    Spring is a good time to take a trip. Do you know what kids in different countries do during their trips?

    In China, when spring comes, students have difficultiesquietly. They want to be outside. Teachers know this. In spring, schools usually organize a spring outing for kids. Itbe a trip to a mountain. But typically teachers take kids to a martyrs park (烈士陵园) They can enjoy spring and also show their memory for those whotheir lives in war.

    In Japan, things are a little. The school year begins in April. In some parts of the county, the day of school is also the start of the cherry blossom (樱花) season. This is the time of the year for kids to take a trip. People go to parks early in the morning with their family and friends.

    The children in the UK have many great  when it comes to school trips. They can visit the seaside or a theme park. One special place to go is a wetland (湿地) and bird center The kids would like to spend their time in a beautiful place and also learn about theworld. The people at the center are scientists. This means they're able to teach kids about theof nature. They also find out how some animals today are danger.

    It's summer. Stay away from the hot sun. Come to our Indoor Water Park to feel cool. You'll have a wonderful time here.

    Here we offer more than twenty kinds of water slides (滑道) for you to experience adventure. You can play with your friends or family in the pool just like in the real sea. We also have many performances and sometimes you can play with the actors.

    It is necessary to learn how to communicate with people from other cultures to build good relationships with them. Here are some rules.

    A little knowledge can be helpful. Before meeting with someone from another culture, try to take time to learn the basic "dos and don'ts" of that culture.

    Each culture has its own values, beliefs and prejudices (成见). You shouldn't judge people based on these differences. Instead, respect them for what they are. You may even learn something new.

    Don't shout at others. Raising your voice doesn't make you easier to understand. Communication difficulties lie in cultural differences, not because of intelligence (智力).

    Some cultures may expect more physical contact between people. For example, some cultures may shake or touch hands more readily than others. So don't take it as impolite.

    Communicating with people from other cultures can be enlightening (使人领悟的) and useful, but also have its difficulties. Expect that not everything will come out quite right or be fully understood. Be patient with others, and ask them to be patient with you.

    There once was a wise man who was very respected for his wisdom. This great man was called the Wise Circle Maker. His people believed that he had special powers to make it rain.

    But the Wise Circle Maker did not know everything about life often, when he saw things that he did not understand, he would ask questions, hoping to find the answers.

    One day, he noticed a man panting a fruit tree. He asked the man, "When will this tree bear fruit? How long will it take?"

    The man said that it would take 70 years for fruit to come to the tree.

"And how old are you now?" asked the Wise Circle Maker.

    "I am almost 50 years old" replied the man.

"And do you think you will live to taste the fruit from this tree?" asked the Wise Circle Maker.

    "I am already old and will never taste the fruit from this tree I plant. But when I was born, I saw many fruit trees like this planted by my father, and his father. And I ate the fruit from those trees." replied the man.

    "This tree is for my children, my grandchildren and for their children too. They will taste the fruit of this tree. That is why I am planting it not for me, but for them."

The Wise Circle Maker was impressed. He could easily see the meaning He walked away happily, knowing that he still had much to learn about life.

    If you're not feeling well or have a fever, a mask is also needed to prevent you from spreading illness to others.

    ⒉Wash your hands more often

    Before eating and after using the restroom.

    After touching trash or rubbish.

    After returning home.

    ⒊Do sports properly

    Doing sports is one of the most important ways to help you keep away from NCP.

    ⒋Keep the air fresh

    Open the windows or doors to make the fresh air in.

    Avoid going to crowded places such as hospitals, train stations and airports. .

    For most of us, the days are divided into day and night. But for two months each winter in Northern Norway (挪威), it's dark for 20 hours a day. There is no sunrise or sunset because the sun never gets above the horizon (地平线) .

    Would you like to live in darkness for this long? It may seem difficult, but many people in Norway love the beautiful colors of these months.

    To the south are the red and gold colors of the horizon. To the north, the sky is a special blue. Even the moon and the stars look blue. In the towns, the lights in the streets shine like little yellow diamonds.

    People do need light to be healthy and happy. Since they don't have much daylight during this time of the year, they exercise and eat foods with vitamins (维生素) A and D, people usually get energy from being in the sun.

    And darkness doesn't stop people there from having a good time. Each winter, some people are skiing on hills and skating on ponds that are lit up. Others are going to film and music festivals And other people are spending time with friends in cafes and restaurants. Of course, not everyone is so active in the dark months. Many people are just going to sleep a little earlier until the sun returns in spring.

    A teenage boy couldn't stand his parents' family rules, so he left home.

    He didn't find a job, and he had to beg (乞讨) for food on the street for a living. Years later his mother died. Though his father was old, he was still looking for his son. Everywhere he went, he put up a big photo of himself on the wall It said, "I still love you, my dearest son. Please come back home!"

    One day, the son saw one of the photos. The face on the photo was just his father's He moved closer and read the words, "I still love you. Tears ran down his face He made up his mind to go back to see his parents.

    It was an early morning when he got home. He knocked on the door. Nobody answered, but the door opened itself He rushed to his father's bedroom. "It's me! Your son is back home!" They held each other happily. "Why is the door unlocked? A thief could get in." The father answered in a soft voice, "The door has never been locked since you left. I'm always waiting for you."

    The door of parents' love for their children will never be closed.
