People have understood that kindness is good for the person who receives help. For example, when we give food to a hungry person, he is lucky. However, scientists have recently begun to study the effect(影响)of the kindness on the person giving it. What they have found is that doing good is good for the doer(行为者).Acts of kindness can improve health, help a person reach goals and even add years to a person's life.

    The first study to show the connection between doing good and living a long life was a study on aging(衰老). Beginning in 1956, scientists studied a group of married mothers for 30 years. They thought the women with the most children would die first. But the number of children a woman had did not matter. Wealth did not matter. Education did not matter. What did matter was whether they volunteered. Women that volunteered had fewer diseases during their life.

    Many other studies have found the same positive(积极的)effects. Helping other people improves long-term health. The gains are the same for men, women, old people and the young. Those who volunteered had fewer serious diseases than those who did not volunteer. This included diseases such as heart attack, cancer and stroke.

    Scientists are studying many possible causes. One possible cause is an increase in antibodies(抗体)，which help fight against disease. One study showed the body produces more antibodies after an act of kindness.

    Another one is an increase in Oxytocin(催生素)，it is a chemical that fights the effects of stress from life. Scientists have found a link between being kind to people and an increase in the chemical oxytocin.

Anne and Joseph are talking about an interesting question.1 do some people change(改变) their names? Hanna changes her name to Anne because(因为)2 thinks it will be easier for people to remember. On the other hand, Joseph is also thinking about changing his3 because he wants to be cool. 

People have4 reasons(原因) for changing their names. Film stars, singers, sportsmen 5 change their names. They hope that their names are6 or have special(特殊的) sounds. They also choose the "new name" for7 luck.

Some people have another reason for changing their names. They have moved(搬迁) to a new country(国家) and want8 a name that is usual there. For example, Rasheed Shyyab9 Turkey(土耳其) changed his name to Ran Shide when he moved to China. He used Ran at his job and at school. For some people, using different names 10 life easier in their new countries.

Many of us like to read books. We read everything from fiction to nonfiction. In the past, we could only read traditional paper books. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}.

Now, we can read e-books most of the time. They still have covers and pages, but they're not made of paper. Instead, they're pictures on a screen. Some people love to read e-books. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} They can read them on their mobile phones and computers. However, in another way, they're not so great because they have changed the way people read.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#} Sometimes, we feel like we're in the stories and forget the real world while reading traditional books. However, that's not true with e-books. With them, we might not focus on the books and we may pay attention to other things.

When we read an e-book written in a foreign language, we may meet new words. That takes us out of the stories and to an online dictionary. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} During surfing, we can also chat with our friends, check our emails, surf the Internet, search for things to buy, and more.

In a word, e-books are becoming popular. They make a difference on our reading habits. Our eyes stop reading everything on the page. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Some people don't mind that, but for others, it takes the fun out of reading.

A．We can look for key words to get information quickly.

B．From e-books, we can easily change to something else.

C．They have front and back covers and many pages in between.

D．With traditional books, we mainly pay attention to the stories.

E．E-books are great because people can carry a "library" of books with them all the time.

Do you like eating wonton（馄饨）？The wonton is a kind of popular food. It is as popular around the world as in China. You can find wonton restaurants in America, England, and many other countries. 

Wonton is a kind of traditional food in the north of China. In different parts of China, wonton has different names. In the north, the wonton is called Huntun. In Guangdong, it is called Yuntun. People in Sichuan call it Chaoshou. In Fujian, it is called Bianshi. 

Do you want to know how to make wonton? It's very easy. First, prepare some meat and vegetable mix and wrappers(馄饨皮). Next, use a spoon to fill a wrapper with some of this mix. Then, put the outside of the wrapper together with your fingers. Finally, put the wonton in a pot and cook it for a few minutes. 

There are two reasons why wonton is popular with people. The first reason is about the taste. It is delicious. The second one is about its price. It's not expensive. Everybody can buy it. 

Animal superstars

Recently（最近）, some cute animals have got so many fans online. Why are they so popular（受欢迎）?

Panda Huahua

The full name of this three - year- old animal star is Cheng Hehua. She lives in Chengdu, Sichuan. and visitors may wait for up to three hours to just see her. Why do people like her? Because she is shorter than other pandas of her age. That makes her look fat and round. Some people even say she looks like a triangular（三角形的） rice ball when she sits. That's really fun!

Capybara

Capybaras are the biggest rodents（啮齿动物） on Earth. Nowadays, the name "capybara" has become a buzzword（热词） in China, and people like capybara toys. Why do people like capybaras? Because they are friendly. They can make friends with everyone - turtles（乌龟）, ducks or even monkeys. Sometimes, capybaras become "animal buses" while moving. They take small animals for a free ride.
