We don't normally see our bones(骨头), so we probably don't think about them much. But your bones help your body in important ways.
There are more than two hundred bones in your body, and all of these bones have important jobs. One group of bones holds your body up. Among these bones are the leg bones and the backbone. Without these bones, you would not be able to stand up or sit up.
The shoulder bones and the bones in your upper(上部的) body give your body its shape. At the same time they protect(保护) the heart and other parts of the body that are inside them. The bone in your head does the same thing for the brain. It is strong, and it keeps your brain from being hurt.
And the bones in your body, of course, help you to move and do things. But they can't make it without the help of the muscles(肌肉). Muscles cover them, keep them fixed and make them join at the joints(关节) strongly.
Your bones also help your body in another very important and surprising way. The center of some bones has a soft, white material. It is in this material that new red blood cells(细胞) are made. Red blood cells, of course, are very important for keeping us alive.
All of these things that the bones do make them truly amazing parts of the human body. So please take care of your bones. Once they are broken, it will take you at least 100 days to recover from it. That's nothing fun!
