We can't remember clearly since when we started to take our mobiles to a dinner table．．This
happens a lot，especially when we eat out．．Once a dish comes，instead of lifting our chopsticks，we take out our mobiles and click．．Later，we post the photos onto Weibo or Wechat，waiting to beliked．．Then we check our mobiles from time to time during the meal，to see whether we getlikedor not．．We just cannot leave our mobiles for only a meal．．
Does that sound familiar to you？Do you do that often？If not，how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you？
A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not so good．．Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant．．To test this，some researchers did an experiment．．Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food．．As a result，it showed that the more photos they took，So，why not stop taking photos and just enjoy the
food in front of you？
Besides the scientific result，there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals．．After posting the photos onto the Internet，one will not be able to control himself
and check his mobile many times．．Does everyone like my photos？I hope a lot of people like
them!It seems that your mobile secretly calls your name all the time，even when you are with real people．．
So，next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends，how about not taking photos of food？Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you．．Trust me，it will be a wonderful time．．

Swimming and English Learning
Can you swim? Do you like swimming? Yes? Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I'm afraid you'll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming. It's the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.
Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English-speaking countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn't matter. Just be relaxed, try to catch every word.
Somebody may be a good listener. But he dare not speak. He's afraid of making mistakes. You know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don't be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows English. Whether you know him or not is not important when there's nobody to talk with, you can talk to yourself in English. It's interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you'll make.
Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First we must choose the books we're interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most important.
Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines. Don't be afraid of failure. Failure is the mother of success.
Easier said than done. Well, let's do more practice from now on. I'm sure you'll learn English well in this way. 6.You can learn to swim by_______.
A. reading books about it.
B. looking at others swimming
C. having lessons on it.

A 14-year-old British student is packing for the next day of school: textbooks, notebooks, pens, 250 grams of flour, an egg and some cooking oil. Wait, what?
It's not a joke.
From September, cookery will be a compulsory (必修的) course for kids aged 7-14 in the UK.
Primary school students will learn how to put things together and make simple, healthy food. At high school, students will then master a number of different meals. They will also learn some cooking skills
including baking.
Britain is sometimes known as a country with bad food and unhealthy eating habits. These new courses are part of the country's effort to bring healthy food back onto the table.
“One in four British families no longer has a table that everyone can eat around. One out of every two meals we eat is eaten alone. Only four out of ten of us enjoy eating meals with our children,”British writer Joanna Blythman wrote in her book Bad Food Britain: How A Nation Ruined Its Appetite (食欲) in 2019.
Instead, ready meals have become the first choice for many British kids, because their parents are often too busy to cook a proper meal.
The Department for Education hopes that the cookery courses can introduce children to good food and reduce
childhood obesity.
“
It's important that children can develop an interest and understanding of good food,”said a spokesman for the department.
“We want to encourage them to develop a love of food and cooking that will stay with them as they grow up. 11.Students under 14 in the UK _______.
A. are fond of cooking

C. will learn how to cook at school
D.
A. many British people have unhealthy eating habits
B. people in Britain don't love to eat around the table
C. parents cook meals for their kids although they are busy
D. many British people don't like to eat with their families 13.The aim of the cookery course is to help children _______.
A. have a good appetite
B. learn more life skills
C. learn to do housework at home

It's only natural to be confused by the world around us. It is a very complicated and surprising place sometimes! And you'll never understand what's going on around you unless you ask yourself “why”every now and again.
Why do divers need headlights?
Sunlight only reaches down to 200 meters below the surface of the ocean. This “sunlit zone”is where all sea plants and most sea animals live. From 1,000 meters onwards, it is totally dark.
Why do I chatter when I'm cold?
When you are cold, your muscles(肌肉) contract (收缩) quickly to try and warm you up. This is called shivering. Your teeth chatter as the muscles in your jaw(颌) move. Why is the sky blue?
Sunlight looks white, but it is really made up of all the colors of the rainbow. When it arrives on Earth, it hits particles(颗粒) in our air that ‘shine' blue. Blue is scattered more than other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time.
?
Adding soap to water makes the surface of the water much “stretcher(有弹性的)”. It
spreads out enough for you to blow air inside it. It's a bit like blowing up a very delicate(易破的) balloon.
