Why do people yawn(打呵欠)? It is a way to get more oxygen(氧气). When people are sleepy, they yawn to help
stay awake. This is because of fresh oxygen. Yawning is one thing that newborn babies do often.
When one person yawns, others often begin to yawn, too. Once a film of someone yawning was shown, and almost everyone in the theater started to yawn.
Try yawning in a room full of people. Watch how soon others begin to yawn. See if the fact that they are yawning makes you want to yawn more.
Human people are not the only creatures(生物) that yawn. Almost all animals do it. Even small mice and huge elephants have been yawning.
根据短文判断正误, 判断正（A）误（B）题。 21. Yawning is a way to get more oxygen. 22. Newborn babies do not know how to yawn. 23. Yawning can help you keep awake.
24. If you yawn, other people around you often yawn as well . 25. Very large animals do not yawn.

Nidhi Arora used to be the HR manager of a large Indian company. After sitting on lots of job interviews, she noticed a serious problem. Today’s young people are very clever. They do well in exams. However, they know little about current affairs（时事）. This is because they almost never read newspapers.
In Arora’s opinion, understanding what is happening around the world is important. It helps young people know what they need to do: What does the world need? Could I create that?
However, there was another problem. The newspapers adults read use difficult language. None could be given to a child. Arora decided to make a four-page paper for kids on her own. With encouragement from many mothers, the Children’s Post was born in 2017.
The paper covers a wide number of topics including international affairs, environment, technology and history. Readers can also find puzzles, poems, short stories and cartoons in the paper. Arora has managed to put together a team of seven editors. The editors decide the content. Sometimes, they ask their readers what they want to read more of and change accordingly. The completed copy then reaches Arora for further edits. She makes sure the facts and grammar are correct and that the language is simple.
Today, the Children’s Post is the only daily newspaper for children in India. More than 3,500 copies are sold every day. Arora is always thinking about improving her paper. She hopes every kid in India could develop the habit of reading newspapers.

Fun and practical, these apps are worth downloading *Forest
When working on your homework, you might sometimes find that your smart phone is distracting （使分心） you. An app called Forest can help you stay focused.

But if you close the app and play with your phone instead, the tree will wither and even die. Once you finish the task, your tree will be “planted” in the app. Gradually, you will have a forest! You can share your achievements with your friends and try to “plant” different kinds of trees.
