When I was in second grade, I did something that really taught me a lesson. After finishing my homework on a sunny weekend, I was thinking about what to do for fun. Then my best friend, Eric, called me and asked me to go for a bike ride in a park near our school. I readily agreed.

I got on my bike and couldn't wait to fly to the park. As soon as I entered the park, I saw Eric, who was reading a book on a stone bench. How could this fellow be so quiet today? What a rare thing! I shouted to him, "Eric, I'm coming!" But Eric remained the same. This guy became crazy about reading. What book interested him so much?

It was not until I patted him on the shoulder that he looked up. Eric quickly put his book on the bench, smiled at me and said, "I'm so sorry! Now let's start riding!" Then we rode our bikes freely in the vast park. After a while, we went on our own routes to enjoy the fun. Suddenly, I found myself riding to the stone bench where Eric had just sat, and I noticed the book again. It raised my curiosity greatly. I thought to myself, "What kind of book could it be that made him so captivated (着迷)?" I stopped and bent down to pick up the book. Wow! A Little Story, a Big Lesson. This was the book of my dreams! Suddenly, an idea came to my mind: Take the book away secretly!

I looked around, but there was no sign of Eric, so I put the book into my jacket, looked for Eric and deliberately rode my bike past him in the park. I told him that there was something urgent going on at home, so I had to leave first. Eric smiled and said goodbye to me. Then I hurried home on my bike. When I passed the living room, my mother saw me and asked, "What's that bilge (鼓起) in your jacket?" "Oh. Nothing…," I replied. Then I slipped into my room and opened the book.

I woke up by my dog barking in the early morning. I went outside to find a koala (考拉) at the yard gate wanting to enter. It was the first time that I had 1  a koala in my neighborhood. What a welcome 2  !

I was wondering why he was here, as koala 3 came down from the trees and didn't like walking, either. 4 , there was no eucalyptus (桉树) around. Was he hungry or lost? Or maybe the bushfire across Kangaroo Island 5 him here?

He just sat there, clearly 6  , and sort of looked at me with a look, like helping me out of my suffering. At a(n) 7  look, I discovered a long cut at his back with bloods, 8  of attacks or cuts of something sharp in some other way.

I rushed into my room and came out with some iodophor (碘伏药水). It was not a 9  problem as I was a nurse. This poor koala seemed to quite 10  my kindness when I 11  the cut with the liquid. It 12  out that he came to ask me for 13  !

After the treatment, I watched the koala finally 14  in the wild, hoping he was able to 15  the hard time and live his life as he should.

You may find lots of amazing people in your school who you admire. Actually, amazing students are unique individuals who have discovered and chosen to follow a few universal truths.  Here are some tips that can help you.

Remain organized. Amazing students know that their time and resources are valuable.

They always keep test dates in mind. So they set aside time for studying and time for social lives. Similarly, you should also do all of this.

Amazing students recognize the limits of knowledge. They aren't shy to ask questions. When they need additional help, they quickly turn to their professors for help. They also find out additional resources, such as instructional videos, on topics that confuse them.

Accept and look for feedback(反馈）。Negative(负面的）comments are hard to hear and easy to ignore. Amazing students, however, aren't defeated by negative comments.They use negative comments to improve their academic performance. So you should also read through your teacher's comments on papers, tests and exams, and carry out the suggested changes in your future learning.

Amazing students are curious about the world around them. They often pay much attention to world cultures and social events. In an effort to increase your knowledge, allow your natural curiosity to lead you to increase new knowledge and equip you with new skills.

A. Learn from those around you.

B. Stay curious and keep learning.

C. What makes an amazing person?

D. Do you want to be amazing at school?

E. Thus, to be an amazing student, don't be afraid to ask for help.

F. As a consequence,they manage their time and resources wisely.

G. Occasionally, they'll even ask their professors for ways to improve.

Your eyes pick up colour using a type of cell called cones (视锥) in your retina (视网膜). The same is true for dogs, though our cones aren't exactly the same.

Humans have three types of cones, which enables us to see different shades of red, blue violet (蓝紫色), and green. Dogs have two types of cones that pick up blue-violet and yellow shades. This means that dogs see in a similar way to humans who are red-green colour blind.

"They don't see red or green and they see everything in shades of blue and yellow," says Jay Neitz, PhD, a researcher and professor at the University of Washington.

Humans may have the advantage in colour vision but dogs definitely have us beaten in the area of night vision. This is because dogs' eyes have more light-gathering power than ours. A dog's retina is largely composed (由……组成) of cells called rods. which can sense light, even in very low-light conditions.

Dogs are especially good at sensing movement. "The increased number of rods in the dog's retina also increases their ability to discover movement," Sypniewski says. This ability can help them discover small animals like squirrels.

Dogs have a wider field of vision than humans. Dogs' eyes are set slightly farther apart than humans' eyes, so they can see further to the side in each direction.

Dogs have trouble seeing things very close up. Dogs can see objects clearly if they're at least 13 to 20 inches away from their eyes, "but if the object is closer, the image may be blurry," Sypniewski says. Humans can see objects slightly closer—about 10 inches away from the eye.

Dogs may recognize you by your shape and movement. "If your dog recognizes you from a distance (远处), it is not because it can see the details of your face like a human would, but rather because of your shape or the way you move." Neitz says.

Have you ever considered all the English expressions that include words about clothes? Let's have a look.

People wear pants to cover the lower part of their bodies. We sometimes say that people who are nervous have ants in their pants. Sometimes, people may get caught with their pants down. They are found doing something they should not be doing. And, in every family, one person takes control. Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do. Then we say she wears the pants in the family.

Pants usually have pockets to hold things. Money that is likely to be spent quickly can burn a hole in your pocket. Sometimes you need a belt to hold up your pants. If you have less money than usual, you may have to tighten your belt.

I always praise people who can save their money and not spend too much. I really take my hat off to them. Yet, when it comes to my own money, I spend it at the drop of a hat, which means I instantly spend it.

Boots are a heavy or strong kind of shoes. People who are too big for their boots think they are more important than they really are. I dislike such people.

My father is an important person. He runs a big company. He wears a suit and tie, and a shirt with sleeves that cover his arms. Some people who do not know him well think he is too serious and never shows his feelings openly. But I know that my father wears his heart on his sleeve.

I'm in middle school, and not that good at reading. I am a little behind and hate the books we are made to read. But I want to get better at reading. I don't like being the weakest reader in the class. I want to change. I know I need help when it comes to reading. I'm hopeful that I can overcome (克服) my weakness if I try to find some ways and work hard.

So I go to the library every weekend. Last Saturday I went straight to the Young Adult section to search. There were hundreds of books to choose from. Finally, I saw a cover that was shiny, and it reflected (反射) the light and caught my eye. I saw that it was blue — I liked blue. So I picked it up and read the back. It sounded interesting, although it was the second book in the series, I got it. I read that book in two days, and found it was so attractive, so I read the whole series in a week.

By judging (判断) a book by its cover, I was not only able to pick up a book that became one of my favourites, but I also didn't have to pick up hundreds of books that I may not like. If I never judged a book by its cover, I might have never found that book in the first place.

This advice is suitable for other things in life as well, especially when it comes to people. It's not always exact, but by judging a person by their appearance — the way they dress, talk, and act — you can quickly see if you want to read their general condition by having a conversation with them. If you enjoy them like you enjoy a good book, then you can keep them in your inner circle — the people that you care about and who care about you.

For students or teachers who are planning an educational trip to China, or parents who want to arrange educational and meaningful things to do in China for children, here we offer travel tips on what to do and learn for educational tour in China.

▶How to make dumplings. Dumpling is the most common food in China, and it has so many fans in the world for its deliciousness, and has become a must-order food in a Chinese restaurant for foreigners. Dumpling in China is easily home-made food, and most families would make it by themselves. While having an educational trip to China, you could learn how to make dumplings.

▶How to make Chinese traditional handicrafts (手工艺品), like Chinese knots (结), and paper-cutting. Small fine Chinese traditional handicrafts are very beautiful and have blessings (祝福) for life, thus people would like to make them and put them in houses. Chinese knot is made by strings through special weaving, and it has blessings of safety, health and happiness, and you could hang it in houses or cars. Chinese paper-cutting is pasted on window glass, and used to decorate houses in Spring Festival, and it could be designed into different shapes, such as animals, flowers, and letters. You could totally get this two skills, and make Chinese knot and paper cutting to decorate houses.

▶How to make terracotta warriors (兵马俑), china, and pottery. When visiting Terracotta Warriors, you would admire its greatness and excellent skills. But please remember, you could make your own terracotta warriors and bring them home. Outside the Terracotta, there are stores for you to experience how to make terracotta warriors. Besides terracotta warriors, you could also go to experiential stores to learn how to make china and pottery.

When Marco was a boy, he tried everything to get his father's love and attention. He worked hard to earn exceptional marks and always tried to behave well. But he was so sensitive and shy that he always hid behind his hair, which he wore long around his face. To make it worse, Marco was naturally shorter than the other kids. This added to his already low self-confidence.

At 14, he and his younger sister Sandra moved in with their dad and his new wife. His father was busy and their communication was nonexistent. The only time his dad ever spoke to him was to be demanding or critical. He began to fear coming home from school every day, feeling desperately alone and isolated. 

One day his father, tripped over Marco's bike in the garage. The angry reaction left Marco in despair, thus crying out, "That's it! I'm going to kill myself."

"You don't even have the guts!" replied his father.

For two days, all Marco could think of was wanting to die, but he didn't want to prove his father was right. Angry and sad, Marco was stuck.

Two days later, his aunt called him. This seemed like a miracle. Aunt Ginette usually only called on his birthday. She said she had just seen some young teenagers participate in a public speaking contest and she thought about him. She told him she firmly believed he could perform on stage like those kids, since she had seen him do skits (幽默短剧) for the family at Christmas. 

Marco was shocked. Him? In a public speaking contest, which was contrary to his shy personality? But Aunt Ginette was sure it was something he could do. Feeling her strong belief, Marco agreed. 

All that winter, twice a week after dinner, he took three different buses in each direction for the three-hour round-trip to practice in the place where the competition would take place. Marco was taken by a feeling he never felt before. The hours and the obstacles no longer counted. The criticism from his father around his absence for after-dinner chores didn't matter.

China has many famed explorers. There was Zhang Qian,  traveled into Central Asia,  (open) corridors of trade that became the Silk Road. Zheng He was a great mariner in the 15th century. Yet these voyages  (undertake) under the direction of governments Xu Xiake was different. 

Born in 1587, Xu Xiake grew up in a rich family. Yet he rejected the  （comfort) life to travel the lost world of imperial China. As one of the greatest land explorers, Xu Xiake is said  (travel) thousands of miles of Chinese mountains and rivers on foot in his lifetime. The written work of Xu Xiake's travel records and diaries contains some 404, 000 Chinese characters,  enormous work for a single author of his time. It mixes  (detail) of geography, botany and local history with the ratings of the Ming Dynasty lodgings (住宿). 

"On the surface, Xu's travel can neither be classified as great affairs of state great undertakings that changed the course of history." writes the cultural historian Zheng Peikai. "Xu traveled to satisfy his own (curious) — he traveled for the sake of traveling."

Xu Xiake traveled across China for 34 years. Perhaps his (great) journey was his last. At age 50, he traveled to the tropical frontiers of Yunnan. Hundreds of years later, we follow. Naturally, he is the father of Chinese backpacking.

In the summer of 2018, I decided to do a solo expedition (独自探险) across Antarctica. To get some 1 , I did a two-week training course. I learned all the 2 : how to camp in the snow, how to pull a sled and what clothing to wear. In October, I flew to Antarctica from Punta Arenas. I'd allowed 70 days, which would make it the longest 3 one-way expedition across Antarctica

I only took 4 . I didn't even take a hairbrush. The first few days were 5 . The winds were about 60 mph, and my sled weighed 120 kg. Even if the visibility is good, you can't 6 much — it's a white horizon. I was on the move for 13 to 15 hours a day.

Then, I found the conditions to be much worse. There was more sastrugi (雪脊) and it felt colder. The last 40 hours were really hard. I 7  about 14 times every two hours. As a result, I fell behind 8 . In the end, I 9  922 miles and fell more than 100 miles short of my goal. Towards the end of my trip, a helicopter flew to pick me up. The 10  I felt when I saw the dot in the distance was unbelievable.

It took me a while to be 11 of what I'd achieved, because I had failed to reach my 12 goal, but I've learned it's 13 to move the goalposts. I don't agree with the idea of conquering (征服) somewhere. You treat places with 14 and hope they'll allow you 15 passage.
