Little Nutbrown Hare(栗色的兔子), who was going to bed, held on to Big Nutbrown Hare’s very long ears. He wanted to be sure that Big Nutbrown Hare was listening.“Guess how much I love you,”he said.
“Oh, I don’t think I could guess that,” said Big Nutbrown Hare.
“This much,” said Little Nutbrown Hare, stretching out his arms as wide as they could go.
Big Nutbrown Hare had even longer arms.“But I love you this much,” he said.
“Hmm, that is a lot,” thought Little Nutbrown Hare.
“I love you as high as I can reach,” said Little Nutbrown Hare.
“I love you as high as I can reach,” said Big Nutbrown Hare.
“That is quite high,” thought Little Nutbrown Hare,“I wish I had arms like that.”
Then Little Nutbrown Hare had a good idea. He turned upside down and reached up the tree with his feet.“I love you all the way up to my toes(脚趾头)！”he said.
“And I love you all the way up to your toes,” said Big Nutbrown Hare, lifting him up over his head.
“I love you as high as I can hop(蹦)！”laughed Little Nutbrown Hare, hopping up and down.
“But I love you as high as I can hop,” smiled Big Nutbrown Hare, and he hopped so high that his ears touched the trees above.
“That’s good hopping,” thought Little Nutbrown Hare,“I wish I could hop like that.”
“I love you all the way down the road as far as the river,” cried Little Nutbrown Hare.
“I love you across the river and over the hills,” said Big Nutbrown Hare.
“That’s very far,” thought Little Nutbrown Hare. He was almost too sleepy to think any more.
Then he looked beyond the thorn bushes(荆棘丛)，out into the big dark night. Nothing could be farther than the sky.
“▲ ,” he said, and closed his eyes.
“Oh, that’s far,” said Big Nutbrown Hare.“That is very, very far.”
Big Nutbrown Hare put Little Nutbrown Hare into his bed of leaves and kissed him good night. Then he lay down close by and said quietly with a smile,“I love you right up to the moon-and back.”
——— Adaptation(改编) from Guess how much I love you by Sam McBratney

Your friend comes over to talk to you after lunch—— but when he opens his mouth, a terrible smell hits your nose. Ugh！ He must have eaten garlic(大蒜) during lunch. People who love garlic find it tasty.But the delicious taste comes with garlic breath. It stays in your mouth for hours.
Why does garlic give people such stinky breath Most bad breath comes from small bits of food between your teeth. But garlic breath is different. It doesn't start until the garlic hits your stomach,according to Sheryl Barringer, an American expert in food science.
Garlic breaks down into small particles(微粒) in your stomach. One of these particles is AMS. It is so small that it can move through your stomach to blood. Your blood then moves it to your lungs. There,it mixes with oxygen and carbon dioxide. When you breathe out, AMS comes out together with carbon dioxide. This causes garlic breath.
This can last up to 24 hours. That would be terrible for the people around you. Luckily, there are a few foods that can help. Eating apples, lettuce(生菜) or peppermint(薄荷) greatly make garlic breath less, Barringer told Live Science. That's because these foods can make AMS particles big enough so that they cannot go into your blood and lungs.

Everyone is born with the ability to learn. But whether or not you can do this well depends on your learning habits. 36
Creating an interest in what they learn
Studies show that if you are interested in something, your brain is more active and it is also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time. 37 This way they will not get bored.
Practicing and learning from mistakes
38 Even if you learn something well, you will forget it if you don’t use it.“Practice makes perfect”. Good learners will keep practicing what they have learned, and they are not afraid of making mistakes.
Developing their study skills
It is not enough to just study hard. Good learners know the best way to study. 39 They also review what they have learned by reading their notes or by explaining the information to another student.
Asking questions
Good learners often ask questions during or after class. They even ask each other and try to find out the answers. 40
Learning is a lifelong journey because every day brings something new. Everything that you learn becomes a part of you and changes you. So learn wisely and learn well.

Sponge gourd soup(丝瓜汤), a common dish in Chinese homes, has recently become popular online. It is not famous for its 41 , but because it shows how parents sometimes ignore(忽略) their children's feelings.
This idea started in early August on TikTok. An online star 42 Leizi posted a short funny video.In the video, he plays both a noisy mother and a quiet son. The mother keeps telling her son to drink sponge gourd soup because it is 43 and cheap. The son says"no" many times. 44 he finally gets very angry, the mother says,“You didn't get angry so easily before! Your liver fire(肝火) must be too 45 .” She then suggests drinking more soup to 46 the heat or seeing a TCM doctor.
Young people online say this looks very 47 . They feel their parents often push advice about food, clothes or lifestyle, but do not listen to their 48 . In many families, parents’ 49 come first. If children push back, they are called“not grown up” or“ungrateful(不感恩的)”. One user said she told her mother five times she did not 50 watermelons. Her mother 51 bought one and then said on WeChat that her child was ungrateful. Many people think this shows parents pay much 52 to what they believe is“for your own good,” while ignoring what the child actually wants.
Some people, however, support the parents. They say 53 telling the same advice again and again like“drink soup,”“dress warmly,” or“use your phone less” is not always control. Sometimes it is just their way to talk and 54 care.
Experts say both sides want to 55 with each other but they use different“languages.” Love should be based on respect and acceptance: I love you as you are, not as I imagine you to be.

Which would you spend your money on, an outing with friends or a pair of expensive shoes In my opinion, spending money on experiences brings greater 56 .
My first reason is that experiences make us 57 from who we used to be. We are not the result of the things we' ve bought. Instead, we are the result of everything we' ve 58 and done. For example,getting expensive clothes didn't change who I was, but the camping trip last summer certainly did— it 59 me more independent.
What's more, I prefer experiences 60 they bring people closer and create lasting memories(回忆). Three years ago I met some teenagers on a study trip and now I still keep in touch with them, but I 61 remember what I bought during the trip.
Finally, although some people say it is a great joy to own things, I think 62 the things is more
pleasant. For 63 , I spend most of my pocket money on new books, but I love the experience of reading, not owning the books!
In a word, experiences make us who we are and develop stronger relationships(关系). So next time before you pay 64 something, give it a second thought. Ask 65 ,“Which will I spend my money on, an outing or a pair of shoes ”
