When I was a little child, I felt unhappy. I was really 1 other kids. I couldn't change no matter what I did.
There is something wrong with my 2. I can't see things around me clearly. When my classmates play games happily outside, I have to stay at home and look out of the window alone.
For a long time, I felt hopeless.3my mother always said, "You are the precious (珍贵的) baby in our family." it didn't work.
I asked God, " 4 did you give me a pair of useless eyes when you gave me life?" Of course, there was no 5.
I turned to books for help. Books are my only friends. When I am sad and upset, they 6; when I feel happy and excited, they 7my feelings. They can take me to another world; there I can see everything clearly and free my heart through joy.
I began to write down my thoughts (想法) and keep them as a 8. And nobody knew it. When I studied at a middle school, I had a good teacher. He read all of my poems and said, "Well done!" He always praised (表扬) me in class. He kept 9me. Now I am full of energy and confidence. I can do things like other kids. So please believe in 10. Everyone is unique (独一无二的).
Many children like to go hiking (徒步旅行) .Why? Because they can be free from school and their homework. They can also enjoy beautiful nature, play with friends or family. If you want to have a happy hike, you must pay attention to the following:
First, find a good day. Fine weather is the most important for a happy hike. If the weather is good, you can do a lot of things, like riding horses, going bike riding, swimming in the river, flying kites and playing ball games.
Second, go with the people you like. If you go hiking with the people you don't like, you won't have a great time. So, find the person who has the same interest as you.
Third, find the right place. Different people have different ideas about the places. For me, I would like to go to the beach for a hike. I like to walk along the beach, listening to the sound of the sea and watch children playing.
Lastly, think of what you need to prepare before going hiking. To have a nice hike, you must have comfortable shoes, enough water and some food. Now you can go hiking!
① Comfortable shoes. ② Enough water.
③ Plenty of money. ④ Some food.
What does Beijing's Palace Museum look like at night? Many people don't know the answer to this question, as it closes at around 4:30 p. m in winter and 5:00 p. m in summer. However, to celebrate the Lantern Festival, Beijing's Palace Museum opened its door to the public after dark—for two nights only. That's a first in 94 years! Although people could get free tickets on the museum's website, it was difficult to get a ticket. The website even stopped working for a while because too many people visited it at the same time. Zhang Zhifu, a 77-year-old woman, received a ticket from the museum as a gift. "I grew up in Beijing and I visited the Palace Museum every year, but I never got to see it at night. It is truly an honor." She said.
In the past celebrating the Lantern Festival was a tradition for the imperial(皇帝的) family. "We want to pass the tradition on and give people more festival experience." Said Shan Jixiong, the head of the Palace Museum. On the night of February 19th, 2019, about 3,000 visitors spent the Lantern Festival in the Palace Museum.
Yesterday, my 15-year-old brother Tommy had a fight with my 12-year-old brother Kevin. I didn't t notice.
Later, as I was walking upstairs I heard Kevin crying in his room. I knocked on the door and asked, "Kevin, do you want to talk?"
No one answered I tried again. Still nothing happened.
So, I took some cards and wrote, "If you don't, we can write notes."
An hour later I was still sitting in the floor outside his door with two pads of paper in my hands. One pad new and the other was from Kevin. As I read one of Kevin's notes, tears (眼泪) came to eyes. It says, "Nobody in this family cares about me. Tommy thought I was too weak and Dad told me he wished he had another Kevin as a kid because he's better at basketball. You are never around to even notice me."
He was right about my part. I wrote back, "Kevin, I do love you and you know that. I'm here for you and you are loved in this family."
He didn't reply for a while, but then I heard him crying a little bit. Kevin ran out of rooms and wrote "Thanks" on a paper cup. I wrote back "For what?" It returned to me with "Loving me" on it.
Since then, I have tried my best to pay more attention to my family members. Kevin and I have a closer relationship (关系) now and when one of us notices that the other is unhappy, we'll smile and say, "Write it on a paper cup."

Lanterns have been part of Chinese culture for centuries and play an important part in many celebrations. In ancient times, there were mainly three kinds of lanterns
Palace lantern
It was mainly used in palaces in ancient times. When making palace lanterns fine wood was used. The palace lanterns were covered with silk or glass. Different kinds of pictures were drawn on the covers. These lanterns were not only used as lights but also as decorations (装饰) in palaces.
Gauze lantern (纱灯)
Less expensive bamboo and gauze were used to cover the lantern. Red gauze was used when making them. In Chinese culture, red lanterns stand for (代表) happiness. So red lanterns are always hung (悬挂) on important festivals such as Lantern Festival, Spring Festival and National Day in parks or along main streets. In some famous Chinatowns abroad, you can see red lanterns all the year round. They have become a symbol of Chinese culture worldwide.
Shadow picture lantern (走马灯)
It was usually used for amusement (娱乐) .The shape was much like that of the palace lanterns. There were two layers (层) of covers and pictures were drawn on the inside layer. When lit (被点燃) ,the heat caused a paper wheel inside the lantern to turn around, so that moving pictures appeared on the outside cover.
Now more kinds of lanterns appear in festivals besides the traditional ones. More modem technology is used on making lanterns. The shapes of the modem lanterns have changed a lot too.
