Paul and I, loved basketball and were huge fans of the NBA, were on our school basketball team, The Lions. When we weren't playing on the court, we (watch) a game on TV. My favourite player was LeBron James, and Paul's favourite player was Tyrone, although we (actual) agree that they are champions.

Bogues was only 1.6 metres tall, which made him the (short) player ever in the NBA. By coincidence, Paul was only 1.6 metres tall, too! Paul knew that (be) shorter than other players meant that he had to practise more. During all those hours of doing jump shots on his own, he used Bogues as his (inspire). Paul believed that if Bogues could make it, he would do it as well, but our coach was not so sure. Paul tried many times just for making the team. He was usually on the bench, being just a (replace), which was really tough on him. he had real skills, worked really hard and had a strong desire (play) for the team, Paul didn't get a chance. He had to wait for it.

What will most help you lead a long happy and healthy life? Is it making lots of money? Is it a great job that you enjoy? Perhaps it's fame. If you ask a young person, many are likely to give you one of those answers. Or possibly all three.

Some cultures put more importance on work and money than others. Americans canbe obsessed withtheir jobs and making money. They might feel the need to make lots of money for education, medical care, homes and cars. But it's not just about the money. For many Americans, selfworth is linked to our professional success or failure.

We could learn about what makes people happy, and what does not, by studying people over the course of their lives. For almost 80 years, Harvard Medical School researchers have been doing just that. The Harvard Study of Adult Development is one of the most comprehensive studies in history. Since 1938, Henry, one of its professor has followed the lives of a group of men from their teen years to old age. Later, he began to follow their wives and children as well. The study finds that wealth, social position and an important job title do not necessarily lead to health and happiness.

Robert Waldinger is the current director of the study. He is a professor at Harvard Medical School. Waldinger shared some of the findings with a Harvard Gazette reporter. He said, "The surprising finding is that our relationships and how happy we are in our relationships has a powerful influence on our health." He added, "Taking care of your body is important, but tending to your relationships is a form of selfcare too."

Exercise is good for us. It reduces the risks of dying from all causes, including cancer and heart disease. But many people who work all week have little time for exercise. So, they might try to do something to increase their heart rates over the weekend—go for a long run, take a bike ride or hike in the mountains. But is it healthy to avoid exercise during the workweek and then try to fit it all in during the weekend?

A new study suggests that, yes, it is healthy. Australian researchers at the University of Sydney did the study. It took place over a nineyear period. During that time, the researchers looked at the selfreported exercise habits and health examinations of more than 63,000 adults in England and Scotland. Then they connected that information to death records.

The researchers found that people who exercised only one or two days a week improved their chances of living longer than people who did not exercise at all. Even those who are fat could extend their lives by exercising a couple of days per week.

Emmanuel Stamatakis is the senior author of the study. He says that he found it very encouraging that even people who exercised as little as one or two times a week appear to lower their risk of early death. In other words, their health improves even if they don't meet the suggested weekly amount of physical activity. However, to be in the best health, Stamatakis says more exercise is better.

The WHO suggests that adults should get at least 150 minutes of moderate to intense activity per week. For the best results, the organisation suggests 75 minutes per week of intense physical activity. However, if you are busy with work and family duties, exercise as much as you can.

Before you were my teacher, I thought that teaching was the last thing I wanted to do. Why would someone want to come in every day and attempt to instruct students, many of whom couldn't care less, or to get paid very little compared with the work he or she put in?

You may have thought that the only thing I was learning from you was the course, but that's not all I learned. From reference books to funny jokes, you made each class exciting. You always tried to make class charming so that we could be excited about learning. However, those days have gone by.

Whenever I was confused and needed extra help, you were the exact one to turn to. I would walk into your room for help and there would be several kids. You ran from one student to the next helping each one through their confusion. You could have gone back home after the bell rang. Instead, you chose to stay and care about what your students did.

You didn't only care about my learning, but you also cared about other things I was involved in. At the beginning of the year, we wrote down our hobbies and interests. You remembered what we wrote, too. I had missed class for track meets (田径运动会) and when I came back the next day, you would ask me how it went. Many of the teachers never bothered to ask what I liked to do.

These things showed me the value of teaching. They showed me how much of an influence a teacher can have on a student. I want to be the one that influences students and pushes them towards success. I want students to leave my classroom thinking that their time was worthwhile (值得的). I want to be the inspiration for them that you were for me. Whenever it gets hard for me to continue on this path, I'll remember you and what you did for me.

After Steve Jobs died, his friend Larry Ellison said something like this. "There will never be another Steve Jobs." Larry wrote this list of Steve's life lessons to remind us all.

⒈Love what you do.

Sure Steve became a billionaire when he brought Apple back. Apple was his calling－even after he got fired from the company. We all have bad jobs at one point in our lives. But the question is: Am I in the right job? Have I found the right company? Life doesn't go on forever.

⒉Don't do it all by yourself.

Steve learned a great leader can't do it all by himself. He needs people. They must be talented. They must be given the opportunity to succeed and fail. In short, we have to learn to be a great leader if we want to see our great ideas and hard work truly have an influence on the world.

⒊

Apple was always the best at creating a new product that meets the exact needs of users. It's empathy (同感) that helps Apple achieve this. Whenever the user has the first touch with a new Apple product, he says "Wow, it's just what I need." Remember: You're King in the business world if you know exactly what consumers desire.

⒋Don't mess around with your health.

That's the most important lesson from Steve's life. It's great to learn from him but, the fact is that he should still be here if he had treated his cancer properly. Instead, Steve chose a naturopathic (自然疗法) solution that wasn't effective. When he finally decided to take his doctor's original advice, it was too late.

A. They must be inspired.

B. Be the best in your field.

C. Take your health seriously.

D. Get on our right path now.

E. Will this lead to a successful career?

F. Put yourself in the other person's shoes.

G. What are the key things that we could learn from him?
