Are you carrying too much on your back at school? You’re not alone. Back experts in the United States are worried that young students are having back and neck problems as a result of carrying too much in their backpacks (schoolbags).
“It hurts my back when I run,” said Oberlin Reyes, a student in Virginia. “It’s hard to get up the stairs with my backpack, because it’s too heavy.”
Oberlin is among students whose backpacks were weighed for a week in a recent study.
They had regular backpacks with two straps (带子) to carry them, but a number of students with heavy loads（负荷）had switched to rolling backpacks ，which have wheels（轮子） and can roll on the ground.
Shirley Park, whose backpack weighed 10 kilograms, said she changed to a rolling backpack because she was starting to have back pain.
How much is too much? Experts say students should carry no more than 10 to 15 percent（%） of their own body weight.
A few students had one suggestion to lighten the load: less homework. P.S. (附) Doctor’s suggestions:
① Lighten the load. Clean out binders (活页材料) and take home only the books you need that night.
② Wide straps are better. They send out the weight over your shoulders more evenly (均匀). And be sure to wear both straps rather than hanging the pack over one shoulder.
③ Pack smart. The heavier things should be packed closed to the back.
④ Bend both knees when you pick up the pack, and don’t just bend over at the waist (腰).
61. “_____” is the main idea of the text.
A. The problem of backpacks is worth studying B. The problem made by heavy backpacks C. What is the best backpack for a student D. How to make students’ backpacks light 62. According to Oberlin Reyes and Shirley Park, we can guess ______.
A. students have to do much homework B. students like different kinds of backpacks C. backpacks without wheels are bad for students D. too much homework leaves students no free time
63. The expression “switched to” in the text perhaps means ______. A. given up B. started to use C. caught up D. used for
64. According to the passage, it’s better for a student of 40 kilograms to carry a backpack of _____ at most by the words
of experts.
A. 6 kg B. 7 kg C. 8 kg D. 10 kg 65. If students follow the doctor’s suggestions they ______.
A. may take off their backpacks B. can learn how to help themselves C. may feel their backpacks are lighter D. will know how to wear backpacks

When I was a little girl, something terrible happened to me. Fifteen months after I was born , I had a bad fall. I landed on a glass rabbit and it cut my eye badly enough to blind it.

Not all people were friendly to me. Some asked uncomfortable questions about my eye or even played jokes on me. When the kids played games, I was always the “bad guy”. I grew up imagining (想象) that everyone looked down on me.
Yet every time Mum noticed I was unhappy, she would say to me, “The world inside you is always colourful. Hold your head up high and face the world.” It helped me move on in life.

I learned not only to appreciate (欣赏) myself but to have love for others.

Take a trip up a hill on a windy day. What is flying high in the sky? It isn’t a bird or a plane. It is a kite!
Kids and adults like flying kites. Long ago, the first kites were made by Chinese people. Then, people around the world began flying kites.
One story tells a man’s hat got lifted off by wind. He had fun chasing his hat, so he did it again! His hat became the first kite. Other stories tell that people liked watching leaves on windy days. They tied leaves to strings and watched them fly.
Long ago, kites became important in keeping China protected. A man might be lifted up by a kite while he spied(监视) on an enemy. He could use the kite to fly high like a plane. He could also fight from the air!
Kites come in many shapes, sizes, and styles. They are usually made of cloth or paper. A kite might be shaped like a bird, a fish, or just a box. Kites are also painted with colors.
You can use a kite to catch fish. First you tie a fishing line to a kite. Then you put bait(鱼饵) on the line. You watch the kite with hopes as it flies over the water. When you pull the kite down, you might find a fish on your line! Some people think this is more fun than using a fishing pole(杆).
Many countries have special days to honor kites. People make, sell and fly many types of kites. There are several kite festivals in China. The Beijing International Kite Festival is usually held in April every year. People spend all days flying kites. You might see famous fighter kites. People fly these kites quite fast and try to cut other flyer’s lines.
There is much to learn about kites. From long ago in China until now, kites have had many uses. They have been used for spying, fighting, and fishing. But the best way to use a kite is to fly it high for fun!
