Another popular form of exercise is jogging (慢跑). 2. In the 1970s. Bill Bowerman brought jogging to the USA. He did so after seeing the popularity of the activity during a trip to New Zealand in the 1960s. He started the first jogging club in America. He also helped and found Nike.

Swimming is also very popular. It was the second most popular sporting activity in America in 2008. The top activity was walking. When one is swimming, the whole body is put to work. 3. It is said that swimming is good for people with special needs, like pregnant(怀孕的) women.

Dancing can also be a fun way to exercise. 4. This is especially true for those who see exercise as something that they should do.

At the same time, other family members will prepare a meal for you.Chinese people treat(款待)their guests with a big meal.They always present more food than the guest can eat.On the table, the guests must be the first to eat.Perhaps one of the things that surprises a western guest most is that the Chinese host likes to pick food for visitors, which won’t happen at western tables.The Chinese family go out of their way to make you feel at home. As you are done eating, the host usually says, “It seems that you didn't eat much. Please have more. Although you tell them you are full, they still put more food in your bowl.

Being warm and hospitable has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition.As Confucius(孔子) said thousands of years ago:

To meet friends from afar

25、   Why do we like drinking water from plastic bottles? Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it's easy — you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, we often buy bottles of cold water in the summer.

However, making lots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a source(资源) of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldn't need so much oil. Plastic bottles also pollute the environment. If we recycled all our plastic bottles, we wouldn't need so much space for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, we don't recycle much of the plastic we use. In 2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and seas.

So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you recycled it, you would help the environment. But what can you do when there isn't a recycling bin near you? Well, there are lots of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut a bottle in half, you will have a plant pot. Go green! You can make a difference.

【1】What is NOT mentioned about bottled water in this passage?

A.It's healthy. B.It's clean. C.It's easy. D.It's expensive.

【2】Plastic products are made from ______.

A.To make a different life, you'd better go outside. B.To look different, you'd better wear green clothes.

C.To protect the environment, you can do something. D.To go green, you should use plastic products.

27、To travel around the world is the dream of many adventurous people. But very few people can afford a global tour because hotels, food and airplane tickets are too expensive. Some people, however, have thought of some ways to realize their dreams.

Laura Cody and Tanbay Theune, a couple from Britain, decided to travel around the world. They have found a good way to pay for their trips. They look after pets for rich house owners. In exchange, they can stay in the houses for free. They have looked after horses, cows, cats, dogs and fish. In two years, the couple has been to Australia, Germany, Spain and Italy. They have stayed in big cities and small villages. The home owners are usually very generous and have given them food, wine and day trips.

Another person who tries to realize her travel dream is photographer Rhiannon Taylor. She travels around the world to visit, review and take photos of the best hotels. She shares the places she stays and the food she eats on the Internet with tens of thousands of followers.

With these ways of making money, traveling around the world is no longer a dream. More and more young people are thinking creatively to make their dreams come true.
