短文改错题。
Yesterday my husband received a letter from a lady who had been her
student in middle school. She wrote it so she wanted to thank him for the greatly
influence he had on her life. She wrote, “You were the teacher who helped me
discovering my talent for maths. Before you taught us, I had never thought I
will love it. To my surprise, you magically showed the beauty of maths for me.
Gradually my interest in it was increased. Thanks to your teaching, I made
continuous progresses in maths, and finally made my mind to study it as my
major in university. Now I am an accountant of the big company. You played
an important part. Thank you!”
The right pair of exercise shoes can do a lot to prevent discomfort and injuries, personal trainers say．Here are some shopping tips:
1. Depending on your workout, shoes designed for walking, running, tennis, cross-training or another specialty will provide the best support for your feet．
Shop when you normally exercise．Feet actually get bigger throughout the day, sometimes swelling up as much as a half-size by nighttime． 2.
Try them on．Never grab a pair of exercise shoes based only on the size of footwear you normally buy．Bring the type of socks you’d wear to work out and go for a walk through the store．
3. You should be able to spread your toes out comfortably．Make sure there’s about a half-inch of space between them and the front of the shoe．The back should fit snugly (warmly and comfortably) against your heel and not move up and down．If your feet are different sizes, buy based on the larger one．
Talk to an expert．Shoe salesmen and personal trainers can study your stride (步伐) and the shape of your feet． 4.
5. Many trainers recommend switching footwear every three to five months, if possible, to maintain（保持）proper cushioning and support．One tip: if you have to tie your shoes very tightly to feel a good amount of support, they may be ready to go．
A．Think about how much you can afford to buy the workout shoes．
B．Consider your type of exercise．
C．Focus on fit．
D．So don’t shop first thing in the morning if you often work out in the evening．
E．Pay more attention to new style shoes
F．Replace worn shoes regularly．
G．Usually they can recommend the best shoes to guard against injuries．
An allergy is a strong reaction to a substance. Many things can cause allergies. The most common cause is pollen (花粉), which is usually produced by trees in the spring, grasses in the summer and weeds in the fall, as part of their reproductive process.
Other causes include organisms, chemicals, plants and dead skin particles from dogs and cats can also cause allergic reactions. So can insect stings and some food.
The most common kind of allergic reactions is itchy (痒的) , watery eyes and a blocked or watery nose. Allergies can also cause red, itchy skin. Some reactions can be life-threatening, for example, when breathing passages become blocked.
It is not always easy to avoid allergies. Drugs may offer an effective treatment. Another treatment used in some cases is called immunotherapy. A patient is injected with small amounts of the allergy-causing substance. The idea is that larger and larger amounts are given over time until the patient develops resistance in his body.
In the United States, experts estimate that up to 8% of young children have food allergies. Every year these allergies cause about 30,000 cases with severe reactions that require immediate treatment. It can result in breathing trouble and in some cases death. It is said that about 100 to 200 people will die. It is said that most of the reactions are caused by peanuts and tree nuts like walnuts.
People can also be allergic to medicines. The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology says about 10％ of bad reactions to commonly used medicines are allergic. In other words, a person’s immune system overreacts and produces an allergic reaction. The most common reactions include skin rashes, itching, breathing problems and swelling in areas such as the face.
