Reporter: 71

Chris: Well, it all started two years ago when I was having a trip to India. I visited a photographic exhibition of elephants and I realized that the only way to travel around India was on an elephant.

Reporter: What did you do next?

Chris: I flew to New Delhi and started looking for an elephant. I needed an elephant trained to carry people. I asked an expert for help. He taught me how to ride an elephant. He also helped me find an elephant.

Reporter:72

Chris: Not too long. I bought an elephant called Tara for about USD 6,000.

Reporter: 73

Chris: Tara and I set off from New Delhi a week later. We were heading to Sonepur in northern India. And what a ride! Elephants can travel at about 6 miles an hour. It took us 64 days to complete the journey.

Reporter: 74

Chris: Yes, a few. But nothing serious. On the third day, Tara hurt her foot. But that got better quickly. Also, there was a lot of heavy rain during the first week and we got very wet!

Almost two thirds of children want their parents to spend more time reading to them before they go to bed. Most of these kids like mom's storytelling more than dad’s. Researchers said they carried out a study that showed younger children aged 3－4 were most hungry for more stories. Over three quarters of them said they wished their parents to read to them more often. More than half of all children aged 3－8 said story time was their favorite pastime with their parents.

“The results of our research reveal the traditional activity of storytelling continues to be a powerful learning and emotional resource(资源)in children's lives，” said child psychologist Richard Wolfson.

Storytelling ranked before television or video games among pastimes for kids.82 percent of them said reading a story with their parents helped them sleep better. This finding came from a survey of 500 children aged 3－4 in Britain. According to the research，there are two ways for mothers to become the best storytellers. They can use funny voices to show different characters in a story. They can also make their own special sounds to keep the story interesting and attractive. When mom and dad are not at hand，celebrities will do: over 30 percent of children said they would like to hear a bedtime story from famous people like Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe. Other movie stars like Zac Efron，Miley Cyrus and Emma Watson are also welcomed by children.

“It can be very difficult for parents to find the time to read with their children. But these moments can help build close relationship between parents and children，and also can play an important part in their child's development，”said Wolfson.

I am a karate(空手道) player. I still remember my first karate competition. Like other players,

I was very excited about my event. I watched every player’s skills so that I could carefully avoid their moves.

Somehow, I got into the semifinals(半决赛). In the semifinals, I fell down and hurt myself. I still didn’t give up, so I fought back and got into finals. After all, getting the gold medal was my dream.

In the final competition, there were no supporters on my side, as I was a new face. Instead, the crowd was cheering for my opponent(对手). I could hear only my opponent’s name.

I didn’t mind the crowd’s cheering. I kept one thing in mind: focus, wait and attack. I had confidence in myself, and I knew that no matter how strong my opponent was, I had to give it my best shot and fight well.

When the time was up, I was leading with a 3—0 score. One thing I learned from that event is, no matter how strong your opponent is, don’t think you are weak or strong. Just give your best shot, and you will make your way to success.

Win or lose, you will gain important experiences. Learn from every step you take.
