I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise. At the end I said, “Son, remember: Be slow and steady (鎮定的), and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise ”
Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway ”
I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”
“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (堅忍不拔), by pushing on steadily.”
Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.”

Have you ever thought about how people in the past communicated and did things without mobile phones
Before phones, if you wanted to keep in touch with someone far away, you needed to post a letter to him or her. When my mum was in primary school, she used to do this with her “pen friend”. My mum would write to her pen friend every few months, and then, after a little while, her pen friend would write back.
Later, email became a common thing. Sending letters in the post office felt so slow to people. It became known as “snail mail”!
What if you were at an airport in the time before mobile phones My dad said that in the 1970s there used to be message boards at some airports. If you needed to leave the airport and wanted to leave a message for a friend, you could write him or her a message and stick it on the message board. Then, your friend could go to check the board later and see what you wrote to him or her!

D
He was the only gray cub (狼崽) of the she-wolf. The other cubs had red in their hair. He was gray like his father. He was the strongest cub. He showed more anger than his brothers and sisters. He made more noises.
He was a carnivorous animal. He came of a breed of meat-killers and meat-eaters. His father and mother lived wholly upon meat. In his first months of life, he lived on mother’s milk, which was transformed directly from meat. And now, at a month old, when his eyes had been open for but a week, he was beginning himself to eat meat.
There came a time when there was no meat. For many days the cubs did not eat. They were too weak and tired to play. One-Eye, the cub’s father, was killed in the fight over food. Even the she-wolf left the cave to find meat, but there was nothing. One by one, the cubs died. Only the she-wolf and the gray cub were left.
One day, the gray cub ran out of the cave to hunt for his own food. He met a weasel (黃鼠狼) of his size. The rat-like animal ran at him and bit his throat. He was nearly dead when the she-wolf arrived just in time to kill and eat it.
The gray cub was not good at hunting yet, and still needed food from his mother. One day, the she-wolf brought him a lynx (猞猁) kitten. While eating, he heard great noise. The kitten’s mother had followed the she-wolf here. The she-wolf and the she-lynx started to fight, and they would fight to the death. The bite was enough to give the she-wolf the chance she needed. The lynx was dead, but the she-wolf was badly hurt. For a week, she did not move. The gray cub had to find food for both of them.
Without his mother to take care of him, he learnt what life was about. Without meat there was no life. Animals had to eat other animals to survive. The law was: EAT OR BE EATEN.
(—Taken from White Fang)

Now there are plenty of toothpaste choices: lots of colours and tastes to choose from, and some kinds of toothpaste are made just for children. When you’re choosing a kind of toothpaste, make sure it has fluoride (氟化物). 60 When you brush your teeth, you don’t need a lot of toothpaste: just press out a bit.

Today they’re made of soft plastic and are much easier to use! E. To avoid toothache, they had their teeth pulled out. F. The use of a toothbrush to keep tartar (牙垢) down is very helpful.

Have you ever experienced hui nan tian, or lasting humid (潮濕的) weather Hui nan tian is a special weather phenomenon (現象) in southern China. It normally appears in spring when temperatures begin to warm up and humidity quickly increases. Before it arrives, there have usually been a few cold days, with a temperature below 12℃. As the cold air goes away, warmer air quickly comes and the temperature rises, creating a lot of water vapor. Small water droplets can be seen on windows and walls.
During hui nan tian, the humid weather makes it easy for bacteria (細菌) to grow. Food goes bad easily, clothes stay wet, and sofas can get moldy. Electrical equipment like televisions may break down when they get wet inside, which can be dangerous for people when turning them on. It can also make people feel tired and sick. Catching a cold is common during this time.
To cut down on the trouble caused by the lasting humid weather, scientists suggest that people in the south should close their windows in the morning and evening, especially those facing south and southeast. At the same time, they should use an air conditioner to dry the room instead of mopping floors. It’s also useful to put newspapers on the floor, on tables, and at the door to take in water and wet air.
61．Where does hui nan tian usually appear
62．What can be seen on windows and walls
63．Why is it easy for bacteria to grow during hui nan tian
64．How may people feel during hui nan tian
65．What does scientists advise people influenced by hui nan tian to do in the morning and evening

Hi, everyone. I’m a student in Grade 9. I am an organized person and I can plan all my things well. However, I am not very good at sports, especially running. When I run, I always fall behind my classmates.
Last month, I went to my father for help. He told me that practice makes perfect and whenever he has time, he helps me practise running. Now I have made a little progress and I can run a little faster than before.
I am very thankful to my father. He always encourages me to achieve a balance between schoolwork and hobbies. With his help and support, I can make myself a better student.
Thank you!
