Britain was once covered by thick forests， home to many animals which no longer live here． There were wolves， bears and wild cattle with less than four million people． They lived in small villages protected by wooden walls from the animals outside．

However， all this changed． Now Britain's population has increased to 65 million． Three﹣quarters of Britain consists of fields， towns or cities． Although 25% of land is countryside，new methods of farming mean that there are fewer birds and small animals than ever before． Britain is one of the few countries in the world without a large wild carnivore（食肉动物）．

Some people want to change this． Some say that Britain needs to become more natural again and suggest trees and plants that once grew in Britain should be allowed to grow again． They even say that large wild animals which have not lived in Britain should be helped to return and live wild． They call this " rewilding"．

Not everyone agrees． In the last twenty years， over one million trees have been planted and there are plans for more﹣but wild animals？ Some people ask if wolves will attack sheep or even humans． They are also angry that rewilding might mean an end to walking in the hills many people enjoy． So far， there are no wolves or bears in Britain's forests﹣but soon there might be!

5G networks have been considered as one big thing for this century． They allow people to get faster services． Downloading information takes only seconds， instead of minutes．

But no true 5G phones are able to be used now． It won't work with 5G until such services are built． Users will need an adapter to bring in 5G signals． There's completely no need for users to worry about the safety of 5G signals．

Where will we probably see 5G first？ The answer is in our living rooms． The speeds，about 20 times faster than the standard home Internet connection，are very likely to do wonders in our living rooms． Many users are tired of spending ＄100 or more monthly in booking cable（有线的） TV． They no more choose cable TV and begin to use streaming（在线播放） services connected to their broadband（宽带） service instead．

Besides faster access，connectivity might get a little cheaper in future for users only if a complete 5G network is set up． However， the cost of programs and apps will go up． Meanwhile， users are in great need of ordering more monthly services． Comparatively speaking， users are likely to pay more for 5G services．

"I will learn Chinese!" This idea jumped into my head． It was born of something deeper inside． The idea has changed my life completely． When other people asked me why， I often joked that I was inspired by the nice tank of goldfish in the Chinese restaurant my family frequented（频繁光顾） when I was young． In fact， I started studying it because I was always attracted to Chinese culture， and learning the language is the key to achieving my dream of travelling around China．

I was lucky for many reasons． Back in 2010， Chinese was not as popular with foreigners as it is today． However， my family lent me strong support from my first year abroad in China． Even if they cannot see me often and miss me so much， I still have their support． I was also very fortunate that a Confucius Institute opened． I will always thank for its excellent staff and all the great people I met there．

Ni hao! The word "hello" in Chinese was the first word I learned in my first Chinese class． After class I was filled with enthusiasm and couldn't stop thinking about "ni hao" and all the new words yet to come． Not only were many more words and phrases waiting， but also the experiences I never expected．

What is the sky？ How high is it？ What color is it？ What birds can live above it？These questions are difficult to answer， aren't they？ In fact， the sky has no color． Then why does the sky look blue？

We know that there is air around the world． When planes fly， they need air to lift their wings．Planes can't fly very high． That is because the air gets thinner when they go higher． The same will happen to us if we go high enough． If we go up about 1.200 kilometers from the earth． we'll find no air there． Some birds can fly into the sky as high as a plane， but they cannot fly or live without air．

Looking up above us， you will see the blue sky with white clouds． It is usually light blue．The color would be bluer when you see on the top of a high mountain， And you will see fewer clouds in the sky between you and the sun． Sometimes the sky doesn't look blue． When the sun rises and falls， you will see red， orange， and other colors in the sky， Such are the most beautiful moments of the day．

Who can see the colors of the sky high above the earth？ The astronauts! They can see those beautiful colors of the sky from the outer space． However， before flying into the outer space， they sit in a spaceship high above the earth， and there is no air at all． The sky would be that dark and its color would be black．

Now you may understand that we see colors because the air scatters（使散射） the sunlight．Light travels through the air． Without air， there would be no colors．
