1 . The junior high school graduates have to take a P.E. test in many places around China. The full marks are usually 50 points and it means much in the senior high school entrance exam.
In Tianshui, the test is often in May and June. Students have the test in schools. Each student is tested on four sports. They take part in long-distance running, rope skipping and football dribbling(运球) and so on. Thepull-upis for boys and girls can choose the sit-up. Both boys and girls must run in the test.
Most students find the test easy and more than 90% of them can get high marks. That’s because they have been training for it during the three whole years. Students in Junior Three usually do lots of practice in P.E. classes. The training makes the test easier than it seems to be.
Running is one of the sports in a test. So in P. E. classes, they usually run a lot. Sometimes they have to run 1,500 meters in one class. Most teachers and parents welcome the P.E. test. They say it helps students build up their health.

“You have no flying skills at all!” he said to the swans. “All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air? No, that’s beyond you. Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what real flying is!”
One of the swans, a strong young male, took up the challenge (挑战). The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, performed other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.
Now it was the swan’s turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments (评价) about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn’t see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to struggle to keep himself from falling into the water.
The swan pretended (假装) not to notice, and said, “Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another trick? “
“No,” said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition. “I’m in trouble because of my pride (自大) ! If you don’t help me, I’ll lose my life...”
The swan took pity on him, and took him on his shoulders and flew back to the beach.
