    Up in the Sky

        Take a trip up a hill on a windy day. What is flying high in the sky? It isn't a bird or a plane. It is a kite!

        Kids and adults like flying kites. Long ago, the first kites were made by Chinese people. Then, people around the world began flying kites.

        One story tells a man's hat got lifted off by wind. He had fun chasing his hat, so he did it again! His hat became the first kite. Other stories tell that people liked watching leaves on windy days. They tied leaves to strings and watched them fly.

        Long ago, kites became important in keeping China protected. A man might be lifted up by a kite while he spied(监视) on an enemy. He could use the kite to fly high like a plane. He could also fight from the air!

        Kites come in many shapes, sizes, and styles. They are usually made of cloth or paper. A kite might be shaped like a bird, a fish,  or just a box. Kites are also painted with colors.

        You can use a kite to catch fish. First you tie a fishing line to a kite. Then you put bait(鱼饵) on the line. You watch the kite with hopes as it flies over the water. When you pull the kite down, you might find a fish on your line! Some people think this is more fun than using a fishing pole(杆).

        Many countries have special days to honor kites. People make, sell and fly many types of kites. There are several kite festivals in China. The Beijing International Kite Festival is usually held in April every year. People spend all days flying kites. You might see famous fighter kites. People fly these kites quite fast and try to cut other flyer's lines.

        There is much to learn about kites. From long ago in China until now, kites have had many uses. They have been used for spying, fighting, and fishing. But the best way to use a kite is to fly it high for fun!

        Our words carry huge weight. They may influence people for years, and even for a lifetime. They provide them with courage to go on or one more reason to give up.

    When I was fourteen, my family moved to another city. Junior high was always a difficult time for me, and the move made my ninth-grade year even harder. I remember walking into the dining hall for the first time. The other kids had good friends with them, but I didn't know anyone. I felt lonely and went to the nearest seat after getting some food. The kids beside me looked at me up and down and then laughed. I could feel my face turning red at that moment. Then one of the Kids broke the ice. “Man! You have one BIG nose!” I felt hurt and didn't know what to say. I wanted to cry. But I managed a little smile—as if it didn't hurt me at all. But it did. From then on, I would often look at myself in the mirror. I studied the big nose closely. It seemed that I was just living for my nose. Thankfully, I grew out of this influence finally. But it really took me twenty years

        There is another thing that is kept deep in my mind. I remember going through a terrible business failure. I lost everything. I called my dad for help and he told me a lot about how to deal with the failure. What he said gave me a lot of courage and confidence(信心)to go on with my business.

    Every Saturday evening, many people come to an open square in a small town in Xi' an. They want to watch Chen Kun and his friends put on a play. During the play, the audience (观众) can hear them, but they can not see them. That is because they are putting on a shadow puppet play (皮影戏).

    Shadow puppets are made of hard leather (皮革). The leather is cut out in the shape of a person, an animal or an object. Each puppet is painted in bright colours and put on a stick. Some puppets have movable arms and legs.

    During a shadow puppet play, Chen stands behind a white screen with lights behind it. The audience sit in front of the screen. Chen and his friends hold the puppets very close to the screen so the audience can see the puppets' shadows clearly. Then they move the puppets around and do the voices of the different characters.

    Shadow puppet plays are a traditional Chinese art. Now with TV and films, shadow puppet plays are not as popular as before. To encourage more young people to learn the skills of shadow puppet plays, Chen provides training courses for students to teach them how to make shadow puppets.

    Chen and his friends often work very hard for little money, but they do not mind. They want to keep this traditional art form alive.

    You may grow up with a no-snacking mom. She always tells you that snacks (零食)are bad for your health because they can make you fat and hurt your teeth. Well, mom may be right about most things in our life, but she isn't right about all snacks. It is true that there is a healthy way to snack. In fact, snacking in the right way can make you healthier! The right snacks can be good for us! After having some snacks, you don't need to eat too much at dinner and in this way, they can stop you from getting fat. Now let me tell you some rules to snack. 

    The first rule about snacking is to make snacks by yourself. Do not buy snacks from the supermarket or food shops. Most of those snacks have too much sugar and salt in them. 

    The second rule about snacking is to eat things that take longer for your body to process. Our body can process bread and cakes quickly. Try to have some cheese or yogurt to go along with some bread, and you have got a winning snack. 

    The third rule about snacking is to remember water. For example, when you are working, maybe you are not hungry but tired. What you should do is to have a break. Your body might just be trying to tell you to drink some water. Have some water before you take out another snack to eat. A short break and some water might be all you really need. 

    With one or two snack breaks during the day, you may find that you eat less (更少)at lunch and dinner. Smaller meals will help you to eat less food during your day. And eating less is a great way to start losing weight (减肥). So, why not have a try?
