Students at our school show their favorite art forms in handmade papers. Let's see some of them.

I love Chinese oil-paper umbrellas not because they can protect people from rain or sunlight, but because they show poetic (诗章的) beauty. Zhou Yirui |

I like Dian Cha, a tea art from Song Dynasty. People "draw" beautiful pictures on the tea. I like it because it mixes tradition and fun together, which is very creative. Shen Bingying |

If people around you have had a fever recently, it may not be COVID-19. According to China Daily, many places in China have entered into the peak (高峰) period for seasonal (季节性的) flu. Influenza A (甲流) is sweeping across the country. To protect ourselves, it is useful to know about the following:
☆Symptoms (症状) of influenza A:
Cough, fever above 38℃, headache, sore throat
☆How to recover?
Most people don't need to take medicine. The symptoms can go away after 3 to 7 days. But if the fever doesn't go down after three days, go to see a doctor.
☆How is the virus spread (传播)?
Through coughs or sneezes (喷嚏). The viruses go into the air. If someone nearby breathes them in, they could get sick.
☆How to prevent it?
If you catch the flu, go back to school 48 hours after the symptoms go away.
Take vaccines (疫苗)
Wash hands often
Open windows often
①cough ②fever above 38℃ ③sneezes ④headache ⑤sore throat
Recently I watched a movie called Home Coming (《万里归途》). It's about China saving its people from other countries.
A war breaks out in a country in North Africa. Millions of Chinese people are in danger. They look forward to coming back to China and seeing their families. The Chinese government (政府) begins to help them leave right away.
One thing touched me the most. When Zong Dawei, the main character, finally gets back home, it is Chinese New Year. The sound of fireworks (爆竹) is everywhere. This is a happy moment, but because of his experiences (经历) in North Africa, Zong is often scared of these sounds.
The contrast (对比) between the gunfire in war and the fireworks in peace (和平) taught me the cruelty (残酷) of war, the hard-won peace and the hard work of my motherland to let us live a safe life. It not only lets me feel the power of our motherland but also makes me feel proud of being Chinese.
After seeing the movie, I've made up my mind to work hard, hoping that I can work for the development of China in the future.
When you meet a stranger, what should you do? Should you meet a person you get to know on the Internet? These are some common problems you might face from time to time. Dealing with them in the right way can keep you safe. Jacky and Ella are kids like you. They have an example to share with you. Jacky and Ella are playing outside. A man comes by with a toy in his hand. "Can I join you?" he asks. Jacky: Sure, your toy looks fun. Ella: Sorry, our parents are waiting over there. We're going back to them. Who do you think is right, Jacky or Ella? Of course Ella is. So, how do you deal with them properly? Here are some rules. Rule 1 Say no to strangers who… give you snacks or other things to show friendliness. invite you to his or her home. offer you a ride. ask you for much information about you or your family. For example, which school do you go to? Who picks you up after school? Rule 2 ▲ you ask the ways to places. you buy things in the shops. you are in trouble but your parents are not with you. These strangers include police, security guards (保安) and shop assistants. They usually wear uniforms. Rule 3 When you meet a bad stranger, you'd better… leave as fast as you can. find a public place with many people around. shout "Help! I don't know this person." People around you can hear you and help you. |
①What will the schools be like in the future? Smart schools will be the schools of our century.These future schools are different from those in the past. They use high technology（科技）to help students learn more quickly and safely, as well as bring convenience（便利） to teachers.
②The University of British Columbia has built Canada's first 5G smart school. The school worked with a high-tech company（高科技公司）to build a 5G network across the school.
③At Staffordshire University in the UK, many students enjoy talking to Beacon and asking it questions. Beacon is an AI robot that was made by the university. It is like a personal helper for students. They can ask it questions, and it can answer as a real teacher.
④Amazon also has smart school things. Alexa, the company's voice-activated（声控的）smart robot, can be used to help teachers with their classes. For example, it can remember what the teacher's classroom is like, such as how bright the lights should be, and change them right away.
⑤"Cities are so big, and there are so many stakeholders（利益相关者）,so it can be difficult to change. But universities have their own buildings... so they can become a living lab." said Gemmy Ginty, a teacher who is working on smart schools for the University of Glasgow.

When I was a young girl my family lived a poor life in a village. One evening we were visiting our friends. Suddenly the storm came. We went home quickly. On our way home, my dad carried me on his back. My mom held my elder brother's hand, and held an umbrella for Dad and me. It rained heavily and the wind blew hard. It took us about two hours to get home. When we arrived home, our clothes were completely wet. The rain had come through the roof (屋顶) and windows, so our house was filled with rainwater. Mom helped my brother and me change some dry clothes and put us to bed. Then she put some bowls to collect the rain. I fell asleep soon. When I woke up, Dad and Mom were sleeping in chairs. This is my earliest memory (记忆) I realized my parents' great love for the first time.
Though time passed, I won't forget the rain we lived through together. The rain of that evening, and especially my parents' love will stay in my mind forever.
