Newspaper Response Aralysis 1

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/19/world/asia/19survivors.html?pagewanted=1


This article is in the " New York Times" by Edward Wong. This article is the affecting story about the couple.

Everyone know that in May 12th, China happened a very bad event. The 8.0 grades earthquake killed many people. This article was talked about the couple who pushed down in the rock. At first they thought they woule die, but they didn't give up hope. They use the word to encourage each other. Although in this accident the husband wanted to die, the wife encouraged him all long. Then the husband insisted on. In the end they survived. Although the wife lost her leg, they known that life was very important, they cherished each other than before.

When I finished reading this article, I was very moving. Because I think this accident was very heavy, but the people can staunchly face it. I know that sometimes the love can give everybody the courage and hope. It will also encourage everybody that when we befall the problem, if only we have the belief, we can succeed.

Which do you think is the best place for international students to live? home stay? host family? share house? or apartment? explain

I think this question is very important for every student who first comes to the U.S. It also includes me. Before I came to the U.S, everyday my parents and I talked about this. I also searched much information on the Internet. In my opinions, I think the best way is living in the apartment.
First, it's free. Everybody has their own life's spare in their country, so they don't want to other people to brother them. If they live in the home stay or host family, their home mother will restrict them. Sometimes it's not good for them to make friends.
Second, it's convenience. Now many apartments include water, electricity, coal and some other fee. It can economize our time to do this. We can use these times to do other things that we very interested it. Some apartments also have gymnasium. We can use it to make our body healthy. Many apartments also have the convenient traffic and comfortable environment.
Finally, it's safety. Many apartments have the safety precautions. For example, many gates must import cipher when people came in. Some floors have the monitors to protect the people.
This is my images. I think everyone has different ideas. I hope you can tell me what is you best choice.

Christina's life in the US- This is the flash.....

What's my dream in the future.....

If you ask me this question in my childhood, I would say:" I want to be a teacher, a doctor, an actress....and so on..." . But now if you ask me this question, I will tell you I have three dreams, to be a respected person, life very colorful and beatific, and have a great job.......

First, I want to be a respected person. I know many people want to be a famous person because they think maybe many people will adore and respected them, but in my opinion, I want to be an ordinary and not ordinary person. The reason why I want to be an ordinary because I want to be a low-pitched person, and the reason why I want not to be an ordinary because I want to do things very high-key. I also know if you want to be a respected person first you must respect the other people and respect yourself.

Second, I want my life will colorful and beatific. I think life not noly work hard, but also we must know how to enjoy your life. Enjoy life doesn't waste money, we should use many to do some significative things. For instance, we can contribute our money to help the poor and homeless children, we can travel to somewhere to see the nature scene, we can buy book or collect your interested things to enrich our life, we also can have time to play with your family......

Third, I want to have a great job. This job must to be interested because I can do every things very exciting. That job must can give me more colorful and feeling.

Maybe you will think my dream is so nice that maybe it will be not come true....but I want to try my best to come true my dream. I hope my life in the future will be successful. I know everyone has own dream, so I hope your dream also comes true!!!!!!Heihei
