The Catnapper Mystery

Cody, the catnapper, had a talent for taking cats from trees, yards, and porches. He'd keep them until their owners paid for their return. One day, Milly's kitten Mousie was missing. Milly accused Cody. "No way!" said Detective Denny. "I saw Cody catch a train to Planters Plain this morning. Mousie can't have been kidnapped by Cody!"

"There are no paw prints on my lawn," noted Milly. "Mousie didn't just run off!"

"And there are no sneaker prints," said Detective Denny. "Cody only wears sneakers." Then he noticed tiny holes in the grass that looked like they were made by high-heeled shoes. Denny pulled out a pencil. He was very careful as he measured the holes. "Half a pencil deep! Only Patty Perry's Pet Shop wears heels that high and thin."

Milly and Detective Denny ran to Patty's, where a man was loading pets into a van. "Where are these animals going?" asked Milly.

"To Carter's Cats in Planters Plain," he replied.

"Where is Patty Perry?" asked Detective Denny.

"She had to catch a train," said the man.

"Hmmm," thought Denny. "Cody's full name is Cody Carter. Sounds like Carter's Cats! And he's on a train to Planters Plain."

Denny figured Patty would sell the cats and then Cody would steal them back. Only this time, Patty made the snatch(抢夺). "They resell the cats in Planters Plain," he realized, "and split the money!"

"Sounds illegal!" said the man with the van.

The Planters Plain police met the train and took the catnappers straight to prison. Best of all, the cats in captivity, including Milly's Mousie, were returned to their owners.

It's always exciting to receive a letter in the mail. Even today, when the world is digitally connected, receiving an actual letter in your mailbox from a distant land is a great way for children to make new friends.

The Peaceful Pen Pals Project is a beautiful project that blends together global connection and self-expression. The project is part of the nonprofit Kids for Peace, founded by Jill McManigal and Danielle Gram in California in 2006. It is open to all children, ages two through seventeen. To date, there are 1,500 children from 17 countries participating in the program according to the organization. Currently, all letters are written in English. When children sign up, they can select if they would rather be matched with a USA Peaceful Pen Pal or an international one.

Each child is then matched to a pen pal of similar age. This establishes a point of connection quickly for the children and facilitates a stronger bond. If the letter writers are in the same grade, they can chat about school, their teachers, and what they are studying. They can also compare what different states or countries learn about and how the atmosphere of the classroom is, whether socially or academically. Children may also be more likely to write about problems they are having if they feel like they are speaking to a peer in a similar situation. Although pen pals may live in different countries, they may find common ground. The writer lists their favorite activities to do outside, plus what they like best and least about school. This gives the writer an opportunity to express and receive advice or feedback from the pen pal.

"Hearing first-hand stories from an international pen pal can encourage teens to take someone else's viewpoint and to think outside of themselves," writes Rebecca Fraser-Thill on Very Well Family. "Having a foreign pen pal can also encourage interest in geography, history and culture."

Professor Heinz Wolff, who has died aged 89, was a bioengineering pioneer. He established the discipline, named it and, in a 60-year career, made significant contributions to medical research. But to the British public, he was best known as thedotty scientist who frontedThe Great Egg Race, a BBC show in which colour-coded teams were set engineering challenges (the first was to transport an egg in a vehicle powered by rubber bands). With his trademark bow tie, half-moon glasses and Mittel-European accent, he looked really like Professor Branestawn, as described by W. Heath Robinson. Yet while he cheerfully exploited his reputation as a "peculiar egghead", he was very serious about his work and inspired thousands of young people to consider scientific careers.

Born in Berlin in 1928, Heinz Wolff was the son of Jewish parents. His mother died in 1938, and the next year the family fled. They arrived in Britain on the day war was declared. "We really cut it rather fine," he said onDesert Island Discs in 1998. After leaving school, he worked as a technician at the Radcliffe Infirmary in Oxford, where he invented a machine to count red blood cells, and then at the National Institute for Medical Research's pneumoconiosis (尘肺病) research unit in Cardiff, where he designed a means of measuring dust levels in coal miners. He went on to study at University College London and graduated with a first in physics and physiology. Then, in 1983, he founded the Institute for Bioengineering at Brunel University. His particular interest was in technologies to improve the lives of older people, but he was also heavily involved in space research and worked as an adviser to the European Space Agency.

Wolff had made his first appearance on TV onPanorama in 1966, encouraging Richard Dimbleby to swallow a "radio pill". On The Great Egg Race, which ran from 1979, his task was to get opponent teams representing organizations such as the chemical company ICI. Challenges included building a hovercraft from a lawnmower, and inventing a bicycle that could ride on water. Marks were awarded for entertainment value and technical accomplishment. The show ended in the mid-1980s, but Wolff continued to judge scientific competitions, on TV and elsewhere. A natural entertainer with an inexhaustible curiosity about the world, he said he'd be happy to dress up as a clown if it got children interested in science.

The application process to almost every college and university in the United States has several parts to it. Each part tells admissions officials at the schools something different about an applicant.A list of the student's activities outside of school can show what his or her interests are.

In it, students are expected to write about themselves and express their personal opinions about an issue. The statement helps admissions officers answer questions they may have about a given student.

Some schools will ask an applicant a very specific question. Others will let the student choose between different subjects or simply write about anything they want. Generally speaking, there is no one perfect way to write an essay.This could be about a difficult time when they were growing up or a meaningful relationship they had.

However, they should also be careful about the subject they choose. Many students think that telling a sad story makes them easy to remember.What they want is an essay about anything that is truly special or important to the student, and which also shows their better qualities. In addition, it should show the student's understanding of the world and what their experiences or way of thinking will bring to the school.

A．Getting started in the writing process can be difficult.

B．Every school has its own way of looking at the essay.

C．But that is not necessarily what admissions officials want to see.

D. Class grades can show the subjects a student is strong in, for example.

E. Therefore, remember to avoid discussing topics like politics and religion.

F. Given a choice, students should choose to write about an issue they care about.

G. But nothing really tells the story of an applicant as well as the essay or personal statement.
