Bella went off to the home of the beast(野兽). The furniture was fine, the chairs were comfortable, the dinners were delicious ... but everything was very quiet. There was no one to chat to or laugh with. The beast did not come to greet her and the servants (仆人) were invisible . It was always still and silent.
Every day Bella played the piano. She painted pictures and read books. She had everything she needed, but she was very lonely. One evening, Bella was sitting by the fire, reading aloud. She read a sad poem and she thought she heard a sigh. She read a funny story and she heard a chuckle.
“Who’s there?” cried Bella. “Step out of the shadows (阴影)!” Slowly, the beast tried to enter the light without being noticed. Bella was afraid. “Don’t be scared. I know I look ugly and scary, but I will not harm you,” he said. “Please carry on reading.” Bella was scared, but she returned to her reading and the beast sat and listened.
After their first meeting, the beast often came to listen to Bella read and sing. Slowly she began to be less afraid of him. “At least he is someone to talk to,” she thought. The beast told Bella stories of far away lands, he made her laugh by telling jokes, and he brought her beautiful flowers from his garden.
The weeks passed and Bella thought the beast was congenial to her. She began to look forward to his visits and they became friends.
She saw that he was often sad. He spent a lot of time in his garden, looking at his flowers and sighing. Once, she saw a tear fall down his face. Bella was sad too. “I miss my family,” she told the beast. The beast gave her a gift. “This is a magic mirror,” he told her. “It can show you anything you want to see.”Bella looked at the mirror: “Mirror, mirror show me clear, please show me my family dear.”
“Oh!” cried Bella. “My father is ill! Let me go to him,” she begged. The beast could not bear to see Bella so unhappy. So he let her go. As she left, he said, “If you want to return here, use the magic mirror.”Sadly, he watched her leave. Now he would be alone forever.

Bamboo is a kind of wild grass. There are more than 1450 species of bamboo that grow across the world. It is hollow(空的), so it is very light.
For thousands of years, bamboo has been used in many different ways—from food to medicine to clothing. It is also used for furniture or man-made building products such as flooring and window covers. However, bamboo is not often used as a building material in the developed world.
Kent Harries, a professor at the University of Pittsburgh, sees bamboo as a great building material because of the following.
First, it is strong. The strength of at least three species of bamboo is similar to steel. Besides its strength, Harries says that bamboo has other features that make it a great building material. He says it can keep its shape and strength even under pressure.
Second, it’s very tall. It can grow up to 20 meters and it supports its own weight, even in the strong wind.
Third,bamboo also grows quickly. Bamboo that is suitable for construction needs much less resources than wood. It lives on the rainwater, spring water and sunlight. The harvest cycle of bamboo is about 3 years. Softwoods such as pine (松树) and spruce(云杉) have a harvest cycle of about 10 years. And hardwoods that come from flowering plants such as maple(枫树) and walnut(胡桃树) need more than 30 years.
People usually think bamboo is only for poor people. But in many countries,bamboo is used for building floors and roofs and even beautiful houses.
