People have told stories about Robin Hood for over 700 years． Nobody knows if he was a real person or an invented character． In the legends， Robin was extremely smart and humorous， he helped strangers，and later his kindness paid off．
The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood appeared in 1883． It was Howard Pyle's first book and it was a great success．
At the beginning of the story， Robin was just a young man， who was good at archery （射箭术）． One day he was walking through Sherwood Forest，a royal hunting forest near Nottingham in England． There he got into trouble with a group of men． Among them， he killed the cousin of the Sheriff （郡长） of Nottingham． Robin became a legendary outlaw， and soon the leader of one hundred outlaws， known as his "Merry Men"．
Robin and his "Merry Men" always looked for rich people and asked them to their camp in Sherwood Forest． When they arrived， Robin gave them a good meal and played music for them． Then he took their gold away to help the poor． Robin became most famous for "robbing from the rich and giving to the poor． "
The Sheriff of Nottingham was Robin's greatest enemy． He was cruel and treated the poor badly． It was his job to keep the woods safe and to make sure that nobody stole the king's deer． He hated Robin because Robin was an outlaw． But most of all， he hated Robin because everyone else loved him． The Sheriff of Nottingham kept trying to catch Robin Hood and his "Merry Men"， but never succeeded．

From Asia to America and everywhere in between， Swing﹣an energetic form of dance that includes six﹣step and eight﹣step rhythms（节奏） ﹣ has taken the world by storm． Making a recent comeback， swing dance floors have popped up all over the world． Many clubs make fans of Swing happy by holding nights when swing music is played， and sometimes even offering classes to attract customers．
Though Swing is now popular worldwide， it first appeared alongside the jazz movements of the 1920s and 1930s in New York City． While listening to jazz， the young black people of that time developed the movements of the Lindy Hop ﹣ a style of dance that is best known for a break away or 'swing out' move and sudden improvisation（即兴表演）．
It was reportedly given this name when a reporter was interviewing a person at the dance hall who was watching other couples dance． When asked what that dance was called， the watcher looked at a newspaper next to him that had an article about Lindbergh﹣ the first person to fly alone across the Atlantic（大西洋）﹣which was titled， 'Lindy Hops the Atlantic'． Then the watcher announced that the 'Lindy Hop' was the name of the dance， and it has stuck since then．
In 1926， the Savoy Ballroom was the first large business to offer a place for people to listen to swing music and dance． With its huge dance floor， the Savoy became a big success overnight， attracting some of the best dancers and musicians in the New York area．
Within ten years， the Lindy Hops was sweeping through the United States and became a symbol of unity， as young people of all racial（种族的）backgrounds crowded into dance halls to swing the night away． Traditional dance teachers did not welcome it because they thought it was not even a real dance and were quite sure about its demise but Swing has proved them wrong； it continues to be one of the world's most fun dances．

This year I was very proud to be chosen again． I wanted to meet robots from other countries and explore ideas about our sport． However， my programmer fell ill the week before we were leaving． It was very painful for her and I felt very scared． I didn't feel so confident that I would win．
The day of the competition was rather cold for my legs and my special oil began to freeze． I stopped for a moment（which I shouldn't）before I jumped from the starting place on a little spaceship， then I began my performance． At the correct moment I tried to open my parachute（降落伞）but there was a problem． It only opened a little． I began to fall faster and faster so that I could not turn， dive， circle or dance． My heart stopped beating as I landed heavily on a mountain covered with snow．
This is why I am writing to you from my hospital bed with two broken legs and a weak head． I did not win anything at the Olympics after all． I need the factory to build me two new legs and an even bigger head． Then I will be able to compete once more． Let's hope for greater success in the next Olympics!

Why are dogs our best friends．Maybe because they can understand our words much better than we thought，according to a study in Hungary．It found that dogs understand not only what we say，but also how we say it．
"The results were very exciting and very surprising．"Said the researcher Attila Andies，from Eotvos Lorand University in Budapest．
For the study，the researchers first trained 13 dogs for months．The dogs had to sit quietly inside machine，so that the researchers could check their activity．
Then the researcher put headphones on dogs and played people's voice to them．There were four different voice．Some were positive words，such as"well down"，or neutral（不带感情色彩的） words like"however"．The words were also in different tones（音调）．Some were positive and some were neutral．
Brain scans（扫描）showed that the dogs could recognize（辨认）words．as well as the tone of words，much like people do．The positive words with a positive tone brought the stronger activity in their brain's reward centers（反应中枢）．
"It shows that for dogs，a nice phrase can word very well as a prize，but it words best if both words and tones match．"Said Andies．
They also found that dogs deal with meaningful words with the left side of the brain and tones with the right．Human brains work in the same way．
It gave us a new understanding of language，said Andies．That is，not only do humans understand the meaning in words，other species（物种） do too．

What's a spacewalk？ Any time an astronaut gets out of a spacecraft（航天器） while in space， it is called a spacewalk． Astronauts go on spacewalks for many reasons． For example， experiments can be placed on the outside of a spacecraft． This lets scientists learn how being in space affects（ 影响） different things． By going on spacewalks， astronauts can also fix things instead of bringing them back to the earth to fix．
When astronauts go on spacewalks， they wear spacesuits to keep themselves safe． Inside spacesuits， astronauts have the oxygen（氧气） they need to breathe and the water they need to drink． To keep the astronauts and the spacecraft safe， the astronauts must leave and go back to the spacecraft through a special door． When on a spacewalk， astronauts use safety tethers to stay close to their spacecraft． Tethers are like ropes， connect the spacewalkers with the spacecraft． They keep astronauts from floating（ 漂 浮 ） away into space． Another way astronauts stay safe during spacewalks is by wearing a SAFER． SAFER is worn like a backpack． It helps an astronaut move around in space．
How do astronauts train for spacewalks？ One way is by going for a swim． Floating in space is a lot like floating in water． Astronauts practice spacewalks underwater in a huge special swimming pool． For every one hour they will spend on a spacewalk， astronauts need to train seven hours in the pool． Another way astronauts practice for a spacewalk is by using virtual reality（虚拟现实）． It looks and feels just like a spacewalk．
Today， only three countries have finished spacewalks independently． They are Russia， the United States and China． The first person to go on a spacewalk in the world was Alexei Leonov from Russia． Zhai Zhigang is the first Chinese astronaut to go on a spacewalk． The world record of spacewalks is held by Russian astronaut Anatoly Solovyev． He has been on 16 spacewalks and spent more than 82 hours outside in space．

DNA is the whole"map" of the human body.It is something that all humans have，and it tells the body what to do.DNA is the reason that we look like our parents，because we get some of their DNA to make our own.
People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time.In 1860，Mr Mendel discovered why we look similar to other people in our family.It is because of small things called "genes（基因）"in our body.In 1953，two scientists，Watson and Crick，found out that those small parts are real messages.They are written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961，another two scientists found the first "word" that they could understand in that language.It shows how DNA tells the cell（细胞） to build its parts.So far，scientists have found all the words in the DNA map，but we do not understand what they all do.By understanding what just one "word" means，we can help to save people from several illnesses.So the more we understand ，the more doctors will be able to do.
Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine to help sick people，Other people worry that when we learn more "words" and find out more information，we will use it in the wrong way，just to make people more attractive（有吸引力的）or stop sick people getting jobs.

D．It's necessary to make a plan before doing things．
I was filled with doubts and worries until my grandfather told me to stand tall．
For me， height was my trouble． I was much taller than other girls， so I often bent（ 弯曲） my body at the back of the line． I had always felt unsafe as the tallest student of my class in Bala Cynwyd． And I wasn't looking forward to entering the ninth grade．
My grandfather didn't laugh at me． Instead， whenever I tried to bend myself in order to appear shorter， he would tell me "Stand straight and tall， Alisa． "I trusted my grandfather more than anyone else in my childhood． And whenever I was afraid of something， he always told me stories of his life．
My grandfather grew up in war﹣torn（战乱的） Europe．" Stand straight， stand tall "meant something else then． After the war， he went to America． He lived a hard life， "If they could do it， why couldn't I？""Stand straight， stand tall，"he often reminded（提醒） himself． Thanks to the help of a friend， my grandfather got a job． He once told me that he was very nervous at first． He was not only trying to learn this hard new job but also a new language．
"Stand straight， stand tall，" he would always tell himself． I am so proud of my grandfather． After listening to my grandfather 's unusual experiences， I have changed the way I look at my own life．
"Stand straight， stand tall"has become not only a piece of advice to improve my posture（身姿）． It also tells me to be proud of who I am．
