One afternoon, it was very hot. I was on the highway to Fuzhou when another car suddenly came into my lane(车道). My car was ill the far right lane, so it ran onto the roadside. luckily, it didn't cause an accident.

I was with that driver, but I that he just did not pay attention to the lane change, and maybe be was just.

The car ran away after cutting me off. Very soon it disappeared. After a while, I came around a curve(弯道）and found the same car. The driver was walking along the roadside. He was an elderly man and looked . As there was no telephone nearby and the nearest services were twenty miles away, I decided to help and see what the problem was.

The man's car had a flat tire(瘪胎).Though he had another tire, had nothing to work with. I decided to help him. I changed the tire for him and let him sit in my air-conditioned(空调）car while 1 did it.

A study was made to find out how lazy British people are. About 2, 000 people took part in this study. The results are surprising.

More than half of people are so lazy that they'd wait for the lift for a long time rather than walk to the second floor.

About seventeen percent said if their remote control(遥控器)was broken, they would go on watching the same TV show rather than get up.

More than thirty percent said they would not run to catch a bus.

So it's no wonder that seventeen percent of children in the UK are fat before they start school.

Dr. Sarah Dauncey said. People need to get healthier for themselves and their families.

How can we keep healthy? We should get into a good habit first.

Agatha Christie was one of the most successful authors of all time and a master of murder mysteries. One of her plays, The Mousetrap (捕鼠器), has been playing in England for 68 years. It is the world's longest running play. It began in Nottingham in 1952, moving to St. Martin's Theatre in London in 1974. Nearly 500 actors have acted in the play over the years.

The play begins with the sound of the murder. The curtains open on Monkswell Manor. The house has recently been changed to a hotel by Mollie and Giles Ralson. As they get ready for their first guests, they listen to news of the murder on the radio. It was a woman called Maureen Lyon, and the main suspect is a man wearing a dark coat.

There is heavy snow as the guests arrive at the hotel. Christopher Wren is young and untidy. Mrs Boyle arrives by taxi with Major Metcalf, a retired soldier. Mioss Casewell is a young lady who dresses like a man. An unexpected guest, Mr Paravicini, arrives because his car is stuck in the snow. Everyone is wearing dark coats, because of the weather!

There is a call from the police. Sergeant Trotter is coming to talk to them. He explains Mrs Lyon was recently released from prison. She was there for mistreating (虐待)her foster children, and the police believe she was murdered by one of them. A notebook was found with the address of Monkswell Manor and the words"Three Blind Mice". On the body was a note with the words"This is the first. " Soon after, Mrs Boyle is strangled at the hotel. Who is the murderer?

The Mousetrap has an important tradition. When the play has been finished, and the murderer has been revealed, the actors always ask the audience not to tell anyone who the murderer is!
