Do you know the history of the English dictionary? The first English dictionary came out in 1604. Thedictionary was nothing but a list of about 3,000 difficult words together with a one-word definition(解释).The writer, Robert Cawdrey, didn't put everyday words in his dictionary. He said no one would ever have to look up aword in a dictionary if he already knew the meaning of the word. Since then many kinds of dictionaries came out. But they were all like Robert's.
A man named Dr. Samuel Johnson changed all this. Dr. Johnson wrote the first modern dictionary. And it came out in 1755. He put all important words in his dictionary, both easy and hard, and he told clearly what the words meant. He also gave good sentences to show how each word was used in spoken English and in written English. From then on, dictionaries were getting better and better.
The dictionaries we use today are nearly all like Dr. Samuel Johnson's.
Dreams are powerful. They can drive you to work harder and become better. It's important for a country to have a dream and work for a better future as well.
President Xi Jinping said that realizing the great rejuvenation (复兴) of the Chinese nation by building a rich and successful country is China's greatest dream in modern history, according to Xinhua News Agency. That dream is known as the "Chinese Dream".
Many people have already contributed to (对…做贡献) the Chinese Dream while realizing their own dreams.
Here are some of their stories.
Sun Yang, a swimmer, has won 12 gold medals in world-class competitions, including three Olympic ones. He is also the only man to have won gold in the 200m, 400m, 800m and 1,500m freestyle at the world championships.
▲ He took part in student swimming competitions. For many younger swimmers, competing with Sun can be a big inspiration. He also went to Jilin and Jiangxi to give swimming lessons to primary school students. "I'm willing to see more and more young people to join us to swim and build a strong body." Sun told CCTV.
Hu Weiwei set up the company Mobike, China's first smart bike-sharing company. Hu has always loved riding bicycles. In 2014, she pointed out that she could connect mobile phone technology with bike-sharing to create a new trend (潮流). "If I have a dream, it's like a seed planted in my heart. And it grows," Hu said.
Her dream was to create a great company that could "change people's lifestyles and shape the future of cities." And that is what Mobike is doing.Hu achieved personal success while helping society at the same time. In 2017, She was named as a good example for China's young people.
The Chinese Dream is not only for the government. It's shared by all Chinese people as well. By calling for a common dream, Xi is asking everyone to link their success with the future of the country.
More and more excellent young people are joining us in making their efforts to make their own Chinese Dream come true. Will you be the next one?
Alisha is a 12-year -old girl and she feels upset these days. She doesn't want to go to school or talk with anyone else. That's probably because she was suffering the school bully (校园欺凌). Just like Alisha, many young Chinese students are having the same problems. They may feel lonely and worried. What's worse, they may even want to kill themselves to get away from the bad situation.
School bully often happens between students aged from 8 to 18 in their daily life. And it has become a serious social problem all over the country. School bullies may come in many different reasons: they may happen just because someone is searching for "fresh and new" feelings; or THEY may just come out of no reasons; or big guys just want to do it.
After a large number of reports and a carful research on the further reasons of school bully, many experts say that being short of (缺乏) parents' love and guidance may be the main cause for this social problem.
How can we deal with school bully? Many other developed countries, including the US and the UK, have made very strict laws to stop school bully. After reported by the local TVs and radios, three Chinese girls, studying in the US, who bullied one of their classmates very seriously, have paid an enormous(巨大的) price for their behavior.
Piao Wenyao fell in love with the game of go (围棋)and started to learn it at the age of 5. At that time, he knew he would be a go player for life. Now, after so many years, he has become the youngest go world winner.
On February 23, Piao won the 15th LG World Cup Final in Seoul and 1. 46 million yuan. It is Piao's first international prize. He is only 22 years old.
Ten years ago, Piao came to Beijing to learn go. A terrible accident happened not long after. Piao's father was killed in an underpass (地下通道). It was a big blow (打击) to the family. But Piao's mother knew Piao's father wanted Piao to succeed. So Piao's mother began to work harder for his education.
Luckily, Piao began to shine in 2005. People thought he was a very talented player. Then he got more and more attention around the world. In 2008, Piao entered the final of an important international match. He started very well, but Piao ended up losing the match. Piao was very sad.
But even during these dark times, Piao never thought of giving up. What gives him such strong determination (决心)?
"The game of go is so special that it makes me give my whole heart. Try best and finally win – it is the best thing in the world," he said.

It's very important for everyone to sleep. We spend about one— third of our lives sleeping. So we should pay more attention to the quality of sleeping. However, a lot of people have trouble in sleeping. Some people even take sleeping pills to help them sleep better. In fact, taking sleeping pills is very dangerous. That' s because sleeping pills are habit-forming (上瘾 的). If you take them for several weeks, you will find it hard for you to stop taking them. Then, what should you do if you have trouble getting a good night's sleep?
Doctors say that the best thing to do is to get out of bad habits. In other words, you can't stay up too late at night and you should get up earlier in the morning. However, you may still have trouble sleeping if you have problems or something else on your mind. Then it's time for you to do some exercise to relax your tense muscles (紧绷的肌肉). If relaxing your body can't help you, try to write down your worries on your mind. If you like listening to music, you can choose some music that is quiet and gentle. Be sure not to choose some music which is too loud, or you may get so excited that you can't fall asleep.
Remember, choosing proper ways can help you sleep better.

Author Elizabeth Becker says we have a responsibility(任)to respect the places we visit. Some basic rules still hold, such as not traveling at busy times and taking fewer trips but making them longer. The best and easiest to be a responsible traveler is to use common sense and go local.
Respect traditions. Read about the culture and traditions of the places you visit. Understand the local culture and customs to avoidany mistakes. For example, dress properly when you visit temples (寺庙) and
don't eat or talkin religious(宗教的) sites. If you visit a beach, leave seashells where you find them and try not to catch fish while swimming.
Learn the Language. expects you to become fluent (流利), but try to learn some basic phrases such as "please" and "thank you". You'll be amazed at how much nicer and more helpful people will be if they know you're making an effort to get used to their culture.
Spend local. Stay away from international hotels and restaurants run by foreigners. using local guides, buying local products and staying in family run hotels, you're not only giving back to the community, but you also get a better understanding of the country you stay in and the people who there.
Bargain( 讲价 ) fairly. Always be when you try to get a lower price. Sometimes goods at local market can seem expensive. Nobody likes to be cheated and it may be fun to bargain, but remember that for the local people bargaining may not be a game. So try not be too rude (粗鲁的 ) when bargaining.
Don't litter. In some countries, getting rid of waste is a big problem, so don't throw rubbish on the ground. Doing so is harmful to the environment and unpleasant for others. Hold on to your rubbish you find a bin(垃圾箱)
