主題語境:運(yùn)動(dòng)與環(huán)保 篇幅:271詞 建議用時(shí):5分鐘
1Sports help you keep fit and get in touch with nature.However,whether you are in the mountains,in the waves,or on the grassland,you should be aware that your choice of sport might have a great influence on the environment.
2Some sports are resource-hungry.Golf,as you may know,eats up not only large areas of countryside,but also tons of water.Besides,all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses (球場(chǎng)) in good condition.This causes major environmental effects.For example,in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain,golf is often responsible for serious water shortages in some local areas.
3There are many environment-friendly sports.Power walking is one of them that you could take up today.You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes,and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse.Simple and free,power walking can also keep you fit.If you walk regularly,it will be good for your heart and bones.Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious,sleep well and have better weight control.
4Whatever sport you take up,you can makeitgreener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials.But the final goal should be“green gyms”.They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers.Members of green gyms play sports outdoors,in the countryside or other open spaces.There is no special requirement for you to start your membership.And best of all,it is free.
