8．I will never forget the lesson about my window．Four years ago，I moved to a house in a large town．One of my new neighbors'house was only a few feet away from mine．There lived a woman．Through one of my windows，I could see her reading by her window every afternoon．
Several months later，I found I couldn't see the woman clearly．I thought her window was too dirty．I said to myself，"Why doesn't she clean her window？It looks terrible!"

The experience is very important for me．So I try to clean the window of my heart before judging（評(píng)判） others．

7．Height is just one of the thousands of features that your genes decide．In fact，because you have parents，your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent．If both your parents are tall，then most probably you will be tall，too．But if you have questions about how tall you're going to b e，ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out．
      But genes don't decide everything．For example，eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential．Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height．
      No doubt you're wondering how fast you should grow．There's no perfect or right answer．Generally speaking，kids grow about two inches （six centimeters） a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty．（青春期）．
      Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years．How you've been growing up to this point，and what other changes your body may be going through．
       Don't be scared if you have grown a lot in a very short time．Everyone has a growth spurt （高峰） during puberty．The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys．But it can be earlier or later---between 7 and 9 and 15 for boys．
      You'll usually begin to notice that you're growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty．

66．If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow，B．
A．you should have enough exercise．
B．you can ask doctors for help．
C．you can record your growth during puberty．

6．We can see some overhead bridges（天橋） in Yueyang city．There is one near the No.1People's Hospital．Another is in front of the Bus Station．As we all know，it is not safe to cross a busy road．These bridges can help people cross the roads safely．Overhead bridges have the same use as street crossings．
Many people think it great trouble to go through overhead bridges．The old and the young think it's difficult for them to climb up and down the steps of the overhead bridges．But why does the government build so many overhead bridges？That's because old people and young children walk slowly．And when they cross a busy road using a street crossing，the traffic will be held up or maybe stopped，or even a traffic accident may happen．With the help of the overhead bridges，people and the traffic can move at the same time．
A lot of money has been spent building these overhead bridges．People，old or young should always use them．This can help stop traffic accidents from happening．
