| Recently, children"s literature (文学) has become more and more popular. In fact, children"s literature has been welcomed by both children and adults. People have tried to find out why adults love children"s literature just like children themselves. But there is no final answer. Children"s literature is very different from adult"s literature. Most of it is fantasy (幻想). That means children can use their imagination. They can enjoy the fantasy world, which is never boring. The most important thing is that the world is bright and hopeful. In the fantasy world, dead people can be alive again and broken legs can grow once more. Right always beats wrong in the end. Children"s literature can also influence children a lot in education. When they read, their knowledge is increased and children know more about the truth. For a child who just learns to read, understanding the meaning of a word may be greater than learning the word itself. Children"s literature is not only for children. A large number of adults like it too. Not only young adults, parents and teachers, but also other people of all ages enjoy it. Both children and adults who love children"s literature can get much pleasure from it. | |||

| English is spoken as a first language by most people in the USA, Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and Canada. However, English is spoken all over the world. It is the main language in over 60 countries, including India, Singapore and many of the Caribbean and Pacific islands. In these places English is spokenas a second language. English is also an international language in many other countries, like China and Japan. People in these countries use it for business, and travelers to these countries use English when they get there to communicate. Other people may learn English because they enjoy reading books in English, listening to British or American music or watching American films. English has changed a lot over the years and still goes on changing. It is no longer right to talk about British English or American English if the speakers come or don"t come from those countries. People in Japan and Korea, for example, may use the American spelling but may not sound like Americans. English will probably be the most widely used language in the world by the end of the 21st century. This language no longer belongs to British, American or Australian speakers. It be-longs to anyone in the world. So, as a middle school student of English today, think about how you can use this language. After you leave school, you will almost certainly need it. | |||

| The most common unlucky number is thirteen. People don"t like to live in a house that is number thirteen. People don"t like to have parties with thirteen people. People don"t like to do important things on the thirteenth of the month. Also, when you add the Japanese unlucky numbers together-nine and four-they make thirteen. One English teacher told his students a story about "thirteen". The classroom was number thirteen. At the end of the lesson one of the students changed the number of the room to 12A. In the afternoon, another teacher wanted to find Room 13. He didn"t know about the changed numbers. He walked around the school for half an hour. At last, someone told him about the changed number-that Room 12A was Room 13. There aren"t many business meetings on the thirteenth of the month especially when the thirteenth is on a Friday. Friday is always unlucky. Adam and Eve left the Garden of Eden on a Friday. Jesus Christ died on a Friday. (There were thirteen people at His Last Supper.) In Europe, they killed criminals on Friday. For some people, unlucky numbers do the opposite things. My elder brother was born on the thirteenth. He passed his exams on the thirteenth. He married on the thirteenth. He became a pilot on the thirteenth. It was always a lucky day for him. | |||
