Just one bite of the cake with eggs is enough to make John feel very sick. Susan gets a terrible skin problem whenever she has seafood, and David nearly died when he first ate a peanut cookie. The body's reaction(反应) to certain foods can be quite serious resulting in breathing problems or even the death. There are many things we eat that may cause our bodies to react badly if we have a food allergy(过敏). 

There are three common ways to test food allergies. Probably, the simplest way is to give a child a food test. The doctor watches the child eat a little certain food to see if the child has an allergic reaction. This method takes quite a long time, so it is used less often than the other two methods-skin tests and blood tests. In a skin test, a doctor puts allergens under the child's skin and then waits to see if the child's skin reacts. In a blood test, doctors take some of the child's blood and add allergens to it and then check the blood. 

Dr. Jennifer from Stanford University spent 10years studying the methods. She found a surprising fact. Skin tests or blood tests given to patients who visited their doctors for treatment of skin problems or stomachaches showed that these patients were allergic to certain foods. However, later tests showed that although they tested positive(阳性), fewer than 50percent of them actually had food allergies. The problem might be food intolerance(不耐受) instead of a food allergy. 

Food allergies have something to do with a person's immune system, while food intolerance has something to do with a person's digestive system and the reaction is usually less serious. One of the most common kinds of food intolerance happens to people who have trouble taking in the milk sugar in food like milk, cheese and ice cream. 

Though allergy tests may show false positive results, they are still useful and can save lives. Some children's food allergies may disappear as they grow older. So even though doctors don't cure food allergies. sometimes the body itself does. 

The Zenghouyi Chine Bells(编钟) were uncovered from the Zenghouyi Tomb in Suizhou, Hubei Province in1978. They are historically important treasures of China. The Zenghouyi Chime Bells are hung at three levels and are set in eight groups. There are 19 bells in three groups at the top level, 33 bells in three groups at the middle level and 12 bells in two groups at the bottom level. Besides, there is a much larger bell used to adjust pitch(调节音高), The bells in each row are different from one another in shape and size. 

The Zenghouyi Chime Bells are hung on two sets of wood racks(架子). One rack is 7. 48 meters long and2. 65 meters high. The other rack is 3. 35 meters long and 2. 73 meters high. The two racks are perpendicular to each other, which forms an angle of ninety degrees. 

The Zenghouyi Chime Bells weigh a total of about4. 4 tons. The biggest bell is of 153. 4 cm in height and203. 6 k g in weight while the smallest bell is of 20. 4 cm in height and 2. 4 kg in weight. 

Five musicians were needed to play the instrument in the past. These bells have no clappers(铃舌) and are sounded by striking. Because of their shape, each bell could produce two different tones(音色)— One if struck at the side, the other at the center. The whole set of chi me bells is able to produce all the tones of a modern piano. 

You may feel that math is hard and boring. Is it possible that you' ve been looking at math in the wrong way? With the International Day of Mathematics coming on March 14th, we interviewed Li Xing, a math professor at Ningxia University. We asked if math can be beautiful and fun. Here's what he said. 

Numbers are beautiful.

Many people today want to have beautiful looks. But there is math hidden in beautiful human bodies, Measure(测量) the length from your head to your belly button(肚脐) and from your belly button to your feet. If the ratio(比例) of these two numbers is around0. 618, it is the golden ratio, which can be seen everywhere, like in nature, music and paintings. 

In Chinese poems, we can also see the beauty of numbers. As Li Bai wrote, "I' ve sailed a thousand miles through Gorges in a day(千里江陵一日还)", "My skiff has left ten thousand mountains far away(轻舟已过万重山)". "A . thousand miles in one day", "ten thousand mountains"— All these numbers show how fast Li Bai traveled and how happy he felt. Numbers give us freedom to imagine. 

Carves(曲线) are beautiful.

Sine(正弦) curve is beautiful. It goes towards the two opposite directions on and on without ever ending. When you look at it, you may feel like standing by the sea and watching the waves slowly moving. The tangent(正切) curve is like a waterfall. That's really "dashing down three thousand feet from high(飞流直下三千尺)". If you do a math problem and get that curve, you' ll feel wonderful. 

Formulas(公式) are beautiful.

There are many amazing formulas. For example, in a right triangle(直角三角形), the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. How neat(简洁的)! Just as the Chinese-American mathematician Chern Shing-shen said, "Math is fun!"

important role parents play in shaping children's future!

in the library.

During the years, people change a lot. Five years is enough to compare yourself now and then. I think that I have changed a lot in the past five years.

Firstly, there are changes in my thoughts. Five years ago my thoughts were the same as a child's. I believed that the world was a place without problems. I thought that I could always have time for games and friends wouldn't change. Also I was sure that if I had any problems, my parents could always be around me, offering help. Now I still believe that the world is a great place to live in, but sometimes there are different problems you have to face. And at times you have to deal with these problems alone without any help. And that is one of the changes that have happened to me in the past five years. Now I'm much more responsible (有责任的) and serious than five years ago.

Secondly, there are some changes in my interests. Now I spend less time with friends and I spend most of my time studying for exams. Five years ago, it wasn't so. I believed that there was nothing more important than watching cartoon movies during those days.

Although I have changed in some ways, there are some similar ways between now and then. For example, I still like spending time with friends. And I am still sure that childhood is the best time in our life.

When you want to buy a pair of running shoes, will you choose Nike or Li-Ning? It's a choice between local and foreign brands. According to a latest study, Chinese people generally prefer local brands to foreign brands. They choose the local brands because of the low price, good quality (质量) and creative design (设计).

Some Chinese brands have risen in these years. They have even started to win some fans abroad. A research showed that 71 percent of customers said Chinese brands were important to them.

Chinese brands like Huawei, Xiaomi, DJI, Feiyue, Li-Ning and Shein have all become more popular abroad. For example, Huawei is the world's second-biggest mobile phone company. Its products are used in more than 170 countries and areas. Huawei is also a leader in 5G technology. Shein, a "fast fashion" brand, made more than 10 billion dollars last year, a 100-percent increase over 2019, Global Times reported. Many European people like Shein products because they're affordable, fashionable and of high quality.

In the future, Chinese brands will continue to develop. "Thanks to a bigger market, improved supply chains (供应链) and efficient (高效的) producing, this is the best time for the development of local brands," Yan Qiang, a partner with Beijing-based Hejun Consulting, told Global Times.

It's important to teach your children good manners (礼仪). Teaching good manners should begin long before they know how to walk or talk. In life, you have to set a good example for them.

But how do we teach them good manners? There is a good book, How to Behave and Why. It is written by Munro Leaf. I read it with my first grade students and we love the book. It tells good manners that every child should know. The words in the book are not difficult and there are pictures in it. They make the book easy to understand.

Also, you can teach your children in life. Before they're going to school or a friend's house, tell them the importance of good manners. In your family, you can make a list of family manners. This helps children learn good manners anytime. And you can have a manners competition. It makes learning manners more interesting.

What are good manners for children? At school, they should respect (尊敬) teachers and other classmates. They shouldn't be noisy in class. And they should say "hello" or "goodbye" to teachers and classmates, and "thank you" when they get help from others. Good table manners are important, too. For example, teach your children not to talk with their mouths full. Tell them that old people should eat first. Teach your children not to be late for classes, parties, meetings and so on.

In fact, good manners will provide a lot of help for your children in their daily life. So teach them to your children and learn with your children.

What are your clothes made of? Are they made of cotton or wool (羊毛)? On October 7th, in Shandong, 36 students wore beautiful clothes in a show. Their clothes were1 of all kinds of things.

The show gave the students a2 to make things with their own hands. It also helped them learn to make good use of3 and not to throw anything away. The students had lots of good ideas. Some found used things, like old4, and made them into new dresses.

"We hope to5 energy. Our world is short of energy. So I don't want to just throw old things away," said Xie Jing at Linyi Art School. Xie had more than 20 discs (磁盘) on her nice blue dress. "Though the discs are6, I look very cool in them!" she said. Another student, Song Dan, looked like a7 in her straw (稻草) coat and hat. "I want to show what people8 in the past," she said.

Du Yue made clothes for astronauts! When she walked, she tried to be9. It looked as if she was walking on the10. "I hope to wear it in space someday. I wish that I could walk on the moon!" she said.

Learn to Deal with Negative Emotions

[1]Have you ever seen porcelain that has carved hollows (镂空雕刻) and clay flowers? This special kind of porcelain is called Tonghua porcelain (通花瓷). It is from Chaozhou city, Guangdong province. In 2008, it was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产).

[2]It ____ about 20 steps and 45 days to turn a porcelain design into a finished product. A Tonghua porcelain vase has as many as 10,000 hollows. The maker must plan carefully. If a hollow is carved too large, it can crack (裂开) during firing.

[3]Born in 1995 into a family of Tonghua porcelain makers, Ye Hao is a young inheritor (传承人) of the art. (75) As the number of people with Tonghua skills is falling in Guangdong, he feels it is very important to master it. Ye has been improving his skills for over 10 years.

[4]During a winter holiday, while Ye was practicing clay flower shaping, his grandfather came and laughed at the cracks in the flowers he made. "My grandpa told me that I didn't have the feel for clay. I didn't understand ____ he meant then, but now I realize he was encouraging me to practice more," Ye said. Moisture levels (湿度水平) in clay are important, as dry clay cracks easily.

[5]Trying to be creative with the art, Ye chose to make it part of his everyday hobbies. For example, he created a porcelain brooch (胸针) with a rose design. It was chosen ____ a souvenir (纪念品) by the Department of Culture and Tourism of Guangdong province. He also designed six Tonghua porcelain vases that include main characters from a popular show. He successfully improved Tonghua skills by mixing traditional art and pop culture.

[6]Ye said he would keep looking for ways to bring the art into everyday life and show it to more people with fresh designs.
