An old father left seventeen camels (骆驼）to his three sons before he died. Some days later, he left this will (遗嘱）to his sons and died.
According, to the will, the eldest son should get half of the seventeen camels, the middle son should be given one-third of the seventeen camels，and the youngest (最年轻的）son should be given one-ninth of the seventeen camels.
However, it is not possible to divide seventeen into half or that seventeen divided by three or by nine. The three sons started to fight with each other. So the three sons decided to go to an old man.
The old man heard the thing. He brought one camel of his own and added it to the seventeen. Then the total number was eighteen.

Numbers always play an important part in China. People in China associate good things with lucky numbers. So lucky numbers came into being on their own way. Chinese people always pay attention to the lucky numbers in the daily life, such as choosing (选择)telephone numbers, choosing a date for important parties and choosing a good number for their cars. They think lucky numbers can bring them good luck. In China, people think even (偶数的）numbers are good but odd (奇数的）ones are not, so they often give others presents in even numbers. The number 8 is regarded as a very good number in China because when you read it in Chinese, it sounds like the word“Fa”，meaning success and money. So people like it very much.
What’s more, some people prefer to spend much money on a telephone number with 8 in it. They also like their homes on the eighth floor of buildings. Some numbers in themselves are neither lucky nor unlucky, but when going together with other numbers they will have some good meanings (意义）.The number 1 sounds like “yao”， meaning “want”. It’s very famous when going together with 6 and 8. For example, 188, 166 and 168, are very famous by meaning “making a good fortune”or“going on well”.

Most great inventors often meet with many difficulties in their work before they become successful.
George Stephenson, a famous British inventor, made the first train in 1825, using a steam engine (蒸汽机).When he was making the train，he met with a lot of difficulties. Many people said that it would kill animals and the engine would catch fire to their houses. George Stephenson told the people that the train could go on small rails, and it could pull carriages full of things and passengers and there was no great danger to them. It was difficult for him to make them believe (相信). However， after some time, he was able to do it, and the first train that was driven by Stephenson himself showed what he had said. On the train there was a new steam engine. It was invented by him, and it was a complete success. The first day when the train ran on the rails, people along the way heard the noise and saw it running quickly to them. They ran quickly back home and closed their doors. They didn’t come out until it went away.

Many great inventions changed the way we live. The first great invention was the one that is still very important today — the wheel.
There were few inventions that had as much influence as the wheel for many years. In the early 1800s, the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People began to work to make life better.
In the 19th century, many great inventions such as the camera, the light and the telephone came into being.
The 20th century saw more great inventions — movies with sound in 1910, the computer in 1946, and jet planes (喷气式飞机）in the 1930s. Nylon came out in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wore.
By this time human beings had a strong wish to explore (探索）again. The world was known to human beings but the stars were not. Human beings began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries, including China and Japan, have made their steps into space.
In 1969 human beings took their biggest step from the Earth. An American first walked on the Moon. That was just a beginning. New inventions will some day allow us to do things we have never thought.

My experience of the educational exchange was made interesting both by lectures given by Asian professors and through interacting (互动）with students coming from different countries.
Living in Japan made me realize that getting into a completely different culture is really challenging. For the first time, I was trying to find the right way to interact with them. For example, there are a lot of social (社会的）rules in Japan. Sometimes people have to follow them. One has to find the balance (平衡）between one’s need to become a “normal” part of society and one’s difference.
I have learnt a lot from the educational exchange. I would encourage all students to go through such an experience because it can provide one with a chance to learn the language of another country. And it will allow you not only to interact with local people but also to know better how social rules are different from yours. To join an artistic, cultural or a sports club is-a great way to meet friends and learn more about the country.

The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home but English. It was because they were living in an English-speaking country then. Now the Vieira children grow up, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their friends. But they cannot talk with them. Unluckily, this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own culture and mother language behind. It’s wrong because it’s better to know more than one language.
If you can speak more than one language, you can talk directly (直接地）with more people around the world. People who know only one language must depend on others to help them talk with people in other countries.
What’s more, speaking a second language also helps people to experience other cultures better. If you know a second language, you may know some jokes in other countries. So, knowing more than one language helps you know more about other cultures.
It’s very sad that many people don’t try to learn another language. It’s even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language.

Do you know what the skin (皮肤) is Skin is the name for the special things on our bodies. It comes in colors such as black, brown, white, yellow and red. However, the color of the skin is not important. All skin has one important job — to keep heat (热) inside our bodies. With this, your skin will be able to help keep you and your body safe for a long time.
Skin has two parts. The first part we can see is called the epidermis (表皮). It is very thin and it is kind of dead skin. The body makes the epidermis all the time. People lose about 20kg of dead skin in their lives.
The inside part of skin is called the dermis (真皮).The skin in this part is living. The dermis is very important because it makes new skin for the epidermis. At the same time, the dermis has lots of small glands (腺体). These glands are important to us because they can make some useful things to help to keep our skin soft. Also, the dermis is important because it lets the body lose some of its heat. In this way, the body does not get too hot.
So next time you must look after your skin because it helps you a lot.

However, the FingerReader is not ready for sale. It has a big problem now. Scientists still need to improve it because it can’t work with smart phones. The FingerReader can read books, magazines, newspapers and computer screens, but it has trouble reading a touch screen (触屏). Scientists think that many people may want to buy one if the FingerReader is for sale because it can really change blind people’s life.
