In his dream he was walking in the forest when two men ran out and tried to throw him to the ground. He ran off as fast as he could,but they followed him. He reached a place where he saw two road in front of him,one to the right and the other to the left. Which road should he take?He heard the two men behind him, getting nearer, and at the same time he heard a voice in his ear. It told him to go to the right,and he did so. He ran on and soon came to a small hotel. He was received there kindly and given a room,and he was saved from the two men. That was the dream. Twenty years later he was really in the Black Forest and , as happened in the dream long ago, two men ran out and tried to throw him down.

Y ou’re not alone. Back experts in the United States are worried that young students are having back and neck problems as a result of carrying too much in their backpacks (schoolbags)“It hurts my back when I run,”said Oberlin Reyes, a student in Virginia. “It’s hard to go up the stairs with my backpack,because it’s too heavy,”Oberlin was among students whose backpacks were weighed for a week in a recent study. They had regular backpacks with two straps(带子)to carry them, but a number of students with heavy loads had switched to rolling backpacks (which have wheels and can roll on the ground).Shirley Park, whose backpack weighed 10 kilograms,said she changed to a rolling backpack because she was starting to have back pain.How much is too much?Experts say students should carry no more than 10 to 15 percent of their own body weight.A few students had one suggestion to lighten the load:less homework.P.S.( 附)Doctor’s suggestion:1 Lighten the load. Clean out binders(活页材料)and take home only the books you need that night.2 Wide straps are better. They send out the weight over your shoulders more evenly(均匀)。
