Prana was a beautiful dog, whose name means “breath of life”. Although he died several years ago, I can still remember the days we spent together and what he has taught me about love.
I have two apple trees in the garden. Prana loved apples. When he went outside, he’d catch an apple and take it into the house to eat later. The apples had been on the ground and were often dirty so I wasn’t always happy that Prana had brought them into the house.
It was an autumn day in America, but it was very cold. A big snow fell and we had not done anything for its coming. On that special day, Prana went outside and I watched him through the window. I noticed that he was madly digging(挖) holes and bringing the apples to the ground so they could be seen above the snow. I did not know why he was doing this. He seemed to want to do something special.
When I called him back, he had his usual one apple in his mouth. About five minutes later, I looked outside. The garden was completely covered with birds. Prana had dug up all those apples for his bird friends to eat. He knew that they wouldn’t have stored enough food for the coming winter!

Stress （压力） is everywhere in our everyday life. Not only men have it, but also women and young people.
The most important reasons of stress are：death, diseases（疾病）, exams, making money, getting married, moving houses, changing jobs, ending friendships and so on .
How do you know whether you have stress? Could you give your answers to the following questions?

Yes
No

Do you get headaches a lot?


Do you take sleeping pills?


Do you find it difficult to relax?


Do you usually hide your feelings?


Do you smoke and drink a lot to keep quiet?


Do you find it difficult to put your heart into something?


If you answer “Yes” to more than two of these questions, you are one of those people with stress. So what can you do about it?
Doing relaxing exercises, talking with friends and listening to light music are all usual ways of relieving（减轻） stress. However, doctors now say that there are easier ways—people should laugh and smile more often. When you laugh and smile, your body relaxes.

Dear Editor,
I’m an overweight(超重的) girl. People always make fun of me. At school, I don’t spend much time with other students and don’t like to join in activities that I enjoy because I’m afraid people might laugh at me. ①What should I do? Please tell me.
Lily
Dear Lily,
②No matter what you weigh, you should be treated with kindness. People who make fun of you are making a mistake. They should accept you for who you are.
My advice for you is to pay no attention to your classmates’ comments and all the rude things they may say about you. （3）Don’t let them upset you, or you will have a bad time all day.
At the same time, you shouldn’t（4） distance yourself from them. Instead, find someone you trust(信任) and develop a friendship with him or her. Then you’ll feel happier and safer. And don’t be afraid to take part in any activities you like. Remember: （5）People are more interested in your behavior than your weight.
If you feel that your weight is really becoming a problem, then you can start doing things that make you feel better about yourself. You could take up exercise such as running, swimming or jumping rope. Also, you could eat less junk food but something healthier.
