When I was 18 years old, one morning, my father told me to drive him into a town, about 40 miles away. I had just learned to 36 ，so I agreed with pleasure.

Hi Grace,

How's it going? Sorry I haven't emailed for a while, but I had so much to do!

I had told you about my decision to take up a sport. I knew I wasn't fit and I wanted to get some exercise. But that wasn't the only reason that I decided to do a sport. Students who play sports do better at school. 1.. Exercise also helps learning and memory (记忆).

2. First, I tried soccer. I had played a bit of soccer before and I thought it wouldn't be too bad. I knew I couldn't last for very long without feeling tired. On the first day, I was able to run for the first ten minutes, but then I was so tired that I couldn't even kick the ball!

Then, I tried volleyball. 3.I was able to run for the first twenty minutes and I wasn't the slowest runner in the team! After a few weeks .I could run faster and longer. I was doing better and feeling better.4.. Maybe I'm not a team sport person after all!

Finally, I tried kung fu (功夫). It's a great sport that exercises the body and the mind. You learn to follow instructions carefully and do what you are asked to do. This is the fight sport for me! 5. I feel so confident that l even showed some moves to the class last week! Can you believe it?

I hope you're OK! Write and let me know what you've been doing!

Bye for now!

Kristie

If you go to London, you will see a lot of buses and cars on the road.You will also see lots of bikes because more and more people travel by bike.There are a lot of reasons for this.First, it's not expensive to buy a bike and it is quick, too.You often have to wait for a bus for half an hour.After you get on the bus, there are so many other buses and cars on the road that the bus moves very slowly.The underground train is quick but often crowded.

I traveled to work by bus for about four years.I often arrived at work late and tired.Then one day, about two years ago, a friend of mine said, “I go to work by bike every day.Please come and join me.” “But my bike is old, and there are so many buses and cars on the road.I'll feel frightened，” I answered.“You needn't feel afraid.If you follow me and we ride slowly, you will be fine，” he said.

The next day I bought a new bike.Although we went slowly, we arrived at work soon.It took 40 minutes to go by bus, but only half an hour by bike.

Now I love riding a bike to work.I arrive at work quickly and I've saved a little money, and more importantly, I feel healthy.Many people think my idea is good and maybe you will see more bikes on the road in the future.

Not long ago, I opened an interesting e-mail from Jennifer, a friend of mine. “I’ve realized I want to be around people who make me happy,” she wrote, “I’ve been seeing how I feel after communicating with different people and making a mental list of who I feel good about. And you’re on my list.”

Then she invited me — and 11 other women— to a “Movie Night” to be held every six weeks at her house. We’d chat, eat, and watch feel-good movies. She made it clear in her invitation that there was no stress to show up to all or any movie nights. Wonderful! I e-mailed her back immediately. I was in.

Later, Jennifer told me she had some puzzled reactions to her invitation. Though all the women were willing to join, some said they didn’t see themselves as cheerful people. “I’ve told them they didn’t have to be cheerful around me all the time. I invited them because they made me feel happy,” she says.

Research shows that gatherings such as Jennifer’s make sense. In a US study, researchers measured(测量) the happiness of 4739 people at regular intervals (间隔) over 20 years. The study found that a person’s happiness depends on(取决于) the happiness of people they connect with. Amazingly, it also found that happiness spreads not only between direct friends, but also among friends of your friends’ friends! And those good feelings seem to be the most contagious (传染性的) among friends of the same sex.

“People with more supportive friends are less likely to develop sadness,” says Dr Toupey Luft, a psychologist in Penticyon, British Columbia. “Though you can’t choose your family or workmates, you do have control over friendships.” With a little effort, you can add more positive(乐观的) relationships to your social circle. Here’s how…

1.How many people did Jennifer invite?

A. 1 B. 11 C. 12 D. 13

2.What kind of things can you do on Jennifer’s movie night?

5.Can you guess what will be talked about in the following passage?

A. Why it is important to pick friends who make you feel good.

C. What kinds of friends you should not make.
