Do you want to work out to stay healthy? The following are some home workouts you can try.
HIIT Workout
Interval training (HIIT) uses high-intensity exercises combined with short rest periods to maximize calorie burn and cardiorespiratory (心肺的) fitness. There are two HIIT circuits (循环训练) for different people.
For beginners: start with 30 seconds of workout, followed by 30 seconds of rest.
For the advanced: do 45 seconds of workout and 15 seconds of rest.
Yoga
Yoga combines breathing techniques, meditation (冥想) and different poses designed to encourage relaxation and reduce stress. Practicing yoga comes with many benefits for both mental and physical health. It helps to reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality. Find a beginner workout and practice regularly, step by step.
CrossFit
When we think of CrossFit, probably the gym comes to our mind along with a lot of tools. At home and without these tools, CrossFit is a little more challenging, but not impossible. This is a good core workout:
Complete 5 rounds of:
·Ten sit-ups
·Five push-ups
·45-second plank
·Ten push-ups
·60-second plank
·Fifteen sit-ups
Please rest 60 seconds between rounds.
Pilates
Pilates is a whole-body fitness, adaptable to many fitness levels and needs, develops core strength, increases flexibility, improves posture and increases energy level.

Soon, you’ re going to have to move out!” cried my neighbor upon seeing the largest tomato plant known to mankind, or at least known in my neighborhood.
One tiny 9-inch plant, bought for $1. 25 in the spring, has already taken over much of my rose bed, covering much of other plants, and is well on its way to the front door.
Roses require a good deal of care, and if it weren’t for the pleasure they give, it wouldn’ t be worth the work. As it is, I have a garden full of sweet-smelling roses for most of the year. Bushes must be pruned (剪枝) in early spring, leaving ugly woody branches until the new growth appears a few weeks later. It was the space available in the garden that led me into planting just one little tomato plant. A big mistake.
Soil conditions made just perfect for roses turn out to be even more perfect for tomatoes. The daily watering coupled with full sun and regular fertilizing (施肥) have turned the little plant into a tall bush. The cage I placed around it as the plant grew has long disappeared under the thick leaves.
Now the task I face in harvesting the fruit is twofold. First, I have to find the red ones among the leaves, which means I almost have to stand on my head, and once found I have to reach down and under, pick the tomatoes and withdraw (缩回) my full fist without dropping the prize so dearly won. I found two full-blown white roses completely hidden as I picked tomatoes in June. But they were weak and the leaves already yellow for lack of light.
Here I am faced with a painful small decision: To tear up a wonderful and productive tomato plant that offers up between ten and twenty ripe sweet tomatoes each day or say goodbye to several expensive and treasured roses. Like Scarlett in Gone With the Wind, I’ ll think about that tomorrow.
24.What are the requirements for the healthy growth of rose?
A.Frequent pruning and fertilizing. B.A lot of care and the right soil.
C.Tomato plants grown alongside. D.Cages placed around the roots.
25.The writer planted the tomato plant because______.
A.there was room for it in the garden B.the soil was just right for it
C.it cost only $1. 25 D.the roses’ branches needed to be covered
26.This year the writer’s roses were_______.
A.removed from the rose bed B.largely hidden under the tomato plant
C.mostly damaged by too much sunlight D.picked along with the tomatoes
27.By saying “the prize so dearly won” in Paragraph 5, the writer wants to_________.
A.express her liking for the roses B.show the hardship of growing the roses
C.show the difficulty in picking the tomatoes D.express her care for the tomatoes
C
Are there any lakes in your hometown? What color are they? Around one-third of the world's lakes are blue, according to a study in September 2022. But global warming may lead them to turn green or even brown.
Xiao Yang from Southern Methodist University in the US and his team analyzed the color of over 85,000 lakes based on satellite photos taken from 2013 to 2020. They found that lakes in places with cooler average summer air temperatures — below 19°C — were more likely to be blue than lakes in places with warmer summers.
The color of a lake is in part decided by what's in the water. In warmer lakes, algae (藻) and phytoplankton (浮游植物) develop easily. These microbes (微生物) contain colors from green to brown and red, giving the lake a different color. Water molecules (分子) absorb the long wavelengths of sunlight, such as red, orange, and yellow, leaving behind the shorter ones presenting green and mostly blue. Simply put, the cleaner the water, the bluer it looks. If the temperature continues to rise with climate change unchecked, one in 10 blue lakes might change color, according to the study.
Lakes serve as a vital part of nature, with their color being one of the oldest ways to determine the health of an ecosystem. Humans get their drinking water from lakes, streams and ground water. As lakes become greener, people may lose lots of clean water. Because of this, treating the water of such lakes becomes more expensive. For lake animals, the thriving (茁壮成长) of algae and phytoplankton in greener lakes can provide more food resources. However, an increase in these microbes may cause lake animals to die for lack of oxygen.
28. What decides the color of lakes in part according to the text?
A. Microbes. B. Lake animals.
C. Clean water itself. D. Shortages of oxygen.
29. What can we learn from the study?
A. More microbes symbolize cleaner water.
B. Lakes in warmer places tend to be green.
C. Researchers took photos of over 85,000 lakes.
D. The higher the temperature, the greener the lakes must be.
30. What does the underlined word “unchecked” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Prevented. B. Uncontrolled. C. Quickened. D. Unnoticed.
31. What's the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The significance of lakes. B. The way to protect the lakes.
C. The potential impact of greener lakes. D. The influence of global warming on people.
D
Scientists from Georgia Tech have developed a new robot named ESTHER (Experimental Sport Tennis Wheelchair Robot), which can move around the court and even return human serves(击球).
The team believes the robot could serve as a training partner for professional players in the future, lowering the pressure of training with another human.
The robot is the brainchild of Georgia Tech’s Matthew Gombolay, professor of robotics in the School of Interactive Computing. He wanted to develop a better training challenge than a ball feeder that stays in one place, one that would act like an always on-call partner or even team up with someone in doubles matches. The result is ESTHER, an adapted wheelchair tennis chair that can race to balls at ten metres per second and probably outplay a human.
Mr Gombolay explains: “The wheelchair has the ability to rapidly move around the court and get into position (恰当位置) to hit a ground stroke (击落地球). ESTHER can move up to two metres after a ball is struck to hit a successful return, which is comparable to the longest distance moved by human players for 80 per cent of shots.”
The robot was named in homage to well-known wheelchair tennis player Esther Vergeer, who held the world No. 1 position in women’s wheelchair tennis for almost 13 years straight.
The team placed a network of cameras around a tennis court and used computer vision algorithms (视觉算法) to help ESTHER recognise an incoming tennis ball. Using cameras from different positions, they could know the direction of the ball in the air and feed this information to ESTHER. The team reached a breakthrough when they successfully and continually programmed ESTHER to track the tennis ball coming toward it and to hit a return.
ESTHER will now be developed to act as a highly-skilled tennis player.
32. What is ESTHER able to do?
A. Return a shot. B. Clean up a court. C. Push a wheelchair. D. Control a ball feeder.
33. What does the underlined part “in homage to” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. In search of. B. In honour of. C. As a result of. D. With the help of.
34. In what way are cameras helpful to ESTHER?
A. They improve ESTHER’s vision. B. They direct ESTHER to find the ball.
C. They help ESTHER stay in position. D. They picture unexpected things in the air.
35.What is the best title for the text?
A. Athletes in wheelchairs B. An all-purpose robot at home
C. Rules are changing for tennis courts D. A robot moves around the tennis court

Having the skills to keep good emotional health is important if we want to succeed in our lives. And it’s especially important to adjust our emotions when we are faced with difficult situations. 36 So our ability to have skills to manage both our positive and negative emotions is key. There are many ways to maintain or even improve our emotional health.
Stay connected. While living alone can be fun and interesting, you may feel lonely especially while passing through difficult times in life. Community is important. 37 Online connections are good, but seeing someone in person once in a while is helpful, too.
Exercise, physical and mental health are interrelated. Staying physically active for at least 30 minutes a day can help to improve your overall emotional health. So why not take on a daily workout routine (惯例)? But you don’t have to make the workout too hard. 38
Find meaning in your life. Some people have jobs that give them a feeling of purpose, but that’s not the only way to find meaning in your life. 39 Something as simple as caring for a pet or volunteering for a cause that you’re passionate about can also give you that feeling.
40 You don’t have to handle negative emotions on your own. Knowing when to reach out to a mental health professional for help with difficult emotions is a useful skill to have. You should also reach out to one if you have tried to improve your emotional health, but still aren’t feeling your best.
A.Know when to turn to somebody else.
B.Set goals and celebrate your achievements.
C.Just going for a walk around your house can help.
D.We are sure to face challenges in our personal lives.
E.Having good emotional health is a part of self-awareness.

After Mrs. Wagner introduced the new student as Sarah, she pushed the wheelchair toward me. Why was the only empty desk next to me? I shrank in my seat.
With Sarah sitting beside me, the morning seemed to be ages. When the break bell rang, Mrs. Wagner asked, “Natalie, would you play with Sarah? She could need a friend.”
How am I supposed to play with Sarah? I wondered. She can’t even walk. No way!
At lunchtime, I hung behind. “Mrs. Wagner,” I asked, “can... can I have my seat changed?”
“Why?” asked Mrs. Wagner.
I stared at the floor and murmured, “Well, maybe someone else would like to sit by Sarah.” Mrs. Wagner placed her hand on my shoulder. “Sarah not only has special needs, she has feelings, too. Give it a try.”
My eyes stung. This wasn’t fair! I didn’t want to be Sarah’s friend. And if Mrs. Wagner didn’t care about my feelings, why should I care about Sarah’s? All afternoon, I did my best to ignore Sarah. I only glanced at her once and caught her smiling.
At three o’clock, Mrs. Wagner said to the class, “Time to put on your sports shoes.” As I bent over to tie my shoes, I studied Sarah’ s. There wasn’t a single scuff(磨损) mark on them. I wondered what it would be like to never walk, never run, never climb a tree or ride a bike. My throat felt tight.
Mrs. Wagner tapped my back. “Natalie, would you please help Sarah be a part of PE class?”
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
