Then one 6 when we went down for breakfast, we found our Christmas stockings (长筒袜) hanging on the wall. In each stocking was one 7 for each of us.
We shouted and laughed, “Santa did come to 8 us!” We hugged each other, 9 the oranges and had one piece after another, allowing the sweet juice to run slowly down our throats.

My friend Michelle is blind, but you’d never know it. She makes such good use of her other 31 , including her “sixth sense”, that many people often don’t realize (意识到) she’s blind. I realized this the first time after my six-year-old daughter, Kayla, went to play there. When Kayla came home, she was very 32 about her day. She told me they played games and did art projects. But she was excited about her fingerpainting (手指画) project.
“Mom, guess what ” said Kayla, all smiles. “I learned how to 33 colors today! Blue and red make purple, and yellow and blue make green! And Michelle painted with us.”
To my great surprise, my child learned about colors from a blind friend! “Michelle told me my picture 34 happiness and pride (骄傲). She really 35 what I was doing!” Kayla said she had never known how good fingerpainting felt 36 Michelle showed her how to paint without looking at her paper.
I realized Kayla didn’t know that Michelle was blind. When I told my daughter that Michelle was blind, she was quiet for a while. At first, she didn’t 37 me. “But Mommy, Michelle knew what was in my picture!” Kayla said. And I knew my child was 38 because Michelle listened to Kayla describe (描述) her artwork. Michelle also heard Kayla’s pride in her work.
We were 39 for a minute. Then Kayla said slowly, “You know, Mommy, Michelle really did ‘see’ my picture. She just 40 my eyes.”

Every year, millions of British people take their bags and leave their comfortable homes to go 61 . Sleeping in a tent or cooking on a campfire isn’t my idea of a fun holiday, but camping is very popular in 62 and I want to know why. So this week, I spoke to a travel-lover, Kirsty Baxter, to 63 more.
Why do people like camping
“There are lots of reasons for this, It’s interesting. It’s cheap and it’s 64 . It’s a great way to meet new people and spend lots of time outside. I go camping about five or six times a year. I love 65 the noise and the stress of the city. There’s no TV or the Internet so you just listen to the birds, look at the sky or talk to other people. For me, the best thing about camping is being outdoors in beautiful and 66 places.”
Is there anything you don’t 67 about camping
“Sometimes there aren’t any showers or any hot water outside. 68 , you need to take lots of stuff (东西) with you-a tent, a sleeping bag, clothes, things for cooking, so your bag is usually heavy. And it’s 69 in the middle of the night. You need warm clothes and lots of blankets (毯子) , even in summer.”
After the 70 , I have a better understanding of the reason why British people are fond of camping.

A few years ago I had a wonderful Christmas experience that finally changed how I celebrate the festival. Now I’ve decided to 71 it with all of you.
Before that Christmas, I was running around like a crazy person to get 72 ready. One day I took my three little kids to Walmart (沃尔玛) to buy the last things for the next day. I was terribly 73 and kept thinking to myself, “What is the true 74 of Christmas ”
When I finished 75 and was walking towards the exit, I noticed an old man sitting on the bench (长凳) 76 an envelope in his hand. He handed something to a young, well-dressed man and said, “Merry Christmas!” It was a $20 bill. The young man got a(n) 77 and asked, “Are you 78 ” “Yes, Merry Christmas,” he replied. So the young man got the money and left 79 .
“What’s he doing ” I was more confused (困惑的) 80 I watched him giving more bills to some other shoppers. Just then he 81 up and walked over to me. Then he pulled a $50 bill out of his envelope and handed it to me, saying “Merry Christmas!”
My face turned red and I said, “Sir, I 82 need 50 dollars.” “Well then,” he smiled and said, “find someone who does. Merry Christmas.” And he left smiling.
What a 83 man he was and how many people he helped out that day! All of a sudden, for the 84 time I felt the real Christmas spirit. And I decided I’d 85 his spirit and find someone who needed that $50.
From then on, I was used to teaching my kids about love and kindness and letting them feel the spirit the Christmas season can bring. Merry Christmas, everyone!

I just marked my first Mid-Autumn Festival celebration in China. Exactly a week after arriving in China, I was kind of homesick. Memories of past 86 back in Serbia (塞尔维亚) always appeared in my mind. On the morning of Friday September 13th, almost everyone on the campus (校园) was very 87 . Chinese students explained to us the importance of the Festival and 88 the folk tales (民间故事) with us happily. At lunchtime, mooncakes were 89 . Then came the night. The full moon appeared: a huge bright ball high above the campus. We all looked at it with 90 . As Serbian music played on my headphones, I danced my way, lost in the wind, and forgot myself for a 91 .
As I went back into my room, my curious (好奇的) mind 92 me online. There I came across the poem Prelude to Water Melody (水调歌头), written by the well-known Chinese writer Su Dongpo. This poem concisely (精确地) described what he was 93 . Writing to his family, Su 94 what time it was back at home. I was also trying to find out what time it was back at home. In the end, Su asked his family to join him in 95 the moon on a clear night. What a way to finish! I hoped that my family were watching the 96 moon with me at the same time.
And while we may go away from home, the 97 are still the most important to our life. As the 98 use the Mid-Autumn Festival to gather with the loved ones, the Serbian community also get together, share a meal and walk on the streets under the neon lights (霓虹灯).
Thank my Chinese friends, whose care made me and a crowd of other foreign students experience a/an 99 Mid-Autumn Festival. Thank my Chinese friends, whose 100 made me and a crowd of other foreign students feel like we were at home.

Fashion comes and goes quickly. However, many goods people buy to catch up with fashion end up in the dustbin. Now, the trend (趋势) of picking up unused things to reuse them is 111 in China. Young people are giving these things a second 112 . Called “stoopers”, they are mainly in big cities like Shanghai, Beijing and Guangzhou.
Chen Jiaorong, 27, is one of them. She started stooping in June, 2022 when she found that many people in Shanghai were letting go of things 113 used. After that, she usually 114 treasure (珍宝) in her free time. Now, her small apartment 115 things redesigned from the goods she collected, including tables, chairs and clothing.
“Some say stooping means collecting rubbish,” Chen said. “But for me, it is about making full use of 116 things.” That’s why she wanted to introduce the trend to others. Sometimes Chen also sticks 117 notes on goods that she doesn’t need and posts them on social media so that others will be interested in them.
With a 118 of keeping things since childhood, Huang Xiaohe from Kunming No.1 High School also loves stooping. 119 she has few chances to go stooping in her city, Huang still finds unused goods around her school, cleans and redesigns them at home.

One day, our teacher took us out and we had a 123 in the field where the forest used to be. While eating and drinking, we talked about the beautiful forest we once had. One of my classmates came from a village in the west of our country. 124 told us what he thought about the change. “It makes me really 125 to learn that a forest has disappeared. My parents have taught me to 126 think about seven generations (七代人) in the future. That’s to say, when we do something to the land, we should never hurt it. We must care about nature and leave it good enough 127 next generations.”
When we heard 128 he said, we kept silent first. “Let’s plant some trees!” said our teacher after a moment. “It will be a good 129 !” So that’s what we did. For the rest of that spring, we worked hard and we planted thousands of trees.

Scientists tell us a piece of surprising news that cows are a large source (来源) of the greenhouse gases. Now scientists have shown that the 141 from cows can be reduced by adding a little seaweed to their food.
Cows have one special 142 , which allows them to break down grass and other foods that humans can’t digest (消化). 143 the process (过程) of breaking down the grass also produces lots of methane (甲烷). Methane is the world’s second 144 greenhouse gas. The methane comes out of a cow’s body mainly when it burps (打嗝).
The researchers studied 21 cows 145 a farm for about five months. They taught the cows to get their food from the inside of a special hood (罩), which allowed the scientists to measure (测量) the methane that the cows were 146 . They used a small amount of seaweed, which they mixed with the cows’ food.
The results were very good. In some cases, the cows produced 82% 147 methane. But there are still some big 148 with the idea of feeding cows seaweed. For one thing, there’s not enough seaweed to feed all of the cows in the world.
A bigger problem is that for most of their lives, cows live in fields, where they eat the grass. That means there’s no chance to feed 149 seaweed every day.
150 , it’s very good news that something as simple as feeding cows seaweed can help reduce some of the pollution.

With Shanghai starting to sort trash, one country naturally catches our attention—Sweden, one of the world’s best countries in waste management, with a 151 recycling level up to 99%. Why did Sweden make such an 152
Like many other countries, Sweden was once a land with much trash 153 the government decided to clean it up. Then trash sorting took top priority (优先). The Swedish government believed that children 154 the idea of trash sorting from an early age, so it became a part of the national education. 155 were given the knowledge in the school, and then taught their parents at home. After the efforts, the rules of trash sorting have 156 become part of Swedes’ daily life.
Many Swedish neighborhoods have central collection stations, from which pipelines run through walls and into the ground, connecting different kinds of rubbish bins. The bin has a sensor. Once the bin is 157 , it opens itself, and the rubbish, driven by strong winds, rushes to the central collection station at a 158 of 70 km/h. Rubbish collection is done 159 a clean way.
Right now, you and your family may face the difficulty of sorting out the rubbish. 160 if we can really see the advantages—a beautiful picture like Sweden, pains are worthwhile.

Zheng 188 to make a change. She started an organization. It works with game companies (公司), artists and programmers, and makes climate change something that can be 189 , felt and dealt with.

Nature reserves (保护区) provide the best home for wild animals with warm weather, water, plants and wetlands. Now, the AI system (系统) in reserves plays an important role in studying wildlife. Instead of using binoculars (望远镜), people can 196 animals’ activities on big screens.
The AI system can be very 197 . First, it can recognize different animals by their tails, feet, or beaks and 198 their numbers. Second, it can record animals’ actions all day and night, which humans couldn’t do before. It also notices unusual behaviors. For example, if an animal moves 199 or lies still for too long, the system will 200 researchers to help quickly. Besides, it keeps unauthorized (未经许可) people out of protected areas and teaches visitors about wildlife.
But there are still 201 to be solved. For example, sometimes the AI system mixes up one animal with another. It might mistake plants for animals and provides 202 information for researchers. Also, because the system isn’t used everywhere in reserves, people still need to 203 some areas themselves. To improve the AI system, nature reserves are working with high-tech companies to make the system better and cover more 204 .
Although the AI system isn’t 205 , it works faster and protects animals more effectively (有效地) than old tools. Most importantly, it helps keep the natural ecosystem in balance.
