Cold weather during winter months may stop many people from _______home and running in the open air. But a new study shows _______ the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather _______ improve one's performance (性能). Many people say running in _______ winter is difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and strong winds. Yet many runners might find _______ easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body.
When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is _______ than in warmer conditions. Besides, the body needs less water _______ a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from John Brewer, a sports scientist at St. Mary's University in London. Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat is by sweating, and that the body loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. But sweating puts much strain (张力) on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because it is _______ harder to lose heat when the external environment is warm as well.
In addition, running in higher temperatures results in faster heart rates. Scientists find that heart rates are about 6 percent higher in the hotter conditions. _______, running in cooler temperatures has some advantages. One is that the body does not have to work so hard to pump (输送) blood to the skins surface in cooler temperatures, which means running requires less energy. Several websites note that the most important thing for people ________ run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. And especially, keeping as dry as possible is very important when exercising in low temperatures.

The Internet is full of false information. It is important for us all to avoid being fooled by such information. Here are three examples of Internet hoaxes (恶作剧).
On his website, a man by the name of Tony has asked for money to save the life of a pretty little rabbit named Toby that he saved from under his house. A cat must have attacked the rabbit, the man said, so he took it in. He gave Toby loving care and nursed him back to health. There is a very cruel point, however. If the man doesn't receive enough money, he will eat poor little Toby. (Don't worry, thought. Remember, it's just a hoax!)
While the streets of New Orleans, the USA, were still flooded after a terrible hurricane (飓风), a frightening e-mail was sent around the Internet. It included a photograph of a large crocodile (鳄鱼)over five meters long. According to the message, it had been swimming around the flooded city eating people. It was later discovered that the photographs of the crocodile were of one that was caught in the Congo (刚果) years before.
The following e-mail hoax takes in many people. It says that a large British company will pay you to send their e-mail to as many people as possible. For every person that you send the e-mail to, it promises you will receive $5.00; for every person that you send it to that sends it to someone else, you'll get $3.00; and for every third person that receives it, you will be paid $1.00.
