Weeks before Tomb-Sweeping Day on April 4 this year, hundreds of qingtuan were sold each day. The snack was still a must-have for many people.
In the southern part of China, eating qingtuan at the beginning of spring is a kind of tradition. Chinese people started to eat it more than 2,000 years ago. It is made of sticky rice（糯米）and red bean paste（红豆沙）, and is famous for its softness, freshness and sweetness. The secret behind its mouth-watering taste is one of its materials-mugwort leaves（艾蒿叶）. The plant is mainly found in the Yangtze River Delta（长江三角洲）where it has perfect conditions to grow.
People in this area usually put qingtuan on the tombs（墓）of their dead family members to cherish the past memory. Making qingtuan is also a chance for family members to get together at home. It really takes time and effort to make the snack.
Now, qingtuan has already spread its special taste to the northern part of China. Li Yuan, a 30-year-old engineer who grew up in Zhejiang Province, brought qingtuan back to Beijing where he works. “It tastes different in and out of my hometown, he said.” There’s no place like home.
Qingtuan has many different tastes inside it, such as apples and bean milk, to meet customers’ tastes. The difference of the taste shows that it’s getting more and more popular across the whole country.
Even though there is warm weather and green leaves in spring, the season wouldn’t be complete without a taste of qingtuan.

Plants and animals are largely made of water. So are humans. They need to keep enough water inside them, or they could die.
We get some of the water we need by eating food that has water in it. Drinks, such as milk and tea, are mostly water, too. A person needs water every day. If we go without water for three or four days, we will lose too much water from our bodies. In very hot weather, we could lose this water in just one day.
What does water do to help our bodies? Water helps to take the nutrition（营养）from food to our bodies. It also helps to take the wastes away from different parts of our bodies.
In our homes, we also need water for many things. We need water for cooking, washing and flushing（冲水）the toilet. About three quarters of the water is used in the bathroom and toilet. The rest is mainly used in the laundry（洗衣房）and kitchen.
___________It may come from a lake or a river. It may come from the sea, from the rain and snow or from the underground. Water rises from rivers and seas to make clouds, and then falls again as rain and snow. The water you drink has been around for millions of years. It just keeps being recycled.
Many people work hard to make sure we always have clean water in our homes. Water is very important for all living things, so we should use it carefully.

Studying is usually not a happy task, especially when there are so many things you can do for fun. The balance（平衡）between work and play is a lifelong matter. Are you feeling tired and bored when you study? What should you do if you're not interested in study? Here are ways you could do to deal with the problem.
Change your thoughts. If you're lack of passion（缺乏热情）for study, just think about your future. Only good grades can give you a chance to achieve your dreams. Good grades will help you get into your dream high school and college. No matter how old you are, you're always growing and learning.
Work hard to achieve your dreams. Study is teaching you an important lesson—You must work for what you want to achieve. Winning a game, passing a test, doing something difficult ... These are all rewarding（值得的）experiences because of the time you spent and the effort you made. The harder you work, the happier you'll be.
Relax yourself at times. You don't need to study as often as you think you should do. I am not telling you not to study—You still should, but you can try studying less if it doesn't influence your grades.
Find your favorite subjects. Discover your interests and develop them carefully. Keep studying and stay healthy.
