Dear Friend,
My name is Simon and I am a Grade 9 student. 1.I am crazy about football! I love watching football, reading about football, and of course, playing football. 2.我梦想成为一名足球运动员. However, my love of football has become a big problem.
I have many friends, and we always play football together at school or in the park after school. We like staying out late to play football. We often play for three hours or more and forget when to stop. Then I get into trouble at home 3.因为我爸妈不让我在下午6点后出去玩.I really do not understand why they are so strict. I feel stressed and angry . I believe it is important for us to spend some time on our hobbies. 4.They can help us relax and make our life more interesting . I wish I could have my parents’ support.
Is it bad to stay out late to play football? Should I spend less time on it? I really do not know what to do. 5.Could you please tell me how to keep a balance between my schoolwork and my hobbies? Thanks a lot.
Best wishes
We all know that foods will easily go bad if they get too warm. So we usually put them into our fridges to keep cool in hot weather. But can you make it without fridges?
In 1995, Abba, a teacher from Nigeria, found a cool way. His invention was called Pot-in-Pot Cooling System.
It uses two clay pots (陶罐). There is a smaller pot inside a larger one. The space between the two pots is filled with wet sand. Fruit, vegetables or drinks can be put into the smaller pot. A wet cloth covers the whole cooling system. Some foods can be kept fresh for several weeks in it.
Abba built five thousand pot-in-pot systems for the villagers in his hometown. Then people all over the country began using the invention. Soon it became popular with farmers in other African countries.
In 2000, Abba got a prize --- the Rolex Award. If you are trying to do something to improve human life, you may have the chance to get this prize.

England: Certain symbolic objects are mixed into the birthday cake as it’s being prepared. If your piece of cake has a coin in it, then you will be rich. Also, when it’s your birthday your friends give you the “bumps”. They lift you in the air by your hands and feet and raise you up and down to the floor, one for each year lived then another one for luck.
