—Dear, I think you can.
Children all like playing games. For most children, the most useful way of 1 their time is playing a game. It doesn't matter what the game is. Things become better when they need a （n） 2 to play with. On the one hand, it is quite 3 for the development of a child's personality （个性）to win and to 4 the best ways to get that. On the other hand, if a child only cares about 5 then for him, playing a game is funny only when he wins. Or if he finds a better partner, he will get 6 and he doesn't want to go on playing.
It's parents' 7 to make their children know that: you can't always win and there are many unpleasant moments 8 when you have to learn how to lose. The idea is to compete, to prove you are good, not only to win.
In a word, playing a game is not funny only when you win. It is funny 9 you enjoy it and try your best to win. If you are just a little bit unlucky, don't 10 a lot. You will surely prove your abilities some other day.

LiMei | My favorite book is A Friend Like Henry. It's about how a family dog helps a boy deal with his autism （自闭症）.When I felt sad, my best friend gave me the book. It took me through depression （沮丧），heartbreak and joy. It made me become strong. It's worth reading. I hope you can read it. |
| Tony | Reading in the holiday is an interesting thing. Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea is my favorite book. It's about a captain's travel under the sea. The story is very interesting and the pictures are fantastic. This book can make you relaxed. |
| Mary | I like reading the Four Great Classical Novels of China although I'm a foreigner from Sydney. I can't wait to introduce The Romance of the Three Kingdoms to you. It taught me a lot about the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu. If you are interested in history, don't miss it. |
| MoXiaotian | My parents often send me many books because I'm studying in England now. In my opinion, The Little Prince is the best one. In this book, a young prince falls to Earth from a small planet and experiences a lot. It's not just a fiction story, but tells us about the correct values. If you read the English version, you can also learn some beautiful sentences. |
When you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory （记忆）works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault （过错）.But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be blamed （责备）, and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have, better memories? This is because they cannot read or write but they have to remember things, they cannot write them down in a small notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering things in a way as other people do.
Even in early times, people could realize the importance of dreams and knew that dreams gave meaning to life. Every great achievement has been the result of years of dreaming. If a person has a dream and holds fast to it, he or she will find a way to bring it into reality （现实）.
Children do not have much experience or knowledge. However, they are natural dreamers. We should not laugh at them for being naive. With their rich imagination, they will come up with fantastic dreams. History is full of examples. Many great men were dreamers when they were children. One such dreamer was Thomas Edison. He used to be ostracized （排斥）when he was in primary school, but his achievements were greater than everyone else's in his time.
Teenagers and young people should also be encouraged to dream. The world is full of successful teenagers and young people. They dreamt big and their dreams changed their lives and even the world. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates arc the good examples. They have developed technology and brought great progress to human besides making money for themselves.
Older people should believe that it is never too late to dream and that human mind is never too old to make dreams turn into reality. Colonel Saunders realized his dreams at the age of 67 and set up the biggest fried chicken company （KFC） in the world.
To dream is a wonderful ability which can lead to wonderful results. Olympic records were broken by players who were brave enough to dream. No one is too young or too old to dream and to make dreams come true.
Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words, we make our own happiness.
Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future--for example, getting into college or getting a good job that we fail to enjoy the present （现在）.You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret of living a happy life is to be active. Having hobbies make you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this by dancing, swimming or playing a sport. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.

Long ago, there was a queen who lived in a palace. She felt bored and said to her advisor (顾问)"All the things around me are too boring. I need a different kind of (beautiful). Let everyone know that I (hold) a competition for the most beautiful thing in the world. And the prize will be this crown (王冠).
Several days (late), lots of people came to the competition and showed
their things. The queen was not satisfied (满意)with what she saw. The advisor suggested, "What you (look) for cannot be brought for you. You must look for it by (you). What about a journey?"
The queen was (interesting) in the idea, so she started immediately. As she was on top of the hill near her palace, she looked down and (sudden) something cried in her heart. "Why have I never found my palace so beautiful?"
The queen spent one year (travel). She saw beauty on the farm, in the
forest and even in the stars twinkling (闪烁)at night on her journey. But what was the most beautiful thing? She thought it over. All of sudden, she understood beauty was everywhere. She (learn) to enjoy the world. She left the pieces of her crown at different places that she had seen. As time went by, the queen's crown got smaller and smaller until nothing (leave).
She found the most beautiful thing at last. It was the world!
What does it mean to be green? "Green" is more than just a color. It also means taking special steps to protect the environment — the water, the land, and the air we breathe. Why green? Plants are green, and without them the earth wouldn't be such a lovely home for us human beings.
Sometimes people call our society a "throwaway society". That means we are always throwing away old things and buying new ones. Many times, if you no longer need something, someone else just might need it. For example, if your brother is old enough not to play with his plastic bike, why not give it to another family who has a little kid so that they don't need to buy one? And one less large plastic toy doesn't need to be produced.
Recycling （回收利用）has never been easier. Many organizations will pick it up right in front of your house and some towns even require （要求）it. Tell your mom or dad you want to become "Chief of Recycling" for your family. Now that you know what things you can recycle, find a place to keep them. Make sure you encourage everyone in your house to think whether things can be reused or recycled before they're thrown away.
Almost everyone likes traveling. But next time before you travel around the world, take a look at your own backyard. Is there a place where you could plant a tree or put in a little fruit or vegetable garden? If so, get there and get your hands dirty. Then you can watch with pride as your tree takes root, and your garden plants grow into big plants full of ripe, red tomatoes or tiny, juicy blueberries. Who knew being green would taste so good?
