5.根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
You must have heard about jogging(慢跑)as a popular way of keeping fit, but what about plogging? Plogging is a mix of jogging and picking up litter, coming from the Swedish phrase \"plocka upp\". It started as an organized activity in Sweden around 2016 and then spread to other
countries step by step. For exercising, plogging is much better than simply running, because it provides changes in body movements by adding bending(弯曲), squatting(蹲) and stretching(伸展).
As 2018's hottest fitness way, plogging has become popular in more than 40 countries, from the US to France and Australia to Thailand. The idea of plogging is to pay attention to environmental protection as well as physical health — to care for Mother Nature as well as your body. \"I run a lot and I love to spend time in nature. When I find litter out in the woods, it makes me sad and a bit angry. Plogging is a natural way to do something about that,\" Tesch said.\" It's so easy to just pick up the litter and put it in the nearest bin, and it makes you feel that you're making a difference!\"
Have you noticed people jogging while carrying trash bags recently? Or running along with hands full of dirty plastic bottles? You might do soon! Because plogging has reached China. Olivier, a Frenchman married to a Chinese girl, began promoting(促进)plogging in Huizhou, Guangdong Province, back in April. He and his wife were the only ones doing it at first, he said, but the craze soon caught on. The couple have set up a WeChat group for people to learn more about plogging. Currently there are more than 100 people from different parts of the country in the group to take an active part in the environmental movement. In honor of World Environment Day this year, the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China(中国工商银行)started plogging campaigns (运动)in 280 cities, attracting 13,000 people to join in.
Plogging can be done almost anytime and anywhere, and costs almost nothing. Will you take it up?
(1)What's the meaning of the word \"plogging\"? (2)Where did the activity first start?
(3)Up to 2018, how many countries has the activity spread to? (4)Why can the idea of plogging become so popular?
(5)How did Olivier and his wife make people learn more about plogging?
【答案】 (1)It's a mix of jogging and picking up litter, coming from the Swedish phrase \"plocka upp\". (2)In Sweden.
(3)More than 40 countries.
(4)Because it is to pay attention to environmental protection as well as physical health./Because it cares for Mother Nature as well as your body.
(5)The couple set up a WeChat group for people to learn more about plogging/By setting up a Wechat group for people to learn more about plogging.

There were fewer and fewer male dinosaurs. Mother dinosaurs could not give birth to more babies. Finally, these powerful animals disappeared.
