In the city of Guiyang，China，lives a girl named Li Fang．When she was a teenager，she dreamed of going to the United States．（1） "I had a picture of the daddy sitting in the living room，the mommy doing some cooking and their kids playing games on the floor．"
Li Fang decided to go to college in California．When she arrived，however，it was not the dream world she had imagined．"People were struggling with problems and often seemed unhappy and too busy，"she said．"（2） "One of her most difficult classes was P．E．When the class played volleyball，the other students were good at it．but she wasn't．One afternoon，the P．E．teacher had Li Fang hit the ball to her teammates so that they could knock it over the net．It was not a big deal for most people，but it made Li Fang scared．（3） A young man on her team seemed to understand what she was going through．He walked upto her and whispered（小声说），"（4） "Li Fang said，e'You will never understand how those words of encouragement made me feel．
Four words：You can do that．I felt like crying with happiness．"Perhaps she thanked the young man； she can't remember it．
Six years has passed．Li Fang is back in China，working as a salesclerk．"I have never forgotten the words．（5） "She said，"I am sure the young man had no idea how much his kindness meant to me．He probably doesn't even remember it．From this experience，I have learned a lesson．Whenever you say something to a person﹣cruel or kind﹣you have no idea how long the words will stay with them．"She is back in China．But still she hears those four simple words：You can do that．

In different countries around the world，most children must start schooling at early ages．And they become"adults"at different ages．Being an adult means having the rightto do certain things，such as getting a part﹣time job，voting（投票），getting married，or getting a driving license It also means accepting the responsibilities that go along with these rights．
In many countries，sixteen or eighteen is the age when a person becomes an adult．Young men and women at this age can get a part﹣time job，and begin to receive an income of their own．They no longer have to depend on their parents for money all the time．In Canada and America，sixteen is the age when one can get a driving license； in England，it is seventeen．There are responsibilities that go along with both of these rights．Getting a part﹣time job means that you have to pay income tax．Driving a car demands that you follow certain rules like buying car insurance．
Voting is another right that young people enjoy when they become adults．In the United States，Canada and Britain，young people have the right to vote at the age of eighteen．With this right also comes responsibility．For young people to use their right to vote wisely，they must have an understanding of the needs of society，and they must also learn how politics work．

It was a great gift to the world from ancient China．Before it was invented，sailors had to depend on the stars to find direction．After it was invented，the oceans were open to travel．And many new discoveries were made with the help of it． |
| Gunpowder |
It was one of the greatest inventions．It is said that in the 3rd century a Chinese man wrote about how to make it．At first，it was used for making fireworks．At the end of the Tang Dynasty，people began to use it in wars．The method of making it was brought to the Arab world and Europe in the 13th and 14th centuries． |

China was the first country in the world to make paper．During the Western Han Dynasty （202B．C．～9A．D．），paper was made in some places in China．It was developed in the Eastern Han Dynasty （25A．D．～220A．D．） by Cai Lun．He made paper with bark，ropes，rags and so on．Before it was invented，the ancient Chinese carved characters on animal bones and stones．They also wrote them on bamboo and wooden sticks． |
| |
It was developed in 1041﹣1048 in the Song Dynasty．A man named Bi Sheng carved characters on pieces of clay and wood．Then he put ink on them．After the characters were printed on paper，the pieces of clay or wood could be used again．This technology then spread to Korea，Japan and Europe．It was the basic method at that time． |

I used to hate my mother because she worked a lot and didn't spend much time with me．Then one Friday morning I took part in a three﹣day self﹣help program for teenagers．Whether you believe it or not，that weekend changed my life．

On Sunday，the leader did an interesting exercise called"Chocolate or Toys"．He asked a girl which she liked better，chocolate or toys．She chose chocolate．Then he asked her to choose again between chocolate and chocolate．Of course，she didn't have a choice．
