Your body is special－no two people in the world are the same. Although you are different from everyone else, you have exactly the same body parts as the people around you, doing different jobs that keep all of us alive.
What is inside my head Your head houses the most valuable part of your body－your brain. As you are reading, your eyes send pictures to your brain which makes meaning from what you see. Your brain helps you to remember and think, and makes sure your body is doing what it should.
What is my skin for Your skin covers your body. In most parts of your body, the skin is just as thick as half a centimeter (cm). If you have your skin cut, it will have a quick healing (愈合)and stop viruses (病毒)from getting into your body. Your skin also helps you feel the heat and coldness of the environment around you. Hair grows from inside the skin. When you feel hot, extra heat comes out through your skin. As a result, your body temperature drops.
How do I move Muscles(肌肉)are found in most parts of your body. They work with your bones to help you move－whenever you cry or smile, eat or speak, walk or dance, etc.
Why do I breathe Your body needs to take in oxygen (氧气)from the air and give out the unwanted carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)in the body. When you breathe, air comes through your nose and mouth into your lungs where oxygen flows to different parts of your body.
What makes me sneeze(打喷嚏) When dust or a strong smell gets into your nose, you sneeze. This is the way your body cleans up the dust in your nose. Your lungs push out the air and try to clear your nose.
What does my heart do Your heart has a very special muscle. It is a little bigger than your fist (拳头)and grows bigger as you do. If you place your hand on your heart, you will feel your heart beating which forces blood to move around your body.
65.Which part is the most important part of your body
A. My skin. B. My brain. C. My mouth. D. My nose.
66.If you have no skin covering your body, what would happen
A. Viruses can t get into our body easily.
B. Our body can be guarded (保护)by our hair.
C. Extra heat can only stay inside our body.
D. We can t feel the changes in temperature.
67.What can you learn about your body
A. Sneezing is a way to clear our nose.
B. Our heart is the same size from our birth.
C. We take in carbon dioxide to stay alive.
D. Our muscles stop working when we cry.
68.Which is the best title for this passage
A. What Your Body Needs B. How Your Body Works
C. Why Your Body Grows D. When Your Body Moves

Do you feel lonely when your best friend isn t around Here s our advice to you—and to all kinds who feel lonely sometimes.
It s hard when a best friend isn t around—maybe because he or she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel left out during break（间歇）or lunchtime. You want to make new friends, but how do you find them Maybe it seems like everybody else already has his or her own friends. But remember, there s always room for more friends.
Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you d like to play with during break. Look for chances（机会）to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer（主动提出）to share something or express（表达）your appreciation（欣赏）to them. Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here ” in the lunchroom. When you re at break, walk over to kids you want to play with, act（举止）friendly, and say “Hi, may I join you ” or just join in.
If you have trouble（问题）doing this or if you re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching（相配）people up. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Being kind, being friendly, sharing, saying nice things, offering help—pretty soon, you ll have one, or two, or even more new friends.
You might still miss that special best friend. But when you see each other again, you can share something you didn t have before he or she left: You can introduce him or her to your new friends!
