When we talk about stars, especially women stars，it seems that they are always young，pretty and own charming body shapes．But recently a Britain's Got Talent（英国达人）star Susan Boyle has changed our views absolutely(完全地)．
Simon Cowell，one of the judges of the talent show spoke of his shock over Ms Boyb's voice. “This lady came up，and I'm thinking, ‘This will take five seconds and I can go to have a cup of tea.' That changed when she began to sing I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables. She knew we were going to have that reaction and just to see that look of satisfaction on her face midway through —it was one of my favorite moments,” Cowell said.
The performance was posted On line and before long，the 47-year-old Scottish woman has been famous all over the world．
Speaking from her home in Scotland,MsBoyle said that she hadn't thought of changing her appearance．She said that her friend helped her with make-up．“I mean，that's hardly a makeover.” she added．
Ms. Boyle also spoke of the reason she first began to explore her vocal(歌唱的) talents．”I was kind of slow at school, so getting something like singing was a good way of hiding behind that and thus it built my confidence．''

    Mr. and Mrs. Smith got married when he was twenty-three，and she was twenty．Twenty-five years later，they had a big party，and a photographer(摄影师) came and took some photos for them．Then the photographer gave Mrs. Smith a card and said，"They'll be ready next Wednesday．You can get them from my room．"

    "No，"Mrs. Smith said，"Please send them to us．"

    The photos arrived a week later，but Mrs. Smith was not pleased when she saw them．She got into her car and drove to the photographer's room．She went inside and said angrily，"You took some photos of me and my husband last week，but I'm not going to pay for them．"

    "Oh，why not ?"the photographer asked．

    "Because my husband looks like a monkey．"Mrs. Smith said．

    "Well，"the photographer answered，"That isn't my fault(过错)．Why didn't you think that before you married him?''

    Long ago, Bluebird's feathers were the colour of dust. She did not like her ugly colour. She was attracted by the colour of the lake near her home. It was as blue as the sky after a storm. Bluebird wanted to be the colour of that beautiful lake very much. Flapping her wings one morning, Bluebird flew from her tree to the blue lake. Then she bathed in the water three times. After each bath, she sang, "Blue water. Still water. I went in. I am blue." Bluebird repeated this every morning. On the third day, she came out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers.

    Now Coyote was a trickster(骗子)—and hungry too. He stayed behind Bluebird's tree for a long time every day and watched her go to the lake. He pretended(伪装)to be interested in everything she did. He wanted Bluebird for lunch, but he was afraid of the blue water. On the third morning, Coyote saw Bluebird come out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers. Impressed, he sat next to Bluebird's tree and waited for her. When she returned, he asked, "How did you get blue feathers? I want to be blue like the mountains too." Bluebird didn't believe Coyote, but she taught him how to bathe three times each morning and how to sing her song. Coyote did what she said, and after three days of bathing in the lake, his white fur turned deep blue.

    Convinced(确信的)that blue fur was even more beautiful than blue feathers, Coyote forgot all about being hungry. He ran as fast as he could to the top of the hill. Standing on his back legs, he raised his front legs off the ground and howled. But Coyote slipped(滑倒)and rolled down the hill. He couldn't stop himself, and the dust and dirt covered his new blue fur. He rolled and rolled until he hit into Bluebird's tree heavily. No matter how much he tried, foolish Coyote could not shake the dust from his fur. And so the fur of all coyotes had the dull colour of dust to this very day.

As a traditional and meaningful board game, Weiqi was invented in China more than 2,500 years ago and it is still played until today.

The playing pieces are called stones. One player uses the white stones and the other, black. The players take turns to play the stones on the game board. As we know, the board surface has 361 cross points. The stones are placed on them.

Weiqi is also called Go in the world. Learning it can not only improve people's logical thinking ability, but it can also develop their calm character. That's why it is more and more popular with modern people.

In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Weiqi traveled to Japan, and then to Europe in the 19th century. Now it has grown into an international competition event. So far, people from over 40 countries have played it. Among them, players from China, Japan and South Korea have the highest level of Weiqi.

On February 19, Chinese-English Dictionary of Weiqi Term（术语）came out in Beijing. It's the first professional dictionary about Weigi in China. As a symbol of Chinese culture, Weiqi has its special language. It also has its own way of thinking and the method of communicating. The dictionary will serve as a necessary tool and bridge for spreading Weiqi culture.

Have you ever dreamed of a monster (怪物) hiding somewhere near you? This is what Zhu Tong is imagining (想象) in his new school. He is a third grade r and the main character in the movie Day Dreaming(《朱同在三年级丢失了超能力》).

The movie came out on the Chinese mainland on May'25. It shows Zhu's ideas and experiences at school . Many people can also relate to (理解) the problems Zhu faces, like hiding(躲藏) a bad grade from their families.

These problems, however, also bring out Zhu's "creativity "(创造力). For example, he doesn't want to show his bad exam grade to his grandpa. So, he tries to trick a shop owner into signing his grandpa's name onto the paper. The movie also looks into his inner (内心的) world . It shows the fun of childhood that comes from a wild and free imagination. In Zhu's mind, everything is possible. For example, an alien ( 外星人 ) is trying to take his math teacher away and a cloud is talking to him when he is lying on the ground.

It is a movie for all age groups. It makes us think about how, in childhood, joy is always within reach.
