Many of us adults love taking selfies(自拍照)：on vacation, eating out, walking the dog, at work. And for some of us, the selfie has become an easy visual way to keep the running diary of our lives. This may be even more true for our kids.
In today’s world, many kids are not only taking selfies but also are using selfie technology as a way to express what they think and feel. How do they do this? By using their phones to speak the truth of the moment as they see it. And when they “speak”, they record more than their voices. They record themselves in their bedrooms, outside－wherever life has taken them. These words, whether they are actual words or visual expressions, are often very much from the heart. Sometimes they stay on someone’s phone or get deleted for something else. Our thoughts and feelings flow easily out into the world. Who knows where they might end up?
The girl in The Truth, a short film, keeps her diary and speaks out into her video camera or her phone. Maybe one of the most important messages she’s really sharing with the public is how strong the feelings, emotions and concerns are to kids as they move from childhood to adulthood.
Older people forget a lot of anxiety. We forget our early anger toward our parents, our fears about changing schools, or our pains at a best friend no longer being one. But there are lots of kids out there just beginning to experience all of the above and, at times, much more. My hope is that the girl in the film is a beacon(引路人) that helps kids feel stronger and more courageous(勇敢的) as they undertake(承担) all the universal(普遍的) steps of growing up. And I hope she will remind adults and all concerned with our kids, that it does take a village to support and encourage a kid. We all have a role to play. If you are a parent, listen and advise with intelligence(智力) and sensitivity. To all the other players in a child’s life, play by the golden rule: treat any kid who crosses your path with kindness, respect and helpfulness that hopefully you got growing up or that you wanted when you are growing up.

Using body language will make people more likely to be influenced by you. But they will only be persuaded if they also trust you. So it’s equally important to use your body language in a way that makes people feel connected. 36
Start with a smile
It sounds so simple, but a smile is powerful for you to connect with other people. Big smiles make people think you are warm and confident. People are always more willing to listen to your point of view if they like you. 37
Nod head
If you want people to say “yes” to you, get them nodding in agreement even before you ask a question. If you nod at people, they will feel the urge(强烈的欲望)to do it back. Start by nodding when they talk, as if you are agreeing with their statements. 38 When they are already nodding, they are much more likely to start agreeing with you .
Stand up
If you are standing up while other people you are talking to are sitting, you will gain the upper hand at once. 39 It is important not to lean in so much that they feel uncomfortable.
Lean in
40 If other people lean or step back, you have certainly shown that you are in control of others. If you want to be someone who has influence and persuasion, you need people to like you, not to be scared of you. (改编)
A. A smile is the first step in building a good relationship. B. You are successful in persuading others. C. Make sure you don’t stay too close to them.
D. Then, nod when you are making your own statements, and watch how they start nodding back. E. Remember you must take control of others whenever you talk with them. F. Standing above them makes them feel that you are more powerful. G. Here’s how to use your body language effectively（有效地）.

There have been in several animal TV programs amazing examples of concern, bravery and care between sometimes different and even unfriendly species(种类); this makes me learn that animals are not quite 41 from the human race when faced with certain 42 .
Once, I watched a program in which a lioness(母狮子) took 43 of an orphaned(无父母的)antelope baby; the nature leads this lioness 44 away from her group, 45 that other lions would kill her unusual baby easily. After a few days, both were 46 ; the lioness was 47 to make a kill(捕食) by herself, and she didn’t have any milk to 48 to the baby. This uncommon behavior attracted the 49 of some animal protectors that decided to 50 and record this unnatural relationship in the film.
In another case, a female hippo (河马) 51 a small antelope from the mouth of a crocodile; she stood beside the dying animal 52 to save his life by breathing into his mouth and pushing him 53 , forcing him to stand up and run away from the danger; she continued until the 54 antelope died.
In another 55 case, two lions saved the life of a small girl when several men were kidnapping (绑架) her; they were 56 and run after by the brave lions; although the lions had the small child within their reach and at their mercy(在他们掌握中), they stood at her side for hours 57 the small girl’s parents arrived.
Although these attitudes may be natural, I am sure animals can tell other creatures’ 58 and pain and be actually willing to do something to try to 59 . I can’t describe this behavior as a human 60 , but I think this willingness to help other suffering creatures may be natural not only to mankind, but also to some animals if a certain situation or emergency presents itself.

Dear Mary,
Glad to know that you have joined in the Chinese club in your school. You may find them hard to learn Chinese in the beginning. I hope you won’t get discouraged.
As we knew, Chinese will be useful to you in many ways. It can help you learning more about Chinese history and culture. You can communicate with Chinese people more conveniently. However, you will even get some opportunities to work in China.
To learn Chinese well, you’d better practise speaking as often as possibly, especially with native speaker. And listening to Chinese radio programs are a good way to improve your pronunciation. In addition, you can read some Chinese novels, that helps enlarge your vocabulary. I hope you would like to have try. If there is anything that I can do to help you, do tell me. (原创)
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
