The flu easily spreads from one person to another. If you are weak, you probably catch the flu easily. Do you know how you can avoid the flu? Here are four suggestions:
First, you can eat everything you want but make sure that your diet is healthy. The healthier you are, the better it is for you to avoid (避免) any type of illness around. Most doctors suggest drinking lots of fresh fruit juice and water is helpful to avoid the flu.
Second, if a member of a family or a friend has the flu, stay away from him or her until he or she is well. The flu is very communicable (可传染的). If you stay with the person with the flu, you can catch the flu easily. Wear a mask (口罩) and avoid using things that the person with the flu used.
Third, exercising will make you stronger, which means a stronger immune system (免疫系统), too. Exercise often so that your body will keep healthy. It doesn’t matter what kind of exercise it is.
Finally, happy people are healthy people. Their life isn't stressed out, so they may be safe from illness. If you are unhappy, you will easily get sick.
Follow the suggestions above and you can avoid the flu easily.

We do eye exercises. We wear sunglasses. We do a lot of things to protect(保护) our eyes. But we usually forget another important part of our body—the ears.
Ears help us hear the world. But many things, such as loud noise, can cause hearing loss(听力丧失). Once this happens, it’s hard to get your hearing back. March 3 is Ear Care Day. It reminds us to take good care of our ears. So how can we protect our ears? Let’s take a look together.
Keep your ears dry and warm
Dry your ears with a towel(毛巾) after swimming or taking a bath. If you feel water in your ear, shake your head a little bit. This can help you get the water out of your ear.
Also, when the sun is shining, wear some sunscreen(防晒霜) on your ears. During the winter, protect your ears with a hat or a scarf.
How to clean your ears
Usually, our ears can clean themselves. The earwax(耳屎) builds up, dries out, and then comes out of the ear along with some dirt(污垢).
So don’t clean your ears with anything sharp(尖锐的). Sharp objects can make the earwax go too deep into your ears and hurt them. But if the earwax is making you feel bad, you can ask a doctor for help.
How to use headphones
Don’t listen to loud music on your headphones for a long time. Follow the 60:60 rule: listen to music at 60 percent of your headphones’ maximum volume(最大音量) for no more than 60 minutes a day.
Over the-ear(头戴式) headphones are better than in-ear(入耳式) ones. They do a better job of stopping outside noise, so you can listen at a lower volume.

Sometimes, we see some people reading books while biting their nails (指甲). We may think it is a kind of behavior that means they are focused (专心的). But in fact, it is more than that and science has proved it.
Nail biting can begin at an early age. According to the BBC, up to 45 percent of teenagers bite their nails.
There is not an exact answer to explain why people bite their nails. But most commonly, nail biting is said to be a nervous habit. It is done because of stress, boredom or excitement.
What’s more, scientists found that people with higher levels of intelligence (智力) are the ones who start biting their nails at an early age. They believe that compared with the average person, those with higher levels of intelligence may feel higher levels of stress more easily.
This habit is bad for the biters. It can give them red or sore fingertips. And long-term nail biting can affect (影响) how our nails grow.
But don’t worry! There are many ways to stop biting your nails. First, keep your nails clean. The more you focus on (集中于) taking care of your nails, the less likely you are to start biting them again. Also, when you feel stressed, try to relax. Doing exercise or having a warm bath both help.

Zoology is everything about animals. And people who study it are called zoologists. They want to learn about the difference between different kinds of animals, where they come from, and how they live.
What do zoologists do?
There are many different kinds of zoologists. Some try to learn everything about one animal, and some learn about a group of animals, some try to understand where new kinds of animals come from and other zoologists are interested in how animals can get sick. Many zoologists study what animals do when they are with other animals.
A famous zoologist
Charles Darwin is probably the most famous zoologist. He showed that animals are all one big family and that every kind of animal changes slowly to match the place where they live. This is called “evolution（进化）”. During his life, people laughed at Darwin, saying that people and animals couldn’t come from the same family. However, many zoologists today agree that Darwin was right.
Why is it important?
Understanding animals is important because people are animals. When we study animals, we learn about ourselves.
Do you know?
•Frogs can breathe（呼吸）without their mouths! When frogs are not in water, their bodies can take air through their skin.
•Some people say sharks never get sick, but that is not true. Sharks get sick, just like any other animal.

It’s not easy being a teenager and it is not easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing(意识到) it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while letting him know that you’ll always be there for him when he needs you. So here’s some advice for you.
First, expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Second, keep everything else open to discussion(讨论) but not for health and safety problems like drug use and careless driving. Third, if your child is unwilling to talk about something, don’t ask him to tell you what’s on his mind. Instead, let him try to solve(解决) things by himself. At the same time, tell him that you’re always there for him to ask for advice or help. Fourth, show respect for your teenager’s privacy(隐私). Never read his mails or listen to his personal talks.
What’s more, always ask your child to follow the family rules. For example, teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for 15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least 15 minutes. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and get calls, but teaches your teenager moderation (节制). Or you can allow your teenager to have his own phone, but he can pay for it with his own pocket money or a part-time job.

If you think you are too shy and want to be a little bit braver, just try the following things:
Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.
Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too; and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.
Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become relaxed and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.
Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi!” or smile at someone, say to yourself “You can make it.” Keep trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others.

Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends on ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future—for example, getting into college or getting a good job—that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasure, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.

【推荐3】Today I will tell you something important during your reading. You shouldn’t mark a book which isn’t yours. People who lend you books expect you to keep them clean. If you think it useful to mark books, you will have to buy them.
There are two ways in which one can own a book. The first is to get the book by paying for it, just as you pay for clothes and furniture. But full ownership comes only when you have made it a part of yourself. The best way to make it a part of yourself is by writing in it.
There are three kinds of book owners. The first has all the best sellers—unread and untouched. The second has many books. But most of them are as clean as the day they were bought. The third has a few dog-eared (翻折的) books, which are marked from front to back.
Why is marking a book necessary? First, it keeps you awake. In the second place, reading is thinking. And thinking can express itself in words, spoken or written. The marked book is usually the thought-through book. Finally, writing helps you remember the thoughts you had, or the thoughts the writer expressed.
If reading is to learn anything more than passing time, it must be active. The book you read for pleasure can be read in a state of relaxation, and nothing is lost. But for a great book, rich in ideas, reading must be active. You can’t let your eyes move across the lines. You should come up with an understanding of what you have read.
Answer the questions according to the passage.1. What shouldn’t you do with a book which isn’t yours?
2. How many ways in which one can own a book?
3. What is the best way to make a book a part of yourself?
4. How many kinds of book owners does the writer talk about?
5. What should you do about what you have read?
