Exercising is a free time activity that helps people to feel good in many aspects of the health definition.

The best known part that exercising improves is the physical part. The physical effect of exercising is that every part and system of our body is in continuous movement. There are many parts in our body that benefit from exercise, but one of the most important parts that exercising helps is the blood circulation system. For example, when you exercise, muscles move, and to move, muscles need oxygen in the blood, so the heart has to pump blood at a faster speed to keep the muscles moving. This trains your heart and lungs giving you more strength for the future.

Another part of the definition of health is mental health. This is one of the aspects that makes people exercise. Exercise distracts and relaxes you for a while because in your exercise, you are getting rid of many feelings, such as stress. Many people feel that after exercising, all the problems and pressures of their lifestyle disappear or at least are forgotten for a while. While exercising problems of our lives can be solved because you are calm and relaxed, and it s just much easier to think clearly.

The social aspect of health is helped with exercise because many of the sports are and can be made with someone else. This makes stronger relationships because you meet people that like you and share the same things. I think that this makes you feel more secure and learn about human relationships.

Exercising is an activity that touches the three aspects of health. By exercising you could improve the functioning of your body, be calm in your mind, and meet new people which make a healthier life. All in all, exercising enables you to get the satisfaction of doing something that helps you to live a healthy life. This idea causes many people to think of exercise as a drug. You should try it. Exercise, and be healthy.

There is a growing interest in rock climbing. Recently there    1    (be) an improvement in technology and techniques to perform it. The sport is getting more    2    (attract) to many people. Although rock climbing has risks and physical challenges, people still have several reasons to take it up.

Some sportsmen feel that rock climbing can never become boring. This is because you have different places to go climbing. Additionally, there are several challenging routes to climb. If you are tired    3    walls at your location, you may visit elsewhere    4    (experience) other challenging walls.

    5    (obvious), it offers great fun and adventure to people when they go high up on walls. When they push themselves beyond the expected limits, they get    6    sense of achievement. Many people feel that rock climbing also gives them a feeling of    7    (free), as they can go wherever they want.

There are many sportsmen    8    also lake rock climbing as a physical challenge where they always move up the levels. After    9    (cross) a set level, they move to the next and then to the next. And they can always give a fight to their previously achieved    10    (goal). It all depends on their physical fitness and skill levels.

4 . Tired of your quiet day-to-day life? How about leaving your computer games behind and taking up an extreme sport?

You can ride a bicycle, right? In that case you’re halfway to becoming a mountain biker. All you have to do is take your bike off the road and try some hilly areas. Mountain biking was developed in California in the 1970s and became an Olympic sport in 1996.

Not challenging enough? Skydivers jump from planes at a height of 1,000 to 4,000 meters. You have to be fit but there’s no age limit with this sport. For example, Dilys Price from Cardiff went on her first jump aged 54. The minute she came down, she wanted to go up again. She said: “It was so attractive”.

Some adventures have invented base jumping, in which people jump from tall structures, such as buildings or bridges, with a parachute. Many of their jumps aren’t legal, especially in the cities.Dan Witchalls has jumped off The Shard —London’s 310 meter-high building four times.He says, “Base jumping is scarier than jumping out of a plane. In a plane there is no sense of height, but when you are standing on the edge of the building you can see people and cars, the experience makes it very real.”

It seems there’s no shortage of imagination when it comes to risking life to look cool and get the heart beating wildly. Surfing, diving, rock climbing ...And how about extreme ironing? That is, pressing your clothes on top of a mountain! Extreme ironing is said to have been created in the 1990s in England by a man who saw a large amount of wrinkled clothes and felt bored when doing the cloth ironing. That man was Phil Shaw. For him, the excitement of this sport comes from looking at the viewers’ faces. Shaw says, “Sometimes they look confused; sometimes they laugh. It’s fun to see how people react to it.”

Over a year ago, before Ke Jie, one of China’s and the world’s best Go(围棋) players, battled with AlphaGo, the artificial intelligence (AI) machine     1    (develop) by Google’s Deepmind team, he was     2    (confidence) that he would win-----even though the program     3    (defeat) top ROK Go player Lee SE-dol only two months before.

But then 19-year-old Ke lost. In an interview with CGTN after the match, he admitted, “AlphaGo can see the whole universe of Go, but I can only see a small pond in my backyard,” Ke said. “So, please, let     4     explore the universe, but let me play in my own backyard.”

Today’s Ke,     10     a Go player, is trying to be the best player he humanly can.

6 . I am a part of the Windward Robotics team known as the Omnicats, one of the many clubs offered at my school. My eight teammates and I started out by watching the robotics qualifiers and finals of Chinese teams. We used these robotics videos for inspiration and drew up mind maps of what our team wanted to do.

We meet everyday for two hours after school in order to build our robots. Typically, adults oversee what students are building, but my school lets teens take control. It leaves room for more errors, but we’re prouder of our final product.

Before our first real match, a practice one was offered at the actual site. My sub-team had been further along than other teams but quickly fell behind. When we arrived on that big day, I immediately felt my teammates’ tension. Our first match was in three minutes. All of us glanced around at each other since we were not prepared at all. Our robot was still sitting in a box. Two of our teammates rushed to take the robot for an official examination as the rest of us discussed our strategy.

Our team captain explained that we all should try driving the robot now, while it was early in the season. She gave me the remote. I had only driven for a limited amount of time in practice so I was extremely nervous. Our autonomous code began to run almost immediately after our short discussion. Despite all the drama, we ended up winning the match. Not too bad for the first match! I was so proud. I did not enjoy the pressure of driving but liked building the robot behind the scenes instead.

We have transferred to a different type of robotics at the end of the semester, which involves the whole team designing one giant robot with large tools. I am a part of the electrical team now, so I make sure the motherboard(母板) can supply the robot’s energy needs. We have all enjoyed the rest of the season and learned that robotics is never dull!

9 . The biggest soccer organization in the U.S. introduces new rules to make the sport safer.

The U.S. Soccer Federation announced that players in its teams who are 10 or younger are no longer allowed to head the ball. Players aged from 11 to 13 have limits on how often they can practice heading.

The new rules are set to stop kids from getting hurt because of a blow to the head that shakes the brain. Players may get headaches by heading the ball. Even worse, they may also get concussions, which will cause lasting brain damage.

Heading the ball can be one of the most dangerous parts of soccer. Sometimes the force of hitting the ball with their heads gives players concussions. But more often, players receive concussions when they jump to head the ball and by accident knock heads with other players or fall and hit their heads on the grass.

“More concussions happen during the act of heading than any other action in soccer,” says Dr. Robert Cantu, an expert on brain damage.

So far, the new rules are only used by teams that are part of the U.S. Soccer Federation. But the group says it hopes more soccer teams will soon follow its example.

Former U.S. soccer star Brandi Chastain is one of the leaders of the activity to ban heading among young soccer players. She welcomes the rule change but wants the rule to include all players under 14.

1. The new rules are made to________．

A．keep young players from being hurt

B．teach young players how to practice heading

C．make the U.S. Soccer Federation more famous

D．encourage young players to improve their skills

2. What is Brandi Chastain’s attitude towards the new rules?

A．She is against them.	B．She supports them.
C．She is unsure about them.	D．She doesn’t care about them.

3. What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．New rules in soccer.	B．How to protect young players.
C．Brain damage becomes more common.	D．The introduction of the U.S. Soccer Federation.

10 . People need to relax and enjoy themselves. One way they can have a good time is to watch a baseball game or another sports event. Even thousands of years ago, groups of people gathered to watch skilled athletes(运动员)．

Over 2, 000 years ago in Greece, certain days in the year were festival days. These were holidays when people stopped work and enjoyed themselves. They liked to watch athletes take part in races and other games of skill.

The most important festival was held every four years at the town of Olympia. It was held in honour of the Greek god Zeus. For five days, athletes from all parts of the Greek world took part in the Olympic Games. At the Olympic Games, people could watch them box, run, jump and so on. There was a relay race between two teams of men in which a lighted torch(火炬) was passed from runner to runner. The Olympic Games were thought to be so important that cities which were at war with one another had to stop fighting. People were allowed to travel to the games freely. Thousands of people came to Olympia from cities in Greece and from its colonies(殖民地) in Africa，Asia and Italy. They met as friends to cheer their favourite athletes and to enjoy themselves.
