Leo was a small and thin boy living in a small village. Some boys in the village often bullied him and Leo was afraid.
One day, an old wizard (魔法师) went by the village and saw Leo being bullied. So when the bad boys left, he gave Leo a lion's tail. “It's a magic tail.” the wizard said, “When someone wears it and acts bravely, he or she will turn into a strong lion.” Leo hung the lion's tail behind his body and decided to teach the bad boys a lesson.
But when the boys came, Leo was afraid and tried to run away. Yet they caught him. Suddenly, Leo showed the tail and remembered what the wizard had said. He became brave. He looked them in the eyes and said he would make them regret doing that. Leo felt the goose bumps (鸡皮疙瘩) all over his body, “This means that I am turning into a lion.” he thought. The boys ran away in fear. Leo wanted to catch them, but he found his legs were as short as before.
When the wizard saw it, he came to Leo. Leo was very happy, though a little disappointed because his lion body had lasted only a short time.
“You are great.” said the wizard, “But have you ever seen a lion fighting? No one fights with lions because they know how brave and strong lions are.” Yes. Leo had never seen a lion fighting. He suddenly understood that he didn't really turn into a lion and that what really worked was his brave heart.

It's 2050. The Earth is dying, and moving to Mars seems to be the only way out for humans. A team of American astronauts (宇航员) begin to search on Mars. This is what the movie Red Planet begins with. Known as the Red Planet, Mars is the favourite of writers and filmmakers.
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the next planet beyond the Earth. Mars is the only planet whose surface can be seen from the Earth. It is about half size of our planet.
The surface of Mars is more like the Earth than any other planet. But it is further from the Sun than the Earth, so temperatures on Mars are much lower. Plants and animals can not live now on Mars. But many scientists still believe that such life may have been on Mars long ago.
On 6th August, 1996, scientists discovered a piece of rock from Mars, which fell to the Earth 13, 000 years ago. 10 years later, some scientists still didn't accept that there was life on Mars. People may not be sure about life on Mars until a sample (样本) of life is brought back. Some further researches are being done in many countries.

A Pioneer for all People
Though he was one of China's most famous scientists, Yuan Longping considered himself a farmer, because he worked the land to do his research.
Known as “Father of Hybrid Rice (杂交水稻)”, Dr Yuan graduated from Southwest Agricultural (农业的) College in 1953. From then on, finding ways to grow more rice was his life goal. As a young man, he saw the great need for increasing the rice production. At that time, hunger was a serious problem in many parts of the countryside. Dr Yuan searched for a way to get more rice with the same size of the fields. In 1974, he became an agricultural pioneer in the world to grow rice that has high production and that is called super hybrid rice. In the 1980s, he went around the world and gave advice about growing rice to farmers in other countries. In 2004, he won the World Food Prize for his work.
Dr Yuan was quite satisfied with his life. He would much rather keep time for his hobbies. He enjoyed playing the violin, swimming and reading. Spending money on himself meant very little to him, so he gave millions of yuan to help some researchers with their research in farming.
Long ago Dr Yuan had a dream about rice plants as tall as sorghum (高粱) . With his hard work, he grew the rice that could feed more people. President Xi Jinping praised him for his great contributions (贡献) to China's food safety and world corn development.
