Like many other single men in their middle age, hewas getting rather set(固定) in his ways. He looked after the house well and had a beautifulgarden. Before he left the house in the morning, he would carefully close allthe doors downstairs, open some windows upstairs to let the air in and lock thefront door.One summer evening Jonathanreturned home as usual, just at five minutes to seven. When he opened the frontgate he immediately noticedsomething unusual. There was a heavy footprint(脚印) in the earth in one of the flower beds. Jonathan was just going to blame the milkman when henoticed that one of the white curtains in the front room downstairs was out ofplace. Jonathan never left anything out of place.He walked up to the frontdoor and opened it quietly. He listened carefully for a few moments but couldhear nothing. The front-room door was half-open. Jonathan studied it thoughtfully, wondering if he had forgotten to close it that morning. Hehadnever forgotten to do it before. He stepped silently across the hall to thedoor and looked inside the room. The shadow(影子) of a man was clearly reflected(反射) on the far wall in the evening sunlight. The man had clearly beenstanding behind the door since Jonathan’s return. Jonathan immediately lockedthe door. Then he picked up the telephone in the hall and began calling thepolice.The thief, a tall fellowwith a beard, tried to climb through a window to get out but Jonathan had e_pected that.

Then, after returning to the United States from a busy and tiring trip to Russia, Mr Cousins got sick. Because he had pushed his body to the limit of its strength on the trip, a chemical change began to take place inside him. The material between his bones became weak.In less than one week after his return, he could not stand. Every move that he made was painful. He was not able to sleep at night.The doctors told him that they did not know how to cure Mr Cousins' problem and he might never get over the illness. Mr Cousins, however, refused to give up hope.Mr Cousins thought that unhappy thoughts were causing bad chemical changes in his body. He did not want to take medicine to cure himself. Instead, he felt that happy thoughts or laughter might cure his illness.He began to experiment on himself while still in the hospital by watching funny shows on television. Mr Cousins quickly found that ten minutes of read laughter during the day gave him two hours of pain-free sleep at night.Deciding that the doctors could not help him, Mr Cousins left the hospital and checked into a hotel room where he could continue his experiments with laughter. For eight days, Mr Cousins rested in the hotel room watching funny shows on television, reading funny books, and sleeping whenever he felt tired. Within three weeks, he felt well enough to take a vacation to Puerto Rico where he began running on the beach for exercise.After a few months, Mr Cousins returned to work. He had laughed himself back to health.21.

Todde made it into the Guinness book of Records when he turned 112 last year and wore his crown of "The Oldes Living Man on Earth" with pride and a sense of humor.Born in a tiny mountain village in 1889, the same year work on the Eiffel Tower was completed and baby Adolf Hitler took his first breath, Todde seldom left the village. He lived in the same house with his wife of 78 years, Maria Mntonia,all his life.He witnessed ( 见证) the two World Wars, a technological revolution and saw the world's population quadruple (4 倍) but was untroubled by the passing of the years."His life was very simple but those 100 years, he lived them to the full,"said Mariolina, recalling how he liked to play cards with his friends and go for long walks.Todde's life and that of his fellow islanders is the focus of a scientific study.A remarkable number of Sardinia's 1. 6 million people live through a century. Some 135 people per million live to see their 100th birthday.Todde's own family seems a case in point — his two daughters are 78 and 81 separately and his sister is 98.The answer to the often-posed question of just how he managed it was simple for Antonio."Just love your brother and drink a good glass of red wine every day,"he was quoted (引证) as saying when he celebrated his 112th birthday last year."You take one day after the other, you just go on "25.

At a school in Atlanta, so many parents drive their children to school. The school has to give each car rider an ID number so they can find their own cars out of hundreds waiting in line.Health officials are worried because the lack of exercise may worsen the country's growing problem of childhood obesity. The number of overweight teens has tripled (3倍) since 1980. At the same time, diabetes (糖尿病), once unheard of in children, is increasing greatly among them.When asked their reasons for not sending their children to school on foot, parents agree that distance, traffic, weather and crime (犯罪) are their top concerns. The mother of a 10-year-old girl said that even though the trip was less than a mile, she was afraid to let her child walk to school. "You hear too many things about kids getting picked up, "she said.Getting more children to walk or bike to school should be a national health goal, some health officials say. A goal has been set to get at least 50 percent of children who live less than a mile from school walking or cycling to school by 2010.29.

My husband had insisted on watering the flowers in the garden byhimself, and when he discovered that he couldn't manage, he had to ask me for help at the last moment. So now we had an hour to get to the airport. Luckily, there were not many cars or buses on the road and we were able to get there just in time. We checked in and went straight to a big hall to wait for our flight to be called. We waited and waited but no announcement was made. We asked for information and the girl there told us that the plane hadn't even arrived yet. In the end there was another announcement telling us that passengers waiting for Flight LJ 108 could get a free meal voucher (card) and that the plane hadn't left Spain for technical problems. We thought that meant that it wasn't safe for the plane to fly. We waited again for a long time until late evening when we were asked to report again.
