细菌课堂小知识
Ahh…aaahhhhchooo! That sneeze(打喷嚏) is uncovered, and so the germs(细菌) fly through the air. But have you ever wondered about the germs in your body They are small organisms(有机体) that live inside us. Germs are alive and they can cause us to get sick. It is impossible to keep germs out of our bodies. They are so tiny that we do not even know they are coming inside our bodies. The only way we know that germs have made us sick is when we begin to feel uncomfortable.
Germs are usually spread through the air. They come out in a sneeze, a cough, or a breath. They can also be spread by saliva(唾液), sweat, or blood. Sometimes, they come from touching something. For example, a person can touch his or her nose and then touch a tap in a public restroom. If someone else touches that tap right away, he or she can pick up these germs. How can you protect yourself from germs The most important way to do this is to wash your hands. Soap and water are a germ’s enemies. They wash the germ away. This is why it is so important to wash your hands throughout the day. Hands should be washed for about twenty seconds.
Staying healthy also keeps germs away. This means getting enough rest and not being too tired. It also means eating good foods and exercising. These are germ-fighting secrets!
1. When will we know that germs have made us sick

Passage 8
What will you paint if someone asks you to tell them about China For 12-year-old Mao Mofei, the answer is a colorful combination(结合) of the ancient and the modern.
Mao’s painting, Future Is Coming, is on show at the International Youth Art Invitation Exhibition which celebrates 50 years of diplomatic(外交的) ties between China and Italy.
“My picture shows my view of what my hometown will be like in the future: people live modern lives with 5G and high-speed railway. There are robots everywhere to do things for humans and green forests, clean rivers and wild animals; scientists are sending rockets(火箭) into space, while artists are performing Sichuan opera, ” said Mao, “I want to show the beauty of China to the world.”
Mao started to learn painting from an early age. The paper and brushes are not only where her imagination comes from but her ways to build friendships. When Mao was in the second grade, she got a chance to visit an Indonesian school. There she used fun pictures to communicate with Indonesian students. The local students really enjoyed her paintings.

Passage 9
A psychologist (心理学家)walked around a room while teaching people how to manage their stress (压力) . As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the “half empty or half full” question. Instead, with a smile on her face, she said, “How heavy is this glass of water ”
Answers called out ranged (范围)from 8 oz. to 20 oz.
She replied, “The weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it’s not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel bad and paralyzed (瘫痪). In each case, the weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.”
She continued, “The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed—and you can’t do anything!”
It’s important to remember to let go of your stresses. As early in the evening as you can, put all your stress down. Don’t carry them through the evening and into the night. Remember to put the glass down!

Passage 10
Embroidery (刺绣) is often seen as “women’s work.” People think that it’s useless for a boy to learn embroidery. Therefore, Fu Jian’s parents didn’t want him to work in this industry. But Fu didn’t care. He believed that he could do it well.
Fu was born into an embroidery family in Yangzhou. His mother is a master of Suzhou embroidery. Under the influence of his parents, Fu first fell in love with the art of embroidery at the age of four. In his senior years of high school, Fu was clear about his life goal: to promote (推广) the traditional art of embroidery.
After graduating from college, Fu founded a research center of Suzhou embroidery together with his mother. Since then, he has invented many new stitches (针法) and has trained many embroidery workers.
The embroidery artists often work overtime to finish their works. But, even so, Fu continues to find pleasure in his work. “I am doing what I love, so I never feel tired,” the 35-year-old Fu says.
Most recently, the artist created a piece of “bronze ware (青铜器)” on a piece of cloth using his needle and thread (针线). “I thought of doing this because many bronzes can only be seen in museums. Yet a work of embroidery can be hung in one’s home or office. People can see it at any time,” Fu explains.
Look at the realistic metallic (金属般的) shine and strong 3D effect of the “bronze ware” below. Can you believe that it was only made out of thread

Passage 11
Everybody loves a great holiday. Sunbathing (日光浴) or walking by a beautiful ocean is wonderful. But what happens when vacations go wrong
Our family vacation to Florida last year was a really bad dream! When we arrived at the airport, mom realized that she had left her bag in the taxi. All our ID cards and money were in it! We called the taxi company and luckily the driver returned it.
Then we were told that our plane was delayed (延迟). I had taken a Spanish book on vacation, because I wanted to learn the language. So, I began to read the book. When we got on the plane four hours later, I had read 200 pages!
Luckily, our bad luck was over! When we arrived at the hotel that my dad booked, both of the two rooms were really big. Opening the window and seeing the sea made me feel that our bad luck was over.
The next day, the weather was very good. We went to the beach and had a sunbathing, and we swam in the sea. We came back to the hotel late every day, because we enjoyed many activities. These days would be the happiest days for me!
Although we met many terrible things on holiday, I think it was an unforgettable experience for us. I learned that everything would be OK, and we shouldn’t take bad things too seriously.

Passage 16
Ray Charles, a creative musician who shaped soul music, was born in Albany, Georgia. He could play the piano by the age of five, but when he was six years old, he started losing his sight gradually. He became totally blind at the age of seven. His mother took care of him. She stayed positive and often reminded that the loss of sight did not mean a loss of wisdom or will. She kept encouraging her son to do what other children could do. While Ray’s disability may have caused a hard situation to his life, it certainly did hold him back.
His studies at the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind were important to the development of his ability as a musician. There, he perfected his piano techniques and learned to play other instruments. More importantly, by learning to read and write in braille(盲文), he was able to start writing his own music.
Ray lost his father at age 10 and then his mother at age 15. After his mother passed away, he left school to figure out his future. He began to work with different music bands. He was a pianist, a musician and a band leader who always showed amazing energy in his work and self-confidence in everything he did.

Passage 17
咖啡因对身体的影响
What is caffeine(咖啡因) Caffeine is something that you can find in some drinks, such as coffee and tea. Caffeine makes you feel more awake. It can also give you a short burst(爆发) of energy. Your heart beats faster when caffeine is in your body.
But sometimes caffeine can be a serious problem for you. Like many kids, you probably enjoy drinking cola very much. If you drink too much cola in a day, your body will get too much caffeine. Then, you might feel nervous or worried, or be in a bad mood(情绪). What’s worse, you might get an upset stomach and a headache. You can also have trouble falling asleep at night.
And what about energy drinks Unluckily, they usually contain(含有) the most caffeine. Some energy drinks have three times more caffeine than cola does. These drinks have far too much caffeine for kids. So, it could be much better for kids to drink milk, water or fruit juice for getting a better mood, because these drinks don't contain caffeine. What’s more, children shouldn’t drink more than one can or glass of cola in a day, or, drink it too close to bedtime.
It is better to get your energy from healthy foods and drinks. In this way, you can have lots of energy to study, play and grow without doing any harm to your body.

Sue’s dad was also volunteered to help. Sue was getting used to it. Suddenly, Cindy called for help from the back of the house. Sue dropped a pile of(一摞) paper and ran to help her sister who was carrying a very heavy mirror.
Sue wondered why the Crowleys even had this. The mirror was too heavy to hang. “They have so much junk and they should get rid of them,” said Sue to herself. “How can you say that ” asked Cindy. “Don’t people get to decide for themselves on how they want to live People think lizards(蜥蜴) are scary and you have three of them for pets.” “You can’t compare my lizards with this mess,” said Sue. “My lizards are rare animals.” The girls’ argument reached their dad’s ears. He stopped the fight and asked the girls to go on picking up the mirror.
After the work, dad came to Sue and thanked her for giving a hand today. He also told Sue, “Everyone has different likes and dislikes. You can't be critical(批判的) of others just because you have different tastes and interests. We are here to help, not to judge.” Sue nodded her head.

Jack is 11 years old and he looks a little different from other children. When Jack went out, someone would always ask questions about his small ears. This made Jack feel uncomfortable.
Each time Jack’s mother would explain that there was nothing wrong with his small ears. But Jack just sat there in silence and he knew it wasn’t a fact. When Jack was 4, his parents brought him to a hospital. He was told by the doctor that he had Microtia(小耳症), which meant his ears didn’t form properly and would remain small. However, Jack’s mother always encouraged him to be confident. And when people asked questions about Jack’s small ears, she always answered patiently. By doing so, she wanted to teach her son to face the reality bravely.
At first, it was hard for Jack to explain his small ears to people like his mother did. But Jack’s mother set a good example for him. Jack decided to make a change like his mother and believed he could do it by himself. Jack started to learn how to reply when he was asked about his small ears. His family, his neighbors and some of his friends treated him well and warmly.
Jack, who used to think he was different from other children, has now become a kid who thinks he is normal.

Boydell was born in New York City. Last year, at age 10, he wrote his first book, He’s Got Moves. In the book, he analyzed(分析) 25 important chess games dating back to 1851. His new book, How a King Plays, is coming out this month. It’s a guidebook having 64 suggestions to help players strengthen(加强) their skills.
“There are a lot of things I love about chess, but most importantly, it’s a thinking game,” Boydell said. Although he’s proud of his achievements, he said, “You have to think of the losses, because it’s almost impossible to have only wins and no failures.”
Boydell’s hope is to become a Grandmaster (the highest title in chess). To achieve this dream, he improves himself by watching chess videos and playing in person—his preferred way, especially at his favorite chess place, the Marshall Chess Club in New York City.
