Running: sport or way of life?

You go through the channels several times and find that once again there’s nothing on TV that interests you. Not a problem! Just put on some running shoes and comfortable clothes and go for a run.

One of the best things about the sport of running is that you don’t need expensive equipment. All you need is a good pair of running shoes and a safe environment. But don’t be fooled into thinking the sport of running is easy. It requires discipline and concentration.

Running is good for you both physically and mentally. It strengthens your heart, lungs, and muscles. It makes you more aware of your body. Running also improves your body so that you don’t get sick as easily. It can even help you to stay more focused in school because exercise helps you to think more clearly.

How do you get engaged in the sport if you don’t know much about it? Most schools offer running programs. A simple Internet search can help you find some in your area. The programs show you how running can offer competition or just be for fun. They also teach runners to set practical goals and take care of their bodies.

Runners have great respect for each other because they know how difficult the sport can be. If you go to a race, you’ll see people cheering for all the runners. Running isn’t always about how fast you are running or how far you’re going. It’s about getting out there and doing it. Participation is more important than competition, and effort is recognized over talent.

At the store where I worked, I noticed a young boy of about ten shopping alone with his school list. He placed everything in his basket and went to the checkout.

With eyes full of tears, he asked if he could phone his mum to pick him up. When he got through, it appeared that even this was inconvenient for his mother.

He bit hard on his lip to stop the tears and walked outside to wait on the bench in front of the shop. This was all too much for the young assistant who had served him and she said, “ I wish I could afford to pay for the rest of his things. ” One of the other girls said she had a few dollars.

Our Muscles

①When we think of muscles, we might often picture a bodybuilder with big arm and leg muscles. But our muscles do not have to look like that to work well.

②As a matter of fact, every time we write our name, we use the 20 different muscles in our hand. Every time our heart beats, we use our cardiac muscle(心肌) . When we eat our food, we

use our tongue muscles. We even use muscles when we open and close our eyes. In fact, every time we move, we use some of the muscles in our body.

③A muscle is made of tiny fibers. Fiber is a type of tissue that feels a little like a rubber band. Thousands of these fibers are packed together to make a single muscle. We all have the same number of muscles----about 700 or so. Men and women with big muscles simply have thicker bundles of fibers.

④There are three different types of muscles in our body. Smooth muscles are the ones that we cannot control. They work quietly to keep our body running. Also, they are the ones that help us to absorb our food. The cardiac muscle makes the heart pump blood in and out. Skeletal muscles are the ones that we can control. These are the muscles that we use to raise our hands, or ride our bicycles.

⑤Even our face often uses muscles. But if we want to save our energy, try smiling instead of frowning. Remember that it takes 17 muscles in our face to smile, but 43 muscles to frown!

Biological Clock

When the sun rises on a warm and sunny day, you can see some flowers open up. When they close late in the afternoon, other flowers open.

Biological rhythms (生物节律) , like the opening and closing of flowers, happen all over nature. But not all of them are daily rhythms. Some, like the beating of our heart, happen every second. 26

Scientists use the term biological clock to describe the timing that controls biological rhythms. 27 In some animals it is probably controlled by the brain. In plants and other living things that have no brain, it must be something else.

The migration of animals happens when a signal is sent out. For example, when days become shorter, birds leave the northern parts of the world and fly south where it is warm. 28

Humans also have biological clocks that control their daily rhythms. When people travel by plane from one continent to another, they often cross many time zones. Their internal clocks don’t seem to work correctly. We call this jet lag (时差) . 29 People who work night shifts also have problems with their biological clocks. They may not be as active as people who work during the daytime.

Biological clocks control many rhythms of life. 30 Doctors are looking for new ways to make travelling more comfortable and medical treatment more effective.
