iron
deficiencies. Now a new study by a team of
Purdue University researchers suggests
that even moderate exercise may lead to
reduced iron in the blood of women.

Book 3
Unit 2
III. Passage A
Chinese
Para. 2 “We found that women who were
normally inactive and then started a
program of moderate exercise showed
evidence of iron loss,” says Roseanne M.
Lyle, associate professor at Purdue. Her
study of 62 formerly inactive women who
began exercising three times a week for six
months was published in the journal
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise.

Paras. 3-4a “Women who consumed
additional meat or took iron supplements were
able to bounce back,” she notes. “But the new
exercisers who followed their normal diet
showed a decrease in iron levels.”
上一页
Iron deficiency is very common among
women in general, affecting one in four female
teenagers and one in five women aged 18 to 45,
respectively. But the ratio is even greater
among active women, affecting up to 80
percent of female endurance athletes. (To be
continued)

Unit 2
III. Passage A
Chinese
Para. 4b This means, Lyle says, that “too
many women ignore the amount of iron they
take in”. Women of child-bearing age are at
greatest risk, since their monthly bleeding is a
major source of iron loss. Plus, many healthconscious women increase their risk by
rejecting red meat, which contains the most
easily absorbed form of iron. And because
women often restrict their diet in an effort to
control weight, they may not consume enough
iron-rich food, and are liable to experience a
deficiency.

Unit 2
III. Passage A
Chinese
Para. 5 “The average woman takes in only
two thirds of the recommended daily
allowance for iron,” notes another expert.
“For a woman who already has a poor iron
status, any additional iron loss from
exercise may be enough to tip her over the
edge into a more serious deficiency,” notes
the expert.

Book 3
Unit 2
III. Passage A
Chinese
Para. 6 Exercise can result in iron loss
through a variety of mechanisms. Some
iron is lost in sweat, and, for unknown
reasons, intense endurance exercise is
sometimes associated with bleeding of the
digestive system. Athletes in high-impact
sports such as running may also lose iron
through a phenomenon where small blood
vessels in the feet leak blood.

Unit 2
III. Passage A
Chinese
Para. 7 There are three stages of iron
deficiency. The first and most common is
having low iron reserves, a condition that
typically has no symptoms. Fatigue and poor
performance may begin to appear in the
second stage of deficiency, when not enough
iron is present to form the molecules of blood
protein that transport oxygen to the working
muscles. In the third and final stage, people
often feel weak, tired, and out of breath — and
exercise performance is severely compromised.

Chinese
Paras. 8-9a “People think that if they’re not at
the third stage, nothing is wrong, but that’s not
true,” says John L. Beard, who helped design
the Purdue study. “You’re not stage 3 until your
iron reserves go to zero, and if you wait until
that point, you’re in trouble.”
However, most people with low iron reserves
don’t know they have a deficiency, because
traditional methods of calculating the amount of
iron in blood (by checking levels of the blood
protein that transports oxygen) are not
sufficient, Beard states. (To be continued)

Book 3
Unit 2
III. Passage A
Chinese
Para. 9b Instead, it’s important to check levels
of a different compound, which indicates the
amount of storage of iron in the blood. While
active, child-bearing age women are most
likely to have low iron stores, he notes, “Men
are not safe, especially if they don’t eat meat
and have a high level of physical activity.” (An
estimated 15 percent of male long distance
runners have low iron stores.) Beard and
other experts say it’s advisable for people in
these groups to have a yearly blood test to
check blood iron reserves.

III. Passage A
Chinese
Para. 10a If iron levels are low, talk with a
physician to see if the deficiency should be
corrected by modifying your diet or by taking
supplements. In general, it’s better to undo the
problem by adding more iron-rich foods to the
diet, because iron supplements can have
serious shortcomings. (To be continued)

III. Passage A
Chinese
Para. 10b Supplements may produce a feeling
of wanting to throw up, and may be poisonous
in some cases. The best sources of iron, and the
only sources of the form of iron most readily
absorbed by the body, are meat, chicken, and
fish. Good sources of other forms of iron
include dates, beans, and some leafy green
vegetables.

Para. 11a “Select breads and cereals with the
words ‘iron-added’ on the label,” writes
sports diet expert Nancy Clark. “This added
iron supplements the small amount that
naturally occurs in grains. Eat these foods
with plentiful Vitamin C (for example, drink
orange juice with cereal or put a tomato on a
sandwich) to enhance the amount of iron
absorbed.” (To be continued)

Unit 2
III. Passage A
Chinese
Para. 11b Clark also recommends cooking in
iron pans, as food can derive iron from the
pan during the cooking process. “The iron
content of tomato sauce cooked in an iron pot
for three hours showed a striking increase, the
level going up nearly 30 times,” she writes.
And people who are likely to have low iron
should avoid drinking coffee or tea with meals,
she says, since substances in these drinks can
interfere with iron being absorbed into the
body.

Para. 12 “Active women need to be a lot
more careful about their food choices,”
sums up Purdue’s Lyle. “If you pay

reserves are gone, you can remedy the
deficiency before it really becomes a
problem.”

Para.1
运动医学专家经过多年的观察，发现耐力运
动员，特别是女性，经常会缺铁。普渡大学
研究人员进行的一项新的研究表明：即使是
适度的锻炼，也可能会降低女性血液中的铁
含量。
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.2 “我们发现，那些通常不运动的女性一旦开始适
度的锻炼，就会出现铁含量下降的迹象，”普渡大学
罗斯安妮·M. 莱尔副教授说。她对62名妇女进行了研
究，并将研究结果发表在《体育运动医学与科学》杂
志上。这些妇女原先不怎么运动，后来开始了为期6个
月、每周3次的锻炼。
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.3 莱尔指出：“那些增食肉类食品或服用铁质
补剂的女性能够恢复到健康状态。但突然参加锻炼
却仍沿用旧食谱的人则显示出铁含量降低。”
Para.4a 缺铁在女性中是很常见的，每四个十几岁
的少女中有一人缺铁，每五个18至45岁的女性中有
一人缺铁。而在积极锻炼的妇女中这一比例更高，
女耐力运动员中，缺铁者比例则高达80%。
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.4b 莱尔说，这意味着 “太多女性忽视了自己摄
入的铁含量”。 育龄女性危险最大，因为月经是铁
流失的重要原因之一。此外，许多保健意识太强的
女性也很危险，因为她们拒绝食用牛肉或羊肉，而
这些肉中含有的铁最易被吸收。而且，由于女性常
常为了控制体重而节食，从而未能摄取足够的含铁
丰富的食物，结果可能导致缺铁。
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.5 另一名专家指出，“普通女性每天摄入的铁只
是应摄入量的三分之二。” 他指出，“对于那些已
经缺铁的女性，任何因锻炼而产生的更多铁质流失
都足以导致体内缺铁状况的恶化。”
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.6 运动可能通过多种机制导致铁流失。有些铁随
汗液流失。另外，由于某些未知的原因，高强度的
耐力运动有时会引起消化系统内出血。运动员从事
跑步之类高强度剧烈运动，也可能会因为足部血管
失血的现象而使铁质流失。
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.7 缺铁分为三个阶段：第一也即最常见的阶
段，是铁质储量不足。这一阶段一般没有症状。
到了缺铁的第二阶段，就会出现疲倦和力不从心
，此时体内已没有足够的铁来形成血蛋白分子，
将氧输至运动肌肉。在第三即最后阶段，人常常
感到虚弱、疲乏无力、喘不过气，运动成绩大打
折扣。
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.8 “人们认为，只要不到第三阶段就不会有什么问题。这种
想法是不对的。” 帮助设计普渡大学研究的约翰·L. 比尔德说。
“只有当你的铁储量为零时，你才会进入第三阶段。而你若坐等
到这个时候，你的麻烦就大了。”
Para.9a 然而，比尔德指出，大多数铁质储量低的人并未意识到自
己缺铁，因为传统的检测血液中铁含量的方法──检验血液中输
送氧气的血蛋白的含量──是不够的。
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.9b 其实，有必要检查血液中另一种混合成分的
含量，它可以显示血液中的铁含量。他还指出，虽
然积极锻炼的育龄妇女最有可能铁含量低，“但男
性也并非不缺铁，尤其是在他们不吃肉类而又从事
高强度的体力活动的情况下。” （估计有15%的男
性长跑运动员铁含量低。）比尔德和其他专家都说
，对这些人而言，最好每年验一次血，以测定血液
中的铁含量。
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.10a
如果铁含量低，就要去看医生，以确定是否该通过
调整饮食或服用铁质补剂来校正不足。一般说来，
解决问题的最好方法是在食谱中增加含铁丰富的食
物，因为铁质补剂可能存在严重缺陷
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.10b
“服用铁质补剂可能使人想呕吐，有时甚至还会引起
中毒。最好的铁来源，以及唯一最易为身体所吸收
的铁来源，是肉、鸡和鱼。其他较好的铁质来源包
括枣、豆类和一些多叶绿色蔬菜。”
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.11a “选择那些标有‘加铁’字样的面包和麦片
，” 运动营养专家南希·克拉克写道，“这些增加的
铁质补充了谷物中自然含铁量的不足。将这些食物
与含有大量维生素C的食物一起食用──比如吃麦片
时喝橘子汁，或在三明治内夹上番茄──可以促进铁
质吸收。”
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.11b 克拉克还建议用铁锅烹食，因为烹调过程中
食物能从铁锅中吸收铁质。她写道，“在铁锅内烹
煮了3个小时的番茄汁，其铁含量大大提高，增加到
原来的30倍左右。” 她说，铁含量可能低的人，吃
饭时应避免喝咖啡或饮茶，因为这些饮料中所含的
物质会妨碍身体对铁质的吸收。
Book 3
Unit 2
English
Para.12
“运动女性应特别注意选择饮食。”普渡大学的莱尔总
结说：“如果你在铁含量流失之前就注意到了警告信号
，你就可以在它真正成为问题之前弥补铁质的不足。”
