According to an investigation, over 45 percent of subhealthy people are mid-aged or elderly.

　　I always thought that a man who was wise and good would become rich, but this year I have learned that this is not always true. I learned this from my teacher. He is wise and good, but is not rich at all, for being a teacher, he doesn't have a good income. He may be able to get more money if he gives up teaching for business. But he is so proud of being a teacher that he takes pleasure in helping young people. He stays at school from morning till late afternoon and works very hard. He always smiles at us when we go to ask him for help. He is kinder to us than anyone whom I've ever known. I think it must be easier to learn history or maths than to learn how to become such a man. He scolds（責備）us when we do something wrong, but it teaches us to try to do better. We all wish to study with him as long as possible, but that may be impossible. Some of us may become doctors, some become businessmen, some become engineers, some become, writers, but we all want one thing very much--to become men like our teacher.
