Many parents like twins(双胞胎) a lot. For many years, people think that twins have a secret language. A lot of parents of twins say that their children have a secret way of talking to each other by using some words they don't understand. "The twin language" was very special in people's minds for a long time. However, a study shows that twins hardly have secret languages. So why do people think that?

When babies are learning to speak, they often make sounds and their parents don't understand them. For example, a child may call a bottle "baba". Since twins are learning the language at the same time, they often make the same mistakes. So, if one of the twins calls a bottle"baba", the other possibly starts to do the same. Soon, the twins are using the same inaccurate word. Parents may think of this as a secret language. In fact, the twins are learning new words like any other child.

A study shows that true secret languages don't happen very often. It happens because babies spend a lot of time alone and don't have many people talking around them.

Some studies show that it often takes longer for twins to begin speaking than for non-twin children. This could be because parents of twins can be busier than parents with just one baby, so they don't have much time to spend with their twin babies. Because twins understand each other's language mistakes, it may take them longer to learn words right.

As twins get older, like many non-twin children, they may make secret words for things they don't want their parents to understand!

Once upon a time, there lived a wise man. Everyone loved him. His son, however, was very lazy and did nothing all day.

The wise man was worried about his son's future. One day, he said to his son, "I want you to go to find some treasure(财宝). I have drawn a map to guide you." Then he handed his son a bag. Inside the bag were clothes, some food, a little money and the map.

The son set. Out on his. Long journey the next day. He had to travel across forests, rivers and mountains. Along the way, he met a-lot of people. Some helped him with food, and some with a place to live. He also met robbers(强盗) who tried to rob him but failed. He saw changing landscapes(风景) and experienced different kinds of weather.

Finally, after a long year, he reached the place of treasure. He spent two days looking and digging for the treasure, but found nothing.

Feeling sad, he headed back to his home. On his way back, he experienced the same changing landscapes and seasons. Sometimes, he would stop to enjoy the beauty of nature. He also learned to hunt and make meals. He had to fix(修补) his own clothes and the tent himself. He was now able to tell time by the sun and protect(保护) himself from wild animals. He met the same people who had helped him earlier. This time, he stayed and helped them in order to repay them.

When he reached home, he said sorry to his father for not finding the treasure.

"There wasn't any treasure in the very first place, my son," the father answered with a smile. "But I think you have found your life's true meaning."

When the first person looked up at the sky, the imagination of the space began. In China, there are many stories about the exploration of space. 

Thousands of years ago, there was a lady named Chang'e who flew to the Moon and lived there. It's a story just living in myths(神话). In the Ming Dynasty, a man named Wan Hu used the machine which was made of a chair, some fireworks and a kite as a rocket. He wanted to go into the space but failed. He was considered as the first human to try to explore the space. 

In 2003, when Shenzhou V successfully set off, Yang Liwei's words" ask for instructions to go to the war" brought tears(眼泪) to our eyes. Carrying the flying dream of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, the first" space visitor" of China, excellently completed his task. It started the space age for the Chinese. In 2008, Zhai Zhigang, Liu Boming and Jing Haipeng returned to space by Shenzhou VII. Zhai achieved the success of the first Chinese spacewalk. "I am out of the capsule(太空舱), I feel good, " he told the world proudly. 

In the following years, China kept on making its way to explore more about the space. Especially in the recent two years, China has launched (发射) Shenzhou XIII and Shenzhou XIV. Six astronauts have been sent into the space. 

From 2003 to 2022, China's manned space- flight has gone through about twenty years of hard, but successful journey. With the take- off again and again, Chinese people go farther and farther in space, but our dream is getting closer and closer. 

In the near future, Chinese people will be sent to the Moon and land on it.

A new match-tiles-style game(消除类游戏) called "Yang Le Ge Yang" or "Sheep A Sheep"was popular on WeChat's mini program for several months last year. Developed by Beijing Jianyou Technology, the game had 2. 6 billion views on Weibo under its hashtag(话题标签) and related short videos were viewed widely. 

The game features sheep characters and challenging levels, with only 0. 1% of players able to pass all levels according to the developers. Many users struggle with the second level, which is particularly difficult. The game also provides customization(定制化) choices for players who successfully complete matches by allowing them to change their sheep skins, along with interesting background music. 

By dividing game players into different groups according to their provinces, "Yang Le Ge Yang" creates a strong sense of belonging and encourages players to win and bring honor to their provinces. What's more, game tools are available to those who share the game on social media, which has helped to make it more popular. The game's "Hard Fun" style has made it a hit among players looking for a challenge, and advertising opportunities provide potential income (潜在的收入) for the company behind the game. Users must watch in-app ads to get more powerful tools to overcome difficulties in the matching process. 

However, will "Yang Le Ge Yang" be popular for much longer or will it be replaced and forgotten? Similar, more trendy games are likely to follow soon, as often happens with such small and easy-to-make games.
