Just a few days after his 18th birthday, Beijing 2022 gold medal winner Su Yiming received a surprise gift—a letter from Xi Jinping, President of the People's Republic of China.

In the letter, Xi expressed his congratulations to Su and other sportsmen in ice and snow sports for their great achievements at the Beijing Winter Olympics, hoping what they had achieved would encourage young Chinese to aim （立目标）high.

When Su first stepped onto a snowboard at the age of four, a future as a world-class sportsman seemed to be "a dream too big" for him. Little did he know that he would not only compete for his country but also take home gold. With the great excitement of winning an Olympic gold medal still fresh in his mind, Su wrote a letter to the president, telling him how lucky he felt to have made his dream come true.

Su still remembers what Xi wrote in the reply, "The new era is the time for young people to realize their dreams. "

"I have always kept those words in my mind, " Su said.

"When I made up my mind to be a professional （职业的） snowboarder. I know there is a big gap between my performance （表现）and that of the top sportsmen in the world. But I have been working hard to realize my dream. Now my story shows the fact that hard will pay off. "Su said.

Su believes the sky is the limit. "Find the thing you love, believe in yourself and do your very best. Finally, your dream will come true."

Now Su has his strong wish to win all the competitions in his sporting field.

Many people may wonder what the three Chinese astronauts' life was like when working in space. In fact, they did many of the things as we do on Earth.

They brush their teeth, wash their hair and go to the bathroom. However, because of the microgravity(失重) environment, they take care of themselves in different ways. They wash their hair by using the no-rinse shampoo to get it clean because there are no real showers in the spaceship.

Astronauts eat three meals a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner. But how much they eat depends on the astronauts. A small woman astronaut often needs only about 1,900 calories （卡路里） a day, while a large man requires about 3,200 calories. So there are many kinds of foods ready, such as fruits, nuts, chicken, beef and seafood. They can also drink coffee, tea and orange juice.

Astronauts can have much fun, too. They look out of the window, enjoying the wonderful sunsets and sunrises which happen every 45 minutes. Very often, they play with their food or even jokes on their workmates. Believe it or not, astronauts can even spend weekends, when they can watch movies, play music, read books and talk to their families.

After a long day at work,  ▲ . Just like on Earth, an astronaut goes to bed at a certain time, then wakes up and prepares for work again. But there are a few differences. Astronauts have to sleep in sleeping bags in special cabins(柜子). Generally, astronauts are planned to have eight hours of sleep. Like on Earth, they may wake up in the middle of their sleep to use the toilet. And astronauts also have dreams.

As for Wang 'aping, she had another experience — preparing for lessons for the Chinese students far down on Earth.

①Have you ever shown your photos on your favorite social media （媒体）? Or have you expressed your feelings and emotions on your online page? If yes, do you know what you have posted on the social medias can cause problems you could not expect?

②Cathy, who is going to be fifteen, posted online an invitation to her birthday party with her address in it. And guess what! 500 people came to the party, and some even broke the windows and plants, making a total mess of the house. The girl's birthday party turned into a nightmare （噩梦）.

③Many teenagers （青少年）think they know everything about social media, and that such a thing could never happen to them. Studies show that each year more than three million young people in the world get into trouble because of their online activities.

④So do remember these if you really want to share something online.

⑤Share with care! Not everyone will like what you write online. Think before you post anything. You never know who sees your texts, pictures or videos. Before clicking "post", you should ask yourself, "How will I feel if my family or teachers see this?" and "How might this post be bad for me in five or ten years from now?"

⑥Be polite when you write! Imagine someone is unfriendly in real life. The same is true of online communication. No one likes it when you "shout" in your messages. If you feel angry or frustrated while you're writing a message, wait a bit. Read it again later and then send it.

⑦Protect and respect! Never share your passwords with anyone. It's not wise to post your home or email address online. Don't say bad things about people. If you get messages like that or see them online, talk to your parents or your teachers.

⑧ I'd say none of these things promises 100% online safety, but each will help you to be safer.

London Zoo is one of the top attractions in Britain and it is the world's (最古老的) scientific zoo. It was built over 180 years ago. Now it is run by the Zoological Society of London.

The zoo can be found in the heart of London. (虽然) it lies in the middle of the city, the zoo still has a large (数目) of animals to see, including lions, giraffes, tigers, (猴子) and so on. In fact, there are 750 different groups, making it one of the largest collections of animals in the UK.

The zoo is (分成) into many different areas, such as Lions and Tigers, where you can get very close to a family of beautiful but endangered big cats from Asia. These places are great fun to explore and help make it very (受欢迎的) with tourists from different parts of the world.

Shopping can also be done in the zoo. There are several places where you can buy food and drink. Gifts (两者) about the zoo and the city can be bought in many shops.

The best way to (到达) the zoo is to take the underground. As it is in the (北面) end of Regent's Park, it only takes ten minutes to walk (穿过) the park from Regent's Park Underground Station.

Some people say it is not easy for a middle-aged person to learn a foreign language. But is it (real) true?

Several years ago, I worked for English newspaper which was doing such a research. They asked me to learn a new language for one month. Then I had to go to the country and do some "tests" (see) if I could "survive (挺过来)" in different situations.

I chose Spanish(西班牙语) and did a one-month course at a language school and (find) that some Spanish words are very similar to English ones. example, hola isn't very different from "hello". Of course, there are other things which are more difficult. In Spanish you have to change the verbs (动词) for each person. But my (big) problem of all was the pronunciation. I found was very difficult to pronounce some letters in Spanish, especially r and j. So I had to download (sentence) onto my phone and I listened and practised them again and again.

A month later I went to Spain. A Spanish teacher (call) Paula came and began the test. "Will I survive?" I wasn't sure enough but I wished I would!

Tony: Hello, everyone. I am Tony, the group leader. These are my group members, Betty, Darning and Ogling. As we know, Jinhua is a beautiful with a long history. But you may not know the two longest corridor bridges (廊桥) in China are here. They are Xijin Bridge and Shuxi Bridge. So we chose these two bridges as our project target(项目任务). Here is our presentation.

Betty: I'll introduce the process. First we made a plan about the time we would need and how to do the project. It took us three weekends to do online searching, visit the bridges, interview the local people and make the leaflet.

Darning: After collecting all the information and doing the necessary study, we have made them into a leaflet as our product. Let's take a look.

The two bridges are made of wood. They are called sister bridges because they look really similar. Xijin Bridge, the longest bridge, is in Yongkang and the second longest is in Wuyi called Shuxi Bridge.

Lingling: What we'd like to share with you most is our gains and feelings. We are all amazed by the wisdom(智慧) of the ancient bridge builders and feel so proud of our hometown.

Tony: Now, what do you think of our project? Your comments and suggestions are always welcome. Thank you.
