Along with jogging and swimming, cycling is one of the best all-round forms of exercise. It can
help to increase your strength and energy, giving you more efficient muscles and stronger heart. But
increasing your strength is not the only advantage of cycling. Because you’re not carrying the weight of
your body on your feet, it’s a good form of exercise for people with painful feet or backs. However, with
all forms of exercise it’s important to start slowly and build up gently. Doing too much too quickly can
damage muscles that aren’t used to working. If you have any doubts about taking up cycling for health
reasons, talk to your doctor and ask his/ her advice.
Ideally you should be cycling at least two or three times a week. For the exercise to be doing you
good, you should get a little out of breath. Don’t worry that if you begin to lose your breath, it could be
dangerous and there must be something wrong with your heart. This is simply not true; shortness of breath
shows that the exercise is having the right effect. However, if you find you are in pain then you should stop
and take a rest.

Nhi is holidaying in Australia. This is part of a letter which she wrote to her parents.
I’m really enjoying my holiday in Australia. Last Sunday I visited a marine park called Sea World,
which is at Surfers Paradise near Brisbane. It’s Australia’s largest marine park and I had a wonderful day
there.
The first thing I saw was the Oceanarium, which is a place where you can watch all sorts of sea
fish and animals underwater. There were huge turtle, sharks and beautiful tropical sea fish. The most
exciting thing was watching a man feeding the sharks. Then I watched the performing animals. The show
was in a big outdoor swimming pool. There were killer whales, and sea lions, and they did all sorts of
fantastic things in the water.
One of the girls in the show rode around the pool on the back of a killer whale, and another girl
rode under water on the back of a big turtle. After the show, I had lunch. There were several big restaurants
in the park and I had lunch in a restaurant that was shaped like a ship. Then I watched a wonderful water-
ski show which was held on the lake.
There were lots of other things to do at the park. There was lake cruising, a train ride, a big water
slide, swimming pools, and an incredible roller-coaster called the Corkscrew! – because it goes through
three loops upside down. But I wish I had gone on the roller-coaster ride before lunch rather than after it.
I’m sending you some postcards to show you how great it was.

People who travel frequently on business or for pleasure often suffer some form of health problem,
yet over half of these problems can easily be prevented. The most common ailment, a headache, can be
avoided by taking along an ample supply of aspirin or other pain reliever. Another common affliction is
motion sickness caused by the constant movement of a vehicle. Ginger capsules, sold in most health-food
stores, have been found effective as a remedy. Other familiar problems include sunburn, which can be
prevented by using an effective sunscreen, and insect bites, which can be controlled with use of a repellent
spray or ointment. For everyday cuts and scratches, a first-aid kit containing bandages and antiseptic cream
is recommended.
