— What’s the score？ 比分是多少？
— Spain scored a minute ago.西班牙（队）一分钟前得分了。
（1）score作为名词，意为“（游戏、比赛、考试等的）比分；进球数”。
如：What was the final score？ 最后的比分是多少？
（2）score作为动词时，意为“（体育比赛中）得分；取分”。
如：England scored three goals.英格兰队进了三球。
What’s the matter with you，Tony？ 托尼，你怎么了？
“What’s the matter”意为“怎么了？”，常用来询问病情或某人遇到什么麻烦、问题。与“What’s wrong with sb.？”表达的意思是一样的。
And I hurt my knee.而且我的膝盖受伤了。
（1）hurt作动词，意为“（使）疼痛；（使）受伤”。其过去式和过去分词都是hurt。
如：Forty-one people are said to have been seriously hurt.据说41人身负重伤。
（2）hurt也可以用作名词，意为“心灵受伤；委屈”。

Never mind.There’s still plenty of time for them to score.不要介意。仍然有大量的时间给他们进球。
（1）mind意为“介意；当心；留心”。回答带有mind的问句时，若介意就用yes，意思是“不让对方做某事”；不介意就用no，意思是“允许对方做某事”。当表示“介意做……”时，mind后面常加doing。
如：Would you mind speaking more slowly？ 你介意说慢点儿吗？
（2）plenty of 意为“大量；众多”，意思与lots of，a lot of相近，后面均可接可数名词和不可数名词。
如：There are plenty of / lots of / a lot of eggs in the market.市场上有很多鸡蛋。
Should we drink plenty of / lots of / a lot of water before running？ 跑步前我们该喝大量的水吗？

Have you heard of aqua exercises？ They are exercises done in water.They are also called water exercises.It is believed that aqua exercises can help people burn more fat than exercises on dry land.There are two main types of aqua exercises.
First，aqua jogging.We must wear a special belt which can protect us and help us floating as we run in the water.Although we are in water，we should run very hard as if we were jogging on dry land.Aqua jogging can protect our joints （关节） and at the same time make our muscles （肌肉） work hard.The famous actress，Jennifer Aniston，is reported to aqua jog for fifteen minutes every day.Now there are many aqua jogging clubs and classes all over the UK.
Second，aqua Tai Chi.Tai Chi on land is an ancient Chinese exercise designed to improve balance，reduce stress and help people to relax.Aqua Tai Chi can do this better.Peter Chou，who has established a Tai Chi school，says，“Tai Chi is about fluidity （流动性） and relaxation.For thousands of years，experts have been asking people to imagine being in water when they are practicing Tai Chi，so why not actually put them in water？ When people’s hands and feet move slowly through water，they can experience what fluidity feels like both mentally and physically，and understand this exercise better.The water can also make them slower and more relaxed.”
People will need an understanding of Tai Chi and should be able to perform some of the simple movements on land before trying aqua Tai Chi.It is not suitable for beginners because they need to see how the teachers’ hands and feet are moving，which is not easily done underwater.
（ B ）1.From the first paragraph，we can know that aqua exercises .
A.can help people grow fatter
B.can help people lose weight faster
C.are the same as those on dry land
