His parents made him practice violin for hours every day and he also learned Karate (空手道)! To make pocket money, Wang had to deliver (发送) newspapers.At five or six every morning, Wang was already up. Even on cold winter days, he rode his bike to deliver newspapers to every home!“When I went outside, other people were not up yet,” he said.The best moment of his day, he said, was after he got home, tired and hungry, and ate sweet pies his mum had made.6.

Wang can make a lot of money by delivering newspapers.D. Wang got up very early every day.COne of this summer’s hottest books is “That Guy Was Cool.” Sounds like a great book for kids, doesn’t it? But parents and teachers w ant to read this one, too. It can teach them something about the language of today’s kids.So lots of people, young and old, went to see the book’s author, 19-year-old Korean girl Guiyeoni, on Saturday. She was in Beijing to sign books for her fans.“Guiyeoni wrote a story that is near to us and goes to our hearts,” said a Junior 2 student in Beijing. “When I read it, I laughed and I cried.”Like the “Meteor Garden” TV series, “That Guy Was Cool” tells an unusual story of love between two students. The gir l is sweet, but she’s just average（一般的）. The boy is good-looking and has everything, but he is often unhappy because his father died when he was very young. They become close and help each other to be happy. In the end, they fall in love.“The girl in the book is like me. She’s simple and moody,” said Guiyeoni.Guiyeoni’s book doesn’t only use words. It also uses things like emotions. Emotions are small icons, like smiling faces, and they are used to show emotions.
