Have you ever wished you could change something about your body? If so, you’re not alone.

Many people use apps like MeituXiuxiu to beautify photos before putting them on social media. Some teenagers are even having plastic surgery (整容术) at an early age. Zeng, a senior 2 student from Chengdu, had a double eyelid surgery (双眼皮手术) done this summer. She and many of her classmates believe bigger eyes look more beautiful.

As teenagers’ bodies grow and change, they become afraid of the smallest flaw(缺陷) in their looks. They are very worried about it. This can even influence their health.

According to Huxiu News, over 60 percent of girls refuse to take part in some daily activities such as going to school, because they feel bad about their looks. As much as 31 percent of teenagers do not want to speak up in class because they worry that others will notice their looks.

One of the main causes is advertising, TV shows and social media. Pictures of “perfect” faces and bodies are everywhere. They suggest that having large eyes, pale skin and skinny bodies is the only way to be beautiful. Magazines give tips about how to lose weight “in days”. Advertisements suggest that you should whiten your skin using certain products. And TV shows often make fun of overweight characters. Seeing all these things can make people believe that they should change their bodies.

So what should we do? According to Nancy Etcoff of the Harvard Medical School, “We need to help young people in many ways. These ways can include educating students about body confidence in school, as well as encouraging parents to talk to their kids about this topic. After all, beauty comes in all shapes and sizes,” Etcoff said.

It happens to all of us. It is the end of the term and your teacher gives you your report card. You look at it and your heart stops because you realize that your parents are going to be very angry. This is the classic case of a bad report card! There is nothing you can do to change the past. So, what can you do now?

Grades are how most schools evaluate（评价）students and they are pretty important. The problem is that we do not always get good grades we (or our parents) want. After a bad report card, it is important to figure out what to do next.

The first thing to do is to talk to your teacher. Find out how your grades are calculated（计算）. Is the problem a bad test, lack of participation（参与）in class, or a failure to complete homework? Next, if the problem is something you can solve on your own (such as not doing your homework), make a promise to change your behavior! Thirdly, if you have been studying hard and still get a bad grade, you probably need some extra help with your classes. Talk to your teacher and explain your situation. He or she will tell you where you can receive the extra help you need. Lastly, make a detailed plan of how you will improve your grades. Write down the plan and have it ready when you talk to your parents. That’s a good way to make your parents less angry.

While all parents want their children to get good grades, most understand that every report card is not perfect. The important thing is that you show your parents you have a plan to improve your grades for next time. Always remember, many of the world’s most successful people failed many times before they became successful. They learned from their failures, and you should, too!

Imagine having an ear made out of an apple. It seems like a crazy idea. But it could happen in the near future.

Canadian biophysicist Andrew Pelling used an apple to grow a human ear. He thinks fruit and vegetables can be used to cheaply repair human body parts in the future.

Scientists have been trying to grow organs in labs to replace our old ones. But it‘s a hard job. In the past, scientists have used man-made materials, animal parts and even dead people as scaffolds（支架）. But that has proved to be difficult and expensive.

Pelling and his team, however, found the apple to be a cheap and easy-to-use scaffolds.They first cut an apple into the shape of an ear. Then they used a special way to take out the apple‘s cells（细胞）and make it a scaffold. The team then added human cells to the apple, and watched it grow. “You can implant（移植）these scaffold into the body, and the body will send in cells and a blood supply and actually keep these things alive, ” Pelling said during a Ted Talk speech.

The team put the apple scaffold inside a living mouse and the mouse’s cells slowly take over the pieces of the apple.

Now Pelling is thinking of the other fruit, plants or vegetables to use.
