activity it was!

Although everyone felt tired, we all understood to protect the environment.

the park beautiful again, we leave it was getting dark.

During this activity, we not only cleaned up the rubbish, but also recycled reusable things , such as plastic bottles.

Last week, a park clean-up activity by our school.

A girl complained to her father about her hard. She was tired of fighting problems—one solved, another appeared.

Her father, a cook, took her into the kitchen. He three pans with water and boiled them. Then he put carrots into the first pan, eggs into the second, and coffee into the third. The girl waited s, confused by what her father was doing.

About twenty minutes later, her father took out the carrots and eggs and put them into bowls. Then he poured the coffee into a cup. He asked her to touch the carrots. They were soft. Then he asked her to break the eggs. They were hard. Finally, he s that she smell the coffee. She smiled at the rich aroma (香味).

"What does this mean, Father?" she asked. He explained that each had faced the s unlucky experience but had different results. The strong carrots became soft and weak. The fragile eggs became hard. The coffee, however, changed the water. "Who are you" asked the father, "When bad luck knocks at your door, are you carrots, eggs, or coffee?" She thought for a while and then gave a wise choice.

Guangzhou olive stone carving (榄雕) is a famous traditional art in Guangdong with a history of over 300 years. It is made from the stone of Chinese olives, which are small but hard.

To make a good olive stone carving, a carver needs great skills and patience. First, they choose the best olive stones—they must be round and without any cracks. Then they draw a design on the stone carefully. Some complex works take several months to finish. A famous olive stone carving work is a small boat with many small windows and even tiny people inside.

Today, Guangzhou olive stone carving is a national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产). Young people are less interested in learning it because it takes a long time to master the skills and the work is hard. To protect it, local schools in Guangzhou start to teach olive stone carving as an after-school course. They hope more people will love this traditional art and pass it on to the next generation.

A. After that, they use special small knives to carve slowly.

B. The carvers turn these tiny stones into amazing works of art, like small boats, flowers, animals and even mini landscapes.

C. Some master carvers also hold workshops to teach kids and young people.

D. But it is not easy to keep this art alive.

E. You need a magnifying glass (放大镜) to see all the small details clearly!

②Microplastics are tiny plastic pieces. They come from two main sources. Primary microplastics are made for industrial use. These pieces often enter oceans through wastewater. Secondary microplastics form when larger plastic waste breaks down over time due to sunlight and waves. Unlike large plastic pieces, microplastics are so small that they can't be easily seen with the naked eye, which makes them hard to clean up from the ocean.

③The harm of microplastics to ocean life is serious. Small marine creatures often mistake microplastics for food. Since plastic cannot be digested, these pieces stay in their bodies, causing physical damage. When these small creatures are eaten by larger fish and seabirds, microplastics move up the food chain. At last, they build up in the bodies of top predators, leading to organ damage, even death.

④What's more, microplastics are not just a danger to ocean life. They are also making their way into the human food chain. Many of the fish which humans eat have microplastics in their bodies. Although scientists are still studying the exact influence of microplastics on human health, early research shows these pieces can enter human organs through digestion (消化). Some microplastics also take in harmful chemicals from the ocean, and when humans eat polluted seafood, these chemicals may enter our bodies and increase the risk of chronic diseases.

⑤Fortunately, actions are being taken around the world to reduce microplastic pollution. Many countries have made laws to stop the production of microplastics in personal care products. Some cities have started strict plastic waste sorting and recycling programs to prevent larger plastics from entering the ocean. Scientists are also developing new technologies, such as biodegradable (可降解的) plastics to clean up microplastics. Individual actions also matter. Reduce the use of single-use plastics. Reuse and recycle plastic products properly.

⑥The ocean is a valuable resource for all living things. Protecting it from microplastics is not just a global task. It is a responsibility that each of us must take on.

Born in 1853 in a small Dutch village, van Gogh was a serious and sensitive child. He loved to draw, and his work showed talent, but no one encouraged him to become an artist. Instead, his father thought he should take a proper job. Then the young man wandered from job to job with little success and very little money, becoming more depressed with each failure. In March 1880, however, just before his 27th birthday, something changed inside van Gogh. He realized that he was meant to be a painter.

In 1886, van Gogh moved to Paris, hoping to learn about the color techniques being used by Impressionist artists there. Instead of grays and browns, his work began to use blue and red, and then yellow and orange. Soon he began to see life differently: Go slow. Stop thinking. Look around. You'll see something beautiful if you open yourself. These were the rules that guided his art. With his creative color uses, van Gogh wanted to show others how to better appreciate a flower, the night sky, or a person's face.

However, few who lived in van Gogh's time appreciated his work. Many laughed when they saw his paintings, which hurt the sensitive artist terribly. Van Gogh's mental health worsened sharply. In the spring of 1889, he was sent to a mental hospital, where he painted masterpieces like The Starry Night during periods of calm."Working on my pictures," he wrote, "is almost a necessity for me to get better."

In 1890, at 37, he died, having sold only one painting in his lifetime. Over a century after his death, van Gogh remains extremely popular. People find pieces of themselves in him. This may also explain the high prices paid for van Gogh's work. When we buy one of van Gogh's paintings, we are not just buying art—we are buying a piece of his story.

First, think about what things make you curious to learn more. Make an observation. For example, you may have noticed that mold (霉) grows on most kinds of foods. Then, you may ask yourself a question, "What conditions make the mold grow best?" It helps you focus on what you want to know. Next, you need to make a hypothesis. It comes from what you already know. So here, you may guess that mold grows best in cold and dark conditions. After that, it's time to run an experiment to test your hypothesis! You could put the food in different conditions to see what will happen. Finally, the results come out and you'll draw a conclusion—Are the results the same as your hypothesis or different from it?
