Zheng He was a famous Chinese explorer. In 1405, he 1 from China on the first of several great voyages(航行). His task was to develop relations and2 trade routes with foreign countries.3 trading, the voyages also encouraged the exchange of cultures and technologies, which helped the 4 of those countries and regions. Today, people still remember him 5 a pioneer in opening up cultural contacts between different peoples around the world.
In order to live a better life, more and more farmers go to cities to find a job. Their children move to cities with them. These children grow up in the city but experience a(n) 1 city life. Their school is outside town. The children seem 2, but behind the smiling faces, are lives of hardship.
Xiao Hang, from Sichuan said, "My parents 3 at two in the morning and work until one in the afternoon every day to cook and 4 breakfast. I help them collect the plates on weekend 5, and by 11 AM I go home and do my homework. And then I help my sister cook lunch."
Many children here have to move around a lot 6 their parents change jobs and cities. Their hometown is far away from them and only in their 7. Xiao Qi, from Kunming said, "The weather is very nice in my hometown. It's neither too cold nor too hot. Flowers are always blooming, and it is like 8 all the year round."
Compared with the city children, these children grow up having a much harder childhood. They usually feel lonely and find it 9 to make friends because they move through cities too often. What they need is not only money. They also need more teaching projects to help them 10 to better communicate with others so that they will feel more confident.
Most people don't take first aid(急救)training because they are busy. Some even think only doctors need to learn first aid. But in fact, it is useful. Here are the good sides of learning first aid.
First aid helps save lives. Giving someone first aid can help him or her get better fast. First aid training teaches how to keep calm in emergencies (紧急状况下).
Help someone feel better. Not every accident or injury(受伤) needs a visit to the hospital. But it doesn't mean you should not try to help someone injured, even though the injury isn't very serious. You can use first aid to help anyone in need, for example, a person who doesn't feel well because of a fever.
Keep a situation from getting worse. Sometimes, if a person doesn't get first aid in time, his or her situation will get worse soon. If you give him or her simple care, you will help him or her feel better and keep things from getting worse.
Columbus was an Italian. He believed the world was round, though few people knew or believed it at that time. He thought if he always went west, he would at last get to India. His friend, Isabella, the queen of Spain, gave him support which made it possible for him to start his journey.
On August 3, 1492, Columbus started from Spain with three small ships. He and his men stepped into what was then an unknown sea. Many thought that they would never come back. On and on they went with their ships, not knowing where they were going!
For a long time there was nothing but wide waters all around them. Day after day, and night after night passed by. The men who were with him became scared, and tried to force him to return. But Columbus was brave and would not turn back. At last, a land appeared.
When the people of the island saw Columbus's ships, they were very surprised. They had never heard of Europe or the people who lived there. Columbus and his men filled their ships with fruits, vegetables, plants and animals. He even took some island people with him as he returned to Spain.
When the other countries of Europe heard of the great discovery of a new world, they wanted to share in its riches. So many things like bananas, sugar and cotton were brought into Europe from there. And these things changed Europe a lot.
The potato plant which was taken back to Europe also changed Europe. As it grew easily in Europe, it meant more food for the people there and so the population of Europe increase.
Lu Xun is one of the greatest Chinese writers of the 20th century. Besides his famous stories, he also wrote many influential articles about the living conditions of Chinese people.
Born in 1881 to a wealthy family, Lu Xun had a happy childhood. In 1893, however, his grandfather, a senior government official, was put into prison for taking money. At the same time, his father became seriously ill. From that time on, his family were no longer accepted by their relatives and friends. These early experiences greatly influenced his writing.
By the time Lu Xun arrived in Nanjing to study at university in 1899, he already believed that Chinese society had to change and become modern. In 1902 he went to study in Japan. There, he began writing articles for several Chinese student magazines. He showed a gift for writing and translating and he even wrote several books, although none was popular. He returned to China in 1909 because he was in need of money.
After working for several years as a teacher in Beijing, Lu Xun again returned to writing. In 1918, he wrote his famous short story Diary of a Madman. It was the first Chinese novel published using the everyday language that people spoke, which helped make it a great success. This, together with his novel The True Story of Ah Q (1921), made Lu Xun a leading Chinese writer.
Although successful, Lu Xun still worried greatly about China's future. In 1926, he moved to Shanghai and gave up writing stories in order to devote himself to what he called "pen warfare". He now only wrote articles which called on the people to fight against the government. For this, the government stopped him from publishing any more books. He was forced to write his articles using false names.
Since his death in 1936, Lu Xun's importance and influence have grown. Today, many of his writings are included in school textbooks and his works are read by millions around the world.

Many, Chinese, ways, their, people, there, express, are, in, which, respect. When an older person enters a room, everyone stands up. People are introduced from the oldest to the youngest. When we present a book to an older person, two hands are used. Young people always offer their seats to older people on a crowded subway or bus.
In western countries, however, older people seldom think they are old. They are called "seniors" instead of "old people". They'd rather do everything themselves. Even after retirement, they take on hobbies, part-time jobs and new activities to keep their bodies working well. Westerners respect their older people, too. Seniors usually take trains and buses for free. They are given discounts （折扣） in stores and restaurants.
But western seniors don't often live with their children, they live B . For holidays, the family usually get together at the grandparents' homes. A great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for children to show their respect.
