     Joanne was stuck in a traffic jam in central Birmingham at 5:30, and at 6:30 she was expected to be

chairing a meeting of the tennis club. At last, the traffic was moving. She swung quickly racing to her

house. As she opened the door, she nearly tripped over Sheba.

     "Hey, Sheba" she said, "I've got no time for you now, but I'll take you out as soon as I get back from

tennis club." Then she noticed Sheba seemed to be coughing or choking. Obviously, she could hardly

breathe. Immediately Joanne realized she would have to take her to the vet (兽医). When she got there,

the vet was just about to close for the day. Seeing the state of Sheba, Dr. Sterne brought her quickly into

his office.

     "Listen, doctor, I'm really in a rush to get to a meeting. Can I leave her with you, and go and get changed?

I'll be back in ten minutes to pick her up, and then I'll take her on to the meeting with me. Is that OK?"

     "Sure." said the doctor.

     Joanne made the quick trip back to her house in a couple of minutes. As she was once more entering

the hallway, the phone by the door began to ring.

     "This is Dr. Sterne," said an anxious voice. "I want you to get out of that house immediately," said the

doctor's voice. "I'm coming round soon, and the police will be there any time now. Wait outside!"

     At that moment, a police car screeched to a stop outside the house. Two policemen got out and ran into

the house. Joanne was by now completely confused and very frightened. Then the doctor arrived.

     "Where's Sheba? Is she OK?" shouted Joanne.

     "She's fine, Joanne. I took out the thing which was choking her, and she's OK now."

     Just then, the two policemen reappeared from the house, half-carrying a white-faced man, who could

hardly walk. There was blood all over him.

     "My God," said Joanne, "how did he get in there? And how did you know he was there?"

     "I think he must be a burglar," said the doctor. "I knew he was there because when I finally removed

what was stuck in Sheba's throat: it turned out to be three human fingers."

As a girl, I've spent a great deal of my time on earth concerned about my weight. So I do know something about exercise. Let me tell you about the calorie-burning activities I've tried or will try.

Salsa (萨尔萨舞)

I try to maintain my weight through dancing. Dancing improves my coordination and sense of rhythm in addition to burning calories. I'm personally interested in salsa, which I find sexy and expressive(有表现力的). But I have not yet to start classes, because classes are very expensive, and I cannot find a dance partner.

Ping-Pong

Ping-pong is the national sport of China, so how could I know nothing about it?

My father is a ping-pong fan, and a really good player. He's won several informal (非正式的) matches. My relationship with ping-pong has always been on-and-off. I'll get into it for a while, and then lose interest. The reason is because I can’t find a good partner. Some stronger can depress you, while someone weaker (or just as weak) can make the game boring.

Tae Kwon Do (跆拳道)

I've recently decided to try tae kwon do as my regular exercise activity. There’s a story behind this choice: A few weeks ago, I was sitting on a bus, concentrating on a book. Suddenly, the bus became very quiet except for the sound of a woman’s crying. I looked up to see what had happened and overheard whispers that she had just quarreled with a man, and the man slapped(拍打) her face. No one on the bus dared say anything because the man looked really strong. Even now I feel ashamed I was among the silent.

That’s why I've made up my mind to learn something that will help me protect others and myself.
