It found that overweight people between the ages twenty and fifty-five may have a higher risk.

二、几点说明：

1.评分时，先根据语言和内容初步确定是否到及格线（18分），如：语言内容的完整性、流畅性及准确性等；划定其所属档次后，以该档次的要求来衡量，调整上下分值，最后确定分数。

2.词数少于120，应从得分中减去2分。

3.大小错误的界定：

（1）小错误：单词拼写（相同的单词拼写错误不累计扣分）、冠词、大小写、标点符号错误；（2）大错误：搭配错误、词汇用错（介词、名词、动词、形容词、副词），时态、语态、主谓一致、非谓语动词、句式等错误。

4.评分时，应关注的主要内容为：内容要点的全面性、应用词汇和句子结构的准确性、语法结构的多样性、上下文的连贯流畅性、书写的规范性等五个方面。

三、书面表达

One possible version:

Dear Frank,

Hi!Thank you very much for your letter and your suggestion I'm very glad to know that you have started playing tennis every week and enjoy it very much.

I really appreciate your suggestion and would like to learn it very much,but there is no place nearby to play tennis.Even the nearest playground is al-most half an hour's walk away,so it is impossible for me to start to practice playing tennis.

However,I've found my own ways of exercise.I do some jogging around a garden for half an hour every morning.Sometimes I go to a table tennis club near my house with some friends.It's also great fun.

I hope doing exercise will make both you and me strong and energetic.

Best.wishes to you !

Yours truly,

Zhou Yang
