Tired of traditional running? Well, maybe it’s time to try using your hands instead. That’s what Shaun McCarty and other Australians are doing — running on all fours. 1.

McCarthy, who comes from Melbourne, Australia, said he’s the one behind the term “crunning.” “It’s not crawling, it’s not running.” he said. “Crunning is a better workout than running. It puts more of an emphasis（着重）on the body than traditional running does. 2.”

McCarthy thinks that he gets much more exhausted after crunning, so he believes it must burn more calories than running.

3. Some believe crunning could result in bad shoulder injuries or broken noses.

But McCarthy is not worried. Many Melbourne residents have been seen running around on all fours. 4.In the Chinese city of Zhengzhou, crawling, a much slower version of crunning, has been a favourite activity for many years. According to some people there, the exercise is believed to date back two thousand years to the Han Dynasty.

5. Then McCarthy advises you to buy some good shoes, hand gloves and most important of all, a face mask!

A. Ready to give crunning a try?

B. As it turns out, they are not the only ones.

C. Crunning seems more difficult than traditional running.

D. It really exercises your legs and shoulders at the same time.

E. It’s part of the Internet’s latest fitness activities: “Crunning.”

F. However, many are not sure if it is the right exercise for humans.

G. He warns, however, that he can’t say whether crunning is potentially harmful.

Studies over the past decade at the University of Utah show that hands-free cellphones are just as harmful to drivers as hand-held ones because it is the conversation, not the phone, that is distracting(分散) their attention. “Even though your eyes are looking right at something, when you are on the cellphone, you are not as likely to see it,” says Professor David Strayer. “Ninety-nine percent of the time, it's not that critical(危急的), but that l% could be the time a child runs into the street,” he adds.

Dr. Strayer’s studies have also found that talking on a cellphone is far more distracting than talking with a passenger. Listening to the radio, to music or to a book on tape also isn’t as distracting, because it doesn’t require the same level of interaction as a conversation. But even drivers may miss some details of a book on tape if their attention is focused on driving tasks. Some people can train themselves to pay extra attention to things that are important—like police officers learn to search faces in crowds.

And the Utah researchers have found a rare group of “super-taskers”—about 2.5% of the population—who seem able to attend to more than one thing with ease.

Many more people think they can effectively do several things at the same time, but they are really turning their attention rapidly between two things and not getting the full effect of either. Clearly, it is easier to put some tasks together than others.” Not all distractions are the same,’’ says Dr. Strayer. Things like cleaning and working out can be done automatically while the mind is focused elsewhere. But doing homework and texting at the same time isn’t possible. Even talking and watching TV is difficult. “Just try talking with your wife while watching football. It’s impossible,” jokes Dr. Strayer.
