①Healthy eating habits along with regular (有规律的) exercise are the best way to become fit. If you have
enough energy and exercise regularly, you will lose weight, keep fit, and feel great, too.
②During your teenage years, it is important to give your body the energy it needs—it’s good for your
growth. If you don’t have meals, you won’t get enough calories, and then you will feel tired. About 50% of your
calories should come from rice, bread, vegetables and fruit. You also need to drink a lot of water, 6 to 8 glasses a
day. Water helps keep your system clean. Drinking enough water will make your skin better and make you
healthy.
③Exercise is something that can help to make you look good, feel good and be healthy. Doctors suggest
that teenagers should spend at least 30 minutes exercising a day, five times a week. That is easy to do! You can
walk or ride your bike to school, and do sports at school. However, teenagers often don’t do that, saying they have
no time left after their studies. In fact, doing exercise can help them sleep better at night and pay more attention to
their studies.
④If you follow the suggestions above, you will look and feel much better and become fit.

Most of us spend around 50-60 hours sleeping every week. That’s a lot of time for dirt, sweat and skin cells
(污垢、汗水和皮肤细胞) to build up on our sheets (床单)! Without regular cleaning, the dirt can affect our
health. So it’s very important to keep our sheets clean.
But how often should we wash our sheets? According to the Sleep Foundation, once a week is best. If you
don’t use your bed every day, you can wash the sheets every two weeks. But some people should wash their sheets
even more often.
If you have a pet, you should wash the sheets every three to four days. Pets leave fur and dirt behind. If
you have asthma or allergies (哮喘或过敏症), you may also find it helpful to wash your sheets more often.
There’s another reason to wash your sheets: dust mites (尘螨)! These tiny bugs (小虫子) live on beds. They
are so small that you can’t see them. But they love eating dead skin cells. A bed can have up to 10 million of
them! It sounds horrible, but it’s true.
These bugs are hard to kill, but washing your sheets helps. When you wash your sheets, you wash away
their food and many of the bugs, too. This results in fewer dust mites and a cleaner bed.
So remember, washing your sheets once a week is a smart and healthy habit. It helps you sleep better and
keeps your bed fresh and clean!

Is there a way to quickly recall (回忆) information just before taking an exam? Walking backward might
help you. Scientists from the University of Roehampton in the UK said this activity can help people improve their
short-term memory.
Researchers asked 114 volunteers to watch a video. After watching the video, the volunteers were divided
into three groups. One group was told to walk 10 meters forward. The second group walked 10 meters backward.
The third group stood in one place. All three groups were then asked 20 questions about what they saw in the
video.
The scientists found that the backward-walking group got two more answers correct on average than the
other two groups.
This suggests that the link between the concepts of time and space is important in terms of how our minds
form memories. “Time is really expressed via (通过) space,” Aleksandar Aksentijevic, who led the study, told the
Daily Mail. When you walk backward, you see things from a different angle. This difference helps people recall
things that happened in the past.
And walking backward is also good for the rest of our body. Compared to walking forward, walking
backward is more challenging. This can help us improve our fitness, according to New Scientist. Walking
backward uses more energy in a short time and burns more calories.
In addition, walking backward is less stressful for our knees. It could be helpful for people who often have
pain in their knees, according to researchers from the University of Oregon in the US. Walking backward also
keeps our spines (脊柱) strong, which can help to reduce pain in the lower back. This might be why many old
people like walking backward.
1．In what order does the author develop the passage?
① Explains how scientists tested the idea.
② Introduces the main idea.
③ Lists other benefits of walking backward.
④ Tells why walking backward might work.A．①②③④ B．②①③④ C．②①④③ D．④②①③
2．How did the scientists test the effect of walking backward on memory?
A．By comparing people who walked forward, backward, and stood still.
B．By asking volunteers to walk different distances before a test.
C．By studying the daily habits of people with good memories.
D．By measuring brain activity during different walking styles.
3．What would Aleksandar Aksentijevic most likely agree with?
A．Walking backward improves memory because it increases physical fitness.
B．The way we move through space can influence how we think about time.
C．Walking forward is as effective as walking backward for memory.
D．Short-term memory is most effectively improved by walking backward.
4．Which is the best title for the passage?
A．Walking forward is good for health
B．Scientists study human memory
C．Walking backward: for a better memory and body
D．How to recall information before an exam
Many schools hold sports games in autumn. It turns out that autumn might be the best season to work out!

The Power of a Healthy Breakfast

but eating a good morning meal is one of the smartest choices you can make for your day.

eat and sleep. He got heavier and heavier and finally found it difficult to move his body—even his feet.
The king asked the doctors from different parts of his country to make him healthy. Unluckily, no one could
help the king lose weight.
One day, an old man visited the country. He heard about the king’s problem. He said that he could help the
king lose some weight. The king decided to let him have a try.
The old man lived far away. He said the king had to come to him for the treatment (治疗) the next day. But
the king would have to walk there, the old man added.
The king came the next day. However, the old man was not at home. His son asked the king to come and
meet his father the next day.

so on. It is surprising that very small kids in England know a lot about football. They can tell you the names of theplayers in most of the important teams. They can show you the photos of their favourite players. They can
remember clearly the results of the most important matches. They can even expect which team will win or which
