Copenhagen is a city full of fairy tales (童话故事). If you want to explore it, you have to spend a long time and walk slower to enjoy yourself.
Copenhagen was the first city to have a street for walkers only. The city has less traffic noise and pollution (污染) than any other European capital.
Walking along the river banks, you’ll see the Amalienborg Palace first. The king’s family is living there.
Churches and castles show us the original (最初的) city. Copenhagen became the capital of Denmark in 1445. But fires in 1728 and 1795completely destroyed (摧毁) the old wooden buildings. Much of what we see today dates back to (追溯到) the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Keep going, and you’ll see the Christiansborg Palace. The town of Copenhagen began there. Then you will see Nyhavn, a waterway, which was dug (挖) in 1673. When you see it, you’ll understand why Hans Christian Andersen made this beautiful waterway his home. Nyhavn is a peaceful and wonderful place. You’ll usually see some rich people walk along here.
Welcome to Copenhagen and enjoy the old trees, the colourful lights and the beautiful gardens. You might feel as if you were in a fairy tale.

【推荐1】Labor classes at school can help students be active, creative (有创造力的) and happy in life. At the same time, students can learn the meaning of labor. So from this September, students in middle school will have at least one labor class a week.
There are many interesting labor classes now. Students from a school in Chongqing had a class about catching fish in the river and learning about their habits. In Shanxi Province, students made tofu with beans. They also cooked it by themselves. The labor classes made them feel happy when they cooked delicious meals. Some students also kept small animals at home like chickens. This helped students learn how to care for living things and also made them more interested in biology.
According to the new policy (政策), middle school students need to learn the following skills in labor classes: clean their rooms and classrooms, pick proper (合适) clothes for travel, cook three or four meals, and take part in labor activities such as planting or fishing.
A study shows that doing labor work is good for students. The students can get more self-control, do better in school, and feel happier from it. Labor classes not only teach them important skills but also are a great way to relax during a busy school day. So which kind of labor skill do you want to learn most?

【推荐2】With schools closed and restrictions (限制) on public activities, it can be a difficult time for young people, who suddenly can't spend time with their friends and family in person.
However, the situation has already led to some creative ways of using technology to keep in touch with (与……保持联系) those people, from video calls and group chats (聊天) to online games. Experts say that young people may find the social restrictions on seeing their friends in real life stressful, which is why technology can be helpful.
"Keeping relationships is very important for health," says Dr. Amanda Gummer. She adds that this is more important the older you get. "Not keeping good friendships will make school life more difficult for young people when they return to school," she says. "Staying connected to those we care about is even more important now than ever before."
Video chats are a great way to keep connected with your wider friendship group," says Gummer. Experts agree that there are plenty of ways to be creative with video chats besides talking to friends. She suggests taking turns to teach friends something you're really good at-such as painting and drawing, perhaps. She also thinks that online games can play a really good role.
It's good to play together. It's social, and it also helps us develop different skills.

【推荐3】Many countries have different ideas about different animals, but when we talk about pigs, we may have the same idea of them — the pigs are ugly, lazy and stupid.
Just look at the idioms in Chinese. We have “Boiling a dead pig” and “A pig looking in the mirror is still a pig.” And in English, they have “eating like a pig” and “sweating like a pig”. None of them are good.
In fact, there are some good things about pigs.
First, pigs are not stupid (愚蠢的). Their EQ is like dogs and chimpanzees (黑猩猩). They can remember things for a long time. And some pigs can learn things from people.
Second, pigs are very clean animals. On farms, they live in dirty places, so they are very dirty. In the wild (野外), pigs are very clean.
Third, pigs are very friendly animals. Some people keep them as pets. Of course, people keep the small kind, not the big kind. Small pigs are very cute.
There are cute pigs in cartoons, too. Peppa Pig, for example, a UK cartoon, becomes popular in many countries. The four pigs in the cartoon teach children about love, friendship and family. In China, we have McDull, a pig who works hard to make his dream come true.
1. What can we know from the first two paragraphs?| A．Pigs like looking in a mirror. | B．People likes talking about pigs. |
