What is the happiest thing for children? Of course, getting gifts from their parents is one of the happiest things for them. But what gifts do children like to get most and what gifts do parents like to give most?
As Senior Three students, we are not children any more. So we don't have Children's Day. But we can still remember what gifts we got in our memories and what gifts made us excited on Children's Day in our childhood.
Recently, a survey on Children's Day showed the results that 30.3% of the children wanted to get toys most while 28.8% of the parents wanted to give books most as gifts for their children.

At the age of 73, Chen Shaoqi n from Beijing has shown the world how life should be lived.
Although she only had a middle school education, Chen began studying English at the age of 40 and passed a college entrance exam, making herself from a factory worker to a white- collar clerk in an international trade company. Chen continued to study art after retirement(退休) and finally became an art guide at the age of 67. Over the past five years, she has guided visitors at an art center for three days a week, totaling 3,500 hours.
From an old lady who knew nothing about modern art to a volunteer guide, Chen's hard work and love for learning have encouraged many people. She said that she must continue to learn. As a guide, she is able to attend professional training courses and has the chances to learn from artists and curators (馆长), which gives her encouragement to continue.
Chen has guided many exhibitions over the years, including those of famous artists like Zeng Fanzhi, Xu Bing, Qiu Zhijie and Pab lo Picasso. She believes that every tour is a beautiful journey and a new chance to learn and be moved. Her effort of learning and her ability to mix many subjects have made her an excellent guide. After turning73 this year, she believes that the width of one's life can be expanded(扩展) through self- improvement and learning.
Chen Shaoqi n is a best example that anyone can find their passion(热爱) and then learn, grow and share with others.
