However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment. Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场)in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas. There are many environment-friendly sport. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You dont need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you dont have to worry about resources and your purse.

Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control. Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces.

Xie doesnt seem too upset about the separation. Thats because he is talking about his Net life. He spent a couple of hours everyday with his sweetheart in their apartment: feeding their dog, watering flowers in the garden, and cooking.Of course, he had never met his wife before he divorced her. Net marriage is becoming increasingly popular among university students. Some, like Xie, the game for fun, while others use it for other reasons. Xu Gang, a student at one of the universities in Shanghai, said that living a Net life allows him to own everything he cant afford in real life. Todays girls are practical. Many of them dream of marrying a man with a car and a big house. I can afford all those things on the Internet. he said.It only costs him four hours online every day and 100 yuan per month to recharge his game account. Though fans like Xu only see the good points of the game, some people think living an imaginary life is harmful. I t shows the emptiness in the students emotional world. said Wu Yeyu, a youth psychology(心理学) expert. Creating a Garden of Eden in your mind could hurt you. Once youve realized the distance between the ideal and the reality, it will be a heavy blow. However, other experts think that Net marriage , to some degree, will help build a sense of responsibility,which might help in the real marriage, later in life.64. The writer of the passage is trying to give . A. his opinions about marriage and divorce B. some advice from university professors C. some information about online marriage D. a description of university students busy lives65. Xu Gang lives a Net life mainly in order to .

From the last paragraph, we can infer that . A. more university students are experienceing online life B. universities should provide a looser environment for students C. students should spend more time surfing the Internet D. online marriage is a double-edged sword D To protect you and your fellow passengers, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is required by law to inspect(检查) all checked baggage.
