In the past, jogging in the street was seen as a bit silly and not ve
2、ry cool. But things are changing. Nowadays, lots of people go out running in their spare time. Some people go to lose weight while others go simply to keep fit. The shops are now full of equipment， clothing and gadgets for runners. Many runners also have special watches which can track their route a
3、nd tell them their speed. Even at 4：30 in the morning you sometimes see runners in the street. And scientists say that along with cycling and swimming, running is a very good way to keep fit.Unfortunately, running is often quite unpopular among young people at school. In some schools when it rains a
4、nd its too wet to play football or hockey, children have to do crosscountry running instead. However, now that running has become more fashionable, hopefully more young people will take it up. But, of course, trends (趋势) change all the time, so lets hope that running is here to stay.Every year in Ap
5、ril, the London Marathon takes place. The race covers a fantastic route in which runners pass lots of famous sites like The London Eye and Big Ben. People come from all over the world to run in the London Marathon. Interestingly, marathon running used to be seen as an extreme sport, but now even peo
6、ple who are very unfit take part in marathons every year! Not that marathons have got easier but that people have become more interested in running.

10、 do put on too much weight and dont like it. The question is: what can they do about it? Some believe exercise can be helpful. But the trouble is that it only makes you want to eat more. You might sweat off (因出汗而减轻) a couple of pounds by playing tennis or climbing the mountain, but you put it all ba
11、ck on again with a big steak or bread and jam.A helpful way is foodchoosing. But what sort of food should you choose? Some believe that the less they eat, the slimmer they will be. They dont eat anything until they become weak with hunger. Some stick to milk and bananas. Youll find you need a lot of
12、 bananas, and unless you live where they grow, they arent cheap. Another theory says that if you eat things like hardboiled eggs, apples with their skins on, and lean meat which are hard for your stomach to digest， the more you eat, the thinner you get. This is because you use up the fat in your bod
13、y to get the energy to digest the food.For most of us these methods are too extreme (极端的). The simplest way is just to cut down on the carbohydrates； that means not eating bread, potatoes, cakes, sugar, rice, and so on and eating anything else you like. Its straightforward and often quite effective.
14、Still others like to be more scientific. They are calorie counters. They get a table which tells them that, for example, 100 grams of roast leg of lamb give you 330 calories and a 50gram helping (一份食物) of Yorkshire pudding gives you 130 calories.4The practical method suggested in this passage means

16、s to Keep Fit DFood and HealthCAccording to a recent report, about 15% of the people in the UK are members of gyms. But are they more likely to be fit?A study found that gym members were 14 times more active than people who didnt belong to any health club. Gym members did six hours more exercise a w
17、eek, and this activity did make them fitter than nongym members. They also spent less time sitting down every day than nongym members. The results were the same for men and women.The study included 405 people between the ages of 30 and 64, and the main characteristics of those who were gym members w
18、ere the same as those who were not. “But gym members did more training than nongym members，” said the lead author, Elizabeth Schroeder of the University of Illinois.While it might seem clear that gym members exercise more and are healthier than nongym members, Schroeder says this has not been direct
19、ly shown before. However, the study is only designed to show a tie between gym membership and more exercise. It may be that active people like to join gyms. In the study, people who exercised as much as gym members were also in good health.You can get the same benefits wherever you exercise. This st
20、udy shows a gym membership can make you do more exercise, but other research shows that exercising outside has other help. Outdoor activity can make you feel happy about lifeespecially if you run through a forest.Outdoor exercise is also more interesting than going to the gym. The first five minutes

23、probably mean?AHelp. BNeed.CAdvice.
