A

My father always had a ready smile and a kind word. When I was little, he often took me fishing or to the park. We were close then, and I wanted to grow up to be just like Dad. Then things began to change. I could never find time to do things with him any more, We used to argue a lot and I knew it was me who usually started it.

Dad tried to talk to me, but it was hard on both of us. I was embarrassed(使...为难） ---- he had never learned to read and dropped out of school to take a job in a car repair shop.

Then he started to behave strangely. He'd stay up late at night, and when I saw him the next morning there would be dark circles around his eyes. One night I found out why.

It was cold so I decided to get another blanket to warm up my bed. the kitchen light was still on and I went to turn it off. Looking around the corner, I saw my father at the kitchen table, with a book in front of him and a pen in his hand. He was reading slowly and quietly. After a while I recognized the words as Dr. Seuss's“Cat in the Hat”. I bought the book when I was little and had asked my father to read it to me. I remembered how his face turned red as he handed it back to me and said, “Sorry, son.” Now, as I heard the familiar words coming from his lips, I was stunned.

I never mentioned my discovery but I began to have more respect for my father. I often asked him for advice and spent more time with him.

One summer day, I came to find a new car in our garage. “Hope you like it,” my father said. The three words were on the tip of my tongue, but I still could not tell him that I loved him.

Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.

Some 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(球场)in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.

There are many environment-friendly sport. 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.

Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener 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’s free.
