Cold weather during winter months, with low temperatures and freezing cold winds, may keep many people from running in the open air .However, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, running in cold weather helps improve ones performance. Many runners might find it easier to run in winter than in hot weather.Lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is lower .And the body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather because dehydration levels are lower in winter than in warmer conditions . John Brewer is a professor of applied sports science at ST. Marys University in London. For this study, he and other researchers put a group of people into a room where summer and winter weather conditions are recreated. The test subjects, were asked to run 10,000 meters under both conditions and their biological measurements were recorded and studied.From the study, every movement runners make produces heat .The heat can be really damaging unless the body can lose it .One way in which people lose heat is by sweating. The body loses heat through droplets of sweet. The body also loses it by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin and it puts more stress on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because its much harder to lose heat when the outside environment is warm. As the result shows running in hot temperatures results in 6 percent higher heart rates.When running in cold conditions, the body does not have to work hard to pump blood to the skin surface .Therefore, it requires less energy.The most important things for people who run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. Keep as dry as possible when exercising in low temperatures. Wear mittens on your hands instead of gloves. Wear more than one layer of clothing to keep sweat away from your skin.So dont let winter weather keep you indoors. Simply get ready for the low temperatures and start running.（1）Why do most people dislike running outdoors in winter ? A . Its too cold.B . Its hard to run.C . Its too easy to sweat .D . Its bad for the heart rate .（2）What does the underline word dehydration in Paragraph 3 means the loss of _from the body.

It was easier to re create different weather conditions.D . It was easier to record their biological measurements.（4）What should people wear while running in cold winter? A . A hat .B . Gloves.C . More clothing.D . More than one layer of clothing（5）Whats the purpose of the passage ? A . To tell people not to run in summer .B . To describe how runners run in winter .C .

But how do you find real friendship and keep it?The American writer Sally Seamans tells young students some smart ways to find friends. Sally says founding friendship is just like planting a tree. You plant the seed (种子) and take care of it to make it grow.First, you should choose a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks. A good friend should be kind and patient. For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend could listen to your complaints (抱怨) and do his or her best to help you. To make a friend, you cant be too shy. You should make each other happy and share your lives.But things can not always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to him or her. When there is no one around, have a good talk. If he or she doesnt want to talk, you can write a letter.There are three steps to be friends again:Tell him or her how you are feeling, say what your friend did wrong and talk about why you did this or that.
