Human bodies were actually designed for walking,a wonderful form of exercise at no cost.It's kind to our bodies and great for our waistlines.
Probably you already love to walk,but you're getting bored of tracing the same old route day after day,or maybe you're new to walking and aren't sure how to get started.

Call up your friends and schedule walks with them if socializing is your aim. Many malls have groups that come every day,or every weekend,to "walk the mall".These groups are always happy to include one more walker!
Many large cities have incredible gardens and parks that include quiet walking trails getting you off the beaten path.Thanks to the Rails to Trails program,railways across the country are being transformed into scenic walking paths that are a perfect way to seek calmness.
From the benefits to your heart to your overall happiness,walking is just plain good for you. It's a fantastic way to get to know a place by the power of your own two feet.

If you had to choose one word to describe Kevin,it might be "slow".He didn't learn his ABCs as fast as other kids.He never came first in the schoolyard races.However,his smile was bright and he showed great interest in everything.So when he discovered that Randy was putting together a boy's basketball team,Kevin immediately joined.
At practice,Kevin worked so hard that you'd have thought he was preparing for the NBA.And the whole team truly loved basketball.But just loving the game doesn't help you win.They lost every game that season by a very large margin(差距),except one...that night it snowed and the other team couldn't make it to the game.
At the end of the season,the boys unfortunately played against the first-place team.The game went pretty much as expected,and near the middle of the fourth quarter Kevin's team stood nearly 30 points behind.At that point,one of Kevin's teammates called time-out."Coach,this is our last game but Kevin has never made a basket.We should let him try," said the boy.With the game completely out of reach,the idea seemed reasonable.So every time Kevin's team had the ball,they would give it to Kevin.His first shot missed and he missed another shot again.This continued a few more times until the player from the other team grew wise.Instead of running off down the court,he threw the ball to Kevin who shot...and missed again.
Soon,all the players were circling Kevin,throwing the ball to him.The whole gymnasium thundered with the clapping,chanting,"Kevin!Kevin!" Finally,after amounts of tries,the ball went in.Kevin's arms shot high into the air and he shouted,"I won!I won!" The first-place team remained unbeaten,but on that evening,everyone left the game truly feeling like a winner.
(1)、What helped Kevin's team "win" one game that season?A、Their improved skills. B、Kevin's hard work. C、The other team's absence. D、The pleasant weather.(2)、Why did one of Kevin's teammates call time-out?A、To get their coach's directions. B、To give Kevin a chance to shoot. C、To have a break and gather strength. D、To discuss strategies to win the game.(3)、What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A、Kevin's team failed due to his bad skills. B、Kevin's teammates were all experienced. C、The first-place team lost the game in the end. D、All the players and audience gave Kevin encouragement.(4)、Which of the following best describes Kevin?A、Positive. B、Generous. C、Independent.

A 16th century drawing by one of the key figures of the German Renaissance has been valued in excess of $10 million after it was initially purchased at a yard sale for just $30 in 2017.According to Agnews Gallery—the London auction house in possession of the artwork—Albrecht Dürer,who died in 1528,is regarded as both the greatest German artist of his time and as one of the most important artists and intellectuals of the European Renaissance.The drawing that has been rediscovered is titled "The Virgin and Child".As Dürer's career and legacy have been studied in depth since his death,it is extremely rare to find unknown works of his.
Boston-based art collector Clifford Schorer,who is a consultant to the gallery,added Thursday that he came across the rare artwork,thought to have been completed in 1503,by chance on the way to a party in Massachusetts in 2019.He had forgotten to bring a gift to the party,so he went to a bookstore,which sold collectable volumes.The bookseller told him his friend had a Dürer drawing and asked if he would take a look at it.Schorer agreed,but held out little hope.
The artwork had been purchased at a yard sale at the home of an architect who had been gifted the piece from his art dealer father,Schorer said."Generally speaking,it's an inverse(反向的) relationship between how dramatic the claim is and how much of a let down it is.For example if someone tells me they have a Leonardo da Vinci,I'm usually pretty confident I'm going to see some images that are unimpressive," Schorer said.
But when he arrived to examine the artwork weeks later,he was taken aback by its quality."It was like experiencing a kind of electricity.When you're in my world you spend your life looking for unknown things that lead to fascinating research avenues...and I could see I was at the beginning of something extremely exciting," Schorer said.
(1)、Why is it rare to find the unknown works of Albrecht Dürer's?A、He was a key figure of the German Renaissance. B、His real works were only sold at the yard sales. C、His works were studied carefully after he died. D、He had few works like "The Virgin and Child".(2)、What did Clifford Schorer do on his way to a party?A、He went to buy a gift. B、He collected old volumes. C、He went to a gallery. D、He visited his old friends.(3)、Why did Clifford Schorer mention the example of Leonardo da Vinci?A、To show the value of Dürer's drawing. B、To describe his contradictory feelings. C、To improve his own confidence in art. D、To show the painting is unimpressive.(4)、The underlined phrase "taken aback" in the last paragraph may mean ____.A、sold B、shocked C、excited D、excused -
