In many Chinese cities, primary and middle schools have made class breaks longer from 10 to 15 minutes
since the fall semester (学期) started. The governments (政府) want students and teachers to do more outdoor
activities.
Before, Chinese schools usually had 10-minute breaks. But it was not enough time for students, especially
those in tall buildings, to go outside and play. Sometimes, schools didn’t let students leave the classroom during
breaks because they were worried about safety.
Now, local education departments (部门) are trying to make school schedules better. They want students to
have at least 30 minutes of exercise every day.
In Beijing, primary schools’ morning and afternoon times haven’t changed. Middle schools end five
minutes later.
In Yangzhou, Jiangsu, schools have 15-minute breaks and one PE class every day. Students must do at least
100 minutes of exercise at school. The education officer said this helps students play outside and talk to each
other. They want to give break time back to students.
A Qingdao primary school has many outdoor games like jump rope and hula hoop, and indoor puzzles
during 15-minute breaks. In May, a fitness test showed that 47 percent of Qingdao students got “excellent” or
“good” fitness grades, 10 percent more than before.

Baduanjin, we will feel relaxed. It’s a healthy sport for both men and women, young and old. It makes thin people
strong and fat people lose weight.
To meet the needs and tastes of learners, the writer of the book made some changes to the ancient exercise.The book is full of simple words. Besides the introduction to each movement, it also tells the basic health

Do you want to eat more healthily? Try this app. It is called Food Trainer, and it was made by a group of
scientists in the UK. It helps people eat less junk food through a game.
In the free game, healthy food always appears in green circles and unhealthy food always comes in red
circles. If a user taps (轻击) on an object in the green circle, he or she can get a point. But tapping on an object in
the red circle will lose a point.
Does this simple game work well? The makers of the app carried out a study. They worked with some
scientists from the University of Helsinki in Finland. Together they invited more than 1,200 volunteers to play the
game once a day. After a month, the volunteers reported changes in their diet and weight. Most of them said they
had started eating more healthy food. Some volunteers used to eat junk food two to four times a week. At the end
of the study, they had cut it down to once a week, so each volunteer lost more than half a kilogram of weight.
The app works so well! That’s because it uses mind training techniques (大脑训练技术) to make people
lose interest in junk food. Through practice, the game trains users’ minds to put the brakes (刹车) on as soon as
they see junk food. This helps users say no to unhealthy food in their daily lives!All in all, this game app can help people keep healthy!
1．What is the name of the game app?
2．What can we do to get a point on the app?
3．How many volunteers took part in the study?
4．Why does the app work so well?
5．What do you think of this game app?

We usually go to see a doctor when we are ill. Doctors may give us some medicine, and the medicine often
makes us feel better.
But sometimes the doctor’s medicine doesn’t work. This happened to one man, Thomas Smith. He was ill
in hospital, but he wasn’t getting well. Then he found a new “doctor” inside himself. He saw funny films. He read
funny books. And something wonderful happened. Laughing took away his pain after half a year. He could have a
good night’s rest. His own happy feeling helped him get well again. He wrote his story in his book. He said
laughing was very useful. It was the best “medicine”.
Another man, Simon Beck, was also ill, and he had a serious pain in his back. The doctor couldn’t stop it,
so the man began to “picture” his pain. In his head he “drew” a picture of a dog. He imagined it to be a real dog.
And it was hurting him. Then the man talked softly to the dog. He put his hand on the dog’s head and made
friends with it. One year later, his pain went away!
These stories may surprise you, but more and more people are getting well in this way. So call on the
“doctor” inside your mind, and keep happy and well!

Have you ever heard of the word “obesity”? It’s a big word that means having too much body fat, and it’s
becoming a big problem all around the world.
A new report warns that more than half of the world’s population will be overweight by 2035 if we don’t do
something about it. That’s more than 4 billion people! The report also says that some countries in Africa and
Southeast Asia are expected to see the greatest rise in obesity. This is because people there are eating more
processed foods and not getting enough help from healthcare services.
Obesity is bad for our health. It has become one of the most serious problems about health all around theworld. The medical cost of obesity is also high for us. The cost for a man is $2,464 a year, and for a woman, the
cost is $4,879.

getting worse. This includes making healthier foods available, encouraging people to be more active, and helping
people learn about good health habits.

Why should students play sports? Some people think that students play sports in order to get exercise and
have fun. But these are not enough. If students play sports, they can get more than healthy bodies. Why? Here are
three reasons.
Students who play sports do better in school. Some people think that doing exercise will take up (占去)
students’ study time. But a recent study has shown that students who play sports get better scores in school than
those who don’t. Exercise gets students to learn, remember things and concentrate (集中注意力) better.
Students who play sports develop their team spirit and learn problem-solving skills better. When they are
working together with others to win games and reach goals, they’re learning how to be successful in practice. And
these skills will be useful to them for their study or future work.
Playing sports can also improve confidence. Students who play sports feel better about themselves. When
they know they can improve themselves and reach their goals by practising, their confidence improves. And sports
can also help them communicate (交流) with others actively and make new friends.
Now, how about going out to play sports with your friends every day?根据语篇内容，回答下列问题。

Today, people care about their health much more than before and want to get a great body shape. This is
because when we are in good shape, we feel fit and healthy. We feel good about ourselves and feel much more
confident than before. When you want to be healthy, just working out will not do. You have to take care of your
overall (全面的) health by eating proper food, doing the right kind of exercises and keeping yourself happy.
The first thing that needs to be done is to reduce the intake (摄入) of calories (卡路里). The calorie content
(含量) of each meal should not be higher than 400 calories. Ideally, one is well advised to have three meals in a
day. There should be a gap of at least three hours between each meal. Fresh vegetables, fruits, egg whites, fish,
chicken breast are some of the foods that can provide you with the right nutrients and help you get in shape at the
same time.
Many people make the mistake of avoiding strength training when they are trying for weight loss. They
think that strength training will increase their body weight. However, this is not true. Be careful not to over-
exercise in order to lose weight fast. Too much exercises can cause injury to you.
Drinking 8-10 glasses of water can help in reducing fat. If you drink ice-cold water, then it will burn out
some extra calories from your body. This is because when you are drinking cold water, your body needs to raise
the temperature of the water up to your body temperature. In this process, almost one calorie of fat gets burned
from the body. Drinking a glass of water before a meal will be helpful in this regard.
You can get a healthy body only if your mind is away from stress. Stress can also lead to other health
problems like high blood pressure, upset stomach, headaches, etc. For all these reasons, special efforts need to be
taken to relax your mind.1．Is working out enough for people to keep healthy?
2．How long should people wait between meals?
3．Why can’t people over-exercise?
4．After reading this passage, what will you do to have overall health? (至少两条)

looking at your computer screen.
◆ Exercise your eyes, and be sure to relax.
Here is a good way: Sit down, put your elbows (胳膊肘) on your knees, close your eyes and rest them in
your hands. Let your hands cover your eyes for 10 seconds. Do it several times a day.

2．What can we put on our eyes before going to bed at night?
3．What will happen if we spend too much time looking at computers screen?
4．How long should we cover our eyes with hands if we want to relax them?
5．How many pieces of advice does the text tell readers?Many people take running as a way to keep fit. They like to run in hot weather and enjoy the feeling of
being wet through with sweat while running. Cold weather during winter months, with low temperatures and
freezing cold winds, may keep many people from running in the open air.
However, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, running in cold
weather helps improve one’s performance. Many runners might find it easier to run in winter than in hot weather.
The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather. In addition, lower temperatures reduce stress on
the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is lower.
John Brewer is a professor of applied sports science at St. Mary’s University in London. For this study, he
and other researchers put a group of people into a room where summer and winter weather conditions are
recreated. The test subjects (对象), were asked to run 10,000 meters under both conditions and their biological
measurements were recorded and studied.
From the study, every movement runners make produces heat. The heat can be really damaging unless the
body can lose it. One way in which people lose heat is by sweating. The body loses heat through sweat. The body
also loses it by transporting (输送) the blood to the surface of the skin and it puts more stress on the heart,
especially in hot conditions because it’s much harder to lose heat when the outside environment is warm. As the
result shows, running in hot temperatures results in 6 percent higher heart rates.
When running in cold conditions, the body does not have to work hard to move blood to the skin surface.
Therefore, it requires less energy. The most important thing for people who run in cold conditions is to wear the
right clothing. Keep as dry as possible when exercising in low temperatures. Wear warm and light clothing to keep
sweat away from your skin. So don’t let winter weather keep you indoors. Simply get ready for the low
temperatures and start running.
1．Do people like to run in cold weather?
2．Why did John Brewer make a group of people run in a room?3．How do people lose heat?
4．Why is it the most important to wear the right clothing for people running in cold condition?

Bitter cold
As the temperatures have dropped dramatically in recent weeks, you will hear more and more sneezing and
“bless you” afterwards. Everyone seems to be talking about this year’s flu season. A news report from the US
made the cold season sound even more horrible last week.
The US Food and Drug Administration is considering banning the sale of over-the-counter cough and cold
medicines for young children because of its weak treatment and unsafe side effects.
What should you do if the doctors are still arguing about what to write on the prescription? If you do get
sick, knowing what to do can help you feel better faster.
How can you prevent getting a common cold?
★Practice preventative measures: wash your hands, and keep your fingers away from your eyes and nose.
★Avoid close contact with cold sufferers.
★Help your immune system: get plenty of rest, drink lots of water, eat well-balanced meals, sleep for 7-8
hours per night and take regular exercise.
Try these tips if you get the flu:
★Drink lots of fluids.
★Get lots of sleep and take it easy. This is a great time to chill with your favorite DVDs without your mom
or dad asking you to help out around the house!
★Take painkillers to relieve fever and aches. Over-the-counter cold or cough medicines may also relieve
some flu symptoms. Avoid taking aspirin, though, unless your doctor says it’s OK. Aspirin can put teens at greater
risk of developing another serious illness that sometimes follows infection with the flu virus.
★Wear layers. You might be cold one minute and hot the next, and wearing several layers—like a T-shirt,
sweatshirt and robe—makes it easy to add or remove clothes as needed.
★Wash your hands frequently. You don’t want to spread the flu to everyone else, if you can help it. Also,
avoid sharing cups and eating utensils with other people.★ Get the flu vaccine in advance. Flu vaccines are available commonly as a shot. The shot contains killed
flu viruses that won’t cause people to get the flu, but will cause the body to make antibodies to fight off infection
by the live flu virus. Getting a shot of the killed virus causes your body to be protected against the particular type
of live flu virus that’s in the vaccine.
The flu shot is about 80 percent effective against the flu, which means that a few people who get the shot
will still possible to get the flu. In addition, the shot only contains certain strains of the virus.
