    According to a new survey, students' safety has become a big problem. Nearly 50% of the students say they are worried about robbery on the way to and from school. Now in many big cities in China, some schools have taught an unusual lesson: self-protection. Students like this lesson because there are no exams or boring classes. And they can learn how to save lives and know how to stop danger before it really happens.

    Chen Haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No. 25 Middle School, gives young students advice on how to deal with danger.

    If you are robbed. Keep calm. If you can not cry for help or run away, give the robber your money. Try to remember what the robber looks like and tell the police later.

    If you are in a traffic accident.

    If a car hits you, you should remember the car number. If it is a bicycle, try to call your parents before you let the rider go. This is because you don't know how seriously you are hurt.

    If it is raining hard and there is lightning.

    Don't stay in high places and stay away from trees.

    When there is fire.

    Get away as fast as you can. Put wet things on your body and try to find an exit. Do not take the lift.

    If someone is drowning(溺水).

    If you can't swim, don't get into the water. Cry out for help.

Have you ever heard of the term "children of the stars"? It's a special name for children with autism (自闭症). April 2 is World Autism Awareness Day. It was started by the United Nations to help people know more about autism and offer better care and support to those who have it.

Autism affects how a person grows and learns. It usually starts to show in the first three years of life. The official name for this condition is "autism spectrum disorder (自闭症谱系障碍)."

Doctors use a handbook called DSM-5 to diagnose (诊断) autism. It talks about two main autism signs: problems with talking and being with others and doing the same things over and over again.

"When I talk to my daughter or ask her to do something, she won't pay attention to me," said MengLingdi. Her daughter was diagnosed with autism at the age of 2. "She doesn't make as much eye contact with people as other kids do."

Children with autism also feel physical pain. "Many of them have epilepsy (癫痫) because their brain activity is different from that of other kids," said Sun Zhongkai at Beijing Stars and RainEducation Institute for Autism (Stars and Rain).

We don't know exactly what causes autism. But scientists think it might be a mix of things like how we grow, our genes (基因), and our environment. If a family has a child with autism, the chance of their other children having autism is about 10 times higher than usual.

Scientists are planning the 2030 trip to Mars. It will take astronauts twelve months on the way and eighteen months living on the Red Planet. As well as building a spaceship and creating space stations, scientists must answer another question: what are the astronauts going to eat while they are away?

In 1961, Yuri Gagarin, the first person in space, ate food in tubes (软管). The next astronauts from the US had dried food mixed with water. Today, astronauts take ready-made meals with them. However, the meals will last for only about two years.

Maya Cooper, a researcher from the US, thinks she might have the answer. She studies how to grow plants in some special liquid (液体). And they grow surprisingly well. Maya's idea is for the astronauts to have a greenhouse on Mars. In the greenhouse, they can grow some kinds of plants. They could then prepare their meals with these and other food from the earth. This will help them get enough nutrients (营养物) to stay healthy. In this way, astronauts will be able to live on fruits and vegetables without meat products for the long trip.

Maya also works on menus for the astronauts. She has suggested more than a hundred different dishes, including egg soup and tomato salad. There is even pizza and chips on the menu so that the astronauts won't miss home too much. It is very important to make the Mars trip a success because the astronauts will do some valuable research on Mars. However, people need to solve food problem firstly.

The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms (节气). They mark the changing seasons and agricultural cycles (农业周期). Among the 24 solar terms, Xiaoman, the eighth solar term, falls around May 20th or 21st each year.

The name "Xiaoman" means "little full" in Chinese, showing the fact that the foods in the field are beginning to be full, but they are not yet ripe. It's a time when farmers can watch their fields turn golden under the warm spring sun. They hope to have a good harvest (丰收) soon in autumn.

During Xiaoman, the weather gradually changes from spring to summer. The days become longer and hotter, and the rainfall increases, providing the necessary water for food growth. This period is important for farmers, as it can influence the quality of their harvest.

A special custom related with Xiaoman is silkworm raising (养蚕) . Silkworm raising is an important way to make a living for people who live in south of the Yangtze River, especially in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. The ancient Chinese believed that Xiaoman is the birthday of the god of the silkworm. Silkworms need to be taken good care of at this time of the year with the fresh mulberry (桑 葚) leaves. It's also regarded as the best time to cook cocoons (茧) and produce silk. Famous Chinese poets such as Li Bai and Du Fu from the Tang Dynasty (618-907), and Su Shi from the Song Dynasty (960-1279) all wrote poems that described the silkworm raising activities at that time, such as silk reeling.

Today, it's popular for Chinese children to raise white silkworms in a paper box, covered with green fresh mulberry leaves. For them, raising silkworms is not a way to make a living, but to see the magic of nature. It's exciting to carefully watch the silkwormsgrow bigger and bigger, and finally become white cocoons.
