Look, this is the vegetable garden. You can see carrots, tomatoes and potatoes. I like tomatoes very much. They are big and juicy (多汁的). In labour class (劳动课), we are little farmers. We can water and pick the vegetables. It's fun. We can also buy them in a cheap price (价格). One tomato is two yuan. The potatoes and carrots are one yuan each (每个).

There are also many animals. We have twelve rabbits, fifty hens, five cows and fifteen horses. We can feed (喂) rabbits with carrots. We can also milk the cows and make a house for the hens. Then we can get fresh milk and eggs. And we can ride horses in PE class. It's so cool.

A study2 that if people watched an average of six hours of TV a day, they lived about 4.8 years less than3 who didn't watch any television. Also, people over the age of 25 lose 22 minutes of life for each hour of TV they watch.

Most people know that sitting in front of the television isn't4. The more TV you watch, the less physically active you are. And the5 exercise you get, the more chances you have to get into diseases and heart problems.

The study came out in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. Lennert Veerman is the main author (作者) of the study. Veerman says watching too much TV will lower life expectancy (平均寿命) even6 people have a good diet.

Kristen Tapping, a student from London South Bank University, has invented a bike wheel that can help clean pollution in the air. It's called Rolloe.

The wheel uses fins (尾翼) to pull in air as it turns. It then uses filters (过滤器) to take in polluted air and give off clean air back into the environment. The wheel can filter more air if it goes faster, although it still works at low speeds (速度).

Tapping said users would need to change the filter every week or after about 250 kilometers, to make sure the wheel continues to work well. The wheel fits in the front of a standard (标准的) bike and weighs about one kilogram.

Tapping said she was encouraged to create the wheel when she was biking around London. "In traffic, you always notice the pollution, the heat, the gases and the smell," she said. She predicts that if 10 percent of the riders in London had a Rolloe on their bike, they could filter about 266,865 m³ of air a day, although this has yet to be tested.

A recent report shows that London's health costs because of air pollution are the highest among all the European cities. The World Health Organization (WHO) has also said that outdoor air pollution causes about 4.2 million deaths around the world each year.

Tapping wants to use the wheel on shared bike projects at first, with the aim of making the wheels available for all bikes to use. She says she would also like to create a wheel that would fit in the back of a bike, as well as making them available in different sizes.

It works as a pun (双关语) . As "upside down" in Chinese sounds like "arrive", so its meaning is "Fortune arrives (at your home) "—a New Year greeting to the household.

So where don't people hang the Chinese character fu upside down? On the front door!

The front door is the entrance to the household. It's where good fortune can be invited into the house. In Chinese culture, it's a place that needs to be respected. An upside-down posting of fu on the front door is unnecessary and impolite.

In the past, we commonly saw the word fu put upside down on the shelves, on the bins and on some big urns (壶, 缸) that may be full of anything from food to water. Do you know thecausation? That's because we use the rice vat (桶, 盆) , the water vat and trash bins to pour things out. In order not to pour the fortune out, people hang the Chinese character fu upside down. And the shelves are used to store things, so the upside-down fu shows fortune can come, too.

Now it's not necessary for us to know about the true meaning of hanging the Chinese character fu upside down clearly. We just regard it as one of the most important parts of our traditional culture.

It's OK to ask your friends or someone you know well direct questions. But they can seem abrupt (唐突的) and impolite at times, especially when you are asking a stranger. For example, if you come up to someone and ask "What time is it?" or "Can you move?", he/she may refuse to help you. It is certainly correct to ask questions in this way, but it's very common to make these kinds of questions more polite by adding "Excuse me" or "Pardon me" to begin your questions. "Excuse me, when does the bus leave?" or "Pardon me, may I sit here?" sounds more polite.

It's also possible to use "can" in more informal (非正式的) situations. In the past, "can" was not used when asking for something, but only to refer to abilities. In the United Kingdom, Cambridge University publishes (出版) English teaching materials with the phrase "Can you lend me", "Can I have", etc. In the United States, this form is often considered less formal, especially in written English, and "May I have" is preferred. Questions with "can" are made more polite by using "could": "Pardon me, could you help me?"

"Would" can also be used to make questions more polite. "Would you let me borrow your pencil?" is also polite.

Another way of making direct questions more polite is to add "please" at the end of the questions. We can say, "Could you help me, please?" "Please" is usually placed at the end of a request in informal speech, though it can also appear at the beginning in more formal or particularly polite contexts.

However, the news I came across online touched my heart and changed my mind. A little girl from Jieyang, Guangdong, was practicing the lion dance when a professional lion dance performance team passed by. As soon as they saw the girl practicing, they started to beat drums and gongs (锣) for her and quickly she did a lion dance in return. People around all cheered for her. Her love for the ancient Chinese culture brought back my strong memories of paper cutting.

I remembered the happy times of making paper cuttings with my teacher and friends in the club. When I was ten, I joined the paper cutting club. Every Monday and Friday, I learned to make paper cuttings there. Our teacher, Ms. Li, was very talented. With a pair of scissors and a piece of paper, she could create lively works. That amazed us. And we learned much from her. Together, we created lots of works. They covered many topics, including animals, flowers and things about Chinese history. Every time we held a paper cutting show, our works attracted (吸引) many visitors. The girl in the news encouraged me to go on with paper cutting. I want to be an inheritor (继承者) of the ancient Chinese culture. Together with other inheritors, I hope to pass down our excellent culture.

The following pages include a clear floor plan of the museum and its collections. But because we have several buildings, the overview (鸟瞰图) below might be helpful. Enjoy your visit and feel free to ask for help and directions at any point during your stay.

The Chongyang Festival is a special day elderly people in China. The festival is on the (nine) day of September of the lunar calendar. As the Chinese word for "nine" (have) the same sound as the word for "long", people take the festival to show their wishes of long life for elderly people.

There are many traditions for this festival. On that day, (family) get together and climb mountains for luck and in the hope that elderly people will live much (long). They also drink chrysanthemum wine (菊花酒) and wear a plant called zhuyu (celebrate) it. Both chrysanthemums zhuyu are regarded as clean plants that can clean houses and cure diseases (治愈疾病).

Respecting elderly people (show) not only on this special day but also in daily life. For example, when an older person (come) into a room, everyone stands up. People usually introduce guests the oldest to the youngest. On a crowded subway or bus, younger people always offer (they) seats to elderly people.

It is traditional virtue (美德) in China to respect elderly people. That's because the Chinese know that elderly people have (know) and experience that young people can learn from. So Chinese people are (pride) of being old. Besides, respecting the elderly people is respecting yourselves tomorrow.

First, the guests should be seated in order of importance from the left-hand side of the host. It3 that older and superior guests are usually seated first. Don't sit face-to-face with the host because it is considered impolite.4 it is unavoidable, children should take this seat.

Second, when being served with tea, guests should receive the tea cup with both5. Don't forget to6 your thanks to the host. In China, finger tapping (敲) is a7 way to give silent thanks to the person pouring tea for you. Do you know how to do it8? Just tap the table three times with two fingers each time your cup is9 tea by another person.

Third, the tea is usually10 in a small cup, as this allows the tea to cool faster. However, no matter what size of the cup is, don't drink it at once.

Because of his excellent performance, Hao Yongquan was chosen as Gansu's most beautiful forest ranger (护林员)in December, 2023.

Hao has been a forest ranger since he stopped serving in the army in 1987. He and his workmates at Guanyin Forest Farm are called the "Forest's Eyes" and "Green Guardians".

"Daily work usually starts with patrolling(巡逻). Every morning, we carry necessary equipment after having breakfast and then set off to forests with dry food and water bottles, patrolling until it gets dark," Hao said.

Rangers have been living in the mountains and forests for years, getting used to difficulties and loneliness. They always go out early and return at sunset during the whole year, and it's their duty to protect green mountains and clear waters.

A forest ranger often has to walk more than 12 kilometers a day, and a pair of shoes wears out in two to three months, according to Hao.

"Because of poor road conditions, if rangers go to the farthest villages for patrols, they have to walk 30 to 40 kilometers on mountain roads, climb four mountains, and cross more than 10 rivers, " Hao said."And each patrol takes three to four days."

When Hao returns from his patrol every day, he writes down the-results in the patrol diary, recording his love for mountains and forests.

"The environment is improving day, by day, and. that makes me feel my work is useful"he said.

Sunflowers are beautiful and useful plants that people all over the world enjoy. They can grow very tall, sometimes over three meters. A young sunflower hasamazing ability—its flower face follows, the sun across the skyeast to west each day.

This movement is called heliotropism (向日性). It helps the young plant get as much sunlight as possible. when the flower becomes heavy with seeds(种子),it stops moving and stays facing east forever.

The sunflower is not only pretty but also important. In fact, do you know it's one of the most useful(plant) in the world? For example, we can eat their seeds as a healthy snack. Besides being a great snack, we can also make cooking oil from them. Last month, I(buy) some sunflower seeds from the supermarket, and they were really delicious!

For farmers, sunflowers are a good plant because they grow quite (easy). What's more, they are the (strong) in fighting dry weather among many plants.

These happy-looking flowers bring color to our gardens and food to our tables. That's why sunflowers are so popular in many countries. They are truly wonderful plants that make our world brighter and (beautiful).

Looking at sunflowers can make us (feel) happy. Their bright yellow color reminds people of the sun. If you want to grow them, remember they love sunshine. With good care, you will be amazed by (they) beauty in summer.

A father and his son went to a kite flying festival. The son was very happy to see all the colorful kites and asked his father to1 him one. To make him happy, the father went to a shop and got one for him.

The son started flying his kite excitedly. Soon it reached high up in the2 ,After some time, the son thought to himself, "It seems that the string (绳子) is stopping the kite from flying higher. If I3 it, the kite will be free to fly even higher."' So he asked his father for a small knife and gave it a try.

Without the string, the kite did go a little higher. That made the son very4 .However, it soon started to fall down. The son was5 to see this. He

expected (期待) that the kite would fly higher instead of (而不是) falling down.

He turned to his father for a(n)6 . He asked, "Father, I thought that after cutting the string, the kite could fly higher. But why did it7 ?" The father

answered, "Well, Son, in fact, the string helped the kite stay high and guided it in the right direction (方向). When we cut the string, the kite lost that support (支撑) and fell down".

8 we sometimes feel that wo can go further quickly by ourselves. We feel that we can fly higher if we don't stay with our parents, but we don't know that they help us go through difficult times. Only with the support of our 9 can we reach higher heights in our lives. We may 10 the rules they make for us, but these rules can guide us in a right way.

Going to visit your neighbour is fun. You will be good friends after you spend time together. But how to be a good-visitor? 

When to get to your neighbour's home

When a neighbour invites you, you need to get to his or her home on time. If he or she asks you to come at 3:00, you should get there before 3:05. 

What to take

Presents like a box of chocolate or a CD are good, because you can share them. A little present is a way to show your neighbours that you are happy to be with them.

How to say hello

When you visit a neighbour, you may also meet his or her father and mother. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. It will show that you respect them. Another way to show respect is to call them madam or sir.

It is a cool thing to visit a neighbour's house. Be nice to your neighouryou're your neighbour's parents, and then you will be welcomed again.
