英语文本

精听建议：

先完整地把一条新闻听一到三遍，争取掌握大意。然后，一句一句精听，力争每句话都听明白。遇到实在不懂的地方，再听写。

下面的文本材料中空缺部分里面要填的词都很简单，不过是一些值得注意的连读或者典型的美式发音哦，有些语速比较快。试试看，你能不能全部写对？

（参考文本，欢迎指出错误^^）

中文翻译和词汇注释

跑步

你的心脏随着脚步的移动以同样的速度跳动。你大步行走，慢慢加速，直到步伐稳定。你的运动鞋反复拍打着人行道，微风吹拂在你的脸上。
跑步是一种享受户外、锻炼肌肉、减肥、保持健康的好办法。跑步也是其他大多数运动的重要组成部分。所以，如果你想踢足球，打篮球，或者其他对速度、耐力或整体健康有要求的运动，跑步对你很有帮助。
跑步经常与田径队联系在一起，但大多数跑步的人是独自练习的。跑步最酷的地方就是总有一种跑步方式符合你的兴趣、能力和态度。你可以以任何速度，跑任何距离，和很多或者很少的人一起跑，只要你喜欢。许多青少年发现跑步是保持健康和强健的很好的方法。让我们听听他们是怎么说的吧。“跑步让我放松。我喜欢跑步并尽可能地练习。”“我两年前和姐姐一起开始跑步。我每天至少跑两英里。”“我最喜欢做的事就是长跑，因为它具有挑战性。我喜欢把我自己推向极限，看自己可以跑多远。”“我喜欢跑步因为学校里的孩子总是取笑我，跑步可以使我避开他们，它让我释放在学校里的压力。”
