This week we received a question from Linda in Nigeria.
Question: Could you please tell me the differences between “please” and “kindly” Some people use the two words together, “please kindly help”.
—Linda, Nigeria
Answer:
Dear Linda,
Thank you kindly for writing to us.
“Kindly” can be an adverb (副词), a word that usually describes a verb (动词). If your teacher says, “Kindly hand in your homework.”, she is using “kindly” as an adverb to make a polite request. Another way to use the word as an adverb is: “The animal doctor always treats our pets kindly.”
“Kindly” is also an adjective. If someone helped you at the post office, you might say, “A kindly man helped me mail my letter.” There, “kindly” describes “man” which is a noun (名词). You could also use the word “nice” to express the same idea.
“Please” can be an exclamation or a verb. It can also be used to make a request politely: “Could you please pass the salt ” “Please give me your homework.”
And, Americans almost always use “please” when making a request in the form of a statement as opposed to (相对于) a question: “Give me two tickets, please.” “Please, sir, help us.” “I hope this answer pleases you.” —there, I used it as a verb.
“Kindly” visit our website again for more lessons!

People know animals do have feelings, but they are not sure if these feelings are correctly understood. In recent years, scientists have done research about the feelings of cows, frogs and pandas. ▲ It says that humans can tell whether a chicken is happy or sad by listening to its calls.
The researchers put a bowl behind a door. Inside the bowl, sometimes, there was something chickens love to eat, such as rice or insects. Sometimes, there was nothing. When the chickens saw food behind the door, they seemed happy and produced fast and loud sounds, known as food calls. When there wasn’t food, the chickens made low and long noises to express disappointment. The researchers recorded all these sounds and studied their waves.
Then the researchers chose 16 recordings of such chicken noises. Half were from the chickens seeing the food and half were from the chickens finding no food. The recordings were played to 194 volunteers. Sixty-nine percent of the volunteers correctly understood whether the chickens were feeling happy or not and some of them even had no experience of taking care of chickens.
The result shows that humans have the natural ability to understand the feelings of chickens. Hopefully, this finding can bring about new technology to help with chicken-raising, a big industry (产业) in many countries. Some scientists are already working on a smart computer program that can identify chickens’ feelings. This is good news for farmers who want to make the birds happier and healthier.
21. Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 1
A. Humans may not like animals. B. Scientists know nothing about it.
C. Nobody knows why this happens. D. A new study adds chickens to the list.
22. What sound do chickens make when they see food
A. A fast and loud sound. B. A slow and happy sound.
C. A fast and disappointed sound. D. A low and long sound.
23. How did the volunteers help with the research
A. By listening to the chicken calls. B. By taking care of the chickens.
C. By finding food for the chickens. D. By making the chickens happy.
24. What does the underlined word “identify” mean in Paragraph 4
A. Control. B. hide. C. Recognize. D. Hurt.
25. What is the best title for the passage
A. Chickens’ Food Calls B. Happy Chickens, Sad Chickens
C. Farmers’ Best Choice D. Smart Farmers, Healthy Farmers

Short videos are a new way for people to get different ideas and information on the Internet. The people of all ages have fun watching them on their phones. Nearly all of them are about five minutes long, even just a few seconds.
Short videos do have some good points. On the one hand, they can help people learn new things easily and quickly. People can concentrate (集中注意力) better on these videos because they are much shorter. On the other hand, short videos can even help people make money. For example, more people in the countryside can sell their things online by using short videos. This new way can make a big difference to their life and work.
However these videos also come along with some problems. Spending too much time on the videos takes time away from studying and working. Many children and even adults got into watching them. They hardly ever take part in outdoor activities.
In my opinion, on the one hand, short videos can be a valuable tool for our children to explore the world. They provide a quick way for children to learn new things. This can be particularly helpful in expanding (拓宽) their knowledge and interests. On the other hand, we still need to be careful with what we see online and not believe everything we watch. Especially for our children, they are not old enough to judge what is right and what is wrong.

How reading improves my English
Reading plays an important role in my English learning.
First, reading helps improve my spoken English. By reading aloud, I can practice my pronunciation. Second, reading develops my thinking ability. I often predict what will happen next in a story, which makes me think actively. Moreover, reading makes my writing easier. I learn new words and sentence structures from the passages I read, which I can then use in my own writing.
In a word, reading is a great way to enhance my overall English skills.
