【推荐2】To-wit-to-woo, to-wit-to-woo! What’s that strange sound coming from the forest in the moonlight? It’s an owl, of course!
All day long, seated comfortably on a tree, the owl is sleeping or at least he’s trying to snooze, because it’s sometimes hard to close the eyes with all the sounds made by the little birds and animals in the forest! The owl hunts only at night. When evening comes, the animals all get to a safe place. The owl opens its big, round eyes. Any little animal around had better watch out! The owl mostly eats small animals like mice, but it wouldn’t say no to another bird, if it gets the chance!
The owl uses its fantastic hearing to find its food, and then it turns its head from side to side, using its sharp eyes to follow the animal. Finally, it flies down to get the animal. Owls have special, soft feathers, so they can fly without making any sound. Owls are such good hunters that they can even catch a fly in the air!
The owl is quiet most of the time, except when you get too close to its home. The owl is a great mother, who will protect her babies by opening her feathers angrily. An owl will even hurt people if she thinks her babies are in danger!
An owl has no teeth, so it eats an animal whole. All the parts of the animal that the owl can’t digest (消化) will end up as small pieces. If you find these small pieces, you know you are near an owl’s home.

【推荐1】①Have you watched the recent TV Three-Body? Changed by Liu Cixin’s science book The Three-Body Problem, the show is very popular with people. One of the most exciting part must be Operation Guzheng(“古筝行动”).
②In order to find the important information on a huge ship, people plan to cut the ship into pieces. They set up many thin strings(线) across the river, which are made by high technology. Looking like Guzheng, the strings quietly cut the steel ship into pieces as if the ship was soft tofu!
③Is it possible to cut ships with thin strings in real life? In fact, strings are very good at cutting. For example, the egg cutting machine uses thin strings to cut eggs into pieces. A kite line can easily hurt people if it gets circle around their necks. This is because the thin strings have a very small contact area(接触面积), leading to a high intensity of pressure(压强) when they cut things.
④In the program, the strings are as thin as human hair. To cut the ship, the pressure needs to be 200 MPa(兆帕斯卡,压强单位). How strong is that pressure? Imagine an elephant standing on a string! In real life, scientists won’t be able to make such thin strings that wouldn’t easily break, at least for years to come. The cutting will also create lots of heat. We don’t have the things to bear that high temperature while it’s also thin enough to cut through. It’s still far away from the technology in the program.

【推荐3】Have you ever shown your photos on your favorite social media (媒体)? Or have you expressed your feelings on your online page? If yes, do you know what you have posted on the social medias can cause problems you could not expect?
Cathy, who is going to be fifteen, posted online an invitation to her birthday party with her address in it. And guess what! 500 people came to the party, and some even broke the windows and plants, making a total mess of the house. The girl’s birthday party turned into a nightmare (噩梦).
Many teenagers (青少年) think they know everything about social media, and that such a thing could never happen to them. Studies show that each year more than three million young people in the world get into trouble because of their online activities.
So do remember these if you really want to share something online.
Share with care! Not everyone will like what you write online. Think before you post anything. You never know who sees your texts, pictures or videos. Before clicking “post”, you should ask yourself, “How will I feel if my family or teachers see this?” and “How might this post be bad for me in five or ten years from now?”
Be polite when you write! No one likes it when you “shout” in your messages. If you feel angry while you’re writing a message, wait a bit. Read it again later and then send it.
Protect and respect! Never share your passwords with anyone. It’s not wise to post your home or email address online. Don’t say bad things about people.
I’d say none of these things promises 100% online safety, but each will help you to be safer.
