Vincent van Gogh (文森特·梵高) was born in the Netherlands in 1853. Although he enjoyed drawing from the time he was a young boy, Vincent had a number of other jobs before he decided to work as an artist full time. At around the age of 27, van Gogh decided to throw himself into art.

When Vincent first started drawing, he used lots of dark colors such as browns and dark greens. His pictures were often sad.

Much of what we know about Vincent comes from letters he wrote to his brother Theo. Theo worked in an art gallery (画廊) in Paris and supported Vincent. He sent Vincent money and encouraged him. Theo tried to sell Vincent's paintings, but no one wanted to buy them. Theo wrote to Vincent to tell him about a new style of painting in Paris called Impressionism (印象派). In 1886, Vincent moved to Paris to learn from some new painters. During this time Vincent began to use brighter colors.

Vincent liked to draw many things. He painted subjects from the streets and cafes of Paris as well as the countryside. He also became interested in painting portraits (肖像) of people. When he couldn't find models, he would paint himself for practice. He painted over twenty self-portraits during this time.

Although he wasn't famous during his lifetime, today van Gogh is considered one of the greatest artists of his time.

Singing in Sichuan dialects (方言) with energetic movements and mask-changing is not just a Sichuan Opera performance. It's the daily exercise for students of Mianyang Foreign Languages Experimental School in Sichuan Province.

"Sichuan Opera is a local opera, and it is now facing a challenge (挑战) in inheritance (传承). So, we worked with the Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection Center of Mianyang to create a simple and easy-to-learn Sichuan Opera exercise," said Shen Junhua, who is organising the school's exercise.

According to Shen, this new type of exercise has been practiced since 2017 and has been popular among students. When students enter the school, they will spend several weeks practicing it. At present, almost all of the students and teachers have mastered it.

"In fact, we had hardly heard of Sichuan Opera before teachers taught us how to do the Sichuan Opera exercise," said Li Yangwen, 14, an eighth grade student who also joined the school's Sichuan Opera club out of interest. "It's very different from normal exercises. After practicing it, we found it very beautiful and became interested in it. Now, almost all of the students look forward to our daily exercise time and feel excited to do it."

"By mixing opera with daily exercise, the daily class activity allows students to understand Sichuan Opera's culture", Shen said. After years of continuous effort to spread the traditional culture, the younger generation (一代人) will finally understand it.

The next important date in the history of photography (摄影术) was in 1837. That year, Daguerre, another Frenchman, took a picture of his reading room. He used a new kind of camera in a different way. In his picture you could see everything very clear, even the smallest thing. This kind of photo was called a Daguerreotype (达盖尔银版法照片).

Soon, other people began to use Daguerre's way. Travelers brought back wonderful photos from all around the world. People took pictures of famous buildings, cities and mountains.

In about 1840, photography was developed. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. That was not simple. The photographers had to carry a lot of film (胶片) and other machines. But this did not stop them. For example, some in the United States worked so hard.

Mathew Brady was a famous American photographer. He took many pictures of great people. The pictures were unusual because they were very lifelike (栩栩如生).

Photographers also became one kind of art by the end of the 19th century. Some photos were not just copies of the real world. They showed feelings, like other kind of art.

The Speeder doesn't have wheels like other motorcycles. It has a touch screen. Riders can turn the motorcycle around by touching the screen. Riders can also use the screen to talk to people on the ground.

According to the company's official website, the Speeder can fly as high as 4,500 m above ground. The Speeder has four engines (引擎). It can fly at a speed of 240 km per hour. That's much faster than a car. The Speeder runs on diesel fuel (柴油) and can fly for 10 to 22 minutes. In the future, the company will use clean energy to run the Speeder.

Do you know?

◆The Speeder riders must weigh less than 109 kg. If a rider is too heavy, it will be hard for the motorcycle to take off.

◆The Speeder riders must have a pilot's license (飞行员执照).

◆The Speeder can only be flown in the sky.

There are seven chickens at my home. I gave them all names and they are my good1. You may think that taking care of chickens is2, but sometimes chickens have minds of their own. If you show interest in keeping3, there are a few things you need to know.

Everything has its order. Chickens4 have the pecking (啄食) order. The order goes from the strongest, biggest chicken to the smallest,5 chicken. And it is the ranking (排位) of all the chickens. The chickens find out this order on their own. Putting chickens together is not easy. You have to make sure they all eat the same food. Otherwise, you have to keep6 apart.

You must pay more attention to baby chickens. You need to give very good food to them, so they can stay7 and become immune (免疫的).

You just have to know what you are doing and always be prepared. Chickens can bring families8. They can make family members happy. They are fun and humorous, beautiful and loving. They are also smart. It's amazing how9 they learn things on their own.

So why not consider10 some of your own feathered (有羽毛的) friends?

Humans naturally seek connections with family, friends or community members. Healthy bonds (关系) bring energy and support-we all need others to celebrate joys and share worries with. They alsoboostphysical health and help people live longer; research shows loneliness can slowly damage health. The key to connections isn't the number of relationships, but their quality.

How to build connections? Julia Clements, the event organizer, says there are many ways: in-person or online with friends, parents or teachers. Connections aren't limited to humans—some feel close to pets or nature. She suggests using actions and words: being kind, listening to others and trying new experiences work well.

Everyone may feel lonely and avoid talking sometimes. Remember connections change-some grow stronger, others fade (变淡). Clements advises sharing feelings with trusted people or safe organizations like Childline (儿童热线). They can help form new connections or fix strained (紧张的) relationships.

Every time I see people riding bicycles on the street, I think of the time I spent on my grandpa's old bike.

When I was a child, Grandpa looked after me because my parents were busy with  (they) work. At that time, only a few people  (have) bikes in our small town. Most people went everywhere  foot. Grandpa's house was far from my school,  it was not easy for me to go to school every day. Later, Grandpa  (buy) a bike. I still remember how happy I was to see it for the  (one) time. From then on, I went to school on Grandpa's bike. I always  (hug) my grandpa and sang songs  (happy). Grandpa rode the bike so carefully that I never  (fall) off or got hurt.

What  sweet memory! Now I am working in a big city and I miss my grandpa a lot. I wish I could return to those old days.

I am  math but I am good at English.
