　　In the Caucasus Mountains, nearly 50 out of every 100,000 people live to celebrate their 100th birthday, and many don't stop at 100! In American only 3 people in 100,000 reach 100．But these old people aren't alone．The people who live high in the Himalaya Mountains and the Andes Mountains, seem to share(分享)the secret of long life, too．

　　First of all, hard physical(体力的)work is a way of life for all of these long-lived people．They begin their long days of physical work as children and never seem to stop．For example, Mr．Rustam is 142 years of age．He has experienced several wars．His wife if 116 years old．They have been married for 90 year．Mr．Rustam doesn't want to stop his work as a farmer, “Why? What else would I do?” He asks．Oh, he has slowed down a bit, Now he might work for 6 hours in the field instead of 10．

　　Another factor(因素)that may contribute to the good health of these people is their isolation．Most of them are kept off the modern world．

　　Inherited(遗传的)factors also help．Most of the longest-lived people had parents and grandparents who also reached very old ages．So good family genes(基因)may be one factor in living longer．

　　Finally, although these three groups don't eat exactly the same food, they eat little animal meat．Their diets are full of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, cheese and milk, They never eat more food than body need．

　　Oxfam Trail walker has been one of Hong Kong's biggest fund-raising(筹款)events since 1981．It was known as Trail walker before．It is organized(组织)by Oxfam Hong Kong to raise money for helping poor people in Hong Kong and other parts of Asia and Africa．Trail walker is held in November every year．People over eighteen can group themselves into a team of four people and join this walk．

　　Oxfam Trail walker is a hard bike because you have to finish walking 100 kilometers in 48 hours．It means you may have to walk two days and nights without sleep．The trail walkers have to walk through eight country parks and over twenty hills and mountains．

　　It is an excellent chance for people to learn team spirit．All the team members must plan everything together before the event．They need to walk together to finish the hike because only the team's finishing time will be recorded．It is necessary for them to support(支持)and help each other both before and during the event．

　　You should plan what you are going to carry during the walk．You cannot carry everything with you, so it is useful to have support teams to bring you food and drinks．Warm and dry clothes are also necessary to keep you comfortable during the walk, Each team must raise at least HK＄6, 000．The money is used to help poor people and to support development projects(工程)．

　　Why not try your best to help people in need? This will be an experience you will never forget．

　　In 1996, Subaru sailed(航海)alone across the Pacific ocean．Many other people did this before Subaru, but he was special．At age 14, he was the youngest person to sail across the Pacific by himself．

　　Subaru left Tokyo on July 22,1996．In the boat, he had food and water for a two-month trip, He also had a radio and other modern machines for sailing．

　　The beginning of the trip went very well．Subaru often talked to his parents by radio．He didn't have any problems with his boat．Then, on August 11, the engine(发动机)in his boat stopped．Suddenly, Subaru was without electricity(电),This made it difficult to go on with his trip．Then, five days later, his radio stopped．Now he wasn't able to communicate(联络)with anyone．And he was still 2,770 miles away from San Francisco．

　　By the end of August, many people believed that Subaru was lost, No one was able to communicate with him by radio, His parents expected him to arrive in San Francisco on September 3, but he didn't．Then, on September 13, Subaru sailed into San Francisco．After 55 days in his boat, his trip was finally over．

　　Many people believe that Subaru was too young to sail alone．They say that parents shouldn't allow children to make such dangerous trips．However, Subaru's parents say that children should have such experiences．

Hello Sandy,

　　We have just returned from our holiday．We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors．This is a beautiful place．It is a natural park．There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds．

　　Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as be used to．However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live．Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk．Very pleasant!

　　I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley(峡谷)below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist in the valley．Also, in England, the old steam powered trains(蒸汽火车)are very popular．I have taken many photos of the train and from it．

　　Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter．It is very early(we usually expect snow in January)．It rained all day, then snowed in the evening．Today we have bright sunshine!

　　Both Jenny and I are well I don't know if I told you, in the last e-mail, that Jenny is now working in a hotel．Although she has to work hard, people there are nice and she is enjoying the work．

　　Please write to us to tell us your news．

Yours,

Victor

　　Miss Wu is a young teacher of English in China．She loves teaching very much．One day when she was giving an English lesson, she found the headmaster sitting at the back of the classroom．After class, the headmaster told her that he came to her class to find out how much English and how much Chinese she was using．The result was about half English and half Chinese．She was using Chinese when she gave instructions to her students and when she wanted to get feedback(反馈)from her students．The headmaster told her that she should use more English in her class．

　　Miss Wu made a plan like this：

　　·talk with an Englishman every Sunday for two hours to learn more English expressions;

　　·write some English expressions on cards．These cards not only remind her to use English in class, but also help her remember some expressions;

　　·have a five-minute talk in English with students before class．

　　She used body language to help her if students could not understand．

　　One year later, she found she could use English freely in class．

　　When you are reading something in English, you may often meet with a new word．What's the best way to know it?

　　You may look it up in an English-Chinese dictionary．It will tell you a lot about the word： the pronunciation, the part of speech(词性), the Chinese meaning and also how to use the word．But how can you know where the word is in thousands of English words? How to find it in thousands of English words? How to find it in the dictionary both quickly and correctly?

　　First, all the English words are arranged in the alphabetical(字母表的)order in a dictionary．

　　In the dictionary you can first see the words beginning with the letter A, B, C, D…That means, if there are two words “general” and “monitor”, “general” will be certainly before “monitor”．Then if there are two words both beginning with the same letter, you may look at the second letter．Then the third, the fourth…For example, “before” is before “begin”, “foreigner” is before “forest”, etc．

　　The dictionary will be your good friend．I hope you'll use it as often as possible in your English learning．
