—Yes. Next Friday
It was a sunny afternoon. Sam and his sister Lily were helping Mom 1the room
"Hey, Sam, " said Mom. "Would you please put these paper—toweltubes(纸巾内管)in the bin?" Sam looked at the tubes and something came to him. He asked"Could I use them to make a2?""Great idea!"said Mom. "Do we have any other good recycling materials(可回收材料)?" asked Sam. "Come on. Let's go and see what else we can find in3house, " said Mom.
Then, they walked around and kept4 "This box would be good, " Sam pointed out. "5it's full of books. ""I was going to put those books on the shelves(书架). Can you give me a6 ? Then you can have the box, "said Mom. "Sure, no problem!"said Sam7 "Now I only need several more things. "Sam happily collected all his materials. He sat on the floor, cutting and gluing all afternoon.
"I like your robot, "said Lily. "Thanks. But his head is broken, and I can't 8it, "said Sam. "Hmm, " said Lily. She came up with an idea. She ran away and ran right back with an old hat"Remember this hat?" asked Lily. "I wore it when I was a baby. Now it's too9for me. " "Thanks, it's perfect!" said Sam. "What do you think, Mr. Robot?"
"I love it, "said Mr. Robot, in a funny voice. "You are really good10making things out ofre cycling materials. "
A man gets out of his car. He rushes into a doctor's office "DOCTOR! Please help me! I think I must be seriously ill. "
"Tell me what's wrong, "the doctor says beside his desk
"Everywhere I touch on my body, it hurts!" the man answers. "Come on and sit on the chair. Please show me. "
So the man touches his left foot and cries out of pain. Then he touches his right knee and cries, "Ouch. "Then he touches his back and jumps out of the chair.
As he is about to continue, the doctor says, "That's enough. Let me see. " After a while, the doctor says, "Oh, I know. Feel your finger. "
Orangutans
Orangutans are nature lovers. They like hanging out in the tree. They spend 95% of their time up there in the tree. They sleep and eat in their nests(巢). The nests are big enough for even a 10-year-old kid to play in.
Pigs
Pigs may not look so cute when they find mud(泥) holes. They like playing in the mud —it is like their natural playground. And when it is hot, they stay in the mud to cool themselves. They don't care how dirty they get.
Sea turtles
Sea turtle eggs are like ping—pongballs. After baby turtles break out of the eggs they get themselves out of the sand and hurry to leave the beach for the sea. They swim for 24 hours in the sea to stay away from danger.
Free time is a good chance for teenagers to have fun. What about free time with parents around? Some teenagers want free play without parents' supervision(监管) while parents and experts(专家) may think differently
Lin Tao, a middle school student, thinks teenagers should be free to play. "Last time I played with my parents around, I was nervous and just couldn't enjoy myself to the fullest, " Lin says. "And my friend Chen Xiaoxin has similar experiences. Once, he went out to play with his classmates. Everyone felt uncomfortable with his mother's supervision. "
Wang Min, a mother of a 14-year-old boy, thinks playtime needs supervision. She explains "People usually say I like to control my kid, but that's not true. I am just worried that he will get into trouble. Some guys may have a bad influence on him and some games like LARP(剧本杀) may mislead him. He might even get indulged in the stories and can't get back to real life. "
Mr. Ma, a doctor of social studies, says it's understandable for teenagers to wish for freedom. Free play helps them to be independent. Parents can give them more space. They don't have to supervise them all the time. However, teenagers should find out the exact details(细节) about the activities before playtime. Then they can communicate with their parents and decide together whether they can go out to play alone.
①On January 4, the China National Traditional Orchestra(中央民族乐团)played some well-known traditional music in their concert. Audiences(观众) enjoyed the beautiful sounds guzheng, the powerful tunes of suona, the tearful notes of erhu and so on. Each traditional Chinese musical instrument tells its own story
②"I've fallen in love with the sounds of traditional instruments, especially pipa, four—stringed(弦) instrument with a history of more than 2, 000 years. It can produce different sounds, such as the sounds of falling snow and raindrops. Every time I listen to a pipa tune have a strong feeling of peace, " said Yang Tian, an audience of the concert.
③However, a recent report suggests. To wake up people's love for tradition music, something creative has been done.
④In some traditional music concerts, VR(虚拟现实) technology is used to bring the star sky or the beautiful sandy view of Dunhuang to the music hall. It makes the experience like watching a 3D movie.
⑤Li Xiaobing, a music teacher from Beijing, mixes traditional folk(民间)singing, opera and Chinese instruments through technology. People are surprised at his works and they lo them!
⑥Some musicians try to add something new to traditional music. They bring modern music like pop and rap into traditional music. When the east meets the west, the new form of mus wins the hearts of both the old and the young
⑦Traditional music shows the beauty of our culture, and with some creativity, great thin happen.
The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics was a great success. Chinahas kept the promise to hold a green Olympics. Many green actions made itpossible, like providing environmentally friendly smart beds, using new energy(能源)cars supportingsporting places with 100% clean energy and reusing rain and snow water
Take making ice as an example. China didn't use R507a commonmaterial to make ice because it isn't friendly enough to the environment. Through18 months' hard work, China independently developed the CO2 directcooling technology.
A net of tubes runs under the ice. High-pressure liquid(液态)CO2 goesthrough them to create heat(热) exchange. The CO2evaporates(蒸发) under the ice surface. The evaporationtakes in heat and turns water on the surface into ice. And the CO goes intoanother circle. This technology helps to make ice better and faster. And aboveall, it is much greener because there's no new CO2 produced. Amongall the 15 ice sporting places in the Winter Olympics, 7 used the CO2direct cooling technology to make ice. As a result, much less pollution wascaused.
Beijing did so much more to save energy. Beijing built thenew sporting places with green materials. As for the old ones, Beijing used newglass walls to take the place of traditional walls
tolet more natural light in. 70% of the waste heat was also reused to keep warmand dry. And a large number of new energy cars were used at the Beijing 2022Winter Olympics
The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics is the first to trulyachieve carbon neutrality(碳中和), and it has set new standards in green technologies. Somenewspapers say China has set an example for the world in environmentalprotection and green development.

"Do you want to grow your own vegetables?" Mom asked "Yes!" My eyes got wide Mom smiled at my excitement. She gave me a book on gardening, and I carefully planted some seeds(种子) in the back yard.
After supper, I rushed to see how much they might grow. Nothing! My mouth dropped "Someone stole my seeds!" Mom laughed from ear to ear. She said "Johnny, go and check the book." I hung my head down. I read the book and I knew something needed to be done
Early the next morning, I ran to the back yard. Everything looked the same but I wasn't that disappointed(失望). As the book said, I lightly watered my seeds and stuck my finger in the soil(泥土) to make sure it wasn't too dry. That evening, I couldn't help going to check my garden again. No sign of anything green. Just dirt.
The next morning I raced to the garden again No changes. "Why is it taking so long for the seeds to grow?" I asked. "Grow up!" I shouted. "Please, just grow, "I almost cried. Mom was too busy with housework to help. "Read the book, and wait patiently" So I read again. I removed(除去) the grass from the soil and watered the seeds.
Then one morning, I walked out to my garden. I wasn't expecting to see anything yet. To my surprise, a little bit of green came into my eyes. I got down on my knees for a closer look "They grew!" I shouted. I could see little green leaves growing everywhere! I was so excited "They finally grew!" The book is right. It took several days for the seeds to be in the soil before popping up.
