My name is Paul Miller. I was too fat before, but now I do not have this problem. My doctor tells me to jog(慢跑). So early every morning I run for two miles before breakfast. I do not run fast, but I do not stop to rest.
People call me a jogger. There are many joggers on my street. We often run together in the park or along the road. Jogging helps to keep us strong and healthy.
Jogging is very popular in the United States. People like to feel well and look nice. Some people do not jog, but they do not get fat. They work hard on their jobs and they do not need to run before they go to work.
Do you want to jog? Go to your doctor first. Your doctor can tell you something about jogging. My doctor tells me to eat only three meals a day. I feel healthy and my doctor is happy because I jog every day and I do not eat anything before or after meals.

If someone asks you, “What colour is the sky?” I think you will answer “blue”. I’m afraid that you will be wrong. The sky has no colour. It looks blue because we are looking at the blue sunlight. The sunlight is shining on little bits of dust(灰尘) in the air.
Is the sky full of air? I’m sure that you have asked this question, too. We know that there is air all around the world, but we couldn’t fly very high because as we go high, the air gets thinner. If we go far enough away from the earth, we find there is no air.
Maybe we can answer some questions now. What is the sky? Where is it? It is all round the world. The sky is space(宇宙空间). In space there is nothing, but only the sun, the moon, the earth and all the other stars.
