Week 2 First Journal 01/13/2011 English is a popular language; it not only was seemed as the first international language in the world, but also was taught in many countries’ school. Right now, depend on the TOEFL score; most of International students in OU are sent to OPIE to learn English. Although I am also in OPIE, I want to tell you that it is not difficult to learn English well when you find effective way to learn it. I have some good points to learn it. To begin with, as we know, English sentences are the words connected by grammar. So, at first we should start by accumulating vocabulary, books and movies are two best sources of vocabulary, because a single word is hard to remembered, but if we put it in a story or an actor’s lines, it becomes vivid and you will remember it at anytime. When useful vocabulary is became a part of your mind, it is time to understanding grammar. English classes in OPIE, such like our Grammar class, is the best chance to study and fix our grammar problems. Furthermore, all kinds of sentence structures were taught in grammar class or we could see it in the books. If we try our best to learn it never give up, and when the grammar was remembered in our mind, we could improve our English skill much more. I hope these tips will help you to learn English.

He told me there are only three members in his family: his parents and himself. So, he could gain the whole love from their parents; we could find it was right, because he hasn’t done any jobs. Because of Yao Ming plays very well in NBA, it has been making more and more Chinese become basketball fans, so he is. He has been studying at OU for three quarters; he would like to play NBA video games when he has free time. I believed watching NBA matches and play NBA video games might be the part of his life.

Thrid Journal 01/15/2011 For me, bungee jumping is a fantastic game that I had played, especially when I know the sad history about it. My first time to play this game was when I 16 years old and I had played it 5 times so far. When I first knew Bungee I do not like it because I think it’s too dangerous for me. However, after my favorite Hong Kong singer Edison Chen played this game in Macao on December 17, 2006, I started too interested in it. Because he jumped from 233 meters’ tower, and bread Guinness world record, I began to pay my attention on this game. I still remember that when I was 16 years old, my family and I travelled to Shi Du Town; and at that time I finished my first Bungee Jumping. That is a mountain has 55 meters, when I stood at the diving tower, I really scared. I only though that should I jump? Or should I wait until someone pushes me? Or should I wait someone tells me do not jump? Besides that, I also thought if the sting would fracture or not. At that time, I really thought much, suddenly a voice came out “if you are a man, just jumping, you could do it!” Then my brain blank, just follow the voice’s order, I jumped.

Week 3 First Journal 01/20/2011 On last weekend, I watched Chinese New Year’s Eve Live. One of the shows gives me a deep impression, which is “Lady Buddha with Thousand Hands”. When the dancers just show up, the audiences immediately clap their hands. The opening is so hot, and I can't wait to see their performance. By the way, the reason of audiences are so excited is that all of the dancers are deaf-mutes. And, I worried whether I could have the same wonderful language to describe their prefect shows. 21 deaf-mutes stand rows, suddenly stretch or shrink hands let me hard to follow their actions. Their beautiful dances like a peacock train let me lost myself. The magnificent scene is like "Big Bang", let me excited. Their neat action like computer synthesis, let me can't believe it’s true, what are fierce deaf-mute dancers, what a prefect show!

Second Journal <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">01/21/2011 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 200%;">In many countries it is very common for teenagers to take part-time jobs but they are still in high school, however in other societies it is not popular. In China, the students are expected to spend all of their time on their studies and consider schoolwork instead of their jobs. In my opinion, students should accumulate their working experience. I believe that it is a good idea for students to work while studying. I believe that a part-time job can help a student to develop a greater sense of responsibility. Because, by doing part-time jobs, they can earn money on their own so that they don’t need to ask their parents for money, and in this way, they reduce their parents’ load. When someone got a job that means he became the real adult, and the real adult will think for his family and friends.

My mother told me she helped my maternal uncle move the bricks at a construction site. She worked so hard that she got a chance to go to the big city with the boss. She was so glad that she forgot to tell her parents this news, so her parents heard the news from another person. However, no matter who told the news, they were so happy that their daughter could go to a big city. When my mother moved to the big city, she was attracted by the beauty of the city.

Many dancers and singers focus attention to their practice such like, their every action, coordinate, or intonation. At the scene, I can freely watch my interested players, dance and songs. Furthermore, I still can walk around and choose the best point of view. Another advantage is when the player is in front of me, they and I have a kind of communication, and I was cheering for their wonderful action, sighing for their little fault. At the end of rehearsal, all of players run the shows as the formally performance, they practice hard and all of visitors and teachers were clapping their hands through all time.

I had lived there about 15 years. However, right now I am studying in Ohio University. I find many differences when I compared my hometown and Ohio University. I have been OU about one year, and right now I am living along in True House. OU’s environment is much better than Jiangsu, because I could find there are many trees in the road, the sky is blue and when I was walking on the street, I could find many animals, such as squirrel, rabbit and so on. I can’t see these things in my hometown expect in zoos. OU is a really good place to study and to live; the people who live here are very friendly. Athens is a quiet place and the most important is there are many Chinese students and Chinese restaurants at here, it makes me not miss hometown so much.

When I felt depressed, I would like listen the Heavy Metal Music, because the singers use their voice to tell us do not need afraid the problems. At the party time or other happy time, people would like to play some Disco Music to improve the atmosphere. When I walked alone or felt bored, I would choose Light Music to let me feel happy or let time go faster.

However, according to every Danyang report, it has 800,000 inhabitants, and has 30,000 K-12 students every year.

In China people like to eat with chopsticks, the foods are put on the table and everybody shares. However, in America, people like to use a knife and fork to eat, and usually they do not share foods. It is really different from China. In my country, if someone invites you to have dinner in a restaurant it means you do not pay money; he or she will take the charge. On the other hand, in America, if someone invites you to have dinner in a restaurant, at most of the time, they may just order his or her own food, and only pay it that he or she ate.

He never put words in his mind, for example, if someone made him angry or he doesn’t like someone’s behavior, he would like to vent his angry or say something that the others don’t like. On other hand, rather say my grandfather is an irritable guy than says he is an upright old man. He likes do everything as he thought; if he believes the way that he does is right, he will just do it, no matter he is venting his anger or fighting with others. And I think it works, because right now, he doesn’t have any physically and psychology problems. Doctor of traditional Chinese medicine also suggests that everyone has flames of fury inside of people’s body, vent our angry is a good way to release them which could make our heart more comfortable and calm. So, we should better vent our anger out, not put it in our mind, or it will bring more and more problems.

Right now, most of teachers require us type our homework in the computer for check our homework more conveniences. Frankly speaking, I am not good at use computer; my typing speed is very slow. Otherwise, I need spend a lot of time to devise my ideas when I was writing. Because all of the schools which I had ever studied in are residential schools, I spend more time in the schools then in my home. It made me lacking society life experiences. At last, different writing topics have different specialized vocabularies. I don’t have enough words in my mind, so it would be the third reason to make me to be a poor writer.

The females prefer reddish colors because they believe red means healthy in faces and fresh in fruits. It is provided stronger and attestt for sex differences. However, In my opinion, I do not believe that, because i n China, many girls like to wear pink clothes, but boys also like it. For me, I have many pink T-shirts, and I like to wear them, I even have a pink camera. In Asia you could always find many boys who wear pink clothes. In many companies, the males’ work clothes are pink. I think this article was written in the 20th century, because in the 21st century, people do not care if males choose pink colors. Therefore, this article has caused me to rethink my idea if men can wear pink colored clothes.

But with time going, video games have become more and more important for us. I love playing video games, so I became a fan of video games. Since Apple Company product “Iphone” what is phone with the “PSP” function, we can play it everywhere, like at school, on the subway or in the park, Anyway, children play video game is not only a way for fun, but also help them to practice their brain and help them to develop the knowledge. Most people think playing video games are just for killing their free time. In fact, they cannot feel what they had learned, because they are just enjoying the games.

So after a simple calculate, the percentage of every young male student to be a basketball player in Danyang is 0.07. Although has the low odds, still have many students want to try. If a student picked by the key school, because of his basketball skill, the student do not need to take the entrance examination, do not need care his academic score, and even do not need to pay the fee.

From here, many people want to know why most Chinese are superstitious? In my opinions, first of all, to the superstitious most of Chinese rather believe it to be true than not. For example, most of Chinese do not like NO.4 inside their phone numbers or plates, because the pronunciation of 4 is simlar like "Death" in Chinese, which means it will bring unluck to them. Second, China has 5,000 years history, every of Chinese elders are superstitious, with time going, those behaviors of superstitions become our traditional culture.

<span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt;">Third Journal <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">The interpersonal relationship between Chinese and the American are really different. In China, “Relationship" comes first, it means, no matter what things you do, people would give his or her relatives and friends more benefit and let the thing go more smoothly and easily.
