Sometimes, I wonder whether there was any love between my parents. They were busy trying to1their new business. They didn't act romantically. They didn't 2their feelings. They just got used to the company of each other, and I 3it as kinship(亲情), not love.

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt (缝被子). I sat down beside her and asked, " Is there any 4between you and Dad?" She didn't answer at once.

I thought I had hurt her. At last my mother said, "Susan, look at this thread(线). Sometimes it 5, but most of it disappears in the quilt. It makes the quilt6and durable (耐用的). If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can 7be seen anywhere or anytime, but it's really there. "

I listened carefully but I didn't understand her until the next spring. My father suddenly got seriously 8and he had to stay in hospital for at least one month. My mother took really good care of him without any 9.

After they returned home, my mother helped my 'father walk slowly down the country road every day for rehabilitation training(康复训练). They two, hand in hand, supported each other. Once, I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But the 10is that love is just a thread that holds a family together.

There are some wonderful camps for kids from lower-income (低收入) families in Florida. Below are a few of these:

If only one person deserves (值得) the name of the greatest English writer of all time, that person should be William Shakespeare. His popular sayings, like "to be or not to be, that is a question", and his stories such as the tragedy (悲剧), Romance of Romeo and Juliet, are almost known in every corner of the world.

By 1594, Wlliam Shakespeare had become a key playwright of a popular acting company in the city. Whether comedy or tragedy, Shakespeare's plays catch people's hearts with-complicated (复杂的) characters and plots (情节) that reflect truths about human nature.

His comedies make fun of human's weakness and always have a happy ending. In A Midsummer Night s Dream ， fairies play mag1cal tricks on people lost in the woods. His tragedies, however, can be very dark. Macbeth tells the story about a Scottish man who becomes the king by killing all his enemies.

Shakespeare's works also have a big influence on the English language. He is a master of words. He coined about 1, 700 English words, including everyday ones like "lonely". "hurry" and "critical", according to the New York Post.

Of course, Shakespeare wrote 400 years ago and his English was very different from that of today. But it doesn't affect his popularity. His plays have been translated into every major language and are performed more often than any other playwright. There are over 400 films and TV dramas adapted (改编) from his work. Shakespeare is not for an age, but for all time.

Thousands of years ago, Chinese poet Qu Yuan (about 340-278 BC) wrote the poem Tianwen, meaning Quest for Heavenly Truth. He came up with a series of questions about the sky，stars，nature，myths and the world around us. The poem showed his doubts about traditional ideas and the spirit of finding the truth.

Inspired by the great poet, China has named its upcoming series of planetary exploration missions (行星探测任务) after the poem. The first one in the series - a Mars exploration mission - has been named Tianwen 1, the China National Space Administration (CNSA) said on April 24, China's Space Day. This shows China's desire (渴望) to explore the universe and discover its secrets.

China has been making great progress in space exploration. As early as 1970, China launched its first man-made Earth satellite (卫星), becoming the fifth country in the world to launch a man-made satellite independently. Since 2003, China has carried out six Shenzhou manned missions and launched two space labs into Earth's orbit(轨道). China's moon exploration missions - the Chang'e series - started in2007. In December 2018, China became the first country to send the probe(探测器) Chang'e 4 to the moon's far side, which always faces away from Earth.

The Tianwen series will follow the Shenzhou and Chang'e series and move further into space. The first step is to launch a Mars probe this year, which will mark the start of China's exploration of the Red Planet. The probe is expected to orbit(绕……轨道运行), land on and explore Mars in one mission. If it succeeds, it will be the first to complete all of these tasks in one mission. The Long March 5 rocket will send the probe to Mars. It will take seven months to reach the planet and land.

After this mission, China plans to visit Mars again in 2028, aiming to collect soil from the surface of the planet and bring it to Earth. Around 2030, China will explore Jupiter and several asteroids (小行星), according to CNSA.

American and British people both speak English. But sometimes there are some important differences between British English and American English.

Often. Americans don't say each word separately. They say words together. Americans may say "I dunno" instead of "I don't know"! However, the British are more careful. They usually say all the words and keep them separate.

Sound is not the only difference. Words sometimes have different meanings, too. Americans drive trucks, but in England people drive Lorries.

In England, if you are going to call your friends, you "phone them up". In America, you "give them a call".

There are also some differences in grammar. For example, Americans usually use the helping verb "do" when they ask a question. They say "Do you have a pen?" But the British often leave out the helping verb.

Most languages are like this. Languages change over time. When people live in separate places, the languages change in different ways. This is what has happened to English. Many people in Canada speak French but their French is very different from the French of France.

A. Many expressions are also different in the two countries.

B. It can also happen to other languages like French.

C. For example, the vocabulary for cars and driving is very different.

D. They say "Have you a pen?"

E. English in these two countries is different only in sound.

F. First of all, they sound very different.
