 * I read [|www.weibo.com] whenever i am boring or get nothing to do.This website plays a perfect role in my daily life because it provide me with a convenient and colourful stage to share my well-being or even sadness.Most of my friends use it to chat with others and look for some latest news. Many famous singers and movie stars in hong kong are using this network to keep in touch with their fans in china.You can meet many interesting people with some tags,therefore,you can have a try!I would follow you.**

 * To be honest,I only understand maybe half of the whole story.In my opinion ,the murder is exactly the writer's wife.at the beginning,i did not understand why the author often talks about the color of the sky,i thought that was not crucial at all.But after I read page 215 i suddenly realized what was going on.As expected,all the exciting things would appear in the last part.i do not like the story,hah hah! actually,this is my first time to read such a long english story,so,it does take me long time. But there is still some sentences confused me. Page 215 the 11 paragraph Why does the author mention lucy's father?What is the aim of mentioning him?And why does lucy's father hire Gib Porter? Page 214 What is the meaning of "His massage is that he's not going to wait around he's gone home" ?And.....who..is..the..murder...?**

 * In my opinion ,those students who is over 15 should meet many different things and they should be engrafted something bad but true about the real world,for they have got enough knowledge to distinguish right and wrong.So teaching such murder story could broaden their scope which provide them with a totally new visual.These things would also happen in our real life,after reading this kind of story,we realize that we should notice the people around us even if they are the most close people to us.This happened in Twins,the wife killed her husband.all in all ,we need this kind of story in order to be more mature.**


 * As for me,what i learnt from imaginary story like Twins is that a person can not treat other people without any vigilance.That is true,you never know his purpose** **and why he does this.So the best way to protect ourselves is to notice.When in terms of the impact of our lives from imaginary stories,because such murder cases often happen ,we are required to know something about this.However,for some radicals,these stories would also lead them to crime.Additionally,this kind of story does improve my logic,it does!Last but not least,Twins taught me some writing skills,i knew the conventions of a murder mystery story ,such as foreshadowing, evidence witness and cliffhanger,etc.**

 * Because I do not know anything about making a film and I am a convergent girl,so I was chosen to be the newspaper writer of my group.Our group chose the idea from carl.That is,one day a paperclip becomes alive.In my opinion,a paperclip becoming alive is more funny and easier to be written.The genre of our story will be fantasy,and also,the subgenre will be human being.We decided to present the creative story.**


 * As a non-professional newspaper writer,I do know something about the conventions of newspaper writing.First and foremost,newspaper article could only be built up by facts.So it is significant for me to do a research or accumulate the evidence of the case before I write the article for the article must be correct and true.Secondly,"who what when where why"should be included in the first paragraph,but the explanations should be short and quick without a ton of detail. Last but not least,In the explain paragraphs of a newspaper article, the writer should go into more detail about the five W’s. If you have any quotes, you should include them as many as possible. In the explain paragraphs, you need to tell the story. Tell the readers the story in such a way that they feel like they are there when they are reading your article.**


 * My headline is "a fierce murder from paperclip".My sentence about 5W is "ten people were killed by a magical paperclip between hamilton and toronto on 7th highway in ontario last week"**

Here is a video which i love the most about news writing.you can click here to read the video part 1 ,then look for part 2-4 on right side of the website []

 * The website above called "E-how Money" is a video talks about newspaper writing from peggy charlton.Since I am the newspaper writer of our group,I am required to provide my group mates with a perfect article.The website is very useful for it tells me that what are the conventions of newspaper writing and what I have to pay attention to when i am writing the article.From the video in the website,I knew that I should gather the facts as more as possible and newspaper article can not include personal opinions at all.Although I am not an expert in this field,I would do my almost to finish my task with the help from the website above.**

 * I am the newspaper writer of my group.I appreciated that so much for it really improved my writing skill so the next time,I will choose the same job again.To begin with,I learnt many conventions of writing newspaper in English 3u class and from the handouts,I realized how the teachers grade our articles.The most crucial rule of writing newspaper article must be reflecting facts.But this is very difficult for me,because the articles i wrote before are look like stories but not newspaper.When I first handed in my work,Mr.K sent it back to me for it was too long and it did look like a story.this made me sad.But after that I thought I have got a totally new concept of the body paragraphs.Moreover,I found this time I wrote the article much faster than before,I do not know why.I like this job very much,because that seems nothing special could happen on a normal paperclip,so it needs divergent thinking,which is a big challenge for me.looking for some information about news about paperclips online,sharing my own ideas which just came out with my new roommates,we developed our relationship rapidly at the same time.Last but not least,I like working in a group.As a normal Chinese student,we almost never do such a group work,but we really need it!!**

 * part 1:**
 * The two root words of "infinitesimal" are "infinite" and "simal"."infinite" means something is endless.And "simal" sounds like"smile"and"small".So if the meaning of "simal" is"smile",then the meaning of "infinitesimal" is someone can not stop laughing at something,so it is an adjective.If the meaning of "simal" is "small" ,then the meaning of "infinitesimal" is something is very small ,extremely small.**
 * The suffix of "likeness" is "ness".There are some words with "ness" at the end such as happiness,sadness,illness,etc. Because these words are all noun.So i guess the meaning of "likeness" is appearance,hobby or preference.**
 * 1.I think void is a noun because it lies behind "a". 2.There are three sentences,their structure are similar because there are three prepositions in the middle of the whole sentence. From 1 and 2 above,I conclude that the two synonyms are "mystery" and "abyss".**
 * I know the word "fasten" .it means lock something and tie something up.And "un" means no ,and "ed" change a verb into a adjective.So "unfastened" means unlock.**


 * part 2：**
 * he standing on the grass，**
 * tries to marshal his** **unfastened thought**
 * staring out of the sky**
 * he wonders the void of love**
 * with the infinitesimal emotion of her，**
 * and her likeness in his brain，**
 * he is enamored.**

 * CH 1:To some extent,both** **Boo Radley in the novel "To kill A Mocking Bird" by Harper Lee and the man in Tom Wait's "//What's He Building Down There?// " show a very similar type of mystery.To be more specific, the two** **are mysterious guys whose lives are far away from the normal people.For example,Boo Radley‘s story attracts dill because his life is like a secret for it is known by only a few people.Similarily,the man in the video also lives by himself,nobody knows him,so it also remains a secret.Because of "The more you know,the more you do not know,the more you want to know,",then dill keep asking things about Boo Radley.**


 * I think the man in the video is building a tomb for himself,because there is nobody around him.**
 * I think boo radley looks like a normal person,nothing special,because the description in the novel is very scary,and the most terrible things i think is something that connect with our real life.**


 * CH 2:The worst thing I have ener done is that I didn't attend the P.E. class for the whole semester.I did not like sports at all at that time,so every time when my classmates went to the playground,I would go to the dancing room by myself and started to dance.At the very beginning,my P.E. teacher didn't notice that,but after two weeks,my friend told me that my P.E. call me to his office.I was very scared of him at first because I thought the teacher would criticize me so I did not told anything to him.And actually he did.But after I told him my reason,to my surprise,he said :"It seems that you really love dancing!so do what you want.".My parents also supported me to do so,and finally i joined the city dancers' group. I think I am very lucky to meet such a good teacher.But on the contrary,Miss Caroline** **in the novel "To Kill A Mocking Bird" did not trust her student scout.Maybe Miss Caroline has some bias about scout.**

 * To be honest,my real life is totally different from Burris Ewell's because of the family environment and the education system in my homeland.In china,a six-year-old student will not become a bad student like Burris,because the student s at that age in my homeland are under the control of their parents and teacher.For instance,my parent,who considered almost everything for me when I was a child,they pushed me to go to school everyday at that time even if I cry in class,nothing would change.I had to follow what my parents and my teachers had told.Burris's behavior made him seems like a illicit boy.Burris,who lives in a poor family,he can not get too much things such as money,education and respect.Without these significant factors,Burris can not distinguish what is correct and what is wrong.in my opinion,Burris did not do these things deliberately.Maybe he thought that it was very funny to mortificate his teacher,it was cool to absent in class.When I reckon this kinds of students,i was surprised that some of my classmates have the same demerit as well.**

 * I really hate my chinese teacher when I was in middle school.She always shows favoritism towards a girl.She made most of my classmates feel unfair not only in our study but also in our daily lives in school.What annoyed us was that she gave additional help to the girl. But after i graduated,i happened to know that the girl is my teacher's niece.So I think,if I were her,I would do the same thing as she did,because of course I want my niece to be better and better.so I do not hate her anymore after I knew that.**

 * In my opinion,money is the resource of all the things in the world.Pure evil example:dark power.**

＃12 In my opinion,children like Scout and Jem do not understand what the racism is because they are too young and do not know much about the world.Children like to be the same,so if they find something different from themselves,they will show their great curiosity about that.I think their evil come from the friends around them.Scout and Jem just want to follow their friends and play a trick on the black. I think I do not discriminate others and I am easy to get along with.I do not have racism.
