Sophie Chen is a 14-year-old girl from Taiwan. When she was 6 years old, she did something amazing!

She finished a 2, 100-kilometer bike journey from Xi'an, the capital city of Shaanxi, to Turpan （吐鲁番） in Xinjiang, with her parents. It took them two and a half months. Sophie became the youngest child in the world to have biked along the Silk Road. Chinese novel Journey to the West inspired her to do so.

That is not all. Sophie wrote a book about the long journey with her father Jack Chen, a professional outdoor explorer. On April 26, the book's English version Biking the Silk Road: 6-year-old Sophie's Fantasy Tour came out in Beijing. New World Press published it.

Now Sophie studies at Ta Hwa High School. She sees the journey as a special experience in her life. She became more hard-working and learned history and geography better because of it.

On the way, she met many friendly local people and saw amazing things. She even picked some grapes! "The grapes in Xinjiang were so big and sweet. I have never seen them in Taiwan," she said.

Still, it was not easy. "The biggest challenge was the bad weather and road conditions," she said. She wrote in the book, "It was terribly hot in the Gobi Desert. I almost got sunstroke and could never have enough to drink. "

Sophie has biked in other countries, such as the United States and Turkey. This summer holiday, she plans to ride a bike from Greece to Portugal in Europe.

Would you try food made of rubbish? When world leaders got together at the UN for a meeting on climate（气候） change, they had a special lunch. The food was made from something that most of us would throw away. There was a salad made of vegetable scraps（剩菜叶）. The leaders also had hamburgers made of fruit left over from juicing.

The UN said this reminded people about food waste and the bad influence it has on climate change. "Food waste is not often noticed in climate change, and that is shameful when so many people are in hunger. " said a government secretary.

Most people don't even realize how much food they throw away every day. Sometimes they cook too much or they don't use it in time. Every year more than one-third of all food produced worldwide goes to waste, according to the UN. Stop the waste, and the whole world could save ＄300 billion from wasted food. More importantly, it could also do less harm to the environment.

Think about a bag of cheese（奶酪）. Before we buy it at the store, people have to raise the cows, deal with the milk, and drive to the shop to sell the cheese. If you throw the cheese away, you have wasted energy, fuel（燃料） and water, which give out greenhouse gases that add to global warming.

The UN said if we stop throwing good food away, we could cut down up to 17 million tons of CO₂. The good of that would be the same as taking one in every four cars off the road.

This is the word "family" written in Chinese"家". It's a pictographic character（象形文字）. The"宀"looks like the roof（屋顶） of a house, and the"豕"is a pictographic character for "pig", which is developed from a picture like this:  

The word"家"with a pig under the roof of a house may show the importance of domestic animals（家畜） to traditional Chinese families.

There is a strong feeling between parents, children and other family members. The father is usually very strict with their children. Parents work very hard to set a good example for their children, while children study hard. Brothers and sisters in the family are very friendly and helpful to each other. All the family members make an effort to live a happy life.

Our ancestors（祖先） will be part of our life and a warm memory forever. They connect all the family members together.

We remember our ancestors, not for any advantages for ourselves but to make our feelings more active. Whenever we think of them, they make us stronger inside.

Everyone values the idea of "making all the members of the family happy". We should all have this same idea as the great "China dream". There are thousands of families in China, just because every family goes well, China is getting better and better.

I'm Lin Yue. In March, 2022, COVID-19 started suddenly in my city. It was so serious that the whole city was locked down. At the very beginning of the lockdown（行动限制）, some old people, especially those living alone, had difficulty getting vegetables.

One day, in the community WeChat group, an old man said that he was short of vegetables so I had an idea of setting up a food bank in the community, and my neighbors were also ready to offer help.

To keep social distancing（社交距离）, I used a large box as the food bank, and put it in the public area. Neighbors could give away and get some food there. The large box was quickly filled with vegetables, rice and snacks.

One evening, I saw a bag of vegetables with a note saying" These are fresh vegetables. Please take them home if you need. "

In the WeChat group, an old lady who got the vegetables said, "I was so moved by the good-will（善意）, but I only took three tomatoes, because I wanted to leave the rest for those people really in need. "

There were many similar stories in my city during the lockdown. Although COVID-19 keeps us apart, we can get through the hard times as long as we pull together.
