      Most people have flown a kite or have seen one fly in strong spring wind.    1     The ancient Chinese
were making and flying kites even before they were writing. A long time ago, the Chinese made kites to be
used in wars.    2      The kites were fixed so that they made sounds.     3     They thought those strange
sounds were made by the god in the sky.
       The ancient Chinese also flew kites to bring good luck and to make their crops grow rich and tall.
     4     Then they would fly the kites over water, letting the hook（钩子）hang  down to catch fish.
_     5      Some of these kites look like animals or birds, others look like trees or houses.

Studying too much?

     Kids enjoying their weekend in Fujian by picking fruit NEWSPHOTOMost people work or study from Monday to Friday. The weekend is usually a time of rest. But today's Chinese teenagers can hardly rest during the weekends.
According to a survey, 24% of the Grade 8 students in Beijing have classes at the weekend. Over 40% of the middle school students have less than eight hours sleep each night because of study.
And this isn't only in Beijing. Ji Chunying is a Grade 9 student in Guangzhou. The 14-year-old has to get up at 6:45 am on Saturday. Then she has a whole day of classes. On Sunday, she goes to extra* classes for math and physics.
    But Ji doesn't complain. She says her classmates all work very hard.
                                                        Finding time to have fun
     Zhao Yang, 13, is from Dalian, Liaoning. As a Grade 8 student, Zhao's weekend is less busy. But he still spends Saturday in school. On Sunday, after finishing homework, he plays basketball. "I feel happy because I still have time to do the things I like," he said.
     Some students are much luckier. They don't have to go to school on the weekend.
    Ding Yi, a Grade 8 student from Laiwu, Shandong, is one of them. And she's a top student.
     During the weekend, Ding usually gets up at 8 am. Then she spends some time doing homework. After that she is free to go shopping or watch TV.
     Ding said her mother once wanted her to try extra classes. But when they asked Ding's teacher about it, the teacher said it was unnecessary.
     "My teacher said I don't need to push myself too much. Learning well at school is enough," Ding said. "I feel pretty lucky."

     Monday of this week is Christmas'Day. Did you get some presents on this Christmas Day?
     A Christmas Day is the most important festival in Britain and some other countries. On Christmas Eve
(December 24th), people usually tell their children to put their stockings* at the end of their beds before

     Children believe Father Christmas will bring them Christmas presents. Actually, Father Christmas is

white candles*. Trees in the garden are often decorated too, with lights on all night. Father Christmas is
called Pere Noel in France. The Christmas meal is an important chance for family to get together with
good meat and the best wine. Not everyone sends Christmas cards.
     In Germany, people love to decorate their houses with some beautiful small things at Christmas.
Father Christmas brings presents in the late afternoon of Christmas Eve, after people have been to a
church meeting. The presents are then found under the Christmas tree. One person in the family will
ring a bell and call everyone to come to the room. On Christmas Day, some delicious food will be
cooked.

Dear World,
     My son starts school today. It’s going to be strange and new to him for some time. And I wish you
would treat him gently.
     You see, up to now, he has been the king of his own room. He has been the boss of the backyard. I
have always been around to treat his wounds* and to comfort* his feelings.
    But now things are going to be different. This morning, he’s going to walk down the front steps, wave
his hand and start on his great adventure*.
     So, World, I wish you would take him by the little hand and teach him the things he will have to know.
     Teach him there are heroes, leaders and friends in this world. Give him quiet time to think over the
mystery of birds in the sky, clouds in the sun and flowers on the green hill.
     Teach him to believe in his own ideas, even id everyone else tells him they are wrong.
     Teach him to stand and fight if he thinks he is right.
     Teach him never to put a price on his heart and soul*.
     Teach him gently, World, but don’t coddle* him, because only the test of fire makes fine steel. This
is a big order, World, and see what you can do. He’s such a little fellow*.
                                                                                                                                                 Mother
