The 14-year-old girl Susan Davis is having a party. At this party, there are neither cakes nor candles. There is only a room full of art supplies(供应品)and many kids she never met. And all the kids are homeless.

 Susan got the idea last year after her school. She worried that kids who could not afford their own supplies would give up drawing. So she started writing letters to big companies to ask for help. Then the girl received lots of donations(赠品)from some of the biggest art supply companies. Susan collected more than $3000 in supplies, enough to make a home for kids to paint their own watercolors.

By far she's held three parties. What she did was encouraged by the White House. Susan received the President's awards(奖赏). Now Susan does it for a different reason— to get the poor kids to enjoy art.

   The programmes Sun Xiaomei hosts might be among the shortest on CCTV. On Screen Next Week is on once a week for 15 minutes, and TV You, He and I comes on for five minutes each time once a week too. “Though these programmes are short, I have many ideas to make them more lively for the audience,” she said.

   Sun was interested in music in her childhood. She played the violin since the age of five until she finished middle school. At first her father wanted her to enter a music school; however, 16-year-old Sun Xiaomei became a student in Beijing Broadcasting College.

   Sun loves her job as a hostess very much. She pays great attention to learning from her comrades(同事), especially Zhao Zhongxiang. When Zhao Zhongxiang hosted The World and The Animal World, Sun would sit beside him to learn.

 “I am sure that when I am seen by hundreds of millions of audience on the weekend, I can make friends with them through my warm and easy talk,” she said.

    The aim of students who come to school is to study. But t0 study requires a right way, or you waste either the time or the money. The following are the ways of studying.

    The best time for reading is morning, because in the morning, the air is fresh and the mind is clear. For that reason, we can get good result.

    In studying we must have patience. If we have not known a text well, we must read it again. We should not read the next one until we have learned the first one.

    When we are studying, we must put our hearts into the book, or we can get nothing from the book while we are reading.

    We must always ask "whys". If it is not well understood, write it down and ask our teachers or our parents, or friends. In any possible way, we must know it completely and what we've learned can be used well and made better.

    Though there are many ways for studying, yet the above mentioned will be quite enough if we can keep them in heart and do so.
