The story of football began long before it became a global sensation. It has found its way to the most remote corners of the globe, (become) one of the hottest topics of the day. About 2,500 years ago in China there was a similar game called "Cuju", was the origin of football as a sport, according to the International Football Association,

The word cu means to kick, while ju refers to an ancient type of leather ball (fill) with feathers or grain chaff (谷壳).

The ancient Chinese historical text Zhan Guo Ce (Strategies of the Warring States) recorded it as one of various (form) of entertainment among the public. During the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), cuju was (common) played by soldiers for military training purposes. Cuju reached its peak during the Song Dynasty (960-1279) due to social and economic development, extending (it) popularity to every class in society.

However, Cuju began (decline) during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), and the 2,000-year-old sport eventually disappeared.

Fortunately, Linzi district (临淄区) (develop) the ancient game at the campuses of each primary and middle school so far. Cuju moves have been adapted into dances and morning exercises.

"Cuju, the ancient Chinese game, has gone beyond sports. It has become good platform to enhance exchanges and mutual learning among different civilizations," said Yu Jian, an inheritor (继承人) of cuju equipment manufacturing (制造) Linzi district of Zibo city.

When I stepped into senior high, the campus, equipped with its modern facilities,1 caught my attention. I was eager to2 everything. As an author of my own story, I was ready to take on the3 and pressures that came with senior high.

I used to be quiet and shy, not wanting to show my inner self. I cared much about what others thought about me,4 that someone would criticize me or unsatisfied with my performance.

Luckily, the teachers I met helped5 my initial fears. They put their trust in me and encouraged me to enjoy the senior high school life. I also met excellent classmates, who I admired a lot, both physically and6, and I was inspired to go all out in my own studies.

During lunch breaks, the gymnasium often hosted lively7, where students showcased their talents in diverse fields, such as pop music, dances, robotics, and so on. Walking through the hallways, I noticed colorful posters promoting (宣传) various8 like badminton, band, and piano. I was particularly9 to the exchange program, which promised exposure to new culture and a chance to broaden my view of the world.

Accept Your Feelings

The first step to any change is to accept what you feel. It is okay to feel stressed; it is okay to feel nervous; and it is okay to feel as if the world is going to end. It is only a natural human response to stress, and those feelings do not define (界定) you. Many of us do too, at various points in our lives.

If it is all too strong, just take a break from that task. For example, if you have been studying very hard for your science test but suddenly feel your heart is racing and you don't seem to remember anything, just stop what you are doing. Go to the kitchen and have a snack. Go outside and feel the breeze. Such actions will help you clear your mind and you will feel better when you return to that task.

Make a List

Sometimes you may feel overwhelmed when you have too many things to do. Perhaps there are too many topics to study, or you may have a long to-do list when organising a birthday event. Writing this down is a good idea as it would help you to make the different tasks. This gives you some structure to work with, and you will feel calmer at the end of writing the list—you would have a better understanding of the task and yourself.

Learn to Say ‘No'

Where you can help it, say ‘no'—learn to set boundaries for yourself. For example, if your friend asks you to go shopping with her to buy a gift for her mother but you know you have to study for an important test, say no to her. You wouldn't want to stress yourself out when you end up not having enough time to study for the test.

Learning to manage intense emotions takes time and practice. Always be in touch with yourself, and learn what works best for you. You only have one YOU.

A. Step away.

B. Focus on yourself.

C. So, put yourself first, and excuse yourself.

D. There is nothing wrong with you feeling this way.

E. You are bound to feel more at ease at the end of it.

F. Dealing with strong feelings does not come easy for many of us.

G. Then, rank the tasks in order of priority, depending on the importance or urgency.

The study used data from a larger project called the VITAL trial. In this study, over 1,000 adults (women aged 55+ and men aged 50+) were followed for five years. Some people took 2,000 units of vitamin D and 1 gram of omega-3 every day. Others took a placebo. The scientists checked their telomere length at the beginning, after two years, and after four years.

The results showed that vitamin D helped slow the shortening of telomeres. This may mean that vitamin D slows biological aging by about three years. However, omega-3 did not show any effect on telomere length.

Experts say these results are interesting, but they want more research. The study was small, and it only looked at one type of cell. Scientists still do not know how this connects to real-life health outcomes.

Vitamin D has other known health benefits. It can help keep bones strong, lower blood pressure, and reduce the risk of diabetes and heart disease. But too much vitamin D can cause health problems, like high calcium levels or kidney issues.

To get vitamin D, people can spend time in the sun, take supplements, or eat certain foods. These include fatty fish like salmon and tuna, egg yolks, and vitamin D-fortified milk. Some mushrooms and cheese also contain small amounts.

Doctors say it's best to check your vitamin D level before taking supplements. In healthy people with normal levels, extra vitamin D might not be helpful. Good sleep, exercise, a healthy diet, and not smoking are still the best ways to stay young and healthy.

My first day started in Lima, the capital of Peru. I met with the G Adventures representative (代表) here about the tour. G Adventures is an organization that helps you to connect with other like-minded people in small group-based travel adventures. They played a big part in helping to make Peru an unforgettable experience for me! In Lima, my representative discussed the plan of my tour, and I also had the chance to explore Lima in my own time, with many activities, including a city tour, show, biking tour, and more.

Day two had me taking a flight from Lima to Cusco. Many people visit Cusco for shopping but for me, the main reason for spending a day or two in Cusco was to acclimatize (适应) to the altitude (海拔). As I'd decided to reach the wonder of Machu Picchu, acclimatizing became important to avoid altitude sickness. I was happy to spend a day exploring Cusco. Cusco was once the capital of the Inca Empire. Today, it's famous for its artists, paintings, clothing and traditional instruments. There's something for everyone in this city.

The day finally came! Day three had me enjoying a lovely guided visit to Machu Picchu at sunrise. I had free time to explore the city on my own as well as with my guide. It was a lot to take in! I had to stop for a moment and felt the energy of such an ancient city. The history here was unbelievable and I will never forget my time here for as long as I live!

Jane's path to science was unconventional. Unable to afford university, she worked as a secretary and later saved money by serving as a waitress to fund her dream of traveling to Africa. In 1957, at age 23, she met famous anthropologist Louis Leakey in Kenya. Leakey, seeking someone with an "open mind and patience" to study wild chimpanzees, chose Jane despite her lack of formal training. In 1965, she earned a PhD in ethology (生态学) from Cambridge University, becoming one of the few students without an undergraduate degree to do so.

In 1960, Jane arrived at Gombe Stream National Park in Tanzania. Jane observed chimps using sticks to "fish" for termites (白蚁) and modifying stems to create tools — proving humans weren't the only species capable of such behavior. She documented chimps hugging, fighting, and even waging "wars" over territory, revealing their capacity for both love and violence. By naming chimps like Flo, Fifi, and Frodo, Jane challenged the practice of numbering animals, emphasizing their unique identities.

Jane's discoveries redefined humanity's relationship with nature. In 1977, she founded the Jane Goodall Institute, which protects chimps and habitats .Her Roots & Shoots program, launched in 1991, inspires millions of students worldwide to solve environmental and humanitarian issues. Because of her contributions, she won UNESCO Peace Prize, and the 2025 U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Jane Goodall passed away in her sleep on October 1, 2025. Her life teaches us that curiosity, kindness, and persistence can transform the world. Her story isn't just about chimps — it's about recognizing our shared humanity with all living beings. As she often reminds us, "The least we can do is try."

Susan, Max, and Alex were inseparable friends who shared a deep love for the great outdoors and always overcame difficulties together they met. For weeks, they had been planning their latest camping adventure on weekends. This trip was special — they had chosen a spot by a river, far from the busy city. As they finally hit the road on a sunny Saturday morning, they were very excited.

After a few hours of driving through winding roads, they arrived at their destination. The campsite was everything they had hoped for — a peaceful spot by a gently flowing river, surrounded by towering trees. Without wasting any time, they set up their tent, gathered firewood, and started a fire to cook their dinner. The smell of grilled (烤) sausages filled the air as they sat around the fire, sharing stories and laughing at old memories. For a moment, everything was perfect.

As the night grew darker, the forest, once alive with the singing of birds, seemed terrifyingly quiet. Suddenly, they heard a strange noise coming from the woods. It sounded like something was moving through the bushes. Susan, who had always been more careful and resourceful, suggested they go inside the tent. But Max and Alex, ever the adventurers, wanted to investigate and challenge themselves. Armed with their flashlights, they headed into the woods. Susan, who was a bit worried, didn't want to be left alone and followed them, with a spoon and a pot in her hands in case of danger.

The deeper they walked into the forest, the louder and more intense the noise became. The beam (光线) of their flashlights cut through the darkness, revealing nothing but the thick bushes. Leaves rustled (沙沙作响) and the air grew heavy with tension. Just as they were about to turn back, a sudden movement caught their attention. From the shadows appeared a wild pig. The pig took a step closer, smelling the air as if searching for food. Max and Alex froze in fear, not knowing how to deal with the situation.
