Hello everyone, my name is Max and I live in Shanghai China. All myfriends say I am sporty because I play lots of sports. I play football, basketball and rugby among many others. Last year, I was on my School’s Under 9 football and rugby teams and we collected many medals and trophies. I think Iam going to rock this year because I was playing with many older kids last year but this year I am the older kid in the U9 teams.
I play piano as well and I passed ABRSM grade 5 piano exam last year. I am going to take grade5 music theory in October, and I am going to take grade 6 piano early next year. I play violin too and I will start taking private lessons this term.
My hobbies include playing a computer game called Moshi Monsters in which you adopt and take care of your own monster.
I like making friends and I have many friends at school. I have friends outside school as well. I made a friend last month while I was on vacation and we are still writing to each other and exchange pictures on email.
I love reading books but I just started focusing on my writing this summer. I hope I can make more friends in this writing club.

Topic 1: Make up your own fantasy story. (自编一个奇幻故事)
Reason for the topic:I like to write a fantasy story, because you can just use your imagination and do whatever you cannot do in the real world.
From Yangyang

What is a fantasy story?
Fantasy is fiction or a \"made up\" story that has non-realistic elements . Characters may have a magical or supernatural power that allows fantastic things to happen, such as witches, wizards, fairies, superheroes, mythical creatures and talking animals.
杨杨想请小朋友们尽情发挥想象力,任意编写一个奇幻故事,就像我们平时看的童话故事,神话故事,科幻故事,还有好多动画片。这些故事不是真实发生的,里面的人物可能会有魔法或超能力,比如仙女、魔法师、超级英雄、会说话的动物、小精灵等等。
请小朋友们在下周五8月23日前把你们的小故事贴上来和大家分享,有任何不太清楚的地方请提出来,谢谢大家。
I cannot wait to read your stories.
Being an astronaut is a really difficult job, you must go into the space and back to the earth. It’s a long journey.
Now, I am a good astronaut, so I’m going to tell you about my journey to Mars. Five, Four, Three, Two, One….Launch! Whoooooooosh! The rocket flew into the sky. After 15 minutes, I saw space. It was so amazing and the stars were shining and sparkling. When I looked at the earth from space, it was very blue as a big sapphire. It was shining too.
After three hours, my stomach rumbled. I squeezed the gloopy foods into my mouth. Yuck! The taste was bad but it’s fun, just like baby food.
We arrived the Mars, we then put on the spacesuit because there is no air in space and it is very cold unless the sun shines on you, but you will get burnt by the sun. That is why we need a spacesuit to protect us from cold and heat. Although it is so heavy, it looks cool. On Mars, I met some Martians. I took some Martian’s DNA back on earth to investigate their secrets. And we found something special on Mars. I found some new dinosaurs there. They are strong and friendly. They invited me to have a party. We sang and danced with Martians. The party was fun. The party was over and my trip was over too. Then we back to earth.
Exploring on Mars is a small step for me but a giant leap for mankind.
Something that I like or I can learn from
I really like the idea of a journey to the outerspace. My favourite part is having a party with dinosaurs and Martians.{:soso_e113:}
Something that I think can be improved or corrected
\"We arrivied the Mars \"-- We arrived at Mars or We landed on Mars.{:soso_e112:}
The flying frogs
One day in middle of night, the frogs fly out of the stream, the lake and the river. Frogs fly to the city, almost all the people was asleep, just two people were awake, one was ate bread, another was shit, they all surprised.
Then the frogs fly in to a farm, the farmer was amaze, because he never saw frogs was fly.
At last, all the frogs go back to the place where they lived.
Once there was a mighty king who was the conqueror of all the north, south, east and west of the land. He had a magnificent palace and lived a luxury life. One day the king’s brainy nobleman invented a time machine. The king was very excited and decided to see what would happen in the future.
He travelled to Year 2222 by walking into a portal. He was amazed by the modern city in front of him. He saw many skyscrapers rising high up to the sky. Robot workers were busy working. And people travelled by flying buses and hover boards in the sky. But there was one problem. He couldn’t see a single tree and the air smelt so badly. He could hardly breathe. People had to pay a lot of money for fresh air with more oxygen and less carbon dioxide. The king felt sorry for the people and wanted to help them. How lucky. He happened to have a pinecone seed in his pocket which he picked up when he had a walk in the forest. So he gave it to the mayor of the city and said “Please take care of the seed. It is your only chance for free fresh air.”
Then he time travelled back. He told all the people in his kingdom to take care of the environment and live a simple life starting from himself. So their beloved home can be a kingdom of garden instead of a badly smelt rubbish yard.
Once there was a baby tiger called Leo and he bumped his head on a tree while he was skateboarding so as he grew up he couldn’t roar.
When he was 10 years old he went to a tiger school to learn how to be a fierce tiger. In the first lesson, the teacher taught the tiger pupils to roar. Everyone could do it except Leo. At break time, all the other tigers laughed at him and that made Leo very sad.
That evening Leo was very tired, so he went to bed early. At mid-night, Leo was woken up by a powerful roar and through the window he saw a large and strong tiger training in the dark. Leo went into the forest and asked the large tiger whether he could train with him and the large tiger said yes. That night Leo learned many skills and tricks from the large tiger in hunting, attacking and fighting. Best of all, the large tiger gave Leo a roar potion that cured Leo’s inability to roar.
The next morning Leo was still in bed when the sun was very high up in the sky and he was woken up by laughter. When he opened his eyes, he saw other tigers laughing at him again. The unhappy Leo roared at them and that’s how Leo realized he could roar indeed.
From that day, Leo the tiger kept practicing very hard on the skills and tricks he learned that night. His confidence grew along with his strengths and capabilities. Some years later, Leo became one of the fiercest tigers on thetiger island.

I like your idea of the flying frogs. It made me laugh. There are some errors that I fixed for you in the following.
Some frogs lived in a small stream. They really wished that they could fly and see the wide world. A fairy heard their wish and made it come true.
One day in the middle of the night, the frogs flew out of the stream, over the lake and over the river. They flew to the city. Almost all the people were asleep, just two persons were awake. One was eating bread, the other was in the washroom. They were both surprised.
Then the frogs flew to a farm, the farmer was amazed because he never saw frogs fly.
At last, all the frogs flew back to the place where they lived and really enjoyed their flight.

其实从写作的角度来说,中英文的技巧和方法都是相似的,比如就像教作文的非常老师说的“六根六尘”法,这边英文写作,老师也是教five senses and feeling, 都是通过眼看、耳听、鼻嗅、口尝、感触、心想这些方面具体、生动地描述事物。还有文章结构要完整,详略得当等。区别只不过是你中文和英文的词汇是不是丰富,用法是不是地道。而这种积累,主要还是要通过阅读,来慢慢积累,用心体会,这个过程急不得,只能一步步踏实地走。
bob这次给大家的中文作文为:Make you summer vacation\\\\\\\'s story(写一个在暑假里的趣事)
