21、 Kenya’s long-distance runners are among the best in the world. Is their food and daily routine (常规) a key to the secret of their success? We spent a week at a training camp with ten top athletes (运动员) to find out. This is what we discovered.
They eat five times a day:
08:00 Breakfast
10:00 Mid-morning snack
13:00 Lunch
16:00 Afternoon snack
19:00 Supper
The Kenyan runners’ food is based on bread, rice, potatoes, porridge, cabbage, beans and ugali (balls of cornmeal). Ugali is usually eaten with vegetables.
Meat is eaten in fairly small amounts, just four times a week. The athletes drink a lot of tea with milk and sugar. They get all the vitamins (维生素) they need from their food — they never take vitamin pills.
They usually train as a group twice a day. The first run is at 6 o’clock in the morning and the afternoon run is at 5 o’clock. They run 10 to 15 kilometres in the morning and 6 to 8 kilometres in the afternoon. Once a week, the two 1,500-metre runners in the group run shorter distances at higher speeds.
An amazing part of the Kenyan food is its richness in carbohydrates (碳水化合物). Every 24 hours, they have about 600 grams of carbohydrates to give them energy for their training. They only eat a little fat, most of it coming from the milk they have in their tea. They drink about a litre (升) of water every day. Surprisingly, they drink more than a litre of tea every day, too. They always eat soon after training.
Rest and sleep are also an important part of the athletes’ programme. They are always in bed early and they always get a good night’s sleep.
【1】Why did the author go to the training camp?
A.To improve his running. B.To report who are the best runners.
C.To learn from the athletes’ good habits. D.To find out why the athletes do so well.
【2】What do we know about the first group run of the day?
A.It starts at midmorning. B.It happens before breakfast.
C.It is shorter than the second run. D.It is led by two 1,500-metre runners.
【3】What surprised the author about the athletes?
A.They drink a lot of tea. B.They eat five times a day.
C.They never take vitamin pills. D.They take in a lot of milk and sugar.

She started a travel blog when she was only eight. The website, called YaYa Stars, grew out of that blog. "YaYa" is Ayonnah's nickname, and" Stars" refers to her five-star rating system. She made the site for kids who want to go to places and kids who have been to places.
Ayonnah and her family have travelled a lot. But when she looked for information and reviews about their destinations, she didn't find any that was written by or for kids. At first she just wanted a website where she could write about the places she had visited. But her friends wanted to share their adventures, too. So now, she lets other kids rate the places they've been to as well.
" The website has taken off beyond our wildest dreams," said Ayonnah's mother. " We get anywhere between 25,000 and 75,000 unique visitors in a month worldwide. This was all her idea. She was young and that was great for that age and we just gave her our basic support.
Ayonnah's website contains shop and restaurant reviews, too—including her views about the pizza in Rome. But she was not as impressed by a restaurant at a major U. S. theme park. She discovered a toothpick inside one of the French fries. However, she did soften the review by calling the restaurant's decoration' wonderful",
