Thanks to a successful crowd-funding campaign,Dion Leonard,an extreme marathon runner is adopting a stray pup（流浪狗）he met while running a 155-mile race in the Gobi desert in China.The funds（基金）that were raised will help cover medical expenses so that the dog can be transported from China to Leonard's home of Edinburgh, Scotland.

Leonard shared his sleeping space,water and food with his small companion during the race.He even lent her a hand when needed."I carried her across rivers that she could not cross on her own,"he wrote on his Crowdfunder page.

When you think of what to eat when you're trying to build muscles,fruits may not be the first that comes to mind.But fruits are just as important as any other food.Their potassium（钾）helps make and build muscles,the carbs（碳水化合物）spare your body from burning your muscles for fuel and the antioxidants（抗氧化物）protect the muscles from damage.

Antioxidants protect muscles.Large amounts of exercise causes chemical reactions that may damage cells,and this may lead you to consider adding antioxidants to your daily routine.But when it comes to antioxidants and health, it's always better to get them from food.Fruits are rich in a number of antioxidants,including vitamin C.Load up on antioxidants to protect your muscles by filling your diet with mangoes,grapefruit,apples and berries.

There are a number of ways you can-add fruit to your muscle-building diet to get all the nutritional benefits.

Zeratsky acknowledges that exercise can lead to hunger.But,she says,"if your body says 'I'm hungry' while you _69_(have) more activity,well,then just choose to eat in a smart way_70_won't damage your weight-loss efforts."

Recently our class are having a discussion with holiday plans.We have different opinion.

Some students think staying at home is tooth convenient or comfortable.It allows them to have a good rest and spending more time with their families.Beside,it can save money for other purposes.
