Long long ago, there was a bear living in a deep forest. A large bull （公牛）and many cattle lived on a farm. The bull was known as the bull for miles around. No other animals could beat him.
Then, one morning, the bear made a decision to the bull to see who the winner was. The bear stood in front of the bull. The bull asked, 'What do you want to do, bear? '
"I want to fight with you," said the bear angrily. "You can't possibly win. I have sharp horns （角）can hurt you badly." The bull answered.
"My claws （爪子）are also so sharp and quick that I can hurt you very badly," the bear shouted. "I have beaten many stronger animals than you in the forest. I am the of the forest! ",
The bull said, "I don't want to fight with you. This is a farm, not the forest. I just fight those who attack （攻击）the cattle. And if something happens to me, who would protect the cattle then? If you the fight, what about your family, who would protect them? Who is the is not important at all."
"I never thought of that, I'm sorry," said the bear.
"Go back into the forest, bear. Live in peace," said the bull he turned to walk away.

Scoring a goal is always worth celebrating. The Chinese striker （前锋）Wu Lei, scored his first goal on March 2nd in La Liga （西甲）. It touched off （引发）wild celebrations among Chinese fans - some of them even cried with joy.
Wu, now a member of the Spanish club Espanyol, is the first Chinese player to score in the top European league. "I'm so excited! Several months ago, I was scoring in the Chinese Super League, but now I've scored in La Liga. It's like a dream for me," Wu said after scoring.
Wu is a rookie （新手）in the club, as he joined it at the end of January. But in just his fifth appearance on the field, he scored his first goal. Espanyol coach Rubi said Wu is like "a floating feather （飘着的羽毛）with great flexibility （灵活性）and speed.
Wu was quite strict with himself during training. He got slightly hurt when he first joined the team, but still wanted to start training right away. He also told his coach that he didn't want to be treated any differently simply because he was Chinese.
To better fit into the team, Wu is learning Spanish. He practices talking with his teammates every day. He has learned so much that he no longer needs an interpreter （口译员）.His positive attitude has helped him win the trust of his teammates. Of course, Wu's first goal is just the beginning. Chinese fans are eager （渴望的）to see what he'll do in the future.
According to a common saying, "Honesty is the best policy."But in daily life, honesty can be difficult. Lying often seems like a good way to make people happy or avoid being punished for mistakes. Some people lie out of habit, without even realizing they're doing it. But despite（尽管）all this, honesty is really worth the effort.
One reason for honesty is that lies are difficult to maintain （保持）.There's always a chance that the person you lied to will find out the truth. Is the advantage from lying really worth the risk?
Lies are also difficult to hide because they are harder to remember than the truth. If you make up a story, you have to remember all about it. And the more lies you tell, the more stories you have to remember. But if you tell the truth, you will never have trouble remembering.
Another reason to avoid lying is that lying can harm others. People who believe your lies might make bad decisions because of them. If your friends find out you lied to them, they will question whether they can trust you.
Oppositely, if you always tell the truth, you will develop the fame for honesty. This will help you in every area of your life. Business deals, friendships, family and other relationships all depend on trust.
Honesty, however, doesn't mean that you have to say everything you think. Sometimes it's best to remain silent if your words might hurt someone else. Honesty means that when you speak, you tell the truth without holding any information back. When you do that, you will feel more relaxed and enjoy stronger relationships.
A. However, there are some worries about the use of facial recognition.
B. Facial recognition technology has several advantages.
C. Such technology is really quite safe.
D. It can quickly confirm a person's identity.
E. And we know that no two faces are exactly the same.
Humans have little difficulty recognizing （识别）each other. We may not recall a name, but we can usually remember if we've seen a face. Even twins look a little different. Each human face is truly special. So it is a good way to confirm （确认）a person's identity （身份） by seeing his face. And now we've invented machines that are able to recognize faces at a fast speed.
Governments, train stations and police services are using facial recognition （人脸识另U） technology. So a wanted criminal can quickly be picked out of millions of people. It only needs a database （数据库）with images （影像）.
Common people, too, are using facial recognition to unlock their phones, their computers. According to Apple, for example, there is only one chance in a million that someone else's face could unlock your iPhone. So you don't need to worry about its safety.
It can be done in a minute, and we don't need to memorize passwords any more. Whafs more, it's not necessary to touch the machine, especially during the COVID-19 outbreak. The device usually costs little, so it is can be used widely.
The worries are mainly about people's privacy （隐私）.Nowadays we can see more and more cameras in public-and-private places. This means people can be watched and recognized wherever they go and whatever they do.
Does anyone in your life helps you achieve your goals? Does anyone encourage you, give you advice and ask you helpful questions? A person like this is a mentor （导顶帀）, and many people find out such mentors really helpful in their life.

companies pair new managers with more experienced ones. The more experienced manager can use his or her experience to help the new one. This not only helps the new manager but also is good for the company. That's because when managers do their job well, everyone wins.

Xu Xiake was known in China as a great explorer (探险家)，geographer and travel writer. Born in 1587, he loved reading books about geography and nature and from an early age wished to see the natural wonders of the country. Xu started to travel at the age of 22 with the encouragement of his mother. As well as exploring famous mountains and rivers, he went to places that had never been visited before. His first journeys lasted only a few months so that he could often return home. But by 1639, about two years before his death, Xu had been travelling for years at a time, covering almost half of modern China. Unlike most travelers these days, Xu travelled the hard way— n foot. He showed great courage during his journeys. He often went without food for days and suffered (遭受) bad weather, illness, dangerous animals and even robbers.
Xu wrote about his discoveries in his travel diaries, which are the earliest records of landscapes (风景)in Southern China. Xu's own experiences enabled him to correct several mistakes in earlier books. One of his most important discoveries was that the
Jinsha River was the true source of the Yangze River. At more than 600,000 words, Xu's diaries are regarded as one of the greatest works in both scientific and literary fields. Translated into modern Chinese, it is amazing to hear the voice of Xu Xiake speaking to us across the centuries about his adventures.
