    Nick is a 14-year-old school boy. His life is f of exams and studies on weekdays. He has little f time. He thinks playing computer games is the best way to make him r .When he has free time, he sits in f of the computer. Just like that way, he n eats nor drinks for several hours.

    Last weekend, he played games on the computer again. He was too excited and didn't want to move. He didn't have anything for six hours. When he had to go to the bathroom, he found he could not move. He was taken to the hospital. The doctor told him he should do some more d kinds of activities.

    Several days ago, some students from the US visited our school. When we talked, I discovered 1 differences in school life between the US and China. For example, each class 2 fifty minutes in the US. It is a little 3 than that in China. We usually have forty or forty-five minutes in each class. Another difference is that they have less break time between 4. Besides, although most schools in both countries finish their 5 classes at 12 o'clock, the students in the US only have an hour-long break, so they 6 eat lunch quickly. Their afternoon classes begin at 1:00 pm and school is over 7 3:00 pm. Then they take part in club activities or play sports.

    Many Chinese students don't work during their high school years, while the US students like to find a part-time job in 8 free time. They don't have a dream job in mind. They think 9 is no difference between jobs. Working is a useful experience for them and they can make money at the same time. Some of them even take one-year full-time jobs 10 they leave high school and then go to college.

    In the nineteenth century football began to be played in English public schools. The public schools were actually very expensive private(私立的) schools attended by the sons of the rich and powerful.

    The headmasters (校长) of three schools--Rugby, Eton and Harrow--began to develop new versions of football. The game became less violent (激烈的), less dangerous and easier to control（控制). It became a game for young gentlemen.

    Each public school divided its pupils into clubs or "houses". The houses played football matches against each other, with each house wearing a particular(特定的) colour.

    The first football clubs were organized(组织) in the same way as the house teams. Later the house competitions were used as a model(模型，模范) for the FA Cup(the Football Association Challenge Cup(英格兰足球杯).

    Many of the boys at the public schools went on to the two English universities, Oxford and Cambridge. Football was very popular at Cambridge, but the young men from the different schools played with different rules. In 1848 a set of Cambridge Rules were established(制定) for everyone to play under. Some of these rules now seem a little strange.

      The problem started when the family moved and Chris switched schools. He made friends with new kids, some of whom used drugs(毒品) . The first time Chris used cocaine（可卡因） was with friends at Larry's house. Everyone pooled their money to buy few grams of cocaine. Larry told them, “It's safe as long as you don't use it too often. It won't  turn you into an addict(成瘾者) like other drugs.

      During the following year, the group tried crack (价格不贵的强效纯可卡因)) along with cocaine. Chris bragged (吹嘘)， “I can handle this material!” Larry agreed. “As long as you only take a little bit, you'll be okay. He said. When one friend died in the hospital from an overdose(过量)，Chris thought, “That'll never happen to me. Since I'm mostly smell the drug, I won't have any problems.

       At 16, he lefthome without telling them where he was going. Just because his parents tried to change his mind .He lasted two weeks working at a pizza shop , and then he started selling cocaine. “I'll only do this until I get back on my feet(独立的)," he told himself.

      Chris's family found him living alone in a rundown(荒芜的) part of town. A school friend had called the family to tell them where he was. “It probably saved my life,”Chris says. “I was half-dead.”

      To pay for Chris to enter a drug treatment center, his dad took a second job. Chris is grateful to getting treatment. Now he's able to see colors again. In the depths of his addiction he saw everything in black and gray.
