Baozi is one of the common Chinese food for breakfast. But this simple meal became an important character in a film, and even won an Oscar.
On February 24, 2019, the short film Bao won the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film. In the film, a small baozi becomes the “son” of a lonely Chinese woman in Canada.
Domee Shi got the idea from her own experience. When Shi grew up, she wasn’t free and spent little time with her mother.
Bao shows the life of an empty-nest (空巢的) Chinese-Canadian mother. It also tells us that the Chinese woman loves her “son”. She makes delicious food and cleans up the house for her son. These things really show the strong love of Chinese parents for their children.
“Traditionally, Chinese parents don’t say ‘I love you’ to their kids. I didn’t use conversation in the film because I wanted it to be a story that spoke to everyone around the world,” said Shi at an interview.
Moreover, this film can also help parents and children better understand each other and learn how to express (表达) love.

Healthy eating habits along with regular exercise is the only way to become fit. If we have the correct number of calories (卡路里) and exercise regularly, we will lose weight, keep it and feel great, too. During teenage years, it is important to give our body the energy (能量) it needs. If we don’t eat meals, we won’t get enough calories, and then we will feel tired. By the way, calorie is just another word for energy. About 50% of our calories should come from rice, bread, vegetables and fruit. We also need to drink a lot of water, 6 to 8 glasses a day. Drinking enough water will make our skin better and keep us healthy.
Exercise is something that can help to make us look good, feel good and be healthy. Experts (专家) suggest that teenagers should spend at least 30 minutes exercising a day, five times a week. That’s easy to do! They can walk or ride bikes to school, and do sports at school. However, some teenagers often give up sports, saying they have no time left after their studies. In fact, doing exercise can help them sleep better at night and increase their ability to focus on their study.
If we follow the suggestions above, we will look and feel much better and become fit.

Everyone takes baths. It can not only clean your body but also relax yourself. It feels good to have a nice hot bath during the winter, but it can also cause dry skin. What else do we need to know about bathing in winter Let’s have a look.
Why do we feel itchy (痒的) after a bath in winter On the surface (表面) of human skin, there is something called sebum (皮脂层). It can protect our skin and give our skin water. However, the air is colder and drier in winter. Our bodies make less sweat (汗), so we have less sebum. Taking baths can take away the sebum. So, your skin may feel itchy after a bath.
How often should we take a bath in winter Many people shower every day. In summer, you might even take two or three of them. But since your skin may be dry in winter, too many showers can make it even drier. During the cold season, some experts advise showering with warm water. They also advise that people should take a bath for no more than 15 minutes a day.
Some people like to take a shower in the morning, while the others like to take a bath in the evening. Which is a better choice in winter A hot water bath can relax people’s body and it is one of the most popular ways for people to relax. But a hot water bath in winter is likely to make us lazy and sleepy. So it is a good choice to take a hot bath before bedtime.

根据短文内容，简略回答下列问题。
The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. In China, people created the 24 solar terms thousands of years ago to guide agricultural (农业的) production.
Rain Water is one of the 24 solar terms which stands for the increase (增加) in rainfall and rise in temperature. With its arrival, the river water melts, wild geese fly from south to north, and trees and grass turn green again.
Here are several things you may not know but can make you know about Rain Water better. Let me introduce them to you.
Rain in spring is as precious (宝贵的) as oil
According to an old Chinese saying, the rainfall in spring is as precious as oil. In northern China the spring drought (旱灾) is common. So rain is so precious and important to the crops.
Return of a cold period
A returning cold in the late spring often happens during Rain Water. The fast increase in air humidity (湿度) can result in lower temperature and wet weather. Remember not to take off your coats so early in this period.
Visit to in-laws (姻亲)
One of the main customs during Rain Water is sons-in-law (女婿) visiting their in-laws and giving gifts. According to the tradition, gifts are usually two cane chairs with four meters of red belt. They stand for good health and long life. Another traditional gift is cooked pig’s knuckles (蹄). The son-in-law expresses his thankfulness this way.
