Its name is from the nine villages in the valley（山谷）. In the photo which was taken by my father in Jiuzhaigou, you can see the mountains are covered with thousands of trees. The trees in the lower part of the mountain are different from the ones in the higher part. So we can see many kinds of trees on the same mountain. The colour of the lakes there is very beautiful.

Do you fail every time you try losing weight? Why? Lets listen to the prayer(祷告) of a fat man. You might learn something from it. Oh, God, thank you for listening to my prayer tonight.

And you know I have to prepare for that big meeting before lunch. I had better not skip breakfast because I will need lots of energy for my speech. After lunch I should meet Harvey for coffee because he has some information I need and I will probably eat a big dinner with him. Maybe I will skip lunch and jog during my whole lunch hour. The problem is that if I go for a run at lunch I will sweat, and there is no place for me to take a shower. So one little cheeseburger wont hurt me. I promise that I will come home after work. I will do sit-ups, and pushups and eat just a salad for dinner. As you know it is dangerous to go out at night in this neighborhood, so I will go to bed instead of going out for a run.( )66.

How does a Fat Man Lose Weight?(C)we can say pandas are lucky because people around the world love them and are trying to help them. However, pandas are also unlucky since they are facing a lot of difficulties now. Pandas are not good at making babies. Even in the wild, scientists have found that female pandas give birth only every 28 months. Thats why the number of pandas is going up so slowly. Pandas need bamboo for food. But bamboo plants slower and die every 10 to 100 years. It can take up to 20 years to provide food for pandas. When bamboo dies, pandas have to move to other areas. In the past, this was easy. But the population is increasing（增长）, and people have cut more forests and they have built more villages. Its more difficult for pandas to find bamboo and homes. So WWF has made great efforts to protect pandas. And some Chinese scientists are also trying to find ways to help pandas. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。71. Why are pandas lucky?A. Because they look like bears.B.
