A man lives in a small village. There is no market in his village. So he often walks for about half an hour to buy things in the town. One day, he goes to the big market to do some shopping. He spends about two hours walking around slowly in the market because there are many things. After getting all the things he needs, he gets out of the market. When he walks past a small store, he finds two boxes in it. Both of the two boxes are very beautiful and the man loves them at the first sight(第一眼). So he buys them happily.

Then he takes a taxi to get back home. But he doesn't know how to use the two boxes. He thinks for a long time and then decides to do something special. He puts all of his happiness in the yellow box and all of his unhappiness in the black box. He thinks it's funny to do that.

A few days later, the yellow box becomes very heavy, but the black box is still light(轻的). He doesn't know why. He decides to open the two boxes to find the reasons. He opens the yellow box and finds nothing. Then he opens the black box and finds a big hole(洞) at the bottom(底部).

Then he smiles to himself and says, "Happiness is for me, let sadness go."

Healthy eating doesn't just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some

advice(建议) on healthy eating.

Eat with others. It can help you to see others' healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.

Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty, sometimes you are just thirsty, you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full(饱).

Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you don't eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.

Eat healthy snacks(零食) like fruit, yogurt or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn't mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.

Don't eat dimer late. With our busy life, we always put of(推遇) eating diner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest(消化) most of the food before you rest for the next8-10 hours.

The picture on the left will tell you what a woolly mammoth looked like, They were big elephants. They lived about 10,000 years ago. Now scientists(科学家) want to bring them back to life.

Woolly mammoths could be up to 3.5 meters tall. They had small ears and long hair. They could live in very cold places.

Scientists will use gene technology(基因技术) to do the job. In the past, people found dead(死的) woolly mammoths in Siberia. And scientists got DNA from them.

They will combine (混合) the woolly mammoth DNA with an Asian elephant DNA, so the new mammoth will look like the woolly mammoth and also the Asian elephant. Scientists will call it a "mammophant".

Scientists say they can make the manmophant embryo(胚胎) two years later. So ________________.
