Animals, especially cats and dogs, are often kept as pets. They can be very good friends of humans. Here1two stories about them.

At Jesus College, Cambridge University, 600 teachers and students looked for a cat called Billy2for three weeks. They looked for him in their rooms and kept an eye3for him. The grey and white cat is a member of the college, and he even has dining rights (就餐权利). The head teacher asked anyone who might see the cat4the college.

In Kentucky, a dog5Jupiter was hit by a car and was hurt seriously. His owner Steve Ford looked for him for a long time, but he couldn't find him6. Then Ford7the local animal hospital a call. Then he was8to find that Jupiter had already been in the hospital. "He just9himself, I guess" Ford said. "After the accident, he ran about a mile to the hospital.10, the car didn't hurt his bones (骨头)."

One day, a rich boy bought a magic mirror (魔镜). When he got home, he looked in the mirror. His face looked sad. He tried to smile and make funny faces. His face looked still sad. Then he did many happy things, but his face always looked sad. "Oh, what a terrible mirror! It doesn't work!" he said angrily.

The next day, on his way to buy some chocolate, he saw a little girl crying sadly. The rich boy went up to her and asked what had happened. The little girl said she couldn't find her parents. "Don't worry. I'll help you," the rich boy said. So they went to look for them together. Finally, they found her parents. They were so thankful for his help. After the rich boy arrived home, he looked in the mirror as usual. To his surprise, his face looked very happy. The boy understood the magic of the mirror. The mirror could show the true feelings of its owner. This was true—the rich boy had helped that little girl, so he felt really happy.

DNA is the whole "map" of the human body. It is something that all humans have, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our parents, because we get some of the DNA to make our own.

People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Mr. Mendel discovered why we look similar to other people in our family. It is because of small things called "genes（基因）" in our body. In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that those small parts are real messages. They are written in the DNA with a special language.

In 1961, another two scientists found the first "word" that they could understand in that language. It shows how DNA tells the cell（细胞）to build its parts. So far, scientists have found all the words in the DNA map, but we do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one "word" means, we can help to save people from several illnesses. So the more we understand, the more doctors will be able to do.

Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine to help sick people. Other people worry that when we learn more "words" and find out more information, we will use in the wrong way, just to make people more attractive（有吸引力的）, or stop sick people getting jobs.

With the development of China, many traditional ink paintings(水墨画)show the changes in southern Chinese villages. Shang Xinzhou, a painter from the Guangxi Arts University, has been creating traditional ink paintings for many years. His paintings show the life in poor areas.

"Thanks to my experience in Duomai Village, I can make the paintings much lovelier," said the 36-year- old painter, who has spent two and a half years working there.

Shang's paintings show the progress in the fight againstpoverty. His works show changes from difficult local conditions and people's hard times to better conditions and happy lives.

"I like drawing people's real lives, and paintings can be a bridge for communication between the local people and me." said Shang.

During his stay, he put his paintings about the local life on the Internet to help villagers sell their products. To make the night life there richer, he sold paintings to buy street lights, so people could enjoy square dancing in the evening.

Shang's excellent works were popular in the village. "I love his paintings and they show great changes in our village," said a farmer.

In recent years, more artists have traveled to mountain villages to record the development of China's poor areas, telling stories of the country's fight against poverty. "I've seen the local poverty alleviation. I want to record the changes of the poor areas and create more works about people," said Shang.

When we get cold, sometimes our bodies start moving, even if we don't mean for them to.

Shivering (颤抖) is one of several ways the body tries to keep warm when it's cold out. In fact, your insides need to stay about the same temperature.

When your warm body meets cold air, the heat from your body flows (流动) into the air.It's like when you put a pot of water on the stove (炉子), and the hot fire warms the cold water. This time you're the fire, and the heat from your body is warming up the air around you. To make up for all the heat you're losing to the cold air, your body shivers to try to produce even more warmth.

 Your body tries to make as much heat as it can on its own. When you shiver, your muscles (肌肉) move over and over again to give off heat. And it will keep your body a little warmer. What should you do? Then you'll get warm soon.

—She is very friendly and she is always r to help others.

—OK.

—No, I haven't.
