A young couple decided to go camping in the mountains to celebrate their first year of marriage. They took all the things they would need with them to go camping-warm clothes, food and a tent.
They went up to the mountains and found the perfect place to set up their tent. After that, they decided to go for a hike to see more of the mountains. After a long hike, they went back to their camp, built a fire and cooked dinner. Finally, it was time to go to sleep.
Sometime in the middle of the night, the wife woke her husband up and said," Look up at the sky. What do you see?" Her husband answered," I see millions of stars." His wife said," That's right. What does that mean to you?"
The husband said, " Well, if there are so many stars out there, that means there might also be a planet just like the planet we live on, And if that's true, then there could be life on one of those planets, That's kind of exciting!" His wife said," You are wrong. It means that someone has stolen our tent!"
Last year, I worked in a middle school near my mother's house, and I stayed with her for a month. During that time, I helped her do some housework and buy some food.
After the first week, I noticed that the food was eaten up very quickly. Then I began keeping an eye on my mum. To my surprise, I found that she would put some of the food into a paper bag and go out with it at about nine every morning. And finally, I decided to follow her. I saw her taking the food to the street children. She would also spend a lot of time talking and playing with them.
One day, I talked to a neighbor and found out that my mum was well-known in the area. The children were very friendly with her and even thought of her as their own mother. Then it hit me--why wouldn't she want to tell me about it? Was she worried that I would stop buying food if I found out?
When my mum got home, I gave her a big hug. I told her she didn't need to keep it a secret from me. And she told me something about the children. Some of them lived with an old lady in a small house. Others slept on the street. For years, she was helping the poor street children by giving them food. After she told me everything, I was so moved by how selfless she was. She helped others in need. As her son, I was so proud of my mum.
I continued to buy food for my mum after that. But I always added one more bag for her other children.
When people think of tigers, words like" strong" and " dangerous" come into their mind. But now, the big animal is calling for our help. There were once eight kinds of tigers in the world, but three died out during last century. In the past 70 years, the number of Siberian tigers has gone from as many as 300 to somewhere between 18 and 22.
World Wildlife Fund started a programme. It is about to put an end to tiger poaching(非法狩猎) and save wild tigers. China, together with 12 other countries, has joined in. The aim is to double the number of wild tigers in the next ten years.
According to the research by Chinese officers and WWF, the Siberian tiger is already one of the planet's most endangered animals. "If the government doesn't do anything, it's quite possible that there will be no more Siberian tigers in China in 10 to 20 years." said Zhu Chunquan, director at WWF Beijing office.
Wild animals such as deer and wild bears are tigers' main food. The poaching of these animals is the greatest danger to tigers. Another one is the trap(陷阱). "Volunteers from WWF remove traps every year, but we cannot clear all the traps ourselves," Zhu said. The most important thing people can do is to save the animals tigers eat." To protect the tigers, we need to call on more people to stop hunting wild animals."
Huawei planned to develop its own operating system(操作系统). Huawei planned to use it as early as autumn in 2019 or spring in 2020 at the latest.
"But that is our plan B," said Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei's consumer business group. "We would prefer to work together with the system provided by Google and Microsoft."
The decision was made after the US government planned to ban(禁止) the sale of American technology to the company. Google decided to cut off some of Huawei's products from its Android operating system. As a result, users of some Huawei products can't install(安装) their favorite apps from the Google Play Store.
Huawei has had the plan to develop its own operating system since 2012. The company said that its own operating system would be used if they could no longer use systems like Android.
Its self-developed operating system is named "HongMeng". According to Yu, the new operating system will be able to support a lot of produces, including smartphones, computers, tables, TVs, automobiles and some other products.
According to IT experts, building an operating system is very difficult. But Huawei knows that as a big technology company, it have to have its own technology. And the company is fully prepared for the challenge.
Happiness is the only true measure (估量) of personal success. Making other people happy is the highest expression of success. If you can make others happy, you'll be successful. But it's almost impossible to make others happy if you're not happy yourself. Here are some pieces of advice that can help increase the amount of happiness in your life.
Start each day with expectation. When you rise from bed, make your first thought: "Something wonderful is going to happen today." Guess what? You're possibly right.
Take time to plan and deal with something first. The most common cause of stress is the feeling that you've got too much work to do. Pick one thing that will move you closer to your goal in life. Then do it first.
Give a gift to everyone you meet. I'm not talking about a real present. Your gift can be your smile, a word of thanks or encouragement, a gesture of politeness, even a friendly nod.
Turn off "background" TV. Many families leave their TVs on as "background noise" while they're doing other things. The purpose of broadcast TV(电视购物) is to make you dissatisfied with your life so that you'll buy more things.
End each day with gratitude (感恩). Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened. It might be something as small as making a child laugh or something as huge as a million dollar deal. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never come again.
The first cartoons appeared in newspapers. They told (story) using pictures. In the film, an artist (draw) pictures of two faces on a blackboard. The faces came to life. They smiled and a small dog jumped through a ring.
There were lots of animals in early cartoons. Walt Disney started to make films in 1920s. Some of (he) earliest films were about a famous story, Alice in Wonderland, in Disney's films it was called Alice in Cartoon Land. One of the most famous cartoon characters (be) Mickey Mouse. He appeared in 1928, first in a black-and-white film (with) sound, then very soon after that in a talking film and then in colour.
Today, hundreds of years (late), people of all ages can't help (enjoy) cartoons. They will (probable) be popular for many more years in the future.
Mr Jackson and Betty are discussing great writers. Betty explains that in her Internet group, each person reads a favourite book and then writes a(n) (评论) of it. Mr Jackson (接受) that Confucius and Shakespeare are great because their works are still read by people today, but he thinks Confucius was more a teacher and thinker than a writer. He says that Confucius was a very (睿智的) man. Mr Jackson thinks that we are still (影响) by Confucius's ideas and that Shakespeare's plays still make (意义) to people today.

Dear Dad,
I'm writing this email because I want to ask you to stop smoking, and it's too difficult to talk about it . I've looked up a lot of information about smoking and I've out about its dangers.
You already know that smoking is bad for you. It causes many . Do you know that a group of increasing people smoking every year in Britain? I don't want you to be one of .
, not many people like the smell of smoke in their house or on their clothes, and Mum doesn't like it . A recent research said that more and more people don't smoke are falling ill. It's caused by hand smoking, which could make Mum and me ill too.
I know that it is very difficult to stop smoking, but you must try. Please see the doctor and ask him help. We will do anything we can to help you. Please don't smoke!
Your loving daughter,
Kate
