Lily is the daughter of an inventor, and his grandfather has Parkinsons disea
16、se. After Lily noticed that her grandfather spilled his drinks, she decided to make a special cup for him. Lilys cup has three legs, so its harder to knock over than the common cup.

23、time,by the time you have stated your name or shaken hands,the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are So how do you make a good first impression?All things grown up tell you such as being polite,and being welldressed are very importantHowever,the most important t

29、e medicine while others drink herbal tea or chicken soup. Usually you feel better after a week. On the other hand, the flu can be much more dangerous. It usually gives you fever. Sometimes it can cause death. According to an American magazine, the worst flu killed about 50 million people from 1918 t
30、o 1919. Dont worry. If you get a flu vaccine(疫苗), it can stop you from getting the virus(病毒). Flu vaccines work by giving the body a small amount of flu viruses. This causes your body to have antibodies(抗体). So next time you get the flu, the antibodies should help you. The flu virus changes every fe
