1、 Thursday 赏月有感
Tonight our family was going out to play under the full moon
We first started going on full moon walks for ourselves, because my husband Todd and Iloved them and we needed the moonlight to stay happy and to function in society. But after we became parents, we did this for our children. We wanted Sierra and Bryce to see that there is much magic in the natural world and that most of it is accessible to anyone. We also wanted to show them that it was not necessary to travel far from home to have an adventure, learn, and experience something new. Nearly every month, our family went into the night to"play" by the full moon.
Once we arrived at our location that evening, Sierra and I stood holding hands, waiting to cheer the full moon in its rising. A thin yellow moon poked above the shape of the BlueMountain Ridge. Everyone stood up and watched its rising. More of the moon came out until it turned into a brilliant orange sphere. Todd explained to Sierra and Bryce that the moon makes no light of its own, but simply acts like a mirror, reflecting the sunlight back to us long after the sun has sunk below the horizon.
"Does the moon's face change?" Bryce asked. I told him that the moon rotates with the earth, but it does not spin on its axis like the earth does. The same side of the moon is always facing the earth. We never see the other side, the far side of the moon. Sierra said that the moon looked larger and closer when it was rising. I explained that it is an optical illusion because it is so close to the horizon that the moon tricks our eyes into comparing it with nearby objects to create the impression of increased size.
Much of the knowledge that Todd and I shared with the kids had been learned from our past life experiences. If we did not have the knowledge to explain and educate, we looked it up, either beforehand to improve the experience or afterward together, after we wondered and came up with a list of questions.
Opportunities to explore magical experiences and learning are right in your neighborhood. Sometimes all it takes is going outdoors and looking up at the heavens.

7、 Wednesday 特殊的自行车
About fifteen years ago, AndrewMcLindon, a successful businessman aswell as a cyclist, was riding his bike as usual in Austin, Texas, when he thought about a friend's 12-year-old son. The boy had never known the joy of biking because he suffered from a serious disease in the brain, which often causes balance problems.
When he got home, McLindon went online and found a three-wheel bike with a seat belt, perfect for a child with balance problems.
Soon the boy was riding around the street with his friends, having fun and getting exercise at the same time. McLindon says. "I' ll never forget the smile on his face. "
That smile launched the McLindon Family Foundation. With great efforts, the foundation works with some local hospitals to search for children who can get help from owning such a bike, which can meet the special needs of the child. The bike includes a headrest that supports a person's head, a seat belt and a braking part in the back. The bike is expensive——$3, 000 to $4, 000, and that's a present with the foundation's huge support. It's enough lucky for kids to get one.
"We worked with a 14-year-old girl who has spinal disease, " says McLindon. "She spent most days on the couch watching TV. Soon after she got her bike, she was training for special-needs sports. In a magazine interview, she said, 'I always knew there was a player in me. '"
So far, the foundation has given away 450 bikes, and that's just a start. "I do a lot of things. I run a lot of companies, " McLindon says. "But getting these kids their bikes is the most important thing that I do. "

13、 Tuesday 植物"不喜欢"被触摸
When we see babies or pets, we can't help gently touching them to show our love. And they give us happy feelings back. But a recent study shows that it's different for plants.
In fact, ▲ . That's because touching changes their genes and, even worse, can slow their growth. Professor Jim Whelan of the LaTrobe Institute in Australia gave an explanation. "The lightest touch from a human, or even plants touching each other in the wind, leads to a huge gene change in the plant. "
In order to test the idea, the scientists did an experiment on plants. They grew a number of plants to the age of four weeks. Then they touched them with a paintbrush every 12 hours over a 36-hour period. They found that as a result, the mitochondria in the plants had been partly hurt. The mitochondria are the" powerhouse of the cell". The mitochondria produce energy for the rest of the cell in both animals and plants. If this" powerhouse" is weakened, the plants will lose a large amount of energy that should have supported their growth. Whelan further explained, "If the touching is repeated, then plant growth is reduced by up to 30percent. " According to Science Alert, repeated touching or moving plants will make them grow shorter than others.
Although the touching does have a strong effect on plants, it's not always bad. The researchers believe, in some ways, it could be helpful. It may help plants fight against insects and bad weather. The new research findings have led to a deeper understanding of the plants'reply to touching. And the research might also "open up new ways to optimize growth in the future", Science Alert reported.
(1)、Which of the following is the best for" ▲ " in Paragraph 2?A、people like touching plants B、plants don't "like" to be touched C、plants won't grow if they are touched D、people should touch plants as much as possible(2)、How many times did people touch the plants during the experiment?A、1. B、3. C、6. D、12.(3)、According to the passage, scientists found that repeated touching could ____ .A、shorten the life of plants B、help plants produce more energy C、make plants grow more slowly D、cause the death of plants(4)、The main purpose of the passage is to tell us ____ .A、to touch plants often to show our love B、some ways of helping plants grow better C、advantages and disadvantages of touching plants D、the differences between touching the plants and the animals -

19、 Monday联合国中文日
The 2024 UN Chinese Language Day was celebrated globally. It was initiated by the UN in 2010 and is on April 20. The main goal of this day is to expand the international communication value of the language. And it's not restricted to April 20; the celebration lasts throughout the entire month.
Before April 20, cultural events focusing on"Chinese language and mutual learning" were organized in countries in South Asia, Europe, and Africa. UNESCO, a special agency of the UN, initiated a five-day exhibition at its Paris headquarters on April 15 to display how Chinese calligraphy, ink painting, and folk mythology are featured in children's picture books.
While the UNESCO exhibition was held in Paris, musical events featuring Chinese folk songs like Hundreds of Birds Worshiping the Phoenix took place at the UN Office in Nairobi(UNON), Kenya. Zainab Hawa Bangura, the director-general of UNON, said at the local Chinese Language Day celebration that these events can help deepen the world's understanding and appreciation of Chinese culture.
Linguistic analyst Liao told the reporter that when it comes to the designs of Chinese characters, the Chinese language carries a lot of cultural connotations that reveal the cultural philosophy, folk customs, and world views of the Chinese people. He also emphasized that apart from African countries, nearby Asian countries such as the Republic of Korea, Thailand, and Nepal are filled with Chinese language learners.
During an event for the day in Kathmandu, Nepal, the Chairman of the Nepal LanguageCommission, Gopal Thakur, stated that the Chinese language has become one of the languages of employment in the country, and the goal of promoting Chinese is strongly supported by the local government.
To facilitate the further spread of Chinese in Latvia, the Panda Chinese textbook was recently launched in this eastern European country. Panda Chinese is the first textbook for the locals written in Chinese, Latvian, Russian, and English.
In addition to overseas celebrations, the 2024 UN Chinese Language Day was also commemorated at Beijing Language and Culture University. The event welcomed over 300overseas students from countries like Japan, Vietnam, and the United Arab Emirates.
