“Sure.”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Wang. I don’t know,” Xiao Yang says.

【推荐1】A primary school headmaster became the latest star on the Internet for dancing with his students.
Zhang Pengfei works in Xiguan Primary School in Linyi, Shanxi Province. Every morning, he leads 700 pupils to do the “ghost shuffle” routine(跳鬼步舞操) on the playground. They dance for 30 minutes every day. They like dancing more than doing the old exercise routine, so they don’t do the old one now.
“I thought we needed a change because the students lost interest in doing the old exercise routine though it was useful for pupils,” Zhang told the reporter. After all, they started to do the old exercise routine in 1951.
Mr. Zhang saw a group of people doing the routine by accident. Then he decided to learn it on his own. “I thought the dance would be great for kids,” he said. “The music is energetic and it really makes children relax.” In October 2018, he introduced the dance to all the pupils of his school. Soon even teachers and workers there joined in the activity, “Now the pupils don’t keep playing games on their phones. Sometimes they watch different dancing videos and learn new moves!” the headmaster said.

【推荐2】The classroom hummed (发低哼声) with the usual Monday morning activity.
Miss Eller called the students to Morning Meeting and watched while they got settled. Finally, she said, “Happy Monday morning, everyone.” A chorus of greetings came back.
“Today is a decision-making day,” Miss Eller announced. A few eyebrows raised. “Today, we’re ready to start a new unit.” Miss Eller made sure everyone was really tuned in. “Our new unit is the natural world,” said Miss Eller, and she wrote the words on the board. A hand raised.
“How do we choose our topic?” Zach asked.
“Ah, I’m glad you asked,” smiled Miss Eller. She circled her arms wide. “The natural world includes everything around us, and everything around other people, all over the world. That’s too much for us to learn about, so we need to narrow our topic down quite a bit.”
Kayla raised her hand. “Does that mean we have to pick one place in the world to learn about? I pick Alaska.”
“That’s the idea, Kayla, but even Alaska is a very big topic,” answered Miss Eller. “We would have to narrow that down even further. Yes, Zach?”
“Would a grasshopper’s (蚱蜢的) knees be narrow enough?” Everyone giggled (咯咯地笑).
“Well, that might be a little too narrow, but grasshoppers would be an excellent topic. I want all of you to think about one thing in the natural world that you want to learn about. We’ll talk about this again after lunch. Okay?” Everyone nodded.
“Now, whose turn is it to do the weather chart?” As Miss Eller started the daily routine (日常工作), twenty-two busy brains were thinking up ideas.

【推荐3】Dale was a young boy who had a talent for running. He was always trying to find someone to compete with. He was thirsty for success. For him, winning was everything, One day, two young boys accepted his challenge. A large crowd of students got together to watch. Dale’s PE teacher Mr. Smith was also among them. The race began. With strength(力量) and power, Dale won without any difficulty. The crowd cheered loudly. Dale felt proud and excited. However, Mr. Smith kept quiet.
“Another race, another race!” shouted Dale. Mr. Smith stepped forward and asked him to have a group competition. There should be a boy and a girl in each group, but the right leg of the girl and the left leg of the boy should be tied together. The race started and Dale tried his best to run fast. Unluckily, both Dale and the girl in his group fell down because the girl was not as fast as him. The crowd went silent.
Dale lay on the ground, looking at other groups passing by. The girl cried sadly. Dale helped the girl to stand up and said, “Cheer up! We may lose the race but we shouldn’t give up! Let’s work together to finish the race!” As they continued running to the finishing line, the crowd cheered loudly. Mr. Smith smiled, too. Though Dale’s group didn’t win the race, Dale was happy because he leaned a lot from it.
We need competitions in life. But being a real winner doesn’t always mean being the first. It also means never giving up even if there is no hope to be the first.

Do you know what family instructions are? They are common beliefs(信仰)that family members follow. In ancient China, people passed down their family instructions from generation to generation.
Some schools in Zhejiang are encouraging students to learn more about their own family instructions. At Hangzhou Gongyi Middle School and Hangzhou Xuejun High School, it was part of students’ winter vacation homework to learn about their family instructions.
Meng Yaohan, 16, from Hangzhou Xuejun High School, looked at her family instructions. One of them is “Don’t take the wrong way”, a piece of advice that has been passed down for 100 years. Her father told her how her grandfather stuck to his “right way”—to become an engineer.“It encouraged me to pursue what I love,” she said.
Shen Duanjie,14,from Hangzhou Gongyi Middle School, has got good from his family instructions—“democratic”(民主的) and “equal”. In his own words, they have helped him get along with his parents.
The school has also published(出版) books about two classic collections of family instructions—The Family Instructions of Zhu Xi and Family Instructions of Yan Clan. The books include dialogues and pictures drawn by students.
Gong Zhenyue, 14, drew pictures for one of the instructions in Family Instructions of Yan Clan. She was impressed(留下深刻印象) by the instruction, which says that parents should not only love their children, but also educate them. “It made me understand my parents’ strictness with me,” she said. She made it her own family instruction.

【推荐2】My husband Shane and I were hanging out on the street one evening. I was talking but he was looking over at someone.
He walked over to a young girl who was crying. As he talked to her, I could see from his body language that he was trying to calm (使平静) her down. When I joined them, I realized that she had been homeless for some time. She told Shane that all she wanted was to go to her sister’s house in another city.
Some people would have handed her some money, wished her lunch or maybe allowed her to make a call. Shane did much more. He said, “Kelly, I can’t leave her here like this. Sometimes people need someone not only to help them but to believe they’re telling the truth.”
It was a bit cold, so we had an idea to take her home. When I asked her if she’d like to go home with us, she thanked me about a million times with tears in her eyes.
We went home and I gave her some clean clothes to wear and told her she could use the shower. We are something. Finally, she told us her story.
The next morning, she was finally able to get a hold of her sister, so she had a place to go. Shane drove her to the bus station and bought her a ticket.
Sometimes what people need is not just money, but people who will trust, listen to and understand them.

Diwali is usually celebrated for 5 days.
