Are you always happy during your vacation? Many people may say "yes". But last week I had a bad vacation.
My parents and I took a bus to the Great Wall We got on the bus at 7:00 a, m. But on the half way, there was something wrong with the bus. After an hour, it started again. It was about 11:00 a. m. when we got to the Great Wall.
We were excited when we stood on the Great Wall. My father took out the camera and wanted to take some photos. But just then, it started to rain. We had to go back to our bus. When we wanted to eat something, we found we left our food at home.

I've seen several movies of this kind, but this one is the best. It is so well made——some of the scenes are so beautiful.
——John
I went to see this movie with my 6-year-old daughter this Tuesday, really without knowing too much about it. My daughter and I were surprised at how funny it was. We just couldn't help laughing. I would recommend this movie to the whole family.

Saidie and Bessie are sisters. They are Americans. They live in the mountain village. Saidie is 104 years old and Bessie is 102 years old now. They tell their stories in a book called Having Our Day.
Here is some of their advice for living a long and healthy life.
★Get up early.
They get up at 6:00 in the morning.
★Have a good breakfast.
The sisters eat oatmeal(燕麦片),half a banana, bran(麸皮)and eggs with a little cheese.
★Take exercise every day.
The sisters like to do yoga(瑜伽). They also walk every afternoon.
★Eat a lot of fruit and vegetables.
The sisters like eating apples. Just like the saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away.”
★Don't get married(结婚)
The sisters have no husbands or children to worry about.
★Don't always listen to the doctors
When something is wrong with us, the doctors don't know what to do with us. They are always surprised to see us live so longer.

Are you sorry for not traveling during the National Day? If you stay a t home at that time, I think you are very lucky. Why? Because there are too many people everywhere. In many places of interest in China, it's too crowded to do anything.
It was very crowded in the West Lake on October 1st, 2013. You even couldn't take photos for you or your friends. All what we could see were people. It was reported that there were about 13 people per meter by the lake. My friends told me they could see nothing but many tourists(游客) on the Broken Bridge(断桥). "We couldn't walk if the people in front of us didn't walk," he said. He showed us a photo near the West Lake. In the photo, we hardly found him out, there were too many people.
So some people give the advice that we should not have the gold week(黄金周) any more. But other people say no about this advice. What's your idea of it? Are you sorry now for not traveling during the gold week? I love staying at home more than traveling next National Day.
Language students often think they have memory(记忆) problems. They worry because they can't remember words. In fact,the problem usually isn't with their memory. The problem is with how they study.In my opinion, using a right way is the most important.
To remember words better, you need to understand how memory works.There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. When you see, hear orread something, it goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memorylasts for only a few seconds, that means we will forget things soon inshort-term memory. You will only remember something longer if it goes in to long-termmemory. Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many, many books.And like a library, it's organized. When you put away(放好,储存) a book or memory, you can't just leave it anywhere. You have tochoose a place where you can findit again.
How can you do this with vocabulary? The answer is to work with theword and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing newsentences with the word in it. Even better, you can invent a little story aboutthe word, with people or places that you know. Another way is to make a picturein your mind with the word. For example, if the word is "height", youcan think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height.All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make themeaning of words stronger in your long-term memory. And they give a way to finda word when you need it.
This is my idea about how to improve ways to remember words, and Ihope it can help you.
