41 a river there was a very narrow (窄的) bridge. One day a goat was crossing this bridge, just at the middle of the bridge he met another goat. There was no room for them to pass.

"Go back," said one goat to 　42 . "There is no room for 　43 of us."

　 "Why should I go back?" asked the other goat. "Why 　44　 you go back?"

　 "You must go back," said the first goat, "because I am 　45 than you."

　 "You are not bigger than I." said the second goat.

　"We will see about that." said the first goat, and he put down his bores (羊角) 　46 .

　 "Stop!" said the second goat. "If we fight, we shall both 　47　 into the river and be drowned (淹死). 　48 , I have a plan--1 shall lie down, and you may walk over me."

　 Then the wise goat 　49 down on the bridge, and the other goat walked 　50　 over him. So they passed each other, and went on their ways.

　　　 It is very important to stay healthy. I have a neighbor. She is an old lady. She can do all the housework, 　41 newspapers, watch TV and search on the Internet to learn something new. I often see 　42 do taijiquan in the morning and dance in the evening. She looks young and beautiful 　43 she is over seventy. Last week a reporter from a magazine interviewed her and asked 　44 she kept so young and healthy. She replied with a smile:

　　　 I have a secret of staying young and healthy. It is quite 　45　 . Keep your mind active, take an interest in the world 　46 you, and learn at least one new thing every day. Try to do different kinds of housework and do sports as 　47 you can. Don’t think you are too old to go back to 　48　 . I know a man who entered a medical college when he was 70 years old. He studied there for 6 years and now he is a doctor. Another man went to a tennis school at the age of 71 and now he is good at 　49 tennis. Some people may say staying young is easy only for those who live in the future. In fact, no matter how old you are, you can make it.

　　　 Please tell the story to your family. It would be a good start to 　50 the lady’s example. I hope all people will stay young and healthy.
