For most of people in the west,Valentine's Day(情人节) ends on February 15,but here in Japan it's not quite over until March 15.March 14—exactly one month after Valentine's Day—is White Day in Japan.
To really understand what White Day is all about,you have to understand what Valentine's Day in Japan is like. Japanese Valentine's Day is all about men getting presents. Japanese women are usually too shy to show their love,though it might not be true today. Valentine's Day is a great chance to let women show their feelings. Men should return gifts to women on White Day.
On both days,chocolate is the gift of choice. More often,the colour of the chocolate is white because of the name of the day. You can also buy flowers,candy,or cookies.
Does it sound good to you? Don't get too excited when you get chocolate from Japanese girls! They give chocolate not only to their loved ones,but also to men such as bosses (老板) and male(男性的) friends.
The Japanese first celebrated White Day in 1978.Now it is also celebrated in South Korea and Taiwan,China.
Face the Stress
Have you had a headache during a test? Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can't sleep at night? If so, then you know what stress is. Stress is what you feel when you are worried about something. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}You may feel angry, sad, scared, or afraid—all of which give you a stomachache or a headache.
{#blank#}2{#/blank#}Some kinds of stress are beneficial and others are not. Good stress might happen when you're called to answer questions in class or when you have to give a speech. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} For example, you may do a better job in your test if the stress pushes you to prepare better before the test.
On the other hand, bad stress can happen if the stress lasts too long. You may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is sick, if you're having problems at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy every day. That kind of stress isn't going to help you. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}
{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Make sure you keep yourself in mind: Sleep, exercise, leisure, and food. If you get enough sleep and eat healthily, and if you exercise and leave and leave time for fun, you'll probably feel less stressed.
A. This worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. B. However, there are different kinds of stress. C. This kind of stress can help you to get things better done. D. And it can actually make you sick. E. The best way to face the stress is to have a balanced life. |
Chicago is the third most populous(人口众多的) city in the US, with a population of about 2,700,000. Its other famous name is "The Windy City". It is for a good reason. The city lies right next to Lake Michigan and heavy winds blow through the city.
Chicago is famous for its art and culture (文化). In order to know the art and culture, you must pay a visit to the Art College of Chicago. It is not only a school, but also a world- class art museum. If you don't want to visit a museum, you can take some special photos. Then your best choice is to take photos at the Cloud Gate. Chicago has lots of fun things to do. If you enjoy heights, visit the famous Willis Tower! You can go up to the top of it and walk onto a glass box. You'll be standing over the city, but don't worry— It's completely safe. Doesn't Chicago sound like a fun city?
