Being outgoing is good for your life. Those who are more outgoing like to meet lots of people and have more fun in life. In fact,being outgoing is not so hard as you think. Even shy people can be outgoing.
You can start becoming outgoing with your best friend. But the difficulty comes when you meet strangers or new friends. Smile more,and usually they will return your smile. In this way,you may have more talks. Start a talk,and just a simple"Hello!"or"How is it going?"is a good start. If you want to make interesting talks,you should read news in newspapers and prepare your views(看法),or surf the internet for new information and then keep them in mind.
The easiest way to become more outgoing is to go out. This is also the most important step. Go to a park,beach,club,party or any other place that you think can be fun.
Everyone has a home. People live in many different kinds of houses. Animals have different homes ,too.
Some animals live in holes(洞) under the ground. The mouse lives under the ground. His home has two doors. If any animal comes into one door,the mouse goes out from the other one. Some birds live in holes in trees. They come out for food in the daytime and go back to sleep at night. Snails' (蜗牛的) homes are quite interesting. They carry their homes on their backs. Cows,cats and dogs live in people's homes.
We can see all kinds of animals in the zoo. It is a big home for lots of animals. I think they should be free.

At a concert in Tsinghua University,Fang Jinlong,a master of the traditional Chinese instrument pipa,and the robots from the Moja Robot Band performed several pieces of Chinese music. The robot musicians in the band,Yuheng,Yaoguang,and Kaiyang,played traditional Chinese instruments at the concert.

During the concert,the robot musicians used their "fingers" and "mouths" to play the instruments. Many students said that was the first time they had seen humans and robots play together. And they never thought robots could play so well.
Mi said the pieces of music in the concert were specially made for the robots to play. And there are more performance plans for Moja in the future,introducing new pieces of music. The team will improve the musical sense and emotional (情感的) expression of robots.
