On the evening of September 26, 2019, the streets of Geneva in Switzerland went dark. This usually happens when there is a problem with the electricity, but this time the lights were turned off to allow people to go outside and look at the stars. This is often impossible in a city because of light population.
Light pollution is when light from streetlights or buildings makes the night less dark. There are many reasons why this is a problem. Animals sleep less because they think it is still daytime. Birds that fly to warmer countries in the autumn need to see the moon and stars to find their way, but light pollution makes this difficult. Insects and birds in cities often fly towards lights at night, knock into buildings and die.
Light pollution is also bad for us. It can stop us sleeping and give us headaches. Also, we don’t see the same sky that people in the past did. This means we almost never see one of the greatest scenes in the world: the millions of stars. Hundreds of thousands of people have never seen it in their lives.
However, it is not difficult to do a few things to reduce (减轻) light pollution: we can all turn lights off when we don’t need them and we can cover our windows. If there is less light pollution, we will once again be able to enjoy the beauty of the night sky.

Have your parents ever helped you with schoolwork Do you think they are giving you too much help
Nearly 90% Chinese parents said that they had helped their kids too much in school, according to a recent survey of 1,504 parents done by China Youth Daily. Meanwhile, 70% parents agreed that overparenting (过度照顾) could lead to a loss of their children’s independence.
Children, on the other hand, want to do things by themselves.
“Doing things ourselves gives us a strong sense of achievement,” said Liu Jiawei, 13, from Jilin. “One day we will leave our parents. So it’s better to develop skills and live independently as early as possible.”
Some, however, think parents have good reasons to help.
Jiang Qi, 12, is from Beijing He said that his parents would sometimes help him by making PowerPoint presentations and creating handmade works.
“Our teachers have very high expectations for us,” Jiang said. “If my parents don’t help me while other students still get help from their parents. I’m afraid I’ll fall behind them.”

I had two pets in my house, a dog named Sam and a cat named Katty. They loved each other so much that they were always together. When I played with one, the other joined in. If Sam barked at something, Katty ran to see what it was. When I took either one out of the house, the other was always waiting by the door when we returned. That was the way it was for years.
But one day, without any warning, Sam died of a heart attack （心脏病突发） at the animal hospital and I had to walk back to our house alone. This time, there was no Sam for Katty to greet and no way for me to explain why she would never see her friend again.
In the days that followed, Katty seemed heartbroken. She could not tell me in words how she felt, but I could see the pain and disappointment in her eyes whenever anyone opened the front door and the hope whenever she heard a dog bark.
As the weeks went by, the cat seemed to feel much better. One day as I walked into our living room, I happened to have a look at the floor next to our sofa where we had a statue （塑像） of Sam that we had bought a few years before. Lying next to it, one arm around the statue's neck, was Katty, happily sleeping with her best friend.
