36、it! Its all in defining what an active vacation is. We dont expect you to take up joggi ng, backpack ing, or hang glid ing. we ask the sede ntary （愛坐的） vacatio ners to spe nd two to four hours a day doing thi ngs, such as walk ing the city streets, explori ng a n ature preserve, or taking a leisurel

37、y rowboat ride. These kinds of activities arent just good for your physical health. They improve your men tal health, even your spiritual health. And they make vacati ons memorable and worthwhile. Here are some fresh ideas for active and healthy vacatio n. Make the morning your activity time. At tha

38、t time it is most likely that the weather will be friendlier, your energy level higher, and your schedule emptier than later in the day. Have a walk at dawn or dusk. Such activity is called rejuven ati on（恢復(fù)活力） .Try to make this a daily rout ine of life away from home, and you will guara ntee yourse

39、lf both physical and spiritual youth. Get into the water as much as you can . Dont allow yourself to spend your entire time sitting in front of the water. Whether it is the ocean, a swimming pool, or a tree-lined lake, make sure you get into the water for swim ming or games or even walk ing. Merely

40、sta nding in waist-high water is a good workout, tha nks to the action of the water. And youll feel so much more alive! Choose a cruise for your trip. Its amaz ing how active you can be being stuck on a boat i n the middle of the Atlantic. Most cruise ships offer numerous options for seaworthy exerc

41、ise. During your sea and land trips you can burn calories as you swim, hike, dive, and horseback ride. Get out of the car every two hours. Many of us spend a large part of our vacations on the road, either getti ng to and from our dest in ati ons, or using the car for sightsee ing. But no matter how

42、 beautiful the sce nery is, great and memorable vacations dont happen in a car seat. Dont wait for tiredness or natures call to get you to pull over. Frequently get out and stretch, walk, picnic, shop, visit, and have fun. Its important for your health and en ergy, and it makes traveli ng a lot more

46、 to study for ameayntake priority （ 優(yōu)先）over pizza. Your instructor may have good reasons not to change your grade. And the object of your romantic interest may, alas, have other choices. In such a world, persuasion is the art of getting others to give fair and favorable consideration to our point of

47、 view. When we persuade, we want to in flue nee how others believe and behave. We may not always win-other points of view may be more persuasive, depending on the listener, the situation, and the merits of the case. But when we practice the art of persuasion, we try to ensure that our position recei

48、ves the attention it deserves. Some people, however, object to the very idea of persuasion. They may regard it as an unwelcome intrusion（侵?jǐn)_）into their lives or as a control or domination. In contrast, we believe that persuasion is unavoidable-to live is to persuade. Persuasion may be ethical or unet

49、hical, selfless or selfish, inspiring or un pleasa nt. Persuaders may en lighte n our minds or take adva ntage of our weak ness. Ethical persuasi on, however, calls on sound reas oning and is sen sitive to the feeli ngs and n eeds of liste ners. Such persuasi on can help us apply the wisdom of the p

50、ast to the decisi ons we now must make. Therefore, an esse ntial part of educati on is lear ning to resist the one kind of persuasi on and to en courage and practice the other. Beyond its personal importance to us, persuasion is essential to society. The right to persuade and be persuaded is the fou

55、resources like sun, wind and water. But it also leads to a fossil fuel. Natural gas is con sidered the clea nest of the fossil fuels, the fuel created by pla nt and animal remains over millions of years. Burning it releases fewer pollutants than oil or coal. The gas is mainly metha ne （甲烷）.It produc

56、es half the carb on dioxide of other fossil fuels. So it may help cut the product ion of carb on gases lin ked to climate cha nge. Russia is first in what are called proved reserves of natural gas. The United States is sixth. Over the years, big oil and gas companies recovered much of the easily rea

57、ched supplies of gas in America. They drilled straight down into formations where gas collects. As these supplies were used up, big drillers looked for similar formations in other countries.

58、ock two to three thousand meters underground. They drill down to the shale, then go sideways and inject high-pressure water, sand or other material into the rock. This causes the rock to fracture, releas ing the gas. Huge fields of gas shale are believed to lie un der the Appalachia n Mountains, Mic

59、higa n and the south-ce ntral states. Gas shale exploration is being done mainly by small to medium sized companies. Eric Potter, a program director, says more than half the gas in the United States is now coming from these new reserves. But hydraulic（ 液壓的）fracturi ng can also produce debate and an

60、ger over the risk of groun dwater polluti on. This method of drilli ng is not federally supervised un der the Safe Drinking Water Act. Some in Con gress want to end that exempti on （豁免）from the law. Natural gas provides America ns with about one fourth of their en ergy. And, un like oil, most of it
