Beijing 2022Winter Olympics souvenirs(纪念品) have drawn much attention from collectors around the world, especially the beautiful pins(胸针). They have won high praise for the excellent patterns.

The Beijing Winter Olympics pins connect traditional Chinese culture with modern beauty. It's thought that the style of the countdown souvenir pin collection is really special and romantic. As for the 200-day countdown pin, the pattern features sakura(樱花) on the front and a snowflake on the back, showing how the Beijing 2022Winter Olympics follows the Tokyo 2020Summer Olympics.

  If collectors get all pins in the countdown series, they can piece them together in the shape of a big "0", which means the countdown is over and that the Winter Olympics is going to kick off.

Some limited pins about ancient Chinese stories quickly sold out. The series has put Chinese fairy tales into the pattern, vividly showing the images of Pangu separating the sky from the earth, Jingwei filling up the sea, Chang'e fying to the moon, etc. Only 2,022 sets of the series were produced.

Other pin include traditional games, for example, the ancient Chinese ball game, cuju. Ice play, an old sport in North China, is also shown on a single pin. The ancient style of the pattern can be found in ancient paintings of the Ming and Qing dynasties.

As the host of the 2022 Winter Olympic Games, Beijing has told its own stories to the world through these colourful pins, created to welcome athletes and audience around the world.

Many of us don't talk to strangers we meet on the street. Either we're too busy to notice other people, or we're too shy to start a conversation. However, in the United States, saying "hello" is the way people greet one another.

"Hello" has the ability to start a conversation. And when the conversation is with someone people don't know, that's really nerve-wrecking. People are very worried about their safety. For example, if a strange man says "hello" to a woman walking down the street, the woman may respond(回应)very carefully. Her worries are about he physical and emotional comfort. It's because these are people we don't know, and we don't know whether or not we can trust them. So it makes sense that most people with social worries are stressed around strangers.

"Hello" is just a word people use to greet one another. When you say "hello" to a stranger, it's a way to fill the silence instead of letting the situation be difficult. By offering up the simplest greeting, you could make someone's day. You wouldn't even know how good it is to make others feel like they are important. So just say "hello" to them. You never go wrong with a simple greeting.

So how do you get the courage to say hello? You can start by saying "hello" to your reflection in a mirror or saying "hello" to greet your friends first. You can also say "hello" to strangers online. And finally, you become used to saying "hello". Remember "hello" is a word full of power, and that it is important to show others they are deserving(值得)this very simple greeting.

①Chemistry is everywhere in our daily life. Sometimes it's easy to see. At other times, it can be very hard to see the everyday chemistry at work, but nearly everything you touch has some chemicals(化学物质) in it.

②Chemistry helps to make products for use. Something as simple as toothpaste has at least three chemicals that keep your teeth clean. Other things in your daily life are created by chemistry, such as hair products and soap. Without chemistry, we would never have known that we need soap to get the oil out of clothes.

③Chemistry also helps us understand the world around us. Thanks to chemistry, we know bleach (漂白剂)can't be mixed with vinegar(醋), because the mixture can produce harmful gas.

④Chemistry plays a big role in food preparation. Cooking food causes it to go through a chemical change. That is why cooked food often tastes different from uncooked food. Too much or too little of any chemical material makes a difference to the result of baking(烘焙). For example, the cake can be too soft or too hard.

⑤Chemistry isn't something that just lives in a laboratory, it's something that you meet hundreds of times in life. Knowing how chemistry works will give you a greater understanding of the life.

Amy walked toward Miss Brown's backyard, where she was planting roses. Last week, Amy and her parents just moved into the house next door.

The old woman looked up, "Why the long face, Amy?"

"There aren't any kids around to play with," said Amy. "I have nothing to do."

Miss Brown smiled, "You sound just like a girl who used to live here."

"Really? Who?"

"Her name is Rachel," said Miss Brown. "Too bad you two young girls couldn't have lived here at the same time."

"What did Rachel do when she was bored?" asked Amy.

"She planted a flower garden," answered Miss Brown.

Amy looked at Miss Brown's roses. "Could I，too?"

Miss Brown handed Amy some tools and roses. "This will get you started."

"Thanks." said Amy.

Amy worked hard the whole afternoon in her garden. When she saw the lovely roses planted, she smiled. Still it was too bad that Rachel wasn't there.

The next day, Amy watered her roses and walked to Miss Brown's backyard, where she sat reading. "What else did Rachel do?" asked Amy.

"She wrote poems in her flower garden," Miss Brown answered. "One of her poems even won a prize in a school competition."

Amy closed her eyes. "How good it would feel, but I don't know how to write poems," she said. Miss Brown smiled, "The best way is to read poems first." She handed Amy her book. "Thanks," said Amy.

Amy lay on her stomach next to her roses and read. Then she started to write. That night she had a poem that might not be a prize winner but sounded good enough. Still, it was too bad that Rachel wasn't there.

The third day, Amy watered her flowers, wrote a new poem, and then walked to Miss Brown again. "What else did Rachel do?" asked Amy, "She played in the attic (阁楼). Come with me," Miss Brown invited. "Thanks!" said Amy.

"Make yourself at home," Miss Brown said and left Amy to search alone there. Then Amy found a trophy(奖杯) with these words--First Prize in Poetry, Rachel Brown, 1937.

Slowly, a smile spread across her face. Amy ran back to Miss Brown, "I wonder if Rachel would like to write poems in my flower garden." Miss Brown smiled, "I think she would love to."

Making the most of time is important in our life. Here are some tips that might be of help to you.

Make a plan. You should make a list of what you want to finish every week. The plan includes things you want to finish. You should know what the most important ones are, and try your best to do them first.

Control your stress. No matter what kind of stress you have, try to keep cool. When you have a lot of things to do, too much stress may make you slow. Don't work all day without breaks.

Focus on one thing at a time. Don't try to do many things at a time! You will lose your focus (注意力), and it will take you longer to finish your work.

Just say "no". If you really don't have the time to help out, just say "no". You're only one person, and you can't save the world by yourself!

Stop wasting time on the phone. While talking on the phone, keep your conversations short. In this way, you'll waste much less time.

Relax. The most important thing is to take time to relax. Even if it's a 10-minute walk, get away from your work and get relaxed.
