Walking is a great way to get in shape without breaking the bank(it’s free and you do it every day). But there are other benefits to this exercise that you may not have realized. Here are some fun facts to encourage you to lace up your walking shoes.
In his book, The Lost Art of Walking, Geoff Nicholson praises the virtues of walking, and explains how and why we walk. Besides providing physical, psychological and social benefits, this simple, free activity can transform your life, he suggests. In his opinion, walking can promote good health, keep you mentally refreshed, allow for social bonding and let you see the world around you.
From a health perspective, walking is the key to managing weight, controlling blood pressure, and reducing the risk of a stroke, breast cancer, diabetes(糖尿病)and other diseases. A brisk daily walk lengthens your life, decreases the risk of depression and improves your mood and sense of well-being.
From a psychological viewpoint, walking offers an opportunity to clarify thoughts, to solve problems and to reduce stress. If you establish a rhythm that is relaxing and peaceful, walking can also become a form of meditation(思考).
Walking regularly with someone else enables a friendship to blossom as the pair of you exercise. You can also schedule regular walk "dates" with your spouse or partner and use the time to discuss issues without distractions.
Also, the best way to explore some of the world’s great cities—such as New York, London, Paris and Rome—is on foot. Walking stimulates the senses and enables you to enjoy a rich engagement with life around you. According to Nicholson, the poet William Wordsworth toured round the world seven times during his lifetime. Wordsworth reputedly delighted in the simple truth that "going for a walk is an invitation for surprise".
According to the author, why can walking strengthen people’s friendship?
选项
A、It makes people have time to talk without being disturbed.
B、It makes people have time to exercise.
C、It makes people havs time to go sightseeing.
D、It makes people have time to date.
答案
A
解析
第五段第二句提到,你可以通过安排好步行时间,和配偶或者伴侣进行“约会”,从而利用这段时间不受干扰地讨论问题。由此可知A)“步行可以让人们有时间并不受打扰地讨论问题”最为接近原文的意思。
