One day I was watching a movie at home and tears dropped from my eyes as I saw a moving picture. My three-year-old son came to me and asked me why I was crying. I ____ silent as I couldn’t explain to him it was just an emotional（情感的） thing. To my surprise, he______my face with his little hand and said, “Dear Mom, stop crying! You see____will be fine. You’re my good girl. So just get up and let’s get ready for school.” On hearing him saying this to me I could not help______.It was so funny for a child to say so. Later I ______that he had repeated almost the _____ thing that I told him when he was crying.

The first time a child begins to speak, he tries to_____what his parents have been telling him for a long time. Usually parents______with the words “Mama” ,“Papa”and so on. But as the child continues learning and possibly starts speaking on his own without being_____,we as parents always _____ he’s still being guided by us. The only_____is that we’re now doing that in a more passive (被動(dòng)的)way than before. We always use words that we don’t want our child to say, and when he says those words, we_____where he has learned them. Even then , some of us don’t realize that the child has learned the words only from _____ only. Instead, we start to put the blame ( 指責(zé)) on either his friends or somebody who has talked to him when we are not present.

About thirty years ago, China was known as the “Bicycle Kingdom”. But the two-wheeled way of transportation became less and less popular later.

But these months you can see a revival(復(fù)興) of bikes across China. More and more people choose to ride bikes instead of driving to schools, workplaces or parks. Some start-up companies（新興公司） like Ofo and Mobike came up with the bike-sharing plans. They have brought the plans to people’s daily life and developed it to a new level.

Unlike other sharing plans around the world, China’s bicycles can be picked up and left anywhere. The bicycles are locked by the user after riding and then unlocked by the next rider by using a mobile APP and scanning(掃描)a QR code on the bike.

People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphones. The bikes have GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They’re popular among many Chinese people as they provide a good solution to the “l(fā)ast mile” problem, which means the final leg of a person’s journey.

China’s government praised Mobike and Ofo last month. They said that bike-sharing was a good way of cutting air pollution and traffic pressure.

Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. 1.

Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. 2.

Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Some scientists found that children who had older brothers or sisters were often bullied (欺侮) by their older brothers and sisters. So they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may also be shy. 3. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.

You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. 4.One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure. In Japan, when people do not succeed, they blame ( 責(zé)備) themselves for their failure. In Israel, people often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck.

For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say it is possible for you to get over your shyness. 5.And don't forget—if you are shy, you are not the only one.

If the eyes are the windows of the heart, then the body is the mirror of our feelings. If we are feeling great, we may give our body signals(信號(hào)). If we look at someone else’s body, we can often tell how they are feeling by their body signals. So reading body language signals is a great tool for daily communication.

Someone doesn’t think that learning how to read and use body language is important. In fact, 7% of the information we receive is from what people actually say and 38% of the information we receive is from the tone(語(yǔ)氣) and the speed of their voice, while 55% of the information we receive is from their body language.

Facial expression is one of the body languages. Scientists say that humans have 80 muscles(肌肉) on their faces. These muscles can make 7000 different facial expressions. They can be divided into six kinds: happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, fear and disgust(厭惡).

For example, when people think a certain food tastes disgusting, they usually make a funny face. When people are surprised ,they often raise their eyebrows and open their eyes wide.

If people can read body language correctly, they may be better at knowing other people’s feelings. However, be careful not to stare at others for a long time because it is not polite.
