Short and frequent hikes, needing no planning or special equipme
12、nt, are enjoyed by most people.To enjoy hiking, people need to know the following items:-Keep in shape by walking at a fast pace for at least 15 minutes every day.

17、eded in hikingBWhat is language for?Some people seem to think its for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of wordsthe longer the lists, the better. However, its wrong. Language is for the exchange (交流) of ideas and information. Its meaningless knowing all about a language if you cant use it
18、freely. Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they cant speak correctly or fluently. They are afraid of making mistakes. People shouldnt be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. Native speakers make mistakes and break rules, too. Bernard Shaw once wrote:
19、“Foreigners often speak English too correctly.” But the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make. Theyre 5English mistakes in the English language. And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong becomes right. P
20、eople not only make history, but they make language. But a person can only make his own language. It cant make another peoples language.

24、ion,according to Forbes,the project will be no small fate(功绩 ) for Gates. Having already provided the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation with $24 billion to address global health issues,Gates said that finally his entire fortune will be put towards the cause of global health except “a few percent left
25、for the kids”So what has made the richest man in the world to channel his resources so heavily into one interest?Gates believes that “the equality of opportunity” in which Americans take such pride needs to extend to other nations around the world. Improving the health of the populations, he says,ha
26、s proven to be an 6essential method in helping poor countries to be financially successful.“National borders allow inequalities, ” said Gates.“We all need to take a more global view,rather than just saying my country is doing well. We have to step up these health issues,knowing how few resources are
27、 going into them.”Gates said that both his parents set up an example for him as a child. His father,William HGates ,was the head of the local Planned Parenthood,and his mother, Mary,volunteered for the United Way. As he gathered his fortune,Gates knew he would finally want to give back as well,but h
28、e didnt expect to devote himself wholeheartedly to one project until he was about 60. However,when Gates was still 47, he began to question his ability to wait that long. “It seemed there was a real time urgency, ” Gates said. “I started to think how many lives I could save before then.”28.

33、 and facing the facts and taking responsibility for their actions. But we should remember we will suffer consequences(后果) when we refuse to accept responsibility for our own actions.A baby learns that by throwing his food on the floor repeatedly,he will soon not get to enjoy the rest of his food any
34、 longer because it will be put away. Throwing food on the floor may seem like a game at first,but after a while the child will know that it is not a good thing to do. He learns to keep his food or he will stay hungry for a while. Older children,as well,need to be taught responsibility. If the parent
35、s or caregivers demonstrate a strong sense of responsibility and communicate to their children its importance,chances are that the children will also be willing to take responsibility. Children imitate what they see and hear. Parents need to listen to their children carefully when they speak in orde
36、r to know how and what they think or believe about different issues. They will be either praised or they will be corrected.

It is also important that the child should be reminded at first,but give him or her time to see if they will do it without being told or reminded. Everyone learns to be resp
