I know it may be hard to convince you,but let me try:Don't kill the next spider you see in your home.
   Why?Because spiders are an important part of nature and our indoor ecosystem—as well as being fellow organisms(生物)in their own right.
   People like to think of their living places as safely isolated from the outside world,but many types of spiders can be found inside.Some are accidentally trapped,while others are short-term visitors.Some species even enjoy the great indoors,where they happily live out their lives and make more spiders.These spiders are usually secretive,and almost all you meet are neither aggressive nor dangerous.And they may be providing services like eating pests—some even eat other spiders.
   My colleagues and I conducted a visual survey of 50 North Carolina homes and found that every single house we visited was home to spiders.The most common species we encountered were cobweb spiders and cellar spiders.They simply eat anything they can catch.Spiders regularly capture annoying pests and even disease-carrying insects—for example,mosquitoes.There's even a species of jumping spider that prefers to eat blood-filled mosquitoes in African homes.So killing a spider doesn't just cost it its life,it may take an important predator out of your home.
   Spiders are not out to get you and actually prefer to avoid humans;we are much more dangerous to them than vice versa.Bites from spiders are extremely rare.Although there are a few medically important species like widow spiders and recluses,even their bites are uncommon and rarely cause serious issues.
   If you truly can't stand that spider in your house,apartment,garage,or wherever,instead of killing it,try to capture it and release it outside.It'll find somewhere else to go,and both parties will be happier with the outcome.
   But if you can stomach it,it's OK to have spiders in your home.In fact,it's normal.And frankly,even if you don't see them,they'll still be there.So consider a live-and-let-live approach to the next spider you encounter.

  • 1."An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Similarly,if we drink a little more water every day,we may find that we need to go to the doctor less often.A healthy diet is made up of water and different kinds of foods.We know that healthy foods like fruits,vegetables and fish ,are important as they offer energy and fiber,without giving us much fat and sugar.But why is water important?
       The human body needs water to survive.Water is important as it carries poisons and waste out of our bodies.However,doctors advise us to drink plenty of water ,much more than the small amount we need to stay alive.
       Some doctors believe that water is important for health in all kinds of ways.They believe that many illnesses and health problems appear as a result of dehydration--a lack of water.Most people are dehydrated (脫水)at least some of time,although they probably don't know it.It is surprising to learn that if we feel thirsty,we are already in the first stages of dehydration.In fact,we are advised to drink water before we feel thirsty.
       These doctors think that health problems such as headaches,high blood pressure could be helped if people drink more water.They also believe that drinking more water can help people who are fat.Water contains no calories so it will not make us gain weight.If we drink water ,we will probably drink less sugary soft drinks.Doctors also believe that drinking more water may stop people from overeating.They say that many people think that they are hungry when they are,in fact,thirsty.Doctors suggest,therefore,that we eat less food and drink more water.
       There are still many health problems that cannot be solved by drinking water,so we should not stop going to see the doctor completely.

  • 2.How to Raise a Child Who Loves Reading Give your kids good books to read.
       By "good" I mean quality literature that makes kids think,not just entertains them.Some books can be fun.(1)
    Keep away from lightweight (內(nèi)容平庸的) books,because they may teach them to turn away from anything that makes their brains work too hard.A diet of lightweight books does not promote the patterns of thought that produce intellectual and personal excellence.
       (2)
    Kids love listening to their parents read,even as they get older,so don't stop reading aloud to your children just because they can read on their own.This is a perfect opportunity to challenge their abilities,vocabulary and worldviews by reading books.
       Remove distractions (使人分心的事物).
       With hand-held devices (3)
    Parents should have these devices powered down and phones put away,and ask them to pull out their books.Once kids finally get into their books,it creates the same quiet,peaceful atmosphere home.
       Talk about books with your kids.
       (4)
    Ask every family member,even the youngest,what they have read that day and what they've learned from it.This will arouse discussion and debate about the issues raised in the books.
       Give our kids paper books,not e-books.
       Studies have shown children keep information better when they read it on paper,as opposed to a screen,so avoid giving your child e-books to read.A paper book allows them to create a relationship with the book,to reread and to become familiar with a book's feel and smell.(5)


    A.Read aloud to your kids.
    B.Take chances to challenge your kids.
    C.That's where parental responsibility comes in.
    D.All these are very real parts of the reading experience.
    E.Parents should inform their kids of the harmfulness of hand-held devices.
    F.The dinner table is a great place to start reflective conversations about books.
    G.But it's important to teach kids to appreciate books that may take effort to consume.
