hiking, walking in nature as a recreational activity. Especially among those with sedentary occupations, hiking is a natural exercise that promotes physical fitness, is economical and convenient, and requires no special equipment. Because hikers can walk as far as they want, there is no physical strain unless they walk among hills or mountains.

Many persons walk alone, mainly on weekends or holidays, but youth clubs and other groups arrange rambles, or hikes. The normal length of the walk undertaken is 7 to 12 miles (11 to 19 km) for a half day or 12 to 20 miles (19 to 32 km) for a full day. Those organized rambles, combining exercise with enjoyment of the countryside, are in country districts surrounding large towns and follow a planned route. Most densely populated European towns have hiking trails outside them.
For regular and intensive walkers there are available services offered by such associations as the Ramblers’ Association in Great Britain and the Wilderness Society in the United States. Those organizations encourage hiking and preserve footpaths, bridle paths, and rights of way in parkland and recognized open spaces in areas of natural beauty against the encroachment of builders, local authorities, and national undertakings. They also help hikers to obtain hostel accommodation and, by exchange of information and services, enable persons of one country to pursue these activities in others. The Appalachian Trail Conference (U.S.), with the aid of its member organizations in 14 states, maintains campsites and a trail more than 2,000 miles (3,200 km) long between Mount Katahdin in Maine and Mount Oglethorpe in Georgia; it publishes information on conditions of the camps and trail.
Hiking is basic to many sporting activities and is also a widely recommended and practiced form of physical training. For example, hiking constitutes a large part of mountain climbing; experienced mountaineers know that they must train themselves for the long, arduous hikes over the lower trails and across glaciers and snowfields. Backpack camping, hunting, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, and orienteering are other sports and sporting activities in which hiking is important. The ability to walk considerable distances without becoming overtired (an ability generally acquired through practice) also enhances the enjoyment of such other activities as bird-watching, nature walks, field trips of all sorts, and even sightseeing.

Hiking is used as a test of fitness, notably in England, where it is embraced in the duke of Edinburgh’s scheme for boys and girls, and in Sweden and the Netherlands. In Sweden it was made a national fitness test in the early 1930s, and by the 1970s more than three million Swedish men, women, and boys possessed the time qualification badge. The Nijmegen marches in the Netherlands, organized by the Dutch League of Physical Culture, are open to the world in both civilian and military categories. The test comprises four separate days’ consecutive walking over distances up to 35 miles (56 km) each day, with about 12,000 persons taking part.

LAST ATTEMPT, and ILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST! ( Give me three positive and three negative traits about Trevor Noah’s mother explain why two paragraphs!
Answer:
Please brainliest hopefully its enough young one
Explanation:
Trevor’s devout, fearless, and independent mother. The unwanted middle child of Temperance and Frances Noah, she moves from Soweto to the Xhosa homeland in her teenage years, where she works on the family farm and starves. She then decides to train as a secretary even though black women are excluded from secretary jobs during apartheid. When she manages to get work, she secretly moves to a downtown white neighborhood of Johannesburg, where a white man named Robert rents her a room. She convinces Robert to have a child with her (Trevor) and then manages to hide him his entire childhood by keeping him inside or pretending that she is his family maid so that they can be seen together in public. She is dedicated to showing Trevor the possibilities that seem out of reach for someone of their family’s class status, not to mention race, in South Africa—she does this by encouraging to read voraciously, teaching him English as a first language, and taking him on trips. However, she is also a devoted proponent of “tough love,” beating Trevor to teach him lessons about the world’s ruthlessness toward men of color. She is a staunch believer in prayer and takes Trevor to three different churches every Sunday in their secondhand Volkswagen Beetle. During Trevor’s childhood, she manages to move to the colored suburb of Eden Park and then, after briefly living in her husband Abel’s garage in an ill-fated attempt to save his auto repair business, to the white suburb of Highlands North, where they are the only black people besides the white families’ maids. Her relationship with Abel is tumultuous: she insists on her independence, which infuriates him, and his abusiveness worsens over time until she leaves him and he attempts to murder her. Trevor dedicates Born a Crime to his mother, his “teammate” in life, because she has served as the foundation for all his accomplishments, not only by teaching him to think for himself and dream of the kinds of success usually reserved for whites during apartheid, but also by modeling that attitude and success when the odds were stacked against her.

Noah talks about what he learned from his childhood struggles, why being an immigrant has it’s pros and cons, why he doesn’t feel like he has to surpass Jon Stewart’s legacy, why millennials want the same things as older generations and his best career advice to you.
Born in South Africa to a black South African mother and a white European father, Noah has hosted numerous television shows including South Africa’s music, television and film awards, the South African Comedy Festival and two seasons of his own late night talk show, Tonight with Trevor Noah. He made his U.S. television debut in 2012 on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and has also appeared on Late Show with David Letterman, becoming the first South African stand-up comedian to appear on either late night show. Noah recently debuted his one-hour stand-up special, Trevor Noah: Lost in Translation, on Comedy Central.

Is there such a thing as honorable preemptive murder or crime? Is it right to kill in order to prevent something that might happen (i.e. Caesar might have become an evil emperor)?
(julius caesar by shakespeare)
The above question requires a personal answer that shows your opinion on the matter. In that case, it's not correct for me to write an answer for you, but I'll show you how to write it.
This question wants you to consider the murder of Julio Cesar, which took place with the justification of being a preventive homicide. That's because the conspirators claimed that Julio Cesar needed to die to prevent him from becoming a tyrant and a great dictator in the future.
Based on this information, you should think:
Is every murder a crime?Can homicide be joined as something preventive, that wants to prevent something bad from happening?Is this type of murder no longer a crime or is it still a criminal act?Are there any exceptions to this?After reflecting and coming up with an answer to these questions, you should write your answer as follows:
State your opinion on the existence of preventive homicide.Associate your opinion with Julio Cesar's story.Show evidence that your opinion is correct.Associate this opinion with current society.More information:

Which best states how the image add to the text in the passage
Images are used along texts to illustrate elements that cannot be easily described or to illustrate an element previously mentioned.
Texts can include elements such as images that help the author develop the main point or idea. The use of images in texts is quite useful because they convey information in a way a paragraph cannot.
Images are used in texts in the following cases:
In case it is not possible to convey the information through words, for example, it is very difficult to describe statistics in a complete way, instead, you can add a bar chart.In case you need to illustrate an element mentioned in the paragraphs, for example, if you mention a famous person it is a good idea to add a photograph of him or her.Note: This question is incomplete because the image and text are missing; due to this, I answered it based on general knowledge.
