John and Tina come from different countries. They are interested in Chinese food. They usually eat Chinese food in restaurants and often talk about it.

It's Saturday today and it's sunny. John asks Tina to have dinner at Ms. Brown's House. It's the first time that Tina goes there for dinner.

    "Hi, John. Are there different kinds of food at Ms. Brown's House?" Tina asks.

"Of course. There're all kinds of noodles  such as chicken and cabbage noodles, mutton and potato noodles, tomato and egg noodles and beef and carrot noodles," John says.

    "Sounds great! I like tomato and egg noodles very much," said Tina.

"Me, too. There are also delicious dumplings and specials. After dinner, we can have ice- cream and fruit. They are on sale."

    "Ice-cream? I know a new kind of ice-cream. It is delicious. And you can keep it for an hour."

    "Great! But there isn't any at Ms. Brown's House."

    "I know where to buy it. Let's go after dinner."

    "OK."

    The following are the messages from Mike's moments (朋友圈) on WeChat during the trip to Beijing.

    Today is July 5, my birthday, the first day of our trip. It's 2:30 p. m. I'm riding a bike with my parents and my little brother Bob in Beihai Park. We are singing, listening to birds, and having a lot of fun.

    Today is July 6. It's the second day of our trip. We plan to visit the Great Wall. There area lot of people along the way. I feel a little tired, but I'm happy! While we are climbing the mountain, I talk about my future (将来的) job with my parents. What do I want to be? Ha! Maybe a teacher or a singer.

    My parents are visiting their old friend, a famous writer, at her place. I am having lunch with Bob and watching a show in Deyunshe. The food isn't so delicious but the show ... Well, it's so humorous and interesting. I really like it.

    It is the fourth day of our trip. We're going back home at 6:00 p. m. It's 10:00 a m. now. We are visiting the famous Chocolate Factory and making chocolate by ourselves happily. We are really having a great time here! Sweet Kiwi! I love you!

Do you know Mark Elliot Zuckerberg? He is the CEO of Facebook. Let's see what his life is like. 

After waking up at 8 am，Zuckerberg turns to his phone to check messages. Then he goes to the gym and does some exercise. Sometimes，Zuckerberg runs outside. His favorite running partner is his pet dog，he walks the dog. 

After exercising，Zuckerberg always takes a shower and gets ready for the day. He never wastes time on small things. Being a successful businessman，he likes to keep the rest of his life simple. He eats whatever he likes to eat. When it comes to clothes he is always in jeans，and a pair of sneakers （运动鞋） . He enjoys walking to places that is not far away. 

Most people work about 40 hours a week，but it is usual for Zuckerberg to work 50﹣60 hours. Although he spends a lot of time in the office，Zuckerberg is also very much a family man. After marrying the Chinese﹣American Priscilla Chanis also big on taking nice vacations（假期）with his family. And he tries to read a new book every two weeks. He is trying to find a good balance （平衡）between work and life. 

I'm Tom. Look! This is my schoolbag. And this is a pencil box. Is it purple? No, it's orange. It's my pencil box. What's in the pencil box? A ruler is in the pencil box. It is my ruler. The ruler is blue and red.

That is a pencil. It is black and white. It is not my pencil. Look! That girl is Lucy. It is her pencil. That boy is Tim. I find his green pen in my pencil box. His telephone number is 789-6677.

Mother's Day is coming. It is a time to let your mother know she's special to you. Let's see the history of Mother's Day in different countries.

Long, long ago, in Greece, people celebrated a mid­March day. On that day they showed admiration to Rhea. Rhea was the Mother of the Gods.

Later, English people had their own "Mothering Sunday". It was the 4th Sunday of Lent(四月斋)before the Easter Eve. People usually bought a fruit cake as a gift to Mom. Today English people still celebrate the holiday on the 4th Sunday of Lent.

In America, Mother's Day is a national holiday today. People first celebrated it in 1908 in just one state in the United States. It was all because of Anna M. Jarvis's hard work. She wrote so many letters to important people of that time because she wanted to have a day to show love and admiration to mothers. In 1914，the American President Woodrow Wilson made the second Sunday in May Mother's Day.

A myth(荒诞的说法) is something that is not right, but many people believe. There are a lot of myths about the human brain (大脑).

One of the biggest myths is that we only use 10 percent of our brains. The next part of the myth is that if we can learn to use the rest of our brains, then we' ll be much smarter. People say this all the time, but it's absolutely not true! The truth is that although we don't know everything about the human brain, we know that each part of plays an important function. Modern scientists think the"10 percent myth" silly(愚蠢的).

The other most popular myth is about being" right brained" or" left brained". According to this myth, people who use the right side of their brains are more artistic and creative. People who use the left side of their brains are better at math and science. This is as popular as the 10 percent myth, and it's also wrong. In 2013, a study at an American university examined the right brain and left brain myth. According to the study, we use both sides of our brains equally(相等地).

It's true that we use different parts of our brains for different things. We use our left side for language more, and our right side when we need to pay attention. But there is no fact that creative people use the right side more, or that scientific people use the left side more.

We' ve talked about myth, so let's look at a few interesting facts about the brain. First of all, the brain feels no pain. Second, about 75 percent of the brain is made of water. It's also the fattest organ in your body. Here's another interesting fact about the brain. Around the time you turn 18 years old, it stops growing.
