Have you had a headache during a test? Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can’t sleep at night? If so, then you know what stress is. Stress is what you feel when you are worried about something. This worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. You may feel angry, sad, or afraid---all of which can give you a stomachache or a headache.
However, there are different kinds of stress. Some kinds of stress are good and others are bad. Good stress might happen when you are called to answer questions in class or when you have to give a speech in public. This kind of stress can help you to get things better done. For example, you may do a better job on your test if the stress pushes you to prepare better before the test.
On the other hand, bad stress can happen if the stress lasts too long. You may not feel well if a family member is ill, if you are having problems at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy every day. That kind of stress isn’t going to help you. And it can actually make you sick.
The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life. Make sure you keep yourself in mind: Sleep, Exercise, Leisure(休闲), and Food. If you get enough sleep and eat healthily, and if you exercise and leave time to have fun, you will feel less stressed.

These days haze（雾霾）is around us here and there. In fact，everyone has the power to change their living habits to help reduce it. Many local governments call on their people to take action to make the air cleaner.
Transport is one of the biggest contributors（促成物）to haze. When，where，how，why and what you drive all affect air quality. When one drives to work for one year，he uses as mush energy as a bus rider uses in 10 years. So walk or ride your bicycle to work or school whenever possible. If it is necessary，you can use public transport instead of your car. Each person using public transport for a year instead of a car can save nearly a tonne of pollutants，including CO2，from going into the atmosphere.
Carpooling is another way to reduce carbon emissions（排放）.Carpooling is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car. It immediately reduces your car’s emissions by half.
What you do inside your living space can have a big effect on the air quality outside it. You can do a lot of things inside and around your home that will help you pollute less and save some money.
A large amount of our energy supply comes from burning coal，another contributor to haze. By cutting down your electricity use，you are cutting down on haze. So you may try to reduce your use of electricity by turning off lights，using your air conditioner wisely during the summer months，or updating some of your electrical appliances to low-energy models. For example，you can use energy-saving lamps that require less energy and last 10 times longer than common bulbs.

Height is just one of the features your genes（基因）decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too. But if you have questions about how tall you’re going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find them out.
But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential（潜力）. Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.
It’s natural that you’re wondering how fast you should grow. There’s no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about 6 cm a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty.
Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. 2 cm here and 3 cm there make a little difference to the height you’re at now. How have you been growing up to this height？What other changes may your body be going through？
Don’t be amazed if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt（高峰）during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later — between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.
You’ll usually begin to notice that you’re growing faster about a year after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.
1.If you want to know how tall you should grow, _______.
A. you should have enough exercise
B. you can ask doctors for help

A. how the genes work in your body
B. how your parents’ height influence you
C. how you look like your parents
D. how you grow to a certain height
4.Which is NOT mentioned in the passage？
A. Your height most probably depends on how tall your parents are.
B. Girls’ age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys’.
C. The features showing the first changes of puberty between boys and girls are different.
D. You may be amazed sometimes when you grow too fast.
