Dear Lucy,
How are you? It has been a month since my family left Hong Kong for England and we are fine.
England is very different from Hong Kong. The weather is terrible and it rains a lot. The buildings are funny. They are in rows and not high. I love them because the rooms are much larger. I'm having a wonderful time at my new school and my new home!
Mum and Dad are happy with their new jobs. But my brother Jack doesn't like moving to England because he misses his friends so much.
I've made lots of new friends at school. My teachers are really nice too and my English has improved a lot. After school, we can take part in relaxing activities such as sport, watching films or playing computer games. There's a park near the school where I often go with the other students at the weekend.
We are travelling back to Hong Kong for the summer holiday. I will visit you and bring you a present!
Write back soon!
Love,
Sandy
Fights in school sometimes happen, But how can you keep away from (远离) a fight? Here's something you can do.
Be calm (冷静). Sometimes, you feel so angry that you really want to teach somebody a lesson. But being angry can't solve problem. Neither can a fight. Instead, it may bring you more problem . In the school, everyone involved(卷入) in a fight will be punished(惩罚), no matter who (无论) started it. There are no winners in a fight.
Shout loudly if you know someone is coming up behind you to attack, turn toward the person with your hands up in front of your body and loudly say “stop” before walking away. Loud voice can usually make the attacker calm down. If the person doesn't stop, cry for help by calling out (大声叫喊) the name of a teacher whose office is nearby.”
________Your friend may ask you to join in a fight. Learn to say no, Helping him fight is not really helpful to him. If you really want to give him a hand, try to ask him to give it up. Also, you can tell him if he gets involved in a fight, he may get hurt and be punished. Then, try to learn why he want to a fight and help him find a right way to deal with the problem.
We know the mosquito very well. Mosquitoes fly everywhere. They can be found almost all over the world, and there are more than 2.500 kinds of them.
No one likes the mosquito. But the mosquito may decide that she loves you, She? Yes, she. It's true that male mosquito doesn't bite and only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs(产卵). She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite (咬) . If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if she doesn't like your blood, she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosquito bites you, just remember you are chosen. You're different from the others!
If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites, you will have an itch (痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. By the time the itching begins, she has flown away.
And then what happens? Well, after her delicious dinner, the mosquito feels tired. She just wants to find a place to have a good rest. There, on a leaf or a wall, she begins to lay eggs, hundreds of eggs.

Counting before numbers
Before the invention of written numbers, people used many different ways to count things.
At first, people used their fingers, and even their toes. However, they could only count small numbers in this way.
After that, they began to make small marks on sticks and bones. This helped them count bigger numbers. They used them to count things like the days of a month, the amount of food and the number of animals they had.
Then people began to use tokens made from clay or small stones. This helped them count even bigger numbers. They often put the tokens on pieces of string so that they could carry them around easily. This developed into tools like the abacus.
Finally, people began to develop systems of written marks to show different numbers, and this led to the Hindu- Arabic system (0-9). We are still using this system today.
