3． There are plenty of myths (神话) to explain how the world came to have a moon to bring light to the night time. But now there is a plan for a man-made moon. It will give us much more light than the natural Moon.
China is preparing to put a man-made moon in the sky above Chengdu by the end of 2020. It will reflect sunlight back onto the Earth. If it succeeds, three more such objects will be sent out in 2022, according to Wu Chunfeng, a space scientist. Wu said it would be similar to how we get moonlight, but he predicted (预言) that the manmade moon would have eight times the brightness of the real one.
This is because the object will be about 500 kilometers above the Earth. That will make it much closer to us than the moon, which is over 380, 000 kilometers away, Wu added.
If the plan works, the man-made moon will save a lot of power. Scientist predicted that Chengdu could save around 1. 2 billion yuan in electricity every year if a new moon lit up 50 square kilometers of the city. And in 2022, four man-made moons can take turns reflecting sunlight as they will not always be in the best position relative to the Sun. Together, they can give light to an area of up to 6 , 400 square kilometers on the Earth for 24 hours. That means its brightness will be seen in most areas in China, so reducing the need for streetlights.

4． Chen Lin is a doctor who is from Hengyang, After his graduation from Peking University, he works in an office for a large organization. And this job can sometimes be just as exciting and dangerous as being an explorer.
Chen Lin works for MSF, an organization also known as Doctors Without Borders (无国界医生). MSF sends trained doctors all over the world to help people after a war or disaster(灾难). Chen Lin has traveled to many places to organize programs that help people in need.
At present, there are over 27, 000 trained medical staff taking part in MSF projects and tasks. The organization received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999. All kinds of doctors can volunteer for MSF. They need to be prepared to go almost anywhere in the world and, of course, they should expect difficult conditions. Doctors with experience in tropical (热带的) diseases are especially useful because most of MSF's work is in Africa. When MSF accepts a doctor for a task , he has to go for at least six months. When doctors have completed a few tasks, they might be sent on an emergency task following a disaster, such as an earthquake.
But why would a doctor leave a comfortable life and a good salary to join MSF? According to Chen Lin, the experience you have is a great help in your career. Besides, just like the explorers of the past, you need to keep an open mind and learn to get along well with the people you meet. Most importantly, at the end of each task, you have made a real difference to people's lives.

5． Social media (媒体) is a big part of most people's lives. There are social apps and sites like WeChat and Sina Weibo, as well as video apps like Douyin and Kuaishou. How do you behave when you use these apps?
Recently researchers at the University of Sussex, UK, studied social media users ranging from 10to 15 years old. They found that they can be divided into four personality types.
Geeks (极客)
Geeks are active social media users, but they find it mush more difficult to deal with the life in the real world. Most of them are boys who like playing computer games and making music and videos. They often post creative works online, using fake (假的) names. In fact, they should avoid spending too much time on the Internet.
Internet celebrities
Internet celebrities like sharing as well , but they are much more visible (看得见的) than geeks. They might become well﹣known for their singing or dancing. But many of them, especially teenagers, share almost every side of their lives in order to own more fans. Being a teenage Internet celebrity can sometimes cause problems in the real world.
Lurkers (潜伏者)
The first two groups are lucky to find a place to show their talent. But most teenagers fall into the third type — "lurkers", or people who are neither too active nor visible. This group prefers WeChat over Sina Weibo, as WeChat has private groups. They can't express themselves well but at least they make sure to protect their personal information.
Victims (受害者)
Victims don't have enough knowledge to keep themselves safe online Their personal information can be made public and cause problems for them. To avoid being a victim, you should check your personal settings on social media. "Friends only" is a good choice for your posts. Don't share your personal information.
