    Long long ago, there was a swan with golden feathers. She lived in a lake. A woman lived in a small house 1 the lake with her two daughters. They were very poor. They worked hard all year round, but still, they lived a hard life and sometimes they even didn't have enough 2 to buy food.

    The swan was 3 to see that. She said to herself, "I'll give one of my 4 to them each day, and then they can live a happy life with the money selling my feathers." That evening, she flew to the poor woman's house and left a golden feather on the table without saying anything. From then on, the swan came every day and gave them a feather. The woman was very happy because their life was much 5than before.

    But day after day, the woman became greedy (贪婪).She said to her 6 . "The swan may fly away one day. If so, we will be poor again. We should take all her feathers 7 she comes next time."

    These days many students like to make friends online. Most of them think it's interesting to know an unknown person through the Internet. So, many students like to use computers to talk with those friends. And they spend too much time on it. Some of them cannot do well in their schoolwork. Their parents often don't think the children are as good as before. So many teachers and parents are worried about their children.

    In fact, only a few students can get real good friends in this way. Most of them were cheated by those unseen friends. And some of the students did wrong things online. It's terrible for students to use too much time to make friends and talk online. So we should be careful of making friends online and should not spend too much time on it. We'd better pay more attention to study. We will be happy when we do well in school and at home.

    Trees and forests are important to us. Have you e      planted a few trees on Tree Planting Day?

    Each year, many of people, both the old a      the young, plant a lot of trees. But this may not be the best w      to make your home a greener place. Last week, we v       a park in Hebei. We were s      to find most of the trees had been burnt. The workers told us that the trees d      soon after they were planted because they were not watered well enough. So the workers burnt them and changed the trees for new trees to be planted this year. On a card found in one of the trees, a student w      , "I hope this tree will g      up with me to become the backbone(栋梁) of our country." The workers said that the survival (存活) of the trees was really more important t       how many trees were planted.

    Some people in Beijing now have a new idea that they can donate (捐助) some m       and let professionals(专业人士)plant and take care of trees.

    "The direct reason for the drought (干旱) is light rain and high temperature," Ren Fuming, a leading expert (专家)at China's National Climate Center. The rainfall in worst-hit Yunnan since September last year is the lowest in about 50 years while the temperature since the beginning of winter is the highest.

    All over the world, natural disasters have climbed from less than 50 a year in the 1950s to between 350 and 450 a year in the 2000s. In 2009, weather events affected 55 million people around the world. China's drought is mainly affecting key food-producing areas, which grow more than eighty percent of the country's wheat.

    With no rain in sight until mid-month and possibly beyond, Chinese officials say they are preparing for a serious, long-lasting drought. The UN has warned that the drought could drive up food prices. And the situation could become terrible if a spring drought follows the winter drought. Food prices have already risen about 35 percent since mid-November.

    Chinese officials say the country's food production (产量) still has room to go back, although (尽管) people suffer (遭受) from the losses.
