Growing up, Steph Clemence didn't live in any one place for long because her mother was always on the move. By the time she was a senior in high school, Steph had lived in 25 places. Still, she had good grades and thought she would be going to college. But when her father died in a car accident, leaving her mother to support three daughters, paying for college was out of the question.
Steph found a job and tried to work out what to do with a life that had deviated (偏离) from the plan she'd carefully laid out.
The answer came one afternoon when she was cleaning her drawer (抽屉) and found a handout titled “Mrs. Clark's Book List.” It was from the English teacher she'd had in her junior year at McKenzie High School in Vida, Oregon.
One afternoon, Mrs. Clark walked into the classroom carrying a pile (摞) of handouts. She asked each student to take one. It could be a road map, she said.
“Some of you mightn't go on to higher education,” Mrs. Clark said, “but you can continue to learn.” She'd spent months creating a list of 153 books from the United States and abroad.
Steph studied the list. And so it began. “I was hopeful and decided to improve myself,” Steph says. “I would read every book in the order they appeared.”
Over the years, the reading list was a constant (不变的事物) in her life, traveling with her even on vacations. When the original (原先的) list wore out, she typed up a new copy. And then another.
Now Steph is 70, and she never did get to college. But she has only four books left to read from the list. She expects to finish them sometime in 2023.
“Each of the books has added something to who I am and how I see the world,” she says. “They've opened so many doors for me about the environment, history, etc. I'm no expert, but I now have the background to see why things happened and what they might mean.”
4. What did Steph dream of doing as a senior in high school
A. Going to college. B. Landing a good job.
C. Making a lot of money. D. Traveling around the world.
5. What did Steph realize after seeing Mrs. Clark's Book List
A. She loved reading so much.
B. She had almost forgotten her goal.
C. She had been living a meaningless life.
D. She could continue to learn even without school.
6. What can we learn about 70-year-old Steph
A. She has made it to college.
B. She hopes to write her own books.
C. She has almost read all the books on the list.
D. She plans to create a new reading list for herself.
7. How does Steph feel about reading books
A. It has made a difference to her. B. It allows her to become an expert.
C. It has become a main part of her life. D. It is a habit everyone should develop.
C
Good health is the most valuable thing a person can have, but one cannot take good health for granted. It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape: eat right food, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.
Proper nutrition (营养) is important for good health. Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of “fuel”(燃料). Don’t eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein, like meat, fish, eggs and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals. However, don’t overeat. It is not helpful to be overweight.
Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don’t get enough sleep, you feel tired and easily get angry. You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality.Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.
Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your life-span (寿命). Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shapes: basketball, swimming, bicycling, running and so on are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.
If everybody were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.

A．we should always keep fit
B．if we were healthy, we could spend our days in doing things with less sleep
C．one can eat a lot to stay in good shape
D．one needn’t take any exercise if he is healthy
9．In order to keep good health, ________.
A．we should eat a lot of sweets
B．one needs a large amount of fat
C．people should eat according to the foods’ nutrition
D．we must try to sleep now and then
10．Eating more and sleeping less________.
A．can keep healthy B．is no good for you
C．gets you more energy D．will keep your personality
11．The writer explains ________in this passage.
A．how to eat B．the importance of doing exercise

It is natural for us teenagers to feel upset. 16 Here I am offering some useful suggestions.
Move your body.
17 Have you ever noticed that you feel happier and have a sense of achievement after a good workout That’s because working out creates endorphins —body chemicals that make us feel happy. No matter how low you are feeling, your mood will get a well-deserved boost（改善） after a workout. Exercise also helps you keep your heart in shape, makes you stronger and helps you stay at a healthy weight. And exercise is totally fun —and it’s great for your self-esteem, too.
Talk about it.
18 Friends’ ears can be a great source of support since you’re all in the same boat. And don’t forget your mom —she was once a teenager as well and may understand more than you realize. Even talking to your pet can help —just saying things out loud can help you see things differently and calm you down.
Laugh a lot.
Humour can rescue you from an upset moment or make you feel better when you’re in an unpleasant mood. No matter what’s going on, the ability to laugh at yourself and your situation is really important. 19 It’s true! Using your smile muscles tells your brain to make more endorphins and that boosts your mood.
Cry —it’s okay!
Sometimes the only way to get out of your feelings is to cry —so go ahead! Shut yourself in your room and cry your eyes out! No one says you have to be happy all the time. 20
A. Why not pack up your suitcase and take a trip
B. We can’t say enough good things about exercise.
C. But still we should find ways to manage our feelings.
D. So smile at whatever is happening and choose to be happy.
E. And do you know just smiling can help better your mood
F. When you are done, you’ll be ready to face the world again.
G. Don’t hold in all those feelings until you are ready to explode.
