Today is fine. The sky is blue. Now it's nine o'clock in the morning. There's a sports meeting in the forest on the big mountain. 

Look, a horse, a panda and a cat are running. Over there a dog and two tigers are jumping. Two monkeys are climbing the trees. Four birds are flying around and singing. 

There are some other animals there, too. The elephants are standing. A monkey is sitting on an old elephant. The monkey has a flag (旗子) in his hand. Polly is sitting in the tree. A fox, a baby panda and some little animals are sitting under the trees. They are all watching.

Dear Michelle, 

How are you? I'm having a lot of fun here in New York with my family. Yesterday morning, we went to Central Park. In the afternoon, we visited the Statue of Liberty. And tomorrow we will visit the Brooklyn Bridge. 

Today we went to a science festival. All my family enjoyed it. Dad liked it because it was free to go in! There were many interesting activities (活动). That's why I liked it. We tried on a space suit (穿航天服), and we made lots of model planes! Mom's favorite was the clocks and she bought a beautiful one at the shop. 

There were young people from many different countries at the festival. I met a boy called Alex. He comes from Australia and he is good at making robots. And he started his company (公司) to sell them! I want to start my company, but Mom says I need to finish school first. 

The festival gave me lots of ideas for my high school science homework. I could do something about electricity (电) or about ice, but I think I'll write about robots, because I'm interested in robots now. 

See you soon!

Yours, 

Robert

Young Su Shi and His Couplet

Su Shi, also known as Su Dongpo, was a famous poet in the Northern Song Dynasty (北宋). When he was a boy, he read a lot of books and wrote great articles. People highly praised him because of this, he became a little too proud and wrote a couplet (对联) for himself.

Knowing all the words in the world;

Reading all the books on the earth.

A knowledgeable old man saw this couplet and thought, "He needs to learn how to be humble (谦逊)." One day, the old man came to Su Shi's house with a book.

"What can I do for you?" Su Shi asked.

The old man showed Su Shi some words in the book and said, "I am reading a book, but there are so many words in it I don't know. I saw your couplet, so I was hoping you could teach me how to read them."

Su Shi looked at the words but didn't know any of them. His face turned red with shame. "What book is this? How come I didn't know any of the words?" Su Shi looked at the name of the book and was shocked (震惊). He had never heard of this book before.

In fact, the old man had read the book many times. He knew every word in it. He just wanted to let Su Shi know the importance of being humble. Su Shi realised why the old man came, and said, "I shouldn't have been so proud of myself."

The old man smiled and left.

Su Shi stood at the door, seeing the old man off. Then he went to rewrite the couplet.

Working hard to know all the words in the world;

Making decisions to read all the books on the earth.

Hugs may seem unimportant, but hugging is a necessary human need. For example, hugging is important in building human relationships. When a person is given a hug, he or she feels loved and important. In this way, it creates a sense of trust, belonging (归属感) and safety that encourages open communication and understanding with others.

Hugging also has many health advantages. For example, hugs can be good for people's heath. Research has shown that hugs can lower the risk of getting a cold as well as lower worry levels. Giving and receiving hugs can also make people happier.

Finally, hugging can even save lives. In recent years, doctors have found that it is best when a baby is held soon after being born. It keeps the baby warm and helps keep his heart rate stable (心率平稳). Besides, these babies feel safer and seem to be happier. Sometimes, a hug from a mother can save the life of her newly-born baby who is dying.

Knowing the importance of a hug, one man started the Free Hugs Campaign in 2001. It was an act of kindness to show that everyone is an important person. Giving hugs to unknown people who wanted or needed a bug became popular in society. Now, the month of July is known as International Free Hugs Month.

Someone once said, "We need four hugs a day for living on. We need eight hugs a day for holding on. We need twelve hugs a day for growing up." There may not be many people who give out 12 a day. But for all it advantages, maybe it is something we should all do more often.

They travel more than 100 kilometers every day. They bring about 200,000 meals on bikes or on foot to hungry workers, all at exactly 12:30 p. m. Many of them can't read or write. But only 1 in every around 6,000,000 lunch boxes ever goes missing in one of the biggest cities in the world. Who are they?

They are dabbawallas, the lunch carriers in Mumbai, India. To people working in the centre of Mumbai, home-cooked meals are like a greeting (问候) from their family. But it's not easy for the workers to travel a long way with lunch boxes. Thanks to dabbawallas, they can enjoy a hot, fresh and healthy meal from home far away.

Kiran, an experienced dabbawalla, tells the story. "Our method (方法) is simple but works well. In the morning we pick up lunch boxes at people's homes by bike. Then we meet at the local railway station to divide the boxes into groups. We use colours, numbers and letters to help each other remember the customers' names and addresses. We won't get it wrong even in our sleep! When in Mumbai, each of us takes meals to workers in a certain area. The streets can be busy. The weather can be bad. But the lunch will always be on time. We work hard to serve people. We get their trust and respect (尊重). We take pride in our job."
