We can't remember clearly since when we started to take our mobiles to a dinner table． This happens a lot， especially when we eat out． Once a dish comes， instead of lifting our chopsticks， we take out our mobiles and click． Later， we post the photos onto Weibo or Wechat， waiting to be "liked"． Then we check our mobiles from time to time during the meal， to see whether we get "liked" or not． We just cannot leave our mobiles for only a meal．

Does that sound familiar to you？ Do you do that often？ If not， how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you？

A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not so good． Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant． To test this， some researchers did an experiment． Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food． As a result， it showed that the more photos they took，    ． So， why not stop taking photos and just enjoy the food in front of you？

Besides the scientific result， there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals． After posting the photos onto the Internet， one will not be able to control himself and check his mobile many times． "Does everyone like my photos？ I hope a lot of people like them!" It seems that your mobile secretly calls your name all the time， even when you are with real people．

So， next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends， how about not taking photos of food？ Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you． Trust me， it will be a wonderful time．

Q： At recess（课间休息）， I don't know what to do because all my friends are playing games I don' like or don't want to play． So I end up standing by myself at recess doing nothing． What should I do？

                                                                                                           Alex rider，13， Bloomfield，N．J．

A： In fact， recess was my least favorite part of the school day for Grades 1 to 5． I was never really into playing kickball． So， like you， I spent many days at recess standing alone． Take advantage of the extra time you have．I learned that reading a book is the best way to pass time， especially if it is sunny． Books are good for a lonely recess，because they take you out of your world and into another． If reading isn't your thing， then try making new friends． Some other things I would do at recess were chess and paper cutting． Those might be worth trying． Maybe the teacher who is watching over all the kids needs someone to talk to as well． Whatever you want to do， don't let your time go to waste．Johnny Hayes， 15

A： Do you believe in time travel， Alex？Because you just dragged me 40 years into the past． When I was 13， half my friends threw themselves into kickball at recess﹣ which was too vigorous（剧烈的） for me right after lunch． So， like you， I stood around a lot． Then， one day， my teacher， Susie， asked me．"What do you want to do？ I had no answer for her． But suddenly， it came to me： marbles! I asked a few friends， and they were happy to join me． Now， I'm not suggesting you play marbles， only that you consider what you feel like doing and can make you happy． And one last idea： There's no harm in trying games your friends are playing that you think you won't like． You might just surprise yourself． Philip Galanes， adult

On my recent trip to Sydney with my parents，we visited the Wildlife Park．

   The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals and birds．Some are native （当地的） to Australia and can only be found there．There are over 600 animals there，including kangaroos，koalas and crocodiles （鳄鱼）．They are kept in their natural environment．I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo where most of the animals are in cages （笼子）．

   It is a wonderful souvenir （纪念品） of my holiday in Sydney．

   The Wildlife Park has plenty of fresh water and saltwater crocodiles．Some of them are really big and scary （吓人的） with huge teeth!I did not want to get too close to them．

   There was also a bird show．The keepers showed us different species （种类） they had．I saw an old parrot which could"talk"．It made a great impression on me．

Each summer，you hear news that some sports players are sent to hospitals because it is too hot．Our bodies can't be outside in the sun for a long time．So in hot summers，be careful about playing sports outside．

Firstly，to play sports safely in hot weather，you must drink water．Sports drinks are great for athletes，but they have so much sugar that they'll dehydrate（使脱水）you more．However，drinking a few bottles of sports drinks will be good for you．

Secondly，be sure to take enough breaks to let your body rest．If your coach doesn't let you take enough breaks in the heat，don't wait until you feel uncomfortable．Just be honest with your coach when you need breaks．

Thirdly，when you have a break，don't sit in the sun．With the sun beating down on you，you'll only heat up and sweat（冒汗）more．Take a seat under a tree，or even better，go indoors for a little while．Cooling yourself down can help you stay active longer．

Fourthly，remember that the earlier in the day you start your exercise，the cooler it will be．If you can start practice before the sun comes up，you have a few good hours to practise in the cool hours of the morning．Also，the earlier you practise，the earlier you can finish the exercise．If you need more practice time，come back to the field later in the evening，when the sun is setting．

Last but not least，you should watch what you eat．Eat food which is high in water，starch（淀粉）and carbonhydrate（糖类），but be sure to get a good balance in your diet．

As long as you pay attention to the above，playing sports safely in the heat isn't a difficult thing．

A．Sports drinks are good for you with no harm．

B．You need to tell your coach when you feel tired．

C．Sitting under a tree is better than staying indoors．

D．Eating lots of sugar is necessary for sports safely．

You may often hear some myths（传言）about animals．For example，one dog year equals about seven human years，chameleons（变色龙）change color to match their environment…Today，let's talk about birds．It is said that if you touch a baby bird，the parents will completely abandon（抛弃）it．Do you really believe it？

In fact， most birds have a very poor sense of smell， so in most cases are unable to even notice the smell of humans on baby birds． Not only that， but most types of birds aren't so quick to abandon their young when they sense danger． Some types will even do their best to protect their young when they are in danger．

Indeed， in very few known cases， parent birds sometimes abandoned their nests from something touching their young， just because they noticed itby sight， not smell． When this happens， the parent birds usually won't care，other than to be a little more careful than normal．Sometimes，they may temporarily（暂时地）abandon the nest in order to better watch whatever disturbed their nest comes back．

What's more，in most cases，even if the nest is destroyed by wind or something to that effect，you could create a new one and put all the baby birds back in it，and when the parents came back，they wouldn't care their baby birds were in a different nest，so long as you put the new nest near where the old one was so they can find it．

（1）Which of the following is true？ 　　

A．	Birds have a very good sense of smell．
B．	A baby bird will die soon if it is touched by someone．
C．	Whatever disturbed the nest will never come back．
D．	Some birds will protect their babies when they are in danger．

（2）What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to？ 　　

A．	Their nest．
B．	Their baby．
C．	Some birds abandoning their nests．
D．	Something touching their young．

（3）The parent birds 　　if we make a new nest for baby birds to take the place of the old one．

A．	will never come back
B．	will worry about their babies
C．	won't mind
D．	will take their babies away

（4）Which of the following shows the structure（结构）of the passage？ 　　

（①＝Paragraph 1（第一段），②＝Paragraph 2…）

（5）What is the best title of this passage？ 　　

A．	Bird Truth
B．	Baby Birds

Train stations and airports are crowded，babies are crying，and passengers are arguing．The same story also happens during rush hours in big cities every day．When there is a crowd，people lose their tempers（脾气）easily．What makes polite travelers suddenly forget their manners？

One of the causes is a crowded cabin（车厢）．It makes you feel a distance from your sense of self．In other words，you're no longer yourself．

Tiredness also makes travelers lose their self﹣control．Think about all those traffic jams on the way to a train station，the long line waiting to enter the station and the busy phone calls from family，friends and workmates．When travelers finally get on the train，their patience has already run out．

Besides，a lack（缺乏）of sleep gives travelers a temper．If we are forces to get up early，many of us will act much more impatiently．

So，how can we make the world a better place when we're traveling with a big crowd？Try to improve the atmosphere（气氛）．If it's a flight，the air hostess could stand in front of the cabin，saying things like，"How many of you are going home？"or"Raise your hand if you've never been on an airplane before．"

What's more，everyone can be helpful，such as giving the person next to you a smile，offering the seat to a needy person，and saying"It's OK"if someone steps on your feet．

Soup is just one thing that can be eaten for lunch，What you eat for lunch may be different from the lunch of someone who lives in another country．Let's take a look around the world to see what kids are eating for lunch．

Russia

Winters in Russia are very cold．Maybe that's why many Russian children eat soup for lunch．Two of their favourites are cabbage soup and beet soup．

Many Russian soups also include potatoes．Potatoes are an important crop in Russia．They make soups thick，Eating thick soups can help keep people warm and can fill them up，so hunger is no problem!

South Korea

Meals in Korea are made up of many dishes．No matter what else is served，there is always rice．

Kimchi is also always on the table，Kimchi is pickled（腌制的）meat or vegetables．Korean children mix together many dishes and flavors at meals．It's common for their food to be hot and spicy．

Thailand

Lunch in Thailand often includes noodles．There are many ways to serve noodles．One popular dish is made with thin rice noodles，tofu and shrimp．Another favourite way to eat rice noodles is with meat，vegetables and thick gravy．

These years people show all kinds of things on the Internet﹣good food， nice clothes， wonderful vacations and so on． Now showing the number of steps is becoming popular too． Why？

People are finding it important to be in good health． To keep healthy， many people go to work on foot． When they start walking， they open the step counterapp in their phones to record how many steps they walk that day． After a day's walk， some people show the number on WeChat or Weibo． This can make them learn from each other and keep exercising．

"This helps me to exercise much and keep a good habit，"Miss Liu said．"I can also talk about how to keep healthy with my friends on WeChat． We are in the same group to encourage each other to keep exercising．"

Mr． Wu likes to exercise． But in the past he was kind of lazy and didn't want to exercise every day．"After I use the step counter app， everything is different． It's great to exercise with my friends．

Sometimes there are prizes for those who walk more steps．I really like it，"he said．

Walking is a relaxing and useful way to exercise． Both the old and the young like it．

Recording the steps helps people develop a good habit of walking and showing the number can make people more interested in walking． But don't take the number too seriously．

Every living thing on Earth is either a plant or an animal，right？Wrong!Many organisms（有机体）in our world are neither．Some of them float through the air，and some lie hidden in the ground．They do not need sunlight to survive，and if the weather becomes too cold，they can become inactive until conditions improve．

What are these？They are called fungi（菌类），and you see them almost every day．Many kinds of fungi seem disgusting，such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator．But other kinds are not so bad．For example，the yeast that is used to make bread and mushrooms （蘑菇） are both fungi．

What makes fungi different from plants and animals？An animal can move around by itself．Fungi get around too，but they don't have feet，wings，or tails．They have to wait for wind or some other outside force to move them．Plants are different from fungi because they have chlorophyll（叶绿素）．It helps them make food from the energy in sunlight．Fungi do not have chlorophyll．

Some fungi are bad，while others are not．Some fungi cause diseases，such as athlete's foot，which makes feet uncomfortable．Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicies，which have saved many lives．

Fungi clean up more than wounds，though．They are the world's first recyclers．Without fungi，our world would be a mess．Since fungi cannot make their own food as plants do，they must get their food elsewhere．Many fungi get their food from dead plants．They break them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a housecleaning．

Last week I went to Corsica with my friends on vacation．It was my first visit to the island！
