Mr. and Mrs. Green lived in a big city. One summer they went to the country for their holiday. They enjoyed it very much because it was a quiet, clean place.
One day they went for a walk early in the morning and met an old man. He lived on a farm, and he was sitting in the warm sun in front of his house. Mr. Green asked him, "Do you like to live in this quiet place?"
The old man said, "Yes, I do."
Mr. Green then asked, "What are the good things about it?"
The old man answered, "Well, the people here know each other. They often come and visit me, and I often go and visit them. And there are also lots of children here."
Mr. Green said, "That's interesting, and what are the bad things?"
The old man thought for a moment and then said, "Well, the same things, really."

Movie theaters all over China were closed because of the COVID-19. So Lost in Russia became the first Chinese film to premiere (首映) online. Many people saw it as a milestone (里程碑) for Chinese film industry, as it showed the possible future of cooperation (合作) between the film and internet industries.
Directed and acted by Xu Zheng, the comedy(喜剧) is about a journey to Russia. The film tells that a middle-aged son wants to escape her mother's control.
It was planned to be released(发行) in theaters on January 25. But it was shown on video platform on January 24 instead. One day later, the film can be seen for free on mobile app and smart TV. Data showed that Lost in Russia was watched by more than 600 million people within three days.
Different from going to the theater, online premieres allow people to share their feelings by writing bullet comments (弹幕). During the premiere of Lost in Russia, there were over 100,000 bullet comments. They turned the film-watching experience into an online social activity.
Following Lost in Russia, two other films have premiered online so far: Enter the Fat Dragon on Feb 1 and The Winners on Mar 20.
Plastic snow falls from the sky.
When you think of the Arctic (北冰洋), you may imagine an icy land of white snow. And some people may imagine it as the last really clean place left on Earth. In fact, we have polluted the deepest oceans with plastic rubbish, and now, CNN says, "It's the Arctic's turn."
German scientists have recently found microplastics in Arctic snow. Microplastics are pieces of plastic smaller than 5 millimeters. Sadly, the scientists found 1,800 pieces of microplastics per liter (升) of snow. That may cause terrible air pollution.
How is plastic pollution reaching the Arctic? According to scientists, "It's clear that most of the microplastics in the snow come from the air. They fall off plastic objects and are moved by the wind. They mix with ice in the air and fall to the ground as snow."
Are they bad for us? We do know that our bodies cannot take in "large" pieces of microplastics. However, if the plastics are small enough, they can find ways into our bodies and stay there for a long time, which can be bad for our health.
Microplastics have also been found in rivers and oceans around the world. Research has found that they flow over long distances and into our oceans, damaging ecosystems (生态环境) along the way. When we wash clothes with plastic fibers (纤维), they start in our wastewater. The wastewater then flows into rivers and out to sea. They are eaten by sea animals there. If people then eat these animals, it means that we're eating the plastic as well.
① Wastewater flows into rivers and seas.
② People eat animals in the sea.
③ People wash clothes with plastic fibers.
④ Microplastics are eaten by sea animals.
Once a king got two nice falcons(猎鹰)from his son. He had never seen such beautiful falcons before. He loved them so much. .
After several months, the king came to see how the training was going on., while the other was staying on the branch of a tree quietly, just keeping still.
The king called all his falconers together and ordered them to try every way they could to make the other falcon fly..
One day, while the king was taking a walk in the forest, an idea came to his mind. Maybe someone who knew the natural environment well could solve this problem. He sent for a farmer who lived in the forest into his palace to train it at once.
The next morning, the king saw the other falcon flying above in the sky freely."!" shouted the king. "How could you make it happen?"
The farmer replied, "It's very easy. I just cut off the branch where the falcon rested."
.We all have "two flying wings" in our hearts as well, but we often seem not to notice them and stay where we feel for safety and comfort. We won't realize we can fly so high and freely until the "branch" we are resting on breaks.

B. It is unbelievable
C. He ordered the best falconer (猎鹰者) to train them to fly
D. It is always the same to human beings

There was a little shy rabbit in the forest. No one liked him except a deer(鹿).The deer always came to help the rabbit whenever he was in trouble. The rabbit was so happy to have such a good friend.
One day, while the rabbit and the deergames, a big bad lion came to the forest. When the lion was lying under a large tree, the rabbit and the deer went past and ran into him. At that moment, the lion felt very hungry, so he was really excited to see the rabbit and the deer and said, "I now, but you wake me up. So I you and eat you up!"
The rabbit was afraid. He thought to himself, "The deer and I good friends for many years. I must save both of us." Then he had an idea. He said, "Sir, you can't eat me. You the deer because he is much bigger than me!"
"You are right," the lion said, walking towards the deer. The deer was so afraid that he very fast. At the same time, the rabbit went to all the other animals and shouted, "The lion is a dangerous animal. If the deerby the lion today, some day we will be killed by it too.

After his words, all the other animals agreed with the rabbit. Therefore, they went the deer. The lion became afraid and ran away from the forest.
As we all know, self-confidence is the first key to success. So we often say, "Where there is a will, there is a way."
However, confidence isn't something you have to be born with—it can be learned. What can we do to become a confident person? I'd like to share some secrets with you.
Secret 1 Make confident friends.
Confidence can spread. I have a ton of confidence that comes from friends. They love and believe in me, and they are confident themselves. If you're less confident, find friends who feel good about themselves. They can make you feel good about yourself too.
— Li Guoqing
Secret 2 Show it till you feel it.
Just walking with your head held high and a smile on your face make people think you have all the confidence in the world. If you're always slouchy( 垂头丧气的), people will think you are shy and unconfident.
— Zhang Chenggong
Secret 3 Believe in yourself.
If you listen to your heart, you're not letting others tell you what you can or can't do. You naturally have confidence because you're doing what you believe in and know is right.
