A
Ten years ago I used to be very fit。

I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends。

I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didn’t earn very much。

I had a job in an office。

It wasn’t a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing. Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job。

The pay was better，but the hours were a lot longer。

I bought a car and drove to work every day。

I began to take people out to lunch。

And I began to put on weight，too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn't have any time for things like that any more。

There’s a lot of stress in my job. Perhaps that is why I started drinking more than I used to。

For example，I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home，but then I started filling my glass to the top，and instead of having one glass，I would have several。

I started smoking a lot, too。

I never used to smoke at all。

Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn't believe it. Luckily it wasn't very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less。

He also advised me to
work less and get more exercise. But I just haven't any time！My job takes everything out of me! Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job。

Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do that，I won’t earn as much. I have a family to support。

I have to think of them, too。

In the US，people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don't know．This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available．even if a large one is．If you are sitting at a table with people you don't know，it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them．
At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water（自来水)before you order．You may find the bread and butter is free，and if you order coffee，you may get a free refill．
Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants，though they usually do make rules for bars．Especially in large cities，stores may be open 24 hours a day．Serving in restaurants is often large, too large for many people．If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later．ask your waitress or waiter for a“doggie bag”．It may have a picture of a dog on it，but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself．Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal．Some people have“Sunday dinner”．This is an especially big noon meal．Tips are not usually added to the check．They are not included in the price of the meal，either．A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it On the table when you leave．In some restaurants，a check is
brought on a plate and you put your money there．Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change．

Pingyao, in the center of Shanxi Province, is a famous historic cultural city of China and a world cultural heritage (遗产）site。

It’s 90 kilometers south of Taiyuan on the Fen River. People lived in Pingyao during the New Stone Age。

Its long period as a county government seat has left Pingyao with lots of historic buildings and sites, with a 2,700—year history.
Ninety-nine of them are under government protection, including Zhengguo Temple, Shuanglin Temple and Pingyao Ancient City。

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, businessmen organized commercial （商业的) groups that did business nationwide。

Shanxi Province had some of the most important ones and Pingyao was their center。

In 1823, a store，known as Rishengchang （Sunrise Prosperity）, traded in bank checks rather than in silver or gold coins. It was the beginning of modern Chinese banking. Branch （分支）banks were soon set up in major cities in China and other parts of Asia，leading to great development in Pingyao。

Its lacquer ware （漆器) became well known. In Pingyao Ancient City are many traditional houses and commercial buildings，3,797 of which are
protected and more than 400 of which are in good condition. Not only do the houses in P ingyao show Shanxi’s history and culture, but this large number is valuable for studying its history, customs, ancient buildings and art. Most of these houses are still used as homes and shops of local people。

In 1997，Ancient Pingyao City was listed in World Heritage List as “World Culture Heritage Site”.
13．What does the underlined word “them” (in Paragraph 2）refer to？

The way to keep healthy
Nowadays people pay more and more attention to their own healthy in daily life。

As students, we should know more about how to keep fit.
Firstly, it is necessary for us to keep a balanced diet，such as eating
more vegetables and fruits which are rich in fiber and vitamins，rather than having food containing too much fat or sugar。

Secondly, doing sports will have a good effect on our bodies. Many researches show people who take exercises regularly can have a stronger body than those who do not。

Thirdly，forming a good living habit is beneficial for us. Just as a saying goes, “Early to bed，early to rise, makes a person healthy，wealthy and wise."Moreover，it is suggested that keeping a positive attitude towards life is of great importance。

In a word, only in this way can we keep healthy。
