Wakeout
Because of COVID-19, many people’s fitness has suffered due to long periods of siting or lying.

Seven-7 Minute Workout
Seven-7 Minute Workout aims to give you the most benefit possible in just 7 minutes through a series of quick exercises that target specific areas of your body. There’s no equipment need.

30 Day Fitness
30 Day Fitness provides hundreds of exercises with video instructions for each of the 30 days, plus a personal workout history, so you can see how far you’ve come. You get a week for free, but it’ll cost you $5 a week for access after that.

In the morning, Ms Antón waves goodbye to Mila as she is picked up to go today care. “It has made her so independent, so friendly with others,” Ms Antón says. She closes the door and turns to homeschooling her two children. For Mila is not a child, but the family dog.
Schools and nurseries have been shut in Mexico for a year, because of the pandemic. But doggy daycare is developing quickly. “Many customers now have a home office or are worried about their dogs becoming too attached to them,” explains Mondragon, the co-owner of a dog day-care centre.
The number of dogs in Mexico increased by 20% in the decade to 2020. Most are strays (流浪狗), but many have found loving homes. They cover 85% of all pets in Mexico. There are special areas for dogs in parks. Many restaurants welcome dogs and provide drinking water. Pet salons provide not only baths but also other items. None of this is cheap. A “relaxing bath” at PetCare, a salon, can cost over an average worker’s daily wages (薪水).
Mexicans come to love dogs while the population is falling. In the mid-1980s, a Mexican woman could expect to have four children; now, only two. In the long run, as people have grown richer and the returns to education have risen, families become smaller. In the past year, however, it is economic uncertainty that has prompted many to delay having babies.
For some, a dog is a lovable choice. The most devoted owners buy clothes and throw birthday parties for their pooches, with hats and birthday cakes. For mothers such as Ms Antón, doggy day care offers some time from covid-induced work. But she will not stop worrying until her children too, are let off the leash and back into the classroom.

B. There aren’t special areas for dogs in parks.
C. Most dogs haven’t found their caring homes.
D. The number of dogs in Mexico increases slowly.
35. Which one is NOT the reason why the population of Mexico is falling
A. The returns to education have risen.
B. People come to love dogs very much.
C. People there are becoming richer and richer.
D. People are not sure about the economy development.
