4 . People believe that climbing can do good to health. Where can you learn the skill of climbing then? If you think that you have to go to the mountains to learn how to climb, you’re wrong. Many Americans are learning to climb in city gyms. Here, people are learning on special climbing walls. The climbing wall goes straight up and has small holding places for hands and feet.

How do people climb the wall? To climb need special shoes and a harness around your chest to hold you. There are ropes tied to your harness. The ropes hold you in place so that you don’t fall. A beginner’s wall is usually about 15 feet high, and you climb straight up. There are small pieces of metal that stick out for you to stand on and hold on to. Sometimes it’s easy to see the new piece of metal. Sometimes, it’s not. The most difficult is to control your fear. It’s normal for humans to be afraid of falling, so it’s difficult not to feel fear. But when you move away from the wall, the harness and the ropes hold you, and you begin to feel safe. You move slowly until you reach the top.

Climbing attracts people because it’s good exercise for almost everyone. You use your whole body, especially your arms and legs. This sport gives your body a complete workout. When you climb, both your mind and your body can become stronger.

5 . It has been difficult to sit on the bench most of the time, watching my team from the sideline. I always _______ why I am not good enough to be on the floor.

8 . Walking is good for you.It’s good for your heart, for your lungs, for the muscle and bone growth of your children.Strong scientific evidence now supports the many benefits to health of regular walking.

Walking is connected with reduced death rates for both older and younger adults.In other words, walkers live longer!

In particular, walking has a great effect on cardiovascular disease(心血管病).Fit and active people have around half the risk of cardiovascular disease compared to unfit inactive people.

Even 10-minute walks can increase fitness.One study at Loughbrough University found that women walking continuously for 30 minutes 5 days a week had almost the same increases in fitness as women who divide their 30 minutes into three 10-minute walks.

The majority of studies of young people indicate falling participation in physical activity.Only half of 11-36-year-olds currently walk for ten minutes a day.Children in Britain walk 50 miles a year less than they did a decade ago.Around 20% of children can be classed as overweight.TV, computers, cultural changes and fears for children’s safety out of doors play a large part.

Walking offers a great way to help kids get the active habit.If parents express excitement about the prospect (前景) of a walk in the countryside, they are more likely to pass this feeling to their children.It’s important to treat the walk as an exploration or adventure and to go at the child’s pace, no matter how often they want to stop and look at things, take treats to eat and plenty to drink, and head for some landmarks that will attract them such as a castle, a playground, an ice cream car or a boating pond.If children experience walking as part of a fun activity, they are more likely to want to go again.

9 . Whether you are racing or touring, long-distance cycling can be very rewarding.     1     In general, it is more important to prepare your mind and your gear (齿轮) for the challenge ahead than it is to train your body. The best way to physically train for a long cycling trip is to take a long cycling trip! There are several steps for you.

Stretch first! Warm up for at least ten minutes before each long-distance cycling session.     2     This way, you can reduce the risk of injury.

Pace yourself.     3     Try to keep up this pace as best you can. Use a lower gear so that you don't wear yourself out. Try to keep up a rate of roughly 90 rpm(revolutions［旋转］per minute) on a low gear to go easy on your muscles and lungs.

Shift gears. When you come to a hill, change into a lower gear so that you can more easily reach the top.     4     Throughout the ride, stay aware of how hard you are working. If you are struggling to push the pedals (踏板), you should switch into a lower gear to conserve your energy.

    5     Even if you feel strong, stop every 10-20 miles to give your body a rest and ensure that everything is running smoothly. Rehydrate (补水) by drinking some water, and boost your energy levels with a quick snack. Keep doing so until you arrive at your destination.

A．Take regular breaks.

B．You are sure to face some challenges during your cycling.

C．You should make better use of gears.

D．Try some exercises like jumping and jogging in place.

E．When going down, you should change to a higher gear.
