41、This is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February. Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a c

42、ondition in which the bodys temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops.

43、ter. The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits (or advantages) of cold-water swimming.
