As a first grader, the last thing on Kylie' s mind was to be an inventor (发明家) . When she made a board game (棋类游戏) about Ladybug (瓢虫) for her science class, the student from Pleasanton, California, thought it would just make her homework fun. Now her board game the Ladybug Game goes into many stores in America. Kylie is happy to talk to WR News about her invention.

(WR=WR News; K=Kylie)

WR: How did you get the idea for the Ladybug Game?

K: I just did it for Mrs. Ditto's science class. We had to make something to tell our classmates about insects (昆虫). I really like board games and I play them a lot. So I made a board game myself.

WR: Why ladybugs?

K: I like their colors. Ladybugs come in many different colors. And I think they have a cool life cycle (生命周期).

WR: Your dad took your game to a friend and the friend helped more people know it. How did you feel when you heard that going to sell your board game?

K: It was really cool. When I got into some stores sometimes the people said "You're the girl on the box!"

WR： Do you think you will invent some other things someday?

K: I don't know, but I'm sure that it will be fun.

    Erin and her friend Amy flew into San Diego last week. They are both in their mid-20s，and both are nurses who live in Georgia. It was their first visit to California，and they were excited.

    They headed north to Los Angeles. They visited many places in Hollywood. They hoped they would see lots of actors and actors' homes. If they got lucky，they would get some autographs and maybe even some photographs of them standing next to a movie star.

    But they were disappointed. A car took them on a tour past actors，homes，but no actors were outside their homes. The homes themselves were hardly visible (看得见的).They were often hidden by tall gates，fences (栅栏)，walls or trees. Later，however， Erin and Amy were able to put their hands and feet into the handprints and footprints of movie stars at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood.

    Erin and Amy drove to Burbank the next day to watch the taping of a Jay Leno show， but the line was so long that they decided to give up. Instead they went to a mall and had a great time shopping. They flew back to Georgia with souvenirs，photos，and wonderful memories. Amy said，”Next time，we're not leaving until we see some real live actors!”

    "No one in this world should be bullied(欺凌)and brought down by people. And no one deserves to hold in all those situations that have happened to them. If you are being bullied, you are supposed to open up and talk about it. I know you may not feel comfortable to say it out, but if you don't, they may gradually get used to bullying you. Remember that you are not alone. Others who get bullied know how you feel. People who love you will listen to you and be there for you. Stand up against bullying today. "

    "No one deserves to be bullied. It is just not right and fair. I had a friend who was bullied and I came to help and stopped it. When you see someone being bullied, please tell an adult or try to stop it yourself. You might be worried about being bullied as well, but there is no reason to be, because you are not alone. My classmates and I have set up a club called 'No Bullying' and we will go out our way to help stop bullying at school. "

    "When I went into middle school, there was a boy whom everyone just 'decided' to pick on(欺负). He would always sit alone at lunch and never once had a friend. A few years later I remembered how many times this boy had tried to talk to me, but I never said a word. I was too scared to lose my friends. I was too selfish to help someone in need. It made me cry when thinking of how lonely he feels. Never again will I ever let anyone decide who is "worth" being happy and having friends. And I want others to learn from my mistake. When you see someone down on the ground，have the courage to be the hand that picks him up. "

    "If you've been a bully(欺凌弱小的人), you don't have to admit it, you just have to realize how you made them feel and change the way you behave. If you try to think about others, you will realize how much of a tough time they are going through. We are the future generation, and we are expected to make a change in the world. Take a stand and lend a hand, and someday we will make a difference in the world together. "
