But some of them have some wrong ideas about it.“A plate of chicken is a good meal before games because it has much energy.”In fact, the best meal before ga

23、mes should have carbohydrates(碳水化合物). Food like potatoes, bread, bananas are rich (富有的) in it, but chicken and meat are not. “The best time to exercise is early in the morning.”No. Morning is a good time to exercise, but it may not be suitable for you.

24、or you, and you enjoy the feeling of getting healthier, you can choose any time to exercise. So there is no fixed time for you to exercise.“If you drink water when you exercise, youll feel tired.”The fact is that you must have some water during breaks (休息时间) when you exercise.

Wrong ideas about sports and exercise.B “How are you?” is a nice question. Its a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you?” is also

29、 a very unusual question. Its a question that often doesnt have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the persons friend isnt fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isnt really a question and “Fine” isnt really an answer. They are simply other ways o

30、f saying “Hello” or “Hi”. Sometimes, people also dont say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree, I think youre wrong” But it isnt very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “Im not sure.” It

31、s a nicer way to say that you dont agree with someone. People also dont say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people.

32、 at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or it might not.
