    In all the world's cultures, people sing, play instruments, and celebrate with music. It plays such an important role in our lives that people devote much time to its study. Experts (专家) are finding that because of the 1 our brains deal with music, learning to play an

instrument or just listening to music can have a large number of benefits (益处).

One study in Canada followed children's IQ scores for nine months,4 that children who studied music had the biggest test score improvements.

    Dragons are not real animals, but look like a combination (组合体) of many animals such as snakes, fish and deer. They have two horns (角) and a long moustache (胡子)。 With fantastic powers, they fly in the sky or swim in the sea. They can make rain, too. The Chinese dragon is a symbol of strength and goodluck. The emperors of ancient China loved dragons. Their clothes were covered with pictures of dragons.

    We are proud to call ourselves the "descendants (传人) of the dragon"。 In Chinese, "excellent" people are often called "dragons"。 A number of Chinese sayings and idioms talk about dragons, for example, "Hoping one's child will become adragon," which means hoping he or she will be successful.

    It is said that people born in the Year of the Dragon have certain characteristics. They are creative, confident, brave and quick—tempered. There are some famous" dragons" who have done excellent things, for example, Deng Xiaoping, the famous businessman Li Jiacheng and the movie star Zhao Wei. They are all very successful.

    There are also some traditional festivals about dragons in China, such as Dragon Head — Raising Day and Dragon Boat Festival. We have different kinds of activities to celebrate them. These two festivals come every year, but the Year of the Dragon comes every twelve years. It was the year of the Dragon five years ago.

    The dragon is very important in Chinese culture. As the" descendants of the dragon",it is necessary for us to know the views on dragons in our culture. It can help us understand why our parents always want us to be "dragons"。

A review of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

This week I have been reading Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. I think that it is one of the most interesting books I have ever read. The novel was written by the American writer Mark Twain in 1885. It follows the adventures of one of the characters from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, a twelve-year-old boy called Huckleberry Finn, or Huck Finn. At the start of the book, Huck Finn is staying with his father. However, his father drinks too much and does not treat him well, so Huck Finn runs away. He sails down the river on a raft (木筏) and comes to a small island. On the island, he finds a man called Jim. Jim is a slave (奴隶),and he has run away because he does not want to be sold again.

    Huck decides to take Jim on the raft to a place where he can be free. As they go down the river, two men join them. Both of these men like to trick people in order to get money. One of the men does this by pretending to be a king. They meet many interesting people and have many adventures on their journey.

    In the end. the two men who like to trick people are caught and thrown in prison. Then Jim is caught and locked up as a slave. Finally it looks like Huck may have to go back to his father. Yet, all turns out well for Huck and Jim. To see what happens, you will have to read the book. The novel has many interesting ideas. It shows us that people should not be slaves, and that all men are the same even if they look different. I believe that is true.
