Many artists draw with pens and brushes, but few "paint" with knives. Wang Jing, a woman from Shenyang, China, has given most of her time and energy to this art form for 27 years.
In 1995, Wang got the idea by chance when she cut a piece of red paper using a knife and it left a white line. Then she believed that she might have created something out of common things. After that, using knives and paper, she completed a painting of a pair of birds.
People usually "add" colors to create paintings, but knife painters use knives to "take away" colors on specially made coated paper. They use different pressure on the paper in different directions (方向) to create different colors. Once the marks are left on the paper, they cannot be covered, so it requires the painter to be completely lost in the work.
Few people knew the great art form just after Wang created it. Besides, Wang herself was not expecting to make it something big at the beginning. But thanks to her love for the art form, she has kept painting for the past 27 years. So far, she has completed hundreds of paintings, and her favorite is a 2.8-meter-long painting. Wang said she would continue working in the field and make it known across the world.
The Animal "Workers"
Jay, a 23-year-old man wearing an animal costume (戏服), was giving out advertisement cards on the street. Jay was working so hard to make more people visit his store. Not only human society, but animal society also has such a group of animal "workers". They either perform tasks, or dress themselves up, or just use their cuteness to bring in money for the company.
For example, the Call Duck Cafe(柯尔鸭咖啡厅) draws the attention of a large number of tourists with Call Ducks' cute appearance. Each duck interests a lot of guests every day. They can be touched or have their pictures taken with the guests.
Owl（猫头鹰）Cafes have become popular in Japan in recent years. However, owls sleep during the day and are active at night. Making them work against their biological clock with be harmful to them.
Many animals die because they are tired and full of fear. But there are still many people using their cuteness and life to make money.
The aim of Animal Cafes is certainly to bring in more money but they should consider the well-being of these lovely animals.
Please give these cute animals a right to "not work".
You can never imagine how crazy I was about football then.I used to play football until dark every day. But I unluckily developed a serious disease one day. Soon my mother rushed to me to the hospital and the doctor said that I needed to receive treatment in the hospital for some time.
My dad often spent the night with me in the hospital while my mother looked after my sister at home. Then came the happiest moments when my father told me wonderful stories.
My father was a talented storyteller. In the hospital, he would tell me a story or two. He copied sounds of bicycles or animals,so the pictures would never disappear from my mind. So happy was I that sometimes I wished to stay in the hospital a little longer.
Because of my mom's strict and careful care later, it became difficult to get well slowly, No longer sick, no more stories. Disappointed, I went into my father's room one evening
"Dad, you tell me stories only when I'm sick."
My father laughed, "You are already eight and can read by yourself.
He handed me a book and said, "Go and read it. It will tell you stories."
That night, I opened the book and read the most interesting story I had ever read.Then I became thirsty for books and now I am a curious reader.
We often have arguments in all relationships. But that is not always a bad thing. Sometimes we can choose to be in a win-win situation. What is important is how we manage the argument.
Treat each other with respect.
If your friend calls your names or makes fun of you, tell him or her to stop. , walk away and tell him or her you do not want to talk any more. Respect has to be won and if you want people to respect you, do the same to them.
Listen to other people patiently.
When everyone is talking, who does the listening？Listen to understand, not to reply.
Listening in silence is sometimes stronger than arguing in vain（徒劳无益）.
If giving in to others can lead to a nice result, there is no need to argue just to win someone else. After all, solving an argument doesn't have to be a tug-of-war（拔河）.
In a word, we each should do our own part to deal with arguments.
A. If your friend continues
B. Give in when it is necessary.
C. If you don't want to talk about your friend
D. The following suggestions might help you.
E. Do not be too quick to judge what you hear.
F. The more you talk, the better the result will be.
G. In this way, we can achieve a win-win situation.
I'm a student from Canada. Ever since I was little, I've been larger than other girls. For a long time, this really made me 1 . People would look at me for a long time because I was "big" and I hated the way I looked. My nervousness drove me to try every way possible to lose 2 , including dieting and weight-loss pills. But this brought me nothing but pain and 3 condition.
Everything 4 when one day I found a story of a heavy model, Tess Holiday. 5 she is not as slim as most other models, she has the confidence to be herself —6 in a job full of beauty stereotypes（"美"的刻板印象）. Her story made me have different ideas about what it means to be beautiful. I realized that my health is the most important thing.
Now I exercise a couple of times a week but just to 7 . Isn't it better that I'm large and happy, 8 being unhealthy and too slim？Being healthy is beautiful, and we should wear that beauty with 9 . What I really 10 is that Tess says good health not only makes us more beautiful, but happier, too.

"It can't be done." Boyan Slat heard this over and over when he first suggested a way to clean up millions of tons of plastic polluting our oceans.
Slat was on a diving（潜水）trip in Greece three years ago when he was troubled by plastic. "There were more plastic bags than fishes, "he says."That moment I realized it was a huge problem and that environmental problems are really the biggest problems we will face."
That fall, Slat, then 17, decided to study plastic pollution as part of a high school project. Soon, Slat learned that no one had yet thought of useful ways to clean up all the rubbish. Most people wanted to"fish"up the plastic using ships with nets—which might need more than 1, 000 years, cost too much, and leave sea life along with the rubbish.
Slat decided to avoid these problems：a solar-powered system（太阳能系统）using a moving plastic tube（管）which will go around the rubbish and collect it.Wind and waves will push the rubbish to the tube. A ship will pick up the rubbish and take it back to the land.
Slat organized a team of volunteers for the Ocean Cleanup, which has about 100 members.
Over the next three to four years, Slat will continue to test whether his project is good enough or not.
