I'm Jim. Last week, we had a labour class. The teacher left homework for the class, so I asked three of my dad's friends how to make some wonderful dishes.

How Was it Made?

How was this ice cream sandwich made?

This sandwich wasn't made of bread! It was made of two cookies and some ice cream. First, I got a

round pot of ice cream and cut it into four pieces. Then I put each piece of ice cream onto a big cookie. Finally, I put another cookie on the top. It was so delicious.

—From Uncle Paul

How was this egg made?

Well, I used one little trick. Before I put the egg in the pan, I cut a large onion with a knife. Then, I took the largest ring of the onion and added it to the frying pan. Next, I put the egg into the onion ring to make it into a circle. The last thing I did was to make sure the egg looked happy!

—From Uncle Mike

How were these caterpillars(毛毛虫) made?

Don't worry. These aren't real caterpillars! And they're perfect if you like healthy snacks. To make a caterpillar, first, put six grapes on a stick and add eyes. Then put the caterpillars in a dish in the fridge. I waited for about an hour and the caterpillars were ready! I took the caterpillars to a picnic and my friends said they were delicious.

I have lived in China for six years, but still think the country is mysterious. So I made up my mind to go on a 3-month cycling journey to discover more.

The beauty of nature was fantastic. It simply took my breath away when I cycled on the way.

With thick forests, blue lakes and green hills, there was so much to see.

The food was the other highlight of my journey. No matter how much I ate, I never got sick of having different Chinese foods. There were so many different choices.

The best part was about people. I met people from different ethnic minorities(少数民族) across China and I was even invited to attend a wedding by some girls in Xizang. The wedding was amazing, full of dancing, laughter and fun.

Another example was impressive. When I met a group of cyclists in their 60s, they cycled better than me. It really encouraged me to push myself and go farther every day. Also, an experienced cyclist saved me when I got a flat tire(爆胎). He helped fix my tire.

By the end of my journey, I wanted to keep going. I felt like I could do it forever. If anyone wants to explore in China, I would highly recommend going by bicycle.

Think about how much time you spent outside last week. Really "outside". Walking from the car into the mall doesn't count.

You may say, "I play inside more than outside and I like to watch TV and play games on the computer."

If so, it's likely that you spent more time inside four walls than outside in fresh air.

Play is important, even for adults. ________________

Outdoor activities better your senses. The next time you sit down to message your friends, take note of your senses during and after your texting. Then do the same experiment after you've done something outside. You will find being outdoors brings the senses to life. "Hiking, exploring and fishing help hone all of your senses," says a professor of exercise and sports sciences.

Outdoor play frees your mind. Are you stressed out? Having trouble devoting your mind to what you're doing? Too much time indoors—away from the natural world—may be a cause. Louv uses a term to
