A Dream from the Students
I'm Mu Bo from Hubei. Now I'm studying in Chongqing. My favorite subject is science. I have science classes every Monday and Wednesday. I hope I can create a machine that can help students learn different subjects in a short time in the future.
My name is Li Xiang. I come from Chongqing. Now I want to be a doctor in the future. I'd like to help more sick people because so many people have helped us on these terrible days.
My name is Le Zhuiqiu. I'm a14-year-old girl in Tibet. My younger sister Le Chenggong and I are not in the same class. Many years ago, people could not come to Chongqing by train. Because of the Qinghai-Tibet Rail, we are able to go to Chongqing by train now. My dream is to take the train to Chongqing with my family next time.
Bad breath(呼吸) is a big problem. It may make people feel bad if we have it when we are talking to them.
Why do we have bad breath? If we don't brush our teeth, bacteria (细菌) will live between our teeth and make our breath smell bad. Food like onions can also make us have bad breath. Smoking is an important reason(原因) for bad breath.
How can we stop bad breath? Some people say that mouthwash (漱口剂) can make bad breath go away, but it's not true. Mouthwash only stops bad breath for a short time. Some people also say that brushing teeth can stop bad breath. The fact is that most people only brush teeth for 30-45 seconds(秒). It doesn't work at all. We should brush our teeth for about 2 minutes twice a day.
If we don't want to have bad breath, be sure to take good care of our teeth.
Who was the most talented person that ever lived? It might be Leonardo Da Vinci. The Italian was a painter, sculptor (雕塑家) and inventor. This year, we celebrated his 566th birthday on April 15th.
Da Vinci is still widely considered as one of the greatest painters. His most famous painting, the Mona Lisa which still sits in the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫), is one of the greatest art works of the world.
The Mona Lisa is famous for the mysterious(神秘的) smile. What is the reason for the woman's smile? This is a question always asked, but it remains unanswered to this day.
Some believe that the Mona Lisa is actually a portrait (肖像) of Da Vinci himself! This is because some of her expressions on the face are similar to those in one of Da Vinci's self-portraits. Others might suggest she smiles because she has lost her teeth! We will never know for sure… It is just fun to guess!
But the new research from scientists showed that some people even think she isn't smiling but looks unhappy. The scientists also said that if Mona Lisa doesn't look happy to you, it might be because of your own feelings.The researchers showed 43 people two groups of pictures. Group One all had neutral(中性的) faces. Group Two had happy and angry faces. Each time, people saw two pictures, one from Group One, the other from Group Two. Later, they described what the neutral faces were like. When people saw a neutral face after a happy face, most of them thought it was smiling. When they saw a neutral face after a sad face, most of them thought it had a sad expression. Scientists believe our brain has predictive (预测性的) power. People use their past experiences to predict what they are going to experience next.
"____▲____" said Erika Siegel, one of the researchers. "However, if you see the Mona Lisa after you have great fun, you can see her beautiful smile. "

She is a cute, quiet girl. As a daughter, she has no secrets from her mother, who is very pleased with her. But recently she has become quite mysterious(神秘的), not so open as her. What if she falls in love, which is too early of her age? After all, she is reaching the "dangerous time". These thoughts have caused trouble in the mother's mind.
One weekend the girl came to tell her mother that she was going to the cinema with her schoolmate and would return late. This was the first time her mother agreed, and she couldn't help worrying because her daughter had never been away at night before. The mother waited till nine and decided to go out to meet her daughter. Just at that time the noise of a car pulling up drew her to the window and—there was her daughter, waving goodbye to a boy. Her heart missed a beat. When the girl came in, the mother was watching TV, pretending nothing had happened. "Mum. I'm back. " "Yeah." "Sorry to be late. Still sitting up? " "Yes. Oh, that. . . Who's that boy? "The daughter was stunned(发愣) for some time. "Ah. It's my monitor. He gave me a lift on his way home. Mum, I'm going to bed. " "All right. Go to sleep early. "
Next morning when the mother went to the daughter's room to do some tidying, she found her diary, left at her pillow(枕头). After a few minutes' hesitation(犹豫), she finally opened it to the page of last night. It says: Mum, it's love that made you ask, but it would show your understanding of me if you hadn't. Holding the diary, the mother feel in thought.
There are many expressions with heart. One of them is to "lose your heart" to someone. When that happens, you have fallen in love. But if the person who "won your heart" does not love you, then you are sure to have a "broken heart". In your sadness, you think that the person you loved is "hard-hearted", and in fact, has a "heart of stone.
You may decide to "pour out your heart" to a friend. Telling someone about your personal problems can often make you feel better.
If your friend does not seem to understand how painful your broken heart is, you may ask her to "have a heart". You are asking your friend to show some sympathy(同情) for your situation. Your friend "has her heart in the right place" if she says she is sorry for how you feel.
If your friend says, "My heart bleeds(流血) for you", she means the opposite. She is a "cold-hearted" person and does not really care about your situation.
When you are feeling afraid, "your heart is in your mouth". You might say, for example, that your heart was in your mouth when you asked a bank to lend you some money for a new house.
If that bank says no to you, don't "lose heart". Be "strong-hearted". Sit down with the banker and have a "heart to heart" talk. Be open and honest about your situation. The bank may have a "change of heart" and agree to lend you the money. Then you can stop worrying and "put your heart at rest"
