2 . The application of sports science has greatly improved the performances of China's snowboarders at the Beijing 2022 Winter Paralympics(残奥会), according to the team's coaches.
Last summer, the Chinese riders had detailed physical examination at the Shanghai University of Sports, providing the coaching team with detailed information on each athlete's strengths and weaknesses, coach Zhang Hongzhan said.
"The assessments have allowed us to identify which muscles the athletes have to work harder on. With that information, we can then design personal and professional training plans for each athlete. Without a doubt, sports science has played a key role in helping the para athletes achieve better performances, "Zhang said on Wednesday.
"What's more, sports science has also helped coaches better understand the unique body structures of the para athletes so they can work on their weaknesses while avoiding moves that can lead to injuries, "He added.
The sports science team at the university built a start-gate simulator(模拟器) to measure the force that SB-UL para athletes (Snowboarders with arm disabilities)place on the handle bars.
"The simulator can show that I put on too much strength on the right side because my disability is on my left hand. So I need to start weight training on my left arm to keep the strength balanced on both handle bars. The simulator has helped me gain an advantage at the start gate, " said Ji Lijia who won gold in the snowboard men's cross SB-ULevent at Genting Snow Park in Zhangjiakou on Monday.
Besides the sports science team, China's snowboard team at the Beijing Winter Paralympics also has a team of psychology experts to offer support to para athletes. "We can always get instant support, whether there is a problem with the equipment or the athletes are feeling stressed, " athletes said.

3 . As is often the case, it is human nature to lead a sedentary（久坐的）lifestyle and most of us are so involved in our busy schedules that we don't even notice our bad habits. Many worry about the right time or "right age" to start working out.

4 . There are lots of skiing lovers around the world. To get the most out of your time on the mountain you should think through each part of your adventure- equipment, clothing, food, and travel.
Equipment
Your skiing equipment — composed of your skis, poles, bindings, helmet, and goggles — should be checked over, and possibly tuned up, before you pack your bags for the mountain.
Clothing
Your jacket and snow pants should be properly fitting and recently cleaned. Make sure your gloves are in good shape and offer a sense of comfort.
Food
Anyone who has ever purchased lunch at the ski lodge knows just how expensive it can be. Packing your own lunch saves you money and gets you back on the slopes faster.
Know your way to the mountain before you hit the road and consider writing down directions if you know you’re heading into areas with spotty service. At the mountain, choose a designated meeting place in case the group becomes separated- a spot near the main lift often works well. Check the forecast and current conditions of the mountain. Many ski resorts will have live updates on the number of open trails and lifts.
| A．Routes and planning |
| B．Spots and conditions |
| C．If you are fully prepared |
| D．The more prepared you are |
| E．While bringing a bottle of water with you on the mountain isn’t recommended |
| F．Besides, long underwear goes a long way in keeping your legs warm and comfortable |
| G．If you are taking your skis onto the slope for the very first time, they may also need a fresh wax |
5 . Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.
Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses （球场） in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.
There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.
Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.
