This draws theattention of his guardian angel, Clarence Odbody. The angel showsBailey how different life would be for his family and his community if hewasn't around. When Bailey was 12, for example, his brother Harry fellthrough ice and Bailey jumped into the freezing (冰冻的) water to savehim. If Bailey had not been there, Harry would have died and wouldnever have become a war hero. This movie teaches people a lessonabout the power of kindness. Bailey sacrifices (牺牲) a lot of things for thewelfare (福利) of the town. He also tries to help people living in the town achieve (实现) their goal of having their own houses.

It can only be found deep in forestsover 1,800 km away from Beijing. Workers had to float (漂浮) the woodon rivers all the way north to Beijing. Stones were also transported to thepalace.

These might sound a bitstrange to you, but they're just some examples of what we call "fusionfood" (无国界料理). Fusion foods are dishes that combine (结合) two ormore different kinds of food into one dish. For example, the burger pizza has a normal pizza crust (面饼), but instead of putting pepperoni (意大利香肠) and vegetables on top of the cheese, you add ground beef (like youwould use to make a burger), ketchup, lettuce and tomato. Fusionrestaurants are popular in a lot of big US cities. In fact, they are oftenseen as trendy (流行的), since they try to be creative when combiningdifferent foods. Fusion food usually combines dishes that are fromdifferent parts of the world. For example, Korean tacos are tortillas (墨西哥薄饼) that are filled with kimchi (韩国泡菜).

NASA recently said that its Artemis program (阿耳特弥斯计划) will send a woman to the moon in 2024. It will be a great achievementto send a woman to the moon for the first time. But what happens whenwomen go into space? Can they handle it as well as or maybe evenbetter than men? The answer is a little bit of both, according toVarsha Jain, who works closely with NASA. On one hand, women aremore likely to feel sick when going into space however, men aremore likely to feel sick when returning Earth. Women tend to (倾向于)have blood pressure (血压) problems when they return to Earth, whilemen tend to have vision (视力) and hearing problems instead. Thesedifferences may come from their different hormonal balances (荷尔蒙平衡) or body changes. However, a specific (具体的) cause is still unknown.Women also have some advantages in space. For one thing, they tend tobe smaller, which means they use less oxygen (氧气) and take up lessspace in small spacecraft. Also, women often have better communication skills than men, which makes them better-suited (更适应) for longspaceflights.1. What do we know about the Artemis program?A.
