It was a cold and snowy morning after the winter vacation. Actually, it was my first day at my new school. I was walking slowly and worrying about lots of things. It was 7:00 in the morning and there weren't many people on the road. A girl on a bike passed me quickly. She was riding on ice when suddenly she fell off her bike a few steps in front of me. She was trying hard to get up but fell once more. Without thinking, I went over and helped her stand up. She said, "Thank you," with a smile and then rode away. The words "Thank you" warmed me and this small event made me feel less nervous about my new school.

Finally, I got to school. The teacher led me to the classroom and asked me to sit down beside a girl. I was so nervous. I knew some of the students were looking at me but I didn't dare to look at them. Soon the first class started. It was English. They used a different textbook from my old school and I didn't have a copy. As I was wondering what to do, a book appeared in front of me. “Let's share,” the girl next to me said."

My dad has always spent his free time climbing mountains.

For example, he always chooses the most difficult path up the mountain, so that he can achieve something.

When we were coming down, we met another family with two young girls, who must have been just behind us.

I'm now 15 and I belong to a climbing club. Dad always hoped to pass on his love of climbing to me. It seems that he has. I already spend most of my weekends in the mountains. Sometimes dad comes too, but now I'm the one out in front, and he can't always catch up with me!

Two little girls,14—year—old Cindy and 12—year—old Lucy, wrote to a newspaper office, asking some fast food restaurants to stop giving away free plastic(塑料) toys. Many people read the letter and supported them.

“We like to go to eat in fast food restaurants, but children only play with the plastic toys they give us for a few minutes before they get thrown away. In the end, they will harm animals and pollute the sea. We want anything they give us to be sustainable (可持续发展的), so we can protect the earth for us and for future humans,” they continued.

The letter made a large number of readers pay attention to them. The number of people who supported them almost doubled after reporters followed the two little girls.

There are some famous buildings that everyone can recognize (识别).When you see a picture of a sports stadium that reminds you of a bird 's nest(鸟巢), you probably know it is the Olympic stadium in Beijing. When you see a picture of a famous concert hall that reminds you of a sailing ship, you probably know it is the Sydney Opera House in Australia. Buildings like these are easily recognized worldwide.

Other buildings do not need any imagination. They are made to look exactly like other things. Sometimes, these buildings are offices, restaurants, or even houses.

From far away, the nine—storey teapot—shaped museum looks like some kind of huge work of art. But as one gets closer, the windows make it clear that this is a building.

People who are interested in guitars might want to visit the Guitar Museum in the USA. The three—storey building is shaped like a guitar lying on its side. Inside, visitors can see all kinds of guitars as well as learn about famous guitar players.

One of the newest funny—shaped museums is a pottery (陶器) museum in Korea. This museum, built in 2011, is shaped just like a real pot. Along with seeing examples of pots and tools used for making pots in the museum, visitors can try to make their own pots there.
