25、 bad thing? Sudden death during or soon after strenuous exertion on the squash court or on the army training grounds， is not unheard of. 41 trained marathon runners are not immune to fatal heart attacks. But no one knows just 42 common these sudden deaths linked to exercise are. The registration and
26、 investigation of such 43 is very patchy； only a national survey could determine the true 44 of sudden deaths in sports. But the climate of medical opinion is shifting in 45 of exercise， for the person recovering from a heart attack as 46 as the average lazy individual. Training can help the victim
27、of a heart attack by lowering the 47 of oxygen the heart needs at any given level of work 48 the patient can do more before reaching the point where chest pains indicate a heart starved of oxygen. The question is， should middle-aged people， 49 particular， be screened for signs of heart disease befor
28、e 50 vigorous exercise?Most cases of sudden death in sport are caused by lethal arrhythmias in the beating of the heart， often in people 51 undiagnosed coronary heart disease. In North America 52 over 35 is advised to have a physical check-up and even an exercise electrocardiogram. The British， on t
29、he whole， think all this testing is unnecessary. Not many people die from exercise， 53 ， and ECGs (心电图) are notoriously inaccurate. However， two medical cardiologists at the Victoria Infirmary in Glasgow， advocate screening by exercise ECG for people over 40， or younger people 54 at risk of developi
30、ng coronary heart disease. Individuals showing a particular abnormality in their ECGs 55 ， they say， a 10to 20 times greater risk of subsequently developing signs of coronary heart disease， or of sudden death.41AThen BThough CSince DEven42Awhy Bhow Cif Dwhat43Arunners Bexercises Cpatients Dcases44Ai

34、t saw Samarkand from a rise across a wilderness of crumbling ruins and great graveyards which lie between it and the airport. Suddenly we caught a glimpse of painted towers and the great blue domes of mosques and tombs shouldering the full weight of the sky among bright green trees and gardens. Beyo
35、nd the gardens and the glittering domes still were those watchful mountains and their evocative snow. I found myself thinking of the thrill I had on catching my first sight of Damascus after crossing the desert from Syria. The light， the orchards and many of the trees were the same but deeper still
36、was the sense of coming into contact with one of the most astonishing cultures in history， the world of the one and only Allah and his prophet Muhammad. It was a world that completely overawed me.Yet the memory of Samarkand which stays with me most clearly is quite a humble one. Coming back to the c
37、ity from the country on my last evening we passed some unusual elm trees and I stopped to have a look at them. They were， my guide told me， perhaps a thousand years old， older certainly than Genghis Khan. A flock of fat-tailed sheep (the same kind of sheep that my own ancestors saw a Hottentot keepi
38、ng when they landed at the Cape of Good Hope 321 years ago)， tended by some Tadshik children， moved slowly home in the distance. Then from the city came quite clearly the call to prayer from mosque and minaret. I had not expected any calls at all and it made no difference that some of the calls came
39、 over loud-speakers. Then beyond the trees an old man appeared on a donkey，dismounted， spread a prayer mat on the ground， and kneeling towards Mecca， he began to pray.From Samarkand I journeyed on to Bokhara which was once the holiest city in Central Asia. At one time it possessed over a hundred rel
40、igious colleges and close to four hundred mosques. It drew adventurers of all races towards it as it did Marco Polo. Not many of them reached their destination. These days at what used to be one of the richest market places in the world， one buys ice-cream instead of slaves； watches and mass-produce
41、d trinkets and fizzy drinks instead of gold， silks and turquoise jewellery. Few of the four hundred mosques remain and most have vanished without even leaving a trace.56Samarkand lies _.Ain a desertBhigh in the mountainsCin front of DamascusDbetween the mountains and the airport57The author said tha
