Do you know something about ants? There are over 15,700 kinds of ants almost everywhere on Earth. They usually live together in big family groups called colonies (蚁巢).
Ants work very hard together to make their homes. Each ant has a special job. Worker ants find food, build and clean homes, and look after babies. Soldier ants protect the colonies. The queen lays eggs to make new ants. They are well-organized and work as a team.
Ants are one of the most interesting animals in the world. One interesting thing is how they communicate. They use their antennae (触角) to touch, smell, and talk to other ants. Another is that ants are not as weak (虚弱的,无力的) as we think. They’re very strong. They can carry food 10-50 times ▲ than their own bodies!
Ants are important in the ecosystem of our planet. They dig tunnels (隧道), making soil (土壤) healthier for plants. They eat dead insects (昆虫) and plants, cleaning the environment (环境). Birds and frogs eat ants, so they are part of nature’s food chain (链). There is a funny fact: Ants can “predict” weather! If they build homes high up, rain might come; if they build low, dry weather is ahead.

In the books he predicted the earth of the future would have many TV stations and people would send TV programmes around the world. However, this was before TV as common at home!

How to Communicate with Others Better
Good communication helps us understand others and build strong friendships. But how to improve it?
* Listen carefully and express politely
Pay full attention when others speak. If you’re interested, nod or ask questions like, “Could you explain that again?” This makes people feel their talk is valued (被重视的). When you’re speaking, use polite ways, such as “I think...” or “Maybe we can...” It’s not polite to interrupt (打断); instead, give others time to share their ideas.
* Face-to-face matters
Talking in person helps you see facial expressions and gestures (手势), which makes communication clearer. Apps and videos are also the ways to communicate. But remember: Face-to-face conversations are more meaningful than texting! If you disagree, stay calm and find a solution (解决办法) together.
* Respect differences
Everyone has his or her own opinions. Try to understand others’ feelings instead of arguing. As the Chinese saying goes, “Kindness encourages more kindness.”
Conclusion
Practice these skills daily—in class discussions, group projects, or even family chats. Good communication makes the world friendlier!

Do you know something about ants? There are over 15,700 kinds of ants almost everywhere on Earth. They usually live together in big family groups called colonies (蚁巢).
Ants work very hard together to make their homes. Each ant has a special job. Worker ants find food, build and clean homes, and look after babies. Soldier ants protect the colonies. The queen lays eggs to make new ants. They are well-organized and work as a team.
Ants are one of the most interesting animals in the world. One interesting thing is how they communicate. They use their antennae (触角) to touch, smell, and talk to other ants. Another is that ants are not as weak (虚弱的,无力的) as we think. They’re very strong. They can carry food 10-50 times ▲ than their own bodies!
Ants are important in the ecosystem of our planet. They dig tunnels (隧道) making soil (土壤) healthier for plants. They eat dead insects (昆虫) and plants, cleaning the environment (环境). Birds and frogs eat ants, so they are part of nature’s food chain (链). There is a funny fact: Ants can “predict” weather!

①Are you curious about the future? What do you think our life will be like in 50 years or more? To answer this, you can read a sci-fi book. Today many young readers are interested in science fiction. But what makes it so popular?
②For one thing, science fiction gives us a chance to imagine what our future will be like. Some people think there will be flying cars and robot servants. Others believe we will learn more about aliens (外星人) and other planets.
③Another reason is that sci-fi writers and their work can inspire us to create the future. In 1945, a sci-fi author named Arthur C. Clarke wrote about a series (系列) of space stations in his books. In the books he predicted the earth of the future would have many TV stations and people would send TV programmes around the world. However, this was before TV as common at home! Now you see, we have realized all of these!
④Science fiction is also popular because it can make us think about our world in new ways. It can help us better understand the real world. It can also make us excited when we feel like we are living in a boring world.

How to Communicate with Others Better
Good communication helps us understand others and build strong friendships. But how to improve it?
* Listen carefully and express politely
Pay full attention when others speak. If you’re interested, nod or ask questions like, “Could you explain that again?” This makes people feel their talk is valued (被重视的). When you’re speaking, use polite ways, such as “I think...” or “Maybe we can...” It’s not polite to interrupt (打断); instead, give others time to share their ideas.
* Face-to-face matters
Talking in person helps you see facial expressions and gestures (手势), which makes communication clearer. Apps and videos are also the ways to communicate. But remember: Face-to-face conversations are more meaningful than texting! If you disagree, stay calm and find a solution (解决办法) together.
* Respect differences
Everyone has his or her own opinions. Try to understand others’ feelings instead of arguing. As the Chinese saying goes, “Kindness encourages more kindness.”
Conclusion
Practice these skills daily—in class discussions, group projects, or even family chats. Good communication makes the world friendlier!
