　　Now, ladies and gentlemen, let's warmly welcome contestant No.1 QiuChenxin from FuJian

　　Host: How are you?

　　QiuChenxin: Thank you, (and you?)

　　Host: What is your topic today?

　　QiuChenxin: My topic is "I like English".

　　Hi, my name is Qiu Chen Xin. I'm from Fuzhou, Fujian Province.

　　I'm smart and I like English very much. I'm lucky that my mother is an English teacher. She began to teach me English when I was very young. I enjoy learning English because I think English language is as beautiful as music. I like to watch Disney cartoons in English, such as "Snow White and Seven Dwarfs", "Pinocchio", "Dumbo" and many others. My American friend Amy said they were also her favorite when she was at my age. Besides, I love watching English movies for children, like "Home Alone", "Harry Potter" and so on. I improve my English a lot by watching English cartoons and movies, and have great fun at the same time. Outlook English also helps me a lot in my English study. I've been watching this program for nearly a year. Now I can use English to communicate with foreign people. Last year, I took part in an English-speaking contest in Fuzhou and won the first place.

　　I like English. What about you? Come on and study English with me. English will make your outlook brighter. Thank you.

　　Host: Making your outlook brighter by speaking English. That is our words. Thank you for that.

　　We all like English. I believe after contestant No.1's speech, to ensure the consistency of the judge's panel, the judges will have a short discussion after the first 3 contestants'speeches.

　　Contestant No.1. Thank you very much. We will meet you later.

　　And next is contestant No.2. WangZhengyang from SiChuan.

　　Nice to meet you.

　　好的在二号选手开始比赛之前,让我们看一下他的个人资料.他喜欢捉蝴蝶.

　　A very special habit.

　　Host: Do you know a lot about butterflies?

　　WangZhengyang: I know a little about the butterfly. They are very beautiful and flying in the sky like flowers.

　　Host: Do you just have the habit yourself or some of your parents (family member in your family) that told you to collect butterflies？

　　WangZhengyang: I collect butterflies by myself, but sometimes, my mother will help me to make some butterfly symbols. That is great.

　　Host: Maybe someday you can show your collection to us.

　　WangZhengyang: I'd like to see.

　　Host: What is your topic today?

　　WangZhengyang: My topic is "worry about forest".

　　Host: Let's hear that.

　　WangZhengyang: Ladies and gentlemen, I am Wang Zhengyang from Chendou Liangshuijing Street Primary School. Today, I'll express my worry about the forest.

　　A forest is a large piece of land with a lot of trees. There are many trees and flowers in the forest. Many beautiful animals and insects live in there. There are thousands of birds too. A forest is a noisy place!

　　Trees are most useful in preventing good and rich soil from being washed away during heavy rains. A long time ago, man in the past had no enough knowledge about science of nature. They cut down too many trees and never planted any new trees. By and by, the rich land changed into useless deserts where nothing could grow.

　　But now some people still cut down the trees to made something or sell the wood to make money. Many birds, animals and insects die. Because they have nowhere to live and they do not have enough food to eat. When there are no more trees in a forest and the animals eat the grass and small plants, the forest will become a desert!

　　Here I want to tell every one: Our forests are in danger. The animals are in danger! The environments of human being are in danger! So let's protect the trees! Let's protect the forest! Let's protect our earth!

　　Thank you.

　　Host: You are really convincing speaker.

　　WangZhengyang: Thank you very much.

　　Host: The next one is contestant No.3.LiMengQi

　　Before we meet this contestant. Let's take look at her resume. Let's give applause to contestant No.3.

　　You can start your speech now.

　　LiMengQi: My name is LiMengQi; I am 11 years old and studying in LuoYang foreign language school. Today I would like to tell you my hometown.

　　My hometown is beautiful! She is famous historical-cultural city with a history of 4,000 years. Can you guess where is it? Yes, she is Luoyang.

　　As everyone know. The famous flower in our city is peony. In the days of 10-25 of April every year is the peony festival. I know a poem is about peony. That is Enjoy the Tree-Peony, written by LiuYuXi who is a great poet of Tang Dynasty."Too coquettish, peonies in front garden, lotus on the pool, too solemn. Tree-peony only, the beauty of nation, moves the capital, with its blossom."

　　The person in Luoyang is friendly and well known by local food. The places of historical interest in here are long men Grottoes: White horse temple, Wangcheng park and Baiyuan Garden. Baiyuan Garden is a great poet BaiJuYi in Tang Dynasty located here.

　　Well, My dear friends, don't you think Luoyang is a beautiful city! And Luoyang warmly welcomes all of you to our hometown!

　　Thank you.

　　Host: Thank you for your invitation to your hometown.

　　And after first 3 contestants finished their speeches, our judges will have a short discussion about their marks standard.

　　Now, we are taking a break. Because of the judges are having short discussions. I'd like to take this break by asking a couple of questions to some of our audience members.

　　The girl is sitting here is from Taiwan.

　　Host: Would you introduce yourself to the camera?

　　Audience: My name is HuangYurou, I am form Taiwan，but I am living in Nanjing now.

　　Host: Good evening, welcome back to CCTV the 4th annual star of outlook English competition. Now, you are watching the children's semi-final.

　　We are in the very first part. Prepare Speech.

　　After the contestants No.1 to 3 have finished their part, our judges will a short discussion about their marks standard. I think now they have come to an agreement about this. So, let's welcome the judges back to the seats.

　　Let's welcome the first three contestants from contestant No.1 to 3.

　　Host: Miss.Feng? How about your discussion?

　　Miss.Feng: We think we have exchanged ideas on scoring and we have reached the agreement.

　　Panel of the judges will score for the three contestants in row. First for contestant No.1. Full mark is 50 points.

　　Host: Do you feel nervous?

　　Contestant No.1: No,

　　Host: No? You are very confident. And next for contestant No.2. WangZhengyang.

　　Please scores for contestant No.3. Ok, thank you all. You can take a break and get ready for the next round.

　　Host: Now let's continue the competition, and next is contestant No.4. ZhaoCunshen.

　　ZhaoCunshen: I never forget the day on May 24th 1998. It was the first time I used computer to print a birthday card to my mum. She was so surprised and asked: "Oh, a perfect present, did you do that, my dear son? Thank you!" "You should thank the computer. I just printed that." I answered.

　　Computer became my common friend at my five years old. It's so magical to me.

　　After we came back from Canada in 2000, I often send some messages to my foreign friends by E-mail. Computer became my better friend accordingly.

　　China lost 0:3 to Turkey in the first group match of FIFA World Cup Korea Japan last year. I was too sad and turned on computer quickly to play the FIFA games against Turkey too. I won them with higher score 10:0. Computer gave me a lot of help in relaxing myself on that day and became my best friend.

　　Computer is a very useful tool in our life, in our study as well as works. I love my best friend, the marvelous computer. It is the greatest invention. No long distance exists now.

　　That's all, thank you.

　　Host: Thank you. That is lovely.

　　In case, you lose the competition, go back to your computer to play other game to regain your confidence. The judges will be going to score and they use the computer also. The keyboard, I think.

　　ZhaoCunshen: Thank you.

　　Host: The next one is contestant No.4 LongYuntian. Before we meet her. Let's take a look at her personal information. What is your topic?

　　LongYuntian: It is homework.

　　Host: I think we meet everyday.

　　LongYuntian: I think a lot of students do not want to talk about homework. But I think home work is an interesting topic, so I choose it.

　　Host: Ok, let's find out how interesting in it.

　　LongYuntian: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, my name is Linda; I feel it's my pleasure to give a talk. My topic is homework. You know sometimes, I'm always thinking if we don't have any homework to do, what will happen? It's really hard to imagine, you know. Maybe everyone will be crazy and happy. Maybe all the students will go traveling on weekends, or just relaxing.

　　Well, for me, it's another story. I think I will be in a disaster. Of course it's not a real disaster, you know, what I'm going to say is my mum will leave me a lot of things to do including homework, housework, going shopping, cooking, you know, sort of things like that. I love to do some cooking, do some cleaning, or shopping with mum, but I hate to do so much homework, I like interesting homework, like, playing games, or making up stories, you know, those things, very interesting, very vivid.

　　I really don't like boring things, it's too dull, it makes me sleepy, However, I love to do one thing, and even it's homework that is English. I find that I'm crazy about English. And I love to recite English words. I feel it's fun that I can have a big vocabulary.

　　Learning English is my first goal, after that, I will learn Japanese, French, German, and so on. I really love languages; I think later on, I will be a language expert. Believe it or not! I have the confidence.

　　Host: Thank you, how lovely student she is. In the later competition, we will know how large your vocabulary is. But first let's see what is scores?

　　LongYuntian: I am not really that be, because of some words I can speak but I cannot write. Just like most of the students.

　　Host: But the first step is speaking right. Right? Please scores for contestant No.5.

　　Host: Before we meet the next contestant. Let's take a look at her personal information on the big screen.

　　Ok, let's welcome this want to be of TV hostess No.6.

　　Host: Hello.

　　Sun Tian: Hello.

　　Host: How are you?

　　Sun Tian: I am 8 years old.

　　Host: For the first question, how are you?

　　Sun Tian: Fine, thank you.

　　Host: So you are only 8. But other contestants are older than you. Are you confidence? Do you nervous?

　　Sun Tian: No.

　　Host: So, what is your topic today?

　　Sun Tian: "This is me."

　　Host: You can start now.

　　Sun Tian: Hello, everyone. My English name is Kylie. My Chinese name is Sun Tian. I am 8 years old. I am a girl. I am from Guangxi. Now I live in Nanning.

　　Do you want to know how I learn English? Two years ago I lived in Rong Xian. It's a small town. One day, Dad said, "You have to go to learn English in another place." I asked Dad, "Why do I have to learn English?" Dad said, "Because English is useful." Then I came to Nanning.

　　First I did not like Nanning, because I had no friends here. My mom and dad were not here with me. I felt very lonely. Two years later my English have become very good. I had to thank to my dad. If he hadn't asked me to study English, I would not have spoken English so well or have read so many English stories.

　　In the future when I grow up, I like to go back to my hometown, Rong Xian to teach the children English. Then they don't have to leave their mom and dad to go a place far away to learn English like me.

　　This is me. Thank you.

　　Host: She finished just in time. She has a great dream. Is your father here?

　　Sun Tian: No.

　　Host: Would you like to take the opportunity to thank your father?

　　What would you say to your father?

　　Sun Tian: Thank you.

　　Host: That is it?

　　Sun Tian: Thank you, do not worry, I never let you down.

　　Host: Ok, that is great.

　　Have you ever been a hostess in some program?

　　Sun Tian: Yes.

　　Host: Tell us about that.

　　Sun Tian: Just last year of the children'day, school want me to be (the hostess).

　　I was the hostess, and then, one of my teacher miss. Tan said that I am very good. I'd like to be the hostess.

　　Host: So, you have the talent to be a good hostess. She has experience. So, that is why she does not have any stage-frighten at all. Very confidence.

　　The judges will be working on the scores. Thank you.

　　Host: Let's continue the competition. The next will be No.7. Let's have look at her personal information.

　　Ok, let's give a hand to contestant No.7.WangJianni from JiangSu.

　　WangJianni: Hello. Everybody.

　　Host: What is your topic today?

　　WangJianni: My topic today is "the blue sky".

　　Blue is my favorite color. It is the color of the ocean. My mom said blue should also be the color of our sky, but I always say "no" to her since in my 11 years of life I seldom have any experiences that the color of the sky is blue.

　　Mom said I was right but she was right, too. She said when she was young there were few factories and automobiles. Instead there are more green trees, grasses and crops surrounded by clean rivers. How wonderful it was when she was playing outside! She was running after dragonflies and butterflies, and a cat was running after her, while the birds were singing at the top of a tree and a squirrel was looking at her from the ground. The sky was blue! Really Blue! I was very jealous of her. How I hope that I could see the blue sky!

　　One night, I had a dream. I dreamed that I was lying down there on the grass. All passing buses, cars and scooters have no tail-gas. There are garden-like factories beside me. The construction sites are clean without dust. In my dream, the sky is blue. Suddenly, I become a bird flying freely in the blue sky!

　　Host: You have a blue jacket. Because you like blue so much.

　　WangJianni: Yes.

　　Host: So the judges will be working on your scores. Actually, this is your second times. You are taken part in this event. Last year, you also came into the national final. So, do you think you make some progress this year?

　　WangJianni: I think so. I am last coming into the national final. And I take part in the competition in JiangSu.

　　Host: This year, you feel more experienced. Now let's see the scores for contestant No.7.

　　Let's move to contestant No.8.JieLidi. First, his personal data. Let's welcome contestant No.8

　　JieLidi: Hello.

　　Host: What does that mean?

　　JieLidi: It is confidence.

　　Host: So are you quite confidence with this part?

　　JieLidi: Actually, my topic today is "confidence".

　　Host: Really? So you just start with the first sentence with a gesture. So you can start.

　　JieLidi: Good evening everyone! My name is JieLidi. Today, my topic is: "Confidence".

　　As we all know, failure is the mother of success. But what I want to say is that success is the child of confidence.

　　Without confidence, things can become negative and uncomfortable. I remember, during an English class, I wanted to make a sentence using the word "listen".

　　I should have said: "I listen to the Voice of America" but I was too nervous and said, "I listen to the Noise of America". Everybody in the class laughed. Since then I wanted to train myself to be confident.

　　Now, confidence makes me brave and courageous. Take this speech for example. I wanted to enter this competition, but I would feel very embarrassed if I made mistakes. Just then, I thought about my dream. My dream is to become a scientist when I grow up. If I am not confident, how can I overcome difficulties I face?

　　If I am not confident, how can I succeed in developing myself in the future? I will do it! Today, I am making a speech in public and I feel proud and confident!

　　I am sure, in the future, with confidence, I will go forward-always forward. Confidence will make my dreams come true!

　　Thank you!

　　Host: Thank you!

　　Host: And next one is No.9.Guojiahao. Before meeting him, let's take a look at his personal information. Let's give a hand to contestant No.9.

　　Nice to meet you.

　　Guojiahao: Nice to meet you too.

　　Host: What is your topic today?

　　Guojiahao: My topic is "help the frogs".

　　Host: Let's see how you help the frogs.

　　Guojiahao: "Oh, no! We should have been friends…" the frogs said to the cooker before dying. Later, these frogs became a dinner and were served to the guests in a restaurant. "Fried frog, very delicious!" said the guests. Hearing that, other frogs who were just waiting for death in a box wept at their misfortune.

　　A little frog asked his mother, "Mum, why are you weeping? "

　　"Because the cook is going to kill us for someone's dinner, and we will be eaten!" the mother answered.

　　"Mum, do people only eat frogs?"

　　"No" mum shook her head with a sigh, "people just think we are more delicious than other food. Actually, they have thousands of kinds of food."

　　"But we have helped people a lot. We eat insects to protect their crops. People and frogs should be friends," the little frog told his mother.

　　Yes, people and frogs should be friends. Our friends, frogs, protect our crops and the environment, but we, people, only reward the frogs by killing and eating them.

　　What we do only for ourselves often causes great trouble to other creatures. Man is the most intelligent creature in the world, but why are we so selfish and short sighted? Can you imagine if in several years a teacher teaches the word "frog", and the kids ask with confusion "what is a frog?" because the world has no more frogs. What a scary picture!

　　Thank you.

　　Host: Please enter your mark for contestant No.9.

　　Can you tell us more about yourself? Is there any special about your school.

　　Guojiahao: Yes. My school is very good and my school have too teams, Science team and model team. We are many matches.

　　Host: Model team? What is model team?

　　Guojiahao: We make planes.

　　Host: So you are a member of model team, yes?

　　You are also like to play electric piano, right? So what is your favorite piece?

　　Guojiahao: My favorite piece is "room is not building one day".

　　Host: So are you preparing that for the talent show?

　　Guojiahao: Yes.

　　Host: So you can have a chance to hear that.

　　Guojiahao: Thank you.

　　Host: We have more to compete in speeches. Do not go away.

　　Host: Welcome back to CCTV the 4th annual star of outlook English talent competition. And you are watching the children'semi- final.

　　And we know that lots of children start to learn English as early as possible. Miss. Feng, can you give some advice on how to help child to learn English?

　　Miss. Feng: You know, I am not an expert on this, but it is far my knowledge goes, I think there are a few ways to courage children to learn English as early as possible. First, you have expose child to very interesting and very entertaining learning environment.

　　Secondly, I think parents should not force their child to learning English, if there are no move to do so. Explained this is important, but you cannot explain very young children from the very beginning. Because that might destroyed their interest altogether. And they will hate English for rest of their lives.

　　And thirdly, I think people around me know probably better than I do so. You might ask them refer to them is for the best way to learn English.

　　Host: Let's continue the competition. Welcome back to live. Let's go on to contestant No.10. Before meeting her. Let's take a look at her resume.

　　FengYu: Hello, everyone.

　　Host: What is your topic for the speech?

　　FengYu: My topic is "my hometown".

　　Host: You can begin your story.

　　FengYu: When I was a child, I didn't have any idea of my hometown. I didn't know where it was or what it looked like. My grandpa told me that my hometown was in Nan Hai, Guangdong Province, since my ancestors were born there. However, my father also told me that Guangzhou was my hometown because he was born in Guangzhou and so was I. I have been wondering whom I should believe.

　　When I was 8 years old, as a member of the Guang Zhou Callan Glee Club, we traveled to five European countries on tour. At every performance, a ballad entitled "Morning Tea" always made an impression and excited the audiences. Cantonese people are fastidious about their food. For example, Cantonese Dim Sum stresses the combination of colour, fragrance and taste. Through this ballad, people got to know about a variety of local Guangzhou snack, such as Cha Shao Bao, Shao Mai, Shrimp Dumpling, etc. At the end of this ballad, we would give a comfortable belch, which made people smile and feel satisfied and relaxed. It seemed that they were drinking morning tea and tasting Dim Sum while they listen to the music. At that time, the press described us as angels who were spreading Guangzhou Culture. It was the first time that I realized I am a Cantonese.

　　When I was 10 years old, on behalf of Guangzhou teenagers, I went to Canada to take park in a summer camp, called the Children's International Summer Village, where 48 children from 12 countries lived together at a middle school for 1 month. There was a very fun activity in which children from each country would have their own national day when they would introduce their country. On Chinese Day, our team leader and we four Cantonese children racked our brains to cook one of Canton's snacks. Although none of us had any experience in doing it, the food we cooked was finished incredibly fast. We were surrounded with a trail of questions: "What is it?" "Is it magic?" "Could we have another taste?" We answered that it was Guangzhou-style noodles, one of the famous Cantonese snack, which represented Guangzhou culture.

　　Last summer, one of the CISV members, a 15-years-old Swedish girl came to China to visit my family and lived with us for half a month. I took her to visit my former kindergarten, my school, the Glee Club, the playground, the amusement park, and my relatives'and my friend's homes. We also went to Bai Yun Mountain with its amazing views, the Chen Clan Temple with its ancient sense of mystery, the Six-Banyan Temple with its long history, and the peaceful and lovely Dong Hu Park which can be seen from my bedroom window. The Guangzhou-style opera also made a deep impression on her. When she was leaving Guangzhou, she said to me with sincerity, "Emily, thanks for your hospitality. Guangzhou is a very beautiful city and I will never forget it. I can also feel that you love your hometown very much." At that moment, I was aware that Guangzhou is my hometown.

　　When I learned that I was coming here, I really wanted to talk about Guangzhou because I feel like I am Guangzhou's little mayor and that I should let everyone know about it and invite you all to visit.

　　I like the peaceful environment and the delicious food in Guangzhou. It is where I have lived for 12 years with my parents, my good friends, and my teachers who have supported me. I am a Cantonese who likes Guangzhou very much.

　　Now, I not only understand the meaning of hometown, but I also know for sure that Guangzhou is my hometown.

　　I love my hometown. I love Guangzhou.

　　Host: Let's welcome contestant No.11. JiaRuxin from HeBei.

　　JiaRuxin: Hello.

　　Host: How are you?

　　JiaRuxin: I am fine, thank you.

　　Host: You have prepared speech and what is your topic?

　　JiaRuxin: The topic of my speech is "My Sweet Home"

　　Hi, everyone, my name is Jia Ruxin. I am from Shijiazhuang and in Grade 5. Today my topic is " My Sweet Home".

　　There is an old saying "East and west, home is best." So, we can see how important home is to everybody. I've got a sweet home because it is cozy. My family lives in a flat. The sitting room is the biggest and my room is the smallest, but it is a world of my own. The wall is white, the curtain is pretty, the bed is comfortable and the bookshelf is filled with different kinds of books. In the right hand corner is the Zheng, a traditional Chinese musical instrument, and on the table is the computer. When I feel tired, I can play computer games; and when I feel depressed, playing the Zheng can cheer me up. This is my sweet home, where I can find peace and comfort.

　　I've got a sweet home because it is full of love. My dad loves me. He is kind and patient. It is my dad who watches Outlook English Magazine with me; it is also my dad who is ready to answer my questions. My mom loves me, too. She is considerate and hardworking. Every day when I go home from school, the rooms are always clean and tidy. Every time when I play out and forget dinnertime, it is also my mom who calls me back with her tender voice, "Come home, my little darling, dinner is ready".

　　This is my home, my sweet home.

　　Host: Thank you for introduction to your home.

　　Please enter your scores for contestant No.11.

　　我们来看一下11号选手的得分情况，去掉一个最高分46分，去掉一个最低分39分，11号选手贾如馨的得分是42.5分。

　　JiaRuxin: Thank you.

　　Host: Before meeting contestant No.12. Let's take a look at her resume. Let's give hand to contestant No.12. QuZhi from Beijing.

　　Host: Welcome here. What are you going to talk about today?

　　QuZhi: Today my topic is "this is me".

　　Host: It is very normal one. Now let's see how you make is it special.

　　QuZhi: Thank you.

　　Hello, everyone! My name is Kerry. My Chinese name is Qu Zhi. I am eleven years old .My birthday is October 31st, which is Halloween in America，when children dress up in costumes like animals, cartoon characters, and famous people. They wear masks and walk door-to-door asking for candy. They call this trick-or-treating in the United States. It is very exciting and fun for kids.

　　I do very well in school also. My favorite subjects are Chinese and Math. I always rank among the best students with my good grades. I am very good at making friends. I like people whether or not they are good students. Because of my classmates elected me as Class Monitor. I must try my best to perform very well and be a good role model for others.

　　When I'm with my family, my parents think I act quite differently than I do when I am at school. I am eleven and always have a lot of energy. Mom has to call me several times to come to dinner. If I don't like the food we are eating, I usually stare at the dishes with an angry face and won't even touch my chopsticks or my bowl. Sometimes I will just eat a little so my parents won't notice and then try to escape from the dinner table. Once, Mom asked me, being completely sincere: "Why do you become another person at home once you leave school? Your teachers speak so highly of you!" After she said that, I felt really uneasy. So I have decided to be a better daughter: one who loves to study and work, and to act the same at school as at home.

　　Host: She has given a very vivid description of herself

　　QuZhi: Than you.

　　Host: And we got two more contestants here, next one is contestant No.13. Let's know something from him. Let's welcome the gentleman from ShangHai.

　　PanYi: Hello, everyone and all of the judges. My name is PanYi, I am from shanghai. Hi, host and hostess, how are you today?

　　Host: Fine thanks. What is topic?

　　PanYi: Infarct I have no topic. It is only a speech. Can I start?

　　Host: Yes.

　　PanYi: When I was a little boy, I also believed in Santa Claus. I can remember the year when I was four years old. My parents told me: "Philip, Santa Claus will give you some nice presents on Christmas Eve. If you are a really good boy, he'll give you just what you want." "Really?" I said. "Will he give me a toy train?" My parents promised me.

　　You know, it was a long time for me to wait for Christmas. But finally, Christmas Eve came. I hung a stocking at the foot of my bed, and I could hardly go to sleep.

　　The next morning, I woke up very early. I eagerly looked into my stocking, but found nothing. Disappointed, I went into the sitting room. I was thrilled to see a big box under the Christmas tree. I tore off the ribbon and paper, and found the toy train I wanted so much!

　　Several years later, I learned that Santa Claus was not real, but I wasn't too disappointed. Because I also learned that it was actually my parents who gave me the toy train. Now, at Christmas time I always remember that Christmas when I was four. And I feel very happy, because I know that I'm a good boy and my parents love me very much.

　　Host: And next will be contestant No.14 before we meet her, let's have look at her personal information. Ok, ladies and gentlemen. Let's give a big hand to contestant No.14 GenYuemeng.

　　GengYuemeng: Hello.

　　Host: Welcome here. What is your topic?

　　GengYuemeng: My topic is "my cousin ".

　　Host: So, you will tell a story about him.

　　GengYuemeng: Yes.

　　Host: Let's hear it.

　　GengYuemeng: My little cousin Christelle, her Chinese name is Tian Tian. Last year, she came back from US for summer vacation. She was very proud of herself of traveling alone from San Francisco to Beijing. Christelle is such a pretty girl that everyone in the family loves her.

　　Although Christelle is only ten year old, her life is already full of unique and interesting stories. She was born in Paris, France. She moved to Montreal, Canada when she was three and a half. Then she moved to U.S.A three years ago.

　　Now Christelle is a Grade Five student in Silicon Valley, California. She doesn't have any homework during the weekends, spring breaks and summer vacations. But she loves to read on her own. She has finished already all of four Harry Potter books published so far.

　　When Christelle was in Paris and Montreal, her primary language was French. Now she can speak English very well but her French is getting more and more rusty. She doesn't know much about reading and writing in Chinese. One day she asked me: "Chinese one has one line, two has two lines, three has three lines, so the number four must have four lines? Right?" oh! Such a funny idea!

　　Christelle is always puzzled and amazed by the ways the family members call each other: "Why mother's brother is called Jiu Jiu, but father's brother is Shu Shu? Why mother's mother is called Lao Lao, but father's mother is Nai Nai? It's so hard to remember them all!" By the way, Christelle is my cousin on my mother's side. Her father is the oldest brother of my mother.

　　Christelle is so pretty and pure, I love her.

　　Thank you.

So, there are lots of new faces, and I do not know them. So, I think I was nervous. On the first class, the teacher told us, we can make friends with each other, and then you do not have to be worried or scare of this sense of situation. And I think you can get use to it. That was the teacher told us. And first day, I made lots of friends; I am quieting talkative. I like to talk to people, and I just said: hello; how are you; something like that.

I'd say to work a little hard to make that no mistake area. (Because you write down and break that). I think you are very close to make perfect English speaking, of course, it is necessary. So, I'd say to work little hard on that. You are doing good job. And I really appreciate your answer. Thank you very much.
