Must-read Books That Are Hitting the Big Screen This Year
The Zookeeper’s Wife by Diane Ackerman
Starring: Jessica Chastain and Johan Heldenbergh Release Date: July 31, 2017
This true story is both heartbreaking and heartwarming. Ackerman artfully retells the story of Jan and Zabinski and how they used their zoo to save over three hundred people from the Nazis. After their zoo was bombed, they managed to hide people in animal cages, giving animal names to their guests and human names to their animals. This is one story we truly hope lives up to the hype （天花乱坠的宣传）on film.

If you’re wondering when you might get the flu, a new study indicates you should keep an eye on your local weather report.
According to a research published in the Journal of Clinical Virology, if you keep your eye on the weather and watch for the first major dip in the temperature, you can essentially mark your calendar in prediction for an outbreak of the flu.
To figure out how the weather and flu outbreak may be connected, researchers analyzed statistics of 20,000 people in an area over three seasons. The number of people who caught the flu was then compared with local weather data.
After each season, the team noticed one consistent finding: The first really cold period with low outdoor temperatures and low humidity (湿度) was always followed by a week of a mass influenza（流感） outbreak.
The researchers say that aerosol particles (气溶胶粒子) containing virus and liquid are more able to spread in cold and dry weather. So, in theory, if you sneeze or cough and the surrounding air is very dry, the air will absorb the moisture and the particles containing the virus keep spreading through the air for a longer period of time.
Luckily there are ways to keep off the illness regardless of the weather. Washing your hands, coughing into the crook (弯曲) of your arm and getting vaccine (疫苗) are the best ways to prevent the flu from spreading. People over the age of 65, pregnant women and young children are at the highest risk of developing complications (并发症) related to the virus, according to the CDC. 4. From the first paragraph we can infer that . A. people may easily fall sick B. nobody can predict when one gets flu
C. flu is often related to weather changes
D. weather report plays an important part in life
5. How did the researchers draw the conclusion of the study?
A. By analyzing the data. B. By doing questionnaires. C. By carrying out experiments. D. By making observation. 6. Why do people catch the flu easily in cold and dry weather? A. Cold and dry weather helps the spread of virus. B. The colder it is, the more kinds of flu there are.
C Gold and dry weather can prevent people from doing exercise. D. Low temperature can increase the number of aerosol particles. 7. What can we learn about from the last paragraph?
A. The vaccines for flu. B. The main ways to cure flu.
C. The most common kind of flu virus. D. The people who are easy to get flu.

Dear Liu Qian,
I’m sorry to hear that you feel distressed at your new class. I really understand you.
One reason, I think, is that you might be too shy to talk confidently with our classmates. Maybe you are afraid that they will make fun of your accent. So, it is no wonder you feel lonely at times. Here are things we can do to deal with the problem.
To begin with, try practising more Putonghua by answering the teachers’ questions in class. Secondly, sharing learning experience with our classmates frequently is a good way to make new friends. Also, I’ll invite you to more class activities and intoduce my friends to you. Hopefully, these will be helpful to you.
Looking forward to you adapting to the new school life as soon as possible.
Yours
sincerely,
