Jogging (慢跑) is basically running at a steady (平稳的) speed over short or long distances. It has become popular some twenty years and remained a favorite way of keeping fit for lots of people.

        People jog around college campuses, in parks, in the countryside and even in urban areas. Special courts, fields and running tracks are not necessary. Similarly, no special equipment is required — no costly hats, or balls, and no expensive sports kit. Good quality running shoes are advisable, but otherwise the jogger can simply wear loose, comfortable clothing.

        It’s not unusual to see joggers exercising in the height of summer or in the depth of winter! Jogging is a solo (单独的) sport. You don’t need to wait until you have formed a team or found a partner. You can jog alone. A few words of warning, however: lone female joggers should be especially careful to choose sensible jogging routes, particularly at night time.

        You just need to be basically healthy and after basic warming up, you are ready to begin. You simply start running, gently, and then build up to a steady pace. Do not overtire yourself by trying to go too fast. A steady, comfortable pace is your aim.

    It’s good for the lungs, the heart and the circulation (循环). It’s easy and it’s convenient. Why don’t you try it? If you require more information, talk to one of the instructors at the sports centre. We are only too happy to help. Please remember: if you do decide to jog, talk to your doctor first if you have any health worries. Happy jogging!

A. Jogging is excellent for keeping fit.

B. That’s the reason why people like jogging.

C. The act of jogging doesn’t need any special training or skill.

D. One of the main advantages of jogging is that it can be done anywhere.

E. In addition to being able to jog anywhere, you can also jog at any time, in any season!


The little boy turned to the old woman next to him, ‘‘Granny, are you sure I don’t have enough money?’’ She nodded. The little boy was still   36  the doll (洋娃娃) in his hand.
I walked toward him,   37  who he wished to give this doll to. “Sister. She was sure that Santa Claus would bring a doll to her.” I told him that maybe Santa Claus would do so. But he replied to me   38  . “No, Santa Claus(圣诞老人) can’t bring it to her   39  she is now. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she   40  there. My sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too,   41  I thought she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.’’
The little boy looked   42  at me, “I told Daddy to tell Mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall. I   43  she didn’t have to leave me, but Daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister.” Then he looked   44  at the doll with sad eyes.
I quickly   45  for my wallet. “Let’s check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll!” “OK. I hope I do have enough.” I added some of my money to   46  without him seeing and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and   47  some spare money. “Thank you God for giving me enough money!” He looked at me and   48 , “I wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my Mommy, but I didn’t dare to ask God   49  too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose. My mommy loves white roses.”
  50  I remembered a local newspaper article two days ago, mentioning a drunk man in a truck hit a car   51  by a young woman and a little girl. The little girl   52  right away and the mother was   53  in a critical state.
Two days   54  this encounter (偶然相遇) with the little boy, I read in the newspaper that the young   55  had passed away.

B
By now there were several people standing around me, my mom, and the little broken bush(灌木丛).
“Son, would you like me to call an ambulance?” some men said.
“No,” my mom yelled. “I’m fine. Please go away!”
“She’s learning to ride,” I tried to explain to all those who were not going to go away.
“Oh, all right!” My mom sat up and brushed the grass and leaves off her sweater. Finally she stood up. Everyone began to clap(鼓掌), and my mom’s face turned bright pink.
“Thank you very much, but as you can see, I’m just fine.” Mom took a few steps around to show them that she wasn’t hiding a broken leg. Everyone clapped again and then went on their way.
“Enough for today?” I asked hopefully.
“No,” she said in a way that surprised me. “I almost had it, and then I let myself get scared. I know I can do it this time!” Now this sounded more like my mom, for I’d never known my mom to be afraid of anything before. I helped her pull the bike out of the bush and push it up the hill.
She didn’t look quite so pale this time. She got on the bike again and went down the hill. I ran down the hill after her. She had ridden quite a way ahead of me when she looked back over her shoulder, smiling. Then she gave me a thumbs-up(翘拇指) sign.
“No, no!” I yelled. “Use both hands!”
But it was too late. Again.
“Mom! Are you hurt?” I ran up to her in the grass.
This time she was laughing. “Did you see me? I did it! I really did it!” Then she stopped and looked at me. “I mean,” she said, “we did it.”
