Hi, dear boys and girls! Do you know how to be a healthy kid? Here are some rules for you.
First, eat different foods, especially fruit and vegetables. You may have a favorite food, but you'd better eat something different.
Second, drink water and milk as often as possible. When you're really thirsty (口渴), cold water is the No. 1 choice. Milk is a great drink that can give you more calcium (钙) when your body needs to grow strong bones (骨头).
Third, listen to your body. When you are eating, notice how your body feels. Eating too much will not make you feel well and make you fat.
Fourth, limit (限制) screen time. It is good to take more exercise such as basketball, bike riding and swimming. You can't watch TV for more than two hours a day.
Fifth, be active. One thing you'd like to do as a kid is to find which activity you like best. Find ways to be active every day.
Follow these rules and you can be a healthy kid.

Why Should We Protect Wild Animals?
Do you know square dancing? It's a special kind of dancing only in China. In the morning and evening, many Chinese women, young and old, dance with music in the square.
Are you interested in their dancing? Do you want to join them to dance?
It's interesting that we want to dance when we hear wonderful music. Even little children will start jumping up and down with music. But the reason (原因) is not important.
Scientists say that animals dance, too. The "dancing" of animals gives messages to other animals. But when people dance, they express feelings(抒发感情) about life and love. For one thing, dancing is good for your body. It makes heart work and makes your breath fast. It also makes you use your arms and your legs. Go dancing often, and you can keep healthy. This is another important point about dancing. It gives you a chance to express your feelings and feel better about yourself. If you are angry about something, dancing helps those feelings go away.

Long long ago, there was a spider. She found a beautiful farm. She liked the farm and decided to live there forever.
One day, the spider caught a little bug. When the spider ate it, the bug said, “If you let me go, I will tell you an important thing. The thing will save your life.” The spider stopped and listened.
The little bug said, “You'd better get out of the farm. The harvest is coming! If you stay here, you will be killed by the farmer's machine.”
But the spider didn't listen to the bug and ate it for lunch. The next day when she was sleeping, the farmer came to have a harvest. The spider was killed by the machine.
