Why does the sky change colors?
What is the sky? How high is it? What color is it? What birds can live above it? These questions are difficult to answer, aren’t they?
In fact, the sky has no color. Then why does the sky look blue?
We know that there is air around the world. When plane fly, they need air to lift their wings. Planes can’t fly very high. That is because the air gets thinner when they go higher. The same will happen to us if we go high enough. If we go up about 1,200 kilometers from the earth, we’ll find no air there. Some birds can fly into the sky as high as a plane, but they cannot fly or live without air.
Looking up above us, you will see the blue sky with white clouds, It is usually light blue. The color would be bluer when you see on the top of a high mountain. And you will see fewer clouds in the sky between you and the sun.
Sometimes the sky doesn’t look blue. When the sun rises and falls, you will see red, orange, and other colors in the sky. Such are the most beautiful moments of the day.
Who can see the colors of the sky high above the earth? The astronauts! They can see those beautiful colors of the sky from the outer space. However, before flying into outer space, they sit in a spaceship high above the earth. And there is no air at all. The sky would be that dark and it’s color would be black.
Now you may understand that we see colors because the air scatters (使散射) the sunlight， Light travels through the air，without air， there would be no light or colors.
34. Plane can’t fly as high as possible because .
A. The sky is blue B. The wings are heavier
C. The sky has no color D.the air becomes thinner
35. When you stand on top of a high mountain, you will see .
A. More air B. Bluer skies C.more colors D.more cloud
36. In Huzhou, we might see many colors in the sky at during the day.
A. 6:00 a.m B.9:00 a.m C, 1:00 p.m D.3:00 p.m
37. The sky changes colors because .
A. it’s color itself B.the world is colorful
C.the sunlight has color D.the air scatters the sunlight

Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history? Many people would think of Confucius, whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2,000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution to the education today.
Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.
Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime.
Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.”
He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.”
Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. “A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others.” he said.

“A wise old owl sat on an oak. The more he saw, the less he spoke, the more he heard. Why aren’t we like that wise old bird?” --- Edward H. Richards.
We all need to learn to listen well. Listening is a learned skill, the same as speaking in public. It just takes much longer to learn! Listening is a skill we should be practicing every day.
Listening shows other that they are important. It’ s a sign of respect(尊重).If someone listen to you carefully when you are talking, it shows that they are really interested in what you are saying.
How do you practice listening? Here are some tips:
Put down whatever is in your hand. Are you in the middle of writing something? Put down the pen and start to listen. Are you reading something? Close it so that it will be impossible for you to look down and start reading again. Then put it down.
Turn off your computers. The computer will distract you from your job at hand -- listening.
Face the person you are speaking with. Facing the person you are speaking with will help you listen more carefully. It will also make the person feel that you find what he is saying important.
Mind your body language. Standing towards the speaker will show interest. Looking around the room shows you have no interest. Looking that speaker in the eye tells him that he is important.
Listening completely. Do not start making comments（评论）after the first words. Do not start thinking about your reply in your mind. Listen to the speaker carefully and try to understand what he is telling you.
