One night, a little swallow(燕子) flew over the city. He was very tired and wanted to have a good sleep in the city. When he saw the Statue(雕像) of the Happy Prince, he flew down and got ready to sleep between the feet of the Happy Prince.

Just as he was putting his head under his wing, some water fell on him. He thought it was raining. But when he looked up, he found the sky was so clear and bright that he could see lots of stars. Suddenly, he saw some tears(眼淚) were running down the Prince’s golden face.

“Why are you crying?” asked the swallow. “In a little street, there’s a poor house. From one of the windows, I see a woman sitting at a table. She’s sewing(縫) clothes for rich women to wear. On a bed in the corner of the room, her little boy is sick. He’s asking for oranges, but his mother has only water to give him, so he is crying. The boy is so thirsty and the mother is so sad. Little swallow, will you please take her the jewel(珠寶) from the top of my sword(寶劍)?” “It is very cold here and I am leaving for a warm place, but I will stay with you and do as you ask.” The swallow took the bright red jewel from the Prince’s sword and flew away with it in his mouth. He flew into the woman’s room and put it beside the woman’s needle(針).

After he flew back, he told the Prince what he had done. “It’s strange,” he added, “It’s so cold but I feel quite warm now.”

“That’s because you have done a good thing,” said the Prince. The little swallow began to think about this, and then he fell asleep.

We live in a fast-paced(快節(jié)奏的), technology-packed world where we spend most of our time indoors playing computer games or using social media(媒體). But do you remember when you spent most of your time outside, running, playing, and laughing with your friends?

Leaving your tech behind may seem difficult, but if you lose yourself in nature, you’ll probably forget all about it. Scientist Albert Einstein once said, “Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.”

In the US, June is Great Outdoors Month. They want to get more kids outside to have active fun once again. Former(前任) US President Barack Obama wrote in a paper declaring(宣告) the day in 2012, “Nature offers each of us the chance to get active, discover something, and make our relationships with family and friends strong.”

The US Union Creek Resort website noted, “We all know how fast life can be, so it’s never too soon or too late to create happy memories that we will cherish and share forever.”

Besides making us feel happy, science supports the idea that outdoor activities can cut down stress. “Fresh air and sunlight have the largest advantages,” wrote Susanne Preston, a mental health expert at South University, US. “With increased exposure(暴露) to natural sunlight, incidents of seasonal affective disorder(季節(jié)性情緒失調) fall and the vitamin D in people’s skin helps to relax their moods(心情).”
