How’s everything at grandpa’s farm?
I am having a great time here at “Zirka”. I arrived at this summer camp last week. The weather here is great! It is always hot and sunny. We play different games, eat great food, see interesting places and there is the sea! Every day we go to the beach. Some campers want to swim but my friends and I play volleyball. This is my favorite sport. I love it!
In the photo, you can see me and my friends. It is from our volleyball game last Monday. I’m wearing a red T-shirt and black shorts. My friend Mario is wearing an orange T-shirt and blue shorts. We’re jumping to hit the ball. My friend Clark is wearing a grey T-shirt and blue shorts. And my friend Dave played with us that day. But you can’t see him in this picture. Our group played very well in that game! I like this picture very much. I wish I could visit camp “Zirka” next summer and see my friends again!
Say hello to Dad and Mum for me.

Spiderman was created (被创造) in 1962. It is a story about a shy and silent high school student, Peter Parker. After being bitten (被咬) by a strange spider, Peter finds himself with super powers. Great power also comes great responsibility (责任). Peter keeps fighting against evil men who want to harm people.
Spiderman is more like a friendly neighborhood student rather than a super hero. He also experiences difficulties with friends and family.
In short, Spiderman remains everyman (普通人), “the super hero who could be you”. It is Spiderman’s simple humanity (人性) that helps him win millions of fans across the world.

To be thankful is a powerful way to turn around your thinking. Being thankful will always allow a person to see what is good or even great about their situation instead of feeling upset and sad. Therefore, it is important to teach children about the power of being thankful. First, help your children to notice and be thankful for all the fun things that life has offered. Point out the beauty of the nature from the birdsong and the trees to the high mountains and rivers of their country. Second, thank your children when they do the something kind or other good. Parents should be a model by showing their thanks for small kindness. Thank your friends, husband, wife or other people in front of your children. That will make them keep doing good things. Third, tell your children that they have the power to turn bad things into happiness simply by paying attention to the bright side. When they complain about the windy or rainy days, help them to be thankful for what they have. They are in a safe and comfortable environment away from the rain. They are able to do many fun things such as reading books, watching a movie, drawing pictures, playing with friends. Last but not least, tell them often that money doesn’t buy happiness, but their thankful attitude (态度) does. They will be happy if they choose to be thankful.

Hello, everyone!
My name is Xue Ba. It’s my honor to share some of my experience with you. I think I have always dealt with my junior life well. Not only can I get good grades, but also I can live a full and meaningful life. Some of my experience is as follows.
Have a clear life goal. I have always wanted to enter Tsinghua University and get an excellent education, so I know I should take every single day seriously. That’s why I can keep working hard without getting tired.
Have a good time management. For each person, we have 24 hours every day. What makes a difference is the way we use it. I always value my time and make good use of every minute. As a matter of fact, I often do my homework between classes and almost all the homework can be done before evening comes. As for the time I save up, I spend it doing some extra (额外的) exercises or reading some good books my Chinese teacher recommends (推荐). Actually, I am the best at writing in my class. I think reading helps a lot.
Do sports. I spend about 20 minutes doing sports every day. I think it is very important for us. I can build up my body by doing that. I am now the tallest and strongest boy in my class. What’s more, I always become full of energy after doing sports.
Develop at least one healthy habit. I can play several musical instruments such as the violin, erhu and the piano, but my favorite is drums. Whenever I feel stressed out, I will play the drums and that always helps me cheer up once more. I strongly suggest everyone develop a healthy habit to help you deal with stress when necessary.
That’s all I want to share with you. I hope it can be of some help. Let’s all try our best to live our junior life without regrets.
1. Which university does Xue Ba wish to enter?2. What does Xue Ba do with the time he saves up?

In 2022, a Japanese company (公司) called SkyDrive showed its new flying car, the SD-03. During the test flight, the small car flew for four minutes, staying about 3 to 6 feet off the ground.
The SD-03 has a few motors (发动机). The batteries (电池) make it work. A pilot was on the flying car, so it made this test flight special.
People hope flying cars will be useful for short trips like taxi rides in cities in the future.
Of course, safety is a big problem. What will happen when a motor doesn’t work? The accident (事故) may hurt both the people in the car and people on the ground. That’s why the SD-03 has eight motors as backups (后备).
Some people believe flying cars will help people save lots of time. However, there is a difficult problem for humans. People will need new systems (系统) to help solve traffic problems in the air.
Finally, flying cars also use more energy than cars.

Hello, everyone. My name
Apple’s first watch can not only tell you the right time, the smart watch also has a set of technology that can collect a lot of health data (数据). When you have been sitting too long, it will “hit” you on the wrist (手腕) 10 minutes before the top of the hour.
“A lot of doctors believe that sitting is a new illness.” Apple’s CEO Tim Cook said.
Many workers used the Apple Watch first. Then, Apple started selling the Apple Watch in April 2015. “We have a lot of meeting and a lot of workers,” Cook said, “and ten minutes before the hour, the watch will hit you and everybody will start standing up.”
“It took some time to get used to, but it’s actually really excellent.” He said.
Users have the chance to share their health data with doctors. And people believe it makes them healthier.
1. Besides telling you the right time, what can the smart watch do?2. What do a lot of doctors think about sitting?
3. When did Apple start selling the Apple Watch?
