My most valuable possession is an old, slightly warped blond guitar--the first instrument I taught myself how to
play. It's nothing fancy, just a Madeira folk guitar, all scuffed and scratched and finger-printed. At the top is a
bramble of copper-wound strings, each one hooked through the eye of a silver tuning key. The strings are
stretched down a long, slim neck, its frets tarnished, the wood worn by years of fingers pressing chords and
picking notes. The body of the Madeira is shaped like an enormous yellow pear, one that was slightly damaged in
shipping. The blond wood has been chipped and gouged to gray, particularly where the pick guard fell off years
ago. No, it's not a beautiful instrument, but it still lets me make music, and for that I will always treasure it.

closed hand. (

The heart is a muscle and it beats about seventy times per minute throughthout a person¶s life. (




The heart pumps blood from your heart to all parts of your body. The heart is made up of four chambers or small
³rooms´. The top chamber are called the right and left auriclesand the botttom chambers are the right and left
ventricles. (


)
ÿhen blood enters the heart. It is in dark reddish color because it countains carbon dioxide. The blood enters the
right auricle and then the right ventricle. ÿhen the heart contracts, it forces the blood to the lungs where the blood
receives oxygen. It then goes to the left auricle. The heart contracts again, and the blood goes to the left ventricle
and is then forced out into the body. The blood gathers carbon dioxide and returns to the heart, and the process
begins again. (
