For the __________26 month, mysterious falls of large chunks of ice (冰雹) ________27 rained down on Spain and Italy. Juana Sanchez, a 70-year-old woman in Almeria, southern Spain, was knocked ________ 28 when she was struck on the shoulder by a falling ice chunk ________29 she walked in a street ________30 her home. On January 12, just about 200 miles away in Seville, a man narrowly ________ 31 serious injury when a 9-pound ball of ice ________ 32 into his car. ________33 the evening of January 27 priests at the Salesian monastery in L'Aquila, Italy were startled by a loud crash. _______ 34 the noise, they discovered a large chunk of ice on their yard, _______ 35 intact. Upon examination, the block of ice _______ 36 in at 2 kilograms and no source _______37 . On the same day, about 100 miles northeast in Ancona, Italy, the local officials were called to investigate the report of a man _______38 was struck _______ 39 the head by a 1 kilogram chunk of ice that apparently fell from the sky.
Spain and Italy aren't the only European _______40 getting attacked by huge ice blocks in January. On January 2 in Surrey, England (southwest of London), an East Indian man was walking through Newton Athletic Park when he _______ 41 a strange whistling sound overhead. Seconds _______ 42, a large hunk of ice fell out of the clear blue sky and pounded into the soft ground, shattering over a 50-foot-wide area. The ice dug a hole of a foot deep and a foot in diameter. Even the shattered remains of the mystery ice were as large as tennis balls and were described as opaque _______43 no unusual color or smell.
Although eyewitnesses to the phenomenon report that they did not see anything in the sky that could account _______ 44 the ice, scientists had to come up with a rationalization. Professor Jesus Martinez Frias, the geologist investigating the ice falls in Spain, told BBC News that the ice pieces had probably been _______ 45 through sudden temperature drops in the stratosphere. This was the most likely explanation, he said, for the "very unusual" phenomenon.

Fit to be President
Are you fit to be President of the United States? Physical fitness is not a requirement, but it could be helpful. After all, the President's job is a stressful one. Many Presidents have found relief from the tension of their work through exercise. Their choices of. activities' have been as different as the personalities of the men who have held the office
Some Presidents kept fit by walking. George Washington and James Madison enjoyed nature walks.
Harry S. Truman was famous for his early morning walks. Reporters and photographers sometimes tagged along, but keeping up with him was not easy. Truman kept a brisk and exact pace. "I walk two miles most every morning at a hundred and twenty-eight steps a minute," he noted.
John Quincy Adams also enjoyed early morning walks." I walk by the light of moon or stars, or none, about four miles, usually returning home in time to see the sun rise from the eastern chamber of the House," he wrote. In tile summer, he followed his walk with a swim in the Potomac River.
Herbert Hoover said that walks were a "lonesome business". He was more interested in a team sport, He also wanted an activity that would give him a good workout, in a short amount of time. Hoover's White House physician created the perfect solution—a game that became known as Hoover-ball.
The game, similar to volleyball, was played with a six-pound medicine ball. The server threw the hall over the net. A player on the other team had to catch the ball before it touched the ground and throw it back. Each morning four to eighteen players turned out for games on the south lawn of the White House. Many of them were members of Hoover's cabinet.
Theodore Roosevelt was known to take the members of cabinet on long, exhausting hikes. He also enjoyed plenty of other activities. He played tennis, went horseback riding, and sparred with boxing partners in a ring set up at the White House. For a while, Roosevelt trained three times a week with two Japanese wrestlers. In a letter to his son, he described his progress. "Since you left they have taught me three new throws that are perfect corkers," he wrote.
Another active President was Gerald Ford, who had been a star football player in college. He played tennis, skied, and swam laps in the White House pool. He also worked out with weights, an activity that Ronald Reagan used to keep in shape.
Two of our Presidents swam as a way to manage health problems. Franklin D. Roosevelt, who had lost the use of his legs from polio, was able to build upper-body strength from daily swims in the White House pool. That strength helped him move easily from wheelchair to chair.
John F. Kennedy, who suffered from chronic back pain, also benefited from swimming in the White House pool. Because warm water soothed his back, Kennedy ordered that the pool be heated.
Man U. S. Presidents have been golfers. William Howard Taft was the first serious golfer in the White House. Dwight Eisenhower practiced the game often. Warren Harding even trained his dog to chase and return golf balls when he practiced on the south lawn of the White House. Woodrow Wilson enjoyed golf so much that he had some of his golf bans painted red for playing on snowy days.
Several Presidents have been joggers. Jimmy Carter regularly ran about four miles a day. George H. W. Bush found that his daily run was a good time to think. "It gives me time to reflect, to clear the head," he told a reporter. His son, current President George W. Bush, also jogs.
Politicians have found that a good way to get a bit of the President's time is to join him during one of his runs. Bill Clinton's White House scheduler kept a list of people who wanted to jog with the President. Many found that Clinton was in better shape than they had expected
