Heritage(遗产) is traditional customs, history and beliefs. We use the word "heritage" in many different ways. People talk about their family heritage, city heritage and national heritage.

    Today, heritage is changing, The Internet connects people around the world. In many ways this is a good thing, because we can learn about the heritage of other countries, and we can show our own heritage to the world. however, some people worry that traditional heritage is disappearing. In many ways, countries are becoming more and more alike(相似的). In most countries around the world, you can find KFC, Nike shoes, Starbucks coffee, American movies and so on. Some people think this is a good change, and others don't like it. You can decide whether or not it's a good thing.

    Bangladesh(孟加拉) is an agricultural country between India and Burma. Storms from the Indian Ocean sweep across the country every year, and large areas of farming land are flooded(冲毁). The people are very poor.

    Fewer than half of the country's children complete their primary education. When they are six or seven years old, many children leave school to work in the fields or at home. The rest of their "education" consists of looking after cattle, collecting firewood or doing household jobs.

    Not long ago, an experimental school was opened near the capital, Dacca, to help poor children. There are only 120 children in the school, which has three classrooms. In each class, forty pupils are divided into four groups of ten. Each pupil is free to decide which group he or she wants to join.

    The most able pupils do a great deal of the teaching. They act as group monitors. Their duty is to ensure that all pupils in their group understand and practice what the teacher has taught.

    There are a number of unusual features in the Bangladesh school. Children do not move up a class automatically when they grow older. Each group is promoted (升级)only when EVERY pupil in it has succeeded in getting to the right standard. As a result, all members of a group work hard to help the less able pupils. Nobody is left behind.

    Lessons are extremely practical and include work on farming, carpentry, health and running a home﹣as well as lessons on the basic skills of reading, writing and arithmetic. At school, pupils prepare for adult life by learning to carry out almost all the tasks which they will face when they grow older.

    If pupils have to look after cattle or young children, they are allowed to bring them to school. If a child has to stay at home to help his parents, there is no scolding or punishment (责罚) at school. Children enjoy their lessons and the school is cheap to run. It is so successful that other schools in Bangladesh are beginning to imitate(模仿) its methods.

    Visitors are even coming from other agricultural countries to see if they can use a similar method.

(1)Many people in Bangladesh work on farms.  

(2)Most children in Bangladesh complete their primary education.  

(3)In each group, the biggest or oldest pupil is made a monitor.  

(4)At the end of each school year, all the pupils move to a higher class.  

(5)At school, pupils learn to do almost all the tasks needed in adult life.

The cold wind blew strongly outside. Amaya was warm in her house, thinking about an article she'd read at school. The article was about kids who helped out their communities, and she thought it would be really cool to help her own town, Harvard.

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.

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.

(1)About the spacewalk, we can know  

A. some things can be fixed by astronauts during spacewalks

(2)How many ways to keep the astronauts safe during spacewalks?  

A. Two.

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.

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.

FROM THE EDITOR

DEAR

READERS.

Happy birthday to us! TIME zine's firse(期刊) came out on March3, 1923. Sure, 96 isn't the most special birthday, comparing with the 100th birthday. But we take every opportunity( 机会)to celebrate. TIME for Kids came along just a little bit later, in 1995. Soon, we will have our 25th birthday!
