Why should students play sports? Some people think that students play sports in order to get exercise. Others think it can help students have fun. But that is not enough. If students play sports, they can get more than healthy bodies. Why? Here are three more reasons.
Students who play sports do better in school. Some people think that doing exercise will take up students’ study time. But a recent study has shown that students who play sports get better scores in school than those who don’t. Exercise gets students to learn, remember things and concentrate better.
Students who play sports develop their teamwork spirits and learn problem-solving skills. When they are working together with others to win games and reach goals, they’re learning how to be successful in practice. And these skills will be useful to them for study or their future work.
Playing sports can also improve confidence. Students who play sports feel better about themselves. When they know they can improve and reach their goals by practicing, it builds their confidence. And sports can also help them communicate with others actively and make new friends.

When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our rules and culture. One of the rules is that young people are always s to respect elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.
In my village in China, people are p of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most
(知识) and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.
However, in the United States, (当地的) people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep t
away from growing old by
(做) exercise, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got m
because this caused them to feel they had

Great white sharks have become well known in a bad way, for being scary. . However, you are more likely to be hit by lightning than attacked by a great white shark.
One reason why people don’t like great white sharks is that they are huge. They grow to be nearly 21 feet long and can weigh up to 5,000 pounds. That is about two cars long! But the size is not typical. Most great whites are smaller, about 10 to 15 feet long. .
Great whites are called apex predators（捕食者）because they are at the top of the food chain. They have no predators and aren’t that picky about what they eat. Great whites are known to eat fish, squid, other sharks, otters, turtles, dolphins, whales, seals, and sea lions. . Great whites also eat carrion, which is the remains of dead animals floating（漂浮）in the water.
. They have 3,000 teeth, and each is up to 3 inches long! Their very sharp teeth are shaped like triangles and have rough edges that tear into things. Great whites don’t even chew their food. They just swallow it down.
.
But, like other sharks, great whites don’t intentionally（主动地）eat or attack humans. So swim without fear.
| A．That’s still longer than one car, though |
| B．Those last two kinds are their favourite food |
| C．Movies and popular stories make them scary |
| D．A big meal can satisfy a great white shark for about two months |
E. Another reason why people fear great whites is their frightening teeth

he had such a wish. He said, with his eyes full o
tears, “There is no one at home to watch me or care for me. Everyone sits around the television. If there is a
wrong with the TV, they give great attention to it and fix(修理) it at once.”
The loving teacher met the child's mother and t about this with her. The mother said,
My husband is a very busy businessman. He n has time to look after the child.” “But what about you?” the teacher asked the mother. “What do you know about me? I'm the head of the women's club. I have s
many meetings and activities.” The teacher now understood why the child f
lonely at home.
“I think children want their parents to spend m time with them.” said the teacher.
