22、We all know that exercise is good for your health. But some kinds of exercise may be better than others. Running, for example, may help to protect against heart disease and other health problems. Running may also help you live longer.

Recently, researchers studied more than 55,000 adults. About a quarter of the adults have a good habit of running. The study found these runners were much healthier than non-runners. In fact, the runners lived, on average, three years longer than the non-runners.

Running may be good exercise, but it can be difficult on the body. Here are commonly shared ideas among fitness experts to lower the risk of injury for people who are new to running.

Take it easy.

Do not run too much, too soon or too fast. Most people get running injuries when they push themselves too hard. The body needs time to get used to increases in distance or speed.

Get good running shoes.

There is no single best shoe for every runner. You should find the shoe that offers the best fit and support for your feet. More importantly, you should have a new pair of shoes every 500 to 800 kilometers.

Take good notes.

Take time after each run to write down notes about what you did and how you felt. Look for things that happen again and again. For example, you may find that your knees hurt when you run sometimes. But perhaps you feel great when you have a rest between running days. These notes will help you make the best plan for running.

23、   My father woke me up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and said," Get up. You're going with me to cut the grass in the garden."

The idea that my father thought I was old enough to help him in his business(生意) made me feel proud and excited. From sunrise to sunset, my father, my younger brother and I worked in the large garden, in a rich part of Atlanta, Georgia. By the end of the day I was too tired to say a word but I felt good. This was my first time to help my father in his business. I got for my work that day.

One day, my father found some leaves I had missed and pulled me aside. "Take away these leaves!" said seriously, "and don't make me have to tell you to do it again." The message was clear. Today I value it, which my father gave to me that day. It will always be helpful to impress (给……留下印象)the person you are working for.

After two years, I left home and went to another town to start my new life .Luckily for me, I quickly found a job to wash dishes in a restaurant. Every morning, I set off early, always with the same strong wish I got long long ago. I felt like I was old enough to be independent and make a living by myself.

In fact, washing dishes was not exciting, but that didn't matter. It taught me that any job was a good job and whatever I got from the job was more than had before. I could learn something meaningful from every job and it better and better .One day, a newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live with hard work and low pay. "If you only think about hard work and money,   ▲ ”, I answered.

24、   Classic books never go out of fashion. The book The Outsiders first came out in 1967. Although the book is old, it is still worth reading. It is written by US writer S.E.Hinton.

The book tells the story of a 14-year-old boy called Ponyboy Curtis. He struggles with difficult issues of right and wrong in a society where he is an outsider. The story took place in Oklahoma, US, in 1965.

In the book, the children are divided into two groups. One includes Curtis and Greasers. It is mostly made up of poor kids. They have longer hair and often smoke at a young age. The other group is called the Socs, which is made up of rich children. They wear expensive clothes and drive high-tech cars. Those two groups do not get along well. The book only shows us two weeks of the boys' life.

I was touched by the friendship among the boys. When any of them has a problem, the others will help. Although they are not well educated(教育), they are kind and brave. For example, when Johnny was hurt and in hospital, his friends visited him almost every day. They brought him food and told him interesting stories. I always dream of having a strong friendship like this.

This book shows the good personalities(品质) in those ordinary people. I advise that teenagers read this book and I hope they can enjoy it.
