There are three buildings offering kids fine arts with 16 studios and 25 artists inspiring you at camp all summer. Long Lake Camp for the arts is the most amazing arts camp in the world for boys and girls to express themselves and share their creativity with the world. We are one of only two camps on earth to offer so many choices and employ so many great fine arts teachers.

Our two-story Fine Arts Facility is open all day and we have special evening classes for our most hard-working artists. It has both inside and beautiful outdoor working areas. Since you create your own schedule, you can spend all day or one period making art; .it's your choice and you can change your schedule daily if you like. We make it easy for you to take your ideas from studio to studio creating your own portfolio(作品集) of artwork. We also have buildings for our photography studio.

I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career.

I wasn't an excellent student because I didn't do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn't have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn't the type to have a career.

 I then found myself a job—looking after two little girls. It wasn't too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she'd give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn't often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.

One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification if I wanted to work with children. I didn't think I would be accepted because I didn't take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part-time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.

Now I've got a full-time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren't top of the class at school.

The assessor (估价员)approached a farmhouse. When he 1 the farmhouse door, he thought, "Not much value here. The surroundings look very poor." But the room he entered was 2 and warm. The couple were aged. He 3 a form from his bag and said, "I'm a assessor. I'm here to 4 your possessions, sir, to determine your wealth. Will you 5 my questions?"

"Oh, we have great possessions, "they quickly replied. With a pencil prepared, the assessor waited for the items to 6.

"We put a high value on our love. It began such a long time ago. Each passing year has7 the tie. That increases the value, you know. Our 8 is more precious than silver and gold. We enjoy each day as it comes and goes, 9 many people are complaining. We've quite an enormous 10 of relics, too. Any price you would name would be 11 : a soft golden curl of hair, a pair of little worn shoes, and the fingerprints there on the wall. We've a special interest in heaven, too. "

The 12 assessor squirmed (扭动) uncomfortably. He found it hard to relax, and said, "You truly have great possessions, but I can assess none of them."

"We have no possessions to lock, "they explained calmly, "and our possessions are quite 13. Our possessions are the things that we 14. There's one more thing that is quite 15: we hold a title 'To a building in the skies'."

The assessor bowed himself out. The richest couple he had ever known were entirely exempt (被免除) from assessment.

Traditional Chinese culture is beginning to capture the attention of the world. Kung fu, (especial), has had a great effect millions of people who first learned about China through it. From that, they may come to China and learn about some other (aspect) of this culture. Other Asian nations have long known about the (great) of ancient Chinese culture. Their own cultures are mix of native ones and those Chinese characteristics. Korea and Japan long ago adopted Confucianism, something that continues today even as it (challenge) by pop culture. This strength comes from the ideas (give) in the Four Books of Confucianism, which built upon the ideas of an even (much) ancient period codified (编纂) in the Five Classics. From then, the West learns is uniquely Chinese, for example, Feng shui. So far China has taken steps  (further) this spread of its culture by establishing Chinese Cultural Centers in such places as the United States and Europe.
