One of the big reasons why people drop an exercise program are lack of interest. If that you’re doing isn’t fun, it’s hard to keep it up. When pick the right type of exercise, consider our workout personality. For an example, do you like to work out alone? If so, solo sports like running or biking could be for you. Or do you like the sharing motivation and companionship that comes for being part of a team? Then school sports and club teams are great ways to stay actively with others.

Do remember the great thing is that it’s never too late start.

China’s Taijiquan, also known as Tai Chi-- a major part of the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and represented by millions of practicers worldwide--     1    (add) to UNESCO'S Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in December 2020.

Nowadays, lots of people went running in their spare time. Some people want to lose weight when others run to keep up fit. Unfortunately, running is not always popularly among young people at school. In some school when it rains and it’s too wet to play football or basketball, children have no choice but do cross-country running instead. However, some students dislike do it. Running is beneficial to us physically and mentally, so we call it the healthy activity. You will find that even short runs can increase you energy and make you more likely to enjoy that life has to offer. So let’s do running every day.

The game of basketball was created by Dr. Naismith, a Canadian who worked as a physical education    1    (instruct) at a college. He noticed    2    lack of interest in exercise among students during wintertime. The Canadian winters were very cold, so the students were    3    (will) to do outdoor activities. Naismith determined that a fast-moving game    4    (play) indoors would fill the empty after the baseball seasons had ended. In December of 1891,he    5    (hang) two old baskets at either end of the gym, and with nine players on each side, organized the first basketball game. In less than a year, basketball was being played in    6    the United States and Canada. Five years    7    (late), a championship was held in New York City.    8    that time, the team had already been reduced to seven, and five became standard in the 1897 season. When basketball first appeared in the 1904 Olympic Games, it    9    (quick) spread throughout the world. In 1906, a metal ring    10    (use) to replace the basket, but the name basketball has remained.

8 . Being highly successful in any field is pretty rare. It takes a combination of natural talent, luck, determination, and plenty of outside support for someone to make it big in sports, entertainment, or business. But what if competing is all that matters to you, whether you are likely to succeed or not? This was the goal of Michael Eddie the Eagle Edwards, and that he reached that goal was an amazing achievement.

Born in the U.K. in 1963, Michael was an enthusiastic downhill skier whose dream was to compete for Britain in world-class competitions. He would have liked to represent his country in the 1984 Winter Olympics, but there were a large number of downhill competitors, and Edwards didn't qualify. Seeing his chance elsewhere, he switched to ski jumping. Ski jumping didn't cost nearly as much, and there was almost no competition for a place on the Britain team.

But number of hurdles (障碍)could have meant the end of Edwards' dream. He weighed more than most competitors, which put him at a disadvantage. He had no financial support for his training. Poor eyesight meant that he had to wear glasses under his goggles (护目镜)- not a good thing when they steamed up at high altitudes. But he couldn't let any of this discourage him. He saw himself as a true lover of the sport who simply wanted the chance to compete. Winning wasn't the point. Having the opportunity to try was all he cared about. And nothing could stop him from trying.

In the end, Edwards took 55th place in the 1987 World Championships. He then went on to the Calgary Olympics in 1988, where he finished last in both of his events. Many athletes would have been embarrassed by this result, but he is proud of his achievement to this day. His determination to fight against all the odds made him a global hero, and in 2016, the inspiring film Eddie the Eagle was made about his life.

Nowadays, most students don’t do sports for kinds of reasons.
