He saw a tall mango tree and put his bag of caps beside him and slept under the tree. When he woke up, he 3 there weren't any caps in his bag!
"Oh," he said to himself, "Did 4 steal all my caps?" But then he noticed that the mango tree was full 5 cute monkeys wearing colorful caps! He shouted at the monkeys and they shouted back. He made faces at 6 and then the monkeys made faces, too.
He 7 his own cap angrily and put it on the ground. The stupid monkeys threw their caps, too! Karim didn't waste a second, collected the caps and was on his way.
Fifty years later, young Abdul, grandson of Karim, who also sold caps, was going through the same 8 .

The Beijing Winter Olympic Games saw many young players shine on the biggest stage. Let's take a look at three of them.
| At just the age of 18, Su Yiming won China's first gold medal in men's snowboarding. He practiced hard and when he achieved his dream, he said, "I want to say to all Chinese snowboarders that they should keep working hard and never give up, because dreams can come true." |
| Gu Ailing, an 18-year-old girl, got two gold medals. She is known for her strong will and hard work. She encourages teenagers to challenge themselves through winter sports. "I love feeling nervous and then overcoming (克服) it, feeling that rush… that got me into skiing," she said. |
| Li Wenlong, a 21-year-old speed skater, skated behind his teammates as a team tactic (战术). With his help, Ren Ziwei won the gold medal. And he himself crossed the line in second place. "I'm very excited. This silver is just the beginning," he said, "I'm going to keep going and hope to one day change the color of the medal to gold." |
Honeybees（蜜蜂）are great dancers, but they don't just dance for fun. Dancing is also their way of communicating. The bee dance is called the "waggle dance"（摇摆舞）.
Waggle dance helps bees find food. If a bee finds something to eat, it will start dancing. First, the bee's position shows other bees which way to go. Second, if the bee shakes a lot, that means the food is far away. Less shaking means the food is closer. Third, if the bee dances for a long time, it means the food is very delicious.
A research team studied honeybee dance moves. The scientists are from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences（中国科学院西双版纳热带植物园）. They found out how bees learn the waggle dance. Young bees learn from older bees.
The scientists recorded videos of bees in a laboratory. Then they compared two groups of young bees. The bees were only 10 days old. In one group, young bees could watch older ones dance. These young bees became good dancers. In the other group, young bees could not watch older dancers. These young bees could not dance as well as the first group.
This study changed how scientists think about bees. They used to think all bees could do the waggle dance without having to learn it. Now they know young bees learn it by watching the older ones.
Chopsticks are a pair of small equal-length sticks, usually made of wood, used for eating Asian food. It is believed that the first chopsticks were developed in China. Chopsticks play an important role in Chinese food culture. Chinese chopsticks are usually 9 to 10 inches long. They are round on the eating end which means heaven（天）, and the other end is square which means earth（地）. The appearance（出现）of chopsticks said goodbye to those days when our Chinese ancestors had to use their hands to eat.
Besides, the use of chopsticks has also been a part of Chinese food culture. There are some taboos that you must pay great attention to when you use chopsticks. Firstly, don't use them to hit your bowl or plate. Secondly, never use them to point at others. Thirdly, don't put them in different food without taking something. Fourthly, don't cross the chopsticks on the table. And lastly don't leave your chopsticks standing in the rice. Chinese people do this only when they honour the dead.
Nowadays, chopsticks have many new usages. For example, you can buy a pair as a gift to your friends and relatives. In Chinese, it reads "kuaizi", which means having sons soon, so a newly-married couple will be very happy to accept it as their wedding gift.
