    The next morning, the two visitors continued their 5. After they walked a few miles, the wise man said to the young man, "Go back and push the cow off the cliff (悬崖）. "Why? Without the cow, they will have nothing. " The wise man repeated his order, "Go back and 6 the cow. "

    When I was six years old, my mom told me that I could find anyone's number in the phone book. I used to look through the phone book for hours trying to find Michael Jordan's phone number. When I couldn't find it, I just dialed seven numbers. When someone answered, I'd ask, "Is that Michael Jordan?"Obviously, I always had the wrong number.

    A year later I started playing basketball at my local recreation center. It was very big. I never thought in my wildest dreams that a basketball court could be inside a building. The recreation centre had a special smell in it, sort of like hot rubber. I guessed it was from the shoes hitting the floor so fast and hard. The atmosphere on the court was carefree. Our biggest excitement of the day was when we actually made a shot. We celebrated wins over ice cream at a fast food restaurant.

    I got good at it, and confidence grew. I played it all the time until the sixth grade. As soon as junior high school came, I stopped playing basketball and focused on school. When senior high school started, I tried out for the school team and made it. We worked hard. Every week we did 300 push-ups and 300 sit-ups on our own. Our coach encouraged the sit-ups to keep stomach power, because it gave us so much control when we were playing basketball. If we didn't want to do the sit-ups and push-ups, we could practise dribbling (运球) and shooting more. It's just us, the ball, the court and the net. But don't take my word for it. See for yourself. After all, I'm just one kid playing the game.

    Nan Weidong and Nan Weiping live and work in a small Beijing apartment (公寓房间). They come from Anhui Province. They go to the local market in Beijing to buy lots of vegetables and they are used for making musical instruments.

    The two grew up with vegetables around them. Their music teacher father taught them to learn traditional instruments from a young age. When they were teenagers, they joined a local music group.

    But it wasn't until two years ago that they thought of making instruments out of vegetables, and they have been interested in it ever since. They make holes in different kinds of vegetables and get different kinds of instruments.

    "The deeper the hole, the lower the pitch (音调). Theshallowerthe hole, the higher the pitch," said Nan Weiping.

    The two have taken part in lots of talent shows (达人秀) in China and often get 30,000 to 50,000 yuan for a performance. Each show needs making a whole new set of instruments.

    Though the size and shape of the vegetables is important, the most importance is placed on freshness, said Nan Weidong.

    "If the water content (含量) in vegetables loses, the tune (曲调) will become higher, or even out of tune. So we choose vegetables with as much water content as possible," he said.

    "The vegetables have to be hard. We can't use vegetables left over for days. They are too soft to be played."

    Last summer I went to one of the world's most famous historical places, the Forbidden City in Beijing, China. It was the home of the emperors (皇帝) of the last two dynasties (朝代) in China, the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

    The Forbidden City was built in 1420. The palace has over 10,000 rooms. It was where the emperors dealt with the official business with their ministers (大臣).

    In Mandarin (普通话), the Forbidden City is called the  Purple Forbidden City. However, the color of the palace itself is not purple. The color purple stands for power of the great emperors of China.  It was so sacred (神圣的) that the common people could not even dream of ever going in.

    The emperor also had some of the largest festival celebrations at the Forbidden City. During Chinese New Year, the emperor would invite all the members of his family and his officials to a banquet. The banquet had a hundred and eight Chinese dishes. It was such an expensive banquet that it could feed a common family for three generations (三代人).

    Right now the Forbidden City is known as a historical site for tourists from all over the world. Everyone can go in there. It is a museum with priceless Chinese antiques (古董) and treasures in it.

    I really learned a lot about the Chinese culture and its history from this trip to the Forbidden City. It was like a dream which has come true. And I was excited to go on the trip and see the things that I had always wanted to see.
