A terrible rainstorm in October damaged (破坏) Taylor's hometown badly. She and her friend went back to 1 their homes. They spent hours looking for useful things on the 2 ground. During this time, she 3 some family photos that did not belong to them. She 4 them on the river bank. They hoped they could be returned to their owners.

Taylor thought about the 5 and couldn't sleep that night. She was afraid that if it 6 or blew hard again, the photos would be 7 forever. The next day, she went back 8 and found more — about 200 photos! She realized that these photos were very 9 to their owners.

Now she had so many 10 family photos and she made an online page called "Photos from Helene". It acted as a lost-and-found on the 11 . She hoped people would 12 the photos on her page and help 13 them to the right owners.

The work is truly meaningful for Taylor. In one case, a mother recognized her lost son in a photo. When Taylor handed the photo back and gave her a hug, the mother cried. She said this photo helped her family 14 the terrible loss. It encouraged her to be strong, to face 15 bravely and to rebuild her life.

Everyone feels stressed sometimes. Whether it's because of schoolwork, family, or just bad days, stress is a part of life. But don't worry! Here are some simple suggestions to help you out.

·

The first step is to know why you feel bad. Is it your homework? Is it a fight with a friend? Or is it your lost bike? To find out, try keeping a diary. Write down what happens when you feel stressed. This helps you see the problem clearly.

·Change your thinking

Our thoughts decide our feelings. When something bad happens, don't think I can't do it. . Look at the bright side of things. Always believe you can win. These help you stay positive and find solutions.

·Move your body

Exercise is a great way to beat stress. You don't need to run a marathon (马拉松). Just walking for 30 minutes every day can make a big difference. . As a result, it helps you keep away from stress.

·Talk to someone

Do not keep your stress to yourself. . You can call a friend, talk to your parents, or find a teacher you trust. Sometimes, just sharing your problem is like cutting it in half.

·Ask for expert help

If you feel very sad for a long time and cannot feel better by yourself, it is okay to ask a doctor for help. They can give you special tools to understand your feelings better. .

Remember, hard times don't last long. By using these suggestions, you can become stronger and happier!

Across China, wind turbines (风力涡轮机) now stand on hills. They also stand in deserts and near the coast. Long lines carry power from windy western areas to busy cities in the east. Last year, China added more wind power than other countries put together. Chinese companies are also selling more machines to other countries.

This plan looks very smart. For China, clean energy is not only about protecting nature. It is also about keeping the country safe. If the country gets more power from winds and the sun, high oil prices will not hurt it much.

But wind farms take a long time to build. Solar panels (太阳能板) can go up fast. However, wind farms need a strong base. They need a windy place and good weather. Also, we need long lines to send power to cities. Sea wind farms are even harder to build. But they can give cheap power to more and more places.

As wind farms grow, new challenges also appear. For example, the parts of old turbines are very large and hard to reuse. To solve this, Chinese companies are finding better ways to use these old parts again. This makes wind power truly green from start to finish.

Although there are some problems, clean energy is still a top goal for China. Wind power gives us cleaner power. It also helps mitigate the energy cost and protects national safety. It makes sure our lights stay on in hard times.

Melbourne climber Bianca Adler has become the youngest Australian to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma. The 18-year-old student reached the world's highest mountain on Wednesday morning. This success made her a record-breaking climber.

Last year, Bianca tried to climb the mountain but failed. Bad weather forced her to turn back just 400 meters from the top. This year, she did not give up. Her mother, Fiona, shared the good news. She said Bianca sounded a bit tired but very happy on the radio. Bianca told her parents that she felt good, though it was very cold and windy at the top.

Safety was very important for this trip. To avoid the long line of people and getting cold in the line, Bianca started her final climb in the dark. Her mother explained that this was a small price to pay for a safe and successful climb. Being there early meant she could climb at her own speed and stay warm.

Bianca is an experienced climber. She is already the youngest woman to climb two other famous mountains, Manaslu and Ama Dablam. On her way to the top of Qomolangma, she faced a dangerous area called the Khumbu Icefall. Because of other dangers there, climbers had to wait at the base camp (大本营). Bianca used this waiting time wisely. She climbed a nearby (附近的) mountain and slept on the top to help her body get used to the thin air.

After reaching the top, she took some photos and started to go down quickly. At the time of writing, she was resting safely at Camp 4. Her mother reminded everyone that climbing down is also a hard challenge.

A woman in New Brunswick is helping hundreds of children experience one of the best parts of summer: the freedom of riding a bike with friends around the community.

For the past 14 years, Krista Richard has been collecting donated bicycles, repairing them, and giving them away for free through her program, Bikes and Trikes for Everyone, in Moncton, Canada. It started as a simple act of kindness and now it has helped thousands of kids get back outside, make friends, and create lasting memories (记忆).

This year alone, Krista says she set a new personal record by giving away 88 bikes in a single day. Last year, more than 400 bikes found new homes.

Krista believes bikes do much more than provide fun. She says they help bring communities back together. "With all these video games, there's no social communication and people don't know who their neighbors are anymore," Krista told the CBC. "But if you get a group of kids on their bikes, then they get to know each other and then the families get to know each other. I think the more time you spend outside, the better."

And the need continues to grow. More than 400 children are on the waiting list at present.

For Krista, the effort is well worth it when she sees the smiles on a child's face. "I had one little boy… he got on it and he didn't want to go home," she said. "Every time he'd go by me, he would say, ‘You do a good job, you do a good job.'"

Li Junyong, chicken chop seller in Jingdezhen, suddenly became popular online last month. He was famous for his warm and funny (word).

It was raining heavily as David drove home on a quiet road. Suddenly, the car pulled to the side with a loud noise—a flat tire (轮胎). Although David could use special car tools to drive,1 illness made it impossible for him to change the tire. How he wished there were someone to2 him!

Through the rain, David noticed a farmhouse light not far away. He started the car and moved slowly towards the3. When he shouted, a girl came out.

"What's the matter?" she asked4 the car window. David showed his walking stick. "I can't fix the tire."

"Please don't be5. We will help you. Just wait here." After a while, she returned with an old man in a raincoat.

Warm and dry in his car, David watched them work. Ten minutes later, their clothes were all wet. "Why so6?" he thought, checking his watch impatiently.

Metal sounds were heard as the girl said, "Here's the tool, Grandpa!" The car lifted up.7, the tire was fixed after about an hour.

They came to the window8 everything was done. The old man smiled. "All fixed! My granddaughter said you use a stick. No need to9 it."

David still offered money, but the girl stopped him. "Grandpa can't10."

David's face turned red. A blind man and child11 his car in the storm? He remembered their cold, wet12 searching for tools in the dark—a darkness that the old man lived with every day.

After they walked away, David still sat in his car, without any words. How could he be so impatient? That night, the old man didn't just fix his car; he showed David13 to see with his heart and help a stranger.

Now David makes a14: Help anyone in need, not because he has to, but because that15 old man taught him. True help comes not from eyes, but from hearts.

In a classroom in Wenzhou, Alex, a student, and his teacher, Frank, talked about the upcoming autumn break (秋假).

Alex: Mr. Frank, could you tell us the exact dates?

Frank: Of course, Alex. I'm happy to tell you. ________ It's from November 17th to 19th. With the weekend, it makes a perfect five-day holiday.

Alex: Wonderful! ________

Frank: That's a good question. I suggest you spend more time outdoors. For example, you could take a walk in a park and observe the changing leaves, or even collect some for a nature craft (手工艺品) project. Visiting a museum with your parents is also an excellent idea to learn about history and culture. The key is to be curious and engaged (参与的) with the world around you.

Alex: What should we pay special attention to during the break?

Frank: I'm glad you asked. Safety is the most important thing. You must always put safety first. ________ Do not take any risks. Remember, a great holiday is a safe holiday. We all want you to return with happy memories.

Alex: Thank you for the reminder. ________

Frank: Don't worry. There won't be much. We believe a true break is important for everyone. For example, you might be asked to read a book you enjoy or write down something interesting you see during the break. The main goal is for you to relax, recharge (恢复精力), and come back refreshed. So, go and have a proper holiday. Just remember to stay safe and have fun!

①Have you ever been doing something you like, and then noticed that a long time has passed? Have you ever been so focused (专注的) on a task that you stopped noticing what was happening? If you answered yes, you've probably experienced a special state of mind known as "flow".

②Flow happens when you are completely focused on an activity. The key is to find a good balance (平衡). If the activity is too easy, you might get bored. If it is too hard, you might feel stressed. Just imagine a student who solves a difficult maths problem without noticing the noise around them. He is experiencing flow.

③When you are in flow, several things happen. You pay close attention, and outside distractions (干扰) seem to disappear. Time may feel like it passes very quickly. You also stop caring about what other people might think and put all your attention into what you are doing. This state is not just about trying hard to focus; it feels smooth and almost easy, as if what you are doing and your mind are working together.

④How can we enter flow faster? Here are some easy steps. First, find a quiet place with few distractions, like a library or a quiet room. Next, set a clear goal and keep your choices simple—for example, when writing, just focus on the main idea. Then, do one thing at a time. Don't check your phone while working—this helps you stay focused. Also, make sure you rest when you're tired. Taking short breaks helps you keep your energy up. When you follow these steps, it becomes easier to get into flow and enjoy what you're doing.

①The Torch (火把) Festival is a traditional celebration of the Yi people in China. It takes place around the 24th or 25th day of the sixth month of the Yi calendar, which usually falls in July or August. The festival lasts three days and is known for its lively atmosphere.

②According to the legend (传说), the festival honors a hero named Atilaba. Long ago, he used torches made from pine trees to drive away a plague of locusts (蝗虫) and save the crops. To celebrate this victory, people light torches every year. Another tale says the torches were used to scare off evil spirits and bring good luck.

③During the festival, families get together for feasts and activities over three days. On the first day, people clean their homes, wear new clothes, and offer food to their ancestors. In the evening, they light torches and walk around their houses and fields. The second day is the most exciting. After enjoying a special festive dinner with relatives, people wear fine clothes to watch or join in horse racing, wrestling, bullfighting, and dancing. A beauty contest is also held. At night, big bonfires (篝火) are lit, and people dance around them. On the final day, everyone gathers their torches into one large bonfire, sharing traditional food one last time. This is a way to send off the festival and wish for happiness.

④Today, the Torch Festival is not only a time for joy but also an important cultural event. Every year, many tourists visit Liangshan in Sichuan to join the celebration, enjoying special foods like diced meat and buckwheat cakes.

"No more phone!" My dad shouted at the dinner table. I was mad too. That started our big argument (争吵).

I felt it was not fair. I knew they worried about my study and eyes. But every time I looked up from homework, I saw Mum watching videos or Dad reading news on his phone. When I talked to them, they often just said "hmm" without looking up. Why could they always use phones, but my short break was called "addicted (上瘾的)"?

One evening, after studying hard, I picked up my phone to relax. Dad took it away, saying I wasted time. I shouted, "You use your phones all day too!" We had a quarrel. I ran to my room, crying. I felt lonely. It seemed the phones took my parents away.

Things changed during a weekend breakfast. Mum saw a message about my exam on her phone and sighed, "I want you to focus."I felt brave and said calmly, "I feel lonely when we're all on our phones. Can we have dinner without them? I want to talk to you." My voice was shaking.

Mum put her phone down. Dad did too. "You're right. We were not fair." Mum said. Dad agreed they needed better rules. My anger turned into hope. We made "Family Phone Rules": no phones during meals or before bed. Everyone must follow them, even parents.

Now, our home is different. We talk, laugh, and listen to each other. I learned a lesson: sometimes, the most important thing is to feel understood.
