In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too. But if you have questions about how tall youre going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find them out.But genes dont decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential(潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.Its natural that youre wondering how fast you should grow. Theres no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about 6 cm a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty.Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. 2 cm here and 3 cm there make a little difference to the height youre at now. How have you been growing up to this height? What other changes may your body be going through?Dont be amazed if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt(高峰) during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.Youll usually begin to notice that youre growing faster about a year after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。（1）If you want to know how tall you should grow, _. A . you should have enough exerciseB . you can ask doctors for helpC . you should take some special medicineD . you can record your growth during puberty（2）The Chinese for the word “puberty” is _.

A . what healthy diet isB . how good it is to be a doctorC . how much sleep time we needD . why genes cant decide everything（5）Which is NOT mentioned in the passage? A . Your height most probably depends on how tall your parents are.B . Girls age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boysC . You may be amazed sometimes when you grow too fast.D .
