    A video by the name of Dancing on Water: The Chinese Art of Bamboo Drifting (漂流) became an Internet hit months ago. It shows people balancing (保持平衡) on thin bamboo poles ( 杆 ), moving along the Chishui River in Guizhou Province. Not only do these people balance on these poles, but they also dance, perform, and play sports.

Bamboo drifting may be strange to the outside world, but to many in Southwestern China's Guizhou Province, it is an important sport and has a long history. During the Qin Dynasty, the ancient capital of Xianyang in Shanxi Province needed lots of nanmu. They were from the Bozhou district in Guizhou Province.     But how could people move them along the Chishui River, the first part of the journey from the nanmu forest in Bozhou?

    Guizhou locals solved the problem. They each brought one log (原木) down the Chishui River, stood on their log as it drifted down the river, and guided it toward its next stop, the Yangtze River. From there people moved the logs onto boats and sailed north to the capital.

    Later, the Guizhou locals began to challenge each other to jump from log to log, and so, wood drifting was born. During the Qing Dynasty, wood drifting became bamboo drifting, for bamboo is much cheaper.

    Today, bamboo drifting is getting increasingly popular in Guizhou, especially among young people. Also, it is a much—loved activity among visitors.

Thomas Edison was born in 1847. He was in school for only three months, but he asked a lot of questions. He liked to know how things worked. At the age of ten, he built a small chemistry lab (化学实验室) . He plantedvegetables in his garden and sold them to buy chemicals. 

One day, his mother was ill(生病的). The doctor said she needed an operation. But it was night and the oil lamp (油灯) in the room gave poor light. Edison thought hard and had an idea. He put all the oil lamps in his home on a long table. Then he put a big mirror (镜子) behind them. The room became quite bright, so the doctor could operate. 

At the age of twelve, Edison began selling candy, sandwiches and newspapers on a train. When he was free, he printed(打印) newspapers on the train and sold them to the railway workers. 

One day in August, 1862, Edison saw a boy playing on the tracks at a station. A train was coming near quickly, and the boy was too frightened (害怕的) to move. Edison took the boy to a safe place quickly. The boy's father was the station master. He was so thankful that he taught Edison railway telegraphy (电报学). Edison soon became very good at it and later he left home to work in different cities. This gave him a new start in his life. He was then just a boy of sixteen.
