There are many problems among young people. They always say they are growing up. They can do the things they like. They drive cars quickly. They wear strange clothes. They like loud music. Many people think they are not good. But some of their parents don’t think so.
Their parents say, “Our children are very good. They like popular music, and they play it in their own rooms. They help in the house. You know they feel bored sometimes because there’s nothing interesting in the neighbourhood, no clubs and no sports. They don’t have anything to do.”
A teacher says that he thinks most young people are very kind. He thinks that it’s not bad for young people to like loud music because it can give them lots of energy and make them feel excited. Also, a lot of young people work very hard at school, and they can get good jobs later.
Lewis, a fourteen-year-old boy said, “I have much homework to do. I felt tired all day. But loud music can make me happy. It helps me do well in all my lessons.”

Helen loved small animals. One morning while she was walking in the forest, she found two weak birds in the grass. She took them home and put them in a small cage. She looked after them with love and the birds both grew well. They thanked her with a wonderful song every morning.
But something happened one day. Helen left the door of the cage open. The larger bird flew from the cage. She thought that it would fly away, so she grasped it. She was very excited to catch it. Suddenly she felt strange. She opened her hand and looked sadly at the dead bird. Her great love had killed the bird!
The other bird was moving back and forth (来回地) in the cage. Helen could feel the bird want to go out. It wanted to fly into the blue sky. At once, Helen took the bird out of the cage and let it fly away. The bird circled, twice, three times…
Helen enjoyed watching the bird flying and singing happily. Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her head. It sang the sweetest song that she had ever heard.
The easiest way to lose love is to hold too tight. The best way to keep love is to give it freedom.

Success is a key goal for most people. We are always trying to find the way to success, which means power, pride and glory (荣誉). There have been many stories of success I was told since I was a child. From then on, I have been hoping to be successful.
What is success? Different people have different opinions. To start with, some people, such as workers and waiters / waitresses, are looking forward to becoming rich, which allows them to buy what they want. They treat it as success. What’s more, some contestants, such as players, sportsmen and singers, are always trying their best to win. As long as they win, they believe that they are stronger than others. Last but not least, there are some other people who enjoy helping others. As the saying goes, the roses in her hand, the flavor (香味) in mine. Through helping others, we can also feel happy and successful.
In my opinion, success is quite simple. It means you can live the life you want and you can feel happy very often. Sometimes, money cannot bring you happiness, and you can’t have the feeling of success, because money is just the tool (工具) to achieve your goal but never the goal. Therefore, look for what you really want and then work hard for it. Then you are close to success.

When you’re having a holiday, one of the main questions to ask is which hotel or apartment to choose. However, when it comes to France, you have another special choice: treehouses.
In France, treehouses are offered to travelers as a new choice in many places. The price may be a little higher, but you do have a chance to call up your childhood memories.
Alain Laurens, one of France’s top treehouse designers, said, “Most of the people might have the experience of building a den (洞穴) when they were young. And they like that feeling of freedom when they are children.”
Its fairy-tale style gives travelers a special feeling. It seems as if they are living as a forest king and enjoying the fresh air in the morning.
Another kind of treehouse is the “star cube”. It gives travelers the chance of looking at the stars shining in the sky when they are going to sleep. Each “star cube” not only offers all the comfortable things that a hotel provides for travelers, but also gives them a chance to look for stars by using a telescope. The glass roof allows you to look at the stars from your bed.

My husband and I had just opened up a pet sitting business earlier that year. Our customers had slowly risen from three to thirty a month. We were busy through those hot summer months, driving between visits. Our work was strictly done at the pet owner’s home. It was almost too busy for the two of us, but we were making good money!
We asked pet owners new to our business to phone two weeks ahead so we had enough time to meet the owners and pets at their homes and make any following meetings before the owner leaves.
One day, we decided to take on a new customer just two days before they would leave. We met the family, filled in a form, and spent some time with their dog, Hercules. He playfully jumped on us and touched our hands and arms using his tongue. The family laughed as he did this, showing us that he was very loving.
Two days later I appeared at the house, alone. I came up to Hercules and said hello happily. I filled up his water bowl and cleaned any messes he made. Meanwhile, he was so lovely sitting beside. I thought this would be the good picture to send to the owners as usual. After the light and “click” sound went off, Hercules rushed at me. I didn’t know what had just happened until I noticed the drops of blood. I ran out and did the only thing—calling my husband.
Then I went to neighbors for help. My husband arrived after ten minutes. The helpful neighbor and my husband led Hercules back into his pen(圈). Then my husband and I took off to the hospital.
I must have looked like I was shot when I walked into the hospital. The nurses quickly moved me to a room. I asked the doctor in a weak but playful manner, “Am I going to die?” He replied, “Finally.”

Many children use the Internet to get useful knowledge and information, and to relax in their free time. But some of them are not using in a good way. Here are some rules to make sure you are safe and have fun on the Internet.

Jun, Korea Posted: 3 days ago | Question: First trip to the USA For my new job, I will travel to the United States next month and meet my American boss. This will be my first trip to the USA. I’m worried about correct business behavior and manners. My boss invited me to his home for dinner. Do you have any advice? Reply |
Sue, Miami Posted: 3 days ago | Re: First trip to the USA It’s a good idea to bring a small gift or something from your country. Don’t be surprised if your boss opens the gift right away. In the USA, people often open a gift when they receive it. In Korea, that is not polite, but it’s appropriate in the USA. Reply |
Sam, Los Angeles Posted: 2 days ago | Re: First trip to the USA Americans use their hands to eat some kinds of food, such as pizza and fried chicken. Watch your American hosts, and do what they do. Reply |
Kathryn, New York Posted: 12 hours ago | Re: First trip to the USA In Korea and Japan, it’s the custom to remove your shoes before entering a house. In the United States, you usually don’t take your shoes off. Once I was travelling in Japan and entered a house with my shoes on by mistake. Oops! Reply |
Lee, Korea Posted: 2 hours ago | Re: First trip to the USA Many Americans are very informal at home. One time I went to dinner at the home of an American business partner, I was surprised that everyone stood and talked in the kitchen while the husband and wife cooked dinner. Besides, unlike in Korea, everyone took part in the dinner table conversation, even the man’s wife and children. Reply |
Andrew, Washington Posted: 2 hours ago | Re: First trip to the USA I agree with Lee. I was surprised that American men often cook and that both the husband and wife come to dinner table and talk. You probably won’t speak about business during dinner, so my advice is to know some good topics of conversation. For example, you can talk about travel, food, music, or sports. Of course, it’s good to ask about your boss’s family. But it’s not polite to question about age, salary, religion, or politics. |
