    Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can't sleep at night? Then you cannot pay enough attention during a test or in your study. If so, then you know that is stress. You are worried too much about something. The bad feeling in your mind can make you angry, sad, or scared, and can even give you a stomachache or a headache.

    However, some kind of stress is good. You might feel excited when you are called to give a speech at school. You feel nervous but excited. This kind of stress can help you to get things well done. And you may do a better job in your test if the stress pushes you to prepare more beforehand(提前).

    On the other hand, bad stress can last long if you are unable to come over your problems. You may not feel well, if your parents are having a quarrel, if a family member is badly ill, if you're doing poorly at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy. That kind of stress isn't going to help you. And it can actually let you do worse in your daily life.

    The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life. Make sure you get enough sleep and eat properly. Have some regular exercise. You should take some time for fun. Get advice from your parents, teachers and friends. Soon after that, you'll probably get away with your stress.

    One sunny afternoon, I went for a walk on the beach. There I saw a special crab (螃蟹). It had two claws (螯).一个螯比另一个人螯大得多、长的多。I had never seen such a crab before. So on my way home from the beach, I walked into the library.

    Luckily, I found a book named Come with me to the Edge of the Sea. It had many pictures of animals living near the sea. The pictures of male fiddler crabs (雄性招潮蟹) looked quite like the crab I found on the beach. I learned a lot about that kind of crab.

    Sometimes a fiddler crab puts the small claw across the big one. It looks like it is playing the fiddle (violin) when it does this, so some people call it the fiddler crab Sometimes it waves its big claw. It looks like it is saying hello. That's why other people call it the calling crab. Fiddler crabs' eyes are on long eye stalks (眼柄). They can put up their eye stalks to look around~ It makes them look taller.

    These crabs are very small. There are lots of other, bigger beach animals that want to eat them. They dig holes in the sand (在沙子里挖洞). The holes are their homes. They are safe inside them. Sometimes the sea water can bring food into their holes.

    Hello. I am a dog and my name is Happy. My owner (主人) is Nancy. She loves me very much and she likes to dress me up. So I have many nice clothes.

    In the morning, Nancy always gets up early and makes breakfast for me. I usually get up at eight and then enjoy breakfast. I eat quickly so I can take a walk with her in the park after breakfast. At nine, we get back home. She cleans her room and then goes to work. I stay at home and play with my ball. When Nancy doesn't work, she takes me to go out to have a good time. When we go somewhere, Nancy usually puts (放) me in a bag. It is easy for her to take me in that way. I live a happy life with Nancy and I love her very much.

    Do you enjoy reading? Here readers of your age from all over the United States recommend(推荐) great books for you to read:

    My favourite book is Don't Die, My Love, written by Lurlene McDaniel. I love all her books, but this was the first one I read and I have to say, it is by far my favourite. It doesn't end like other books, and I cried while reading.

    I think Nancy Drew is great! Nancy is a detective(侦探) who has many fantastic ideas! I love it because it's a book from when my grandma was my age, and I can share fun with her!

    I recommend Skinny Bones. Its writer is Barbara Park. It is funny, so please add it on your book list. You don't want to miss funny stories!

    I suggest Growing Trouble by Judy Blume. It is based(以......为基础) on real things that happened to Judy Blume. It is about a girl, Alice, who meets some girls at a new state.

    They become friends, make a club and meet once a week. They stop after two weeks because they all like a boy in their class and put him as number one. I think every girl should read this because it is about our growing up.
