【推荐3】Most of us have many pencils. But do you know how these common writing tools came into being?
It started in Rome
The first example of a pencil-type instrument probably came from ancient Rome. There, a thin piece of metal was used to draw onto an early form of paper. It was also used to write down numbers on the page.
England's find
Around 1564, graphite(石墨) was discovered near Cumbria, England. It was regarded as a perfect way to record their sheep at that time. But the graphite was very soft. So people provided it with a covering.
Italian changes
A couple from Italy thought of a better idea. They hollowed (掏空) out a wooden stick and then placed graphite stick inside it. This created a wooden holder for the graphite.
German improvements
In 1839, Germany's Lothar von Faber invented a way to make graphite sticks all the same. He also invented a machine to cut the pencil wood.
American production
By the late 1860s in America, pencils were in great need. American companies began designing machines to produce them. It helped meet the need and cut the cost of pencils by 50%.
Japanese ideas
In 1915, Japan's Tokuji Hayakawa created a mechanical pencil (自动笔) which was similar to one used now.
Today both kinds of pencils are very popular with the wooden pencil being number one. More than 6 billion wooden pencils are produced in 40 different countries each year.

【推荐1】The Pacific Ocean is the largest of the world’s four oceans. The Coral Sea (珊瑚海) is in the Pacific Ocean and is home to one of nature’s greatest wonders, the Great Barrier Reef (大堡礁). And the reef is now in danger.
It is the world’s largest coral reef system (系统). That is made up of almost 3, 000 different corals. The reef is home to 400 kinds of coral animals and over 2, 000kinds of fish. Much of the life in the ocean calls the reef home.
However global warming (全球变暖) is causing a worse condition in the Great Barrier Reef. Rising ocean temperatures cause coral to run out of the algae (海藻). The algae not only live in it, but also are the main food for the coral. Without it, the coral is still alive but is slowly becoming dead.
As even humans depend on coral reef systems for food, the death of the world’s largest coral reef system would be bad for the planet. Scientists hope they can help stop the global warming and protect nature’s wonders like coral reefs.
1. How many kinds of corals does the Great Barrier Reef have?A.About 3, 000. | B.Over 3000. | C.About 2, 000. | D.Over 2, 000. |
A.better | B.bigger | C.popular | D.worse |

【推荐2】There are many stories about the start of Nian. It is said that Nian was a fierce (凶猛的) monster. Usually it stayed deep in the mountains. But in winter, it couldn’t find enough food. So it entered villages to eat whatever it could catch. Villagers became frightened and moved away. Later the people found that Nian was afraid of three things—the red color, the bright fire and the loud noise. After learning this, they thought of how to prevent Nian from entering their villages. Thus, a tradition was established (获得认可). People had couplets (对联), lanterns and fireworks for the Spring Festival.
Now most people in the countryside still keep these traditional celebrations. However, the people in cities have used new ways to celebrate the Spring Festival. For example, they don’t send out so many greeting cards as before. Instead they usually send short text messages to greet friends on mobile phones. And for safety, fireworks were not allowed in some large cities a few years ago, making the cities much quieter than before. It seems that all Chinese traditions are facing new challenges. Maybe when the children of the next generation grow up, they can only learn about Chinese traditions from books.

【推荐2】We all know that many people like to go to the café (咖啡馆) and drink some coffee there. They can talk with other people and listen to music when drinking coffee. However, the “silent (沉默的) cafes” are very popular in Tokyo, Japan these days.
A young woman sits alone (单独地) in a cafe. She is drinking coffee and reading a book. After a while, she writes some words on the notebook and then she shows it to the waiter. It says “Where is the toilet (厕所), please?”
We can see many “silent cafes” in Tokyo. They look the same as other cafes. But people in “silent cafes” don’t speak. They can only talk with each other by writing on the notebook.
The “silent cafes” are very popular in Tokyo, because some people there are under too much pressure of work, and they need a place to relax themselves. They want to stay alone for some time, so they like to go to the “silent cafes”.
