In Northern Scotland there is a long, deep lake called Loch Ness(尼斯湖).

More than 200 meters deep, it is the largest lake in the UK. People say a big monster lives in its dark, cold waters. It weighs more than 1,000 kilos and is at least ten meters long. Some people say it has a head like a horse. Others say it looks like a snake. Many people travel to Loch Ness to look for this strange monster, but only a few people have seen it. At least, they say they have seen it.

The Loch Ness Monster is a famous mystery .The first story about a monster in Loch Ness was told over 500 years ago, but the legend of the monster spread widely only in the twentieth century. In 1933, a husband and wife reported that they saw a big monster in the middle of the lake. Since then, a number of people have said that they have seen a monster in Loch Ness. Several people have taken photos, but at least one of them was a hoax (骗局) . During the 1960s, a team was formed to look for the monster. They took many photos and made movies, but they were never able to find a monster.

There is no real fact that a monster lives in Loch Ness, but there is also no fact that one doesn’t live. One thing is true about Loch Ness:there are a lot of tourists there.

HONG KONG-Nine out of ten Singapore citizens returned dropped wallets with money in them, but in Hong Kong only three out of 10 wallets were returned in an honesty test carried out in Asian cities by Readers Digest(读者文摘).

Larger cities did worse while in general people in smaller places returned secretly planted wallets, results from the experiment showed.

Readers Digest secretly scattered 140 wallets all over Asia, each with a name, address and phone number, family pictures, notes and money in it.

The magazine workers then watched to see what happened.

South Koreans in Seoul returned six out of the ten dropped wallets, while those in Inchon returned eight. 50 percent of the dropped wallets were returned in Bombay, Bangkok, Taipei and Kajang in Malaysia, with most people saying they would not keep what was not rightfully theirs.

It’s known that Chinese women in the past weren't given the right to receive a form education. But this doesn’t mean that they made no efforts to learn. One of the proofs is Nushu—literally meaning “female script”(女性书法)一a written language that was used by women in Jiangyong county, Hunan province.

This script was only used by women. It was developed from written Chinese. Hundreds of years ago, Nushu was taught at home by elderly women to girls. And during gatherings in villages women would use it to write poems to express the emotions they were hiding from men.People often regard the characters as symbols of some secret cults(邪教)”. But the fact is that many old poems written in Nushu talked about the women's difficulties in life and how they made it through hardship . The words were full of encouragement and positive energy.

After women got the right to attend school,Nushu gradually lost its functionality(功 能). But the spirit of Nushu is still important and meaningful for our society in modern times. Zhao Liming, a professor at Tsinghua University, started a project to keep Nushu alive because she was worried that this ancient culture will soon disappear. One of the project’s recent achievements is an app designed by Talkmate, to teach Nushu to more people. The app has been showed to people in September during the first Beijing International Language & Culture Expo. Zhao expects the app to present a true image of Nushu to the public in order that more people will be interested in Nushu.
