I was looking forward to the school orienteering(定向越野) race. Orienteers find their way1 a map and a compass. I loved all kinds of maps and the race was a great way to train my sense of 2

The orienteering site was an area of forest and farmland, with three check points. When my group needed a leader, I was too3 to volunteer right away. I didn't like to be the centre of attention. At that time, Kevin claimed he knew all about orienteering, 4 he took the map and compass and became the leader. 

However, he5 took a quick look at the map before setting off. I advised reading the map to plan the route but he refused. 

We hiked for a long time till I had a feeling that we had6 the first checkpoint. 

"Excuse me, " I said. "I think we' re heading the 7 way. May I see the map?"

Kevin was no longer that confident. He handed over the map and compass, and then looked at me. "Maybe8 can lead the way for a while, " he said I checked our9 on the map. We were certainly off the way. We could go back and try again but it was getting dark. Everyone would 10 us if we arrived very late. 

So I made another11 . I led the group onto a wild path that would finally join the main route. But as we got farther into the woods, the path got harder and harder to walk on. I started to12 my map-reading skills. Just as I began to think we might get lost, we saw the last checkpoint! Although we were the last group to finish the race, everyone was13 . 

The next day at school, many kids were interested in14 used a map to get us back on the right way. I seemed to be the hero who15 the hiking way. found it wasn't so bad to be the centre of attention. 

What might you overthink about? How can you deal with it?(不超过20词)

On solar farms, there are many solar panels(太阳能板) standing in the sun. They need sunlight to make electricity. However, if grass grows too tall, it will stop sunlight from reaching the panels. Now many solar farms practise solar grazing by keeping sheep there. Sheep eat grass, walking safely between the panels without breaking anything

Solar grazing has many benefits. First, it is friendly to the environment. In the past, people used gas-powered machines to cut the grass. But they were bad for the environment. When sheep come to eat grass, people do not need to use these machines any more. It saves gas and also reduces air pollution. Second, farmers save money on cutting grass and feeding sheep. At the same time, more money comes from selling sheep and other products. Besides, local schools and community groups can visit these farms and learn about green farming and energy. It also teaches young people to care for the environment

Though solar grazing might seem like an easy win, there can be challenges. For one thing, the sheep stay quietly in one place around the panels, but they should move often to keep the grass under control. This means farmers need to move both the fences and the sheep from time to time. For another, sheep are easily attacked and harmed by animals like wolves, bears and lions. The fences are not strong enough to keep dangerous animals away. What's more, some farms have poor-quality grass. It is not healthy for sheep, so they cannot grow strong or work well. That's why not every solar farm is ready for sheep. 

If people want to make full use of solar grazing, they may need to make changes. Some new companies are trying different high-tech tools to make it easier and faster to manage sheep on solar farms. 

The gray cub(幼崽) lived in a cave with his mother, a she-wolf. Each day he grew, learning more about the world outside their home. 

Soon the cub went out again. Every day he went further from the cave. He didn't get lost. But a time of hunger came. Neither he nor his mother found food. Then finally his mother brought home some strange meat——a lynx(山猫) kitten. 

Later the cub lay sleeping by his mother's side when a deep snarl came. There in the front of the cave stood the mother lynx. A terrible fight followed. The lynx cut with her claws and teeth, the she-wolf with her teeth. The cub joined in, biting the lynx's back leg again and again, which helped his mother. 

At last, the lynx was dead. But the she-wolf was very weak. She lay by the dead animal's side for a day and a night without moving. The she-wolf and the cub ate the lynx each day and soon their wounds healed(痊愈). 

The gray cub went out for food with his mother now. He learned how she killed animals and started to help her. And he learned the law of meat. There were two kinds of life: those that could be eaten, and those that could eat him. The law was: EAT, OR BE EATEN. 

He saw the law working all around him. He ate the lynx kitten. The lynx mother wanted to eat him, but he and his mother ate her first. And so it went on. He was a killer and his only food was meat.

One summer morning, Lila was helping her grandma clean the old attic (阁楼) of their small house, While sorting through a dusty box, she found a worn leather journal with a faded blue cover. 

"Grandma, what's this?" Lila asked, holding up the journal. Grandma's eyes lit up. "That's my diary from when I was your age. I wrote down every adventure I had with your great-aunt Mabel when we were kids. "

Lila's curiosity grew. She opened the journal and saw neat, curly handwriting. The first entry was about a summer when Grandma and Mabel spent weeks building a treehouse in the big oak tree behind their house. They collected old wood, painted it bright yellow, and even hung a tiny

wind chime made of sea glass. 

"Did you finish the treehouse?" Lila asked eagerly. Grandma smiled. "We did! We spent every sunny afternoon there, reading books, eating lemonade, and planning our future trips. It was our secret place. 

As Lila read more entries, she learned about Grandma's first day of high school, her first pet rabbit, and the summer she learned to swim in the nearby lake. Each page was filled with small, happy moments that made Lila feel like she was right there with her grandma. 

That night, Lila started her own journal. She wrote about finding Grandma's diary, the stories she'd heard, and her dream to build a treehouse of her own. She wanted to fill her journal with adventures, just like her grandma did. 

Fuse beads, also own as"Ping Dou" in China, is a popular way for teenagers to relax. They' re small, colorful plastic(塑料的) beads. You can put them on a pegboard (小钉板) to make shapes like stars, hearts or animals. It's also pixel(像素) art. Fuse beads mainly come in three sizes: 2. 6mm for small pictures, 5 mm for most users, and 10mm for children. Here are the materials and steps. 

Tiny beads,big messages.It's a beautiful reminder that small efforts, when joined together, create something powerful.

More and more people keep pets these days. Want to go on vacation together with your pets? Great news is here for you!

Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport has built a new terminal (航站楼). It hopes to give a better travel experience to passengers flying with their pets.

The terminal is more than 2,000 square metres in size. From the outside, the terminal looks like a colourful candy box. Inside, it's clean and comfortable too. It offers (提供) many different services for pet travel, such as health checks and ticket bookings.

To meet passengers' needs, there is also a pet hotel in the terminal. It can take care of 17 to 30 pets at the same time. The pet rooms are special and cool. Cats have climbing spaces, and dogs have play areas. During their stay, the pets can get fresh food twice a day. They can also enjoy two hours of outdoor activities. Pet owners can watch their pets through their mobile phones anytime.

Starting from May, pet owners can book the new services online. Ms Tang tried the service and said, "It's a big change for air travellers like me. It used to take me much more time, but now this service makes pet travel quick and easy, cutting the preparation time from a week to just 2 days. And for pets, they can now travel more easily."

A study shows that 25% of air travellers have pets. So, it's important to have more pet-friendly airports. Let's hope more airports will follow Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport's example and create better airport pet terminals.

Ya Ya, a panda, began her trip China on Wednesday from the Memphis Zoo in the USA. She there from 2003 to 2023. YaYa and Meng Lan, as two of the eleven are the most famous stars.

In 2003, YaYa moved to Memphis Zoo. She became one of the animals there. Now YaYa is 23 years old and she lives quietly in her new home in Beijing Zoo. She is becoming happier and.

Meng Lan is younger than YaYa. His parents are big stars, Meng Lan became famous when he was a baby. Many people like Meng Lan because he is handsome and outgoing.

Quite a few people think watching the videos of pandas is. On December 15th, 2021, many visitors saw Meng Lan on the top of a two-meter high wall. His videos of the wall also got popular on the Internet. Then many people hoped to see the lovely panda and take some photos.

Now there are a great number of in the zoo every weekend.

Many parents like "survival holidays" because they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend most time watching TV and playing computer games. "Survival holidays" can make a big difference to their life.

Is "survival holidays" a great idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. And they need to be on their own. Parents like to see their children join in activities, but they think the activities should be controlled (被控制) by grown-ups. Children don't know what to do when they meet difficulty. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard thing. Children usually don't know what to do in the face of danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.

The survival activities are good for children. Even years later they will still remember what they learnt. Some learnt to keep their heads clear in dangerous times. Some learnt how to stay away from danger. Others learnt how to work in a team. All these will help them a lot in their life.

②Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At one to three years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns (刺) to stop animals going near.

③At the age of four years old, trees begin to grow very quickly and become strong enough to face many difficulties later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit.

④When the tree is 20 to 25 years old, it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. Not only does the adult tree give us shade (树荫), oxygen (氧气) and natural beauty, it is also a great place for a tree house, or a place for us to read a book, listen to music and so on. If the adult tree can be taken good care of, it will go on to live healthily for many years.

⑤Little by little, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow (空心的) or part of it becomes dead, it becomes a home to small animals and is a source of food for many other animals.

⑥In many ways, the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience. When looking at the life of a tree, we learn that each period of life brings its own kind of happiness and difficulties. Enjoy every minute of life of it and take care of the trees!
