Q:
A: I have always liked to write. When I was a kid in my primary school, I started to write stories. Some of them were published in my school newspaper.
Q:
A: When you write a storybook, you spend a lot of time alone. I want to have many chances to meet people and talk to them. That's why I write news, not books.
Q:
A: Some days are harder than others. On a hard day, many things happen. That means I have to write a lot of news stories. Sometimes I even miss lunch! But at the end of a hard day, I feel good about all of my work.
Q:
A: Sure, I am working on one right now. It's about some kids who think the city needs more soccer fields. They want to find a way to get more fields.

A speaker was giving a talk to his student on what to do with stress(压力). He held up a glass of water and asked the students, "How heavy do you think this glass of water is?" The students' answers were different, from 20g to 500g.
"It does not matter on the exact weight. It depends on(取决于) how long you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you will send me to the hospital. It is the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes."
"If we carry our burdens(负担) all the time, we will not be able to carry on, because the burden is becoming heavier and heavier. What you have to do is to put the glass down, have a rest for a while and then hold it up again."
We have to put down the burden sometimes, so that we can cheer up and are able to carry on. So before you return home from work tonight, put the burden of work down. Stop carrying it back home. You can pick it up tomorrow.
Whatever burdens you are having now on your shoulders, let it down for a moment if you can. Life is short, enjoy it!

Do you still remember the last time you went to the cinema? People like different kinds of films for different reasons.
|
Student A: I like Dunkirk. It is about the British retreat(撤退) from the beaches of Dunkirk, France during World War Ⅱ. I enjoy it because I like learning about history and the military. The movie really shows the intense(紧张的) atmosphere of war. It reminds us to value the peace we have now. |
|
Student B: Beauty and the Beast has been one of my favorite stories ever since I was a small child. The version(版本) released in 2017 impressed me. In this movie, Emma's dress is so beautiful and the castle she lives in is glorious (壮观的). The movie's touching ending shows the power of true love. |
|
Student C: I love Coco the most. The story is about how a little boy realizes his musical dream. I was impressed by one line: "Remember me before the memory of love disappears. "The movie tells us a lot about love and family. Death might not be the worst thing in the world. The worst thing would be if your family members forgot about you. |
|
Student D: Have you seen La La Land? I like it a lot. It is about love and dreams. Many people dance and sing in a traffic jam at the beginning of the movie. Its musical scenes impressed me. The music helps the characters show what they are thinking. This makes La La Land a pleasant movie to enjoy. |
