    I wrote a note to my parents when I was a young boy. And it was the first time I had ever written something that wasn't school homework. That night I just felt a strong desire to let Mom and Dad know how much I loved them, how much they meant to me, and how thankful I was to them for all they had given me. As I was too shy to express my feelings face to face, I wrote them a note and put it in their bedroom before going to bed.

    Early in the next morning, I heard a soft knock at my door. As soon as I opened the door, I found Mom and Dad standing outside. They hugged me and thanked me a lot for the note. Mom said that she had been thinking I was a little child but to her surprise, I had grown into a young boy slowly. Dad said he was happy that I could share my true feelings with them.

    Seeing the happiness I. had given them made my own heart jump for joy. I was amazed that my simple words could have touched them so much. It was the first time I could ever remember seeing my dad cry. The beautiful memory has stayed alive in my heart ever since.

    In the past, street stands (街摊) were not allowed in big cities because they were considered messy and influenced the environment and traffic conditions of a city. But this year, night markets and street stands have been encouraged to come back because they can bring the development of a street stand economy. Many people have started to enjoy their free time at night markets in different parts of China.

    Last Saturday, the civilization committee office of Changchun, capital of Jilin province, announced that it would encourage and support the opening of night markets. Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, has been allowing people to run businesses on some streets since March 15, 2020.

    "Night markets and food stands can be opened in some areas in parks, public squares and empty spaces as long as they don't influence traffic and local life. They also have to meet requirements for safety, health and tidiness. People are also being allowed to set up temporary (暂时的) roadside businesses. They needn't pay, but they must do it in an orderly manner," the officer said.

    "I'm really happy we have street markets again. It is part of our lives. But I hope they become more clean and tidy," said Dalian resident (居民) Jiang Lijuan, 65. "The move allows us to spend our leisure time at night markets as we really enjoy eating meals outdoors and shopping on the street," said another resident.

    Chengdu has designed more than 2,234 roadside business areas, 82 promotion areas on streets near large shopping malls and 17,891 vending spots, creating more than 100,000 jobs.

    Green Book, which won the 2019 Oscar for Best Picture, tells a story between an African American pianist Donald Shirley (a man with black skin) and his driver Tony(a man with white skin). Here is one of the best GREEN-BOOK parts in the movie.

     (Tony and Donald were put in prison because Tony tried to stop two police officers who forced Donald to get off the car and stand in the rain. Finally, they got out of prison.)

Donald: You shouldn't have hit him.

Tony: I didn't like the way he was treating you, making you stand out in the rain like that.

Donald: Please, you hit him because of what he called you. I' we had toendurethat kind of talk my whole life. You should be able totakeit for at least one night.

Tony: What? I can't get mad at that stuff he was saying ' because I'm not black? Christ, I'm blacker than you.

Donald: Excuse me?

Tony: You don't know about your own people! What they eat, how they talk, how they live. You don't even know who Little Richard is!

Donald: Oh, so knowing who Little Richard is makes you blacker than me? Oh, Tony, I wish you could hear yourself sometimes. You wouldn't talk so much.

Tony: I know exactly who I am. I'm the guy who's lived in the same Neighborhood in the Bronx my whole life, with my mother, my father, my brother, and now my wife and kids. That's it. That's who I am. I'm the one who has to work every day to put food on the table. You? Mr. Big Shot? You live on top of a castle traveling around the world doing concerts for rich people. I live on the streets. You sit on a throne (王座). So yeah, my world is way blacker than yours!

Donald: Yes, I live in a castle! Tony! Alone! And rich white people pay me to play the, piano for them, because it makes them feel educated. But as soon as 1 step off that stage I go right back to being just another nigger (黑人) to them. Because that is their true culture. And I suffer that slight (轻蔑) alone, because I'm not accepted by my own people because I'm not like them either! So if I'm not black enough, and if I'm not white enough…then tell me.

Tony, what am I?

    Food companies engineer junk food to make it addictive (上瘾的). They label (贴标签) their products to make them seem much healthier than they are. And their advertisements aim at children All of this is according to a news report read recently by students in a Texas middle school. They were taking part in an experiment which was run by the University of Chicago and the University of Texas.

    Researches had students learn about food-industry methods. They wanted to know if learning about them would change how kids feel about junk food. All over the world, kids are eating more foods that are high in salt, sugar and fat. This is partly the result of clever ads that make junk food hard to refuse.

    Christopher led the study. He says that when kids question the motives (动机) behind junk-food ads, they feel like they're fighting an unfair act. "The reward is knowing you're doing, the right thing," Christopher said.

    Junk food has been linked to health problems such as heart disease. But in 2017, food companies spent nearly $9 billion on TV ads selling unhealthy food. Companies use different kinds of methods. An ad with cartoon characters may make cookies seem fun to eat. A sports star enjoying a sugary drink may make it look cool. Advertisers know that if kids want a product, they'll ask their parents to, buy it. Even parents don't notice the power of ads. By the time they're an adult, they have been used to junk-food advertising. They just don't realizeit."

    In the Texas study, Christopher had students view (评论) ads on an iPad.   ①  , to make each ad's message true. For example, a McDonald's ad showed a Big Mac and the words "The thing you want when you order salad." To the end of the sentence, a student added "should be salad".

    The results of Christopher's Texas study were published in April.   ②  . They showed that three months after studying ads, students were still choosing healthier snacks：milk instead of sugary juices, fruit over cookies.   ③   "Kids are making a difference," Christopher says. "They. see a chance to make the world a better place.   ④  "

How to keep yourself safe from new virus?

    After a new-type coronavirus (冠状病毒) was detected in Central China's Wuhan city a month ago, more cases have been reported in recent days. To prevent catching the infection, here's what you can do.

Wearing a mask is one of the most effective ways to protect you from getting infected. Make sure to wear it properly by tightening the nose clip and pulling the bottom of it over your chin.

Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, or you can cough or sneeze into your sleeve, but avoid covering with your hands directly.

Wash your hands with soap and running water thoroughly for at least15 seconds. Before eating, after using the toilet, after returning home, after touching trash and after contacting with animals or handling animal wastes, you must wash your hands.

Exercise regularly is one of the most important ways to help you stay away from catching any infections. Make sure that shared spaces have good air flow and avoid going to crowded places such as hospitals, railway stations and airports.

Seek prompt medical attention if you have symptoms of fever and respiratory infection. Avoid close contact with people who have flu or cold-like symptoms.
