Here’s a story from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz to share with you!
Dorothy was walking along the yellow road when she saw a scarecrow standing in a field. His old hat was pushed to one side, and his painted face looked strangely friendly. When Dorothy came closer, one of his eyes seemed to wink (眨眼).
“Did you speak ” Dorothy asked in surprise. “No,” said the Scarecrow, “but I would like to.”
Dorothy helped him down from the pole (杆). The Scarecrow moved his arms and legs happily, as if he had just found the world. Then he told Dorothy his great trouble: his head was full of straw (稻草), so he believed he had no brain.
“I want to go to the Emerald City,” Dorothy said, “The Wizard may help me get home.”
“Then I will go with you,” said the Scarecrow, “Perhaps he can give me a brain.”
As they walked, Dorothy noticed something strange. The Scarecrow said he was silly, but he asked questions carefully. When the road became rough (崎岖的), he thought of a safer way across. When Dorothy felt worried, he spoke gently and helped her keep going.
“You seem to think quite well,” Dorothy said.
The Scarecrow shook his head. “That cannot be true. If I had a brain, I would know it.” Dorothy did not argue. She only smiled and walked beside him…

In spring, big sandstorms often trouble people in northern China. They mainly come from Mongolia. Warm and dry weather is the main reason. Strong winds, sand areas and changing weather are the three main causes. However, we have useful ways to prevent them. Thanks to China’s Three-North Shelter Forest Program (三北防护林), sandstorms happen less often now.
Rain and Rescue in Central China—By the Numbers
When a disaster happens, acting quickly can save lives. In May 2026, serious floods and landslides hit some places in Central and Southwest China, including Hubei, Hunan and Guizhou. Local governments (政府) took action at once and carried out emergency plans (应急预案). Firefighters, police, doctors and other workers worked as a team to move people to safety.
They used boats and trucks to get people out of the floodwater. Doctors built small medical stations to look after the injured. Workers repaired phone lines so people could contact their families. Meanwhile, volunteers from nearby cities sent food, water and clothes to people in trouble. All people tried their best to fight against the disaster.
This shows that quick emergency plans and good teamwork among different groups are the best ways to keep people safe and cut down losses (损失). When everyone works together, we can act faster and help more people in time. No one can fight against natural disasters alone.

I strongly recommend this book to you. Reading good books opens our mind. Let’s enjoy reading and grow up with good books.
