dull boy.Work enablis us to make a living and achieve self-fulfillment.

Because we are human beingsnot machines. So we should have a balance

life. We need to do our best in our work. After that, we should have

recreation. After a break, we can return to work. That’s

help us relax and do our work more efficiently and happily.

Chinese Brush Painting

Chinese brush painting has been practiced in China for over 6,000

years. Traditional Chinese artists paint human figures, landscapes, birds

and flowers. Painters use their brushes and paints to show how the bird's

feathers feel silky, how the waterfall pours down the mountain and sprays

the trees, and how the court lady's steps aregraceful and elegant. An artist

will sometimes complement his or her painting by writing a poem next to

the picture. Written in calligraphy, the poem may explain the painting's

theme, share the artist's reason for painting the picture, or reveal the

name of the person who will receive the painting. After thepainting

and the calligraphy are finished, the artist will sign the painting

by adding a seal. Seals are stamps made by carving Chinese characters

into stone or wood. The characters on the seal may be the artist's name,

a traditional saying, or the painting's theme. The artist dips the seal in

scarlet red paint and presses it to the paper. Adding a red seal to a black and

white painting is called "adding the eye to the dragon."

Moning People /Night People

Morning people follow the maxim of “early to bed, early to rise”

, but night people don’t. Morning people usually work from 8a.m. to

5p.m., so they usually go to bed before 12 midnight. Whereas night

people usually work in the evening, they usually go to bed after 12

midnight. On the other hand, morning peoplethey don’t like night

life, but the night people do. Generally, morning people always feel

energetic in the morning, and they can deal things productively.

In contrast, night people always feel sleepy in the morning, so they

cannot function better in the morning. They will find a chance to

take a nap. In a long run. Morning people are healthier than nigh.

people. People who stay up late get a chronic disease easily. In the

other hand, morning peoples’ appetite are better than night people.

Beside that, morning people are look younger than night people after

many years. All in all, being morning people have many merits

than being night people. Do you want to be the morning person or

the night person?

The Travel Notes of Thailand

I visited Thailand two years ago. There are three famous shows

in Thailand. One is transvestite show, another is elephant show, the

other is alligator show. Especially the transvestite show makes me feel

impressive. I t is said lots of man who turn to be woman because

they want to make more money. That make me a little bit sad. They

give up their gender, health, friendship and family. In order to make

money. What’s a pity. But maybe part of them enjoy of change

their gender. Another show is elephant show, they are so cute and playful.

The elephants must be trained over and over. Any way, I like the show.

We also can ride part of elephants in the park. The trainer talked to his

elephant all the time. I’m so wonder and want to as him. Did they really

know what you mean? The Thai believe elephants have emotion and their

intellect enough to understand our speaking. *The other show is alligator

show.The trainer paly tricks to the alligators and let the alligators mouth.

That’s too mean, I don’t like the show. All in all, the Thai develop the

tourismvery hard, so there are lots of tourists in Thaild. Tourism helps

Thaild paylots of debt. although the tourists bring some pollution but they

get lots of job opportunity.

Reasons for Learning English

Learning English has many advantages. First of all, English is widely

spoken in the world. If we can speak English fluently, we can go

everywhere in the world.In addition, people who deal with foreigners in

business speak in English. I think English as a great help in my future

career. It reported that people who can speak English the salary is higher

than others almost eight thousand. That means if we want to get promote

or get good salary, we should learn English. Moreover, learning English is

the best way to open our eyesight. There are lots of western

music and books are published in English. The information we get from

Internet is written in English. In a word, English is a practical language.

I will study hard and make every effort in learning English.

The Affection to My Attitude in Reading Class.

Absolutely, reading strategy is very different than traditional

English learning. We can choose different reading strategy when we

in different situations. I am interested in the reading strategy, change

of student at attitude toward reading. Learning Language needs

lots of passion. If we have no passion, we will have no patient. We

need to make self-examination when we feel tired of learning language.

In my opinion, SQ3R is the effectively reading strategy. Survey: get

the general ideas about what the chapter is. Question: prepare some

questions about what I want or need to learn in a reading task. Read :

read and write the purpose of the reading and answer my initial

questions. Reviews: it’s important to glue the key information in my

mind. Reading strategy improves my reading comprehension and

reading organization. I also like the reading strategy, using

visualization. All in all , I feel my English ability is getting better in

the past year. I can figure out lots of vocabulary in an article. That's

help me have less fear in learing English also help me improve my

reading comprehension.

What I Learn in My Reading Strategy Class.

We use SQ3R as our reading strategy. We also use team cooperation

learning in the class. Every member needs to take his or her responsibilities.

Otherwise he or she will destroy our project. We have the peer pressure in

the class. But it makes us to do our best. We also discuss the questions and

solutions about the articles. By the interaction, we also compare the

different way to find the answers. Speak of the most difficulty problem in

the class is we don’thave enough time to have discussion after school.

On the one hand, we have busy work, on the other hand, we need to study.

Another problem is about grammar. Grammar is very important . We can

not identify the exactly meaning in some sentence structure because we

don’t good enough at grammar. Although my grammar is getting better

but I still want to take Mr. Lui’s class. Reading class let me overcome

the fear about English. Because I have already learned lots of vocabularies

and grammar in the class. To sum up, reading strategy is useful to get the

main ideas easily and increase my reading comprehension.

How to Choose a Marriage Partner

How to Choose a Marriage Partner

Choosing a marriage partner is very important. How to choose a marriage

partner? It is just like chosing a pair of shoes. The most beautiful shoes are

uncertainly suitable for us. Choosing marriage partner is the same. We need

a marriage partner who has the common goals. There is something important

for us. First, a marriage shouldn’t base on physical attractions. Some people

who don’t have good looking appearance are still have many merits. As the

proverb goes “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” Next, think about what

is important to you? We must think about what do we want to get in our

marriage. For example: faith, money, common interests or appearance.

No one is perfection. We need to figure out what is the most important to

us? We have to tolerate some shortcomings. There is something we should

discuss with our partner. For example: who takes care of the finances?

Does your partner want children? How to get along with each other’s

parents? Will both of you work outside? Will you live with your parents?

All in All, we should make compromise with our partner. Then deal with

the questions .Be sure his or her compressive strength is enough. Then you

can choose a good marriage partner.
