Do you know the man in the picture? He is William Lindesay, a British 1.(旅行者) and writer, who has been exploring(探索) the Great Wall—one of the human's most 2.(了不起的) building projects. Not even a Chinese knows the Great Wall of China as well as he does.
When, as a schoolboy, Lindesay 3.(期待) to explore the Great Wall, nobody took him seriously. But Lindesay 4.(真正地) made his dream come true, by spending 25 years on the Great Wall and has become one of the world's most famous 5.(专家) on its rich history. Lindesay now lives and works in Beijing. This year his new book has come out, The Great Wall Explained, with a lot of photos and 6.(文章).

Have you ever watched a film with your friends and thought, “How wonderful!” or had a meal with your family and said, “That's was the best!”?
Well, there may be a small secret(秘密) about why you enjoyed it so much. Our experiences are stronger if we share them with someone. That means good experiences become better, and bad ones become worse. That's according to a new study by Yale University.
Scientists did a small study on female(女性) college students. In the test they share chocolate with someone they thought was another participant(参与者). But in fact, it was a scientist. In each test, they got two pieces of chocolate. They ate one piece at the same time with the “participant” and another piece alone. The participants thought the chocolate was tastier and more enjoyable when they shared it with someone. Even though both pieces of chocolate were from the same box.
Scientists then did another experiment, this time with bitter,_unpleasant chocolate. Again, the participants thought the chocolate was bitterer than the piece they ate alone.
“When people think of shared experience, what usually comes to mind is being with friends or family,” said scientist Erica Boothby. We often don't know how much people around influence(影响) our decisions, according to Erica.
However, it does show that sharing things with a friend may just make your good way a little brighter. Because the study only looked at female college students, it doesn't mean the whole(全部的) picture.

“My dear dad, where are we going?” This has become the most popular question these days. It's a line from the theme song of Hunan TV station's reality show(真人秀) Where Are We Going, Dad?
“All of my classmates are big fans,” said Ning Yun,14, from Guangxi. “On Fridays, we remind(提醒) others: Don't forget to watch it tonight!”
In the show, five pairs of fathers and kids go to different places and finish interesting jobs. It's all about growing up. Clumsy(笨拙的) fathers learn to cook and look after their kids. The kids learn about teamwork and living and working by themselves.
In the show, Kimi, four years old, finds it hard to finish his work alone. “When I saw Kimi looking for his dad, I can't help laughing,” said Chen Yufang, 13, from Guangxi. “It reminded me of my first night at the school dormitory. I really felt the pain(痛苦) of growing up that night.”
When people see the fathers trying to help their kids, it also touches their hearts more or less. Tian Xiaofeng, for example, 14, from Jiangsu, said his father is like Guo Tao in the program. “He is really strict. And I was sad about it,” he said. But now he sees it in a different way. “Guo Tao's son looks strongminded(意志坚强的). I think his parents give him some good examples. And I guess my father just wants me to be like that,” he said.
On the journey of life, kids learn to grow up and adults learn to be better parents. Maybe we can plan a trip with our parents. Shall we go?
