George Stephenson was born in 1781 in a poor family. He had to start work when he was only eight. When George was fourteen, he became his father’s helper. He spent a lot of time learning about engines. On holidays, he often took engines into pieces and studied each piece carefully. Soon he became a very good worker though he could not read or write.
He began to learn the English letters when he was seventeen years old. Every day after he did twelve hours of hard work, he walked a long way to have lessons from a young teacher.
On his eighteenth birthday, he wrote his own name for the first time in his life. George invented many things in his life. The train was the greatest one among them. Today when we watch or take trains from one place to another, we will think of this great man-------George Stephenson.

Dragon Boat Festival , also called Duanwu Festival, is celebrated on lunar(农历) May 5th. For thousands of years, the festival has been celebrated by eating Zong Zi and racing dragon boats. People hold the dragon boat races in memory of Qu Yuan, one of the greatest poets (诗人)in China. Qu Yuan was born in Zigui of Hubei Province over 2200 years ago. QuYuan was an honest person of the state of Chu, during the Warring States Period(475—221BC).He was upright(正直的)and wise.He wanted to bring his country peace and make the state stronger, but the country was in the hands of bad people, so he failed. At last, he was very disappointed .He ended his life by throwing himself into the Miluo River. It was said that people jumped from boats into the river and tried to save him . But it was too late. Also, they were very sad . They threw rice into the water to feed the dragons in the river. They hoped that the dragons would eat ZongZi instead of the poet’s body. Now we often read his poem Li Sao which is filled with deep love for his country. We can see the dragon boat races and had a kind of Chinese food named Zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival.

As the developing of the economy(经济) and the population growing, a lack (缺乏) of energy(能量) becomes more and more serious. In the modern world, we can’t live without energy. But do you know where energy comes from?
Nearly all energy comes from the sun, either in a roundabout (不直接的) way or straight from it, in the form of heat rays(光线) and light rays. The light from the moon also comes from the sun. The moon can be said to be like a large mirror which throws back the sun’s light to the earth.
Electrical energy comes from the sun in a roundabout way. For example, it can come from the power of water falling down a mountain. The water falls there as rain, and we know that rain is made by the sun’s heat evaporating on the earth’s surface. This water steam rises, condenses (凝结) on cooling, and falls as rain. The light and heat energy from coal also comes from the sun in a roundabout way. Coal was made by the rocks pushing on trees and plants which died millions of years ago. Those trees and plants grew with the help of sunlight, changing the sun’s energy into chemical energy. When we burn coal, some of this energy is set free.
Energy which we use to drive cars comes from petrol, which was also made with the help of the sun in a roundabout way. Plants and animals which ate the plants, died millions of years ago, and the parts of them that were left were pushed under the rocks in the earth. These parts left from dead animals and plants made petroleum (原油), from which petrol and oil are now formed.
In this way, we can say that the sun is the place where nearly all energy comes from, and that without the sun’s heat and light, there could be no life on earth.
