The next morning, I got up6. During the breakfast, you smiled and asked me if I would miss you. I pretended (假装) it was no big deal and said, "I7send you a message whenever I miss you. "

You left even before the sun rose. I waved (挥手) to you until I couldn't see you any more. And my eyes were filled with8. I later realized it was Lantern Festival. I wrote down "Waiting for you to9"in my notebook. I knew the people of Wuhan needed you more than I did.

There was a young painter who made a living by painting portraits (肖像). One day, a rich man asked him to paint a portrait for him and promised to pay him 10, 000 dollars.

After a week, the rich man came to take the painting, but he was not pleased with it. He told the young painter, "I will only pay 3, 000 dollars for this painting".

The young painter was angry. He argued with the rich man, hoping the rich man would keep his word.

The rich man thought, "The man in the painting is me. If I don't buy this painting, no one else will buy it. " So he said, "I will ask you one last time: will you sell it for 3, 000 dollars?"

The young painter said firmly (坚定地), "No. This is a shame for me! I would prefer not to sell it, rather than be humiliated by you. Someday, you will pay 20 times the cost for breaking your promise. "

After that, the painter worked hard day and night. Finally, he became well-known in the art world.

The rich man forgot about the artist and what he had told him. But one day, some friends told him, "There is a painting selling for 200, 000 dollars and the man in the painting looks exactly like you. It has a name of "Thief (贼)".

Then, the rich man remembered the artist. He quickly went to say sorry and paid 200, 000 dollars to buy the portrait. The young painter made the rich man lower his head in the end.

The traditional Chinese calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. In China, the 24 solar terms were created thousands of years ago to guide agricultural（农业的）production. But solar term culture is still useful today to guide people's lives through cultural activities and special foods that go with each term.

Great Heat, the 12th solar term of the year, begins this year on July 22 and ends on August 6. During Great Heat, most parts of China enter the hottest season of the year. Here is something you should know about Great Heat.

Great Heat is a season of harvesting (收割). During this time, the sunshine, high temperatures, and heavy rainfall are good for the plants. But many natural disasters also happen. So, it's important to harvest and plant in time.

Sending the Great Heat ship is a tradition in Taizhou. The ship is full of all kinds of meat. More than 50 fishermen take turns carrying the ship as they walk through the streets. The ship will finally be pulled out of the port and burned at sea. People believe that is a symbol of good harvests and health.

Great Heat is a season with most crickets (蟋蟀) in the countryside. Cricket fighting is popular game for some people in China during this period. The custom dates back over 1, 000 years ago.

People in different places enjoy different food. For example, in southern Shandong, people would like to drink mutton soup. Grass jelly is very popular in Guangdong because there is a saying "Eating grass jelly in Great Heat will make you stay young."

Zoology is everything about animals. And people who study it are called zoologists. They want to learn about the difference between different kinds of animals, where they come from, and how they live.

What do zoologists do?

There are many different kinds of zoologists. Some try to learn everything about one animal, and some learn about a group of animals some try to understand where new kinds of animals come from and other zoologists are interested in how animals can get sick. Many zoologists study what animals do when they are with other animals.

A famous zoologist

Charles Darwin is probably the most famous zoologist. He showed that animals are all one big family and that every kind of animal changes slowly to match the place where they live. This is called "evolution (进化)". During his life, people laughed at Darwin, saying that people and animals couldn't come from the same family However many zoologists today agree that Darwin was right.

Why is it important?

Understanding animals is important because people are animals. When we study animals, we learn about ourselves.

Do you know?

•Frogs can breathe (呼吸)without their mouths! When frogs are not in water, their bodies can take air through their skin.

•Some people say sharks never get sick, but that is not true. Sharks get sick, just like any other animal.
