“You're going to the doctor，”your mum tells you. But why go to the doctor when you're not sick？Regular checkups（健康检查）are a good idea for kids. These visits happen when you're feeling fine and are sometimes called “well-child” visits because you're well.
It's a chance for the doctor to see that you're growing and developing normally. It's also a chance for your parents to talk with the doctor about any issues，such as safety or nutrition，so they can help you stay healthy. And it gives you a chance to ask any question you might have about your health. You might wonder when you will grow taller，for example，or if you weigh the right amount.
A checkup may start when a nurse calls you and your parents from the waiting room. He or she might start by checking your weight and height，as well as your blood pressure and maybe your temperature.
Blood pressure：This shows how hard your heart is pumping blood throughout your body.
Body temperature：Using a thermometer，the nurse can find out if your temperature is in the normal range. If it is higher，it means that you have a fever and your body is working to fight off an infection（感染）.
The nurse may check your hearing and vision. If you have trouble with either one of these，you might need to see a hearing expert or an eye doctor. Urine（尿）can tell whether something is wrong with the way a person's body is working.
All of these numbers，measurements，and test results will go into your medical record，so the doctor can look them over. Then it's time to meet the doctor.

A fresh and gentle wind on your face, soft sand under your feet and blue waters as far as the eye can see. Is there any other Olympic sport that is played in such pleasant conditions as beach volleyball?
“I've gone to a lot of beautiful places, and met a lot of beautiful people. That wouldn't have happened if I had been playing another sport,” said Randy Stoklos, America's most famous beach volleyball player.

Yet at that time, beach volleyball was more an entertainment show than a sport, with beauty contests included. The Association of Volleyball Professionals was founded in 1983 and beach volleyball developed into a fast, athletic sport. Its worldwide popularity won beach volleyball a place at the 1996 Olympics in Atalanta, where 24 male teams and 16 female teams took part. At present, the US and Brazil are the best in the world at beach volleyball.
The game came to China in the early 1990s and there have been national tournaments since 1994. It became an official event at the Eighth National Games in1997. China's You Wenhui and Wang Lu finished ninth in the women's beach volleyball world championships in Brazil.

Of the thousands of different kinds of animals that exist in the world man has learned to make friends with an enormous number. Some are pets，and offer him companionship; some give protection，and some do hard work which man cannot do for himself. Dogs，which serve man in all three capacities，are found in various species in all countries of the world. The Husky can live in the cold polar regions，and the Saluki is at home in the hottest parts of Central Africa. The people of certain countries are dependent for their very lives on the camel. In the West Indies the little donkey，strong and sure－footed，carrying heavy loads even in mountainous places，is a familiar sight.
Trained and tamed for many generations，domestic (驯养的)animals are not accustomed to wandering in search of food and shelter. They look to their masters to provide for their needs，and as long as these are supplied，they are content to do what their masters require.
All domestic animals need proper food. It must be suitable for them，enough in quantity，fresh and clean. Some people feed a pet dog or cat on odds and ends of table scraps (吃剩的东西)，and then wonder why the animal seems tired and dull. The quantity of food depends on the size of the animal and the amount of exercise it takes. Overfeeding is as bad as underfeeding. Containers for food and water must be washed regularly if the animal is to maintain good health.
Even well－cared for animals may sometimes fall ill. If this happens，the wise master seeks the best advice he can get. All sorts of medicines and treatments are available for sick animals，and in some countries organizations exist to provide them free or at a cheap price. Useful，friendly，hardworking animals deserve to have some time and money spent on their health.
