If you ask a teacher in China what makes a good student, he or she would probably tell you that a good student is someone who gets high marks in exams.

It is true that most teachers share this opinion. 1. She says that as an educator, she feels sorry about what her students have to do every day. She hates to see her students study day and night for the endless exams. These teenagers have no time to relax or hang around with their friends. They shouldn't be turned into bookworms. 2. Shen Hong thinks a good student should be like this:

A good student is honest and kind to others. 3. lf he does something wrong, he says sorry immediately, Apart from this, a good student is always ready to help his friends when they are in trouble. A good student is one who always tries his best in studies. He makes full use of his time to learn both in and out of class. Hard work comes first no matter how clever he is. 4.

He often plays ball games, or goes camping with his friends. 5.

The first people who drank tea were the Chinese, because the bush grew wild all over the south of China. They liked the taste, and found that the drink could refresh(使精力恢复) them.

People living in Europe first learned about tea growing and drinking from a book printed in Italy in 1599. The writer said that tea was a wonderful medicine. Although people in Europe knew about tea in 1599, it was another fifty years before the first tea from China reached Holland.

A few years later, tea was brought overland from China to Russia. The long difficult journey was made over mountains and across deserts.

The new drink reached England in 1657. It was sold at one of the coffee houses. Only the very rich people could afford to drink.

The Slender West Lake Scenic Spot lies in the northwestern part of Yangzhou, with its south gate facing Great Rainbow Bridge Road. It covers an area of about 123.6 hectares. The Slender West Lake was named a National Key Scenic Spot in 1988 and National AAAAA Tourist Area in 2010.

The Slender West Lake used to be a long river named the Baozhang Lake, which is 4 kilometers in length and less than 100 meters in width. A famous poet Wang Hang in the Qing Dynasty once composed a poem, from which the Slender West Lake gets its present name and for which it is well known all over the world.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, many gardens were built along the Slender West Lake. Following the lines of the natural landscape, a large number of houses along the moats(护城河) were built in different locations during different periods. Emperors Kangxi and Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty both visited the Slender West Lake.

The Slender West Lake Scenic Spot is a symbol of the lake gardens in China. In a word, the Slender West Lake not only represents the beauty of natural landscape but also has a long history and rich culture.
