PHYSICAL EXERCISE



With a burst of enthusiasm, millions of adults are determined to get in shape and gymnastics is rapidly becoming the most popular form of exercise.

People are coming to realize that if you are not well, none of the rest matters. The exercise boom is more than a change in life styles. It reflects a rising global concern with health in general. Having removed physical exercise from countless daily activities, many people feel a greater need to give release to the accumulated stresses and pressures of everyday life. Automation and high technology have had much to do with it.

Sports and games are also of great value, especially to people who work with their brains most of the day. They should not be treated only as amusements. They make our bodies strong, prevent us from getting too fat and keep us healthy. Besides that, sports and games are very useful for character-training. They teach people principles such as discipline, determination and self-control.

WHY LIVE? (TEXTO 1)
Sir Winston Churchill (1874 – 1965), the great British prime minister, was having a conversation with Lady Nancy Astor (1879 – 1964), the first woman to become a member of Parliament. They were talking about women’s rights, a cause which Lady Astor strongly defended. Churchill opposed her on this and several other causes.
After Churchill once more refused to accept  Lady Astor’s arguments, she became angry and said, “Winston, If you were my Husband, I would put poison in your coffee.”
If you were my wife,” replied Churchill smoothly, “I would drink it.”

REGRETS (TEXTO 2)
Albert Einstein (1879 – 1955), the German-born physicist of Jewish descent, had to go into exile when Hitler came to power in Germany, in 1933. After that, a hundred Nazi professors published a book condemning Einstein’s theory of relativity. The great scientist was not worried. “If I were wrong,” he said, “one professor would be enough.”
But Einstein also had some regrets about his work. In 1945, when he heard of the atomic destruction of Hiroshima, he said, “If I had known, I would have become a plumber.”
