If you want to get healthy or stay healthy, there is one easy activity for you---walking.You may think that simply taking a walk is not enough to make a big difference.

You may think that you need to do something like running to stay healthy. Well, a new study says that is not true.It finds out that walking may be as good for us as running.

Running is a high-impact(高强度的) activity and can be hard on the body. So, many people cannot run. Walking seems to have all of the advantages and none of the disadvantages of running.

Dr Russell Pate is a professor of exercise science at the Arnold School of Public Health at the University of South Carolina. He says, "Walking is one of the easiest and safest exercises a person can do. You do not need to learn a lot to get results."

Walking needs no special skills or equipment, You can do it anywhere. It fits easily into your daily schedule(日程表). You can walk at work. You can walk if you want to go shopping. You can take the stairs instead of the lift.

Walking is a great exercise for beginners. If you are out of shape or getting back into shape after an illness or accident, walking is perfect. You can do a little at a time, or as we like to say, take baby steps.

（26）The new study shows that________.

A.running is better than walking.

C.walking and running are not good enough.

The only way I could go to work was by train in the UK. But now, I go to work by train or by bus every day. So I would like to give you my comparisons between trains in France and the UK.

I was surprised when I found trains run every two hours in France. This is a real problem because sometimes I have to wait at the station for a long time. In the UK, we usually wait for at

most30 minutes.Just like in the UK, the trains sometimes are delayed (延误) in France. There is nothing else I can do in the village before the train arrives. So I have to wait at the station. Once, I had to wait for

four hours. I even wanted to cry when the train arrived at last.Although there are some things I don't like about trains in France, they have some especially good points. I like the uniforms that all workers wear at train stations in France, I think the workers are very friendly and helpful. What's more, the buildings are very large and special.

（46）Which country does Tom come from?
