New rules and behavior standards (行为规范) for middle school students came out in March.

②________. Have you ever thought people could live on the moon? Maybe you’ll find a new planet someday. Don’t look down on new ideas. You should welcome them because new ideas make life better for everyone.
Protect yourself. Has a thief ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don’t let it happen to you. If you have to go back home late, you should let your parents know.

I cannot get high marks(高分). Sometimes, I cannot understand what the teacher says in class. How I hope I can have a Chinese pen friend.
Jim: I am too short. I am only 1.4 meters tall. I like playing basketball, but they all say I cannot be a good basketball player. How can I be as tall as all my friends? Can short boys play basketball? I hope someone can teach me how to be a good guide(后卫).

Danny: I need friends. I am sad because I don’t have many good friends to chat with. I am not good at talking. And my face turns red when I am with many people. But I really want to have many friends. Can you tell me how to make friends with other children?

Nowadays, stopping food waste is of great importance.
Over 30 percent of food goes to waste. Supermarkets throw away food that is not sold before its sell-by date, while families throw away food that they can't finish eating. In fact, it's hard for people to realize how much work goes into the food we eat every day. That makes food waste a big problem around the world.
As we throw food away, there are still 820 million people living in hunger around the world. And 3.1 million of them die from hunger each year. The COVID-19 pandemic (大流行) has made the situation even worse. With many countries no longer transporting (运输) food to other countries during this time, 10000 more children are dying of hunger each month.
To stop food waste, some people have come up with great ideas. Take a look for yourself.
Food bank
The world's first food bank was created in the US in 1967. People could donate extra food and also take the food home if they could not afford to buy any for themselves. In Shanghai, there is a "shared fridge" in some communities. It stores (储存) food that is donated by nearby markets and restaurants. It is free for anyone to take.
Pay as you like
A UK company called The Real Junk Food Project says that people still can eat food that has passed its sell-by date. They collect this food from supermarkets and sell it in cafes. You only have to pay as much as you feel is necessary.
If you don't want to spend money, you can volunteer at the cafes instead. There are now 125 Real Junk Food cafes worldwide. And the number is growing quickly.
Buy less
What else can we do to stop food waste? The answer is simply buying less food. There are millions of people around the world who still don't have enough to eat. We should be more careful about how we shop for food.
Share food that you cannot finish and waste less. Saving food can save us all.
