Whenever he took the chair on the exam committee (委员会) ，the students would be in fear,for he was seldom pleased with the answers they gave.

"Good," said the professor, uand how much will you give the patient?"
"A full spoon," answered the student.
"Now you may go out and wait for what you can get," said the professor. At the same time the committee discussed carefully the answers the student had given. Suddenly the student noticed that there was something wrong with his last answer. " A full spoon is too much ," he thought to himself. Anxiously,he opened the door of the room and cried, "Mr. Professor,I've made a mistake!A full spoon is too much for the patient. He can take only five drops."

Strong,healthy teeth help you chew food that helps you grow. They help you speak clearly. And they help you look best. Here are some tips for you to take care of your teeth.
1. Brush your teeth in the right way.
Brush your teeth at least twice a day―after breakfast and before bedtime. If you can,brush them after lunch or after sweet snacks,too.
Brush all of your teeth,not just the front ones. Spend time brushing teeth along the side and back of your mouth. Brush things away from your gums (牙床) too.
