fun to travel and enjoy so many wonderful sightseeings in different places During their vacation, most people would choose to travel to enjoy a period of leisure time so that they can refocuse on their studies and businesses

In the secong place, participating in varied outdoor activities can help us increase knowledge through our own experience and widen our horizon As a famouse Chinese saying goes: to become wiser, you need to not only read 10 thousand books but also travel 10 thousand miles It is true when we go out we have the chance to meet different people and different things, which cannot happen if you stay indoors We chat with people and exchange ideas, we visit many places and learn different cultures, all of which can let us know more about a true world

In conclusion, I personally prefer ourdoor activities to indoor ones not only because I can enjoy the relaxation and refreshment in the nature but also through participating in varied out activities,

I gain valuable opportunities to convert theoretical knowledge from books into a kind of real

experience

A gift of money is generous and welcomed at our school There are many things that my school could use To decide, one must consider the amount of the gift and understand that it is a one-time thing Keeping this in mind, I think that my school could most benefit from new classroom

fixtures

If you looked at our school, you mould agree that nearly all of the classrooms could use new

desks, chairs, chalkboards, bookshelves and cabinets Our school is old and the people who live here aren't very wealthy New equipment would provide students with the tools that they need to learn It is hard to write papers if there aren't enough desks and chairs It is hard to learn when the blackboards are so old that they can't be erased properly It is also difficult to organize school supplies without proper bookshelves and cabinets

Another plus that new equipment would provide is that it would make the school more attractive

to the community It is hard for a community to be proud of a school that is falling apart If the community felt that our school was important, perhaps others would give more money in the

future That would allow us to further improve our school In addition, maybe community

members would feel encouraged to come and help out in the school That would make it even better

Students would be happier with new equipment It would make them want to come to school and learn There would be fewer dropouts By continuing in their education, these students will be able to better contribute to our community in the future-perhaps even becoming future

schoolteachers

While there are many things that can be purchased with a gift of money at our school, I believe that new equipment is the best choice New equipment would improve the learning environment, the community's attitude, and the students' feelings about their school

Almost everyone, from little children to adults, loves games The types of games may change and

get more complex as we grow up, but our enjoyment never changes Playing games is both fun and useful, because games teach us the skills we need in life

First of all, playing games teaches us that everything we do causes something else to happen If

we hit a ball, it will land somewhere or someone will try to catch it If we make certain

combinations with cards, we'll earn points So when we play a game, we learn there is always a cause/effect relationship We learn to pay attention to what's happening around us and see how people react to what we do

Playing games also teaches us how to deal with other people We learn about teamwork, if the game has teams We learn how to assign tasks according to each person's skills We learn how to get people to do what we want, and we learn that sometimes we have to do what other people want

Game playing teaches us how to follow rules to achieve something In a game, the rules have been worked out in advance and make the game go more smoothly We find out that if we want to reach a goal, we need to know the rules We learn how to go step by step towards a desired end

We also learn how to make adjustments when things change We learn how to devise a plan for reaching our goal We learn strategy

Most people understand that "all work and no play" is bad for you Learning all these things

would be much slower if we didn't play games Life would be much duller, too

Nowadays, some people hold the opinion that games teach peoples about life, but others have a negative attitude And they think that only children play game, so game is only for amusement, and is nothing with the true life As far as I am concerned, I agree the first statement There are numerous reasons why I hold on, and I would explore only a few primary ones here

The main reason for my propensity is I believe that the procedure of playing teach people the rulers of games similar to that of society We can discover when children play games, they often imitate to do the things that occur in the socirty of adult For examples,boys and girls like to act as father and mother of family, doctors and patients, teachers and students These kind of games will make children begin to study to how to deal with things and how to get alone with other persons And there are the other kind of games such as chess which can devolope their intelligence Like the lesson in the school, these games teach them the other kind of rulers, the method of study knowledge

Another reason can seen by every persons is that like life itself, game is full of intense and

attracted competition Everyone can experience the joy of win and the pain of lost from game In the form of playing game,people would realize what is the competition, how to take on the stress and how resolve problems And those are very helpful for them in the future work and live In addition, game tell us that only making great efforts, one can get the desired result There is an old saying, no pains, no gains No matter the game is simiple or complex, if you want to win, firstly, you should treat it seriously, and then cast about various meanings to resolve the problem In this way, you can learn how to deal with things and how to cope with difficulties in the society

General speaking, game tell us the principle and truth of life, and people can learn from game how

to deal with problem, how to take on the duty and experience the life in the society Taking into account of all these, we may reach the conclusion that, games teach peoples about life, and people

can learn many knowledge from that

Playing games has always been thought to be important to the development of well-balanced and creative children; however, what part, if any, they should play in the lives of adults has never been researched that deeply I believe that playing games is every bit as important for adults as for children Not only is taking time out to play games with our children and other adults valuable to building interpersonal relationships but is also a wonderful way to release built up tension

There's nothing my husband enjoys more after a hard day of work than to come home and play a game of Chess with someone This enables him to unwind from the day's activities and to discuss the highs and lows of the day in a non-threatening, kick back environment One of my most

memorable wedding gifts, a Backgammon set, was received by a close friend I asked him why in the world he had given us such a gift He replied that he felt that an important aspect of marriage was for a couple to never quit playing games together Over the years, as I have come to purchase and play, with other couples & coworkers, many games like: Monopoly, Chutes & Ladders,

Mastermind, Dweebs, Geeks, & Weirdos, etc I can reflect on the integral part they have played

in our weekends and our "shut-off the T.V and do something more stimulating" weeks They have enriched my life and made it more interesting Sadly, many adults forget that games even exist and have put them away in the cupboards, forgotten until the grandchildren come over

All too often, adults get so caught up in working to pay the bills and keeping up with the

"Joneses'" that they neglect to harness the fun in life; the fun that can be the reward of enjoying a relaxing game with another person It has been said that "man is that he might have joy" but all too often we skate through life without much of it Playing games allows us to: relax, learn

something new and stimulating, interact with people on a different more comfortable level, and to enjoy non-threatening competition For these reasons, adults should place a higher priority on playing games in their lives

Having some free land has always been a deep wish of mine When I was a child my family and I often went to the country on weekends, because one of Dad's brothers owned a piece of land non too far from the city where we lived

I enjoyed myself riding horses, playing with cats and dogs, picking up eggs from hens, looking at rabbits, watching birds, "driving" tractors and so on Since then, I have been dreaming to have some free land of my own property, in order to do what I most like without annoying any

neighbours

First of all I would fill it with trees, flowers and grass, because I love to stay outside and have walks under the trees' shadow

Secondly, I would buy some German Sheepdogs Actually I'm very fond of this race of dogs and I wish to grow up some exemplars and win premiums at dog competitions Dogs are the real passion

of my life I love to stay with dogs and speak to them and teach them some basic things

Finally, in order to stay there always, I would build a small country house, made of stone and

wood but with all comforts and a swimming pool to bathe in when it's very hot

Probably it's a dream, but don't say it's impossible to accomplish In fact, I would only need to work in some place neither too near, not too far from the country There I could find some free land and do what I've just said So I would realize the child's atmosphere that I can only remember now and that is so distensive when just thinking of it

What should I do if some day I had some land of myself? I take it as a serious question although if

it is just a hypothesis While, definitely, I will facilitate it to built up a public school! The reason is that education is so important to both this society and individuals It is my dream to develop a school for the children who have been bereft the opportunity of acceptance education

Firstly, widely well-educated population can benefit the society they are in from enjoying an

orderly circumstance It is a common sense that intellectuals are more conformable than the

others Bandits or brigands are usually composed of those uncivilized people With their

knowledge, people are much more positively to comply with their national laws Caution are also

be taken by those knowledgeable people to stay away from criminal

Secondly, our society needs to be constructed by their civilian with their technique or skills much more than just their nature strength It is the advantaged technology that makes a nation standing

in the firs t line among the world

Thirdly, individual in this earth should be equal with all rights including being educated What tragedy it is that so many kids abandoned or are abandoning their study for their poverty So many films about these poor children always made me in tears! I swear if only I have the power I will do

my best to help them other than just donate those little faint money!

If I have some land, I will open a school, definitely!

If I have received some land to use as I wish, I would use this land to build a library I like to use the following reasons to explain my choice

The first and most important reason is that library can bring plenty of knowledge to people I remember the famous words that knowledge is power Apparently, a library is the ideal place for people to attain knowledge In a library, we can get all kinds of valuable information that we need, such as knowledge of geography, history, music and politic, and so on We can imagine that it is

so comfortable and enjoyable when we sit in a quiet library and immerse in the world of

knowledge that we cherish

Another equally important reason is that people can spend their spare time in a more meaningful way in a library Now the life pace is faster and faster, so people, especially young people, like to

go to see a movie, or a disco party In comparison with those places, I think that library can

provide a quiet and comfortable atmosphere for people who want to reduce the pressure of life Moving on to wider themes, a library is a good and safe place for children Parents would rather

let their children go to the library frequently than see their child spend lots of time in playing the game or watching television After all, a good book can provide children with enormous help in their future life

From what has been discussed above, I may safely draw the conclusion that using this land to build the library for people will be my first choice

The world is becoming increasingly smaller and smaller The world’s population is now at six billion The world cities are getting larger and larger At least two cities, Mexico City and Sao Paulo have almost 30 million inhabitants In this context, one could say that a gift of land is the greatest gift of all Land is perhaps the most permanent thing in the world Unlike diamonds,

which really have little value in and of themselves, land actually has great value Unlike

televisions and cars, land cannot be destroyed—if you remove land, there is still more land under

it In this context, I will discuss what I would do were I given some land as a gift It will be

necessary, however, to discuss four things first: First, it is necessary to establish the size of the land Second, we need to know where the land is Third, the topography of the land is important Finally, the weather in the location is fundamental

For the purposes of this essay, I will assume that I have received a rather large parcel of land (it is

a gift, right?!) in a temperate climate with four seasons I will assume that the land is fairly flat Most importantly, I will assume that this land is mine and that I have control over the land, i.e., that no other government controls the land

Having grown up in a rather poor family, I think I would be quite excited about receiving some land I have never owned anything of any great value and to own some land would be a wonderful thing for me For a long time, it has been a dream of mine to be able to build a beautiful house for

my mother My mother is still living in poverty and it saddens me to think of her living in that situation She often does not have enough money to use the heat in the wintertime and cannot afford to buy new clothes I would love to be able to give her the gift of a house and a happy place to live for the rest of her life Since we lived in a country with very cold winters, my family often felt very cold I would love to bring my mother to a warm place to spend the rest of her days

However, I would not devote all of the land to houses for my family I would use most of the land

to develop a business In my case, doing this would be very important since I grew up poor I would need to ensure that I would have a source of income and a way to sustain the activities on the land An efficient way to do this would be to develop the land in some way suitable to the land In this case, I would use the land to develop a language and confidence training camp It has long been my dream to build a perfect language learning center - a place where people could go to learn a language, to immerse themselves in the language, to meet other people and to have fun while doing so In conclusion, I would like to make one more point I must admit that I feel

somewhat guilty about the idea of accepting such a gift of land There is a part of me that is

somewhat idealistic and would like to think that the world is a beautiful place and that all humans should live together peacefully From this viewpoint, I would say that no one can own land As an American Indian once said, "Own the land? You might as well own the air or the sky!" However, this idea is inconsistent with the world today Being more realistic, I would do what I detailed above

Land is a valuable resource, and it is important to use it effectively I think it would be most

effective to create something that all people can enjoy I therefore propose to use the land to build

a campground At the present time, there is little low-cost recreation in the area where I live Building a campground would change that Ultimately a campground would make a more

enjoyable environment for everyone

Local entertainment is simply too expensive A nice evening out can cost as much as one hundred dollars Even movies and other less expensive types of entertainment are no longer cheap

Further, there are no real recreational facilities nearby There are no parks within 30 miles There are very few basketball courts, and most of those are in poor condition

Building a campground could change all that Staying overnight at a campground is very

inexpensive It can cost as little as thirty dollars Further, there would be a sports area and picnic tables for use by campers and also those who do not wish to stay overnight A campground would provide a lot of activities for very little money That would definitely improve this area

The result of building a campground will be that many more people will be able to afford an

enjoyable evening out A campground also promotes healthy living People can get out and

breathe fresh air They can walk and hike and play basketball or other sports That is certainly better than spending an evening sitting down, eating buttery popcorn in a movie theatre

A campground will make the area beautiful as well as functional We have many wonderful

natural resources, but we need to cultivate them In addition to all the other good things it can bring, building a campground will help us do just that

Television has increased the speed at which news travels and it can bring situations and images into our homes that previous generations would not have had the opportunity or regret to witness

Television is commonly criticized as being bad for children that an important fact sometimes gets overlooked In my personal opinion some types of television viewing may actually enhance

children's intellectual development

Television contains an enormous variety of forms and content The effects of television viewing depend on program content and genre According to a research, young children who spent a few hours a week watching educational programs such as Sesame Street, Mister Rogers'

Neighborhood, Reading Rainbow, Captain Kangaroo, Mr Wizard's World and 3-2-1 Contact had higher academic test scores 3 years later than those who didn't watch educational programs On the other hand, children who watched many hours of entertainment programs and cartoons had lower test scores than those who watched fewer hours of such programs.Good educational

programs can provide lasting benefits to children

Children are most likely to become actively engaged with television content that is neither too easy nor too difficult to comprehend, that is, content that provides some challenges, but also

allows a child to gain a sense of mastery Just like our muscles, the brain gets stronger when it is used, and atrophies when it isn't used It seems that lack of use also leaves it vulnerable to

degeneration later in life
