11、ete skeletons (骨架)of several animals that no longer existed on earth. She didnt become famous for her discoveries at that time because she often sold her fossils to get money to support her family.In 1891, a young Polish woman named Marie Sklodowska traveled to Paris to study physics. She did so bec
12、ause she could not get a college education in Poland. She began working in the laboratory of a man named Pierre Curie. Marie and Pierre Curie got married and made many discoveries together.

18、atients who visited the facilitys center for sleep medicine. Every participant received a piece of paper and answered questions on it about their sleeping habits, their pets behavior, sleeping locations and how their pets affected their nightly sleep.The researchers found that 56 percent of the stud
19、y participants shared their bed or bedroom with their cat or dog. However, while 20 percent reported disturbed sleep because of their pets, 41 percent said that their pets presence in bed actually helped them sleep better.Those who reported sleeping more soundly when their pets were present said tha

Single sleepers were especially likely to report that sharing a bed with a cat or dog helped them get some shut-eye.“Participants described feeling secure, content and relaxed when
21、their pet slept nearby,” the study authors wrote. “The value of these experiences, although poorly understood, cannot be dismissed because sleep is dependent on a state of physical and mental relaxation.”A similar small study published by the researchers from the University of Alberta found that hav

56、ng going? I am very glad to learn that you are coming to China this summer. You said you are worried about having difficulty in communicating in Chinese. Now let me tell you something about how to learn Chinese well. First, you should be brave and confident to speak Chinese when you communicate with
57、 others. We Chinese are very friendly, so do not be afraid to make mistakes. Second, speak Chinese slowly and clearly when you talk to others. Only in this way can you make yourself understood easily. Finally, you can use drawings and body languages to communicate with others. As you know, body language of different cultures has a lot in common in the world. I hope my suggestions above can help you. Best wishes!Yours,LiHua.
