Question

The winter holiday is usually a good time to sleep in. But Xu Haoran, a 14-year-old from Changsha, gets up at 7 a. m. to run at least 2 kilometers every day during the holiday. In fact, this exercise is a part of his homework.

徐不是唯一一个在寒假里坚持锻炼的学生。Nowadays many schools across the country ask students to exercise during the winter holiday. One of the main reasons is that physical education test scores are now worth more on the senior high school entrance examination (中考). In Changsha, the score is up to 60 points, which is 10 points higher than geography or biology.

因此，徐和他的同学们被要求晴天跑步。If the weather is bad, they have to do some indoor sports. Students also need to post exercise photos in their classes’ WeChat groups. This has been a big challenge for many students, but has also helped to make exercise a more important part of their lives. Li Junjie, a 14-year-old student at the same school as Xu, used to hate running. But he is now able to run for half an hour every day. “I have decided to keep doing this in the future,” he said.

Not only teenagers but also primary school students are supposed to exercise during the winter vacation. Yuan Zicheng, a 10-year-old student at the Dong Hu Primary School in Jinan, fell in love with exercise during the holiday. He skips rope(跳绳) for more than 10 minutes every day. “I didn’t use to exercise a lot, but it’s time to catch up!” he said.
