Actually, that's what Olympic divers usually do between dives as they know very well about the importance owarm-upsand cool-downs.So,whafs the actual reason?As it turns out, showers and hot tubs are used pretty interchangeably by the swimming pool. However, there is a need for both.First, let's start with why divers need to take a shower between dives. It has to do with body temperature and keeping their muscles relaxed.As you can imagine, practicing dives in the pool, then having to keep your body warm in a shower, and then jumping off a 10-meter platform and into cold water couldn't be comfortable for anyone. Going back and forth betweenthese warm and cool temperatures can cause a diver's muscles to tense or cramp up(痉挛),which can lead to injuries to the muscles.Showers allow an Olympic diver to recover and prevent that.In that way, showers and hot tubs serve the same purpose.A hot tub is generally used if you have a bit more time between dives and have already stretched. The shower walls on the pool deck can typically provide enough space for more divers at the same time, and they're especially helpful for athletes who needto stretch or who only have a few minutes be tween dives.Just like Olympic swimmers depend on thick clothes to keep their muscles warm, Olympic divers rely on these methods to stay loose.If you ask me, it's not a bad way to pass the time!27. What does the underlined word "proceed" in Paragraph 1 mean?A.Fail. B.Continue.C.Stop. D.Afford.28. Why do the athletes need showers after diving?A.To fully clean their body.B.To rest and wait for the results.C.To avoid possible muscle injuries.D.To stop themselves from catching a cold.29. What does the last paragraph suggest?A.The shower walls are designed for divers in the final round.B.Olympic swimmers need to stay warm using hot tubs.C.Athletes usually do some activities to pass the time.D.Hot tubs are as important as showers fordivers.30. l.What is the author's purpose in writing thistext?A.To tell us the difference between diving and swimming.B.To explain some little-known knowledge about divers.C.To compare cold showers with the hot bath.D.To provide some diving advice for us.DOur teenagers are lonely. A new study byHarvard's Making Caring Common (MCC) shows just how that feeling has been common and become serious during the past year when we had to keep the social distance.One year's online learning and life in the bedrooms rather than the classrooms or dorm rooms can make teenagers feel lonelier than before.Teenagers have been more likely to be influenced by loneliness than older adults.Experiencing loneliness is certainly sad, but it is also perilous.Researchers found that63% of the young were suffering from bad sleep, anxiety, andpoor health during thelockdownand that nearly a quarter had started or increased some bad habits,including smoking, drinking,and staying up late to deal with their feelings.About half of the young people in the study, who said they had felt lonely,explained that over the past weeks not one person had taken more than ju
