Both my wife and I are running lovers. I usually run on the track in my neighbourhood. Most people

them twenty or more times around the track. This makes me feel 6 5 .
One day, a short man came. He didn’t look like much of a runner. I saw him
66 the car and warm up before running when I passed by two walkers. He
started running a few meters ahead of me. He was fast but I 6 7 and managed

It might be fun to use your smartphone, but be careful. Too much screen
time may be h 71 to your health.
First, it is bad for your eyes. A researcher called Sarah Hinkley says the
problem comes from the blue light that the screen gives out. Looking at a smartphone for a long time
can c 72 eye strain（ 劳损）, headaches and dry eyes. So it is a good idea to take a b 73
every 15 minutes when you are working at a computer or using a smartphone.
Second, screen use can do harm to children’s brains. A new s 74 shows that using
screens too much can affect how children’s brains grow. If children use screens for more than one
hour a day, they might have lower levels of white matter in their brains. White matter is a key to the
development of language and reading skills. So it is wise to cut down the time of children using all
kinds of screens.
Third, using screens too much will affect your s 75 . According to a survey, about 95%
of the people between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially the young people
under 20. Doctors say that the light from those electronics at night may make you e 76
before you go to bed. Then it’s hard for you to get enough rest at night. So you’d better turn off
smartphones, TVs, and all other screens an hour before your bedtime.
To keep healthy, doctors and researchers strongly a 77 that you shouldn’t use screens
for long hours. In this way, you can protect your health.

Clara Prado has worked as an English teacher for more than twenty
years. In a recent interview, she told us her own experience of learning and
teaching English.
How did you learn English yourself?
I started learning English when I was about six or seven years old. A new language school
opened near my home. I started attending classes twice a week. I enjoyed these classes. During my
teenage years, I attended several international youth meetings. I also went to Australia as an
exchange student. I learned a lot from communicating with native English speakers.
What’s the best part of teaching English for you?
I have met many wonderful people throughout my career. Teachers are a fun group of people.
They often get excited about a challenge. Many teachers are creative. They almost always find a
way to make things work. I’ve learned a lot from them.
And then there are the students. There is nothing better in life than to see them realize their
dreams and achieve something they have worked hard for.
What suggestions do you always give to your students?
初三英语 第 7 页 共8页As a language learner, you have to be comfortable with making mistakes. The goal is not to be
perfect. It’s to be able to communicate with others. Learning a language can be a lifelong process.
No one can learn to speak a language well overnight. You will be speaking just a little more every
day.
What challenges do you think learners face today?
I think the biggest challenge today is the unknown. Technology and many other things are
changing fast. We have no way of knowing what will happen in 10, 20 or 50 years from now, so
how can you prepare yourself or others? Well, you can’t be prepared for everything. But you can
equip yourself with creativity and the ability to keep learning throughout your life and to work with
others. Most importantly, you must stay strong and carry on.
78. What is the interview with Clara Prado about?
It is about .

of making mistakes?
