Steven is in the ninth grade now. He likes doing projects at school. Two years ago，he made a digital programme for the traffic system. After getting the prize， he got the advice from his father： “Do what interests you， and make sure you put your heart into it.”
Steven always prefers the projects which connect to our real life! He still remembers the project he has done. First of all， he tried to divide the whole project into several small parts. He usually gave himself some basic ideas after thinking them over and over again. When he met with some problems that he couldn’t work out by himself， he used to go to the teachers’ office and ask his teachers for help. At the beginning of his research such a question “How do I do it?” often came to his mind. As he kept on studying and discussing with his teachers， those “how” questions soon turned into another type： “What if I do this and that way?”
It took Steven more than four days to write the code(编码) on his computer. The desire(愿望) to solve the problems made him not get to sleep all nights. When he found his project going well， he jumped with joy. The last day of his work got deeply impressed(印象) in his mind. He went into trouble and didn’t know what to do next. At the moment， he noticed a man with headphones dancing while he was cleaning the room. This encouraged him to work on his project. He made good success at last.
Now Steven feels very proud of his projects and tries to do more projects at school.Is Steven at school?

Why play games? Because they are fun， and a lot more besides. Following the rules， planning your next move， acting as a team member—these are all “game” ideas that you will have throughout your life.
Think about some of the games you played as a young child， such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are entertaining and fun. But perhaps more importantly， they translate life into exciting dramas (戏剧)that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives， such as taking turns and teamwork.
Many children’s games have a practical(实用的) side. Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as adults. For example， some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones. It can be very helpful to exercise their hands and eyes， which is needed in hunting.
Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all， the Olympic Games， bring athletes （运动员）from around the world together to take part in the friendly competition. People who watch the event wave flags， knowing that a gold medal is a win for a whole country， not just the athlete who has got it. For countries experiencing natural disasters（灾难) or war， an Olympic win can mean so much.
Sports are also an event that brings people together. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. People on all continents play it—some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne， a Californian soccer player， has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He set up an organization which can provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a hopeful future.
