注释：
1.Make sure the clothing is loose,permitting freedom of movement.衣月艮——定要宽松，以便活动自如。make sure意为“确信，保证”，其后面从句的谓语要用一般现在时。一如:Make sure the door is locked before you leave0 permitting freedom of movement是分词短语，用做目的状语。
2.The pain is a warning that the body is becoming too hot.疼痛是一个警告，说明你的身体过热。that the body is becoming too hot 是同位语从句，与 warning 同位，说明warning的内容
3.physical activity：体力活动
4.Hot weather also increases dangers for people who must take medicine for high blood pressure ...炎热天气对于那些必须服药以控制血压的人，…也增加了危险性。
