In the last years of the Warring States period, the State of Qin attacked the
State of Wei on a large scale repeatedly and occupied large areas of land, for the State of Wei was too weak to defend itself. In 273 B.C., the Qin army launched a more serious attack upon the State of Wei than ever. The king of the State of Wei gathered his officials, and asked with a worried look if anyone could propose a way to defeat the Qin army. After years of chaos caused by the wars, the officials trembled when fighting was mentioned, and no one dared to speak of resistance.
At the critical moment when a large enemy force was bearing down upon the border, most of the officials persuaded the king to use for peace, at the cost of giving away to the State of Qin the large area of land north of the Huanghe River and south of the Taihang Mountain. However Su Dai, a counselor, did not agree. He hurried up to the king and said: \Majesty, they don't think about the interests of the country at all. It is just because they are afraid of death that they ask you to sue for peace by betraying the country. Of course you can temporarily satisfy the ambition of Qin, but it will never stop attacking us until our land is totally given away.\
He added.\out the fire with water, but he would not listen. Instead, he carried a faggot to put out the fire, only to make the fire fiercer. Isn't it similar to carrying faggots to put out a fire if you agree to sue for peace at the cost of the land of the State of Wei?\

Did you ever look up at the moon and think you saw a man’s face there？When the moon is round and full，the shadows of the moon mountains and the lines of the moon valleys sometimes seem to show a giant nose and mouth and eyes. At least，some people think so.
If there were a man on the moon — instead of mountains and valleys that just look like the face of a man — what would he be like?
He would not be like anyone you know. He would not be like anyone anybody knows. If the man on the moon were bothered by too much heat or cold the way Earth people are，he could not stay on the moon.
The moon becomes very，very hot. It becomes as hot as boiling water. And the moon becomes very，very cold. It becomes colder than ice.
Whatever part of the moon the sun shines on is hot and bright. The rest of the moon is cold and dark.
If the man on the moon had to breathe to stay alive，he couldn’t live on the moon because there’s no air there.(He’d have to carry an oxygen tank，as astronauts do.) There’s no food on the moon，either. Nothing grows — not even weeds.
If the man on the moon liked to climb mountains，he would be very happy. There are many high places there，such as the raised land around the holes，or craters，of the moon. Some of these rims are as tall as Earth’s highest mountains.
