My husband and I were taking care of Lizzy, our daughter Debra's pet dog, on April 17 while Debra was in hospital. We received a message from our son-in-law, Joe, that Debra was about to give birth. Tom and I sprang from our chairs suddenly. It's a tradition in our family to wait at the hospital of a birth. This would be Debra and Joe's first child. 

"You take Lizzy out before we leave, and I'll be waiting for you in the car!" I told Tom. I started the car and waited impatiently. I saw my husband walk out of the front door but at that moment Lizzy shot out and ran down the street at a great speed. 

My husband ran after the dog and I followed in my car. "Lizzy! Lizzy!" We shouted as fear filled my heart, we ran after her down our Bellwood Street, "She's running on Wireless Road!" We both cried with fear. Lizzy ran up and down in the busy street. My husband kept running after her, out of breath, I shouted to my husband, "Tom, be careful when you cross the street!"

Within minutes, traffic was actually stopped on Wireless Road. Several good people got out of their cars to help us to get the dog back. Soon, she ran into a safer area and back to our street, With the help of six strangers, we caught her within a few minutes, everyone cheered, and we thanked the helpers again and again. 

With Lizzy safely back inside, we drove straight to the hospital at once and were able to see our daughter in the delivery room (产房). My husband and I were forever thankful to the strangers who might have saved Lizzy's life and who enabled us to be there at the beginning of a precious new one. 

①Are you tired of people asking the questions, "What's your hobby?" Well, you always hear the same old answers: reading, listening to music, painting and so on. There's nothing wrong with these activities, but maybe it's time for some new ideas. 

②For example, how about "yarn bombing"? What's that? Maybe you have heard of knitting (编织) to make sweaters, scarves, gloves and other things. With yarn bombing, people knit different kinds of things, like sweaters for trees or hats for the stones in the park. It's the latest form of artwork. In some cities, people are even paying knitters to decorate public places with their art. Some call it "Knitting Graffiti (涂鸦), " but unlike other forms of graffiti, it is easy to take away, and it doesn't destroy anything. 

③Do you like those TV shows in which the police use science to solve crimes? If you do, you can take up "forensic science" as a hobby. That's the science used to find crimes. You can get a set of at-home fingerprint tools and find out who is taking cookies from the cookie box or perhaps who is reading your secret diary. 

④Finally, here's a hobby for those who want to have fun and make a little money. It's called "upcycling". You've heard of recycling—you put things like glass, paper and plastic in special boxes so the materials can be used again. Upcyclers take old things and make them into new things. Sometimes they can even sell the things they make. For example, you can take an old book bag, clean it up and decorate it. It will look like a cool new bag. There's even a magazine called Upcycle that is full of ideas. All you need for this is an old thing and a good imagination. 

⑤So look around for a new and interesting hobby. Then when someone asks you the question "What's your hobby?", you can give them an answer that they've never heard before. 

Lhalung Dorje works for China Post in Ruo'ergai town, Sichuan Province. For many years, he has sent packages (包裹）and talked with local people. Through this work, he learned much about local products like dried meat, milk, vegetables, and fruits. In March 2021, he started his first livestreaming (直 播) sales event. He has held about 10 live events, getting nearly 4 million yuan. 

However, his most important job is still sending mails. Ruo'ergai is in mountainous area of western China where Tibetan and Qiang people live. The area has high mountains and difficult roads, so travel is dangerous here. Lhalung Dorje travels over 100 kilometers every week in these hard conditions. So far, he has traveled more than 500,000 kilometers and safely sent over 5 million packages. 

Lhalung Dorje's father was also a postman. "My father was my hero. He wore his uniform, carried his bag, and walked through the mountains," he said. As a child, he loved sitting on his father's bike, feeling warm even in winter. 

In 2007, Lhalung Dorje followed his father's example and became a postman. Over the years, he has faced many challenges, such as snowstorms, heavy rain, and falling rocks. Once, rocks fell on the road during a trip, but he still finished his work. These difficulties never stopped him. After short breaks, he always returned to his job. 

Lhalung Dorje's story teaches us about hard work and love for one's community. He not only sends packages but also helps local people sell their products. His life shows that even common jobs can make a big difference. 

Playing with apps on smart phones is very common among young people. Let's try some special apps and enjoy them.

Labor education can help people to be happy, active and creative in life. Through such classes, students can also learn the true meaning of labor and the value (价值) of labor. They can also learn different life skills.

Some schools prepared some interesting labor skill classes for students. Some students from Chongqing had a class about catching fish in the river and learned about the geographical knowledge (地理知识) of the river at the same time. In a town called Fengyi, students made tofu with a millstone (磨盘). Of course, they tasted tofu after they made it. Students said they learned about the wisdom of the ancestors (祖先). "They were really clever. How did the ancestors even think about making this kind of food?" many of them asked.

Some students learn how to look after animals at home. They also learn the biological (生物的) knowledge of the animals. Some students learn how to cook a dish in the labor skill class and then cook at home. They may share the videos of their cooking with their classmates. It is to share the delicious food. It is to share the happiness of labor, too.

Labor education plays a role in students' growth. Schools try to use different ways to help improve students' life skills so that students will have a bright future with hard-working hands.

The best time to visit Beijing is in September or October, because it's cool in these months. There are many old and great places to visit, such as the Great Wall, the Summer Palace and the Palace Museum.

Do you want to feel cool in the hot summer? Please go to Xining. And the best time to visit it is in July or August. The weather is pretty cool in summer. You may enjoy special dances and music and taste good food. But you might need a coat or a sweater because it's cold in the evening.

In most places of China, it's usually cold in winter. But Hainan is different. In winter, it's always warm there. So winter is the best time to visit Sanya. You'll probably enjoy swimming, diving or walking on the beach. Of course, you may taste all kinds of fruits and seafood. That's great!

Last Sunday, Zhang Mei (decide) to visit Hebei Museum. She wanted to know life was like in the past.

When she got there, she saw some (visitor) waiting at the gate. Ten minutes (late), she went into the museum. After (walk) around the museum for a while, she saw the famous Changxin Palace Lamp. It was the second floor. Some people were around the lamp. One old man said, "This lamp is really amazing." Zhang Mei (nod).

Then, she saw guide introducing the Changxin Palace Lamp to some people. She quickly joined (they) and listened carefully. The lamp is known as the (one) lamp in China. After listening to the guide, Zhang Mei felt that she was closer to the history ancient China.

When it was time (leave) the museum, Zhang Mei thought this visit was really a great experience. She hoped she could go there again.

Yesterday Mrs. Wood3 me a lot. I was helping repair the windows at her home. Mrs. Wood's sister came to4 her. They were talking in the living room. She told her sister how5 she is to have us. Not just because we often help her with chores, but also because we often talk with her. She often feels lonely,6     having neighbors like my family makes her feel very happy. Her sister7 us for our help.

I told them I was glad to help. When I was young, Mr. and Mrs. Wood often played and stayed with8. When my parents were busy with their work, they helped9 me. I should help her.

Helping others is an important part of life. It gives you a10 of happiness while making a difference in the world around you. I am happy that I can have a chance to make one person's life better.

Dear Designers, 

I'm Li Hua, a middle school student from China. I am happy to know that you are developing a robot named "Sharing Partner" to 

Yours sincerely, 

Li Hua

A person's name is a gift from their parents. In the past  few years, Chinese parents  (pick) popular names like Zihan and Zixuan a lot. But now, names such as Fusu and Yongxi are probably  (common), said Beijing News. These names show that parents still like to pick names from  (tradition) culture. 

In fact, the ancient parents also chose popular names for  (they) children. For example, when Confucianism spread in the Tang Dynasty (618-907), names including kindness and trust  (prefer) by people. Characters such as "ren" and "de" were very common. The Tang Dynasty official Di Renjie was known  being fair. In his life, Di also showed the kindness  intelligence that his name stood for. In the old days, people also followed many  (rule) when naming their children. They often picked names like "sheng" and "rong"  (show) their hopes for their children. 

They also avoided using characters from rulers' names out of respect. These rules showed that people believed  good name could help someone do well in life. 

Many of you may have heard of Tiangong Kaiwu.  But how much do you know about its writer, Song Yingxing?

Song was an excellent scientist during the late Ming dynasty.  He had a happy childhood. He and his brother Song Yingsheng went to school together. Both of them were very smart. Song won third place while his brother won sixth in the provincial imperial examination ( 科举考试). Later, Song and his brother took the national imperial examination, but they both failed. . 

Song worked as a teacher for many years. At the same time, he prepared for the national imperial examination six times.  On his several trips to the capital to take the exams, however, he learnt about the different technologies that were being used in different fields. His practical experiences and wide knowledge helped him create Tiangong Kaiwu in the 1630s. 

 The explanations about these technologies and tools are clear and detailed. There are also many illustrations ( 插 图 ) to help with the understanding of the text. The encyclopaedia became popular soon after it came out. 

Ragasa (桦加沙), the 18th typhoon of 2025, was a super typhoon with the maximum wind near the center reaching above level 17. 

Ragasa was predicted to bring extreme rainfall to southern coastal areas of China, with minimal effect on northern areas. While the typhoon's effects were expected to end by late September, but another typhoon moving west into the South China Sea could affect the area in early October might bring further wind and rain, requiring continued vigilance (警戒). 

Although Typhoon warnings would be cancelled as Ragasa weakened after landing, heavy rain and strong winds might still cause secondary disasters such as flooding, mudslides and landslides. Close attention was still essential. Generally, typhoons generated from June to August are classified as "summer typhoons", while those formed from September to November are referred to as "autumn typhoons". From 1949 to 2024, there were 867 "summer typhoons", making it the most active season for typhoons. "Autumn typhoons" totalled 859, accounting for 44% typhoons of each year, and ranking the second-most active period, China Media Group reported. 

Ragasa is an "autumn typhoon". According to weather data from 1949 to 2024, "autumn typhoons" tend to be stronger and have a greater effect compared to the summer ones, according to CMG. 

From August to September, the tropical( 热 带 的 ) ocean temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere(半球) reach the highest point, creating good conditions for typhoon formation and energy increase. As autumn sets in, cold air becomes more active, speeding up the wind near the typhoon's center, further leading to the intensification of the storm. As a result, the possibility of severe or super typhoons happening in the autumn is higher. Additionally, the combination of "autumn typhoons" and cold air can cause intense rainfall, leading to more severe disasters. 

Though oceans cover about 71 percent of the earth's surface, there's still a lot we don't know about them. Only about 20 percent of the seafloor has been mapped, and the remaining 80 percent is still a secret to us. Some scientists even think that 91 percent of sea animals have yet to be discovered. 

So why do we know so little about the deep sea? Well, getting to those depths is very difficult and requires high technology. The first navigable submarine (可驾驶的潜水艇), for example, was built in 1620, and it couldn't go more than five meters below the surface. For a long time, many scientists didn't even think that there could be any life at depths greater than 550 meters and didn't see much need to explore the deep sea. 

However, this changed in 1862 when life was discovered as far down as 945 meters below sea level with the help of a digging machine. Ten years later, around 4, 700 species unknown before were discovered. The discovery of new species has brought great hope to scientists in exploring the deep sea. 

Since then, high technology has been developed to help explore the deep sea, including satellites. But why is it so difficult? Well, at greater depths, it is freezing, everything is completely dark, and the pressure is greater than that on the surface. 

Though we have the difficulties, it's important that we understand the seas. They help control the earth's temperature, produce half of the oxygen in the air and provide us with information about climate change. Our future depends on learning more about our oceans, and it is possible for us to really understand what is ongoing below the surface.
