My mother was telling me about how she and her family got
their first television when she was a teenager. Of course it was
black and white. She said she only watch it at night. She doesn’t
remember over watching it in the morning or afternoon. When I
was young we had only about 3 or 4 different channels. My
bothers ,my sisters and I would sometimes fight about which
channel to watch .But we usually enjoyed the same shows.
Nowadays we can get hundreds of channels on TV.I can’t
believe it! There are channels with old movies, cooking ,fishing
and so on. It’s amazing! There is a channel for everything. I
wonder how much my bothers, my sisters and I would fight if we
had hundreds of channels when I was a child. Of course we had
only one television set.
These days I notice families with 2 or 3 or more television
sets in their homes. I guess it stops people from arguing over
which channel to choose from .

Expo 2010 is held in Shanghai from May 1to October
31.People all over the world are looking forward to it. Here are
several golden rules on how to best plan your trip.
Rule 1 : Do your homework
Read everything you can before going. Really study the
maps .Know the pavilions. Arrive at the entrance nearest to the things you want to see. Have a plan. It will make a big difference.
Rule 2 : Allow plenty of time
Expo 2010 is the largest attraction event in the history of the
world. It will take many days too see it. Plan to spend from five
to eight days of more seeing it.
Rule 3 : Pace yourself
Expo is enormous .The distances are punishing .It is better to
spend a day seeing a single area than to run back and forth all
over the site. Remember to wear the most comfortable shoes.
Never mind what they look like.
Rule 4 : Get going in May
At many Expos the crowds are smaller in May and in early
June than any other time. And beware the last two weeks. During
every Expo, people delay their visits and then in early October
they suddenly realize. “Expo will close soon! I haven’t seen it!”
As a result ,the last several weeks usually have the most crowed
days of the entire Expo.
Rule 5 : Find out what everyone else is doing –and do the
opposite
If you don’t like large crowds and long lines, do the
opposite. Here is an example: Most people go on Saturdays or
on holidays .So avoid Saturdays and holidays. Go on weekdays
when most people are at work.
Rule 6 : Turn up
Expo 2010 is the largest celebration in China’s history-am
amazing once –in-a-lifetime event. When it is gone and it will
never be seen again. So whatever you do, don’t miss it!

When we talk about stars ,especially women stars ,it seems
that they are always young, pretty and own charming body shapes. But recently a Britain’s Got Talent(英国达人)star Susan
Boyle has changed our views absolutely.
Simon Cowell ,one of the judges of the talent show spoke of
his shock over Ms Boyle’s voice. “This lady camp up ,and I’m
thinking, ‘This will take five seconds and I can go to have a cup
of tea’. That changed when she began to sing I Dreamed to
Dream from Les Miserables. She knew we were going to have that
reaction and just to see that look of satisfaction on her face
through –it was one of my favorite moments,” Cowell said.
The performance was posted on line and before long, the 47-year-old Scottish woman has been famous all over the world.
Speaking from her home in Scotland, Ms Boyle said that she
hasn’t thought of changing her appearance. She said that her
friend helped her with make-up. “I mean, that’s hardly a
makeover,” she added.
Ms Boyle also spoke of the reason she first began to explore
her vocal talents, “I was kind of slow at school, so getting like
singing was a good way of hiding behind that and thus it built
my confidence.”
