    Her life looks like one straight out of a fairy tale. Li Ziqi impresses millions with her videos. The things she made are from dyeing a dress with fresh grape juice to fashioning traditional lipstick, from roses in her garden to searching on horseback in order to prepare one pretty meal after another.

    She has some 50 million fans in China and another 8 million overseas.

    So she remains a mystery to many of the fans. But now, she's ready to open up to us.

    To find Li, we had to travel to rural Sichuan Province in southwestern China. Li grew up with her grandparents here. In 2012, she decided to return to the countryside to take care of her grandmother.

    She started filming her life there in 2016. The dishes she prepares range from a single condiment to detailed multi﹣course meals. But whatever she makes, she leaves no stone unturned, going as far as raising baby ducklings just to make a sauce out of salted duck eggs.

    Apart from food, she's also known for her videos presenting traditional crafts, like building this bamboo furniture set.

    Li's videos have attracted a lot of young people's attention in China's big cities. But some viewers have been doubting the truth of her videos and her life.

    Li says she now works with one videographer and one assistant, but she's still the one calling the shots. But today, three years after she first picked up the camera, Li is one of China's most successful online video makers.

I am used to traveling by car a lot. I think traveling by car has many advantages（优点）.

There is no need to hurry up for the train or bus. You could wake up whenever you want and drive as for as you want.

You need to make plans only several days before you start your journey. You can stay longer if you like the place and leave earlier if you don't.

Traveling by car may save money for you as you can buy food in the supermarkets in the countryside. There things are much cheaper. You can cook food by yourself as you may bring an electric oven(电烤炉) and camp in the outside.

Many places of interest are far away from the city center. The public transport(公共交通) may not be so convenient. Cars allow you to visit as many places of interest as you want and you will spend much less money traveling by car.

You may take more things with you. When traveling by car you can take everything you might need. You can take a small refrigerator(冰箱), so that you will have cold drinks whenever you want. You can bring an electric oven to cook. You can also take clothes for mountain climbing.

（2）Will you choose to travel by car if you have a chance (机会)? Why or why not?(理由不少于5个单词)

People all need friends because nobody wants to be lonely and a friend can help you in good and bad times. You've made friends since childhood, but you still don't know who your true friends are.

Always honest

Honesty is important to keep a relationship alive. It may be hard sometimes but lying can destroy a friendship. It is important that your friend speaks honestly and never makes up stories.

Always there for you

There are always periods in your life when you have problems or difficulties. A true friend will always have time to listen to your problems and give advice. It may not be able to solve your problems but the fact that your friend made time to listen is a sign he/she cares for you. You also need to accept that your friend also has other things to do so he/she can't always listen to your problems at once.

Always respectful(尊敬的）

A true friend will always respect your opinion no matter whether he/she agrees or not.

Always understanding

A true friend will always be forgiving and understanding, even if it isn't his/her fault. We are all different people and we all make mistakes. A true friend is always forgiving and understanding because he/she doesn't want to take the risk of losing his/her best friend.

A. Your friend is not a true one if he/she can never make time for you when you are in trouble.

B. In order to help you, a friend may not tell you the truth.

C. Here are some signs to tell you if your friend is a true friend:

D. Your true friend may disagree but never insists(坚持）that he/she is correct.

E. It is possible that some problems will appear between you and your friend.

F. A true friend always tells you the truth.

There are people who learn languages well, but that has nothing to do with them being naturally good at it. It has to do with their attitude(态度) and the way they learn.

. Good language learners face the fear of making mistakes. They do experiments and take risks. For example, trying out different ways to memorize the words until finding a way that suits them best.

. You may already have heard or read about learning styles. The idea is that everyone has a style of learning that suits them best. You want to find out how you learn most easily and use it for language learning.

They do not expect to learn English only by sitting in the classroom. They are organized and active. They look for creative ways both inside and outside the classroom to try out what they have learned.

. They know that learning a language means learning the culture as well. They learn how to behave in stores and restaurants, or how to talk with strangers.

. They pay attention to different learning means. They have good skills to practice listening, speaking, reading, and writing. They push themselves to express and look for chances to talk with native speakers.

What is life's greatest gift? It is choice. Choice is the ability to choose some actions from a set of things to achieve a goal. The reason is that it turns us from dumb animals into artists. Choice becomes the tool we use to sculpt our life. The tool doesn't come free, however, for the price of choice is responsibility. It is enjoyment.

Choice is power. Choice is at the heart of life. It's the creative power of life. Life is always changing and we have to make lots of choices. We often need to check where we are on our journey. We need to ask questions: Am I moving closer to my goals? If not, what action will I take now to make myself realize my goals?

And our life becomes more convenient or comfortable because of them. For example, you decide which stores to shop at and which bus station to go to. But the decisions that we make to sculpt our life are much more important than deciding where to shop. The more we understand the difference between small and big decisions, the more pleasure we will get.

Life is like a chess game. All chess lovers realize that it isn't necessary to win to enjoy the game. Make the best moves you can under the conditions. Then you can enjoy your life.

What's the Deal with Sleep

    You go to bed at night, close your eyes, and go to sleep. Actually, when you fall asleep, you go through the four stages of the sleep cycle. Let's explore what happens.

    Stage 1. When you feel yourself becoming sleepy. Your muscles begin to relax and your brain activity slows down. Your eye movements are slow. It lasts several minutes and you can be woken up easily.

    Stage 2. you won't wake up easily. The slow eye movements continue and your brain waves slow down even more. Your body temperature goes down and your heart rate slows down.

    Stage 3 is known as deep sleep. It's more difficult for you to be woken up. So all those sleepwalkers out there may not actually remember doing anything strange in their sleep the next day.

    Finally, you move into REM( rapid eye movement). This is caused by certain brain activity. You may have vivid dreams during this stage. Your waves are more active, and they're similar to when you're awake. It's easier to wake you up, but you may feel sleepy.

    Once your REM phase is over, the cycle starts all over again. Stage 1 and 2 are considered light sleep, while Stage 3 is deep sleep. You'll go through about four or five of these cycles each night, depending on how long you sleep.

A Better Way to Start Your Day

Whether you love mornings or not, they're a fact of life. If you hate them, here are some ways to make them less awful. If you're a morning person, these tips can make mornings even better!

Be sure to get an adequate(足够的) amount of sleep. Most people need seven or eight hours of sleep to feel their best during the day. If you must get up at 5 or 6 a. m. , go to bed early to get your eight hours. Turn off the TV, computer or smartphone and hit the hay. When you get enough sleep, you won't feel sleepy. You can get out of bed on tine. That will make your day better, too.

Turn on some music in the morning. Play any tune you like. It doesn't matter. . You'll feel much happier as you start the day.

As your mother said, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Your body is out of fuel(燃料)by morning. You need some to help you control your blood- sugar. That affects your mood(情绪)and energy for the day.

Don't watch TV or read a newspaper first thing in the morning. Your brain is fresh and ready to work on new things. Don't fill it up with negative(消极的) information about the world and its problems. Instead, read

something inspiring(鼓舞人的)or uplifting.

Avoid answering QQ or weChat first thing. Use that precious(宝贵的) morning time to get some exercise, at breakfast and enjoy life. Check QQ or WeChat last before you leave your house. Then you'll only have time to heck the most important messages.

Every day is a new day—enjoy it!
