The lion dance, a traditional Chinese folk art, has kept its fascination for thousands of years. It began in ancient times as a way to drive away cruel spirits and bad luck. Over time, it’s not only a festive activity but also brings good luck.
Lions are not from China. It is said that lions first came into China around the Han Dynasty, but the lion dance art started over 500 years later, in the Northern Wei Dynasty. People used animal hair to make lion-like costumes, then hid inside and copied the movements of the lion. During performances, two people used things like ropes to tease (逗弄) the lion in front, creating fun and lively shows. By the Tang Dynasty, the lion dance had grown popular from nobles (贵族) to common people.
During its thousand-year development, the lion dance has formed two performance styles in the north and south, the Southern Lion and the Northern Lion. The Northern Lion focuses on strong, acrobatic (杂技的) moves, while the Southern Lion is known for colorful costumes and playful actions.
Today, some creative performers mix the Southern Lion and the Northern Lion. It not only keeps the tradition but also makes the performance more interesting and exciting. The “lions” usually interact with watchers during the performances. They blink (眨) their big eyes and get close to the crowd. At this time, people often touch the “lions”, hoping to get good luck.
The lion dance has now spread worldwide as a symbol of Chinese culture. During festival s like Chinese New Year, lion dance shows light up Chinatowns in many countries. Its joyful spirit helps build friendships between different cultures. The dance also shows the courage, energy and creativity of Chinese people.

Some young people may begin puberty at 8, while others may not start until 14 or 15. Usually, teenage girls start puberty two years before teenage boys do. For boys and girls, it is usually complete by the age of 18.
During those years, the body develops in many ways. Feelings can also change quickly.
Teenage boys during puberty often begin to take unnecessary risks. Their attention is on having fun and being accepted. They like trying some challenging outdoor activities like skateboarding and rock climbing so they need to think deeply before they act and make good decisions for themselves.
A girl’s personality often doesn’t develop in the same way as a boy’s. Teenage girls sometimes don’t believe in themselves. They aren’t sure about their own feelings. However, they are usually afraid to tell their parents or teachers about their problems. For this reason, teenage girls should be encouraged to discuss things with trusted adults.

For many years, historians thought the Altar Stone at the center of Stonehenge, England’s famous historic place, came from Wales. However, new research suggests its journey was much longer. According to a study published recently in Nature, the stone may have traveled all the way from Scotland—meaning that builders transported it across more than 750 kilometers around 5,000 years ago.
The Altar Stone lies partly buried inside Stonehenge. “For many years, the central stone has been a mystery, lying in what should be the most important part of Stonehenge,” says Joshua Pollard, a historian.
Stonehenge was built in several steps, beginning around 3000 BC． Researchers believe builders placed the 13,200-pound Altar Stone there sometime between 2620 and 2480 BC．
No one knows exactly how the builders moved such a heavy stone. Researchers think that people during the Neolithic period（石器时代）used rivers and waterways to transport heavy objects. For example, a large stone tool was once moved from Normandy to Dorset. So, it’s possible that the Altar Stone was also transported in the same way when building Stonehenge.
However, another historian Mike Pitts thinks a land journey is also reasonable. “If you put a stone on a boat out to sea, not only do you risk losing the stone—but also nobody can see it,” Pitts says. “On land, many communities would see the journey, and the stone would become more valuable…as it traveled south.”
Pitts also adds that the study is so important because it shows that ancient groups of people were good at communicating and working together even though they were very far apart.
What it is: The 13,200-pound 26 stone lying in the most important part of Stonehenge.
When it was placed:Between 2620 and 2480 BC． Where it came: It may have traveled much farther than people thought—not from Wales but 27 covering more than 750 kilometers 5,000 years ago. How it traveled:*People might have transported it by 28 *People might have transported it by land for 29 and higher value of the stone.
What the study shows: Ancient groups of people had good 30 although they were far apart.

What is gossip
Gossip is sharing personal information about someone who is not present in a way that would make the person feel angry, hurt, or embarrassed. People repeat the gossip to others, and soon lots of people have heard of it.
Why do people gossip
Sometimes people gossip to be mean (刻薄的) to someone they do not like. They want the person to feel angry, hurt, or embarrassed when they find out about the gossip. Sometimes people also gossip as a way of showing off. They like to show people that they know things that others do not know.
Should you believe gossip
Gossip can be true or partly true. Sometimes gossip is not true at all because someone made it up. When you hear gossip, remind yourself that you do not know how true it is. It might be just a lie.
Should you repeat gossip to others
It is not nice to tell stories that could make someone feel bad. Even if you know the gossip is true, don’t repeat it. The information you heard might be something the person wants to keep private. You would not want people to gossip about something you want to keep private. Be kind to others by not repeating gossip about them.
When should you tell someone what you heard
Tell an adult when you hear about something that could be dangerous. For example, you might hear that someone in your class is getting to school by walking on train tracks. Telling an adult about this is not gossip because you are trying to keep someone safe.

Biologists study living things, including plants and animals. A marine biologist is someone who studies plants and animals that live in the ocean. Thousands of different plants and animals live in the ocean, so many marine biologists choose to study just one thing. For example, a marine biologist might decide to study dolphins, sharks, or seaweed.
Some marine biologists work on a boat. They might watch whales that come to the ocean’s surface and observe how they behave and where they travel. Marine biologists might also use underwater cameras to watch animals that do not come to the surface.
Other marine biologists go down into the ocean. Some are scuba divers (水肺潜水员) who collect underwater plants so they can learn more about them. The scuba divers might also collect marine animals. They study the animals to learn about how their bodies work and whether they have any diseases.
Sometimes marine biologists use a small type of submarine (潜水艇) to go into the ocean. The submarine has bright lights and lots of clear plastic so people can see what is happening under the ocean’s surface. Some marine biologists work in laboratories, observing fish in large water tanks, or looking at tiny sea creatures under a microscope.
If you are interested in becoming a marine biologist, learn to read and write well. Marine biologists read and write many scientific reports. You should also work hard at science. People take lots of science courses at a university to become marine biologists.

Wang’s uncles and cousins were all famous calligraphers of their time. At seven, Wang began a systematic (系统的) study of calligraphy under a female calligrapher, Wei Shuo. He kept copying the Wei-style calligraphy for years and learned much from the works of calligraphers.
To practice calligraphy, wherever he went, he would try to find out the styles of previous calligraphers and copy them, collecting many calligraphic materials. There were writing brushes, ink sticks and ink stones in his study, yard and even outside the toilet. Whenever he thought of a good-structured character, he would write it down right away.
Wang wrote with smoothness and grandness. Some people have described his calligraphy as “the dragon jumping over the heavenly gate and the tiger lying in the palace of the phoenix”. Wang was good at many types of calligraphy but the xingshu style Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Collection (《兰亭集序》) is the most popular of his works.

For many years, historians thought the Altar Stone at the center of Stonehenge, England’s famous historic place, came from Wales. However, new research suggests its journey was much longer. According to a study published recently in Nature, the stone may have traveled all the way from Scotland—meaning that builders transported it across more than 750 kilometers around 5,000 years ago.
The Altar Stone lies partly buried inside Stonehenge. “For many years, the central stone has been a mystery, lying in what should be the most important part of Stonehenge,” says Joshua Pollard, a historian.
Stonehenge was built in several steps, beginning around 3000 BC． Researchers believe builders placed the 13,200-pound Altar Stone there sometime between 2620 and 2480 BC．
No one knows exactly how the builders moved such a heavy stone. Researchers think that people during the Neolithic period（石器时代）used rivers and waterways to transport heavy objects. For example, a large stone tool was once moved from Normandy to Dorset. So, it’s possible that the Altar Stone was also transported in the same way when building Stonehenge.
However, another historian Mike Pitts thinks a land journey is also reasonable. “If you put a stone on a boat out to sea, not only do you risk losing the stone—but also nobody can see it,” Pitts says. “On land, many communities would see the journey, and the stone would become more valuable…as it traveled south.”
Pitts also adds that the study is so important because it shows that ancient groups of people were good at communicating and working together even though they were very far apart.
What it is: The 13,200-pound 26 stone lying in the most important part of Stonehenge.
When it was placed:Between 2620 and 2480 BC． Where it came: It may have traveled much farther than people thought—not from Wales but 27 covering more than 750 kilometers 5,000 years ago. How it traveled:*People might have transported it by 28 *People might have transported it by land for 29 and higher value of the stone.
What the study shows: Ancient groups of people had good 30 although they were far apart.

What is gossip
Gossip is sharing personal information about someone who is not present in a way that would make the person feel angry, hurt, or embarrassed. People repeat the gossip to others, and soon lots of people have heard of it.
Why do people gossip
Sometimes people gossip to be mean (刻薄的) to someone they do not like. They want the person to feel angry, hurt, or embarrassed when they find out about the gossip. Sometimes people also gossip as a way of showing off. They like to show people that they know things that others do not know.
Should you believe gossip
Gossip can be true or partly true. Sometimes gossip is not true at all because someone made it up. When you hear gossip, remind yourself that you do not know how true it is. It might be just a lie.
Should you repeat gossip to others
It is not nice to tell stories that could make someone feel bad. Even if you know the gossip is true, don’t repeat it. The information you heard might be something the person wants to keep private. You would not want people to gossip about something you want to keep private. Be kind to others by not repeating gossip about them.
When should you tell someone what you heard
Tell an adult when you hear about something that could be dangerous. For example, you might hear that someone in your class is getting to school by walking on train tracks. Telling an adult about this is not gossip because you are trying to keep someone safe.

Biologists study living things, including plants and animals. A marine biologist is someone who studies plants and animals that live in the ocean. Thousands of different plants and animals live in the ocean, so many marine biologists choose to study just one thing. For example, a marine biologist might decide to study dolphins, sharks, or seaweed.
Some marine biologists work on a boat. They might watch whales that come to the ocean’s surface and observe how they behave and where they travel. Marine biologists might also use underwater cameras to watch animals that do not come to the surface.
Other marine biologists go down into the ocean. Some are scuba divers (水肺潜水员) who collect underwater plants so they can learn more about them. The scuba divers might also collect marine animals. They study the animals to learn about how their bodies work and whether they have any diseases.
Sometimes marine biologists use a small type of submarine (潜水艇) to go into the ocean. The submarine has bright lights and lots of clear plastic so people can see what is happening under the ocean’s surface. Some marine biologists work in laboratories, observing fish in large water tanks, or looking at tiny sea creatures under a microscope.
If you are interested in becoming a marine biologist, learn to read and write well. Marine biologists read and write many scientific reports. You should also work hard at science. People take lots of science courses at a university to become marine biologists.

Sage of calligraphy
Wang Xizhi was born in Linyi of Shandong Province. He used to be a general and officer in the Jin dynasty, a famous calligrapher of the Eastern Jin dynasty. Wang is still known as the calligraphy sage.
Wang’s uncles and cousins were all famous calligraphers of their time. At seven, Wang began a systematic (系统的) study of calligraphy under a female calligrapher, Wei Shuo. He kept copying the Wei-style calligraphy for years and learned much from the works of calligraphers.
To practice calligraphy, wherever he went, he would try to find out the styles of previous calligraphers and copy them, collecting many calligraphic materials. There were writing brushes, ink sticks and ink stones in his study, yard and even outside the toilet. Whenever he thought of a good-structured character, he would write it down right away.
Wang wrote with smoothness and grandness. Some people have described his calligraphy as “the dragon jumping over the heavenly gate and the tiger lying in the palace of the phoenix”. Wang was good at many types of calligraphy but the xingshu style Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Collection (《兰亭集序》) is the most popular of his works.
There is a story behind this work. In 353, Wang invited famous people to get together at a party with 41 guests at the Orchid Pavilion, where they drank. The guests were asked to write poems. The poems were collected, and Wang wrote Preface (序言) to the Orchid Pavilion Collection on his own, describing how happy these men are. Wang’s talents in calligraphy was brought into full play during it.
The Song dynasty scholar Mi Fu called Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Collection is the world’s best work in xingshu style. It’s said that Emperor Taizong of the Tang dynasty treasured the work and had it buried in his tomb. He left behind calligraphic works, Preface to the Orchid Pavilion is one of them, as well as Yue Yi Dissertation and Huangting Classics in kaishu style.
