Do you know how many bones are there in your body? When you were a baby,you had about 330 bones, and now you have just over 200 bones. The number reduces because some bones join together as you grow. Your wonderful bones work together to protect you and support your body. Many uses Many bones protect your body. For example, the bone that makes up your head is called the skull. The skull surrounds your brain and protects it. The ribs(肋骨) that cover your chest protect your heart and lungs. Other bones are used to support the body. The many bones in your feet allow you to walk and stand on your tiptoes. Your hands and feet have more than half of the bones in your body! Biggest Bone The longest and strongest bone in your body is your leg. It is called the femur(股骨), and it grows from your hip to your knee. It is a very important bone because it carries all of your weight and helps you move from place to place. Smallest Bone Would you believe the smallest bone in your body is in your ear? It is about the size of a grain of rice and is called the stirrup. When sound waves come into your ear, the stirrup shakes back and forth, allowing the sound waves to reach your brain. When the waves reach your brain, you hear the sound. “Funny” Bone Hah ! The funny bone isn’t really a bone at all. It is actually a nerve(神经). When you hit the nerve that is near your elbow, it really hurts or tingles(刺痛. What’s so funny about that? The funny bone probably got its name from the bone that is above your elbow. That bone is called the humerus, which sounds like the word ―humorous‖, means ―funny‖. The bones that make up our bodies help us grow, and allow us to move. When you think about it, our bones are really wonderful. Title Introduction Main body Wonderful _____66_____ You have more than 200 bones when you _____67_____ up.

How are you ? I’m writing to introduce my school to you.
My school starts at 8 a.m. and has a lot of after-school activities. There is a beautiful garden in my school. We can hear the birds sing and smell the flowers. Every morning students read books there .
In our school there’s a Wild Animals Club. We know a lot about the wild animals there. They lose their living areas because people want to have more space for farms and buildings. Also, people kill them for their fur and bones. As a result, they are in danger now. Animals are our friends. If we don’t take action, there will be none left. we shouldn’t buy or sell wild animals.//The government should make laws to protect them.
Our school life is colourful. I like my school very much.
I hope you can come and visit my school. Please email me soon. Love, Wang Tao
