Clever Monkey is a teacher and doctor at school. Every day, he receives many messages on WeChat. Students like to tell him their secrets and problems and ask him for help. Of course, Clever Monkey is really glad to reply to them.
I am one of the best students in my class. But I always make some mistakes which I should not make. And now, I'm afraid to see my teachers. I just don't know how to face them. Can you tell me how I can solve the problem? —Molly
The first thing you need to do is to relax. Worrying about your studies is not going to help. And if you have any difficulties, tell your teachers. No teacher is going to get angry with a student who wants to be better. —Clever Monkey
I was brought up(抚养) by my grandparents and began to live with my parents two years ago for a better study. They love me and I can see this in their eyes. But I don't know how to show my love to them. What can I do to let them know I also love them? —Sara
If you want to show your love to your parents, that's great. Remember their birthdays and buy them cards and presents. Try to spend time with your parents. Tell them how you feel. Try to enjoy your life. Your parents want you to be happy. If you are happy, they will be happy, too. —Clever Monkey
I'm always late for school. I try not to be, but I can't . Please give me some advice and tell me what to do. —Tommy
You are late for school probably because you go to bed too late. My advice is to go to bed earlier and buy a clock to wake you up on time. —Clever Monkey
Go Ape is an adventure park, with shaking bridges, zip wires and Tarzan swings. One of the most important things about the courses is the trees. Chris Miller, tells us what his jobs are and why you should join him in Go Ape.
What does a Senior Tree Officer do? I am responsible for taking care of over 3, 000 trees across 36 places. I also make sure the trees are healthy and strong. |
Have you always loved trees and the outdoors? My dad has always had a love of nature. He loves watching birds, so from a young age I had a very outdoorsy childhood. |
Do you ever feel scared of heights? Tree climbing and outdoor activities were always a part of my childhood, but as you grow up, you lose that fearlessness (无畏). There are some moments when you get to the top of a tree and you're questioning a lot of things, but you have to calm down and don't overthink things. |
What do you like about trees? Their beauty. Every tree can tell a story. |
Do you have a favourite tree fact? How shallow (浅的) tree roots are! A lot of people think they go down deep, but they're actually shallow, only in the top metre of earth and wide spreading (延展). |
What is your favourite type of tree? One of my favourites is a paperbark maple. I've got one in my garden that I planted a few years ago. It's got this lovely rich dark brown bark. |
How would you describe Go Ape in three words? Adventure, fun and trees. |
What do you want to say to our readers? "Come and enjoy the treetop adventures in our courses!" |
What do you think of the Chinese language?
| Isaiah Pablo | It's a beautiful language! I love Chines characters and the meanings they have. I think the grammar of the Chinese language easy. The pronunciation is difficult, though. |
| Jia Jiang | I like it a lot. It' s cool and very different from English. Learning new Chinese characters feels rewarding (有益的). I enjoy it, and I think everyone should give Chinese a try if they are interested in challenging themselves. |
Jasmine Cheng | I think it's interesting. The Chinese language has tones( 声调), and those tones distinguish (区分) the meaning of different characters. For example, "十(shí)"means ten, and"是(shì)"means yes. However, there are also other words with the same tone but different meanings. For example,"书 (shū)' means book, and"输 (shū)"means to lose. |
| Alvin Hansen | I find Chinese characters very hard. They are not only hard to memorize （记住) but also hard to pronounce. And writing in Chinese is hard, too. The Chinese characters write often end up going through the bottom (底部) line in my notebook. |
