We all know that the moon goes around the earth. But do you know you can always only see one side of the moon while the other side always turns away from us? The side that we can see from the earth is called the near side, while the other side is called the far side. Some people call it the dark side, but that's not correct, as the sun is shining on it brightly on the other side. The gravity(重力) on the moon is only one sixth of that on the earth. When a person is on the moon, he will weigh one sixth of his weight on the earth. So the moon is the place to go if you want to feel like you're weightless.
Astronauts have been on the moon several times since 1969 and they left a lot of rubbish behind. Scientists estimate that there are about 181, 437 kilograms of man-made materials lying around the moon.
As the nearest neighbor of the earth, the moon has a lot of effects on us. The scientists have found that around a full moon, people may take longer to fall asleep and sleep less.
Therefore, next time if you can't get to sleep, it could be the full moon.
Zhong Nanshan is a famous and beloved doctor in China. He played a huge role in managing the SARS (非典)outbreak in 2003. After that, he was called the "SARS Hero" and became a household (家喻户晓的) name across the country.
Both of Zhong Nanshan's parents were famous doctors in China. He once said, "My father is the person who has influenced me the most." When Zhong Nanshan was a little boy, his father would spend money and time on little mice to do experiments(实验) at home. Since then, the little boy became interested in science and decided to become a doctor like his father.
Zhong Nanshan was also an excellent sportsman when he was young. He won several gold medals for running in the first National Games (全运会) Now he still often plays basketball with his co-workers. That is why he is still in good shape at the age of 86.
As a doctor, Zhong Nanshan takes his job very seriously. He has been a doctor for more than 50 years. He is one of the best in his area. Whenever he is in need, he will answer the call at once. In 2020, he took the train to Wuhan without thinking twice to fight the COVID-19. He once again helped Chinese regain confidence to defeat(战胜)this great difficulty.
I still remember the days I spent in the bookstores. When I was a child, bookstores are the only source(来源) of all kinds of books. Bookstores have been a symbol of my happy childhood. But now many bookstores have closed and that trend(趋势)is continuing today. Many owners are taking some measures to attract people and keep their bookstores. However, as the recent survey shows, these measures seem to be of little help. There are three main reasons for this trend. First, increasingly more people have given up reading habits over the past ten years. The second reason is the development of the internet. Third, among the fewer readers who continue reading paper books, many of them buy books online.
A city without bookstores is not culturally rich. So it would be a pity if physical bookstores were to disappear completely. We couldn't stop bookstores from disappearing. They were an important part of the city's history.

A. They always brought me great joy and opened my eyes. B. But we should remember the role that bookstores have played. C.

Many people who continue reading have changed from reading paper books to e-books. F. They were not important for our culture. |
Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.
ls it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful(警觉的) than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents.
Scientists at Harvard University found that more than 50 percent of the shy people had brothers and sisters. It might be because they got less attention from their parents.
When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. It might be because Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure (失败). In Japan, when people do not succeed, they blame (责备) themselves, while Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, friends, or bad luck.
For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class and find a job. You could lose things and the opportunities you would enjoy.
But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversations. Preparing things to talk about before you're in a social situation is also a good way to reduce shyness.

He was a poet known for the nostalgia(思乡之情)he describes in his poems. Now, it's time for us to express our nostalgia for this great writer.
On December 14, 2017, the famous Chinese poet Yu Guangzhong passed away in Taiwan, the Xinhua. News Agency reported.
Born in 1928 in Nanjing, Jiangsu, Yu moved to Taiwan in 1950. He lived and worked there until his death.
Nostalgia is Yu's masterpiece in which he expresses his homesickness for Chinese mainland when he was in Taiwan. The poem remains highly popular among Chinese speakers worldwide. Even those who know little about literature are familiar with lines from the poem. The poem is included in Chinese high school textbooks. Besides his achievements in poetry, Yu was also a successful essay(散文)writer, critic(评论家) and translator.
He once translated English poet Siegfried Sassoon's poem In Me, Past, Present Future Meet into Chinese. It is regarded as an accurate and powerful translation, in which the most famous line is"心有猛虎，细嗅蔷薇" for" In me the tiger sniffs the rose".
Yu spent his whole life writing. "I kept writing till today because of my passion for the Chinese language, "he once said in an interview with People's Daily.
