The best way of learning a language is using it. The best way of learning English is talking in English as much as possible. Sometimes you'll get your words mixed up and people won't understand you. Sometimes people will say things too quickly and you couldn't understand them. But if you sense of humor, you can always have a good laugh at the mistakes. It's better for people to laugh at your mistakes than to be angry with you, because they don't understand what you are saying. The most important thing for learning English is:“ Don't be afraid of making mistakes because everyone makes mistakes.”

The Art of Paper

    Chen Zijiang is a paper cutting expert whom I interviewed for my article on Chinese Art. Paper-cutting is something that he learned to do from an early age.

    "It is a Chinese folk art with a long history," Mr. Chen told me, "Paper cuts of animals have been found in tombs. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}" He added that by the Southern Song Dynasty, paper-cutting had become an important part of everyday life.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}They are paper cuts for decoration, for religious purposes (宗教目的) and for design patterns.

    Paper cuts for decoration are often seen, on windows and gates. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}They are also used on presents. A present for parents whose child has recently been born might show a paper cut of children, for example. Paper cuts which show the Chinese character for double happiness are often used to celebrate weddings.

My ideas to make my school better

I love my school，and I want my school to be better. Here are some of my ideas. 

Can a green machine help the world's poorest kids learn better? You must feel curious (好奇的) to know 1 the green machine is. Now here are some things 2 the green machine. Nicholas Negroponte 3 his team of scientists have invented a new type of computer. As a result, many poor kids will have their own laptop computers.

Negroponte works at a university. He started 4 organization called One Laptop Per Child (OLPC). The people at OLPC don't work for money. They work 5 children learn. OLPC makes computers that don't cost a lot. Then the machines 6 by them to governments of poor countries. The governments then give the computers to kids for free. The low price means millions of poor kids 7 receive a computer. This is very good for 8 .

Maybe, only a computer can open a window for them to see a 9 world than before. OLPC plans to give out over ten million computers in the future. Kids in Thailand, Nigeria, Brazil, and Argentina 10 most of them.

A tiny forest is a small area of closely planted, fast growing local trees. It is created to copy a natural forest.bringing all its benefits, but for a small space in cities. The first tiny forest was planted by a Japanese plant expert, Dr. Akira Miyawaki in the 1970s. It was so great that it grew quickly in countries such as Denmark. Britain Germany, Ireland and Spain.

As the name suggests, the place doesn't have to be big. An area the size of about 200 m2 is perfect. 600 trees with as many as 40 different kinds, can be planted in the place. With 2 to 7 trees every square metre, the trees are planted much more closely than the ones in normal forests. But there's still room for the trees to grow naturally without the use of fertilizers(肥料)

To plant a tiny forest, one starts with testing the soil and choosing right kinds of trees. In cities, the soil is often in poor condition. It is important to create loose and rich soil. When the soil is prepared, the community will invite school children on a planting day. The forests need 2 to 3 years of care from children. Then the trees can become self-growing. It's believed if children plant their own forest and spend a lot of time caring for it, they will grow up to be healthy adults with a sense of responsibility for the society.

Trees and forests aren't special pieces of nature that should only exist in the countryside. They need to be apart of life in cities too
