I was nervous,no doubt about it,but I felt pretty fearfully sitting there unmoving on top of the horse,so I picked up my canter(使马慢跑).I went a few times around the stadium,saying I was warming up my horse.But really,I was taking some time to collect my thoughts and prepare myself before I jumped.Or to put it in a more simple and realistic tone,I was delaying.

Finally the time eame when I had to just suck it up and jump the horse.I swallowed,turned,and began heading straight for the jump.My palms began to sweat and I tightened myself.There was no turning back from this now.

I sat up in my jumping position as my horse picked up his speed to jump.Fear rushed through me as well as a sense of excitement.Before I knew it,I was up in the air,flying over the jump.As scared was,I was determined not to mess this up.My horse landed with a small beat on the other side of jump and continued cantering around the field like nothing had ever happened.Miraculously,I was seated firmly on the horse,unharmed.Surprised,I slowed down to a smooth running to process the that I hadn't just been thrown off a leaping animal.

My riding instructor congratulated me,proud that I got through it.I admit that I was proud as well.I'm not usually the kind of person that faces their fears.Instead,I usually run away from them.

I left home to support my sister in her efforts to present a music festival.She lives on the other side of the world, and I went to visit her,not wanting to leave and feeling like I was leaving home against my will.However,I wanted to show her my support because she is my only sister.

So I boarded the plane in mid-August,and hated the long flight.I arrived,tired and hungry.I had left my husband of 2 years,alone,in our old New Orleans house.

I was all set and ready to perform for my sister for the music festival on Sunday morning when I received a call from Chicago.The hurricane was predicted to hit our city,and many people had already evacuated,but my husband chose to stay behind.He could not get a call to me on the other side of the world,but he could call his cousin in Chicago.He gave his cousin a message for me,that he would be just fine,and not to worry.

As the day wore on,I finally took the stage in front of hundreds of Europeans,and I realized,thanks to CNN,that New Orleans was under water.

I performed,hoping that my husband would survive.And I performed perfectly.The audience stood and applauded.I left the stage and went straight to the TV.I saw the street sign near my home,of Humanity Street,but nothing below it,except water.

In the days that followed,I found out that my house,my car,my clothes,my furniture,everything that I'd left behind was gone...but not my husband.He survived by riding on the rear bumper(后保险杆)of a VW bus,holding on to the overhead luggage rack,in the pouring rain,down the highway from New Orleans,half-way to Baton Rouge.The rest of the journey was a long walk,but he survived.

By the first week of September,I flew back to the Baton Rouge airport,and hugged my husband.Since then,our relationship has grown deeper;we have completely rebuilt our house,bought a new car,bought new furniture and new clothes and joined an inspirational,spirit-filled community.

Parents in Spain are being urged to go on a weekend homework strike this month in protest against the unacceptable amount of after-school tasks their children are given.The homework load of Spanish children has long been a sore point with some parents,who argue that the burden is too great,places too much pressure on pupils and eats into family time.

According to a study by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD),Spanish 15-year-olds have 6.5 hours of homework a Week compared with an average of 4.9 across the 38 OECD countries. The Spanish Confederation of Associations of Mothers and Fathers of Students (Ceapa) is calling on parents whose children attend Spanish state schools to boycott weekend homework in November.

"We've lost a bit of common sense in this country when it comes to talking about education and we've got a system in which boys' and girls' free time has disappeared",said Jos Luis Pazos,president of Ceapa."Schools are passing on tasks to families that they shouldn't be.It starts with children from the ages of three to six doing half an hour's homework every day.For us,that's an unacceptable situation".

Pazos said Ceapa disagreed with the belief that children should endure huge amounts of homework in the hope that it would ensure them a better future.They should be.happy when they're little and that life isn't just about someone telling you that you have to suffer inexplicably(难以理解地).The model needs to change because society has changed.

Schoolchildren have to fit their homework around the school day,which varies from region to region and school to school,but starts early from around 8 am or 9 am and finishes anywhere between 2 pm and 5 pm.However,schools are increasingly using an 8 am-2 pm timetable to save money and in the face of evidence that suggests the longer hours do not yield better results.

A spokesman for the education department of Madrid said homework was a matter for individual schools rather than regional governments.They're the ones who know best what the need is in each case.

Do you often lose things? Don’t worry. Now a new tool, which can be connected to any object you might lose, may be the way to solve your problem. The Tile, a small square linked up to your iphone or ipad by means of Bluetooth, lets you see how close you are to your missing item, within a 50-to-150-foot range (范围). If the item goes out of your phone’s 150-foot range, it can still be found on other smart phones with the same app.

When you drive the app on your phone, it shows you, with green bars that increase or decrease, how close or far away you are from the Tile. You can also program it to make a sound when you get close to the Tile. And you can link up your phone with up to ten Tiles. And if your lost object — a dog, for example, or a stolen bike — go out of your own phone’s 150-foot Bluetooth range, you can set it as a “lost item”. If any of the phones with the Tile app comes within range of your lost item, a message will be sent to your phone, telling you its position. The Tile app also has the function to remember where it last saw your Tile, so that you can easily find where you left it.

Since the Tiles use Bluetooth rather than GPS, they are never out of battery or needn’t to be charged, and they work for one year before needing to be replaced. And the app works with all generations of iPhones and iPads.
