Do you like go running? Some people think running is boring. But there are ways to make it more exciting – for example, “plogging”.

Plogging is a new exercise trend(趨勢(shì))from Sweden. The name comes from the words “pick up ” and “jogging”. It means picking up trash(垃圾)while running.

Ploggers go outside with a pair of gloves and a trash bag. They stop to pick up trash as they run. Nobody likes to see trash while they’re doing exercise. This new trend brings environmental protection (環(huán)境保護(hù)) and healthy living together.

Plogging may even be better for you than just running, since bending down (彎腰) to pick up trash is another kind of exercise itself. So try to plogging with your friends on your way to school. You can stay healthy and keep the environment clean at the same time.

The British government has started a £10 million Mandarin Excellence(普通話優(yōu)秀) Program. The program will see over 5,000 British students towards fluency(流利) in Mandarin Chinese by 2020.

The program is led by local schools and supported by University College London. So far, 14 schools have taken part in the program. Hundreds of secondary school students in England have taken lessons in Mandarin Chinese. Over the next three years, they will spend eight hours studying Mandarin Chinese every week.

Nick Gibb is an officer of the British government. He said a high level of fluency in Mandarin Chinese would become more and more important. “Language skills are important for jobs and life. Mandarin Chinese is spoken by the largest number of people in the world. It is also one of the languages that is the most important to our country’s future. If the United Kingdom wants to remain competitive(競(jìng)爭(zhēng)的) in the world,we do need far more of our young people leaving school with a good command(精通) of Mandarin Chinese,” Gibb added. “We hope that our young people could be given the chance to study the language. We want them to be fluent in both spoken and written Mandarin. The Mandarin Excellence Program will help us do this. It will not only open the students’ eyes, but also give them a great advantage when they enter the world of work.”
