3 . One runner didn’t let the French government’s order to remain indoors prevent him from training for a marathon during the coronavirus pandemic (新冠疫情). Last week, Elisha Nochomovitz, a 32- year-old restaurant worker, ran the length of a marathon on his 23-oott long balcony (阳台). And he did it in six hours and 48 minutes, a personal record nearly double that of his previous finished time.
“My only pleasure is running, no matter what the time" Nochomovitz. who lives in the French, city of Balma near Toulouse told CNN. He devoted his run to medical staff working through this pandemic, who he felt were “dong an extraordinary job". Although Nochomovitz had run 36 marathons, he said his balcony marathon was the most challenging. Due to the short length of the balcony, Nochomovitz was unable to gain any quantity of motion or speed as he had to constantly turn back and forth. He said he ran about 3, 000 laps. Luckily, Nochomovitz said his girlfriend was there to support him, feeding him M＆M's and Coca Cola to help him refuel as he ran.
Though his balcony is nothing like the streets of Barcelona, where he was supposed to run the marathon on March 15 before it got canceled, Nochomovitz said the experience was worthwhile. Some people. he said, even reached out to say they were inspired by him.
French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe announced on March 14 that the country would be closing all places that are not essential to French living, which includes restaurants, cafes and clubs. France banned all gatherings across the country, and the country closed its borders on March 17 in order to contain the coronavirus outbreak.

4 . New research shows that daily light walking is important for maintaining health as you age. But if you can’t hit 10,000 steps, don't worry. There's nothing magical about the number 10,000.
In fact, the idea of walking at least 10,000 steps a day for health goes back decades to a marketing campaign started in Japan to promote a pedometer(计步器).And then, it was adopted in the US as a goal to promote good health.
"The original basis of the number was not scientific." says researcher I-Min Lee of Brigham and Women’s Hospital. She was curious to know how many steps you need to take a day to maintain good health and live a long life, so she and her colleagues designed a study. It turns out that women who took about 4,000 steps per day got an increase in longevity(寿命), compared with women who took fewer steps. “It was sort of surprising,” Lee says. Another surprise: the benefits of walking maxed out at about 7,500 steps. In other words, women who walked more than 7,500 steps per day saw no additional increase in longevity.
“ I love this study. I think it’s really good news for women who may not be very active. All they have to do is walk,” says Kathleen Janz, who studies how physical activity influences health at the University of Iowa. And Janz says that’s encouraging. Another thing Janz notes is that this study only measured walking. It didn’t measure things that don’t require steps, like gardening, swimming or biking.
So, if 10,000 steps has been feeling out of reach to you, it may be time to reset those factory settings on your fitness tracker. Instead, try to hit at least 4,400 a day, along with daily activities that you enjoy. And stick to it.
1. What’s the original purpose of the idea of walking at least 10,000 steps a day?| A．To make people live longer. |
| B．To help sell a product. |
| C．To change people’s habits. |
| D．To test a pedometer |
| A．Confusing | B．Unexpected |
| C．Encouraging | D．Doubtful |
| A．People need 10,000 steps a day |
| B．Pedometer producers should change their settings. |
| C．The study should not only focus on daily walking. |
| D．Some activities that don’t demand steps also benefit health. |
| A．Jogging. | B．Swimming. | C．Basketball. |
