In the last passage we've already talked about some dangerous plants， but we don't want to give anyone the wrong idea． The truth is that some plants can hurt you， but most are completely harmless． In fact， there are plenty of plants that are actually very useful to humans．
That is why plants are so popular in Chinese medicine． Chinese medicine has been using plants for at least 4，800 years． One of the most popular plants in Chinese medicine is ginseng（人参）．Doctors of Chinese medicine believe that ginseng can help your lungs （肺），clean your blood and do many other things．Ginseng also provides energy for people． In fact， many modern energy drinks that you see in stores have ginseng．
In some parts of U．S.. there is a plant called lady fern （蹄盖蕨）．This is the plant you need if you've been stung by a bee， or if you've got a small burn or a cut． Lady ferns are great for making your skin feel better． All you have to do is roll one of its leaves and make it into pieces in your hands． The juice inside the leaf will help your skin feel better．

Marianne Carus，who started Cricket（蟋蟀）magazine in 1973 and served as Editor﹣in﹣Chief（总主编）until 2012，died on March 3 at the age of 92 this year.
Marianne believed that "only the best of the best is good enough for the young. "In Cricket，children would find wonderful stories with beautiful art，and be encouraged by ideas in the humanities and sciences.Marianne looked for stories from around the world to awaken admiration for different peoples and cultures.Most important，Cricket would never talk down to children.
Marianne knew that children were filled with fun，and she wanted Cricket to be，too - "humor from the heart that makes you laugh out loud. "And so she named her literary magazines after a funny group of bugs（虫子），such as Lady bung and Spider.
Over the years，Cricket has been read by millions of children and given many writers and artists their start.Marianne kept a special box of "love letters" to the magazine.She treasured these letters from Cricket readers，including long﹣ago readers.They told her that their interest in reading had begun with Cricket.
▲She considered other names，such as Troubadour or Taliesin，the singers and storytellers of old who traveled from one place to another to share their songs and stories.Then，one night，she was reading Isaac Bashevi Singer's memoir（回忆录）A Day of Pleasure，about his childhood in Warsaw.In it he wrote：There was a stove in Shosha's apartment behind which there lived a cricket.It chirped the nights through all winter long I imagined the cricket was telling a story that would never end. "That's exactly what Marianne wanted her children's magazine to do-to tell stories that would never end!So the name Cricket became her best choice.

Wind power is a very clean source of energy． This is how wind power works． Wind makes windmills spin （旋转）． When the windmills spin， they make electricity． Then we can use the electricity．
A lot of people think that wind power is new， but that's not true．For thousands of years， people have used wind to sail boats and move water． We still do those things today， but these days we mostly use wind power to make electricity．
Wind power is a very popular source of energy． Most people think that we should use it more and more． First of all， it's clean． Windmills don't pollute the environment at all． Second， we can use wind power forever． After all， we will always have wind． Also， wind power is cheap， and it's getting even cheaper．
A lot of people don't understand wind power very well． They believe that there are problems with wind power， but many of those problems are not real． For example， some people say that windmills are dangerous for birds． They used to be true， but it isn't true anymore． Old windmills killed birds because they spun very fast． New windmills spin slowly， and they aren't dangerous for birds．
However， there are real problems with windmills． One problem is that many people think windmills are very ugly． This is a problem for people， because windmills are often in very pretty areas． Also， wind doesn't blow all the time， so we can't use wind power all the time． Finally， windmills are noisy．
Wind power is becoming more and more common． Right now， more than 80 countries use wind power． About 2.5 percent of the world's power comes from the wind． For some countries， that number is a lot higher． Wind power gives Denmark more than 25 percent of its electricity．
