What makes you happy Beautiful music, good friends or interesting games If you are a food lover, nice food will make you feel happy. However, delicious food can’t always be easy to get. When you feel bad and there’s no food available, what will you do Some American researchers say that you can try to draw some nice food. According to their new research, drawing pictures of the food you like will help improve your mood (情绪).
The researchers invited 61 students from St Bonaventure University in New York to take part in the research. The 22 men and 39 women were all in their early twenties. The researchers first divided the students into four groups and gave them red, green, brown and black pencils to draw pictures of different food including cupcakes, pizza, strawberries and pepper.
The researchers used a research tool to assess mood changes. They made the students record their mood, hunger and level of excitement before and after the five-minute drawing exercise, which was done when they were hungry.
The result showed drawing pizza improved the students’ mood by 28%, while drawing cupcakes and strawberries improved their spirits by 27% and 22%. However, mood in the pepper group improved by only 1%. The result also showed there was such a big difference in hunger and excitement levels between the groups.

Tom 11, was trying to fall asleep when his 8-year-old brother. Mike, came into his room. He looked around, but seemed really out of it. Then Mike went back into the hallway and stood there looking straight up at the light. This was really strange. Tom didn’t know what to do. Just then. Tom’s father appeared and explained Mike was sleepwalking.
Not all sleep is the same every night. We experience some deep, quiet sleep and some active sleep, which is when dreams happen. You might think sleepwalking would happen during active sleep, but a person isn’t physically active during active sleep. It usually happens in the first few hours of sleep in the period called deep sleep.
The truth is that not all sleepwalkers walk. Some simply sit up or stand in bed or act like they’re awake when, in fact, they’re asleep! Most, however, do get up and walk around for a few seconds or for as long as half an hour.
Sleepwalkers’ eyes are open, but they don’t see the same way they do when they’re awake. They tend to go back to bed on their own and won’t remember it in the morning.
You also might have heard that sleepwalkers can get frightened if you wake them up. That’s true, so what do you do if you see someone sleepwalking You should call for a grown-up who can lead the person back to bed. And once the sleepwalker is tucked(掖好被子) back in bed, it’s time for you to get some sleep, too!

When your pen is broken, the battery（电池）in your toy runs out, or you have some leftover（吃剩的）food, what do you do with these things You will probably throw them all into one bin. But actually, all kinds of rubbish need to be sorted separately.
Rubbish sorting is a big issue（议题）worldwide. In recent years, some Chinese cities have been working hard on it, Shanghai has worked with Alipay to create a “green account（账户）” service for its residents（居民）. Account holders get points by sorting their rubbish correctly. Through the Alipay app, they can exchange the points for milk, phone cards and other products. The city is asking all of its residents to sort their rubbish into four groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry. Wet waste is also known as household（家庭）waste. Paper, metal and glass are recyclable waste. Medicine and batteries are harmful waste. Finally, any waste that’s not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the “dry waste” bin. Many other Chinese cities are also doing this. Shenzhen has been sorting its rubbish into the same four groups since 2012. Students there must study waste-sorting guidebooks.
If you don’t sort your rubbish, it will go to a landfill（垃圾填埋场）and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground. Some rubbish can pollute the soil and groundwater and it can also do harm to the environment around us. China is improving its waste-sorting efforts. There is still a long way to go.

A little stream (小溪) ran down from a high mountain far, far away through many villages and forests, until she reached a desert. The stream then thought, “I’ve been through countless difficulties, I should have no problem crossing this desert! But as she started her journey, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed and was very unhappy, “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean in the end,” she said sadly to herself.
At this time, a deep voice came, “If a breeze (微风) can cross the desert, so can a stream.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream replied, “That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.” “That’s because you can’t give up what you are. If you like to do it, and let yourself evaporate (蒸发) into the breeze, it can take you across, and you can reach the ocean.” said the desert.
“Give up what I am now and disappear into the breeze No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. After all, she had never experienced anything like it before.
“The breeze can carry the vapor (蒸气) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a stream again to continue its course (进程).”explained the desert very patiently.
“And whether you’re a stream or vapor, your nature never changes,” continued the desert.
Hearing this, the little stream rushed into the open arms of the breeze, which carried her to the next stage (阶段) of her life.
The course of our lives is like the same with of the little stream. If you want to overcome the difficulties in your life to get success, you should also change the way you used to be.
