(http://www .chinadaily.)
Save Wetlands An important meeting on wetlands kicked off on Saturday in Wuhan, China. Wetlands are a natural water holding system that can make polluted water clean and prevent floods. The water is home to many kinds of animals. Birds use wetlands seasonally during their migration （迁徙) .

Have you watched news on TV or read newspaper recently It has been a difficult time for people in California, US during the past month. As we all know, wildfires have spread through much of the state. According to CBS, at least 31 people have died so far. This makes them the most terrible wildfires in California so far.
Wildfires are uncontrolled fires. They usually happen in areas where few people live. They are the most common in wooden areas in the US, Canada and Australia. They are also known as forest fires or grass fires, or as bush-fires in Australia.
Lightning and volcanic eruptions(火山爆发) can cause wildfires. .However, 90 % of wildfires are caused by people. According to the US National Park Service, burning campfires and garbage debris(碎片)，cigarette butts and acts of arson(纵火) can easily cause wildfires.
Dry and hot weather, as well as wind, creates perfect wildfire conditions. They help wildfires spread quickly and last for weeks.
Wildfires can bum at over 900°C and reach heights of more than 50 meters. Wildfires can move at a speed of up to 23 kilometers an hour, burning everything — trees, bushes, homes, even people, in their path.
The fires are also dangerous to animals. In Australia, koalas can’t get enough water from tree leaves because of wildfires. They have to leave their trees and find water somewhere else.
But sometimes, fires can be helpful for some plants. Heat from the fires makes some fungi (真菌), such as morel mushrooms(羊肚蘑), grow better. People can find more of them in the wild after a fire.
Hope that wildfires will never happen again.

37．Don’t do these when you have a fever. A fever means an increase in body temperature over37.3℃—is a common sign of illness. But recently, it has caught uncommon attention: It can be a sign of catching COVID-19. Whatever the cause is, here are some things you should remember if you develop a fever.
Don’t have certain drinks. Alcohol (酒精), soda (苏打)and caffeinated (含咖啡因的) drinks should be avoided when you have a fever. They cm cause your body to lose water when it really needs a lot of water.
Do not dress too warmly or put yourself in a place that is too hot. This can influence the body’s ability to regulate (调节) its temperature and make your fever worse.
Don’t double your medicines. Although fever-reducing medicines are very useful for treating fever, taking more than the recommended amount (推荐量) can put yourself in great danger and even death.

Don’t forget to drink water, A fever will increase the number of breaths, causing water loss. The body also sweats (出汗) more as it regulates its temperature. What’s more, people usually drink less water when they have a fever, which finally causes the body to lose water faster.

Dear Mike,
Thank you for telling me about your problem. At the same time, I am sorry to hear that you are having these problems. I truly know how you feel and let me tell you some of my advice.
First, it’s best to sit down and communicate with your brother Nick. You need to tell him since your parents ask you two to help with housework, he needs to do his part in cleaning this new house. Besides, you can explain to him that you are busy, and you missed the activities in your volunteer club last week, you don’t want to miss again this week. So, you need his help to work together to clean up the new house. Finally, if your brother Nick can not understand you or doesn’t want to share housework with you. I think you’d better tell your parents and ask them to talk with Nick.
I hope my advice may be helpful to you. If you still have problems, remember I’m always here to help you. Hope everything goes well with you!
