    During the COVID-19 lockdown, thousands of boys and girls join Holly King's free online lessons. She enjoys both reading Shakespeare's plays and helping them to learn how to write. Now she is offering them some advice.

    Tip 1 Use clever names

    Well, quite often Shakespeare gives information about what a character is like through their names. For example, Romeo's name means a person being romantic and Benvolio can be nice and friendly. Now think what you can call a character who is angry all the time?

    Tip 2 Try metaphors

    Shakespeare was a fan of metaphors. A metaphor is a way of comparing one thing with something else to show ideas, feelings, places and more. In the play As You Like IT, he writes, "All the world is a stage and all the men and women only players." What do you think he means by comparing the world to a stage?

    Tip 3 Make up words

    Eyeball. Lonely. Unreal. All these words were made up by Shakespeare. If you have an idea that you can't think of a word for, be like Shakespeare and invent your own. If you want to create words that mean something and may stand the test of time, try creating words like this:breakfast+lunch = brunch. And you can start with making up words for everyday things in your home.

    Do you want to write like Shakespeare? Put your question here, or write to Holly at  hollysclass@hotmail. com.

    1. (1) Holly King in the text is a(n)     .
      A . artist B . writer C . teacher D . presenter
    2. (2) Holly King can help you     .
      A . read Shakespeare's plays B . understand the characters C . give advice D . write like Shakespeare
    3. (3) From the text, you can learn that     .
      A . you have to ask Holly for advice by writing a letter B . the name Romeo means being nice and friendly C . Shakespeare doesn't create new words in his plays D . it's useful to use metaphors to show your feelings and ideas

    Do you play a musical instrument? Could you imagine playing one made of ice?

    Tim Linhart is an American ice sculptor who has created a small orchestra of ice instruments. The performances have made people fun for more than 20 years.

    The name of Linhart's orchestra is Ice Music. The instruments are very fragile. Even the warmth of a musician's breath can cause the sound to change. So the instruments need to be returned between each piece of music. Backup instruments are kept on hand in case one breaks, but some can be "repaired" with just a bit of water.

    Most performances by Ice Music take place in a specially created concert hall in Lulea, in northern Sweden. The hall seats up to 200 people, and the temperature inside is about 23 degrees Fahrenheit. Listeners are encouraged to wear thick clothes, a hat, and gloves. Body heat and breathing can melt the instruments, so Linhart designed the hall as two ice houses connected with a stage in the middle. A hole above each side of the listeners allows heat to escape.

    Because the concert hall can't last through the warm season, it must be rebuilt every winter. Ice Music concerts have taken place in other places like Canada, Finland. Linhart has recently built an 80-foot-high hall in the Italian Alps. When winter ends, Linhart tries to freeze some of the instruments in his "freeze house" for the next year's performances. Others that are too worn are allowed to melt in the sun.

    1. (1) Tim Linhart is an ice sculptor from     .
      A . Canada B . Italy C . Northern Sweden D . the US
    2. (2) The underlined word "fragile" probably means      .
      A . strong B . heavy C . weak D . expensive
    3. (3) Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
      A . The Ice Music only plays in America. B . All the instruments can be kept well by Linhart. C . The hole above each side of the listeners helps watch the play. D . The concert hall must be rebuilt after the warm season.
    4. (4) What's the writer's purpose of writing this passage?
      A . To introduce the instruments of Ice Music. B . To tell people to protect the Ice Instruments. C . To enjoy the Performances of the Ice Music. D . To build more instruments of the Ice Music.

    Migratory birds fly to different places during different seasons. This is bird migration. Birds in migration may fly day and night for months at a time. During this long journey, when and how do they sleep?

    In 2016, some scientists studied a group of frigate birds during a ten-day flight. They recorded these birds' brain activities. Their findings made headlines-frigate birds can sleep while they are flying!

    According to this study, these birds take two types of in-flight naps. The first is called Rapid Eye Movement (REM)sleep. It is the deepest stage of sleep. For humans, REM sleep can last for several minutes. For flying birds, however, REM sleep lasts for only a few seconds. Even so, REM sleep is still very important for proper brain functioning.

    The other type of nap frigate birds take is Non-Rapid Eye Movement (NREM) sleep. During NREM sleep, the birds put only half of their brain to sleep, while the other half stays awake. The eyes of these birds are connected to the waking part of their brain. In other words, they sleep with their eyes open. They do this to stay away from dangers, and many birds do this even when they aren't migrating.

    Even though frigate birds sleep during the flight, they prefer to stay awake most of the time, spending less than 3% of their time sleeping. Once they reach land, they recover their lost sleep, spending almost half their time dozing.

    However, not all migratory birds sleep in this way. Many make occasional pit stops on their way to get a good rest before the next leg of their journey. Some stay completely awake during the whole journey. The Alpine Swift, for example, can fly for almost 200 days continuously. There is still little evidence of these birds sleeping during their long journeys.

    The sleeping habits of birds differ from species to species. This makes the study of migratory birds very exciting for scientists. In the future, we may learn more amazing things about these animals.

    1. (1) How does the writer lead into the topic?
      A . By telling a story. B . By raising a question. C . By making a comparison. D . By listing some numbers.
    2. (2) What happens to frigate birds if they get NREM sleep?
      A . They close their eyes. B . They fly much more slowly. C . Half of their brain stays awake. D . They sleep most deeply during the period.
    3. (3) According to the passage, the Alpine Swift     .
      A . never sleeps when flying in the sky B . spends 3%of its time sleeping in the sky C . mainly gets REM sleep during a long journey D . makes some pit stops on its way to get a good rest
    4. (4) What's the best title for the passage?
      A . Sleeping in the sky B . The bird migration C . Different stages of sleep D . Frigate birds, a species of large seabirds

    "Yes, sir, " I said.

Run to school, or you'll regret it!"
