Dear Sir，

I am writing to tell you what has happened to me recently．

Golf in the USA was until quite recently the hobby of old，middle class white men．Not any more．The fact that the class，age and race barriers that existed in the sport have finally been  broken down is due almost entirely to two people．Tiger Woods and Michelle Wie．

Tiger Woods was born in California in 1975 and is one of the greatest golfers of all time．His ethnic background is marvelously rich and varied．His father Earl was of mixed of black，Chinese and Native American ancestry and his mother Kultida，who was originally from Thailand，also had Chinese and Dutch forefathers．

Woods became a professional golfer in 1996 and，less than a year later，astonished the world easily winning the prestigious Masters Colf Tournament，an annual event which takes place at the Augusta Golf Club in Georgia，USA．At 21，he was the youngest golfer ever to win the tournament，but much more important，he was also the first Asian American to do it．

Woods’amazing achievement is put into perspective when you realize that until 1990，no non-white American had ever been allowed to join Augusta Golf Club．Even in 2000，it only had two black members．In fact，in 1977，Clifford Roberts，the chairman of the club and founder of the Masters Tournament，proclaimed：“As long as 1 am alive，golfers will be white and caddies

（球童）will be black．”Roberts died not long after making this racist remark…

Fortunately，his views were not shared by his successors（接替者）and the dramatic appearance of Tiger Woods on the Golf scene radically changed attitudes to the sport and prompted a major surge of interest in the game among ethnic minorities end young people in the USA．

Michelle Wie，a Korean American born in 1989 whose mother was an amateur golf champion in Korea，will probably became the greatest woman golfer of all time．She’s 1．85 meters tall and she can play a golf ball further than most men．Like Woods，she has transformed the world of golf，and wants to do so in even more dramatic ways．She has expressed her determination to play on the men’s tournament circuit，not just the women’s，and has already appeared in several professional men’s tournaments．

Thanks to Woods and Wie，golf in America will never be the same again．

Most schools ban chewing gum，but in a few years they might consider changing that rule．Why？ Scientists are finding evidence that gum chewing may be good for your health．It may even help boost（提高）your test scores．

This exciting research is just beginning．And in the meantime，companies are also experimenting with adding vitamins，minerals，medicines，and other substances that could give gum the power to cure headaches and fight everything from serious diseases to bad breath．

People have been chewing gum for thousands of years．Ancient Greeks，Mayas，and Native Americans，for example，chewed on the sap，or resin of certain types of trees．Today gum is a litde more complicated．Gum manufacturers start by mixing resin，wax，and a molecule called polyvinyl acetate to make a gum base．By varying the types and amounts of these ingredients，scientists can make thousands of formulations．

Just what can gum do for your health？Many studies show that chewing gum after meals fights cavities（洞）by stimulating the production of saliva．Saliva helps wash away bacteria that damage our teeth．An ingredient called xylitol，which is added to it，provides an extra dose of cavity－fighting power．This is good for more than just the teeth．Research suggests that good oral health decreases the risk of heart disease，and other serious diseases．

Chewing gum might also be good for your brain．Chewing gum boosts the flow of blood to participants’brains by 40 percent．

But too much chewing can damage the jaw joint．And chewing too much of gum that contains vitamins，caffeine，or a medicine could lead to an overdose．What’s a more，no matter how healthy gum chewing proves to be，it will never be a match for a healthy lifestyle．

Nothing like gum or a vitamin is going to cure a bad dietary habit or a bad exercise habit；it’s not a magic bullet．

64．Why are companies trying to put medicines into gum？

A．Because they want gum to cure some diseases．

B．Because they wish people to become addictive to it．

C．Because they plan to make gum more tasteful．

D．Because they hope to make gum good for teeth．

65．From the last two paragraphs，we can infer that      ．

A．chewing gum has a magic power to cure your bad lifestyle

B．chewing gum can’t  replace the healthy lifestyle

C．chewing gum can lead to a bad exercise habit

D．too much gum chewing proves to be harmful to your teeth

66．How does chewing gum fight cavities？

A．By making people brush teeth immediately after meals．

B．By killing bacteria that are harmful to our teeth．

C．By making people produce more saliva．

D．By adding some more medicines to the gum．
