WALL CHART OR CALENDAR?
Generally I like the new look, but where is the wall chart (挂历)? I’ve been getting Astronomy Now for some years and always looked forward to the yearly wall chart. It helps to look and plan ahead. Everybody nowadays produces a calendar.
Yours very disappointed,
Ian Shering

Meanwhile, I’m enjoying the changes you have made to the magazine. Keep up the good work!

Stuart: You’ve read our minds, Malcolm! If you didn’t spot it already, turn to page 72 for some tips on getting starting with a Smartscope. We also featured them in our 2026 Yearbook, and we are indeed planning more articles to help you get the most out of them.

Every Friday afternoon, a corner of our school art room became a repair studio. Students brought things that were too useful to throw away but too damaged to use easily, a shirt with a 10m pocket, a pencil box without a handle, an old cloth bag from a grandparent. A useful object can carry beauty without looking new. The aim was not to make everything perfect. It was to let care become noticeable, even when the repair mark stayed on the surface.
In the first lesson, our art teacher began with a small blue patch (补丁) from her hometown. Its pattern was simple, but each line had been made by hand. It was not a museum lesson, but the objects made history feel close. Students who had thought “traditional craft (手艺) ” meant something far from daily life began to ask how people learned these skills and why families kept them.
The most successful repairs began with careful looking. Before touching needles or glue, groups described the material, the weak point and the story behind the object. One group found that a schoolbag kept tearing because heavy books pulled on one narrow strap (背带) . Their new patch was not placed over the hole only; it also spread the weight across a wider area.
The project also changed how students talked about jobs. A designer needed imagination, but also respect for the user. An engineer had to think about strength and shape. A craftsperson made decisions with both hands and eyes. These ideas helped students see that good work is rarely just fast work.
At the exhibition, no object looked exactly new. Bright thread crossed dark cloth, and a wooden box showed a smooth line where it had been joined. Nobody asked which piece had cost the most. Students were surprised to find that patience had become a shared skill. They had not only repaired objects; they had practised a way of seeing the world. What is old or broken may still be worth time, thought and a second chance.
4. What is the main purpose of setting up the repair studio?
A. To collect worn things. B. To show the warmth of care.
C. To teach students repair skills. D. To make broken items look new.
5. What change did the first lesson bring about in the students?
A. They grew interested in crafts. B. They learned more traditional crafts.
C. They considered patches artistic. D. They better understood the museum’s history.
6. Why is the schoolbag repair mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. To describe the basic repair steps. B. To stress the advantage of teamwork.
C. To prove the value of careful observation. D. To introduce common damage to schoolbags.
7. What might be the best title of this text?
A. Tiny Patches, Big Dreams B. Lost Crafts, New Skills Gained
C. Quick Fixes, Lasting Values D. Old Repairs, New Views of Life
C
Recent research has found that the wastewater from washing machines is the biggest source of microplastic fibers (纤维) in waterways. Beizhan Yan, an expert in plastic identification, also noted these fibers had been discovered in the ocean. “If we don’t deal with them, they will end up in our food chains and cause trouble,” said Yan. “I was really interested to see if we could solve the problem at the source.”
So Yan started his research from the laundry room, the place where people wash clothes. An average three-pound load of clothes loses hundreds of thousands of microfibers into the sewer system (污水系统), where they flow directly past water chemical treatment plants and enter river and ocean ecosystems. In the U.S., most treatment plants are designed to reduce organic material in the water, said Yan, and are not good at removing a great number of man-made particles such as microplastics. Unlike natural fibers which completely break down, these man-made materials stay in the environment forever.
To address the problem, Yan and a team of researchers are developing and testing a water filtration (过滤) system to trap microfibers before they leave the washing machine. The project, funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, launched in 2023 and will run through 2026.
One of the greatest challenges of the project will be to develop a filtering system that can not only find and take out the microfibers, but also process a great deal of water at a fast rate. “The filters work well at the beginning, but then they slowly get worse and worse because they’re just catching everything and clogging themselves up,” he said. “So one of the biggest problems we’re trying to solve is how you unclog them.”
The technology will serve to keep microfibers out of the sewer system but will also contribute to a circular economy. When dried out, the microfiber pollutants from each cycle will be like a thin cake-like plate that can be recycled to produce more clothes.
8. Why are the microplastic fibers difficult to remove in paragraph 2?
A. They are too tiny to catch. B. They are not the real target.
C. They tend to float on the water surface. D. They can’t flow through sewer pipes.
9. What is Yan’s new system for?
A. Cleaning washing machines. B. Breaking down microfibers.
C. Catching microfibers inside washers. D. Processing chemicals in water.
10. What does the underlined word “clogging” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Blocking. B. Emptying. C. Breaking. D. Building.
11. What extra benefit does the technology bring according to paragraph 5?
A. Improving plastic production. B. Creating a new economic type.
C. Speeding up wastewater treatment. D. Recycling waste fibers for clothes.

A hundred years ago, Emily Post made good manners popular. Her bestselling book, Etiquette (1922) , presented the “basics of good behaviour” as modern and attractive, not old-fashioned. She offered practical advice.
Today, people are once again showing interest in politeness. Many online influencers offer lessons on table manners and digital etiquette. Videos with #Etiquette on TikTok have been viewed over 5 billion times. These influencers give tips on how to start meetings and how to leave group chats without being rude. Even traditional schools are updating their courses to fit today’s world. Interestingly, this growing interest comes at a time when most people think manners are worsening. In fact, 90% of parents think young people aged 6 to 18 lack respect.
However, what is regarded as politeness changes over time. Post once criticised (批评) those who called young people rude simply for not following older rules. Louise Mullaney, a language expert, explores this idea in her new book Polite. She points out that people always view language changes as a sign of falling standards, but she argues that such changes are a “natural and unavoidable part of language development”. For example, the old phrase “if it please you” from Shakespeare’s time was shortened to “please” by Post’s era, and now young people type “pls” on their phones often.
Now AI will change politeness once more. McKinsey, a consultancy, believes soft skills will become even more important in an age when AI can do much of the heavy analytical work. Good manners may become more appreciated. On the other hand, AI could also make people ruder — for example, children would shout orders at virtual assistants. These two opposite effects raise concerns about the future of human interaction (交流) .
Research shows that being polite to AI actually helps, while rude questions can cause chatbots to give wrong answers or miss important information. AI mirrors human receptiveness (接受度) to politeness, because it is trained on large amounts of data created by people. The research stresses the importance of treating AI with respect. So whether online or in real life, it always pays to be polite.
12. What can we learn about Emily Post’s book Etiquette (1922) from Paragraph 1?
A. It saw manners as old-fashioned. B. It gave practical etiquette tips.
C. It focused on unpopular old rules. D. It lacked modern behaviour guides.
13. Which proves people care about manners again according to Paragraph 2?
A. Etiquette videos gain huge views. B. Parents praise kids’ good manners.
C. Traditional schools add new subjects. D. Etiquette is a necessity for influencers.
14. What is Mullaney’s probable attitude towards language changes like “pls”?
A. Reserved. B. Worried. C. Uncertain. D. Approving.
15. What should we do when we interact with AI?
A. Require it to be totally honest. B. Give it orders in a loud voice.
C. Show it politeness and respect. D. Help it with analytical work.
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Give Your Feelings a Seat
Dealing with terrible feelings is never easy, especially for teenagers.
____16____ Facing it, many teenagers hurry to hide it, laugh it off, or blame (责怪) someone else. Yet a feeling is often trying to tell us something. When we slow down long enough to ask ourselves, we may realize what we need: rest, help, practice or a clearer boundary (边界) .
In my English class, our teacher introduced a “weather notebook”. We were asked to write three short lines: the name of one feeling, the moment it appeared, and one small action we chose. The page was private; no one had to read it aloud. ____17____ A boy who often wrote “angry” noticed that the word appeared before math exams. That is to say, he was not simply “a bad-tempered (脾气差的) person”; he was worried about failing.
The next lesson was to name feelings without judging them. Saying “I am nervous” can be changed into “Nervousness is here.” ____18____ With that distance, a student can breathe, ask for five minutes, or choose to begin with the easiest part of a task.
Some students preferred to escape into music, games or endless messages. ____19____ A feeling that is ignored often gets stronger. Listening to it early is usually kinder than fighting it late.
During group work, the teacher also asked us to practice “listening without correcting”. One student spoke for one minute, and the partner repeated the main idea before giving advice. ____20____ When a classmate said, “I felt left out,” the listener could answer, “You wanted to be noticed.” That simple reply did not solve everything, but it made the room feel safer.
A. Weather notebooks can clear up all bad feelings.
B. Naming the feeling gives the brain a little distance from it.
C. We also learnt listening differs from agreeing with everything.
D. The best way is to notice feelings briefly and then move on fast.
E. A strong feeling is not always a problem to be solved immediately.
F. Such small notes help students recognize their confusing feelings clearly.
G. Keeping busy may look useful, but it can hide what the feeling is trying to say.

Then, a chance trip brought me to Green Star, ___29___ a famous Esperanto pub.

Inside, it is a (n) ___31___ bar; neither the waiters nor regular customers know anything about Esperanto.
I ___32___ Esperanto’s past glory with some customers, but they soon ___33___ local topics. Walking out, I sighed: the dream seemed dead here. But I remembered the warmth at the conference, and I ___34___ those who still keep it alive. Unrealized dreams, I came to know, can still push us toward sincere ___35___ .

The cold wind hit sharply at Lily’s face us she stood at this bus stop, hugging her schoolbag close to her. Inside the bag was her art project—a watercolor painting of her grandma’s garden, which she had spent weeks working on. It was the most important art project the term, and she planned to give it to her grandma as a birthday gift this weekend.
Lily had moved to the city with her parents six months ago. leaving her grandma in their small hometown. She missed her grandma terribly, and the painting was her way of showing how much she cared. Every detail, from the pink roses by the fence (篱笆) to the old wooden bench (长凳) under the apple tree, was painted with great care.
Just as the bus pulled up, a sudden wind tore her schoolbag open. Before she could react, the painting fell out and went flying away in the wind. “No!” she cried out, rushing after it. The wind threw the painting around, and it eventually landed in a roadside puddle (水坑) . Lily slid to a stop, her heart suddenly heavy.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she picked up the wet painting. Part of the paper tore, and the paints ran and mixed into a dirty mess. All the bright lines and colors were completely lost. All her painstaking work was destroyed. She dropped onto the sidewalk, knees drawn to her chest, helplessness washing over her. With Grandma’s birthday just three days away, how could she possibly start all over again? Worse still, she had no spare art supplies at home. Was there any way to save the ruined piece?
Just then, a gentle voice pulled her out of her sadness. “Are you all right, honey?” Lily lifted her head and saw an elderly woman standing beside her. Dressed in loose, artistic clothes. she held a sketchbook (速写本) in hand, her kind eyes narrowing into a warm smile. Lily shook her head, too upset to speak a word, and handed her the ruined painting.

Every Friday afternoon, a corner of our school art room became a repair studio. Students brought things that were too useful to throw away but too damaged to use easily, a shirt with a 10m pocket, a pencil box without a handle, an old cloth bag from a grandparent. A useful object can carry beauty without looking new. The aim was not to make everything perfect. It was to let care become noticeable, even when the repair mark stayed on the surface.
In the first lesson, our art teacher began with a small blue patch (补丁) from her hometown. Its pattern was simple, but each line had been made by hand. It was not a museum lesson, but the objects made history feel close. Students who had thought “traditional craft (手艺) ” meant something far from daily life began to ask how people learned these skills and why families kept them.
The most successful repairs began with careful looking. Before touching needles or glue, groups described the material, the weak point and the story behind the object. One group found that a schoolbag kept tearing because heavy books pulled on one narrow strap (背带) . Their new patch was not placed over the hole only; it also spread the weight across a wider area.
The project also changed how students talked about jobs. A designer needed imagination, but also respect for the user. An engineer had to think about strength and shape. A craftsperson made decisions with both hands and eyes. These ideas helped students see that good work is rarely just fast work.
At the exhibition, no object looked exactly new. Bright thread crossed dark cloth, and a wooden box showed a smooth line where it had been joined. Nobody asked which piece had cost the most. Students were surprised to find that patience had become a shared skill. They had not only repaired objects; they had practised a way of seeing the world. What is old or broken may still be worth time, thought and a second chance.
4. What is the main purpose of setting up the repair studio?
A. To collect worn things. B. To show the warmth of care.
C. To teach students repair skills. D. To make broken items look new.
5. What change did the first lesson bring about in the students?
A. They grew interested in crafts. B. They learned more traditional crafts.
C. They considered patches artistic. D. They better understood the museum’s history.
6. Why is the schoolbag repair mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. To describe the basic repair steps. B. To stress the advantage of teamwork.
C. To prove the value of careful observation. D. To introduce common damage to schoolbags.
7. What might be the best title of this text?
A. Tiny Patches, Big Dreams B. Lost Crafts, New Skills Gained
C. Quick Fixes, Lasting Values D. Old Repairs, New Views of Life
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】文章讲述学校开设物品修补工坊活动,介绍修补过程、学生收获及其带给学生的生活与职业认知改变。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The aim was not to make everything perfect. It was to let care become noticeable, even when the repair mark stayed on the surface.(其目的不是让所有东西变得完美,而是让关怀变得显而易见,即便修补痕迹留在物品表面)”可知,开设修补工坊的主要目的是展现关怀的温暖。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Students who had thought “traditional craft (手艺) ” meant something far from daily life began to ask how people learned these skills and why families kept them.(那些曾认为“传统手艺”远离日常生活的学生,开始询问人们如何习得这些技能以及家庭传承它们的原因)”可知,第一课让学生对传统手艺产生了兴趣。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The most successful repairs began with careful looking.(最成功的修补始于细致的观察)”以及后文书包修补的具体案例可知,作者提及修补书包的例子,是为了证明细致观察在修补工作中的重要价值。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“They had not only repaired objects; they had practised a way of seeing the world. What is old or broken may still be worth time, thought and a second chance.(他们不仅修补了物品,还践行了一种看待世界的方式。老旧或破损的事物依然值得花费时间、心思,值得被重新善待)”可知,文章围绕修补旧物的活动展开,重点讲述该活动让学生对生活、事物产生全新的认知。因此最佳标题为“旧物修补,全新人生视角”。

Recent research has found that the wastewater from washing machines is the biggest source of microplastic fibers (纤维) in waterways. Beizhan Yan, an expert in plastic identification, also noted these fibers had been discovered in the ocean. “If we don’t deal with them, they will end up in our food chains and cause trouble,” said Yan. “I was really interested to see if we could solve the problem at the source.”
So Yan started his research from the laundry room, the place where people wash clothes. An average three-pound load of clothes loses hundreds of thousands of microfibers into the sewer system (污水系统), where they flow directly past water chemical treatment plants and enter river and ocean ecosystems. In the U.S., most treatment plants are designed to reduce organic material in the water, said Yan, and are not good at removing a great number of man-made particles such as microplastics. Unlike natural fibers which completely break down, these man-made materials stay in the environment forever.
To address the problem, Yan and a team of researchers are developing and testing a water filtration (过滤) system to trap microfibers before they leave the washing machine. The project, funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, launched in 2023 and will run through 2026.
One of the greatest challenges of the project will be to develop a filtering system that can not only find and take out the microfibers, but also process a great deal of water at a fast rate. “The filters work well at the beginning, but then they slowly get worse and worse because they’re just catching everything and clogging themselves up,” he said. “So one of the biggest problems we’re trying to solve is how you unclog them.”
The technology will serve to keep microfibers out of the sewer system but will also contribute to a circular economy. When dried out, the microfiber pollutants from each cycle will be like a thin cake-like plate that can be recycled to produce more clothes.
8. Why are the microplastic fibers difficult to remove in paragraph 2?
A. They are too tiny to catch. B. They are not the real target.
C. They tend to float on the water surface. D. They can’t flow through sewer pipes.
9. What is Yan’s new system for?
A. Cleaning washing machines. B. Breaking down microfibers.
C. Catching microfibers inside washers. D. Processing chemicals in water.
10. What does the underlined word “clogging” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Blocking. B. Emptying. C. Breaking. D. Building.
11. What extra benefit does the technology bring according to paragraph 5?
A. Improving plastic production. B. Creating a new economic type.
C. Speeding up wastewater treatment. D. Recycling waste fibers for clothes.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了洗衣废水是水道微塑料纤维最大来源,专家严北展研发洗衣机内置过滤系统拦截微纤维,同时攻克滤网堵塞难题,该技术还能回收废纤维重新制衣,助力循环经济。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“In the U.S., most treatment plants are designed to reduce organic material in the water, said Yan, and are not good at removing a great number of man-made particles such as microplastics. (在美国,大多数处理厂旨在去除水中有机物,并不擅长清理大量微塑料这类人造微粒)”可知,微塑料纤维难以被去除的原因是它们不是污水处理厂的主要处理目标。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“To address the problem, Yan and a team of researchers are developing and testing a water filtration (过滤) system to trap microfibers before they leave the washing machine. (为解决该问题,严及其团队研发测试一套过滤系统,在微纤维流出洗衣机前将其截留)”可知,这套新系统用于在洗衣机内部捕捉微纤维。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“The filters work well at the beginning, but then they slowly get worse and worse because they’re just catching everything and clogging themselves up,” he said. “So one of the biggest problems we’re trying to solve is how you unclog them.” (滤网初期效果良好,但随后效果持续变差,因为滤网会截留各类杂物____。他说:“我们亟待解决的一大难题就是疏通滤网。”)”可知,下句里unclog意为“疏通”,反向可推 clogging表示“堵塞,堵住”,与“Blocking(阻塞)”意义相近。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“When dried out, the microfiber pollutants from each cycle will be like a thin cake-like plate that can be recycled to produce more clothes. (每轮过滤收集的微塑料污染物烘干后,可制成薄如蛋糕片状的材料,回收用来制作更多衣物)”可知,这项技术额外的优势是回收废弃纤维再生产衣物。

A hundred years ago, Emily Post made good manners popular. Her bestselling book, Etiquette (1922) , presented the “basics of good behaviour” as modern and attractive, not old-fashioned. She offered practical advice.
Today, people are once again showing interest in politeness. Many online influencers offer lessons on table manners and digital etiquette. Videos with #Etiquette on TikTok have been viewed over 5 billion times. These influencers give tips on how to start meetings and how to leave group chats without being rude. Even traditional schools are updating their courses to fit today’s world. Interestingly, this growing interest comes at a time when most people think manners are worsening. In fact, 90% of parents think young people aged 6 to 18 lack respect.
However, what is regarded as politeness changes over time. Post once criticised (批评) those who called young people rude simply for not following older rules. Louise Mullaney, a language expert, explores this idea in her new book Polite. She points out that people always view language changes as a sign of falling standards, but she argues that such changes are a “natural and unavoidable part of language development”. For example, the old phrase “if it please you” from Shakespeare’s time was shortened to “please” by Post’s era, and now young people type “pls” on their phones often.
Now AI will change politeness once more. McKinsey, a consultancy, believes soft skills will become even more important in an age when AI can do much of the heavy analytical work. Good manners may become more appreciated. On the other hand, AI could also make people ruder — for example, children would shout orders at virtual assistants. These two opposite effects raise concerns about the future of human interaction (交流) .
Research shows that being polite to AI actually helps, while rude questions can cause chatbots to give wrong answers or miss important information. AI mirrors human receptiveness (接受度) to politeness, because it is trained on large amounts of data created by people. The research stresses the importance of treating AI with respect. So whether online or in real life, it always pays to be polite.
12. What can we learn about Emily Post’s book Etiquette (1922) from Paragraph 1?
A. It saw manners as old-fashioned. B. It gave practical etiquette tips.
C. It focused on unpopular old rules. D. It lacked modern behaviour guides.
13. Which proves people care about manners again according to Paragraph 2?
A. Etiquette videos gain huge views. B. Parents praise kids’ good manners.
C. Traditional schools add new subjects. D. Etiquette is a necessity for influencers.
14. What is Mullaney’s probable attitude towards language changes like “pls”?
A. Reserved. B. Worried. C. Uncertain. D. Approving.
15. What should we do when we interact with AI?
A. Require it to be totally honest. B. Give it orders in a loud voice.
C. Show it politeness and respect. D. Help it with analytical work.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文梳理了礼仪观念的百年变化,从Emily Post的礼仪著作讲到如今网络礼仪热潮,说明礼貌标准随时代自然演变,并探讨AI时代讲礼貌的双重影响,指出待人、待AI都应当保持尊重。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Her bestselling book, Etiquette (1922) , presented the “basics of good behaviour” as modern and attractive, not old-fashioned. She offered practical advice. (她的畅销书《礼仪》(1922 年版)将“良好举止的基本准则”诠释得新潮吸引人,而非陈旧过时,书中给出了实用可行的建议)”可知,这本书提供了实用的礼仪相关建议。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Videos with # Etiquette on TikTok have been viewed over 5 billion times. (TikTok带有#礼仪话题标签的视频播放量超50亿次)”可知,带礼仪话题的视频播放量极高,这能证明人们重新在意礼仪。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“she argues that such changes are a “natural and unavoidable part of language development (她认为这类变化是语言发展中自然且不可避免的一部分)”以及“For example, the old phrase “if it please you” from Shakespeare’s time was shortened to “please” by Post’s era, and now young people type “pls” on their phones often. (例如莎士比亚时代的古语if it please you,到波斯特的年代简化成了please,如今年轻人常在手机上简写为pls)”可知,Mullaney认为语言简化演变是正常现象,对此持赞同认可的态度。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Research shows that being polite to AI actually helps (研究表明,对人工智能保持礼貌是有益的)”与“The research stresses the importance of treating AI with respect. (该研究强调了以尊重的态度对待人工智能的重要性)”可知,我们和人工智能互动时应当礼貌、尊重地对待它。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Give Your Feelings a Seat
Dealing with terrible feelings is never easy, especially for teenagers.
____16____ Facing it, many teenagers hurry to hide it, laugh it off, or blame (责怪) someone else. Yet a feeling is often trying to tell us something. When we slow down long enough to ask ourselves, we may realize what we need: rest, help, practice or a clearer boundary (边界) .
In my English class, our teacher introduced a “weather notebook”. We were asked to write three short lines: the name of one feeling, the moment it appeared, and one small action we chose. The page was private; no one had to read it aloud. ____17____ A boy who often wrote “angry” noticed that the word appeared before math exams. That is to say, he was not simply “a bad-tempered (脾气差的) person”; he was worried about failing.
The next lesson was to name feelings without judging them. Saying “I am nervous” can be changed into “Nervousness is here.” ____18____ With that distance, a student can breathe, ask for five minutes, or choose to begin with the easiest part of a task.
Some students preferred to escape into music, games or endless messages. ____19____ A feeling that is ignored often gets stronger. Listening to it early is usually kinder than fighting it late.
During group work, the teacher also asked us to practice “listening without correcting”. One student spoke for one minute, and the partner repeated the main idea before giving advice. ____20____ When a classmate said, “I felt left out,” the listener could answer, “You wanted to be noticed.” That simple reply did not solve everything, but it made the room feel safer.
A. Weather notebooks can clear up all bad feelings.
B. Naming the feeling gives the brain a little distance from it.
C. We also learnt listening differs from agreeing with everything.
D. The best way is to notice feelings briefly and then move on fast.
E. A strong feeling is not always a problem to be solved immediately.
F. Such small notes help students recognize their confusing feelings clearly.
G. Keeping busy may look useful, but it can hide what the feeling is trying to say.

【答案】 Good morning, everyone! I’m honored to stand here and share my view on the topic: “Is money a servant or a master?”
In my opinion, money should be our servant instead of our master. It exists to satisfy our basic needs and bring warmth, rather than control our life.
Last winter, I used my pocket money to buy warm coats and stationery for poor kids in mountain areas. Seeing their big smiles, I truly realized money’s real value. If we chase money blindly, we will lose time with family and inner peace. We should take charge of money and use it to create happiness.
Thank you!

It was the most important art project the term, and she planned to give it to her grandma as a birthday gift this weekend.

The wind threw the painting around, and it eventually landed in a roadside puddle (水坑) . Lily slid to a stop, her heart suddenly heavy.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she picked up the wet painting. Part of the paper tore, and the paints ran and mixed into a dirty mess. All the bright lines and colors were completely lost. All her painstaking work was destroyed. She dropped onto the sidewalk, knees drawn to her chest, helplessness washing over her. With Grandma’s birthday just three days away, how could she possibly start all over again? Worse still, she had no spare art supplies at home. Was there any way to save the ruined piece?
Just then, a gentle voice pulled her out of her sadness. “Are you all right, honey?” Lily lifted her head and saw an elderly woman standing beside her.
