    Last week, I read a book-Life of Pi. It's about a boy from India 1 Pi, who traveled across the Pacific Ocean in a lifeboat.

    Pi's family lived in India and his father owned a zoo. When Pi was seventeen, they decided to 2 the zoo and moved to Canada. They sold 3 of the animals to several zoos and took the other animals on ship to Canada. 4 the way, they met with very heavy rain and the ship sank (沉没).

    When Pi woke up after the terrible rain, he 5 that his family died and he was in a lifeboat with a hyena, a zebra, an orang-utan and a tiger. When he saw those big 6, Pi was scared. One by one, the animals in the lifeboat killed and ate each other. At last, there was only Pi and the tiger left. 7 for Pi, there was some food and water in the lifeboat, but he soon needed to start catching fish. He fed the fish to the tiger to 8 it killing and eating him. He also used what he learned from the zoo to control (控制) the tiger.

    Pi and the tiger 9 227 days in the lifeboat. They were often hungry. Sometimes, Pi was happy and hopeful, but sometimes he felt 10 and afraid. At last, they arrived in Mexico.

    Do you enjoy watching movies when you are free? It's a great way to have fun. So how much do you know about Xu Zheng and Huang Bo? They are both popular actors in China, They act in a lot of funny and wonderful movies. But do you know there are many differences between them? Let's have a look.

The word "sharenting" (晒娃) is used to describe that parents share lots of pictures of their children on social media. Should parents ask kids before posting photos and other information about children online? What do you think?

Cindy, 16:

I think parents should ask for permission from their kids before sharing their photos online. Some parents like to share embarrassing(令人尴尬的) photos of their kids. For example, sometimes their kids are sleeping or_____ in the pictures. But most kids don't want these photos to be shared online.

Tom, 17:

I am against sharenting. It is not responsible when parents think so little of their children's privacy (隐私) ; however, much sharenting just seems like fun to them. I've also noticed that some parents like to show off their children. Children may not like that. It's far better to share their happiness in the family than on social media.

Sam, 16:

Parents should be able to share something about their children online, because it shows their love and care for their children. In fact, the sharing of information, pictures and moments on social media can play a role in recording the growth of children. Also, it can help children to behave(表现) well.

Tina, 15:

1 think that sharenting is reasonable. First, sharing children's pictures and news on social media gives parents a way to show their love and pride. It's a record of their lives. Second, when the children are grown, the pictures and other items will seem like treasures to them, leading them to recall their young lives.

Here is a story: A man sees a butterfly. The butterfly tries to get out of its chrysalis(蛹).Feeling sorry for it, the man decides to help. He cuts the chrysalis and the butterfly comes out easily. Surprisingly enough, the butterfly is unable to fly. If the butterfly doesn't struggle(挣扎) to leave the chrysalis, it can't fly! The struggle develops the energy in the butterfly which makes it fly. Similarly, the challenges of life bring out the best in young people and make the fly.

When people are young, meeting and overcoming challenges will make them strong and ready to face life. When we look at successful people, we see that the most successful of them are people who have had to struggle. One famous businessman, who now owns many big supermarkets, used to carry clothes on his back and sell them from door to door when he was young. Another successful man is Dennis. His father died when he was only twenty. His father's death forced him to mature fast. He had to bring up a family of nine people. He faced the challenges and overcame(克服) them. Today his brothers and sisters are leading successful lives.

Sometimes challenges do not appear to us because we keep away from them. So some parents and teachers actively encourage young people to face challenges. They might organize some activities for young people which provide them with challenges, like rock-climbing, camping, volunteer work and so on. However, just passing exams will not prepare a person for life. We must meet and overcome challenges. The young people of today will become the leaders of tomorrow. For countries to continue to become successful, it is important that the young people learn to meet challenges and overcome them.

Nowadays Wechat (微信) is more and more popular. I often talk to my English friends on Wechat to help me speak English (good) than before. And I can read lots of (information) on Wechat that can make me know more around. Some news also makes me become more careful. Sometimes I feel Wechat is like mirror that helps me see something (clear). , Wechat brings me some trouble as well. Some friends put photos of the real things on Wechat to tell what they sell is really good. I am angry about (that) advertisements (广告). Because some of them may be not true. As a (say) goes, "Seeing is believe." I know people are cheated (被欺骗) by some news easily. What's worse, some news always asks us (send) it to others. This makes me (comfortable). So I am thinking about never (use) Wechat on my phone again.
