I have a good friend. 1name is Simon. We both like motorbikes (摩托车) and we are in the2motorbike club. Simon often 3 his motorbike very fast and he likes to 4 how fast he can ride.

    One day, a thief (小偷) rides a motorbike to his home, goes in and takes 5 of his things away. Then the thief runs out of Simon's home 6. Simon sees him and he rides7 him, and shouts (喊叫), "Hey! Don't you know you 8 ride faster than me?"

    The thief says nothing, 9 he rides much faster. Simon finds that. He10rides even faster. He is soon very 11 away from his home. Then h12 in front of a shop. I see him and ask him, "Why do you ride so fast, Simon?"

    "I 13 to get a thief," says Simon. "But14 is the thief?" I ask.

    "Kilometers behind," says Simon happily. "He15he can ride faster than me, but you see he can't."

    Mike was reading in the garden when his mother came. She pointed to something and asked Mike what it was. Mike felt quite 1, but he told her it was a sparrow (麻雀) and got back into reading. Several minutes later, his mother pointed to the same sparrow and asked the same question again. Mike got a little angry but 2 answered her question. After a little while, his mother did the same thing once more. This time Mike could not 3 his anger. He shouted at her for disturbing him again and again.

    The old lady silently 4 an old diary, turned to a page and showed it to Mike. Though a little impatient, Mike began to read it.

    "Today, I was watering the flowers in the garden when little Mike pointed to a 5 on the grass and asked me what it was. I 6 at him, said it was a sparrow and kissed him.

    After a while Mike asked me again and I did the same. Pointing to the same sparrow, little Mike asked me what it was twenty times and I 7 answering his question and kissing him every time.

    Something gently touched Mike's 8. His face turned red with 9 for being so impatient to his mother and he hugged (拥抱) her tightly.

    Your parents have given you many things in their lifetime, but you may not 10 that until they are gone.

    One day, a farmer was walking along a road with his son Thomas when they saw a horseshoe on the ground. The father said to his son, "Look at the horseshoe on the ground. Go and1the horseshoe and put it in your bag, my son." But Thomas said, "If I do so, it will waste my time." His father said nothing but picked it up himself. When they2a nearby town, they had a rest. There the farmer sold the horseshoe and3some strawberries with the money.

    The father and the son went on walking. The sun was high up in the4. They soon drank up all their water and there was not a house or even a tree for them to have a rest. Thomas felt5thirsty to walk on. At that time, his father gave him a strawberry and he6ate it. After a while, his father gave him another strawberry and once again, his son got it quickly and put it in his mouth.

    And so they7walking. The old farmer gave strawberries and the son ate them. When Thomas had eaten up all the strawberries, his father said to him, "My dear son, if you picked up that8, you would have your own strawberries to eat. Always remember the9: if you don't worry about the little things, you will find it difficult to do the10things. "

At 15:40 on December 9th, 2021, the "space teacher", Wang Yaping, made some experiments in the Tianhe Core Module of the Chinese Space Station.

"Welcome to the ‘Tiangong Classroom!' " said Wang Yaping.

Taking a "spacewalk" is difficult. Ye Guangfu was working hard to walk, but his body floated! Then he tried to turn around but he couldn't. "In space, astronauts are in a weightless environment. So we need to use nearby devices (装置) to move," he said.

The paper flower "blooms". In the "Tiangong Classroom", Wang Yaping made a beautiful water film (水膜). Then she took out a paper flower and placed it on the film of water. The pink flower slowly "bloomed"! "I hope your dreams can bloom in the huge universe!" she said.

"Space Happy Ball" rings fun. Wang Yaping asked the children on the ground to put their ping pong ball in the water. The density (密度) of the ball was less than that of the water, so it floated up. In space, when she put the ping pong ball into the water, it did not float up to the surface. It stopped in the center of the water! "The buoyancy (浮力) disappears in a weightless environment in space so the ping pong ball cannot float (漂浮)." Ms. Wang explained.

My name is Helen. I study at a middle school in Nanjing. My school is not far away from my home, so I usually go to school on foot. Sometimes, I go there in my father's car. My school is nice. Of all the buildings, I like the school library best. It's a new building in my school It's so big. It has four floors. Every school day, it's Open from 9 am to 6 pm. I like storybooks best. And I also like geography books. Every month, there are interesting activities in the library. I love them too.
