eggs stand for (象征) the start of a new life. The eggs come in special boxes.
They are wrapped (包装) in lovely silver paper.
When kids open them, they find a chocolate egg. Sometimes there is also candy inside the boxes. Kids get to eat a lot of chocolate at Easter—sometimes
more than they should. At Easter, kids also boil eggs and paint them different
colors.
Everybody knows about Santa Claus, but do you know about the Easter Bunny (复活节兔子)? He is a rabbit that kids love a lot. There are always
bunnies around during Easter. But what’s so special about them? Like eggs,

In every class, he and his classmates watch online course videos from the school. “It’s like I have classes together with students at Yucai,”Wang said.
Wang is not alone. Students from more than 200 schools in rural areas of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou are doing the same thing. They all use the online courses made by Yucai Middle School. The school started the online course program in 2007. It records (录制) courses, makes them into videos and offers them to other schools.
The online courses give students new ideas and broaden their horizons (拓宽视
野). They can learn from their peers (同伴) studying in the city. “I remember that a topic in English class was about volunteering.” said Wan Jinyuan, “Students shared a lot about their own experiences. But it was hard for me to talk about it because I had little experience. It encouraged me to do more.”
But students don’t completely rely on online course. They still interact with
(和……互动) teachers. In fact, the teachers edit (剪辑) th e videos before using them. “I cut off some parts, like the discussion parts,” said Zhang Xiaomin, Wang’s English teacher. “I will let my students discuss for themselves, rather than only watch. Then, if necessary, I will show them what their peers said in their discussions. We benefit (受益) a lot from it.” Teachers further explain key points that students don’t understand.
Also, students can watch the videos again after class.

When you’re not at home, many worries may start to crowd your mind. Did I turn the coffee maker off? Did I lock the door? Are the kids doing their homework or watching TV? With a smart home, you can forget all of these worries.
A smart home is a home with a communication network. This network connects(连接) devices (装置), such as lights and TV sets, and makes them to be controlled( 控制) from far away through electrical wiring( 电线), mobile phone communication or WiFi over the Internet.
More and more people may start to think about owning a smart home, because it makes life much easier. It can help keep your room at a certain temperature. It can record (录制) what happens inside the home and send the video to your phone. When you are on holiday abroad, you can use a smart home controller to switch on or off the electricity when necessary. Some smart homes can receive a visitor, allowing him to come in and offering him a drink. They can even feed the cat and water the plants.
Besides, smart homes are easy to fix. Most smart home technology and devices
are wireless and can be set up with a minimum ( 最少量) of tools, using only the guiding information. When there is a problem, you can deal with it yourself without paying a professional
(专业人士).
However, for home-users, the smart home technology is far from perfect. It can
be rather expensive to own the technology and the devices. Also, because the smart home system
( 系统) allows its owner to get home information from anywhere, it leaves the home easy to be attacked by hackers ( 黑客), who may secretly use or change the information in the system.
Now, many scientists are excited about the future of smart home technology. Imagine being able to get fashion advice from your mirror, or receive food shopping suggestions from your fridge. While there are others who worry that those smart devices will make people lazier and lonelier. Whatever it is, one thing is for sure — smart home technology will change the way we
live and work.
