Do you know Chen Yixun? He is a great singer from Hong Kong. He has a lot of beautiful songs, so many people love him. This year Chen Yixun gives concerts (演唱会) in some cities in China. And on November 7 the concert is in Jiaxing.

    Chen Yixun wants to give great concerts, and he does a lot of work for that. First, he practises singing every day. And he always drinks warm water. There are also dances at the concerts, so he needs to practice dancing, too. It's a hard job. Then, he also needs to do exercise like running and swimming. He has to be healthy and strong for the concerts.

    “I have a busy life, but I love it. I enjoy singing and I wish to give great shows to people,” says Chen Yixun. Wish him good luck!

    Do you check your mobile phone often? Do you feel anxious if your mobile phone is not with you? When there is no WiFi or signal for your mobile phone, will you get nervous? If you say yes, then you've got addiction(上瘾) to mobile phones.

    ①Nowadays, we can see the scene everywhere in the life: in subways, restaurants, roads,people are watching their mobile phones. From family party to dating with friend, people couldn't top checking their twitter, WeChat, facebook on the mobile phones and snubbing(忽视)the persons in front completely. Phubbing (低头症) influences not only the young people, but also the old and even the kids.

    "Phubbing" is a new word which comes from the words "phone" and "snub". It describes the habit of snubbing someone in favor of a mobile phone. ②因为玩手机，更多的人变得沉默。They do nothing but bow to play mobile phones.③ time, spend too, they, phones, much, the on(.) And they don't have time to communicate with persons in real life.

    If we keep playing with phones when we are with our friends or family, we will spend less time talking to them. In fact, they need and deserve to be cared for.

    Let us put down the cell phones and enjoy the nature, the food, the books and all the beautiful things and persons around us.

    When we talked about the space, we know the universe means the earth, the sun, the moon, the stars and so on in space. Many of the stars are so far away that we can't see them.

    Through our geography lessons, we know the earth ①goes around the sun, and the moon goes around the earth.

    We have day and night because the earth keeps moving all the time. Just because the moon is closer to the earth than the sun, it looks much bigger than the sun. ②The sun is bright enough to give out very strong light. The moon can't give any light at all, but it looks quite bright, too. Why? In fact, the light from the moon comes from the sun. ③But in fact the stars are much bigger and brighter than the moon.

    ④在宇宙中仍然有许多其他的行星。But of all these planets, only on the earth there are living things. People on the earth have studied the space all the time. They've sent many spaceships into the space many times. On November 3 and 14,2011,Chinese scientists let Shenzhou Ⅷ successfully dock with(对接)the Tiangong Ⅰtwice. This is one of the greatest events in the history of China's space.

There are some things that are almost impossible to say to our close friends — especially if we want (A) them to be our friends for life. Are you wondering what problems others have?

"I can't stand your other friends."

    (B)My best friend, Kate, sometimes hangs out with some people that I really don't like. I think they have a bad influence on her, and she only spends time with them because they are "cool". Could you tell me if I should bring the matter up with her, or if it would be better for me to keep quiet? I don't want to lose her as a friend.

— Linda

"I won't help you cheat."

    My closest friend, Kim, has lost interest in school and studying. He says he's bored with the whole thing, so he often asks me whether I'll let him copy my homework. By now I've said no, but he keeps asking me. I told him, "I think we'll get in trouble." but he just laughed and told me not to worry. I don't want to put my grades at risk, but I'm afraid to face my friend about this, so I just keep avoiding the topic. How can I get him to stop asking? I was wondering if you could give me some suggestions for dealing with my problem.

— Mike

"No, I CAN'T do that for you!"

    Anna is my best friend. We get along with each other well, but she is asking me to do things for her all the time. "Could you help me pick out some new clothes? Would you mind if I borrowed your bike? Can you look after my apartment while I'm away?" And these are just a few examples. I've said yes so many times that now I'm afraid I'll hurt her feelings if I say no. Any ideas?

    Some bad habits are making you grow old fast. Cut down the following habits today for a more beautiful, healthier tomorrow.

    Waiting for you sadness to go away

    Sadness isn't just uncomfortable; it also makes you become older fast. Take your mental(精神的)health as seriously as your physical health. If you've been fighting with your sadness for more than two weeks, be sure to find professional help. Paying no attention to your sadness or just waiting without doing anything can do harm to your mental health and make you older.

    Having a cigarette or two on weekends

    If you smoke only when you are with your friends on weekends, can you keep away from the harmful effects of smoking? The answer is". Smoking can break down your skin's elasticity(弹性). Your smoking habit may even make your hair become gray. Changing your smoking habit is changing your life.

    Having a long to do list day after day

    It's natural to have a to-do list in our "go, go, go" daily life. But if you're always running from one thing to the next, and caught in too much business, you are turning older fast, because your too long to-do list makes you tired and under lots of stress. Stress can cause heart disease high blood pressure and other physical diseases. It can also cause mental health problems or make the problems worse and worse.

    There has been a lot of talk about Chinese bicycle sharing recently. Shared bikes are nowadays becoming the centre of attention in our We Chat friend circle. Many of our friends post photos of themselves riding bikes, especially during the weekend in natural parks, and we can see people logging in and out of shared bike apps. But are people really drawn to(被....所吸引) the idea of exercise and green transportation all of a sudden?

    Some people have tried Mobikes lately, and they don't particularly like Mobikes. They think the first generation Mobikes, the ones without baskets, are designed for athletes. They are very hard to ride, and the seat is not adjustable(可调节的). Then, they tried the yellow ofo bikes. They are easier to ride than Mobikes, but they don't usually have baskets, and you need to enter the password by hand, instead of scanning a QR code and having the lock open automatically like with Mobikes.

    We appreciate that there are shared bikes on the roads. They have saved us a lot of time during emergency situations. And on beautiful, clear days, we do enjoy riding them outside the city. But from what we've seen in our friend circles, people have been giving them endless praises, while we still saw some obvious flaws (缺陷).

    In our experience, there has never been a unanimous(一致的) decision on anything in public opinion. It makes us wonder whether these people really like riding shared bikes or are just saying this to agree with others. When we asked them individually, a friend of us, Lisa, secretly told us she tried the bikes to fit in(融入朋友圈). She doesn't like bikes and finds city's roads too harsh for bike riding. But the only way to hang out with her friends was riding out of town together. To join in social activities, she had to pick up bike riding again. Another young man, Simon admitted that he started talking about and forwarding information(转发信息) on shared bikes to appear cool and fashionable to friends. He started paying attention when Mobikes firs launched(推出). These views will give us something new to think about when we ride these bikes again.
