Do you know what shouzhang is? It is a diary with decorations (裝飾品) like tapes, stickers (貼紙), drawings and other things. It started in Japan. And now it becomes popular in China.

Twin (雙胞胎的) sisters Lin Ting and Mao Yue from Zhejiang become “stars” on the Internet because they make interesting shouzhang. These two 15-year-old girls are from Grade 8, Wenhui Middle School in Hangzhou. They record things about food, travel, pets, school life and other interesting things in their lives in their shouzhang.

The twins started to make their shouzhang about three years ago. “Nothing will be greater than to look back on these beautiful memories when we get old,” Lin said.

They write funny stories about their two pet dogs Dabao and Gege in their shouzhang. When Lin has too much homework to do, she writes about how she feels. “It makes me feel better,” Lin said. They also write about their favourite food and stars. Mao collected pictures of ice cream, coffee and her hero Zhang Yixing, and stuck them in their shouzhang. They always bring their shouzhang with them when travelling.

Both of them love and do well in drawing. They also have a big box of tapes and stickers. So they think it is easy and interesting for them to make their shouzhang beautiful.

Winter is cold and it can be difficult for animals to find food during winter. They get through winter in many ways.

Would you like to go to a warm place for the winter? That’s what migratory (遷徙的) animals do. When the weather starts to get cold, migratory animals like some birds and butterflies fly to a warmer place, and then they come back in spring.

Another good way to get through winter is to sleep through it. Many animals hide and sleep during the winter. Their body temperature drops and hearts beat more slowly. This helps them to save their energy. They do not eat. They live off their fat. They wake up when the weather gets warmer. We call this hibernation (冬眠). Snakes, frogs and bears hibernate in winter.

Many animals stay active in winter and adapt to (適應(yīng)) the cold weather. Some animals save food in summer and autumn and eat it in winter. This is what squirrels do. Other animals make changes in their bodies or behavior (行為). To keep warm, some animals grow thicker coats in winter. Some animals eat different kinds of food as the seasons change. The red fox eats fruit and insects in the other three seasons, but eats small rodents (嚙齒類動(dòng)物) in winter. Other animals change colour. The arctic (北極的) fox is brown in summer. Its coat turns white in winter.

How do you live through the winter? Do you wear a thick coat? Do you stay inside? Or do you live in a warm place?
