- Health is money. - But I think it is money. A. as important as B. more important thanC. so ——青夏教育精英家教网—

　　Is there anything more important than health? I don't think so．“Health is the greatest wealth(财富),” wise people say．You can't be good at your studies or work well when you are ill．

　　If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure(血压), I think you should go to the doctor．

　　The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed．

　　After that, he will advise some treatment, or some medicine．The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice．

　　Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can't help telling you a funny story．

　　An old gentleman came to see the doctor．The man was very ill．He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs．The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease．

　　He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest．He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks．In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule：“Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is．” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn't smoke more than one cigarette a day．

　　A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office．He looked much more cheerful and much happier．He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man．

　　“But you know, doctor,” the man went on saying, “it's not easy to begin smoking at my age．”

(阅读理解)

I always thought that money was the most valuable possession in the world. If there was no money, there would be many things I could not have. For example, delicious food, beautiful clothes, a big house and so on. I would be unhappy. But now I have changed my mind. I think the most important thing is health. Why? Let me tell you a true story. On the 21st of May, 2003, my younger brother got a terrible disease. At first, my parents didn't worry too much about it. We just went to see a doctor. The doctor gave my brother some medicine which he took on time every day. But after three days, my brother got worse. His whole body was swollen (肿) and he was in a lot of pain. My parents quietly took him to the hospital where the doctor said he must stay. Many doctors came to see my brother. After examining him, the doctors said that my brother had caught a disease called measles(麻疹). We were all so worried and nervous. The doctors quickly gave my brother an injection. Soon after my brother was made to take more medicine. He stayed in hospital for three days. During the three days, he was given injections and medicine to take every day. Everyone in my family was so worried about my brother, including me. We all hoped that my brother would be better soon. Then we would live a happy life as before. From that day on, I began to realize I was wrong about money being the most valuable possession in the world. If a person who has a lot of money is dying can money make him better? Of course the answer is no. Good health is everyone's most valuable possession. We should take good care of ourselves and try our best to keep us away from disease. Please remember: Good health is our most valuable possession.
