Once there were two crows (烏鴉)whose opinions(觀點) were always opposite.

One day, one of the crows said to the other, “ You should realize, of course, that I can fly much higher than you.”

“ Don’t be ridiculous (荒謬的).” the other crow said. “ Everyone knows that I can fly much higher than you.”

“No, you can’t” the first crow said.

“Yes, I can” the second crow replied, and the argument went on and on.

At last they decided to have a contest to solve the argument.

“ We will compete to find out who can fly higher while carrying a bag” the first crow said.

They argued for some time because of the size of the bag, but at last came to an agreement.

Then there was a further argument about what each bag would be filled with. Finally, they agreed that the first crow would fill his bag with cotton and the second crow would fill his with salt.

The first crow thought he was clever to agree to this, because salt is much heavier than cotton. At last they were ready for the contest. Holding their bag in their mouths, they flew into the sky.

They had not been flying for long. However, when it began to rain- as the second crow had expected it would. Can you guess who could fly higher?

How would you like to live in a land where the sun shines day and night? There are place in the polar regions where, for North, the sun never sets! This is known as the land of the Midnight Sun. This period of sunlight can last up to six months.

This happens because the Earth tilts(傾斜). When the North Pole is tilted towards the sun, it has constant (不斷) daylight. As the same time, the South Pole is tilted away from the sun. It is in darkness.

Six months later, the South Pole tilts to the sun and has constant daylight. Then the North Pole is tilts away. It has darkness.

What will you do if weight keeps going up? Here are ideas to help you stay healthy:

Don’t sit around

Stay active. Try to exercise 30 to 60 minutes every day. Your exercise doesn’t have to be hard. Start small. Take the stairs instead of the elevator(電梯). Walk or ride a bike to places such as school or a friend’s house. Help your mum with housework, such as cleaning windows or the bathroom. It all burns fat. Make changes from time to time so you don’t get bored: Try running, biking, skating. There are many choices. Don’t spend long hours watching TV or playing video games. Even reading a book burns more fat.

Eat healthy

Truly different kinds of food and get enough fruits and vegetables each day. Drink water and low fat milk instead of soft drinks like Cola. Stay away from fast food. Eat when you are hungry, not when you are bored or because you can’t think of anything else to. Don’t eat meals or snacks while watching TV because you’ll probably end up eating more than you need. Some worry so much about their weight that they don’t eat breakfast. This is a bad idea. Teenagers need enough food. If not, you won’t get the nutrients you need to grow normally.

Don’t rush to go on a diet

Even if you are a little heavier than your fiends, you still may be normal. Remember to talk to doctors and your parents before you decide to lose weight.
