FridayBThe BasketTwo things changed my life; my mother and a white, pretty bike basket. My mother is a strict parent and I had to earn my pocket money by doing housework around the house.One day, my mother drove me to the bike shop to get a tire fixed-and there it was in the window; white, shiny, and decorated with beautiful flowers. It was so special and I knew I had to have the basket. "It's beautiful," my mother said when I pointed it out to her."Mom, please, can I get it? I'll do more housework for as long as you say, but I need that basket. I really love it...""You know," she said gently, "If you save up, you could buy this yourself.""By the time I make enough, it'll be gone!""I'll buy the basket for you, but you have to work for it," she said.My mother bought the beautiful basket and put it safely in some secret place I couldn't find. Each week I eagerly counted my growing income. And then, weeks later, I jumped for joy. Oh, happy day! I made it! I finally had the exact amount we'd agreed upon.Days later, the unthinkable thing happened. A neighbour girl appeared with the exact same basket on her shiny, new bike. The eight-year-old me cried and ran fast back home to tell my mother about this terrible news.And then came the lesson I've taken with me through my life; "Honey, it doesn't matter that the baskets look the same. Your basket is extra-special," Mom said, gently drying my hot tears. "Your basket is special because you paid for it yourself."24.

Most people think that the big picture of how your body systems work together is important to understand. Sometimes the details interest us the most.

Then they die. The strand(股) of hair that comes out of your head does not have living cells in it. That's why a haircut follicle follicle doesn't hurt!You probably have about 100,000 hairs on your head right now. Hair strands grow all the time, then fall out and start to grow again.

However, new study shows that teens who go along with their friends may become healthier as adults. Scientists have known that close friendships help improve health. People who do their own thing may experience unpleasant feelings and get sick. Those findings inspired Joseph Allen, a scientist, to look at teen behavior. Allen's group noted that experiences during teen years might influence adult health.Scientists interviewed 171 teens every year for five years starting at the age of 13. These teens became the focal(中心的) teens in the study. The teens were asked about both positive and negative aspects of friendship. The scientists also spoke to their closest friends. They asked the friends how likely the focal person was to follow the crowd, go along with the friends or keep on doing his or her own thing.The same 171 people were interviewed again as adults, at ages 25, 26 and 27. This time, the questions surveyed each person's overall health. The scientists found a correlation between a teen's behavior and adult health. Firstly, teens who had close friends grew up to be the healthier adults. Secondly, teens who held back their feelings were more likely to be sick as adults than those who shared feelings with a close friend. What's more, the study found that teens who went along with what their friends wanted, instead of being independent, also were healthier in their twenties.The correlation held up(依然成立) even after the scientists included other possible influences on health, such as weight, family income and drug use. Study showed that such other things did not explain adult health as well as teen friendships did. For those who wonder whether they should follow the crowd or not, now they have a legitimate(合理的) reason to say yes!30.
