Eric asked Pete，"Do you want to ride with Dave and me this Saturday？""Of course!" Pete answered. He smiled at his friends，but in fact he was worried. He didn't know how to ride，but how could he tell his friends that？It was embarrassing（令人难堪的）.
When he went home，he got out his bike. Though he couldn't ride，he had a bike. His parents bought it for his birthday months ago. When he first got it，he was excited and tried to learn. After a day or two，he gave up. His mother smiled to see him trying again. Pete walked his bike to a park and tried to ride. But after an hour，he still couldn't ride. He didn't know what he was going to do.
The next day，Eric，Dave and Pete had lunch together. "Are you ready for the big bike trip？"Dave asked.
"Oh，that …"Pete said sadly. How could he tell his best friends that he couldn't ride a bike？
"What's wrong？"Eric asked.
"It's just…"
"You can't ride a bike，" Dave said.
"No，I can't. "
"We know，" Eric said.
"Really？" Pete asked. "Why did you invite me？"
"You've got the coolest bike. We're going to help you learn，" Eric said.
Pete couldn't believe what he was hearing. "That's great. I thought you were going to make fun of me. "
Dave shook his head. "We're friends. Why would we do that？"
"I guess I'm just too proud to ask for help，"Pete said.
That Saturday，Pete finally learned to ride his bike.
The human（人类） body needs energy，which is provided by the food we eat. But how much do we need to stay healthy？
Calories（卡路里） usually decide the energy value（价值） of food. To raise the temperature of I g of water by 1℃ needs one calorie. The number of calories people need each day is different.
Calories Needed Each Day | |
Baby 750 | Office worker 2，700 |
Child aged 8 2，100 | Woman feeding baby 2，700 |
Man over 70 2，100 | Boy aged 16 3，000 |
Woman 2，600 | Farmer 3，600 |
Also，the number of calories you use at any moment usually depends on the activity you are in. For example，you need more calories for standing than for sitting，more for running than for walking and so on. The energy in food is in the form or three kinds of chemical materials—carbohydrate（碳水化合物），protein（蛋白质） and fat. Carbohydrate provides 3. 8 Cal/gm（卡路里/每克） of energy，protein 4. 0 Cal/gm，and fat 8. 8 Cal/gm. Each food has different amounts（量） of these materials，as the round pictures show.
（P＝protein C＝carbohydrate F＝fat）
People are able to hear well，being able to hear high and low sounds through ears. People's ears have three different parts.
The outer ear is the part of the ear that people can see. The size and shape of people's ears is random（随机的） and it doesn't affect their hearing. People with big ears don't hear better than people with small ears!Some people choose to put earrings at the earlobe，the bottom of their ears，but this doesn't affect hearing. Even though this is the main part of the ear you can see，all it does is to collect sound and send it down into the middle car—a part like a satellite dish（蝶形卫星接受器） collecting a signal.
The outer ear ends where the eardrum（鼓膜） starts. The area after the eardrum is called the middle ear. The sound that enters the outer ear makes the car drum shake and the middle ear is the place where the sound gets louder.
The sound travels through the inner ear into something called the cochlea（耳蜗）. This part is filled with liquid（液体） and covered in tiny（细小的） hairs. As sound waves（声波） travel from the outer to the inner ear，they make waves in the liquid of the inner ear，which in turn moves the tiny hairs in the ear that send sound or movement signals to the brain（大脑）.
When people say Chinese culture，we often think of paper cutting. Paper cutting is an art form with a long history in China. Traditional paper﹣cuts were first put on windows for decoration.
Most paper﹣cuts are made of red paper，because red means good luck in Chinese culture. Today，people use paper﹣cuts to decorate not only windows，but also doors and other furniture（家具）.
Paper﹣cuts are popular because of their expressions of good wishes and hopes. During the Spring Festival，for example，many people put up paper﹣cuts of the Chinese character（汉字）"Fu"upside down on the door. At wedding ceremonies（婚礼），you can always see paper﹣cuts of the character"Xi". It means that the new couple can enjoy happiness together.
Paper﹣cuts from the north of China usually have interesting shapes. In southern China，people prefer paper﹣cuts with the themes（主题）of flowers，fruit，birds and fish.
It's quite easy to learn paper cutting. With a piece of paper and a knife or a pair of scissors，you can try to make your own paper﹣cuts. But you need a lot of practice and imagination to become really good at it.
A. Paper cutting is easy to start with. B. Sometimes，people use them as gifts. C. They hope that "Fu Dao" will bring them good luck. D. That is why paper﹣cuts are also called"window flowers". E. Paper cutting has developed into different styles in different parts of China. |
