As their bodies flow from one exercise to the next, their minds are focused only on their deep, relaxed breathing.
Tai chi is part of national cultural heritage (遗产) which Chinese people take pride in. This ancient mind-body exercise is known as tai chi, and you don’t have to live in China to benefit from it. According to a survey in 2007, more than 2 million Americans are currently practicing tai chi.
Tai chi is called a mind-body type of exercise because it combines meditation, focused breathing, and physical movement. Because it’s also a low-impact (低强度的) exercise, it may be particularly suitable for older adults, but it’s a beneficial exercise for people of all ages.
Tai chi developed in China as a type of martial art. Today tai chi is used to develop fitness, meditation, balance, breathing, and well-being.
If tai chi is something you might like to try, look for a tai chi class near you. Keep in mind that training programs are different in many ways. You might want to ask around for a recommendation or try a class before you sign up. Ask potential tai chi instructors about their training and experience.
Tai chi is generally considered a low-risk exercise that is both safe and enjoyable. If you have any physical or medical problems, talk with your health care provider before starting any exercise program. And remember, although tai chi has many benefits, it can’t take the place of regular medical care.

Good study habits are important for all students. When you have good study habits, you will learn faster and help you have a good memory.
Do you usually study in the living room? This is not a good place for study because it is usually too noisy. You need to study in a quiet place, such as your bedroom. A quiet place will help you learn well.
Before you begin to study, do not forget to clean your desk. It helps you study well, too. Light is important. You will feel tired easily if there is not enough light.
Of all the good study habits developing, asking questions is the key. Just ask. No one knows everything but we can always learn from each other by asking questions.
One simple but important habit is to tell yourself what you are studying for. Put your dream grades on your desk or your computer. It means you will see and think about it every day.
When do you work best? Are you an early bird or a night owl(猫头鹰), or something in between? Find your most productive work time and then plan to study at this time.

【推荐3】By 2050, the world will be urbanized(都市化的). Nearly 70% of the world’s population will live in cities. Many of them will develop into large cities with a population of more than 10 million. Moving people around each large city will be a very big challenge. The traffic speed in London will fall to about 7 miles per hour. Around the same speed it was 150 years ago, in the days of the horse and cart.
But city planners are working on ways to solve the problem.
 Self-driving Cars  Robot Taxis | Self-driving cars or robot taxis will play a part. It’s predicted(预测) there’ll already be more than 30 million self-driving cars on the road by 2040. People don’t need to drive by themselves. By 2050, there will be robot taxis in the city streets. We can call the taxis just at a single touch. |
 Buses | Pubtie transport(交通工具) like buses will be highly personalixed(个性化). People don’t need to look through the bus timetable. Buses will be connected on the Internet and make the way by themselves according to where the people need to go. |
 Bikes | Bikes will be helpful on that slow last mile of travel, too. Cities could build special roads for them high above city streets. Xiamen in southeast China already has an 8-kilometer bicycle way to protect riders like that. That may be another kind of urban transport in 2050. It will be multi-level(多层次). |
For many people, urban transport in 2050 might be cool.
1. Most of people will live ________ by 2050.| A．in big cities | B．in small cities | C．in London | D．in villages |

| A．The traffic speed in London will be slow because of the large population. |
| B．There will be robot taxis in the city streets by 2040. |
| C．Buses can make the way by themselves. |
| D．Roads for bikes will be high above city streets. |

【推荐1】Mrs. Li is over seventy years old, and has lived in Yancheng all her life. Jenny, a reporter, asked her a few questions.
Q1: Tell me about your parents, brothers and sisters.
My parents, my sister and three brothers lived in a tiny house with a toilet we shared with our neighbours. There was no electricity. The house was lit by candles. We weren't very rich, but we were happy. My sister was the oldest child and she left school when she was only twelve to help my mother at home.
Families have changed a lot since I was young. They were much bigger in those days. Today most people only have one child!
Q2: Did your parents have jobs?
My father was a postman, and he often worked twelve hours a day. My mum was a teacher before she met my father. But looking after us was a full-time job, so she stayed at home. Today the position of women has changed. It's usual for married women to go out to work, but it was less common in the past. My father had the same job the whole of his working life. These days people change their jobs much more often.
Q3:
Well, I remember the family meals, three times a day. My mother was always cooking for us. The food was always freshly cooked, with lots of fish—my grandfather was a fisherman, and my mother never bought ready-made food as people do today, so it was much better for us. And we didn't have television, so we played games together a lot after supper. Our life is better now. One day I'll be talking to my grandchildren.
