谁也不能阻挡我每天念英文！！

Dear Jim, Glad to hear you’ve started high school too! It’s really exciting, isn’t it? For the new term, I plan to get more involved in club activities. I’m joining the English Drama Club to improve my speaking, and the Robotics Club since I love building things. Of course, I’ll work hard on all subjects, especially math, which I find a bit tough. This summer, I prepared a lot for high school. I read some books on time management to balance studies and activities. I also practiced English by watching shows and talking to foreign teachers online. Besides, I bought a new notebook to organize my notes better. How’s your new school life? Looking forward to your reply! Yours, Li Hua

朗读文本： Have you heard of the Three-North Shelter Forest Program? It is a large-scale forest planting project in China. It was started in 1978 to protect the soil, water, and ecosystem of the northern part of China, prevent sandstorms, and promote sustainable development. The program covers an area of about 4.35 million square kilometers, which includes 13 provinces. The vegetation coverage in the region had increased from 5% in the 1970s to over 13% in 2020. This has significantly reduced the occurrence of sandstorms and improved the ecological environment of the region. The program has also brought social and economic benefits by providing job opportunities and promoting local industries such as ecotourism and environmental protection. Moreover, it has helped ease the effects of climate change. Overall, the Three-North Shelter Forest Program is a significant step towards addressing the environmental problems and promoting sustainable development in China.

朗读者：Hurdy 朗读文本： If your friends are happy, it turns out you’re more likely to be happy too. If your friends are overweight, you are likely to put on weight. These “friend effects”, the mutual effects among friends, have been shown in studies. And now researchers have found that you may also be influenced by your friends who do exercise often. The research shows that women tended to be influenced by the female runners in their networks. And less active runners tended to influence more active runners to run more. Even the behavior of one city’s runners could affect the behavior of runners in another city. If someone is influenced by and influences his social network in a strong way, he must take his social network into consideration when he changes his life style. In other words, if you want to insist on doing exercises, appeal to your friends and family to join you.
