underlying disharmony, by measuring the pulse, inspecting the tongue, skin, and eyes, and looking at the eating and sleeping habits of the patient as well as many other things. in traditional chinese

chinese philosophies, religions and legends. styles that focus on qi manipulation(运气) are called internal (内家拳), while others that concentrate on improving muscle and cardiovascular（心血管的） fitness are

grandchildren.老年人为孙子孙女们操很多心。,10.unlike the destructive dragon of the west, the chinese dragon was benevolent, provided it was treated with respect. 与西方暴虐的龙不同，中国的龙是仁慈行善的，受人尊敬。句中provided为连词，也可写做provided

pounds a day. 只要账户存款足够，每天可提取不超过100英镑。,vi. exercises,1. answering the following questions according to the passage.
