I'm Leo. There is an artist in my family. She is Lisa. Lisa likes drawing a lot. Here are her three drawings (图画).

    There is an animal in the first drawing. It has two big eyes, a big mouth and two small ears. It has long arms and long legs. It is black and white. There are some apples in its hands. It looks very happy. What is it? I don't know, but Lisa says it is a panda.

    There is a woman in the second drawing. She is thin. She has straight blonde hair, a small mouth, a big nose and two big eyes. She looks angry (生气的). Who is she? Lisa says she is our mom. But Mom has curly blonde hair, small eyes and a small nose.

    There is an animal in the third drawing, too. Its head is an apple. Its hair and tail (尾巴) are leaves (树叶). It has a long mouth, and it is a banana. Its four legs are carrots. What is it? Lisa says it i s a horse (马), but it doesn't look like a horse.

    Lisa is really a great artist, isn't she?

From this autumn, primary and middle schools have labor education(劳动教育). 

Duan Jiayang is a 12-year-old student in Yinchuan. One of the subjects in his school is welcome. It is the life skill(生活技能) class. He learns to plant fruit and vegetables in class. He says, "It's not easy. "

In China, many parents do everything for their children. Lots of students don't have life skills. Because of this, Duan's school gives the class. "We want students to really enjoy life by taking the class. We hope students can know it's not easy to get food. And we also want students to thank their parents, "a teacher says.

At the same time, in another middle school in Yinchuan, students learn how to make steamed buns(馒头) in class. A girl named Lian Yan says, "I really love our life skill class. It's my favourite class, "

"Children often just study but don't want to do housework(家务) at home, "says a mother. "The life skill class makes it interesting And the class can even make it become students'hobby or life skill, "she says.

My Best Friend And I

The summer holiday is coming. Ben will have a trip to Beijing with his two {#blank#}1{#/blank#}this weekend. His dad will also go and have a meeting. This is a great journey for Ben and he is very {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. Ben knows little about taking a plane. It is his first time to take a plane. However, Ben's father often goes to other places by plane. 

In the morning, they arrive at the airport early. It is very {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Ben's dad tells Ben what to do. They sit close and wait there for a few minutes. It will take them about four hours to get to Beijing. A few days ago, they {#blank#}4{#/blank#} a hotel far from the Summer Palace because all the other hotels were full (满的) and they had no {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. Ben is really looking forward to the trip. 

The World Health Organization (世卫组织) says air pollution makes seven million people lose their lives around the world each year. Even if (即使) polluted air does not kill people, it can make them very ill. 

However, breathing dirty air does more than hurt people's body. It can also affect (影响) their brain and their ability (能力) to think. 

A new study shows that air pollution can cause (引起) a"huge" reduction (降低) in our intel- ligence (智商). The researchers (研究者) reported that long- term exposure (暴露) to air pollution can affect a person's men tal abilities (智力的) in two areas: language (语言) and math. Xi Chen, the researcher of the Yale School of Public Health led the study. He and his team found that breathing pol- luted air can reduce a person's education (教育) level by about one year. 

Chen said that the affect usually is worse for those over 64 years of age, for men and for those with little or no education. "The older persons—— they are more affected. And we find, quite interestingly men are more affected than women. And people working outdoors are more affected than people working indoors. "

The researchers found that the influence of pollution on language ability is even more serious (严重) as people age, especially among men and the less educated. Why are a person's language skills more affected than math? There's an important part in our brain: white matter (脑及脊髓的白质). 

White matter is more connected (连接) with a person's language skills. Studies have shown that air pollution has a great affect on the white matter in the brain. 

Chen said that air pollution did affect the math skills just not as much as their language skills.
