A science fiction flying car looks like a normal car, but it is an aircraft (飞行器) that anybody can fly directly from any place to another without using roads or runways. Science fiction writers have written about flying cars for a long time. But now flying cars will soon fly out of the world of science fiction into our real world. And the dream of the science fiction writers will soon come true.

    The first-known sky car is the FSC-1. The FSC-1 looks like an expensive sports car. You can drive the FSC-1 on the road like a normal car. If you touch a button, its wings and propeller (螺旋桨) fold out and then it can take off, fly and land as an airplane. The owners of the FSC-1 can choose if they want to drive or fly.

Another flying car or sky car is the Moller Skycar M400. Although you can't drive it on the roads, it is small and easy to fly and can take off and land like a helicopter (直升飞机). Urban Aeronautics' X-Hawk is another type of sky car. It is expected to be available for about $3 million.

    Just like any new technology, flying cars have taken a long time to be developed. But some experts think the technology is far from what people imagine when they are sitting in traffic. It still needs to be improved.

    Developing healthy eating habits starts from childhood, therefore it is important for parents to teach and provide children with a healthy diet.

    DPHSS administrator of the Bureau of Nutrition Services, Charlie Morris said, "A healthy diet for a child always includes a lot of fruits and vegetables in the diet limiting the amount of simple sugars in the diet and high fat food and highly processed* food." This means staying away as much as possible from food such as chips, cookies, candies and sugary drinks, because all children need to have meals and the meals should be a well-balanced diet.

    Community nutritionist* Thelma Romoso said, "The fruit, the vegetable, the grain, the protein, and also the milk, the diary product are all necessary in the diet for a child. Among them, the fruit and the vegetable should come first. It's easy for a mother to go into the two plus three concept* of fruits and vegetables or five a day." This concept means that there are at least two servings* of fruits a day, three servings of vegetables a day which can be served for lunch and dinner.

    Morris also said that the child's hunger level influences how much is eaten and the parent controls what and when the meal is offered, saying, "Mom needs to make sure that the food offered is good food for the child to eat and she also needs to consider how active they are through the day. Snacks* are not a bad thing, so the mom should offer good kinds of snacks as well."

    When it comes to preparing your child's lunch and snacks for school, make sure to keep in mind that the food you provide should not only provide enough energy but also be healthy such as fresh fruits, and whole grain bread. But parents must be sure to remember that a good healthy diet must be balanced with physical activity, that is to say, it is important that children get outside and run around and play and get activity besides eating a good diet.

    Would you like to go to the zoo at night? Last month, Shanghai Wild Animal Park opened its night safari(夜间观赏)for the first time. You can see animals in the dark. Some animals enjoy the night—they are nocturnal(夜行的)animals. Who are they?

    Which animal do you think is "the king of the animals", the elephant, the lion or the tiger? They are all large and strong. But I think the tiger is "the king of the animals". If you watch carefully, you can find some black lines on the tiger's forehead(前额). The lines look like the Chinese word "WANG". The word means "the king of the world" in Chinese.

    Most of the tigers come from China and India. Tigers are dangerous animals. They look scary(吓人的). They like eating meat. They have yellow fur with black lines. They usually weigh about 200 to 300kg. Tigers can run fast. They run at a speed of 20 meters per second.

    Some people think they are dangerous. But they don't know tigers are in danger now. There are only 20 to 30 wild South China Tigers in China and less than 300 in the world. Lots of people kill them for their fur. We should take action to protect them.

    My name is Peter. I'm from New York and I am in Qingdao with my parents and my sister Lily now. My sister is eleven and I am twelve. We are in the same school. We go to school from Monday to Friday. Our parents are busy working and they don't have time to drive us to school. So we often go to school by bus. Sometimes we also ride a bike to school. We have four classes in the morning and two in the afternoon. My favorite subject is math. Science is my sister's favorite.

    I like sports. I like playing soccer and basketball very much. But I don't have much time to play them on weekdays. I help my sister with her math on Mondays, go shopping with my mother on Wednesdays, and practice Chinese on Friday afternoons. My Chinese friends help me with my Chinese. But on Saturdays and Sundays I can play sports, watch TV and surf the Internet.
