  Try and see inside your mind a wide open blue sky and a wide green sea far away.Breathe in as you circle your hands high above your head, then bend back a little.Breathe out as you circle your arms back down to your sides…"

  Following the yoga teacher's gentle instructions, Bai Yunuo,15, from the High School attached to Beijing Normal University tried to get each of her poses correct.

  Bai's school offered 24 elective courses(选修课)for Senor 1 students this term and she chose two.It was her first yoga class.

  "I'm happy that I can learn yoga at school.I love dancing but I had some injuries on my knees when I was a kid.So I decide to try something soft.Simply stretching into different poses makes me feel free and quiet.And the music is quite comforting.The class is relaxing after a whole day's work," Bai said.

  Liu Zehao,15, found his interest was Junior Achievement(企业经营模拟).The course brought students into the real world of business.In their first class, Liu and his group members named their company "Vision".Liu was elected as CEO of the company.

  "Here we learn to think like an adult.We have to make our company get more money.It's new and different from other courses," he said.

  Liu and Bai take their elective courses twice a week with students from other classes who share the same interest.The students will get two credits(学分)from each course at the end of this term.They have to achieve eight credit points from electives to graduate from high school.

阅读理解

  I had to knock on the taxi to get his attention.Finally, the driver, a man about 60, looked up from behind the wheel and apologized, “I'm sorry, but I was reading a letter.” He sounded as if he had a cold or a cough.

  Since I was in no hurry, I told him to finish his letter.He shook his head, explaining that he had already read it several times and almost knew it by heart.Curious, I asked whether it was from a child or maybe a grandchild.“This isn't family,” he replied.“though he might just as well have been a regular member of the family.Old Ed and I grew up together.”

  They were always friends.But since he moved away from the neighborhood 30 years ago, it'd generally just been postcards at Christmas time between them.A couple of weeks ago, Ed died.“I should have kept in touch.” He repeated this, more to himself than to me.To comfort him, I said sometimes we just didn't seem to find the time.“But we used to find the time,” he said.“Take a look.” He handed the letter over to me.

  The first sentence “I've been meaning to write for some time, but I've always delayed it.” reminded me of myself.It went on to say that he often thought about the good times they had had together.When I read the part where it said “Your friendship really means a lot to me, more than I can say because I'm not good at saying things like that”, I found myself nodding in agreement.

  We had gone several kilometers and were almost at my hotel, so I read the last paragraph:“So I thought you'd like to know that I was thinking of you.” And it was ended with “Your Old Friend, Tom.”

  “I thought your friend's name was Ed,” I said.

  “I'm Tom,” he explained.“It's a letter I wrote to Ed before I knew he'd died.I never put it in the mailbox.I guess I should have written it sooner.” His face was pale as he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief.

  When I got to my hotel room I didn't unpack right away.I had to write a letter and post it.

(1)

Who wrote the letter?

[  ]

A.

Tom.
