Nick is a 14-year-old school boy. His life is full of exams and studies on weekdays. He has little free time. He thinks playing computer games is the best way to make him relax. When he has free time, he sits in front of the computer. Just like that way, he neither eats nor drinks for several hours.

Last weekend, he played games on the computer again. He was too excited and didn't want to move. He didn't have anything for six hours. When he had to go to the bathroom, he found he could not move. He was taken to the hospital. The doctor told him he should do some more different kinds of activities. In other words, he needs more exercise and outdoor activities to make him have a healthy body.

Dear Alice,

    I just received your letter. And I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model （模特）.

    Being a model for a living is not easy. In fact, a famous person like me has a lot of problems that you couldn't see. I can't eat what I like, even though I'm very hungry. Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model.

    Besides, I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun, in a swimming suit in the cold air. And practicing walking nicely every day is tiring for me.

    You might say I made much money from modeling. Bus my dear niece （侄女）, you have to know that money is, nothing, knowledge is everything. School is important and everyone should go to school for a certain period of time. The longer they stay at school, the better they will be. Very often, I hope I can give up my job and continue my studies at school. But it is very difficult for me to go back to school again. I am too old to go back to school now.

    You are a pretty young girl with a bright future. You only have one year to finish your studies in high school. A year is really short. Please do consider my words carefully before you decide. Of course, there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness.

    Love,

    Emma

    D．she has done a good job and makes a lot of money as a model

3．How long does Alice still have to study in high school?

    A．One year.                                       B．Two years.

    C．Three years.                                    D．The longer, the better.

Dear Ben,

     Earth Day is coming in a week． Are you doing anything for Earth Day this year? I think it's a realty good idea．It shows people how they can help the environment．Last year you planted some trees near Oxford, didn't you?

     This year we are all going to the Sepulveda Dam Recreation Area to do pickup． That means collecting all the rubbish that people drop, like coke cans and sweet wrappers and other things like that．We start at 8 am and then pick up litter until about 1 pm．Then we have a huge picnic．It'll be great．We all take food and there are places to cook burgers and hot dogs and other things．

There will be lots of stalls selling organic, healthy food in the open air, too! Then we'll do pickup again until about 3 pm．We' II have to be very careful to tidy up well after the picnic!

There are lots of events around Los Angeles．My friend Jake is going to do pickup on a big beach near his home with the neighbours．My friend Beth is going on the big march in Los Angeles．I' d rather do something that makes an actual difference that you can see．Well, as we are getting rid of the rubbish, I suppose I should say a difference you can' t see!
