　　　At the beginning of this century, medical scientists made a surprising discover: that we are built not just of flesh and blood but also of time. They were able to demonstrate that we all have an internal ‘body clock’ which regulates the rise and fall of our body energies, making us different from one day to the next. These forces become known as biorhythms: they create the ‘highs’ and ‘lows’ in our everyday life.
　　　The ideas of an internal’body clock’should not be too surprising ,since the lives of mos living thing are dominated by the 24-hour night-and-days cycle.the most obvious feature of this cycle is the way we feel tired and fall asleep at night and become awake and alert during the day.If the 24-hour rhythm is international aeroplane travelers often experience‘jet lag’when traveling across time zones.people who are not used to shift work can find that lack of sleep affects their work performance.
　　　As well as the day daily rhythm of sleeping and waking,we also have other rhythms which last longer than one day and which influence wide areas of our lives.Most of us would agree that we feelgood on some days and not so good on others.Sometimes we are all fingers and thumbs but on other days and not so good on other.Sometimes are times when we appear to be accident-prone,or when our temper seem to flow on some days but at other times are apparently nonexistent? Musicians, painters and writers often talk about‘dry spells’.
　　　Scientists have identified the following three biorhythmic cycles: physic,emotional and intellectual. Each cycle lasts approximately 28 days and each is divided into a high energy period and a low energy period of equal length. During the high period of a physical biorhythm we are most resistent to illness, better coordinated and more energetic: during the low energy period we are less resistent to illness, less well coordinated and tire more easily. The low period puts energy into our “batteries” for the next high period.

我们携着手走进林子，溪水漾着笑涡，似乎欢迎我们的双影。这道溪流，本来温柔的像少女般可爱，但不知何时流入森林，她的身体便被囚禁在重叠的浓翠中间。
早晨时她不能向玫瑰色的朝阳微笑，夜深时不能和涓涓的月儿谈心，她的明澈莹晶的眼波，渐渐变成忧郁的深蓝色，时时凄咽着忧伤的调子，她是如何的的沉闷呵！在夏天的时候。
几番秋雨之后，溪水长了几篙，早凋的梧楸，飞尽了翠叶，金黄色的晚霞从杈丫树隙里，深入溪中，泼靛的波面，便泛出彩虹似的光。
现在，水恢复从前活泼和快乐了，一面疾忙的向前走着，一面还要和沿途遇见的落叶枯枝、、、、、、淘气。
一张小小的红叶儿，听了狡狯（kuai）的西风劝告，私下离开母校出来顽玩，走到半路上，风偷偷儿的溜走了，他便一跤跌在溪水里。
