It is very important to keep healthy. I have a neighbor. She is an old woman. She can do all the housework, read newspapers, watch TV and use the     6     to learn something new. She looks young and beautiful     7     she is over seventy.

Last week a reporter from a     8     interviewed (采访) her and asked how she kept so young and healthy.

“I have a secret of keeping young and healthy. It is quite easy. Keep your     9     active, take an interest in the world around you, never think you are too old. Some people say keeping young is difficult for old people. In fact, no matter     10     old you are, you can make it.”

It was Saturday. The ________ was fine. It was good for a trip. Sally and her little son John were walking in the Central Park. When they saw a Chinese trader selling some fruit, John asked his mother to buy him some ________. Sally didn’t bring too much money with her, but it was     ________ to buy two apples. So she ________ to give both of them to John.

John held two apples in his hands. Then Sally asked him if he could ________ one of the apples. When John heard this, he quickly had a bite (咬) of one apple. And before his mother could speak, he also had a bite of the ________ apple. A smile disappeared (消失) from Sally’s face. She couldn’t understand why such a small child would do this terrible action.

Suddenly, John ________ an apple in his left hand said, “Mom, have this one! It is much bigger and ________.” Sally couldn’t say anything. It seemed that she made a wrong judgement (判断) about a small child. Her smile came back after she knew why her son had a bite of each apple ________.

Never judge anything or anyone too quickly. ________ spare some more time to understand things better.

Which color do you think will be popular in the future?

Some people think black will be popular.     31     And men often show off their social positions (社会地位) by using this color. It’s also a kind of popular color in the past.

Other people think yellow will be popular.     32     Because people are very busy these days and they have a lot of things to do. Yellow is a soft color and it can make people feel relaxed.

Blue will be another popular color because blue means peace and kindness.     33     Blue will make people remember to keep the world peaceful.

Most people think green will be popular because they think green is the color of nature and health.     34     When people wear green clothes, they will keep the environment in their hearts and try to make the environment better. When everyone keeps optimistic, Omicron (奥密克戎) will be less dangerous for people.

    35     However, each color is placed with good wishes for a better life.

Now cities are full of cars. Some families even have two or more cars. Parking (停车) is a serious problem, and it causes the traffic around the cities. Something will have to be done to change them. What will the cars of tomorrow be like?

Little cars may some day take the place of today’s big cars. If everyone drives little cars in the future, there will be less air pollution. There will be more space for parking cars in cities, and the streets will be less crowded. Three little cars can park in the space now needed for a car of the usual size. The little cars will cost less to own and to drive. Driving will be safer, too. What’s more, these little cars can go about 65 kilometers an hour.

Little cars in the future will be fine for getting around a city, but they will not be suitable for long trips. If big cars are still used along with the small ones, two sets of roads will be needed in the future. Some roads will be used for the big and fast cars, and other roads will be needed for the small ones.
