People are busy working every day, so they do not have enough time to do exercise. As a result (结果), many people become too fat. To keep our bodies healthy, we have to do exercise every day.
There are many kinds of exercise. Bending (弯腰) and stretching (伸展) help us move easily. Before we play ball games or swim, it is better for us to do bending and stretching first. This kind of exercise is sometimes called “warm-up exercise”. Running is also good exercise. If we cannot run fast, we can jog. Jogging means running slowly. Before we run or jog, we must do warm-up exercises. And we should not run or jog in busy streets. The air there is often dirty. Some people like weight lifting (举重) because it can make their bodies strong. We also need to do some warm-up exercises before weight lifting.

Rock climbing did not become a sport until late in the 1900s. But now it has become a popular outdoor activity. While rock climbing may still be necessary for mountain climbing, most people just climb low mountains for fun.
If you have ever done rock climbing, you will know that it is not a very easy sport. Indoor and outdoor rock climbing both need practice. What most people don’t know is that rock climbing is one of the sports that depend on your body and mind.
To climb successfully, one must use wonderful skills. One of the important rules is to always have three parts of your body on the rock face. Another important rule is that your arms only hold you close to the rock face while your legs are pushing you up. The closer you are to the rock face, the easier it is to climb.
Rock climbing is a wonderful sport. Once you start to learn how to climb, you’ll find more fun. People who like games such as chess playing or problem-solving may love rock climbing, because they are nearly the same in the way of thinking. For anyone who wants to get into beautiful shape, rock climbing is a fun and good way. Anyone who enjoys a difficult game and loves the outdoors should think of taking rock climbing as a new hobby.

【推荐3】Walking is a hobby I keep on for a long time. However, it is also a habit leading to being laughed at. I often walk about three miles from home to work instead of taking the subway. Sometimes, kind-hearted drivers will offer me a ride, thinking that my car has broken down.
But for me, walking is a good opportunity to relax myself. Besides, it helps my back recover from a day spent bent in front of a computer screen. In terms of health, I have always thought I’d have the last laugh, and now there is even more evidence on my side.
Scientists began a study on walking on volunteers in 2000. Nine years later, brain scans showed that those who had walked more had greater brain volume than those who had walked less. Four years after that, the volunteers were tested again—this time for dementia. Among the group, 116 people showed signs of memory loss or dementia. Those who had walked the most—at least seven miles each week—were half as likely to have cognitive problems as those who had walked the least.
Another study has found that the simple act of walking may improve memory in old age. As we become old, our brains shrink, which can lead to the loss of memory. However, experts say there’s still not enough data to prove that exercise can stop memory loss. It’s also too soon to say whether exercise may stop dementia or simply make it happen a little later in some people. But for those who suffer from dementia, even making it a little later could mean a lot.
1. If the people ________ they had greater brain volume according to the study.| A．walk less | B．swim less | C．walk more | D．swim more |
| A．become small | B．turn down | C．keep active | D．stay young |
| A．movie poster | B．guide book | C．science-fiction novel | D．science magazine |
| A．Walking improved memory | B．Walking is my hobby | C．Dementia | D．Memory loss |
【推荐1】In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution（污染）. They join “environment club（环保俱乐部）”. In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clean.
Here are some things students often do.
No-rubbish lunches. How much do you throw away（扔掉）after lunch? Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags. Every week they will choose the classes that make the least rubbish and report them to the whole school!
No-car day. On a no-car day, nobody comes to school in a car, not the students and not the teachers! Cars give pollution to our air, so you can walk, jump or run to school. Use your legs! It’s lots of fun.
Turn off the water! Do you know that some toilets（厕所）can waste twenty to forty tons of water an hour in a year? That will fill a small river! In environment clubs, students help to save water.

【推荐3】Most young boys don’t like growing flowers and watering them. But for 16-year-old Angus, working in the garden isn’t just a hobby—it has changed his life.
Angus has a special illness and his IQ is lower than an ordinary boy. Six months ago, he started learning how to grow flowers. Now, he spends hours in the garden growing flowers, watering and looking after them. “Before working in the garden, it was difficult for Angus to pay attention to class and sometimes he didn’t want to go to school,” said his mother Kim. “Now he can’t wait to go to school and he is happy every day. We can see Angus is able to work in a garden center in the future.”
Research shows that working in the garden improves mental and physics health （身心健康）. In the past, soldiers in Egypt treated their mental problems after war by working in the garden. Even now, some doctors advise people to work in the garden to treat their mental health problems. And doctors also advise young people like Angus to work in the garden.
The lives of hundreds of children in Britain with special needs, like Angus, have been changed by this special kind of education. When working in the garden, children have a chance to learn a lot of important skills, such as how to work with other people and how to take care of plants. Besides, the children become more confident after working in the garden.
