LIFE


It took me some time to look through all Life magazine images, most of them were quite impressive because i found they reflected many significant things or problems that happened in our life. I would like to show you this image on my page, because I was very impressed at the first sight I saw it. It was a sad picture actually. A little boy was walking towards with accompany of a soildier while we can only see his back. What's the worst thing, he was walking with a pair of crutch and obviously the crutches are so long compared with his short body. and look at his clothes, so poor, he even only wear one shoe! I felt so sorry to that boy. War sucks! why don't people like peace? Do you armies know how many innocent people are suffering because of war. It's not unusual to see a picture like this, but everytime I look at these pictures, I feel very bad.
Give our world a liitle peace!

Technology

undoubtfully, technology today is playing an significant role in our life. It is everywhere, from the pen we use to the car we drive; from the computer we work on to the rocket we launch. None of anthropic achievements could happen without technology. Living in this rapid changing information era, every individuals of us is directly or indirectly influced by technology. Take myself as an example. As a student, I have to use computer everyday, writing essays, typing articles, checking emails, or reading online news. These are the procedures that I almost have to do everyday. At home, I use microwave and other cooking equipments to make meals, and besides, I have a TV set to watch movies and TV shows. I also equipped my desk of my bedroom with a 60Watt reading lamp, which is used for reading books, and a laptop with two small speakers, which are mainly used for listening to music. They make my life easy and convenient. and I know it clearly that technology has made me so dependent on him. Without technology, my life must be incredibly terrible; Without technology, I can hardly imagine I will be able to survive.

Food

Food is a simple but vital word to human beings, nobody can survive without food. Since the ancient time, people have regarded food as the most important thing. while nowadays, as people's life's getting better, food has become one of a country's cultures and they are various from place to place.

China is a big country with long eating culture, and as a Chinese, i am proud to take about Chinese food. in China, we mainlt concern about three aspects of food- color, flavor, tasture. So at a family's table, usually you can see differnt colors of food with different tastes. Food like Green vegetables, Braised meats, boiled fish, grilled chicken wings,etc, they are all cooked in different ways. with different materials, we also have different cuisines. Take pork as an example, we make sliced pork, shredded pork, and of course, meatball, cutlet etc, depending on what other materials you cook with.

However, American foods are quite different -I've been in America for only a month, so i'm not quite familiar with American food- but as far as i see, American people don't have much cuisine, the foods in the supurmaket is so few and most of them are all packaged storing in cold place,I don't know it's fresh or not. Besides,we can see lots of fastfood and canned food, and deserts are so popular! Many people like to eat sweet food!

Maybe I am still not getting used to eat American food, but personally, I don't like American food! Especially I don't like pizza. It's just so not to my taste. Cheese, vegetable, flour...all mixed together, er... I love Chinese cuisine! I miss my mum's cooking at home so much now, she is really a excellent cooker, all my family admit that.
