My story

My story

I'll never forget the time when I first saw the bass. I was only ten years old and I was on summer holidays in China. I was partecirating a concert with my cousin,my sister and my father.

It was late in the evening becouse the concert started at 9.00 P.M. to 12.00 P.M. 

When the concert started,the singer came out with the band,I was real excited even if I couldn't understand was he singing.

Suddenly I heard a sound very stressed,Iwas attracted by the sound.

I asked my cousin ''Where did this sound come from?''

My cousin said ''The sound is from bass !''

It was than that I first saw the bass,and I wanted to become a bass player.

 

Mary Anning

Mary Anning

Mary Anning was born in England on 21 May 1799. She lived in the seaside town of Lyme Regis, In Dorest.

Mary Anning was born in a poor family. Her parents had nine children. Only Mary and her brother Joseph grew up. The other children died. As a baby, Mary was saved by a woman in a thunderstorm. Her father died when she was very young. She didn't go to school, but she could read and write.

Mary Anning was not trained as a scientist, but her finds changed science. She made only one trip away from home in her whole life. Famous scientists came to see her. They wanted to see the fossils she found.

I think she was very intelligent becouse she didn't go to school but she could read and write. She's not trained to be a scientist but she became a famous scientist.

" The world has used me so unkindly, I fear it has made me suspicious of everyone "

        -Mary Anning

Baa Baa Black Sheep

There lived a black sheep in a nearby village. Every spring, he shaved his black wool and sold it to the villagers. The villagers made sweaters and socks from his black wool . 

One day, the black sheep noticed that he had some more wool left. He though," it would be such a wast if nobody wants to buy the wool".

That afternoon, an old man came over to his wooden shed to see him. He wanted one bag full of the black sheep's wool. Then an old woman came over. She also wanted a bag full of wool. A short while later, a little boy arrived. He also wanted one bag full of wool.

Therefore, the black sheep prepared three bags full of wool for them. He was happy that all of his wool was sold off.

Legend of the Christ Child

There was a poor woodcutter, he had a wife and two children, Marie and Valentine.

The children always helped their father in his work, were obedient to him and were pious in nature and they always read the Bible.

Once, when they were reading the Bible, someone knocked on the window, it's a child! He was suffering from cold and hunger.

The family decided to help him and prayed for him.

In the wee hours of the morning, Marie was woken by sweet music.She woke up her brother.They found that the poor child was the Christ Child.

The Christ Child gave them his blessing and a Christmas tree with golden apple, silver nuts and lovely toys on every Christmas eve.Hence, it is said that it is in remembrance and anticipation of the Christ Child that the Christmas tree is decorated every year.

Frank Gehry

Frank Owen Gehry was born Frank Owen Goldberg on February 28, 1929, in Toronto, Ontario.

A creative child, he was encouraged by his grandfather, Leah Caplan, with whom he would build little cities out of scraps of wood.

In 1947, his family immigrated to the United States settling in California.

Studied at Los Angeles City College, and then University of Southern California's school of Architecture, and was a truck driver.

In the fall of 1956, he moved his family to Cambridge, where he studied city planning at the Havard Graduate School of Design, but he didn't finish it.

He made a lot of career.

The one that I like most is Disney Village.

Disney Village

Disney Village id a shopping, dining and entertainment complex in Disneyland Paris, Marne-la-Villée, France.

Originally named Festival Disney, it opened April 12, 1992.

It was designed by architect Frank Gehry.

It is a place to spend time relaxing with family and friends, finish the day shopping.

There is a large McDonald's.

Bars:The Rainforest Café, Cafè Mickey, The Los Angeles Bar&Grill...

A 570-seat IMAX cinema.

I like it because I can have fun there.

The wonder of the nature:

South America

The Amazon Rainforest

The Amazon Rainforest is the most important ecosystem on earth.

It produces 20 per cent of the world's oxygen and stores one fifth of the planet's fresh water.

It's very important for medicals becouse 25 per cent of all prescription drugs derive from ingredients found in rainforest.

The Amazon is the pharmacy of the world, it's real wonder, not facts and figures, but its value as a living forest and the secrets it has yet to reveal.

There are many rare animals such as :

Emperor tamarin

Blue poison dart frog

Jaguar

Howler monkey

China's education

In China we start school when we are three years old (kindergarten)

and then we go to primary school (after two years of kindergarten),

for six years, and then we have three years of junior middle school.

We have two types of high school: senior middle school for three years and vocational school for three years.

We have another two types of senior middle school: junior college (who have high grades) and vocational high school (who don't have high grades) and then we have four years of university, two or three years of postgraduate, and three or six years of doctorate.

We start school at eight A.M. to eleven A.M. and then we go home for lunch, we return school at one P.M. to four P.M. .

Before middle school we stay at school all the day. We take exams when we finish a unit.

I think the difference between the Italian school and Chinese school is that Chinese school has more attention for grades, but in Italian student have more free time then Chinese students.
