“Doctor, I’m not feeling well,” she said.“ Every time I do my homework, I feel tired.If I go to school on foot, I have to sit down and rest for ten minutes.”
The doctor looked at her carefully.At last he said, “ Nothing much.But I’m afraid you are eating too much.”
“I don’t understand, what do you mean? ”asked Sarah.“I mean you eat too much food,” said the doctor.
“Oh! You mean I’m too fat.That’s a problem.” Said Sarah.“What should I do If I don’t want to be heavy!”
“The answer is easy,” said the doctor.“ If you want to be thin and healthy, you shouldn’t eat a lot of food and you also should do much exercise.”

What was the matter with Sarah? She felt ________.
Sarah left school at eighteen,went to college and then worked at a computer company.Four years later,she got a new job as a manager in British Airways(英国航空公司).This is what she told us about her job:
“My office is at Heathrow Airport,but I spend 60%of my time in the air I teach air-hostesses(空姐) and help them with any problems.I also go to lots of meetings.
My hours are usually from 8 am to 4 pm,but sometimes I work from 1 pm to 9 pm.At work,the first thing I do is to check plane times on my computer.then I speak with some of the air-hostesses.
Sometimes I go on long flights(飞行) to check how the air-hostesses are doing.That's my favourite part of the job,but I like office work,too.Travelling can be hard work.When I get back from a long trip,all I can do is to eat something.then go to bed! I don't make much money,but I'm happy with British Airways and want to stay there and continue to travel.”
