      Lillian Li said the best way to learn new words was reading English magazines. She said that she never studied grammar. She thought it was too boring.

ERIC'S PAST LIFE

Hi Ben,

    I was talking to my mom yesterday about when I was a baby. I remember lots of things about when I was small. I don't remember much about when I was a tiny baby.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}. I haven't always lived in LA. I was born near Des Moines, Iowa.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} . We lived with my grandpar—ents on their farm. It was in the middle of wheat fields. We moved to LA when my dad change jobs. I was eight years old. So my first school was in Des Moines, Iowa.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. I had to stand on the road by our farm at 7 am and wait. If the bus was late, I waited for the bus.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}! If I was sick, someone went down to the road to tell the driver I wasn't coming. A lot of the students came from farms.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}, and we also played happily with brothers and sisters. We soon made friends. It was good to be with kids of our own age. My best friend was Sam. He was very naughty! Were you naughty at school?

    NAO is a 58cm-tall robot. He is small, cute and round. You can't help but love him! NAO is created to be a friendly partner around the house. He moves, recognizes(识别) you, bears you and even talk to you.

    Since his birth in 2006, he has been better and better at pleasing, understanding and loving you.

    Maybe one day he will become your friend. His cute look and wonderful communication skills make him really lovely and popular.

    He can be a good helper. Ask him to do something and he does. For example, ask NAO to wake you up in the morning, to watch your home during the day or to teach you new things whenever you want. You no longer need a keyboard, a computer or a mouse to communicate with technology. All you have to do is to talk to him.

    He can be a sweet family member. He can learn to read your moods, so that he always knows the right thing to say. He can recognize your family members and call them by their first names. You can teach him how to choose the music, food and film you like best.

    We know health and happiness are important to our life. Here are some ways to get them.

      ①    Eat a lot of fruit and vegetable and less meat. Don't eat too much junk food.

      ②   It is best to get about eight hours of sleep a day. It is very bad for our health if we don't have enough sleep.

      ③   It stops you from having bad habits. To keep yourself busy, you can work around the house, spend time with your pet, write letters to your friends, do a sport, or do anything you enjoy.

      ④   Spend time and have fun with people. Talk with them, but don't talk about anything bad. You should stay with the people who are healthy and happy.

    Remember that nothing is more important than health and happiness.
