The right pair of exercise shoes can do a lot to prevent discomfort and injuries, personal trainers say. Here are some shopping tips:
71 Depending on your workout, shoes designed for walking, running, tennis, cross-training or another specialty will provide the best support for your feet.
Shop when you normally exercise. Feet actually get bigger throughout the day, sometimes swelling up as much as a half-size by nighttime. 72
Try them on. Never grab a pair of exercise shoes based only on the size of footwear you normally buy. Bring the type of socks you’d wear to work out and go for a walk through the store.
73 You should be able to spread your toes out comfortably. Make sure there’s about a half-inch of space between them and the front of the shoe. The back should fit snugly (warmly and comfortably) against your heel and not move up and down. If your feet are different sizes, buy based on the larger one.
Talk to an expert. Shoe salesmen and personal trainers can study your stride (步伐) and the shape of your feet. 74
75 Many trainers recommend switching footwear every three to five months, if possible, to maintain proper cushioning and support.
One tip: if you have to tie your shoes very tightly to feel a good amount of support, they may be ready to go.
A.Think about how much you can afford to buy the workout shoes. |
B.Consider your type of exercise. |
C.Focus on fit. |
D.So don’t shop first thing in the morning if you often work out in the evening. |
E. Pay more attention to new style shoes.
F. Replace worn shoes regularly.
G. Usually they can recommend the best shoes to guard against injuries.

When Mrs. Joseph Groeger died recently in Vienna, Austria, people asked, "Why did she live to be 107?". 48 were provided by a survey conducted among 148 Viennese men and women who had reached the age of 100. Somewhat surprising was the fact 49 the majority had lived most of their lives in cities. 50 the city's image as an unhealthy place, yet city living often provides benefits that country living can lack. One factor seems to be important to the longevity (长寿) of those interviewed.
This factor is exercise. In the cities it is often faster to walk short distances than 51 wait for a bus. Even taking public transportation often requires some walking. Smaller apartment houses have 52 elevators (电梯), and so people must climb stairs. City people can usually walk to local supermarkets. 53 parking spaces are hard to find, there is often no alternative to walking.
On the other hand, those who live in the 54 and suburbs do not have to walk every day. In fact, the opposite is often true. To go to school, work, or almost anywhere 55 , they must ride in cars.

Every boy and every girl expects their parents to give them more pocket money. Why do their parents just give them a certain amount? 51
The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. 52 Some children get weekly pocket money. Others get monthly pocket money.
First of all, children are expected to make a choice between spending and saving. Then parents should make the children understand what is expected to pay for with the money. At first, some young children may spend all of the money soon after they receive it. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until it is the right time. 53
In order to encourage their children to do some housework, some parents give pocket money if the children help around the home. Some experts think it not wise to pay the children for doing that. 54
Pocket money can give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with
the money. They can spend it by giving it to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. 55 Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice. Saving can also open the door to future saving and investing for children.
A.They can save it for future use.
B Timing is another consideration.
C.As helping at home is a normal part of family life.
D Some children are not good at managing their pocket money.
E.Learning how to get money is very important for every child.
F.One main purpose is to let kids learn how to manage their own money.
G.By doing so, these children will learn that spending must be done with a budget(预算).
