Long long ago, there was a herd(群) of forest deer. In this herd was a wise and respected 1, tricky in the ways of deer. He taught the tricks and strategies of 2 to the young fawns(小鹿).
One day, his younger sister brought her son to him, to be taught 3 is so important for deer. She said, "Oh brother teacher, this is my son. Please 4him the tricks and strategies of deer." The teacher said to the fawn, "5, you can come at this time tomorrow for your first lesson."
6, the young deer came to the lessons as he was 7 to. But soon, he became more interested in playing with the other young bucks 8 does. He didn't realize how dangerous it 9 be for a deer who learned nothing but deer games. So he 10 cutting classes. Soon he was playing hooky(逃学) all the time.
11, one day the fawn who played hooky 12 in a snare(陷阱) and was trapped. Since he was missing, his mother 13. She went to her brother the teacher, and asked him, "My dear brother, how is my son? Have you 14 your nephew(侄子) the tricks and strategies of deer?"
The teacher replied, "My dear sister, your son was 15 and unteachable. Out of respect for you, I tried my best to teach him. But he did not want to learn the tricks and strategies of deer. He played hooky! How could I 16 teach him? You are obedient(顺从的) and faithful, but he is not. It is useless to try to teach him."
Later they heard the 17 news. The naughty fawn who played hooky had been 18 and killed by an experienced 19. He skinned him and took the meat home to his family.
Remember: 20 can be learned from a teacher by one who misses the class.
LONDON (Reuters) — Organic (有机的) fruit, sent right to the home. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26-year-old computer engineer will spend more money at the supermarket to buy organic food.
"Organic food is always better," Gold said. "The food is free of pesticides (农药), and you are generally for family farms instead of large farms. And often it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty." Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying the organic fruit, and supermarkets across Britain are depending more on people like him. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic food? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their choices — but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic food. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported (进口) to meet growing needs. "The needs for organic food are increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market," said Sue Flock, a specialist in this business.
Have you ever been ill? When you are ill, your body becomes hot, and there are pains all over your body. You must be unhappy because of it. You don't want to work. You stay in bed feeling sad.
What makes us ill? It's germs. Germs are everywhere. They are very small and you can't find them with your eyes, but you can see them with a microscope (显微镜). They are very, very small and there could be hundreds of them on a very small thing.
Germs are always found in dirty water. When we look at dirty water under the microscope, we can see them in it. So your father and mother will not let you drink dirty water.
Germs aren't found only in water. They are found in the air and dust (灰尘). If you cut your finger, and if some of the dust from the floor goes into the cut, some of the germs will go into your finger. Your finger will become big and red, and you will have much pain in it. Sometimes the germs will go into all of your body, and you will have pain everywhere.
Do you know Roma people? They were called Gypsies(吉普赛人) by Europeans because they thought they came from Egypt(a country in Africa). About a thousand years ago, the Roma people left their homeland. They are known as nomads because for hundreds of years many of them have lived in large groups that travel from place to place. They have no real homeland.
Today, the Roma are now living all over the world. They have kept their language and many customs. For example, it's important for Roma to marry other Roma. It's also a custom for parents to choose the person their children will marry. Roma people get married when they are young, sometimes even as young as 14.
Romany is the language of the Roma people, which was written down only recently. Because the Roma are nomadic and have moved all over the world, their language has developed in many different ways. It is sometimes hard for Roma in one part of the world to understand Roma from another part.
Roma music is famous all over the world, because many Roma throughout history have been musicians. Their music has influenced many other kinds of music, like classical and jazz.
Roma don't usually assimilate(同化) into host countries. Over many centuries, governments have forbidden them to marry each other, travel or wear their traditional bright clothes. They have their gold taken away from them—treasures (财富) from their parents and grandparents. They have been taken as slaves(奴隶), and have been forced to change their names.
But today, the Roma are finding ways to live in peace with others while keeping the treasures of their culture. "There's a will within us to continue to live as a people," says George Kaslov, whose family arrived in New York from Russia a hundred years ago. "All the other ethnic(种族) groups who came to America assimilate gradually with time going; they lose their customs and language. But not the Roma. We hold out."
Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
This is old saying. Have you (hear) of it before? It means that we should go to bed early and up early in the next morning. By (do) this, we will be in good health. And we'll also be rich and clever.
It's true that (we) bodies need to have enough sleep to be healthy. (child) should have a ten-hour sleep every night. Those who do not have enough sleep can't do their work very well. They will not be clever and they may not get wealthy in the future.
The body needs exercise as well. Walking, running, jumping, (ride) bikes and playing games are all exercise.
Exercise (help) to keep the body strong and fit. It helps to keep the blood to move around inside the body. The blood takes the food all parts of the body. The head needs blood, too. So exercise helps people think better.
