The sun is always shining. But it can only shine on one side of the earth at one time. When the sun is shining on one side of the earth, it is night on the other side.
At night, you can see the stars(星星). The stars are in the sky all day. But the light from the sun is so bright that you can’t see them. When night comes, there is no light, and the stars are bright enough to see.
The stars look very small. But some of them are even bigger than the sun. They look small because they are so far away from you. Big things look much smaller when they are far away. The sun is closer(近)to the earth than other stars, so it looks bigger.

Can you dance on Jupiter(木星)? No, you cannot dance on Jupiter. You cannot even stand on the planet.
Jupiter is made mostly up of liquid(液体) and gas. There are lots of clouds on Jupiter. They make the planet look like it has stripes(条纹). The clouds form bands of color. They are blue, brown, yellow, white and red. The bands move in opposite directions. The wind in the bands blows very quickly.
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun. It is the largest planet in the solar system. On Jupiter, there is a storm called the great red spot(大红斑). The storm is two times wider than our whole planet. This storm is like a hurricane(飓风) on Earth. But it has lasted at least 340 years. It is one of Jupiter’s many storms.
Jupiter has more moons(卫星) than any other planet. It has at least 63 moons. One of Jupiter’s largest moons is Io(eye-oh). Io has many volcanoes(火山). A volcano is a mountain made up of Lava. Lava is hot melted rock or mounted rock that has cooled and hardened.
Europa is also one of Jupiter’s largest moons. This moon looks very different from Io. It is covered with ice. The layer of ice on Europa’s surface is several miles thick.
The space probe(探测器), Galileo went to Jupiter. For almost eight years, it helps scientists learn about Jupiter’s storms and moons.

【推荐3】Last year, a group of elephants made a decision（决定）: go north! After months of traveling, they made it 500 kilometers away from their home in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan. And it seems that they are not going to stop their trip anytime soon.
“Asian elephants often stay in one place. We seldom see them travel such a long way,”said Chen Mingyong, a teacher at Yunnan University.
Scientists are still not sure why they are doing this. Some believe it’s because they are looking for better food. According to Zhao Huaidong from the International Fund for Animal Welfare, the number of Asian elephants is going up because of human protection efforts（努力）. So their old homes may not have enough food for them. At the same time, the crops（庄稼）, vegetables and fruit that people grow also make elephants more interested.
Another reason（原因）, according to Chen, is that they have lost their way.

Homework is necessary for most students, one that can take three to four hours every night.

Club activities, sports, computer-game playing, and TV viewing, for example, all make students have less time having less time for both homework and sleep.
