12-year-old boy with some serious bullying （欺负） events.Fisher is the son of two scientists and is not short of interest in science.He is smart ，a bit of a dreamer and small.This has got the attention of one teacher and three bullies who have named themselves the Vikings.In his willingness to escape the rules of school ，Fisher develops an idea of using his mother ' s top secret experiment to make a pecfeate（克隆）.He creates a clone who goes to school and bears those terrible things while he himself stays at home and enjoys video games and snack food.Hisplan could have results ranging from perfect to disastrous.I think Fisher is a character that most children and adults can relate themselves to on some levels.Hedoes not try to keep away from some forms of conflict （冲突） or uncomfortable moments simply by blending （混合） into the background.He has little faith in himself ，except when it comes to his scientific skills and experiments.His clone ，Two，does not like Fisher.He steps up and becomes more accepted and popular than Fisher himself ever was.I recommend Popular Clone to middle school aged students and anyone who just wants to keep away from bullies and conflict.Anyone who has ever faced a disaster in self- respect will see a little bit of themselves in Fisher.The story could really make a difference in the life of young readers ，showing them that being true to themselves is

should know that long periods of sitting at your desk may be a killer.Scientists have shown a new threat from this lifestyle that they call “ muscular inactivity （肌肉迟钝）”．Sitting still for long periods of time leads to the buildup of substances （物质） in the blood that are Millions of people spend their days between car ，office desk and the sofa in front of the TV.While the bad influences are well rocognized ，it has been thought that they can be changed by regular trips to the gym or swimming pool.Now researchers say that is not enough.In addition to regular exercise ，office workers need to keep moving while they work ，by making regular trips to the printer ，coffee machine or to chat with workmates.Elin Ekblom-Bak，an expert on health ，says research shows long periods of sitting and lack （缺乏）of “ whole body muscular movement are ”strongly linked to obesity ，heart disease and cancer，and a higher risk of death ，regardless of （不管） whether they take enough exercise.“ Everyoneknows about the health benefits of regular exercise.But what we haven 'rtealized before is that long- period sitting down carries an extra risk that cannot be dealt with by taking exercise，” Dr Ekblom-Bak said，adding that sitting still should be recognized as a risk to health. “Itis important to have a five-minute break from desk work every 45 minutes.Don 'emt ail workmates —walk across the office to give them the message.Take a coffee break or put the printer in the next room.I am a desk worker and I try to do it.It is not difficult but sometimes you get lost in your work and you forget about it.”However ，more studies are needed to confirm the ill effects of sitting for too long and ways of fighting them.But at present they conclude that “keep moving ”should be added to the advice丄“]・・”to “keep exercising. ”33．Nowadays，many office workers wrongly think that _____ .A．long periods of sitting has bad influences on themB．regular exercise benefits them after long periods of sittingC．they
