Read the following email and choose the best answer for each blank.

Dear Mr. Smith,

I am writing to express my sincere for your help and guidance this semester. Your teaching has improved my knowledge of biology and helped me grow as a student. I especially  how you always stayed after class to answer questions and explain concepts. Your advice about creating study diagrams helped me when I was preparing for the midterm exam. The research methods  you taught us are very useful, and I use them in my other science classes too. When I'm working on assignments, I often remember your tips about organizing information clearly. I hope to another one of your courses next year. Your classes have been so valuable for my education, and I'm very grateful  your support and encouragement.

Best regards,
Anna

Read the following passage then choose the best answer to each question.

A massage is relaxing, and makes you feel great, but did you know that it's also good for you? That's what doctors are now saying. Massage relieves pain and anxiety, eases depression, and speeds up recovery from medical problems.

Research has shown that people of all ages benefit from touch. Premature infants who are held develop faster than those left alone, and healthy babies who get a lot of physical contact cry less and sleep better. Touch can also slow the heart rate, lower blood pressure, and boost serotonin (a brain chemical linked to well-being). It also reduces cortisol (the stress hormone), which makes you more resilient to disease.

Massage also speeds up healing. Bone-marrow transplant patients who were given massages had better neurological function than those who weren't. Furthermore, massage reduced pain by 37% in patients with chronic muscle aches.

Giving someone a massage may be as good as getting one. According to a study by the University of Miami, depressed mothers felt better after massaging their babies, and elderly volunteers who massaged infants felt less anxious and depressed.

Even self-massage works. People with headaches felt better after massaging their temples and neck, and smokers who used self-massage while quitting felt less anxious and smoked less. 

What could be the best title for the passage?

  • Why We Should Relax?
  • Massage for Children

  • Massgage as a Medical Treatment

Research shows that premature babies who are not held tend to develop faster than those who are held.
