Adam and his parents buy things in different ways. Adam likes shopping on the Internet on weekends. http: /club. 360 buy. com is his favourite website(网站). He often buys things such as mobile phones(手机)and cameras(照相机)on it He spends about two hundred yuan buying things on it each month. It often takes him three days to get his products.

    But Adam's parents never shop on the Internet. They can't see the real products (产品)and they often worry. Adam's mother likes buying clothes but she can't try them on(试穿) if she buys the clothes on the Internet. So she often goes shopping with her husband(丈夫). There are some shops near their home, so Adam's parents often go there to shop.

Hi, everyone! My name is Sheldon Cooper. I'm from America. I'm twelve years old, but I'm a middle school student. I like science very much. 

My father is a PE teacher. He teaches students to play football in my school. My mother is a beautiful woman with blue eyes. I am like her. My eyes are blue too. Missy is my aunt. She is a nice woman. Her eyes are brown. My brother's name is George. He likes to play football. He is fifteen years old, but we are in the same class. George isn't happy about it. 

This is my family. Meet my family on Young Sheldon. 

Ben and Tim are good friends. They were very active before. They played games together outdoors a lot. But now Tim is not active any more. He has some bad habits. He watches too much TV and plays too many computer games. Ben worries about him.

Ben sends his friend a poem:

You can be a couch potato and watch TV all day.

But don't do that. There is another way!

Move your body, get out and have fun.

Fresh air, a bike ride, playing in the sun!

Tim gets home from school. There is a letter at his front door. It's Ben's poem! He reads the poem and he laughs. He writes a poem back to his friend:

Your poem is funny,

But I feel really lucky.

With a true friend on my side,

My world will be open wide.

Let's meet tomorrow at six o' clock,

And we can go for a good walk.

Three hours, thirty-five minutes and thirty seconds. It took Belachew Girma the 1 to set a world record (纪录). This man from Ethiopia didn't set a world record for running or jumping. He set the world record for laughing. That's 2 ! Belachew Girma laughed for more than 3 hours without (没有) 3 !

However, Belachew Girma didn't always like to laugh. In fact, he wasn't very happy in the past. After his wife (妻子) died, Belachew Girma thought he would 4 laugh again. Then, someone taught him how to laugh. Belachew Girma started to know: laughing made him feel good. So he wanted to laugh all the time.

Belachew Girma practiced laughing night and day. The only time he didn't practice laughing was when he was 5 . Someone told Belachew Girma about a laughter 6 and he decided to take part in it. He went on practicing his laughing 7 . After laughing for over 3 hours, Belachew Girma 8 the competition. He 9 a world record holder (持有人)! He didn't have time to be sad or to worry 10 he was always laughing.

Belachew Girma wanted to help 11 by laughing. He travelled around the world to 12 with people about his experience (经验). To Belachew himself, laughing saved his 13 . Today, he finds poor kids and teaches them to laugh. When kids laugh, it 14 their sadness. The laughing makes them feel much happier and 15 . It helps make their lives better.

Belachew Girma knows: The more he laughs, the more others laugh too. By laughing, he expects to make the world a happier place.
