I grew up in a small town. My father raised chickens and ran a construction company. I was only 10 years old when my dad gave me the responsibility of feeding the chickens and cleaning up the stable. He believed it was important for me to have those jobs to learn responsibility. Then, when I was 22, I found a job in Natchbill at a country music club called the Natchbill Palace, I washed dishes and cooked from 4:00 p.m to 9:00 p.m and then went on stage and sang until 2:00 in the morning. It wasn’t long before I became known as a singing cook. I had been rejected(拒绝) so many times by record companies that it was hard not to be discouraged. One night, a woman executive(董事) from a company named Warner Brothers Records came to hear me sing. When the show was over, we sat down and talked and after she left, I said to myself it was one more rejection. A few weeks later, my manager received a phone call—Waner Brothers wanted to sign me to a record deal. Soon after, I release(发行) my first record in June 1986. It sold over 2 million copies.

A fish that lives in America can live out of water for months at a time, similar to how animals got used to land millions of years ago, a new study shows.
The Mangrove Rivulets, a kind of little fish, lives in small pools of water. When their living place dries up, they live on the land, said Scott Taylor, a researcher in Florida.
The fish can grow as large as three inches. They group together and breathe air through their skin before they can find water again.
The new scientific discovery came during a trip.
“We were travelling for fun. and one day I kicked over a log (圆木) and the fish came out.” Taylor told reporters by telephone. He said he would make his study on the fish known to the public in an American magazine early next year.
In lab tests, Taylor said he found the fish can live up to 66 days out of water without eating.
Some other fish can live out of water for a short period of time. The walking catfish found in Southeast Asia can stay on land for hours at a time, while lungfish (肺鱼) found in Australia, Africa and South America can live out of water, but only in a not active (活波的) way. But no other known fish can be out of water as long as the Mangrove Rivulets and keep active, according to Patricia Wright, a biologist at a Canadian University.[来源:学&科

Can you write down a Chinese word being read to you? It can be difficult, e 1. when the word is not included in most dictionaries.
Lu Jialei, 14, from Hangzhou Foreign Language School, w 2. the CCTV Chinese Character (汉字) Spelling Contest on Oct 18, 2013.
About 160 people competed. The host read a word to the contestant (参赛选手), explained its meaning and gave sample sentences. The contestant was required to write d 3. the word.
Winning the contest was a “surprise” to Lu Jialei. “I am not the smartest one,” she said. “But I pay a 4. to details.”
To prepare for the contest, she and her teammates studied the Modern Chinese Dictionary for 10 days. There are more than 56,000 entries (词条) i 5. characters, words and phrases in it.
She also has a secret weapon (武器). She studied h 6. Chinese characters were structured (构成).
In the final, judges gave her the word wanluan and said it means graceful and pretty.“I’ve never h 7. of that word!” said Lu. But she made a good guess. “Characters meaning pretty often have ‘女’ in it, w 8. many characters pronouncing luan have ‘亦’. So I wrote it down: ‘婉娈’,” she said.
This secret weapon came from her good r 9. habits.
“When others pay attention to the plot of a story, she looks at how writers use words and sentences to express themselves,” said Su Yunsheng, Lu’s Chinese teacher.
Su is happy to see students like Lu find the b 10. of Chinese language.“Learning to write Chinese characters is an important part of inheriting (传承) culture,” said Su.
