Another popular form of exercise is jogging (慢跑). 2. In the 1970s. Bill Bowerman brought jogging to the USA. He did so after seeing the popularity of the activity during a trip to New Zealand in the 1960s. He started the first jogging club in America. He also helped and found Nike.
Swimming is also very popular. It was the second most popular sporting activity in America in 2008. The top activity was walking. When one is swimming, the whole body is put to work. 3. It is said that swimming is good for people with special needs, like pregnant(怀孕的) women.
Dancing can also be a fun way to exercise. 4. This is especially true for those who see exercise as something that they should do.

What’s social phobia (恐惧症)? It’s a strong fear being talked about by others. 【1】 They prefer not to go out much, and it’s hard for them to make new friends or socialize. But is this a “real” disease?
In fact, this is just a reaction (反应) to certain social situations. US researcher Ty Tashiro wrote a book that explains that some people don’t “read” social situations correctly and so they end up feeling uncomfortable. 【2】 As a result, they start to act embarrassingly because they don’t want this to happen. This might make them refuse to socialize or find it hard to do so. They gradually prefer to stay in instead of going out to meet new people. 【3】
“Real” social phobia can be described as social anxiety (焦虑) and it’s much more serious. People with social anxiety want to go out and communicate with people, but they’re so afraid of doing it that they cannot leave their homes. 【4】 People with social phobia disease may experience panic attacks (惊慌失措) and other moments.
Luckily, social anxiety can be treated. 【5】 Those who have more serious cases of social anxiety can take medicine to treat their disease.
A.Some people simply use self-help books to help them control over their minds.
B.But this doesn’t mean they have social phobia.
C.Some young people describe themselves as having “social phobia”.
D.For example, they might be afraid of breaking some kind of unspoken rule.
E.Their brains simply won’t allow them to communicate with others in a normal way.
F.Have you ever heard of social phobia?
27、When the Audet family turns on the lights at Blue Farm, they are using electricity that comes from cows—cow manure (粪肥), to be specific.
Cows produce a lot of wastes. One cow can create 30 gallons of wastes each day. Now imagine t he output of over 1,000 cows at Blue Farm. That’s really a big amount.
When farmers clean their barns, they put the wastes in a big heap, and spread some of them on their fields for fertilizer(肥料). But now places like Blue Spruce Farm have a new way of using cow wastes. They use them to produce electricity.
Here’s how it works: A big machine moves back and forth cleaning the barn floor. “The cows aren’t bothered,” says Marie Audet. “They are animals of habit; they get used to it, and just lift one foot and then another to let it go by.”
The machine pushes the manure into a big 600-gallon tank like a small swimming pool. The tank is called a digester (化粪池) because what happens there is just like what happens inside a cow: Bacteria(细菌) get to work and continue to digest the manure.
Methane gas (甲烷、沼气)in the atmosphere is known as a “greenhouse” gas because it keeps heat just like a greenhouse does, causing our planet to warm up. That’s an environmental concern. But the digester has a good result. Its gas is kept and used to power electric generators (发电机).
At Blue Farm, the generators make enough electricity to power 400 homes. The Audet family sells the extra electricity they can’t use themselves.
【1】We learn from the text that the Audet family is using cow wastes to ______.
A. make electricity B. produce fertilizer
C. build their farm D. feed the cows
【2】How are the cow wastes collected into the digester at Blue Farm?
A. Marie Audet does the work
B. The job is done by machine
C. The cows lift the cow wastes
D. Bacteria get to work on them
【3】 According to the passage, which of the following is changed into electricity?
A. The power of moving water.
B. The heat of burning coal.
C. The power of sunlight.
D. The heat of the methane gas
【4】The new way of using cow wastes at Blue Farm might be best described as ______.
A. reducing B. saving
C. recycling D. changing
【5】What is the main purpose for writing the passage?
A. To introduce a new way o f making electri city
B. To explain how a new energy works better
C. To show a new rebuilding plan for a big farm
D. To explain the reasons for green house effect
