Passage 3

After tough workout or a day full of physical activity, it’s common to find your muscles aching, but where do these pains come from? According to a German professor, the soreness comes from straining your muscles in an uncommon way, for example, jumping on a bicycle for a ride, because you haven’t ridden in a long time. Soreness occurs since your leg muscles aren't used to that movement. When muscles perform an activity they aren’t regularly expose to, the tiny fibers that are inside them are being torn apart. As muscle soreness develops, the body has to work to repair the muscle tears, but this doesn’t happen immediately. First, the body must realize the muscles are damaged. When the body realizes the muscles are hurt, the response is to increase blood flow to the area and increase body heat, damaged cells are then cleaned up and the body sends cells specially designed to break down the large muscle fiber fragments. Healing can take place after this. It takes about a day until these cells make it to your aching muscles. That’s why there is most often a delay associated with muscle soreness. Repair of damaged cells takes about two days, and afterwards the soreness disappears. Unfortunately, there is little that can be down to relieve muscle soreness. Pain relieving creams don’t work, but a hot shower, or warm bath can provide some relief.

翻譯：

中國的家庭觀念與其文化傳統(tǒng)有關(guān)。和睦的大家庭曾非常令人羨慕。過去四代同堂并不少見。由于這個傳統(tǒng),許多年輕人婚后繼續(xù)與父母同住。今天,這個傳統(tǒng)正在改變,隨著住房條件的改善,越來越多年輕夫婦選擇與父母分開住。但他們之間的聯(lián)系仍然很密切。許多老年人仍然幫著照看孫輩。年輕夫婦也抽時間探望父母,特別是在春節(jié)和中秋節(jié)等重要節(jié)日。

The Chinese family ideas are related with her cultural traditions. harmonious extended families(big families) used to be very admirable, and it was not uncommon for four generations to liveunder the same roof. With this convention many young couples would continue to live with theparents. However, this practice is changing. With the improvement of the housing condition, more couples choose to live away from the parents but they still have close relations。Many elderly people help take care of their grandchildren and their children spare time to visit them, esp on important occasions like the Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival.
