学科网（北京）股份有限公司Long long ago, there was a beautiful place with thousands of trees. Around those trees was the home of many
lions. Those lions killed other animals and ate them. The bodies of the animals
always made the air bad, and many trees thought the place was not fit to live in
any more.
One day, two trees were talking. The first tree said, “These lions are
polluting our home. We have to save our home from them. Let’s drive them away.”
“Yes,” agreed the other tree.
An old tree was listening to them, He said, “They may be polluting the air. But they are keeping us safe. No
people are brave enough to come into our home.
But his words did not change the idea of the two trees. They finally did that. That evening, the two trees
started shaking very hard. “We will make the lions afraid, so they will leave our home and never come back
again,” the two trees said and laughed.
All the other trees joined them. “Don’t do that,” shouted the old tree. But the other trees did not listen. They
made great noises. “Something horrible is happening. Let’s run away,” all the animals said.
The two trees were happy. “Huh! Now we can enjoy some fresh air,” they said. But they were only happy
for a few days. One day a man came and started cutting down the trees. “Now I don’t need to be afraid of the
lions,” he said to himself. Soon there were other people. “Now all of us will die,” said the old tree. “How
stupid we are. We should listen to this old tree,” the other trees said sadly. A few minutes later, the two trees were
cut down.

The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms(节气). Rain Water starts on
February 18th this year. It shows the increase in rainfall (降雨) and the rise in temperature. With its arrival, trees
and grass turn green again, birds move from south to north. Here are three things you may not know about Rain
Water.
No. 1 Water as valuable as oil
As an old Chinese saying goes, “The rainfall in spring is as valuable as oil.” In northern China, it seldom
rains and it is usually dry in spring. So Rain Water is considered as a key period for the farming when the day gets
warmer and the rainfall increases.
No. 2 Return of cold spell (倒春寒)
More care is needed to deal with a returning cold period in the late spring. The fast increase of wet air can
cause lower temperature and wet weather. People are advised to keep warm and not to take off the thick coats too
early.
No. 3 Nutritious (有营养的) porridge

bowl of nutritious porridge is the best choice for the body. People often eat porridge with a special kind of Chinese

Jack London was a famous writer. He was born on January 12, 1876, in San Francisco, California. His family
was so poor that Jack had to leave school to make money at an early age. As a result, he had little education as a
child. He worked hard in many different jobs---working as a paper boy, a sailor, and a miller. Though he had to
work long hours at these jobs, London spent all his free time on books, especially those travel and adventure books
borrowed from the library. He travelled to Japan and Korea in 1893. These trips made London decide to educate
himself and change his life. He returned to school, quickly completed high school and entered the University of
California. After only one term, however, London gave up his studies and travelled to Alaska in 1897 in search of
gold, but he failed as a gold miner.
Though unsuccessful, the trip to Alaska provided ideas for his career as a writer. Once back in California,
London decided to work as a writer. He bought a typewriter and worked up to fifteen hours a day, changing his
Alaska adventures into short stories and novels.
In 1903, he became famous all over the country after he published the popular novel The Call of the Wild. He
soon became the highest paid writer in the US. During his career, he wrote more than a million dollars. Several of
his novels, including The Call of the Wild (1903), The Sea Wolf (1904), The White Fang (1906), have become
American most famous novels. People can always get encouragement; and ideas about life from his works. To
Build a Fire, for example, tells the story of a man who fought against the extreme cold to live through the Alaska
winter.
Jack London was a great writer in the history of literature. His works have been translated into different
languages and are still popular all over the world. However, he was not a happy man. In poor health, he killed
himself in 1916.

We all wish we could have just one more hour of sleep.
For lucky high school students in England, they’re now going to reset their alarm(闹钟) and get one more
hour of sleep. Instead of starting school at 9 a.m., students will begin their school day at 10 a.m.
This is part of a huge study by Oxford University. The experiment( 实验) will see if later classes can help
them get good marks.
“We know that something funny happens when you’re a teenager, "a sleep researcher Colin Epsie told The
Telegraph. “When you get bad marks, your parents think it is because you're lazy, and everything would be OK if
you could get to sleep earlier. Science is telling us that teenagers need to sleep more in the mornings.”
In 2009, some scientists did other similar experiments. They found that 19% students got better marks in
Maths and Science.
Is one more hour's sleep good for all students' studies? Yet we’ll have to wait until 2018 to find out these
