　　Passage 73

　　Are you carrying too much on your back at school? You’re not alone. Back experts in the United States are worried that young students are having back and neck problems as a result of carrying too much in their backpacks (schoolbags).

　　“It hurts my back when I run,” said Oberlin Reyes, a student in Virginia. “It’s hard to get up the stairs with my backpack, because it’s too heavy.”

　　Oberlin is among students whose backpacks were weighed for a week in a recent study.

　　They had regular backpacks with two straps (带子) to carry them, but a number of students with heavy loads had switched to rolling backpacks (which have wheels and can roll on the ground).

　　Shirley Park, whose backpack weighed 10 kilograms, said she changed to a rolling backpack because she was starting to have back pain.

　　How much is too much? Experts say students should carry no more than 10 to 15 percent of their own body weight.

　　A few students had one suggestion to lighten the load: less homework.

　　P.S. (附) Doctor’s suggestion:

　　① Lighten the load. Clean out binders (活页材料) and take home only the books you need that night.

　　② Wide straps are better. They send out the weight over your shoulders more evenly (均匀). And be sure to wear both straps rather than hanging the pack over one shoulder.

　　③ Pack smart. The heavier things should be packed closed to the back.

　　④ Bend both knees when you pick up the pack, and don’t just bend over at the waist (腰).

　　A.may lighten their backpacks　B.can learn how to help themselves

　　Passage 74

　　Some British and American people like to invite friends and colleagues for a meal at home. You should not be upset (心烦意乱) if your English friends don’t invite you home. It doesn’t mean they don’t like you.

　　Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p.m., and end at about 11. Ask your hosts what time you should arrive. It’s polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a present.

　　Do you want to be extra (特别地) polite? Say how much you like the room, or the pictures on the wall. But remember—not to ask how much things cost.

　　You’ll probably start the meal with soup, or something small as a “starter” (酵母), then you’ll have meat or fish with vegetables, and then a dessert (甜食), followed by coffee. It’s polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want it. Some people eat bread with their meal, but not everyone does.

　　Before they take out their cigarettes after the meal, most people usually ask, “Do you mind if I smoke here?”

　　Did you enjoy the evening? Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short “thank you” letter. Perhaps it seems funny to you, but British and American people say, “thank you, thank you, and thank you.” all the time.
