There are many wetlands in China and some of them have become the world's important wetlands．
The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them．They are in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province．They are home for many different kinds of animals．The world's largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve is in them．More than 700 Milu deer live freely there．There are not many red-crowned cranes in the world, but every winter you can see some in the Red-crowned Crane Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands．
The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low．There is a lot of rain and sunshine, too．They are really good places for wildlife．Offering(提供)food and home for some special kinds of animals is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands．Wetlands are important because they also prevent flood．But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and less space for wildlife．
Luckily, more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife．Every year, on February 2nd, many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands．

Cause and effect is one way to explain things that happen around us．Many things happen because something caused or influenced them to happen．Sometimes it is hard to look at a cause and find out what caused or influenced them to happen．Sometimes it is hard to look at a cause and find out what causes the effect．It may help you to start with the effect and use your reasoning(推理的)skills．Think about all the things you know that could be reasons for the effect you can see．
For example, you may see someone putting on a heavy jacket．This is the effect．To look for a cause, think to yourself, “What would take someone put on a heavy jacket?” Maybe the person is going outside into very cold weather．Maybe the person works in the penguin pen(企鹅圈养地)at Sea World．Maybe the person is going to visit an ice skating rink where the air is kept very cold．All of these things could be a cause for putting on a heavy jacket．
Now, think about a second example．The effect is a boy named Abi has to go to the head teacher's office．What are the possible causes? Maybe he bullied(欺负)another student．Maybe he is just being picked up early．Maybe he is being given a prize!
Here is another example for you to think about its cause and effect．Cait, 13, was trying to fall asleep when her 8-year-old brother, Doug, came into her room．He looked around a bit, but seemed really out of it．Then Doug went back into the hallway and stood there looking straight up at the hall light for quite a while．Little brothers can be very strange, but this was really much too strange．Cait's father appeared and explained that Doug was sleepwalking．What's the cause end effect, could you tell?

The London Olympic Games are coming soon．This summer, Chinese sports fans will be able to watch the exciting games in 3-D on CCTV．
When you watch 3-D movies or TV, you have to wear a special pair of glasses．The 3-D glasses make the people and the things on the screen look like they are in the room with you．
3-D, means having three dimensions：width, height and depth．3-D technology is based on the way the human brain and eye work．Because the pupils of a person's eyes are about 6.5cm apart, when we look at something, each eye sees it from different angle．Our eyes send the two pictures to our brain, and the brain puts them together．The small difference between the picture from the right eye and the picture from the left eye make us see depth．
While watching 2-D films, we don't have to wear the special glasses．We see the pictures in two dimensions, each eye get the same information．This is because there is only one way of watching it．
So the aim of 3-D technology is to get a different picture into each eye of the person．It uses two film projectors．One projects a left eye picture and the other projects a right eye picture．When we are in the cinema, we can see different pictures in each eye at the same time with the help of the 3-D glasses．
While watching 3-D films, we feel that we are actually in the same environment as the things we are watching．However, some people are against watching 3-D films．One of the reasons is the 3-D glasses makes the screen of the film or TV look darker．It is bad for eyes．What's more, people with eye problems may get headaches if they spend too much time watching 3-D movies, because their brains need to work harder to “read” the pictures．
