The Piano Lesson

Jenny wasn’t interested in playing the piano. She liked writing stories and acting them out with her friends. But Mrs. Windsor gave her piano lessons for free, so she felt she should have a try. Every Sunday she had her piano lessons in Mrs. Windsor’s house.

One Sunday morning, Jenny walked into Mrs. Windsor’s music room and sat down on the piano bench(长凳) as usual.

“Hello,” Jenny heard a voice behind her. She turned around and saw a young girl.

“What’s your name?” The girl asked.

Before Jenny could answer, Mrs. Windsor walked in and said, “Jenny, this is my niece(侄女), Pasha. Pasha, this is Jenny. I need to go to hospital, so Pasha will give you your lesson today.”

Pasha sat beside Jenny on the piano bench and asked, “What piece do you like best?”

“I don’t know.” Jenny said. “They’re all the same to me.”

“You mean you don’t have a favorite?” Pasha was surprised.

“No, not really.” Jenny said.

Pasha opened Jenny’s music book and asked Jenny to play.

After about a page or two, Pasha gently(轻轻地) put her hand on top of Jenny’s. Jenny stopped. Then Pasha said, “Jenny, what are you hearing in the music?” Jenny looked at Pasha strangely.

“I don’t know.” Jenny said.

“Let me try and you listen,” Pasha said. “All you have to do is learn to hear the stories in the music.”

“I’ve never thought of it that way.” Jenny said.

“Let’s try together, shall we?” Pasha smiled. Together they played that afternoon and tried to find the story in the music. That day Jenny found playing the piano was not that difficult.

Have you ever walked down a city street and suddenly seen a bright garden full of vegetables and flowers?

It may be a community garden. The community gardens are planted by the people in the community. They are not just pretty places. They improve the neighbourhoods.

People first started planting these gardens during the 1970s. At that time, the price of vegetables and fruits was rising. In many city neighbourhoods, crime(犯罪) was increasing. There were also many other problems. People decided to get together to plant gardens to fight against these problems. The gardeners thought they might make the area more beautiful and improve people’s life.

These gardeners were right! Community gardens have many benefits. They improve their neighbourhoods. They also make people feel they belong to the community. When people work together in a garden, they feel they are connected with each other. People work on a small area within the garden. They grow vegetables or fruits. Each person decides what he or she is going to grow. However, they also work together to help each other. Some members have gardening experience. They can help those who are just learning how to grow vegetables and fruits.

Sometimes, garden members pay for supplies. The supplies usually include small plants and tools. Many community gardens have sponsors(赞助者). They pay for the supplies for the gardens. It helps to keep the gardens going every year. Sponsors may be parks, schools and local companies. Some groups want to be a part of the community. They help clean up and beautify a neighbourhood. They also pay for the supplies.

Community gardens give people a chance to work together. They can make the community stable(安定的). There are many programs of community gardens. Some gardens provide programs for children and elder people. They may provide classes. They may give the vegetables and fruits to poor people. Community gardens also improve air.

Extracurricular(课外的) School Activities

Many schools today provide various extracurricular activities. Some activities are before school, some are after school, and a few may even take place on weekends. Many parents like their children to take part in these activities. Yet some parents are still a little dubious about it. Actually, these activities have many advantages for students. It is a wise choice for parents to allow students to get involved in extracurricular activities at school. It can help students to develop many working skills, people skills, and more.

When students get involved in extracurricular activities, they get involved in different interests. These activities allow them to develop various interests that they may have.

It also helps to raise the self-esteem(自尊) of students. Many students feel worthless or there is nothing they are good at. Everyone wants to find something that they are really good at, and extracurricular activities provide the opportunity for them.

Students can also learn relationship skills. They need to get involved in social activities and learn how to act properly in social situations. These activities give them a chance outside of school to do this, while they are still supervised(监督) by adults.

Of course, while there are many excellent benefits of extracurricular activities for students, you need to consider how much is too much. It can be a great choice to get involved in a few different activities, but too many activities can have negative(消极的) effects. If students take part in too many activities, they often have problems in their studies. They may not get enough rest. They may not have time to relax. It’s important for students to set some limits to extracurricular activities. Students can pick out a couple of their favorites and make sure they can handle(处理) them. Some kids feel like they have to take part in many activities to be a success, and this is not good to them.

When students get involved in extracurricular activities, there are certainly excellent benefits that they’ll enjoy. They are doing it for their future success. It’s important that students don’t try to “do it all”.

Up in the Sky

Take a trip up a hill on a windy day. What is flying high in the sky? It isn’t a bird or a plane. It is a kite!

Kids and adults like flying kites. Long ago, the first kites were made by Chinese people. Then, people around the world began flying kites.

One story tells a man’s hat got lifted off by wind. He had fun chasing(追赶) his hat, so he did it again! His hat became the first kite. Other stories tell that people liked watching leaves on windy days. They tied leaves to strings(线) and watched them fly.

Long ago, kites became important in keeping China protected. A man might be lifted up by a kite while he spied(监视) on an enemy. He could use the kite to fly high like a plane. He could also fight from the air!

Kites come in many shapes, sizes, and styles. They are usually made of cloth or paper. A kite might be shaped like a bird, a fish, or just a box. Kites are also painted with colors.

You can use a kite to catch fish. First you tie a fishing line to a kite. Then you put bait(鱼饵) on the line. You watch the kite with hopes as it flies over the water. When you pull the kite down, you might find a fish on your line! Some people think this is more fun than using a fishing pole(杆).

Many countries have special days to honor kites. People make, sell and fly many types of kites. There are several kite festivals in China. The Beijing International Kite Festival is usually held in April every year. People spend all days flying kites. You might see famous fighter kites. People fly these kites quite fast and try to cut other flyer’s lines.

There is much to learn about kites. From long ago in China until now, kites have had many uses. They have been used for spying, fighting, and fishing. But the best way to use a kite is to fly it high for fun!
