Do you like exercise? Do you know something about plank (平板支撑) exercise?

Plank exercise has become more and more popular in recent years. It requires little time. It's easy to do. What's more, doing plank exercise regularly may bring lots of advantages.

Performing plank exercise as a daily home exercise before or after school will not only speed up your metabolism (新陈代谢), but also keep your metabolic rate (速率) high all day long. Doing the exercise regularly will make you burn lots of calories. This is especially useful if you have to sit in the classroom for hours every day. A high metabolic rate will help you lose weight and keep in good shape.

Have you ever tried standing on one leg? You couldn't keep it for more than ten seconds, right? It's not because you are drunk. Instead, it's because your muscles (肌肉) aren't strong enough to help you keep your balance. Doing plank exercise regularly will improve your balance, Stronger muscles will also help you keep a standing position at all times.

____ Just think about it: You are sitting in your chair at home or at school all day long. Your muscles get tired, and your legs get heavy. Plank exercise will relax the muscle groups. As a result, it can have a powerful and positive effect on our mood.

Considering all the advantages of plank exercise, will you make it part of your everyday life?

Many of the habits we keep with us throughout our lives are learned in childhood. For parents, this means it's important to encourage children to be physically active because physical activities help improve healthy growth and build strong bones. Then what should parents do?

Even though children often have lots of energy, they are not patient enough. Children get the most benefit (益处) from physical activities when adults help them discover the fun of them. Physical activities for children should change frequently enough so that children won't find them boring. If taking children on a walker or a bicycle ride, change the route to give the kids something to look forward to. 

Children learn many habits from their parents. If they see you enjoying exercises, they'll learn to regard it as a healthy and fun part of the day. If, however, children see their parents spending their evenings and weekends in front of TV or sitting at a computer, they'll learn to see this as normal and follow their habits, even without knowing it. 

For many adults, spending too much time in a car rather than walking or bicycling leads to poor health, the same is true for children. Walking or cycling to school or friends' houses is a good way for children to get exercise, have fun and learn independence. If you have concerns (忧虑) about children walking or biking alone, why not join them?

Parents don't have to do it alone in helping kids stay active. Other parents can help to organize active play for children, while schools and community groups organize sports teams, sports clubs, dance classes and other physical activities. Raising healthy kids can be easier and more rewarding when it's a teamwork.

I used to dislike PE lessons as a teenager. I was not very good at sports, and I hated team sports 1 I always felt like I was disappointing the rest of the team. During these years, I sometimes felt disconnected from my body like only my brain was "me" and my 2 was just a vehicle (运载工具) for carrying my brain around.

When I started university, I decided to try a kung fu club. To my 3 , I loved it! In my first year, most of us were beginners. I used to go two or three times a week. Because it is not a team sport, I didn't feel 4 about not being very good. And because it is a combat (格斗) sport, you train in 5 , which means that you get to meet people and talk to them. I also appreciated (欣赏) that the classes not only 6 improving my kung fu skills, 7 aimed to transform my body through exercise. When I was doing kung fu, my body changed—I got 8 and quicker, but the changes were a side effect of the sport, instead of the goal.

9 I moved to Italy this year, I decided to start doing a combat sport 10 . I joined a local kung fu club and I loved it. We did lots of sparring (拳击). I think that sparring is like chess, but much faster and much more fun! If your sparring partner tries to 11 you hard with his fist, you have to move quickly to 12 him, block or even catch his arm and then hit him 13 .

When I was a teenager, I would say I just wasn't a sporty person and that I just didn't like sport and never would. Now I think that everyone should try as 14 sports as possible because I believe there is something out there for everyone! I feel connected to my body and I am 15 and have more energy when I have been doing sport.

China is the first to grow, make, and drink tea. There are many kinds of Chinese tea.

Most of you may think of clams (河蚌) as part of a big meal. But these little things can do a more important job: testing (检测) the cleanness of people's drinking water!

The main water station in Poland (波兰), gives water for millions of people there. They make eight clams test the drinking water. Because clams have an amazing sense of finding water pollution. If the water is not clean enough, they close their shells (壳). So, the water station got the clams and connected their shells to a computer system. When four or more clams close their shells at the same time, an alarm (警报) will make a sound.

Clams will get used to (习惯) dirty water in several months, so they only work for three months. People will get new clams to take over the job. The water station said this could work well to test water quality (质量).

There's a film on this story, called Fat Kathy. The film shows how wildlife helps people around the world, said Bored Panda, a leading art and pop culture magazine.

Orange trees grow in warm and sunny places. You can often find them near rivers because they need lots of water to grow. Some orange trees can grow to about 30 feet (英尺) high! In the spring, the trees have white flowers. Later, these flowers change into oranges. An orange tree can grow about 1,200 oranges in a year! When the oranges are big enough, farmers pick them by hand. Sometimes they use machines (机器) to pick oranges. Then they send the oranges to a juicing plant.

What happens to the oranges at the juicing plant? First, workers squeeze the oranges, and get the juice. They put the juice into bottles. Then they move the bottles onto big trucks. Finally, the orange juice is ready to go to stores. People can buy and enjoy the tasty juice!
