A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost. They can go as far as 110 metres and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert (沙漠), so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It's like someone walking six kilometres through a dark forest.

Some fish have an unbelievable sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area.

Some animals can sense the earth's magnetic field (磁场), while humans can't. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then back. How can this kind of fish do that? It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet.

However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals.

One boy called Eric made the simplest paper plane. He stood there at the starting line with a normal piece of paper. A minute later, he took the flat piece of paper, made it into a ball, and threw it down the hallway. We were so surprised at what he did. We never expected things to happen like that. He beat all of us easily.

Some of the students got angry and Mary even said that he cheated.

The physics teacher said, "How so? He doesn't do anything wrong because a paper ball is indeed (确实) a shape. I like his idea."

Yes, Eric didn't cheat. He just finished the task in a different way. In our life, what we have learned turns into our experience. We do everything according to it. However, our experience gets in the way of our development sometimes.It stops us from coming up with new ideas and is bad for our creativity. So it is really necessary for us to learn to think outside of the "box". Then we may think of more and easier ways so that we can have a better result. Just like Eric in the story, we should think creatively.

In a village, there lived a young man named James. He always felt pain because of his hard life. One day, he visited a wise old man and told1 about his troubles.

The old man2 James patiently and then gave him a handful of salt. James was confused (困惑的). He wanted to know whether the salt was magical and could wash away all the3 in his life.

Then the man4 James to put some salt in a glass of water and drink it. James followed the man's instructions (指示).

"How does it5 ?" asked the man.

"That is awful," said James as he spat (吐) out the salty water.

The old man laughed and then led James to the nearby   6 . "Put the same amount of salt in the lake and drink the water from it," said the man.

"It is perfect. I can7 taste any salt," James said. "I am so8 . I can drink a lot!" This time, James enjoyed the cool water of the lake very much.

The old man then sat next to James, took his hands and said, "The pain in life is just like salt. How it tastes depends on the container we put it into. So, when you are in pain, you can make your heart9. Stop being like a glass and10 being like a lake. Then the troubles in your life will cause you less pain and you can enjoy your life better."

My Good Friends

Molly and Lisa are my good friends. 

 how difficult the life is, don't give up. 

To get good grades, he studies and 

She wants to  her feelings  her friends. 

My legs were  tiredI wanted to stop. 

We must  carefully in class. 

Students may want to feed street cats in the school, but they may not know where the cats are. Now, at Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU), students can use their phones to find school cats and get to know them. 

To give school cats a better life, students of the university(大学) made a WeChat mini— program(小程序)—— Beiwai Cats. On it, every cat in the university has an"ID card". The cards show. the cats'photos and also have stories about them. Cat lovers can also adopt(收养) school cats on the mini— program. 

Zhou Hengxiao, 20, helped make the mini— program. He is a member of the BFSU Love CatsGroup. He says it is useful for both the students and the cats. Through(通过) the mini— program, students can learn more about the cats. 

The group is also active on Weibo, Bilibili and Xiaohongshu. "We share the culture of our university through the cats. When we make money from these platforms(平台), we will use it to feed the cats and help with their illnesses(疾病), " he says. 

The group hopes to add more cats near the university to Beiwai Cats. " Some people think it's a little dangerous for students to feed the cats, but we just want to do our best to give every small life a home, " says Zhou. " Students can learn how to take care of others, too. "

A Valuable Lesson

Everyone in Class 5 knew that Mike was a kind boy, but he wasn't very interested in his studies, especially English. He found grammar boring and often spent his time drawing in his notebook during lessons. His mid— term exam result was not good. 

One afternoon, Mike saw his English teacher, Mr. Davis, staying after school. Mr. Davis was studying a thick Chinese language book. Mike was surprised. "Mr. Davis, you're a teacher. Why are you still studying so hard?"he asked. 

Mr. Davis smiled. "Learning never stops, Mike. I'm learning Chinese because I want to understand my students' culture better. It's difficult for me, just like English might be for you. But I practice a little every day. "

Mike was touched. He realized that Mr. Davis, an adult, was still working hard to learn something new. He decided to change his attitude. 

For the next month, Mike stopped drawing in class. He listened carefully, took notes, and asked questions when. he didn't understand. He even started a vocabulary notebook. It wasn't easy, and he sometimes felt tired, but he didn't give up. 

When the next test came, Mike felt nervous. But when he got his paper back, he saw a big improvement! He didn't get the highest score in the class, but he improved by 20 points. More importantly, he felt proud of himself. He had learned that hard work really pays off.
