Your body is special﹣no two people in the world are alike． Although you are different from everyone else， you have exactly the same body parts as the people around you， doing different jobs that keep all of us alive．
What is inside my head？
Your head houses the most valuable part of your body﹣your brain． As you are reading， your eyes send pictures to your brain which makes meaning from what you see． Your brain helps you to remember and think， and make sure your body is doing what it should．
What is my skin for？
Your skin covers your body． In most parts of your body， the skin is just as thick as half a centimeter． If you have your skin cut， it will have a quick cure and stop viruses（病毒）from entering your body． Your skin also helps you feel the heat and coldness of the environment around you． Hair grows from inside the skin． When you feel hot， extra heat comes out through your skin． As a result， your body temperature drops．
How do I move？
Muscles（肌肉）are found in most parts of your body． They work with your bones to help you a lot﹣whenever you cry or smile， eat or speak， walk or dance， etc．
Why do I breathe？
Your body needs to take in oxygen from the air and give out the unwanted carbon dioxide in the body． When you breathe， air comes through your nose and mouth into your lungs where oxygen flows to different parts of your body．
What does my heart do？
Your heart is a very special muscle． It is slightly bigger than your fist（拳头）and grows bigger as you do． If you place your hand on your heart， you will feel your heart beating which forces blood to move around your body．

A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms（习语）, though my teacher told us the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.
One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be surprised. Gently shaking his head，shrugging his shoulders, he said，“You don’t say!” “You don’t say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not a right topic. “Well, I’d better change the topic.” So I said to him. “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was wonderful.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted（打断）again by his words: “You don’t say!” I couldn’t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didn’t ask you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn’t you say ‘you don’t say’?” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “ ‘You don’t say’ actually means ‘really!’ It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don’t pay attention to English idioms.” I realized I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions.

I’m Alfred. I was born with a problem in my backbone and mobility(行走能力）was a big challenge, but thanks to my teachers and friends, my school life was excellent.
My friends and I used to sit together and have lots of fun. Whenever we got a free period, we used to start shouting or play games. I would take part in all competitions, such as poetry writing, story writing and painting and all activities like Teachers’ Day or anybody’s birthday and had much fun.
My English teacher was very tall. The moment she would enter the class, we would all sit quiet and open the books. She would encourage me by giving me important assignments and also morning news to read during the assembly. She would come down and hear my English debate(辩论), which made me participate in all debate competitions.
The same was true of my biology and science teacher. She was very nice and sweet. She would always give me extra information on the biology project. I could not go to the lab for the practicals (lessons or exams in science, cooking etc. in which you have to do or make something yourself rather than write or read about it), so she would bring the lab down and help me with the biology and science practicals and would give me excellent marks.
My friends made me monitor and the naughty boys listen to me. My friends used to help me with my notes if I was absent. My teachers always gave me important project work and I felt proud when they patted me on the back after I finished it quickly and correctly.
I was never shouted at or made fun of or scolded(批评) by any of my friends and teachers. Today I saw the terrible punishments given to students on television news. I felt very sad.
I really want to express my love and thanks to all my wonderful teachers and friends, without whom my school life would not have been so excellent and unforgettable. I really pray to God that each child in the world is blessed with caring teachers and wants to attend school every day.Alfred’s problem in his backbone _________ .

James Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves(奴隶). His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9. There, a school teacher asked the youth his name.
“J.C.,” he replied.
She thought he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name.
Owens ran his first race at the age of 13. After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part time in order to pay for his education. As a second year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.
A week before the Big Ten games, Owens fell down when he went downstairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he was helped in and out of the car that drove him to the games. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he should give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.
The stage was set for Owens’ success at the Olympic Games in Berlin(柏林) the next year, and his success would come to be considered as not only athletic but also political(政治的). Hitler(希特勒) did not give congratulations to any of the black American winners.
“It was all right with me,” he said years later. “I didn’t go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”
After returning from Berlin, he received no telephone calls from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.
Owens’ Olympic success made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and racing against cars and dogs.
“Sure, it worried me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”
In the end, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept me alive over the years,” he once said. “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard.”In the Big Ten games, Owens .
| A．hurt himself in the back |
| B．was successful in setting many records |
| C．tried every sports event but all failed |
| D．had to give up all events |
We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because .
| A．he was the grandsonof black slaves |
| B．he was the son of a poor farmer |
| C．he didn’t shake hands with Hitler |
| D．he didn’t talk to the US president on the phone |
When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years”, he means that the medals .
| A．have been changed for money to help him live on |
| B．have made him famous in the US |
| C．have encouraged him to face difficulties in life |
| D．have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs |
What can be the best title for the text?
| A．Jesse Owens — A Great American Sportsman | B．The Big Ten Games |
| C．Making a Living As a Sportsman | D．How to Be a Successful |
