Thats how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world -and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.

Though the hummingbird is no bigger than a bee and weighs only 2 to 3 grams, it can fly as fast as 50 meters in a second. It can fly forwards (向前) as most birds do, and it can fly backwards as well. The strangest thing about it, however, is that it can stay still in the air, just like a helicopter. Whenever a hummingbird needs food, it will fly slowly towards a flower. It wont stand on the flower, as bees do, but just hangs to the flower and then begins to sunk (吸吮) the honey from inside the flower with its needle-like beak.The hummingbird is very particular in building its nest (巢). It takes great trouble to choose materials. It likes soft ones better than hard ones.

First of all, Valentines Day is not a holiday from work. No one gets a day off. In many countries it is observed by sending cards to your friends and candy or flowers to your husband or wife if youre married, or to your boy friend or girl friend if youre not married. In Japan, some girls even give their fathers chocolates.Why is this holiday for people in love called Valentines Day?One explanation comes from a Christian man whose name was something like“Valentine”. He lived at a time when the Roman Emperor refused to allow any Roman soldiers to get married for any reason. Many couples came to Valentine to be married. So he would secretly marry them in a Christian ceremony. He was discovered and put in prison by the Emperor. One tradition says that he wrote notes to his friends by marking on leaves and then throwing them out of the window of his prison. The leaves were shaped like a heart. Valentine was killed on February 14th and Valentines Day recalls his tragic death.On Valentines Day, American elementary school children make or buy Valentine cards, write the name of a classmate on them, and take them to school and put them in a special Valentines Day box. And then on that day the box is opened, the cards are taken out and given out.1. Which of the following is true about Valentines Day?A. It is observed by sending flowers to ones husband or wife.B.

Thousands of people travel around the city on the underground every day. During the rush hour it is very crowded.In order to solve this problem, people have tried many ways，but they hardly work.Recently a new way will be tried.In England, people used to stand on the right of escalators(自动扶梯)，allowing others to walk on the left, which is polite.The rule has been followed for a long time.But there is some changes to this rule. People can stand on both sides of escalators at Holborn station. As one of the busiest stations of London Underground, Holborn was the first station in the country to ask travelers to stand on both the right and left sides of escalators. A test was carried out first.The test which lasted for three weeks showed that standing on both sides actually reduced congestion by 30 percent 16,220 people an hour are able to travel on the escalator during rush hours compared to the usual 12,745 when both standing and walking are allowed.Transport for London(TfL) hopes the new standing rule will make the most of wasted space on longer escalators, where most people choose to wait on the right. London Underground operations director Peter McNaught said, “The etiquette(礼节) on London Underground is for customers to stand on the right of escalators, allowing others to walk on the left. However, few customers choose to walk on longer escalators such as at Holborn, so much of the lefthand side is unused. We hope that this can lead to reduced congestion at Holborn and make journeys easier for all of our customers.”()6.
