    How much do you know about the universe? In the huge universe, there is the Galaxy and many other galaxies. In the Galaxy, there is the Solar System and lots of other stars. In the Solar System, there is the sun, the earth and seven other planets. As we know, the eight planets go around their star —the sun. In our Earth—moon System, the moon goes around the earth. And because our earth keeps turning around the sun all the time, we have day and night. When our part of the earth turns to the sun, it is day. When our part of the earth turns away from the sun, it is night.

    Just because the moon is closer to the earth than the sun, it looks much bigger than the sun. The sun is big enough to give out very strong light. The moon itself can't give any light at all, but it looks quite bright, too. In fact, the light from the moon comes from the sun. Although, the moon looks much bigger and brighter than the sun and other stars, in fact, all the stars are much bigger and brighter than the moon. They look smaller than the moon also because they are farther away from us. It's clear that big things will look smaller when they are farther, and small things look bigger when they are nearer.

So far, we have traveled to many other planets in the universe. But scientists haven't discovered any living things on any other planets. Scientists haven't discovered any other planets with a good environment. They aren't sure if there is any water and air for living things to live on other planets. People always ask the question: Is there anyone out space? Our scientists haven't got a clear answer either. Some people think it will be a secret for a long time. But we believe we can solve the problem some day.

Exploring our Solar System and the universe is a great national project to some countries. Our Chinese scientists are also trying to send spaceships with astronauts to those planets and even the universe. At 9:00 a.m. on October 15th, 2003, a Chinese astronaut called Yang Liwei was sent up to space. He stayed there for hours and got back to the earth at 6:00 a.m. the next day. It was the first time for Chinese to have a space travel.

When you meet problems, whom will you ask for help? Here is the result of a survey (调查) among 3,000 middle school students. It says that students turn to different people for help in the face of difficulties.

The result shows that 36% of the students ask their parents for help. They think parents have more experience. But parents sometimes ask questions directly (直接地). This makes them uncomfortable (不舒服的). Some students turn to their classmates or friends for help. Because they have more common topics (话题) and can understand each other well. Some try to solve the problem by themselves. While some students think it's free to talk to Dr. Know about the problems. They choose to write to the newspaper and ask for help. The others just do nothing.

Here are some tips on asking for help.

Share your problems. You should explain politely, quickly and clearly when you need help.

Watch and listen to your helper. You need to write down the advice on how to solve your problem.

Remember, the better you're able to remember how to solve your problem, the less likely (可能的) you need to ask for help again.

Unhappiness won't stay for a long time, so don't think problems will catch you all the time. Instead, try to ask somebody to help with the problems and you will see the bright side.

Ghaffar Pourazar, a British man, has learned the necessary skills to perform Beijing Opera and he has become popular with his lively performance of the Monkey King, a traditional character from the Chinese classic story Journey to the West.

In 1993, he happened to watch Beijing Opera performed in London by professionals from Jingju Theatre Company of Beijing. Ghaffar fell in love with the beautiful voices, colorful costumes, excellent shows and so on. So after a year, he arrived in China alone and became a student of Beijing Opera.

At the age of 32, he had to learn with teenage students every day, starting from the most basic training of the legs and waist (腰). At that time, he was mostly troubled by the dialogue in Beijing Opera. To him, it was the biggest problem. But he tried his best to practice it. 4 years later, he began to learn to perform the Monkey King. He usually arrived at the workroom on hour earlier than the other performers and he also bought books and CDs to understand the character better. Finally, He once won a top international prize for performing the Monkey King.

To help more people enjoy Beijing Opera, Ghaffar often teaches the traditional art form in schools in the United States, Britain and other countries. Ghaffar led a group of actors to perform 66 times in a month and a half in the United States. He also led a 48-member team to perform in Malaysia. In the past 10 years, he has performed in more than 400 shows.

 Governments around the world are pushing for an end to plastic bags. More and more businesses are changing to paper products. Using paper is thought to be better than plastic.

However, it is harmful to the environment, too.

 Firstly, paper bags are made from trees. Trees, as you know, are good for the environment. They can slow down climate change. An increase in the use of paper bags can cause more deforestation(毁林).

 Secondly, the production of paper things requires more energy and water. About 10 percent more energy and four times as much water is used to produce a paper bag than a plastic one. You might say that we can use recycled paper to save that energy and water. This seems to be a good idea. However, it takes even more energy and water to go through the recycling process than to make a new paper bag. Products made from recycled paper are also often short-lived.

 Furthermore, paper products are heavier than plastic ones. That means they require more fuel to transport. Seven trucks are needed to transport two million paper bags, while only one truck is needed to transport the same number of plastic bags. The increased weight also leads to a larger amount of waste once the bags are thrown away.

 So, paper products are actually a lose-lose for both the environment and businesses. They are more expensive than plastic products. A paper straw costs about 5 to 12 cents, while a plastic one usually costs only about 2 cents.

 In my opinion, the most environment-friendly way is to avoid single-use things altogether. Products like glass water bottles and steel straws can be used over and over again. They are much better than either paper products or plastic products. By increasing the use of these items, you can greatly reduce your throwaway waste and truly make our earth a greener place!
