【推荐2】Frank Miller was born in Lodz, Poland. He came to China several years ago. So far, he has been working in Chengdu for four years.
“The Belt and Road is meaningful,” he said. “Thanks to it, we are offered more chances.” The most strongest support for Chengdu to thrive (兴盛) along the Belt and Road is the Chengdu-Europe express railway (铁路). It provides direct train services between Chengdu and the city of Lodz.
Because of the express railway, trains can bring things from China to Europe. At the same time, they can bring back European food, wine, meat and so on. In 2016, 460 trains ran between Chengdu and Europe. The number is expected to grow to 1,000 this year.
Since the Chengdu-Lodz express railway was opened, Chengdu, with other cities in west China, has developed close trade ties with the European countries. Poland is one of the largest apple producers in Europe. Frank's company helps farmers in Poland sell their apples to China. More and more European products will be sent to China in the future.

Some people have found that they always spend much more on travelling than planned.Here is how it happens：
1.Preparing too much before travelling
Some people,especially females,like to travel as if starting a new life.Several weeks before the trip,they would be busy shopping for new dresses,better sunglasses and bestselling books.They would rather fill their travelling bags up with all fashionable things.Just travelling？Attending a fashion show is more like it.They care more about their appearance than the sights they see during the trip.
2.Following other travellers blindly
They can't stop shopping for objects they would never normally buy and would certainly never use.For example,we can find a group of travellers “getting ahead” to buy “Christmas” presents even in summer.
3.Replacing things that are forgotten to bring
They don't remember to bring things like trainers,cool bags,toothbrushes or beach towels.The towels sold near beaches are nearly the price of gold leaves.They spend a lot on those things.However,plenty of new towels are sleeping in their bathroom at home.

How to save a life
The students at No 19 Middle School in Nanning, Guangxi were having a class. Suddenly, a curtain (窗帘) went on fire and the fire spread quickly. Some students were burned.
Not really! This was a fire drill (消防演习) that took place in the school on April 28. After the drill, experts from the Red Cross (红十字会) gave a lesson to 400 students on how to deal with some injuries, such as burns and bleeding (流血).
Every year in China, 1.2 million emergencies take place, according to Xinhua. These lead to at least 200,000 deaths and 1.7 million injuries. Experts say that the ten minutes after an accident are the most important moments for saving a life.
May 8 is World Red Cross Day. Let’s learn the steps for how to save lives.
When there is an accident, remember Dr ABC:
1. Danger – Check the area to see that you are not putting yourself or the hurt person in any more danger. For example, check that there are no loose electrical cables (松弛的电线).
2. Response (反应) – Call out to the hurt person or shake him or her to see if he or she is conscious (有意识的).
3. Airway (通风) – If the hurt person isn’t responding, tip back his or her head and open the mouth. Remove anything that might be blocking the airway.
4. Breathing (呼吸) – Put your ear to the person’s mouth to hear if he or she is breathing, and watch to see if his or her chest is rising and falling. If he or she is breathing, ensure that he or she is in a stable side position.
If he or she is not breathing, give him or her five full breaths in 10 seconds.
5. Circulation (血液循环) – Feel and look at the person to try and judge if his or her circulation has stopped. If he or she is cold, or has turned pale or blue, it is likely that there is no circulation.

Get out and explore
With summer here, we all want to get out of the house and enjoy the weather. But maybe picnics and badminton are not exciting enough. Would you like to try something more challenging?
If so, this section (板块) is for you! Here, TEENS writers and readers share their personal experiences on a range of (一系列) outdoor activities, from snorkeling to climbing rock faces to exploring caves deep under the ground.
Outdoor activities are more than just a fun way to pass the time in summer. Most activities have clubs and organizations where you can learn and share your knowledge with others. As a teenager, I was in the Scouts (童子军). Not only did I get outside and have adventures, but I also made some lifelong friends.
Outdoor activities challenge your body, but also your mind. You’ll have to organize and make plans, as well as analyze (分析) your environment. You will need to learn skills－making fires, tying knots (打结) and testing the wind－things you can’t just learn from a book. You also learn emergency procedures (操作步骤). Once, in Scouts, I was asked to plan meals for a camping trip, but forgot to plan cooking equipment (装备). We had to improvise (即兴发挥), with Frisbees as dinner plates!
Maybe most importantly, these outdoor activities will give you confidence in yourself and your abilities. As you use your skills and gain experience, things that seemed impossible and scary become simple. You will start to trust yourself and your intuition (直觉).
The best part? You can do these outdoor activities almost anywhere in the world, with new challenges in new environments. Wherever you go, you will have the skills to explore.
