Bad teeth，a heavier body．．．a(chǎn)nd now，weaker bones（骨頭）．Recently American scientists have found another bad thing about cola--it's bad for our bones，especially women's bones．

Well，if cola is bad for us，how about energy drinks（功能飲料）? Energy drinks look cool．Their makers say they give you energy and make you better at sports．So，many students drink them before exams to help them stay awake．

But wait．To keep you awake，most energy drinks have a lot of caffeine（咖啡因）．They are like a strong cup of coffee or tea．If you drink a lot of them，Your heart will beat faster．You will feel nervous．You could also have sleeping problems and find it hard to live without them．Amanda Smith is a 16-year-old US junior high school student．She drinks one or more energy drinks every day．She started to do this a year ago before she danced．But now，Smith says，“I drink them whenever I feel weak or before a test．I cannot help drinking them．I find I'm addicted to them．”

The energy you get from the drinks helps for only a short time．You may feel good for an hour or so，but then you'll feel worse than before．

　　Light and shadow are friends. They usually go together. We receive light every day. At the same time, we produce shadow.

　　Light cannot shine through you. Your body stops it from passing. There is a dark spot on the ground next to you. The light cannot reach the dark spot. This is your shadow. At noon the sun shines over your head. Your body stops very little light from reaching the ground. So you shadow is quiet short.

　　But in early morning or late afternoon the sun is low in the sky. Its light moves over more of your body. Then your shadow is quite long. Your body keeps a lot of light from reaching the ground.

　　We love light, especially sunlight. Without sunlight, life on earth is impossible. Most of us like to stand in the shadow of a tree in summer. But some people are afraid of their own shadow at night. They do not want to walk in a dark street. They do not want to see the shadow, either. But still light and shadow usually go together.
