      One day, a mother crocodile (鳄鱼) and a baby crocodile swam slowly in a riven Suddenly, the mother crocodile saw a monkey, "Oh, a monkey! How nice if I have it for dinner!"

    "My son, can you go and get the monkey for me? I want to eat his heart," the mother crocodile said.

    "All right," the baby crocodile answered.

    The baby crocodile swam near the river bank (河岸). He shouted at the monkey, "Hey, monkey! Would you like some bananas? There are many banana trees over there on the other bank of the river."

    "I like them very much. But I can't swim. How can I get there?" the monkey asked.

    "Oh, I can take you there," the baby crocodile said.

    "Really? Thank you very much!" the monkey jumped onto the baby crocodile's back. In the middle of the river, the baby crocodile went into the water. When he came up again, the monkey was wet all over. "Don't do that again, or you'll kill me!" the monkey shouted.

    "I know, but I must do that! My mother wants to eat your heart."

    "My heart? Why didn't you tell me earlier7 I left it in a tree. We should go back for it!" So they went back.

    As soon as they got to the bank, the monkey picked up a big stone (石头) and climbed up onto the street quickly. He shouted at the baby crocodile, "Don't you want my heart? Well, catch!" The monkey threw(扔) the big stone at the crocodile.

    Do you ever wish you were as thin as a model(模特) or as strong as your favourite football player? Maybe you wish you were taller or just thinner a little. Those thoughts are a natural part of growing up.

    But learning what you can and can't change about your body is part of growing up, too. It can be hard to do. But when people accept the way they look, they often feel happier.

    Some children worry that they're not growing and developing as fast as their friends. It's important to know that puberty(青春期) doesn't happen at the same time for every child. And there are no special medicines that can make it happen sooner!

    Eating healthy foods and exercising more can make all children feel better. Why? Because they will help you feel energetic (精力充沛的) and keep your body working just the way it should be. Watching TV and playing computer games can be fun, but they don't do much for your body because you sit when you do them.

    But when you move your body—by playing, dancing, taking part in sports, or even cleaning your room—you exercise your muscles(肌肉). When you exercise the muscle, it gets stronger. And when you have strong muscles, you can do whatever you want to do!
