Running wasn’t so popular in the
past
．
In the
1960s
,
runners were mostly
athletes and healthy strong
people
．
When
people saw a runner
,
they
used
19
,
“
Hey
,
what’s the hurry
for
？”
or they might say to
20
,
“
Is he
crazy
？”
At that
time
,
women almost never
ran
．
If they
did
,
they might be laughed
at
．
But today
all
these have
21
. Men and women of all
22
enjoy running.
Doctors say
many of the health problems in the United States
23
these bad habits: eating
too much

exercise

Doctors
tell
us

A young man
went to visit a wise man living deep in the
mountain for the wisdom of life.
“
Excuse me! Could you please
tell me what the most
26
day in our lives
is
？
Is it the day when we
were born or the day we
27
？
Is it the day when we fall
in love or the day we
succeed
？”
The young man
asked.
“
28
．
The most important day in
our lives is today.
”
The wise
man replied calmly.
“
Why
？”
The young man felt more than
29
．
“
Is it because
there is a moving event taking place
today
？”
“
No<
/p>
．
Nothing has happened
today
．
”
“
Is it because of my
visit
？”
“
Even if nobody visited me
today
,
today is
30
very important because today is the
only wealth we
have
．
No matter
how memorable yesterday is
,
i
t has gone by like a ship going down
into the sea; no matter
how bright
tomorrow may be
,
it is yet
to come; but no matter how common today
is
,
it is
31
our control
(
控制
).
”
The
young man still wanted to ask
something
,
while the wise
man
32
him and
said
,
“
When we
are
talking about the meaning of
today
,
we have
33
a lot of
it
．
”
The young man nodded and then went down
the mountain.
Actually
,
today
is the only
34
we have.
So
,
what we should do now is
to
35
yesterday and
tomorrow and
catch fast today!

A
Our village carpenter
(
木匠
)
,
John
,
came one day and made
a dining table for my
wife
．
He made it just
the right size for the space between
the two windows
．
When I got
home that evening
,
John was
drinking a cup
of tea and writing out
his bill for the job.
My wife said to
me
quietly
,
“
That’s
his ninth cup of tea
today
．
”
But she
said
,
in a loud
voice
,
“
It’s a
beautiful table
,
dear
,
isn’t
it
？”
“
I’ll decide about that when
I see the bill.
”
I said.
John laughed and gave me his bill for
the work
．
I read:

1998
Cost of wood
Paint
$$17.00
$$1.50

it
？
Quite
sunny

”
“
Yes.
”
I
said

“
Me
,
too.
”
said
John
．
“
You wait
—

colder by the end of the
month
．
”
“
Yes
,
col
der
—
and more expensive! A
dining table will be $$20 more expensive on
November 30
,
won’t
it
,
John
？”
John looked hard at me for half a
minute
．
Was there a little
smile in his two blue eyes
？
I
gave his bill
back to him.
“
If there isn’t too much
trouble
,
John
,
”
I
said
,
“
please add
it up again
．
You can forget
the date…
”
I
paid him $$26.50 and he was happy to get it.
36

．

A
．
$$20.00
C
．
$$56.50

Height is just one of the
features your genes (
基因
)
decide
．
In
fact
,
because you have two
parents
,
your
genes
provide
you
a
height
that
usually
lands
somewhere
between
the
height
of
eac
h
parent
．
If
both
your
parents
are tall
,
then most probably
you will be tall
,
too
．
But if you have
questions about how tall you’re
going
to be
,
ask your doctor if he
or she can help you find them out.
But
genes don’t dec
ide
everything
．
For
example
,
eating an unhealthy
diet can keep you from growing to
your
full potential (
潜力
)
．
Getting plenty of sleep and enough
exercise will help you grow to the expected
height.
It’s
natural
that
you’re
wondering
how
fast
you
should
gro
w
．
There’s
no
perfect
or
right
answer
．
Generally
speaking
,
kids grow about 6
cm a year between age 3 and the time when they
start puberty .
Your doctor
will know how your growth has been going over the
years
．
2 cm here and 3 cm
there
make a little
differe
nce to the height you’re at
now
．
How have you been
growing up to this
height
？
What other
changes may your body be going
through
？
Don’t be amazed if you seem to have
grown a lot in a very short
time
．
Everyone has a growth
spurt (
高峰
)
during
puberty
．
The age for starting
puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for
boys
．
But it can be earlier
or
later
—
between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.
You’ll usually begin to notice that
you’re growing faster about a year after
yo
ur body starts to show the
first changes of puberty.
41
．
If you want to
know how tall you should
grow
,
_______.
A
．
you should have
enough exercise
B
．
you can ask
doctors for help
C
．
you should take
some special medicine
D
．
you can record
your growth during puberty
42
．
The Chinese
for the word
“
puberty
”
is _______.
A
．童年时期
C
．习惯养成期
B
．婴幼儿时期
D
．生长发育期
43
．
This passage
is mainly about ______.
A
．
how the genes
work in your body
B
．
how your
parents’ height influence you
C
．
how
you look like your parents
