I stole your dog today. No, I didn't set a foot on your house, but from the condition of your dog, I can imagine what it looks like...the word" rubbish" comes to my mind.
I found her along a road, with a heavy chain wrapped around her neck, still attached to rotten boards from her doghouse. Not only did I know that most of the town people had already ignored her, judging by where I found her, but I knew that if she had gotten into the woods, the "cross" that she dragged behind her would have wrapped around a tree until starvation or thirst killed her.
She has a beautiful name now. Already in the first week she has come to look more like she should. Her eyes sparkle and she has learned to wag her tail in greeting. She has stopped flinching(畏缩)when I make a sudden movement, because she knows now that I won't beat her, in fact, she rarely leaves my side. She's even become brave enough to bark at a cat and today I watched from the window as she attempted to play with the other dogs. No, it's clear that she does not miss you or her former life on a chain.
It's not clear yet whether she'll remain here or whether I'll find her a loving home where she can count on more individual attention that I can give her, but one thing is certain, this is one bit of stolen "property" who is never returning to you. So sue me, accuse me, plead with the courts that she is rightlly yours….I'm convinced this is the best" crime" I've ever committed. Hardly anything has pleased me more than the day I stole your dog. I need only look into her beautiful brown eyes to know that she'd defend my decision with her life. If we have one prayer, it is that you will not replace her, and if we have one special day to celebrate together, it is the day I stole your dog and the day she stole my heart.

Fitness isn’t just physical: Change your thoughts, and you change your world. Of course we can all agree that gaining and losing weight, exercise, diet, strength, and flexibility are all a part of fitness. But what about body image, self-esteem, aging, relationships, success and happiness? They are all related, all connected, and fitness in all areas is important if you want true and total fitness.
But you may say, “I just want to lose 20 pounds. If I do, I will feel better about myself and I will be happy.” Maybe in the short term, but honestly, if we don’t deal with our mental and emotional fitness while working on the physical fitness, there is very little chance of keeping the weight off, feeling good about yourself, and improving every other area of your life.
Let’s not waste time in changing our bodies when they will only change back if we don’t change our minds, too. Let’s work “out” and work “in” at the same time. Change your mind－and you must, because if you have been trying to lose weight, but cannot, there is something inside of you that is disallowing it. You can change this pattern, improve your self-esteem, increase your joy, and change your body for good by focusing on changing your mind, too. This is training of life.
Work-ins will recondition your mind, improve your attitude, change your perception and stimulate motivation at the same time you are conditioning your body for weight loss, shaping, strength and endurance.
If you repeat a positive statement over and over to yourself-like a mantra, your mind will change, the same way your body does, even if you don’t believe it. Like lifting a weight over and over, your muscle changes－even if you don’t believe it.
Try it－what have you got to lose? Say, “I am ready for my body to be healthier, leaner, and stronger. I love it already.” Say it over and over while you are walking or running or doing any exercise. Pick a statement that works for you－something positive and in the present tense.
60. The author will probably agree that _____________.
A. mental health is the most important in weight loss
B. working on physical fitness is sometimes harmful
C. fitness is much more than gaining or losing weight
D. lifting a weight over and over is the best way to keep fit
61. According to the passage, a positive “mantra” (in Paragraph 5) ___________.
A. changes your muscle B. helps recondition your mind
C. might cause great loss D. is something you must believe
62. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Stop Wasting Time on Weight Loss B. Health and Life Attitude
C. Work Your Mind, Not Just Your Body D. Real Training of Life
63. If work-ins can recondition your mind and improve your attitude, then work-outs probably can____
A. improve your looks B. cause you to gain more weight
C. make you more motivated D. benefit your physical reshaping
