They were both very old and they worried about their health. Most of the time they talked about nothing else.

They worried about being hurt in a car accident, killed in a plane crash, getting sick, and so on.
All they could think about was being ill or hurt.
One day they went on a train journey together.
“We’ll need some food,”Pearl said.
“We’ll buy some bananas,”June said.“They are good to eat and always clean.”
And so they bought two bananas to eat on the train.
It was not long before they were hungry.
Pearl took out the bananas and gave one to June. Then she peeled(剥)the skin of her banana and took a large bite of it.

Jenny:  Don’t get nervous before you start to listen to something. You need to relax. This will help.

Shirley: When you’re listening, try to do some thinking. For example, you can think of the following questions: What happened? When, Where and how? What was the result (结果)and what did the speaker want to tell us? In this way, you may understand the passage better.

Josh:  It’s important for you to remember some important facts. for example, if the passage is a science report , you should try to remember its results and how the scientists got them.

What will you do if weight keeps going up? Here are ideas to help you stay healthy:

Don’t sit around

Stay active. Try to exercise 30 to 60 minutes every day. Your exercise doesn’t have to be hard. Start small. Take the stairs instead of the elevator(电梯). Walk or ride a bike to places such as school or a friend’s house. Help your mum with housework, such as cleaning windows or the bathroom. It all burns fat. Make changes from time to time so you don’t get bored: Try running, biking, skating. There are many choices. Don’t spend long hours watching TV or playing video games. Even reading a book burns more fat.

Eat healthy

Truly different kinds of food and get enough fruits and vegetables each day. Drink water and low fat milk instead of soft drinks like Cola. Stay away from fast food. Eat when you are hungry, not when you are bored or because you can’t think of anything else to. Don’t eat meals or snacks while watching TV because you’ll probably end up eating more than you need. Some worry so much about their weight that they don’t eat breakfast. This is a bad idea. Teenagers need enough food. If not, you won’t get the nutrients you need to grow normally.

Don’t rush to go on a diet

Even if you are a little heavier than your fiends, you still may be normal. Remember to talk to doctors and your parents before you decide to lose weight.

Chairman Mao once said: “It is not hard to do one good deed. It is hard to do good deeds all your life.” Guo Mingyi, 52, a worker in Anshan, Liaoning, did just that. Over the past 20 years, Guo has donated 60,000 milliliters(毫升) of blood. That is the blood of 10 people put together.
　　 Once, on a cold winter of 2009, Guo got a call from the hospital. The doctors told him that a patient needed a blood donation. Guo didn’t have time to eat lunch. He travelled in the snow to get to the hospital. When he finished donating the blood, he was so tired that he fell asleep on the hospital bed.
　　 Guo and his family live a simple life. He and his wife and daughter live in a house of only 40 square meters. They don’t have a lot of money, but Guo saves money to support poor children. In the past 16 years, he has donated over 100,000 yuan to more than 180 poor students. When the parents met him, many cried. “He looks poorer than us,” they said.
　　 Guo has also offered hands to thousands of workers, friends and strangers. His warm heart has moved many people. They call him a “Modern-Day Lei Feng”.
