福建省莆田第一中学2022-2023学年高一下学期第一学段(期中)考试英语试题
福建省莆田第一中学2022-2023学年高一下学期第一学段(期中)考试英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解There are apps for almost everything. Here are some of the best free apps that are well received by smartphone users.StorySignStorySign is designed to help deaf children learn to read. With a book in hand, just point your phone’s camera at the page and an animated character in StorySign will read the page in sign language. And children will both enjoy the books and learn to read in the process. Even in its limited form, StorySign is well worth trying if you have a deaf child young enough to appreciate it, but we expect this app will keep getting better as its library grows.PlantNetWherever you are, chances are there are hundreds of different plant species within walking distance, and most of us have no idea what all but the most common are called. PlantNet aims to make identifying them easier — simply take a photo and the app will attempt to identify what kind of plant you’re seeing.Google PhotosGoogle Photos stands out among hundreds of photo apps, as it gives you unlimited storage for photos and videos. But with basic editing tools and the ability to make albums, it’s more than just photo and video storage. It aims to be your first and last stop after taking a picture. To achieve that, it will need a few more steps, but it’s well on its way.SoonSoon is an app that lets you create lists of books you want to read, movies you want to watch, restaurants you want to try and more. You can select from a number of categories, including games, shops, bars, museums and TV shows and then make a list of the ones that interest you. It’s a great app for anyone struggling to remember the things they want to watch, visit, read, play and listen to.1.Who is StorySign mainly intended for?A.Any child fond of stories.B.Children with hearing loss.C.Any child who enjoys reading.D.Children interested in sign language.2.What do Google Photos and StorySign share?A.They both need improving.B.They both allow users to share. C.They both offer unlimited storage.D.They both focus on photos and videos. 3.What can we learn about the apps from the text?A.Users can learn to write and talk through StorySign.B.Google Photos can only be used to store data.C.PlantNet helps identify and plant or animal.D.Soon is especially suitable for forgetful people.David and Jessica Burnett were at the Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport about to board a flight with their two small children when they saw their son, Ezekiel, 5, throw his beloved stuffed (填充的) bear high above his head. David Burnett warned his son not to throw Teddy too high. Ezekiel kept playing his catch game and threw Teddy more than 20 feet. This time the bear didn’t come down. It was stuck in the rafters (椽子) at the Milwaukee airport, and there wasn’t time to ask anyone for help because it was time to board their flight home to Dallas.The couple did their best to comfort Ezekiel and his concerned sister, Zaria, on the flight home and were relieved when Ezekiel seemed content to sleep with a favorite stuffed dog that night. “We didn’t call the airport because Ezekiel has lost a lot of toys over the years,” said Jessica Burnett, 39. “I did feel some mom guilt, so later I bought him a bear online that looked similar to Teddy.”Then on the evening of Feb. 8, Jessica said she spotted a familiar face on Facebook. Somebody at the airport noticed Teddy in the lost lockup area and posted about him a: couple of times on Facebook, Some of the photos showed him hanging out with a purple monkey named Violet the airport’s longest lost stuffed animal. Airport workers regularly post about missing toys and stuffed animals and they had tried unsuccessfully to find Violet’s owner for two years. They hoped to have better luck with Teddy.The big moment finally happened when the family caught a plane back to Dallas about a year later. When Ezekiel saw his lost bear, he hugged Teddy and told airport workers that he was happy to see him again. “I think they took good care of him. But I’m glad he’s home,” he said. “I won’t be throwing my favorite bear into the air again anytime.”4.What happened to Teddy at the Milwaukee airport?A.It was broken during a game.B.It was lost in the waiting room.C.It was trapped somewhere beyond reach.D.It was given to a girl by Ezekiel’s mom. 5.What did Ezekiel’s mom do to relieve her guilt?A.She kept contacting the airport.B.She bought Ezekiel a similar toy. C.She made a stuffed dog for Ezekiel.D.She shared the experience on Facebook. 6.Which of the following can best describe the airport workers?A.Patient and courageous.B.Organized and efficient. C.Responsible and caring.D.Experienced and hardworking. 7.What is the best title for the text?A.Dallas boy’s adventurous journey B.Dallas boy’s love of his Teddy bear C.Dallas boy competed in catch game D.Dallas boy reunited with his Teddy bearA star athlete at the college where I work recently stopped by my office. After committing a few unforced errors during a weekend match, she suffered severely byself-criticism.This student, like many I teach, strongly believes she should be able to control the outcomes of her life by virtue of her hard work. In her mind, “Nothing can stop me but myself”. So when these students fall short of what they imagine they should accomplish, they are filled with self-blame, reasoning, “If my accomplishments are mine to control, my failures must be entirely my faults, too”, which makes it extremely difficult for them to move on.We often owe young adults struggling with failure to their parents’ overprotection of them from discomfort. But there is another factor at play: a message transmitted by indulging (纵容的) parents who have falsely promised them that they can achieve anything if they are willing to work for it. However, the cruel reality of life is that you can do everything in your power — and still fail. Then what should be done to help?Psychologists Luthar and Kumar urge parents and teachers to spend time helping students find purpose, or goals they genuinely love to pursue and that make an impact on the world, which may help them gain greater life satisfaction and become more psychologically mature. Besides, instead of allowing our kids to beat themselves up when things don’t go their way, we might all question a culture where one is considered lazy without full devotion. The point is to remind them that life has a way of sucker-punching (出其不意) us when we least expect it. It’s often the people who learn to say “stuff happens” who get up the fastest.8.What does the underlined phrase “by virtue of” in paragraph 2 mean?A.in addition to B.in spite of C.by means of D.for fear of 9.The author believes that young adults find it hard to struggle with failure because__________.A.they are not taught how to deal with difficultiesB.they are short of the ability to handle failureC.they are under the protection of their parentsD.they are misled by their parents’ false message10.What did psychologists Luthar and Kumar urge parents and teachers to do?A.To teach students how to avoid faults.B.To lead students to set their truly loved goals.C.To help students to discover a path to success.D.To allow kids to blame themselves.11.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Students don’t care about failure at all.B.Students are sure to succeed if they try their best.C.Students should bear all the failures on their own.D.Students with positive attitudes can move on more easily.Hedgerows (矮树篱) are as British as fish and chips, the national dish of Great Britain. Without these walls of trees, shrubs or grasses, the country’s scenery wouldn’t be the same. Over the centuries, large numbers of hedgerows were planted to keep in farm animals,and some of today’s are as historic as many old churches, dating back as far as 800 years. Here hedge laying — the art of planting and shaping hedges — is a specialized skill that has been practiced for hundreds of years. Today, Britain has about 435,000 miles of them, a length that is greater than that of its roads.In recent years, scientists have come to view these man-made structures as important ecosystems. The best-studied benefit of hedgerows is the remarkable biodiversity — the variety of different types of animals and plants living together — they maintain. One 2019 study in Belgium found that hedgerows contained more species of nonwoody flowering plants in a given area than forests did. More plant species often mean more animals. One British scientist, who spent two years observing an old hedgerow near his home, counted anamazing 2,070 species visiting and living in it — mostly insects, but also birds rats, lizards, etc.Lauren Ponisio, a researcher at the University of Oregon, found in 2016 that growing a 300-meter hedgerow would help save around $4,000 in pest-control and pollination costs over seven years. Curiously, besides pollinating the crops themselves, the wild bees encourage non-native honeybees introduced by farmers to become more efficient pollinators, too. “Introduced honeybees are super lazy, and they’ ll be like ‘Yes, I will just hang out on this flower forever,’” Ponisio explains. But upon meeting a wild bee, they’ll fly off to the next flower or plant.There’s now a growing drive for expanding hedgerows. In the UK, Natural England has planned to increase the country’s hedgerow network by 40 percent. Recently the French government announced plans to plant an additional 4,300 miles. Even in the US, where hedgerows are much less of a cultural legacy (遗产), the government has begun to realize the many important benefits of planting hedgerows. More American farmers are receiving money provided by the US Natural Resources Conservation Service, which helps pay for planting pollinator habitats.12.What can we learn about hedgerows in Britain?A.They are usually planted near roads.B.They were used to surround churches.C.They were closely connected to fish and chips.D.They are of cultural and historical importance.13.What is a major benefit of hedgerows according to paragraph 2?A.Reducing the costs of farming.B.Improving the production of crops.C.Attracting many different kinds of wildlife.D.Protecting forests in some particular areas.14.What influence will the wild bee have on non-native honeybees?A.They’ll become more active.B.They’ll pollinate fewer flowers.C.They’ll be more likely to attack.D.They’ll be happier to live in hedgerows.15.What is the US government’s attitude to hedgerows?A.It pays little attention to them.B.It shows more interest in growing them.C.It is still doubtful about their benefits.D.It begins to appreciate their cultural value.二、七选五Does speaking on the phone make you nervous?Speaking with people on the phone is becoming rare these days. Many people prefer to use email or messaging apps when they need to communicate with someone. Sometimes, though, making a phone call is unavoidable. This simple act can actually be an unpleasant experience for some people.___16___ If this sounds familiar to you, you might be one of them who suffer from telephobia—the fear of speaking on the phone.Telephobia is a form of social anxiety, even people who feel perfectly comfortable in social situations may also experience telephobia. When speaking face to face, we give off lots of facial cues(暗示) that help each other follow the conversation. ___17___ Very often the idea of speaking on the phone makes some people so frightened that they will freeze up or lose control of the conversation. However, there are things that they can do to ease this fear.One thing that those with telephobia can do before making a call is smile. ___18___ It won’t get rid of the anxiety altogether, but it will take the edge off it. Similarly, imagining how the call will go before you make it can also help things go more smoothly. ___19___ That will make you feel less nervous and may help you predict any possible problems.___20___ Well, you don’t always have to pick up the phone. There’s nothing wrong with calling the person back later when you feel more comfortable. So the next time your phone starts ringing, remember—speaking on the phone doesn’t have to make you nervous. The important thing is to be aware of your fear and take steps to deal with it.A.This is not the case over the phone.B.Their hearts may race at the very thought.C.What are the basic rules of making phone calls?D.Just run through a positive conversation in your head.E.What should you do when you’re faced with receiving a call?F.It may sound silly, but smiling can help you feel more relaxed.G.Remember to smile politely when you are introduced to someone.三、完形填空Roy was always tired when he woke up in the morning.“I really can’t ____21____ it,” his big brother said. “You go to ____22____ earlier than I do and you get up later. So why are you tired in the morning? It doesn’t make sense!”“Perhaps it’s because I ____23____ so much,” Roy suggested.“But dreaming is good for you,” his brother told him. “All the doctors____24____that.”“Maybe,” Roy replied. “But the ____25____ is I always dream about hard work!

I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt’s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends a nd relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then.The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism(乐观), but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times.”My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers(移民局官员), took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles go away at last! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.1. How did the author get to know America?A.From radio programs B.From books and picturesC.From her mother D.From her relatives2. Upon leaving for America the author felt __________.A.excited B.confusedC.worried D.amazed3. For the first two years in New York, the author __________.A.often lost her wayB.did not think about her futureC.studied in three different schoolsD.got on well with her stepfather4. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4?A.She worked as a translator.B.She attended a lot of job interviews.C.She paid telephone bills for her family.D.She helped her family with her English.3. High school often serves to prepare students for a college education, or it might be the last stop on the educational journey for some people. No matter which path one may choose, high school life offers students the opportunities to achieve a great deal of learning, get to know themselves, or simply have fun.In America, high school is a special experience with a culture of its own. Public high schools exist in all communities(社区). Every community in the United States has a public school system, teaching children at primary and secondary levels. These schools are free and supported mainly by taxes, with additional aid from states and governments. Private high schools are a choice for parents who want to give their child a better education. They are often very expensive. Private schools are usually famous for their academic reputation (学术声望). This academic reputation is related to college preparation.In high school, students study various academic subjects such as English, literature, foreign languages, maths, science, history, geography and so on. Some large high schools have classes that teach job-related subjects like auto mechanics, cooking and others, in order to provide students with skills needed for certa in jobs. High school might also offer “honours classes” for particularly smart and sharp students.Some states give basic skills exams during the last year of the high school process to make sure that certain academic standards are met, but, again, high school curricula (课程) vary greatly among communities.High school sports, particularly basketball and football, are often organised. Inter-city and cross-town competitions are often held. These competitions are popular, especially in communities that do not have their own professional sports teams. Nearly all high school teams have nicknames: the Knights and the Tigers being some famous examples.1. Which of the following is not the supporting source of public school?A.Taxes. B.States.C.Community. D.Governments.2. Which of the following statements is true about private schools in the United States?A.There is a private school system in every community.B.Private schools can usually provide better college preparation.C.All private high schools in the United States are very expensive.D.Private schools are a better choice for parents than public schools.3. What does the author say about American high schools?A.Sports competitions are only in the city or town.B.Some states set academic standards in the first year.C.Some schools have special classes for smart students.D.All communities have their own professional sports teams.4. What might be the best title for the text?A.Life in the USAB.Education in the USAC.High Schools in the USAD.Public Schools and Private Schools in the USA4. Hundreds of friends on Facebook can’t replace a handful of close friends in real life, a study has found. In a recent study, researchers discovered that people with only a few friends were at least as happy as those with far more if many of theirs were online.Social media, the researchers said, has encouraged younger people to have larger but more impersonal networks of “friends”. But instead of trying to amass friends, they added, a better cure for lo neliness might be spending time with those you’re closest to.Scientists from the University of Leeds did their study using data from two online surveys on 1,496 people by a non-profit research organization. People taking part in the study showed their ages, the make-up of their social networks, how often they had different types of social interactions, and their own feelings of well-being. They included details of how often and how they interacted (交流) with families or neighbors, and whether they included people who provided services to them in their networks.The number of close friends someone had appeared to be the only thing which influenced how satisfied they were with their social life.“Loneliness has less to do with the number of friends you have, a nd more to do with how you feel about your friends,” said Dr Wändi Bruine de Bruin. Actually, it's often the younger adults who admit to having a bad opinion of their friends.If you feel lonely, it may be more helpful to make a positive connection with a friend than to try and seek out new people to meet.1. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “amass” in Paragraph 2?A.Play the role of. B.Think highly of.C.Take advantage of. D.Increase the number of.2. What can be learned from the scientists’ study?A.Scientists did one online survey on 1,496 people.B.People surveyed mentioned new forms of social networks.C.People surveyed showed their ways to interact with families.D.The number of friends was the only cause of people’s happin ess.3. What makes people happy in social life?A.Living alone.B.Having close friends.C.Having good appearance.D.Making as many friends as possible.4. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?A.To advise us to make friends online.B.To show us the importance of friends.C.To present us with the findings of a study.D.To tell us the problems causes by loneliness.5. Travelling is a very enjoyable experience as it provides an opportunity to see new things. 1 The following article discusses the advantages of traveling. Traveling gives you the opportunity to disconnect from your regular life. People all have crazy schedules, work and a family to take care of, and traveling alone or with some friends can give you distance and perhaps even make you realize how important these people are to you. 2Another great benefit is the relaxation you get. 3 When you come back you feel energetic and you are happy to be back to your daily routine. 4 They will create a bond that nothing can erase no matter what happens to the friendship/relationship. You can create photo albums and when you feel nostalgic (对往事怀恋的) you can experience the trips again by looking at your pictures.It’s never been this cheap to travel. With increasing oil prices the cheap travel era might be coming to an end. 5With the Internet and all the new technology, you can plan your trip exactly the way you want it. You can choose your budget, the duration of the trip and what you want to do.6. A video about a homeless man went viral.

It’s a question that oftendoesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes tohear the answer “Fine.”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. Thereason is that “How are you?” isn’t really aquestion and “Fine.”isn’t really an answer. They are simply other way of saying “Hello!”or “Hi!”.Sometimes, people also don’t say exactlywhat they me an. For example, when someone asks, “Do you agree?”, theother person might be thinking, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong…”But it isn’t very polite to disagree strongly, so the other person might say “I’mnot sure…”. It’s a nice way to say that you don’t agree with someone.People also don’t say exactly what they arethinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talksover the phone finish when one person says “I’ve to go now.” Often,the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse,” Someone is at the door.”“Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or itmight not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talkany more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and itdoesn’t hurt the other person.When they are greeting each other, talkingabout an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what theyare thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other,and it’s also a part of the game of language.(1)When a person wants to disagree with someone, it is polite to say “___________”.A . You’re wrong. I disagree.B . I’m not sure.C . I’m sure I disagree.D . No, I disagree.(2)When a person says “I’ve to go now. Someone is at the door.”, heor she may be .A . giving an excuseB . hurting someone’s feelingC . talking to a person at the doorD . going to another place(3)One of the rules of the game of language is probably “____________”.A . Always say what you mean.B . Don’t disagree with people.C . Say exactly what you’re thinking.D . Being polite is the best policy.3. 阅读理解My boss’s daughter was studying in the Philippines. He asked me if my husband and I could take care of her. He thought his daughter would be able to improve her English communication skills in this way.After days of thinking, we agreed. He then brought her here and left after 3 days. I thought that my boss’s daughter was well-mannered, but that was wrong.After a month of staying in the Philippines, she started to show her true colors. When my husband asked her what she wanted for breakfast, she answered him in a rude way.From then on, we experienced fights at home. There was a time when we didn’t talk to her for a week as a punishment of not being good to us. What I hated most was that she didn’t care about other people’s feelings. She ate ahead of us when we were still working and didn’t leave anything for us. So we had to separate her food from ours to avoid such a problem.The worst thing about her was that she shouted at us. I was wondering if she did this to her parents. We told this to her parents, but unfortunately Ididn’t think that solved the problem. This situation lasted for almost 8 months. Our patience was tested during that time.We tried to teach her everything we could to make her a better person, but I guess 8 months may not be enough. We even tried to understand her and adjust for her, but it didn’t work. I just hope that she learned something from us and from other Filipinos.(1)Why did the boss want his daughter to stay with the writer?A . Because he was too busy to take care of his daughter.B . Because he wanted his daughter to take a holiday there.C . Because he wanted the writer to teach his daughter good manners.D . Because he wanted his daughter to improve her English in this way.(2)What do the examples in Paragraph 3 tell us?A . The daughter wasn’t t behaving well.B . The writer and her husband were careless.C . The writer and her husband hated children.D . The daughter tried her best to make others happy.(3)What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A . Being patient with her.B . Her parents punishing her.C . Telling her parents about her behavior.D . Asking her parents about her.(4)What is this passage mainly about?A . The writer’s experience of dealing with a teenage girl staying in her house.B . The writer’s experience of teaching a girl’s English.C . The writer’s experience of improving a girl’s communication skills.D . The writer’s experience of trying to please her boss.4. 阅读理解When to go:The Magic Kingdom, which was opened in 1971, was the first theme park at WaltDisney World.

I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable.I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately.

In 1979,flooding(洪水) took away a large part of forest along the Brahmaputra River. Wildlife were left without enough shade(荫), and Payeng watched helpless animals begin to die off from the heat.Deeply saddened, then the 16-year-old decided he would plant a young tree in the barren(贫瘠的) land every day for the foreseeable future and now, 39 years later, his woodland covers 1, 360 acres and it is home to Bengal tigers, rhinos, vultures and 115 elephants.Amazingly, the work didn’t come to light until the autumn of 2007, when he was accidentally discovered seeding(播种) his forest by wildlife lover Jitu Kalita.Kalita had borrowed a boat to take pictures of birds around the Brahmaputra River, which runs around Majuli Island, and while travelling through the waters he saw something unusual. Kalita recalls: “I saw something strange ... it looked like a forest far in the di stance. I began walking towards it. When I reached it, I couldn’t believe my eyes. I had found a forest in the middle of a barren wasteland.” He was amazed by Payeng’s story and spent time learning about his lifetime’s work.Payeng, who makes money with hi s wife selling cows’ milk to local villages, still works hard taking care of his forest and says he will continue to plant young trees and seeds until the last moment of his life. He said at first that planting was very time-consuming(耗时的) but now it’s muc h easier because the trees seed themselves.Payeng’s work has been recognised far and wide and in 2015 he received one of India’s highest civilian awards, the Padma Shri.Payeng says his dream is to fill up Majuli Island with forest again. Standing next to the first tree that he planted, he said: “People from around the world come here now because this forest amazes them.”1.

What is the text mainly about?A.A man who planted a forest.B.A way to protect the natural world.C.How a special woodland was discovered.D.How a wasteland became a tourist attraction.4. Baseball was always where my heart lay. However, my father did not care for baseball. Two recreational activities he enjoyed were golfing and fishing, neither of which I considered a real sport. He didn’t talk much and he wasn’t good at expressing himself. Frankly, I wasn’t entirely certain he cared about me. In a way, my father was like a familiar stranger I saw every day.One day, watching the play on television made me want a glove of my own. To my surprise, my father said he wanted one, too. He was on the portly side, but then again, one of the famous pitchers(投球手) on the Mets was even fatter. So I thought, why not?We bought two gloves, and that evening, he suggested we go out to the courtyard and toss(掷) the ball around. I’d already practiced catching and throwing at school, but I could tell this was the first time for my father, because every time he caught the ball, it landed directly in his palm. If you’ve ever caught a ball with a baseball glove, you know how much this hurts.But my father caught ball after ball this way. Slap! Slap! He winced(呲牙咧嘴). After about five minutes, I told him I’d had enough. It wasn’t out of mercy, but for my own self-interest. Neighborhood kids were watching and would no doubt tease me later for having an old man who didn’t know how to properly catch a baseball do that. When my father took the glov e off, his palm was red and swollen.Dad, who passed away 11 years ago, never told me he loved me. But that sound of the baseball landing in the soft flesh of his hand, over and over again—it spoke its own tender language, though at the time, all I felt was shame.1. Why did the father want a glove?A.He was interested in baseball.B.He was impressed by the play on television.C.He wanted to show his improvement in baseball.D.He wanted to make the author happy.2.

What can we learn from the passage?A.The father didn’t feel hurt when catching the ball.B.The father didn’t understand his child at allC.The author didn’t realise his father’s love at first.D.The author criticised his father when playing.4. What could be the best title for the passage?A.A Crying Shame for BaseballB.The Sound of LoveC.A Loving Father and His SonD.Love That Comes Late5. Reasons Why Running Is the Easiest ExerciseSome people think that running is hard. I once thought that too. 1 Here's why it is such an easy activity to start and stick to.☆It can be as easy or hard as you want.Many people start running by going out and running as fast as they can for as long as they can. That is not so fun. 2 But easing into it is a different story. Start slowly and cover a short distance. Then gradually work your way up. In this way, running can be pain-free and actually wonderful.☆ 3Classes at the gym are great but they always end up never working for me. With a busy life, I find it hard to attend a class. On the other hand, with running, you just need to find the time whenever you can, here and there, and change it around.☆The gear (装备) is simple.4 However, that's really just about all you need. There is no gear. Expensive sport-specific clothes are available (可用的) but not required. If you fall in love with running, you may think you need some seasonal running clothes. Even so, that will be cheaper than bike gear.☆You can do it anywhere.You can run in the city. You can run in the county. You can run on a track, in a park, on the steer even on the beach. You can run at home. You can run when you travel. And in fact, running around new cites when traveling is great fun. 56.
