【推荐2】I am Greek, and my family go to Greece every summer. Uncle Spyro and Aunt Aspa lived about 45 minutes outside of Athens. Every summer when we travelled to Greece, we would spend a couple of days with them.
I remember all the fun things we would do there. We would shake almonds (杏仁) off of the branches of Uncle Spyro’s almond trees. Using his strong arms, he would break the shells off, and present us with the shiny white nut. With Aunt Aspa, we would pick lemons off her lemon trees and carry them inside the small house with the help of Uncle Spyro. Drinking the fresh lemonade and eating the delicious almonds, we would sit on the porch and talk. Uncle Spyro and Aunt Aspa didn’t speak English, and my Greek wasn’t and still isn’t perfect. But those peacefully quiet time on the porch were the time that I miss most.
Uncle Spyro developed cancer from smoke for most of his life and he became very sick. We didn’t go to Greece in 2009, but we planned on going again in 2010. But just in the late spring of 2010, we found out that Uncle Spyro was in the hospital shortly before we left for Greece. My mother, Alethea, and I wanted to see him. But he passed away before we could get there. We were deeply grieved to hear the news. Now, I wish that we had seen him for the last time. But my uncle didn’t wait for us to go.
We still visit Aunt Aspa and we still pick almonds and lemons. We still drink the fresh lemonade and eat the delicious almonds on the porch. But somehow the lemonade isn’t as fresh, and the almonds aren’t as delicious as before.
I think I’m still here to comfort Aunt Aspa and that I’m still here to finish my life. I’m not afraid of death any more like some people. And I know that when I do die, I’ll just be going up to Uncle Spyro, and we’ll eat almonds and drink lemonade, just like before.

【推荐3】When Matthew gets to the station, there is only one person there, a little girl about eleven years old. When she sees Matthew, she smiles. Then she puts out her hand. "Are you Mr. Matthew Cuthbert?" she asks. "I'm from the orphanage（孤儿院）. Mrs. Spencer brings me here."
Matthew takes the child's hand. "There's something wrong," he thinks. "We asks Mrs. Spencer for a boy, not a girl. But I can't leave this child at the station." So Mathew drives home with the girl. The child talks and talks. Matthew is usually afraid of little girls. But he likes listening to this girl's conversation.
When they gets home, Matthew's sister Marilla looks at the child in surprise. She asks, "Where's the boy?"
"There isn't a boy," says Matthew unhappily. "There is only her."
"No boy!" says Marilla. "But we ask for a boy!"
"She's a very nice girl," says Matthew slowly, "and very interesting. She likes to talk. And she wants to stay with us."
"But, Matthew, she can't stay here," Marilla says. "A girl can't help you on the farm."
"You don't want me!" cries the child suddenly, "You don't want me because I'm not a boy! Oh, what can I do?”
"Don't cry," says Marilla. “You can stay here this evening. What's your name?”
"Anne." answers the girl.
"Anne is a good name. Now come and eat something, Anne." says Marilla.
The next day, Marilla takes Anne to the orphanage. On the way, Anne tells Marilla her story. Marilla feels sorry for Anne. Her life is very difficult. Nobody wants her or loves her.
When Marilla meets Mrs. Spencer, she tells her about the problem.
"I'm very sorry," answers Mrs. Spencer, "I have an idea. My friend Mrs. Blewett wants a girl to help her. Anne can go and live with her.”
Marilla knows about Mrs. Blewett. She isn't very kind to children.
"Look!" says Mrs. Spencer, "Here's Mrs. Blewett now."
Mrs. Blewett looks at Anne for a long time. She doesn't smile. "She isn't very strong.” she says. "She has to work hard.”
Marilla looks at Anne's face. “_________” she thinks.
"Wait," she says. "I have to talk with my brother, Matthew. He wants Anne to stay with us.”
Anne looks at Marilla in surprise. Then she jumps up and runs across the room. “Can I really stay with you?" she asks.
"Yes," says Marilla, “Now sit down and be quiet."

【推荐2】As people use computers to store information, are they remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why do you store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts(专家) are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow did some experiments（实验）. She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a computer folder. Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. However, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive memory (交互记忆)".
According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize much information so that they are able to find it later. This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.

【推荐3】Have you ever had a dream about travelling to another planet in our solar system? If you have, there is a real programme that is happening right now, and it hopes to send people to Mars in 2023.
Known as the Mars One Mission, it will send a crew of four people on a one-way mission to colonize (开拓殖民地) Mars. Those chosen people will have to be ready to say good-bye to Earth forever, as there will not be a return trip.
For the people chosen, they will have to learn to do many different things. First of all, they will be living the rest of their lives with just a handful of other people, so they all must have personalities that allow them to get along. Second, the living quarters that they will have won’t be very spacious, so they will have to deal with that living condition as well. If they are feeling homesick, they will only be able to communicate with people back on Earth through e-mail and videos and audio sent back or forth. However, there won’t be any real-time communication. Even at a speed of light, communication between Earth and Mars take about 20 minutes. Whether the Mars One Mission will happen is the big question that a lot of people are asking.
There is many doubts in the science community and Wired magazine gave the mission a miserable score of two out of ten on its possibility. However, for those who dream to go to Mars, at least they can say there is a possibility that it could happen.

【推荐1】The two sessions (NPC, CPPCC) (两会) are China’s key annual political gatherings. During the two sessions, our government will look back at its work over the past year and suggest new policies for the next year. Many big decisions, like making and changing laws and electing national leaders, are discussed and decided.
Usually held in March, this year’s two sessions have been postponed due to the novel coronavirus outbreak. The date has been set at a time when the spread of novel coronavirus has been mostly kept under control in China.

Postponing the two sessions is unusual in the country’s history. However, after considering the situation in March, the government pointed out that the most important was epidemic control and to ensure public safety, People’s Daily reported.
For this year’s sessions, issues like China’s GDP target will still be discussed, People’s Daily reported. Due to the outbreak, China’s GDP fell by 6.8 percent year-on-year in the first quarter of 2020. Helping economic development will be one of the main goals of the government’s work for the rest of the year.
Public health is expected to be discussed. A large amount of public health-related laws is in the making, Xinhua reported.
China has a public health legal system that is made up of over 30 laws. But the novel coronavirus epidemic has shown some problems with these laws. They need revision and improvement.
