For the next few weeks at the Museum of Zoology in Cambridge, England, people can use their mobile phones to scan (扫描) special codes (码) next to 13 animal exhibits (展览品). This will open a chat box on the visitors' phones and allow them to have a conversation with the animals. Visitors can find out more about certain animals, such as where they came from and how they were prepared for the exhibition. People can talk to animals such as whales, giraffes and red pandas: There are also some animals that are extinct, such as the dodo. Besides, the chats will show what visitors really want to know when they look at the exhibits, helping staff to improve the museum.

Jack Ashby, an assistant director at the museum, says they also wonder what influence the conversations will have on people. "We want to see whether chatting with the animals will change people's opinions about them"

"Why does Mr. Craven hate the locked garden?" Mary asked once.

"It was Mrs. Craven's garden and she loved it. She looked after the flowers together with Mr. Craven. No gardeners were allowed in."

"But what happened?" Mary asked.

"There was an old tree in the garden with a branch (树枝) like a seat, Mrs. Craven often sat there, reading and talking. One day, the branch broke and she fell down. She was badly hurt and died soon. Mr. Craven locked the garden and never talked about it."

Mary seldom felt sorry for anyone, but now she understood how sad her uncle must be.

The wind roared around the house, and the doors and windows banged. Mary listened, and through the noise she thought that she heard a child crying.

"Can you hear someone crying?" she asked Martha.

Martha seemed pretty nervous. "No," she answered. "It's only the wind or the servant who works in the kitchen. She's got a toothache. Perhaps she's crying. I'm going to check if she needs any help." After the words, Martha left the room quickly.

When Martha left her alone, Mary decided to explore the house. She went quietly along hallways and up and down stairs. In the silence of the house she heard again the sound of a child crying. She stopped to listen at a door, but then another door opened and Mrs. Medlock came out, "What are you doing here?" she said, and she took Mary by the arm and pulled her away. "Get back to your room at once."

—Adapted from The Secret Garden

When you visit a Chinese family, the host usually makes tea for you. Then he will serve you snacks like biscuits or candy. Someone in the family will also chat with you, never letting you feel lonely.

At the same time, other family members will prepare a meal for you. Chinese people treat their guests with a big meal. They always present more food than the guests can eat. On the table, the guests must be the first to eat. Perhaps one of the things that surprises a Western guest most is that the Chinese host likes to pick food for visitors, which won't happen at Western tables. The Chinese family go out of their way to make you feel at home. As you finish eating, the host usually says, "It seems that you didn't eat much. Please have more." Although you tell them you are full, they still put more food in your bowl.

Being warm and hospitable has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition. As Confucius (孔子) said thousands of years ago: How happy we are to meet friends from afar!

My interest stars began when I was eight. My aunt (take) me to a planetarium (天文馆). A guide showed us the groups of stars and told us stories about how they got (they) names. The stories were so wonderful that I wanted (learn) more about the stars. I took a course at the club. Everyone knows that the stars can (see) better when it's not cloudy, but lots of people don't realize that a bright moon also stops us seeing very much. Also, there are so many lights in the city that we have to go into the countryside to see stars (clear). I'm planning to make (video) about stars in the countryside. I (post) them online for everyone to watch. My greatest dream is to be an astronaut (宇航员) I wish I could have a space travel.

When I was in fourth grade, our teacher gave us a project. We had to write to a company and learn about the2 it made. Each student would then give a report in front of the class: I3 the Thomas A. Edison Company.

Soon after I wrote to the company, our postman sent a package to me. It contained a book about the life of Thomas Edison. How I4 reading and rereading about his inventions! The ones that interested me most

were movies, recorded sound, and the electric light. Edison became my5.

My dad noticed my interest in inventing and encouraged me. He showed me how to turn my ideas into plans and,6, into new things.

Together, my dad and I repaired radios and televisions. Once, I made a7 to repair our car. This surprised my dad so much. Later, we found a similar tool in a store. That's when I learned that8 inventors often invent similar things. It is not unusual for this to happen. I also learned that not all great ideas work. Failure is a common part of the inventing9.

As my father and I worked together, I began to10 that my dad was quite an inventor himself. His guiding hands, together with my interest in inventing, led me to become an engineer and inventor. And it was Thomas Edison who first gave me the idea and lit that bulb inside me.

Are you an "E" person or an "I" person? Do you know what I'm talking about? An "I" person is usually shy, while an "E" person is usually more outgoing. These come from the MBTI test—a personality test.

Many people are very interested in the test now. They find it useful. All of the results have four letters (字母), and there are 16 results in all. It can help people have a better understanding of their personality. A greater self-understanding can be useful in daily life, such as choosing a job or getting along with others.

However, there are also some problems. Some people take it for a second time and get different results. Some people find it difficult to answer some questions. For example, I like staying at home by myself. But I also enjoy going around with my friends. Am I an "I" or an "E"?

"Personalities can change with time, and they are not black-or-white," scientists say. You may be an "I" now but will become an "E" when you get older. Or, you can be both an "I" and an "E". Don't be too serious. You can be anyone you want to be!

Your room is your own special space. It's more than just a place for you to study and sleep. So make it fun and enjoyable to live in. But how?

Last but not least, good bedding (寝具) can bring you different sleep feelings. For example, good pillows (枕头) will relax you after a long-day work or study.

In a word, the rule of decorating your bedroom is to keep it comfortable.

A. Secondly, create space to breathe.

B. Here are some ideas to help you.

C. You can have more space for yourself.

Ants live together in big groups. Each group has a queen (蚁后), worker ants and guard ants (守卫蚁). The queen lays eggs. Worker ants find food and feed baby ants. Guard ants protect the group.

Ants are very strong. They can lift things 50 times as heavy as their own weight. Just like that a child lifts a car. How strong ants are! They work together to build theircaves, and protect their family members.

Ants help nature, too. They also help to break down (分解) dead plants and animals. These make the soil (土壤) soft and help trees, grass and other plants in nature grow well.

Ants are also famous for their clever use of natural tools. For example, they drop pieces of leaves into water like boats. Then the ants carry them back to their homes.

Ants are fascinating insects because they play an important role in our world, but some of them are in danger. So we should try our best to protect them.

One day, when Boya played the guqin by a river, a farmer passed by. He was Zhong Ziqi. Ziqi stopped and listened to the music carefully. "What wonderful music!" he said.

Boya looked at the farmer and said, "Do you know what the music is about?"

"Your music paints a story," Ziqi said, "When you played high notes, I saw eagles flying in the sky. When the notes turned low, I saw a strong river rushing."

It surprised Boya. For years, he looked for a zhiyin but failed. Here, he finally found someone who could understand his music. The two became close friends, sharing their love for nature and music.

A sad thing happened. Zhong Ziqi got sick and died. Boya thought that without Ziqi, no one else in the world could truly understand his music. So, he broke his guqin and never played it again.

This touching story of their friendship and the power of true understanding is told from generation (世代) to generation in China.
