Hi Grace,

How's it going? Sorry I haven't emailed for a while, but I had so much to do!

I had told you about my decision to take up a sport. I knew I wasn't fit and I wanted to get some exercise. But that wasn't the only reason that I decided to do a sport. Students who play sports do better at school. 1.                    Exercise also helps learning and memory (記憶).

 2.                 First, I tried soccer. I had played a bit of soccer before and I thought it wouldn't be too bad. I knew I couldn't nm for very long without feeling tired. On the first day, I was able to nm for the first ten minutes, but then I was so tired that I couldn't even kick the ball!

Then, I tried volleyball. 3.               I was able to run for the first twenty minutes and I wasn't the slowest runner in the team! After a few weeks .I could run faster and longer. I was doing better and feeling better. 4.            Maybe I'm not a team sport person after all!

Finally, I tried kung fu (功夫). It's a great sport that exercises the body and the mind. You learn to follow instructions carefully and do what you are asked to do. This is the right sport for me!  5.                 I feel so confident that l even showed some moves to the class last week! Can you believe it?

I hope you're OK! Write and let me know what you've been doing!

Bye for now!

Old Cremona Violins
Most musicians(音樂家) agree that the best violins(小提琴) were first made in Cremona, Italy, about 200 years ago. These violins sound better than any others. They even sound better than violins made today. Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments(樂器) like the Italian violins. But they aren’t the same. Musicians still prefer the old ones.
Some people think it is the age of the violins. But not all old violins sound wonderful. Only the old violins from Cremona are special(特殊的). So age cannot be the answer.
Other people think the secret to those violins is the wood. The wood must be from certain kinds of trees.
But the kind of wood may not be so important. It may be more important to cut the wood in a special way. Wood for a violin must be cut very carefully. It has to be the right size and shape(形狀). The smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. Musicians sometimes think that this was the secret of the Italians. Maybe they understood more than we do about how to cut the wood.
Size and shape may not be the answer, either. Scientists can make new ones that are exactly the same size and shape. But the new violins still do not sound as good as the old ones. Some scientists think the secret may be the varnish. Varnish is what covers the wood of the violin. It makes the wood look shiny. It also helps the sound of the instrument. But no one knows what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish.

Most of us use alarm clocks to wake up at the right time for school or work. We look at our watches to know the right time for the bus or train. However, there is also a right time to eat, sleep, exercise, and take medicine, too. We can’t look at a clock for the right time for these activities. We must listen to the clock inside our bodies: the biological clock.

Barbara Wells exercised every morning. She woke up at 6:00 am. She ran about two miles before she went to work. But Barbara’s legs and back started to hurt. She did some exercises before she ran. But her legs and back still hurt. She ran slower, but the pain didn’t stop. Barbara talked to her doctor. The doctor said, “Don’t run in the morning. Try to exercise later in the day. That is the time when your body is at the right temperature for exercises after work.” Her legs and back don’t hurt anymore.

Today, doctors are learning more about chronobiology (時(shí)間生物學(xué)), the study of biology clocks. They are learning about the importance of time for our bodies. For example, it is best for people to go to sleep at the same time every night and to eat only when they’re hungry. Also, doctors discovered that some illness, such as heart attacks(心臟病), occur(發(fā)生)most often in the morning. This information tells them that the best time to take heart medication may be at night. When patients take heart medicine at night, they may prevent a heart attack in the morning.

Many doctors believe chronobiology can help us live healthier lives. It may be the right time to listen to these doctors!

35. Do we all have a biological clock inside our bodies?

36 How far did Barbara Wells run every morning?

37. How did Barbara’ legs and back get well?

38. What is the right time for a heart attack person to take heart medicine?

39. What can we learn from the passage?

Jealousy（妒忌）is a very common problem in daily life．It’s everywhere．For example, if someone does better than you, you will get annoyed because you want to be No．1．We may become jealous of a best friend’s top marks in an exam, or of the girl in art class who is praised by the teacher all the time．We get annoyed because these good things are happening to someone else but not to us．

It’s bad to feel jealous．We should be pleased with the things that we have． But we still wish we had the money of this person and the talent of that person．Instead of sharing their happiness, we just feel jealous and unhappy with ourselves．And, too often, these feelings are expressed by speaking ill of the people we envy．

However, envy is also a kind of compliment（敬意）to others．We see that other people have styles and talents different from our own．By comparing ourselves with others, we can know the lack（缺乏）．And we can turn this comparison, the envy of others, into a kind of power．

Therefore, being a bit jealous of others lets us know what we are like and what we want to be like．It can push us to become what we really want to be．

1．According to the first paragraph, why do you get annoyed?

A． Because the teacher dislikes others．

B． Because others do something better than you．

C． Because you are an annoying person．

D． Because you want to be No． 1 in the exam and you do．

2．If we feel jealous, it shows that          ． 

A． we aren’t pleased with the things we have

B． we wish we had little money

C． we get good remarks in our exams

D． we can share our problems with others

3．The Chinese meaning of the underlined part “speaking ill of” is “          ”．

A． 贊美．             B．說……的壞話          C．憎恨                     D． 說……病了

4．What should be the right attitude towards jealousy?           ． 

A． It’s a good thing．

B． It’s just a bad thing．

C． It’s a kind of compliment to others．

D． It makes us know what we are like and what we want to be like．
