George Mallory was an English school teacher who loved 1 . In 1924, Mallory and a team of British climbers tried 2 the top of Mount Qomolangma, the highest mountain in the world. No one had ever done it before.
Mallory had already tried to 3 the top of Mount Qomolangma in 1921 and 1922, 4 he didn't succeed both times. In 1924, he started to climb again. On June 8th, 1924, he and 5 climber, Andrew Irvine, were only a few hundred meters 6 the top of the mountain. The other members of their climbing team watched 7 Mallory and Irvine climbed slowly up towards the top. However, the weather 8 was terrible, and soon the two men disappeared(消失). They never returned.
In 1953, Edmund Hillary from New Zealand, and Tenzing Norgay from Nepal, 9 reached the top of Mount Qomolangma. Most people thought that they were the 10 men to do this, but some people 11 whether Mallory and Irvine had got there first.
Many years 12, in 1999, Mallory's body was found on Mount Qomolangma, about 13 from the top of it. However, it is still unknown if he and Irvine 14 reached the top of the mountain.
Someone had once asked Mallory why he wanted to climb the most 15 mountain in the world. "Because it's there, "he answered.
For most of us, the idea of giving up our jobs to travel around the world seems impossible. However, one young couple has made it come true. What's more, they're getting a lot of money. How can they do this?
While traveling in Fiji in 2016, Jack Morris, 26, met his girlfriend Lauran Bullen. After that, they began to travel around the world together.
Now the two have become Internet stars with nearly three million followers from 45 different countries. To everyone's surprise, a simple photo taken during their trips can easily bring them thousands of dollars.
Talking in his blog Do You Travel, Jack shared many stories behind their wonderful photos. He said that they were used to taking photos at a certain time.
"Most of the time we like to take photos around one hour after sunrise. At this time of day, most places of interest aren't so busy," Jack wrote. He also said that they never dressed up their photos and tried to keep what they were like." People prefer a true life, I believe. "
Now the couple live in Bail. They are always posting inspirational(灵感的)photos to the Internet. At the same time, they are planning to visit one new country each month.
Good health depends on good lifestyles(生活方式). Read the follow advice and it can help you have good health.
Have a bedtime. Sleep is considered the third pillar(支柱)of health. As a result, getting enough sleep is important. One of the simplest things you can do to get enough sleep each night is to set a bedtime and follow it strictly.
Cut out sugar where you can. I used to have a sweet tooth. If you put cupcakes, ice-cream or cookies in front of me, I'd certainly eat them. But the more I learned about how much sugar is bad for my health, the more I realized I had to cut out sugar of my everyday food. Now instead of juice and soda, I only drink water. And I'm always trying my best to stay away from sugar.
Know when to stay off your phone. This is another thing I'm still trying to be better at. We're used to putting our eyes on those small screens. And we often forget something else that's more important. It's not friendly to let your friends wait while you are busy answering your e-mails.
Cook food yourself. Salad looks healthy. But when it's made with sugar in a restaurant, it can be different. The same goes for any other food. So the best way to truly know what you're eating is to just make it yourself.
You might eat dinner together as a family or you may all sit in the living room and watch TV, but you might not talk much. So a family meeting is necessary. If you have a busy family, a weekly meeting is a good idea. You can talk about a problem or make a plan in the meeting.
Having family meetings is a good way to improve(改善)communication among all family members. Everyone who lives in the home should be encouraged to join in the family meeting. That includes(包括)not only the nuclear family, but also any relative (亲戚)that lives in the house, such as grandparents or cousins.
Everyone in the meeting should get some time to talk. If some people don't want to talk, just ask them about the best thing that happened to them that day. It might help start the conversation(交谈).
You also need to make some simple rules for your meetings. " Only one person talks at a time" or" No smart phone use during meetings" may make everyone stay respectful(尊重人的). You can use your first meeting to make a few simple rules that everyone agrees on. If your kids have trouble waiting their turn to talk, you can find a fun way to let them know that only one person talks at a time. Use a pen or a ball to show that it's your turn to talk. When you finish speaking, you pass the pen or the ball to someone else.
Babies love chocolate and sometimes they also eat the paper around it. My cat enjoys a meal of good, thick paper, old letters, for example. She doesn't like old newspapers very much. Of course, the best paper comes from wood. Wood comes from trees, and trees are plants. Vegetables and fruit are plants, too, and we eat a lot of them. So can we also eat wood and paper?
Scientists say," All food comes in some way from plants." Well, is that true? Animals eat grass and grow fat. Then we eat their meat. Little fish eat little sea-plants, and then bigger fish swim along and eat them. Chickens eat bits of grass and give us eggs. What food does not come from plants in some way?
Scientists can do wonderful things with plants. They can make food just like meat and cheese. And they can make it without the help of animals. It's very good food, too. They have begun to say," We make our paper from wood. We can also make food from wood. The next thing is not very difficult." What is the next thing? Perhaps it is food from paper. Scientists say," We can turn paper into food. It will be cheaper than meat or fish or eggs. "
So please keep our old books and letters. (Don't feed your cat.) One day, they will be on your plate, if what scientists say may come true.
A. Talk it out B. Remember your pet C. What makes a pet die? D. A new animal for you E. Why am I feeling like this? |
My pet died-how can I feel better?
Every day when Elena came home from school, her cat Tomaso would run to great her. One day, Elena came home and her cat wasn't there. Her mom said that Tomaso had died.
Who has pets?
Millions of people across the world own pets. Maybe you have a pet, and maybe some of your friends do, too. A pet can be a special friend. It can play with you or just be with you when you don't feel like talking.
Unluckily, pets can't stay with us forever. Like all living things, they will die at some point. Sometimes a pet dies from old age. Sometimes a pet dies from an accident. Sometimes a pet gets too sick to live.
It's sad when a pet dies. You may feel lonely because your pet was your friend. To some kids, it may seem like no one understands what they are feeling. Someone said to Elena," You can get another cat. " But Elena knew she'd never have another cat just like Tomaso.
Elena decided to talk with her parents. Elena's parents told her about the pets they used to have and how it was difficult to say goodbye. At first, it can be hard to talk about the pet you're missing. You might want to forget about everything instead. But talking with someone you love is the best way to help you start to feel better.
When a pet dies, you and your family may want to find special ways to remember your pet. It can be a big help to share a sad thing with people you love. You might have a ceremony(仪式)for your pet or just share memories of fun times you had together. You might want to tell stories. You could write a poem, too. That's what Elena did.
As middle school students, we should not only know how to protect (我们自己), but we should know how to help people in trouble. Zhang Qiang is the boy who can help himself and others.
Zhang Qiang is a (有残疾的)student. There is something. (有毛病) with his left leg. But he never gives up. He often does (志愿者)work on weekends. For example, he tells stories to those lonely old people in the old people's home. Although it's difficult for him to walk to school, he keeps on doing so. At school, he gets on well with his classmates and teachers. He always gets good grades. He says, " I should (依靠)on myself and try my best to help others.
The earth is our home. We must look it well. That is to say we must keep the land, air and water clean.
But man has been polluting earth since he first made a fire. People washed their clothes in the river and threw dirty things on the ground. Many (year) ago, pollution has not so serious there were not so many people. When the land or the river became dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But. now, there is (little)clean air, land and water. Man is (pollute) the whole world and there neither enough clean air, nor clean land, nor clean water. More people, more pollution.
Is it possible to get rid of(解决)pollution? We are glad to say that people have come to know the (dangerous)of pollution and a large number of them are working hard (protect)our earth. One of the (good) ways is to stop the pollution.
