Long long ago, there was
a spider. She found a beautiful farm. She liked the farm and decided to live there
forever.
One day, the
spider caught a little bug. When the spider ate it, the bug said, “If you let me
go, I will tell you an important thing. The thing will save your life.” The spider
stopped and listened.
The little bug
said, “You'd better get out of the farm. The harvest is coming! If you stay here,
you will be killed by the farmer's machine.”
But the spider
didn't listen to the bug and ate it for lunch. The next day when she was sleeping,
the farmer came to have a harvest. The spider was killed by the machine.
International Museum Day is coming! Here are some special museums that you must see.
| Sweet Museum, Russia Do you love candy? Don't miss the sweet world in Russia. You can find different kinds of sweet food here. But they are just models! Look, how big the lollipops (棒棒糖) are! People can ride on them. Want to taste the ice cream? Be careful—the ice-cream balls are lights! |
| Museum of Failure, Sweden There are more than 100 failed products in the museum. Some of them come from the world's most successful companies, like the Newton computer from Apple. Maybe success stories are similar and kind of boring, but we can find interesting stories in failures and learn something from them. |
| Cancun Underwater Museum, Mexico It is a secret garden under the sea. You can either dive (潜水) or take a glass boat into it. Down here, sea animals live around 400 sculptures (石膏像). Each sculpture tells a story and it's made of special material, which is good for the sea life. |
| Museum of Broken Relationships, Croatia Some relationships end—with lovers, with dreams and with cities. This special museum has a collection of objects from people all over the world who want to lock their memories. Each of the objects shares a story of their past relationship. |
Have you ever thought about what our food will be in the future?
{#blank#}1{#/blank#}
More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}Instead, people will eat more fruit and vegetables. In this way, people may be healthier.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#}Only about 29%of the Earth's area is land and the rest is sea, so some think maybe we can get more food from the sea.
Besides, though rice supports more than half the world's population, it needs a lot of water to grow. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Therefore, it might be impossible to grow rice in the future. Some farmers are experimenting with new crops. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}The soybean (黄豆) makes a good substitute (替代品) for rice and meat.
A. Maybe no one will eat it every day. B. Scientists predict (预测) the climate will get drier during the next century. C. Scientists are always trying out new ways of growing food. D. Farmers like to grow beans because they don't need much water, and beans also improve the quality of the soil. E. As the population is growing fast, there must be changes in our food. |
