    Bill was a boy of 15. His parents didn't care about him. Bill often slept in class and always failed in his exams. Neither his teachers nor his classmates liked him.

    One day, Miss Jones, a new teacher, came to Bill's class. She began her lesson. She asked a question. "I'd like the smartest boy to answer my question. ''Then she said loudly, "Bill, please!”

    Bill was surprised. And he stood up without a word.

    "Just try it! I believe you can!" She encouraged(鼓励)Bill.

    After school, Miss Jones had a long talk with Bill. She told him that she cared about him and believed in him.

    Bill thought a lot that evening. From then on, he worked hard and Miss Jones helped him with his homework in the afternoon. She even cooked for him.

    Thanks to better health care, most people are living healthier and longer lives. Someone who is born today(今天出生的人) can expect to live about thirty-five years longer than someone who was born in the nineteenth century. People think that in the future more and more people will celebrate their hundredth birthdays. Here are some rules for a healthy life.

Get off the sofa!

    Sure, it is comfortable to sit on the sofa and watch TV. But doctors say you should get off the sofa. To keep fit, you have to walk at least 10, 000 steps every day. In the past, people's jobs required more physical effort. They often had to walk for miles every day. When farmers were working in the fields, they were keeping fit at the same time. Think about it: Do you get the same amount of exercise today as they did in the past?

    Eat healthy food!

    It is important to eat food that is fresh and natural, for example, fruit and vegetables. Fast food is not healthy. You should only have it once in a while. Eating too much of the wrong food will harm your health.

    Rest while you can!

    When we were babies, we slept for much of the night. Teenagers do not need as much sleep as babies, but it is important for you to get about eight hours' sleep a night. At weekends, you have got more time, so use it not just for your friends, but for rest too.

    Do not worry. Be happy!

    Many people believe that happiness is important for our general health. Sometimes it is not easy to be a teenager because of the difficulties of school, exams or friendships. If you are worried about something, talk to your parents or your teacher.

    Have you ever been to London? How much do you know about London? Now let me tell you.

    London has a population of about 7, 000, 000. From about the year 1800 to 1945, London was the biggest city in the world. But now many cities are even bigger than before.

    London is famous for many things. Tourists come from all over the world to visit its famous buildings and listen to the famous clock, Big Ben.

    Like many big cities, London has problems such as traffic and pollution, and they stop the city from developing. Every day about 1, 000, 000 people come and go by underground, but there are still too many cars and buses in the streets. So the air isn't clean. However, it is cleaner than it was 100 years ago.

    For me, the best things in London are the parks. There are five parks in the city centre. But my children's favourite place is Hamleys, the biggest toy shop in the world.

A. At that time they believed that the girl was really a true princess and they asked the prince to marry(娶)her.

B. One night there was a storm. The guards(警卫)of the palace heard someone knocking at the palace gate. When they opened the door， they found a woman was standing outside the gate. And the woman said that she was really a true princess.

C. The next morning, the queen asked the girl how she slept. "Very badly!" said the girl. "I can't close my eyes all night. I am sure that there's something in the bed. I must lie on something hard so that my body is black and blue."

D. Once upon a time, there was a prince who wanted to marry a princess. He travelled the whole world to find one. But he returned sadly. He didn't find one.

E. The queen heard about this. She asked the servants to make the bed for the girl. They put a pea on the bottom of the bed, they also put twenty mattresses and twenty eiderdown(鸭绒被) on the pea.
