Next, break the ice, take a small bite of the skin, and drink the sweet juice. Finally, take off the skin and enjoy the soft fruit inside.

A boy named Leo spent his whole life herding goats in the hills. He wore a rough wool coat and shared bread with poor villagers. One day, palace messengers found him. “You are the long-lost prince,” they said. “You will be our new king.”
Leo was surprised and scared. “I’m just a goatherd,” he refused, “I don’t know how to rule a kingdom.” But he had no choice. When he arrived at the palace, the chief minister(大臣) showed him a golden crown inlaid(镶嵌) with diamonds.

“Why spend so much on a crown while my people died of hunger ” he asked the minister angrily. The minister laughed coldly. “A king needs to look powerful, not worry about poor villagers.” That night, Leo couldn’t sleep. He kept thinking: What makes a true king
On coronation(加冕礼) day, Leo put on his old wool coat, broke a wild rose branch and made it into a small crown. He said firmly: “The first duty of a king is to care for his people. This rose crown reminds me what makes a true king.” He felt a heavy weight in his heart.

56.Colmar, a city in France, has a clever way to cut food waste: giving free chickens to its people. This project called “One family, one hen” started in 2015.
At first, more than 200 homes from the city joined the project. It turned out to be a big success. Since 2022, all 20 parts of the city have taken part.
People have to make a real effort. City waste workers help each home check the chickens’ conditions. They make sure chickens have enough space to live.
So far, the project has given out over 5,000 chickens. These chickens eat kitchen leftovers. A chicken lives up to 4 years on average and eats 150g of leftovers every day. This means 2737.5 tonnes (公吨) less waste over 10 years.
Food waste is making global warming worse. It’s important to find ways to avoid it. A simple idea like this can go a long way.

I’m Li Hua, a Grade 8 student. I’m writing to apply to be a volunteer at Yancheng Red-crowned Crane Nature Reserve during the winter vacation.
I have always loved cranes and I want to help protect these beautiful rare birds. I know Yancheng has a warm and wet winter, with lots of wetlands that are perfect for cranes to live in. But the area faces problems like water pollution and loss of habitat. These issues deeply concern me, and I’m determined to make a difference.
If I become a volunteer, I will help pick up litter to keep the environment clean, and tell visitors not to make loud noises that might disturb the cranes.
I hope to get this chance to learn more about wild animal protection. Please reply to me at lihua@.
Thank you!
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
