If sports arent going to be your future, then why should you play them? Why should you train every day? Why should you work hard and feel sore (酸痛的) the next day? Wouldnt it be better to forget sports and only pay attention to your lessons?In fact, there are a lot of reasons to play sports. First of all, sports are a great way to exercise. Exercising keeps you healthy and strong. It also helps you stay in a good condition. Finally, your body produces endorphins (脑内啡) when you exercise. Endorphins give you more energy and make you feel happier.Sports are important for everyone, and they are especially important for young people. They teach young people about winning and losing. Also, they teach young people how to communicate and work as a team. Sports teach young people to respect their coaches, teammates and players from the other team. Many reports say that sports help young people stay out of trouble. If a young person plays sports, he or she may have fewer problems. This is because sports teach people about rules. They also teach people that if they work hard, they might succeed.Another good way of sports is that they make people leave their houses. These days, a lot of people spend too much time watching television and playing video games. When you play sports, you go outside and exercise in the sun. You take in fresh air. All of these things are important.Maybe youre not going to become a sports professional, but that doesnt matter, sports will help you become a better and happier person. Sports will help you make friends and stay healthy. Here is another reason to play sports: Sports are fun.36 . How many reasons for sports are mentioned in Paragraph 2? _ATwoBThreeCFiveDFour37 .

The coming years, however, will give way to a personalized approach(个性化手段）to home construction (住宅建设). The houses will be an instrument of self-expresion. “The successful builders will be the ones that figure out how to change their production model enough to make the buyers feel like they are really getting something that is designed for them, not just a model,” says Kermit Baker, the chief economist(首席经济学家）at the American Institute of Architects.Future home will probablyshrink. “We will be building smaller but smarter houses, says Ed McMahon, a senior resident fellow(高级研究员) at the Urban Land Institute.“Instead of having a room for just one use, consumers will demand homes that make better use of space,” says Susanka, whose best-selling book, The Not So Big House, has a great influence in home design. Seldom-used quarters, such as dining and living rooms, will be replaced with space that can serve both functions. “The goal of his right-size, home is to fit its owners like a specially cut suit rather than a jacket you buy in a store,” says Susanka.40 .
