A few months later they were again in the hospital for a follow-up and their regular consultation. I bumped into them at the restaurant attached to the hospital and I recognized that cute little face, now without the mask, having a cap covering then shaven head. He was having breakfast with his father.

I said a “Hello” and asked the “1ittle man” whether he recognized me. It was an honour that he remembered me. Our journey grew further. I spent many minutes with him and we exchanged phone number. I promised I would visit him later and carried on. He was staying in the annex (附属) to our hospital.

He started showing me the drawings and crafts he had done, for he had done quite a bit of them and had decorated his room. How many times do I fail to decorate my life? I learnt a lesson.

Jinesh and I had our share of thoughts. I presented my gift; he was so happy. I took a couple of pictures and waved bye. From then on every time he came to the hospital for his checkup we would meet. We also spoke over the phone while he was away in his hometown. This went on for the past years.

Jinesh came to the hospital again this year for his checkup and his blood counts were low. On July 7, 2012 Jinesh breathed last after his battle.

I still find it hard to think that it all happened. He was composed enough to say “Goodbyes” to people he knew during his last days. Unfortunately I could not see him the last time he came to the hospital. But Jinesh has become an important part of my life.

What should I think—that this battle was over at last? Was life unfair to him? Didn’t he deserve to see and enjoy the things that many of us take for granted? I don’t know!

But one thing I know for sure. Jinesh is one of the real-life Heroes. I will miss you Jinesh. I love you. YOU ARE A HERO!

63. Which is the most proper place to put the sentence “Everyone carries some load(负荷); Jinesh too had one.”?

A. Before Paragraph 3. B. Before Paragraph 5. C. Before Paragraph 7. D. Before Paragraph 10.

64. Which is the right order of the following events that happened in this story? ① I came across Jinesh and his father at a hospital restaurant. ② Jinesh picked up leukemia.

③ Jinesh died in our hospital after his battle was over. ④ Jinesh shared with me his creations.

⑤ Jinesh’s father shared his son’s diagnosis and therapy. ⑥ Jinesh was calm enough to say goodbye to everyone.

A. ②⑤①④③⑥ B. ②①④⑤③⑥C. ②⑤①④⑥③D. ②①④⑤⑥③ 65. What can we learn from the story? A. Try to be a hero in your own life. B. Facing difficulties, don’t give up. C. Wearing a smile is good in hardships. D. We shouldn’t fail to decorate our own life.

Sit-down habit is killing us

How many hours do you spend sitting in a chair every day? Eight hours in the office plus three hours in front of the TV after work is the norm for many people. Yu probably don’t need an expert to tell you that sitting too much is not good for your health---from an increased risk of heart disease and obesity in the long term, to reduced cholesterol maintenance in the short term, not to reduced cholesterol maintenance in the short term, not to mention the strain on your neck and spine.

To make matters worse, a growing body of research finds that negative effects of sitting too much cannot be replaced with a good diet and regular exercise, according to an article in The New York Times.

The article reported that a 2010 study of nearly 9,000 Australians found that for each additional hour of television a person watched per day, the risk of dying rose by 11 percent.

Another study tracked the health of 123,000 Americans between 1992 and 2006. The death rate for men who spent six hours or more per day sitting was about 20 percent higher than for men who sat for three hours or less. The death rate for women who sat for more than six hours a day was about 40 percent higher. In other words, sitting is killing us.

Stand up for health

So what can we do about it? Health experts suggest we break up those many hours spent sitting with more hours spent standing.

The BBC and the University of Chester in the UK conducted a simple experiment with a small group of 10 volunteers who usually spent most of the day sitting. They were asked to stand for at least three hours a day. The researchers took measurements on days when the volunteers stood, and when they sat around. When they looked at the data there were some striking differences, the BBC reported on Oct. 16.

Blood glucose leveled off after a meal much quicker on the days when the study subjects stood compared with the days they spent in a chair. Standing also burned more calories — about 50 calories an hour. Over the course of a year that would add up to about 30,000 extra calories, or around 3.63 kilograms of fat. \to running about 10 marathons a year,\by standing up three or four hours during your day at work.\

Buckley said that although doing exercise offers many proven benefits ,our bodies also need the constant, almost imperceptible(感觉不到的) increase in muscle activity that standing provides. Simple movement helps us to control our all-important blood sugar.

The researchers believe that even small adjustments, like standing while talking on the phone, going over to talk to a colleague rather than sending an e-mail, or simply taking the stairs instead of the elevator, will be of great help to us.
