Science Says Forget Work and Stay Active

Taking a vacation is good for your health. Scientists say that doing physical activities, like walking or swimming, can help you feel better. But if you check emails or think about work, your vacation will not be relaxing. Experts say it is important to stop working completely during your vacation.

A study from the University of Georgia looked at 32 research papers from different countries. It found that people who stop working during vacations feel less stress and more happiness.

To have a great vacation, you should forget about work and enjoy fun activities. Go for a walk, try a new sport, or explore a new place. This will help your body and mind feel good, not only during the trip but also after you come back home.

Baltic states don’t get Russia’s electricity – Level 2

Tags :

Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania now get electricity from the European system instead of Russia.

They used Russian electricity for many years, but now they are connected to Finland, Sweden, and Poland. This change is important because it helps them be safer and more independent. On Saturday, they turned off the last power lines to Russia and Belarus. The next day, they had a ceremony with leaders from Europe, including Ursula von der Leyen.

In 2024, the three countries told Russia and Belarus about their plans so there wouldn’t be any problems. Relations with Russia worsened in 2022 because of the war in Ukraine. The Baltic countries want to be part of Europe and not depend on Russia anymore.

Difficult words: independent (not needing help or control from others), ceremony (a special event to celebrate something), worsen (to make or become worse).

Why people have hair – Level 1

Tags :

Many people wonder why we have hair on our heads. Do we need hair?

We have hair for important reasons. Hair keeps our brain safe. It keeps us warm in cold weather. It also helps to cool us down when it is too hot outside. Hair keeps UV rays away from our skin. UV rays are not healthy for our skin. Hair can be like whiskers to warn us of something dangerous.

In the past, hair probably helps people choose the right partner. These days it is not so important. But we have hats. They can do the same job as hair.

Difficult words: brain (the organ in our head which controls all body), ray (a narrow line in which light streams), whisker (a long hair which grows from the face of many animals).
