Growing pains aren't a disease. You probably won't have to go to the doctor for them. But they can hurt. Usually they happen when kids are between the ages of 3 and 5 or 8 and 12. Doctors don't believe that growing actually causes pains, but growing pains stop when kids stop growing. By the teen years, most kids don't get growing pains any more.
Kids get growing pains in their legs. Most of the time, they hurt in the front of the thighs (the upper part of your legs), in the calves (the back part of your legs below your knees), or behind the knees. Usually, both legs hurt.
Growing pains often start right before bedtime. Sometimes you go to bed without any pains, but you might wake up in the middle of the night with your legs hurting. The best news about growing pains is that they go away by morning.
Growing pains don't hurt around the bones or joints (the flexible parts that connect bones and let them move) — only in the muscles (肌肉). For this reason, some doctors believe that kids might get growing pains because they've tried out their muscles. When you run, climb or jump a lot during the day, you might have pains in your legs at night.
Your parents can help you feel better by giving you an over-the-counter(非处方的) painkilling drugs. Kids should not take aspirin because it can cause a rare but serious illness called Reye's syndrome (雷耶氏综合征).
Here are three other things that might help you feel better:
(1) placing a heating pad on the spot where your legs hurt;
(2) stretching your legs like you do in gym class;
(3) having your parents massage your legs.
You might never feel any growing pains, but if you do, remember that before you know them, you will outgrow them!

A.Growing pains are a serious disease which causes much pain.
B.Everyone will experience growing pains from time to time.
C.Growing pains usually only happen during a certain period of one's life.
D.Doctors strongly suggest kids go to hospital to treat growing pains.
2.The fourth paragraph mainly tells us ____________.

C.what causes growing pains D.when to go to the doctor
3.Why shouldn't kids take aspirin to reduce growing pains
A.Because aspirin has no effect on the pains.
B.Because aspirin can cause a serious illness.
C.Because kids tend to take it more than they should.
D.Because other painkilling drugs are much cheaper.
4.The purpose of the author is to ____________.

C.advise doctors to give more help to kids with growing pains
D.warn kids not to do exercise so as not to tire out their muscles
四、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
A young man and a young girl fell in love. But the man came from a poor family. The girl's parents weren't too happy. So the young man decided not only to please the girl but to please her parents as well. Over time, the parents saw that he was a good man and was worthy of their daughter's hand.
But there was another problem: the man was a soldier. Soon, the war broke out and he was being sent overseas for a year. The week before he left, the man went down on one knee and asked the girl, "Will you marry me " She wiped tears and said yes, and they were engaged. They agreed that when he got back in one year, they would get married.
But a tragedy struck. A few days after he left, the girl had a major vehicular accident. It was a head-on collision. When she woke up in the hospital, she saw her father and mother crying. Immediately, she knew that she must have been badly injured.
She later found out that she suffered the brain injury. The part of her brain that controlled her face muscles was damaged. Her once lovely face was now disfigured.
She cried as she saw herself in the mirror. "Yesterday I was beautiful. Today, I'm a monster." Her body was also covered with so many ugly wounds. Right there and then, she decided to release her fiancé (未婚夫) from their promise. She knew he wouldn't want her anymore. She would forget about him and never see him again.
For one year, the soldier wrote many letters—but she didn't answer. He phoned her many times but she didn't return his calls.
But after one year, the mother walked into her room and announced, "He's back from the war." The girl shouted, "No! Please don't tell him about me. Don't tell him I'm here!"
