Baseball
By Max
Baseball is a good sport to play with a bat and a ball. Even it is not as widely popular as soccer, many Americans and some other countries still like to play it.
Baseball, which is introduced in the 19th century, only a few players can play at a time. But now since it was been known by many countries, they start to play it too. Now many teams play in their countries baseball league, but many people still don’t know how to play. After baseball became popular, they also introduced softball and amateur ball, which girls and kids and teenagers play, and let baseball more popular.
I hope that many more people can love baseball, and see the professional players hit the ball very hard, and we can cheer when getting a home run!

Math
By Max
After I see this article, I wonder why many people hates math the most. Solving math problems is very interesting, but why many people want to be as lazy to use calculators to solve problems?
Math is a good subject at school, but why many people hate it? I know their feelings, but math classes cannot be cancelled. Math can help you get smarter, and you can think logically when you answer math problems. But with the people who don’t learn math? They will get low scores, and without math they couldn’t go to a good school. So even if you hate math, you still must answer math questions, because without math, you can’t be a smart person when you get older!

The Korean War

Korean War
By Max
The Korean War happened at 1950 and many people died in the war. The North and South were fighting. Many countries help the South, and the Chinese helped the North. After this war, the north and south of Korea were separated. I hope that North and South Korea can help each other in peace. I hope that the people in the North and South will work together so there will be no war anymore for Korea.

Christmas
By Max
Christmas is a great holiday in the end of the year. At Christmas, people make pine trees with bright lights, and other decorations. Then they have a great feast with many good foods. At night, the hang their stockings and may sing a song. When they sleep, there is always a Santa Claus (who doesn’t really exist) to put presents in the stockings, and under the pine tree. At the next day, people were happy because they got their things that they want. So that’s why it is a great holiday. I wish to get presents at Christmas too!

Typhoon Morakot

Typhoon Morakot
By Max
Typhoon Morakot is a very strong typhoon, even after the typhoon leaves; many places still have serious disasters. This typhoon is the strongest typhoon for the past few years!
Typhoon Morakot caused a lot of floods, some are more than a story high; ruined many farms and ruined many crops and let many domestic animals die. At this typhoon, there are many bridges broken and damaged the highway and the south-bound railroad! It may take a few days to a few months to rebuild it. Many buildings were destroyed, there is even a hotel and a 3 story building fell in the rivers! Many homes had a power failure, but almost every home’s electric power is been fixed. Many mudslides happened and it let the water more dirty. Some places stopped water supply because the water is so dirty. At this typhoon, some places rained non-stop for three days and flooded. We lost about 9 thousand million in vegetables and fruits, and lost 1,500 million in fish. I think the typhoon is very horrible because it let many people die, hurt and missing.
Many people drove rubber boats, water motorcycles and armor cars to save people from floods. Also, they drove helicopters to save people stuck in high mountains. Our people who are saving people did it very well and saved many people. But some people died too.
Typhoon Morakot is the worst disaster in 50 years, and it caused many damage. God bless us don’t die, and don’t happen any disasters as worse as this.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid
Diary of a Wimpy Kid
Jeff Kinney
By Max
Not as other books, which they are boring and not funny, Diary of a Wimpy Kid is an interesting and funny novel and you can learn some words in the book. Many people like to read it, even those who don’t like to read this.
There are 5 books of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and now they published 3 books in Taiwan. There is also a Do-it yourself book that you can write your own diary.
At the first book of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, it is talking about Greg’s first year in middle school. In middle school, many funny things happened, At September, first it was the Cheese in the basketball field, and cause the Cheese Touch when someone touches it, and no one will even get near you. The only way to get rid of it is to pass it to someone else. Then, Greg said even he can play pranks at his friend Rowley, but he couldn’t play pranks with his younger brother. Because when he was little, he couldn’t say brother, so he started to call him “Bubby” (This is a very funny name for Greg!). He still called him that right now, and sometimes he almost let other people know he was Bubby! And one time when his brother Rodrick bought a heavy metal CD, Greg wants to sneak it out to school because his mom and dad don’t let him listen. But it was worthless when he took it to school to listen; Rowley didn’t put batteries in his CD player. Then that night, when Greg tried the CD when everyone was sleeping, he was been caught red-handed by Dad because he didn’t plug the headphones.
At October, Greg, Rowley and Mom went to Crossland High School’s haunted house. In the haunted house, first it was a cashier without a body, and many vampires and people with no heads made them afraid. But the worst part is Chainsaw Alley, which a person with a real chainsaw chases them and even tries to kill them! But the chainsaw affect was been stopped by Mom. After the Haunted House was over, Greg wanted to make a haunted house by himself. But Mom won’t let him make the haunted house in his house, so he called Rowley to make it at his house. When they put the posters, it was already 2:30 and the haunted house needed to be started at 3:00. So they cut some corners in the plan, and the admission price changed from 50 cents to two dollars. When the first kid called Shane tried out the haunted house, (continue......)

Century's Longest Solar Eclipse
Century's Longest Solar Eclipse
For almost seven minutes, parts of Earth were in the shadow of the moon
By Joyce C. Tang
http://www.timeforkids.com/TFK/kids/news/story/0,28277,1912174,00.html
As the sun rose over Asia on Wednesday morning, the sky turned from light to dark. It was the longest solar eclipse that will happen during this century. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon's path crosses directly in front of the sun. The glow of the sun's light creates a brilliant ring around the moon.
"The sky turned dark like in the dead of the night. The air turned cooler and cicadas stopped singing. Everything was so exciting and moving," said Seiichiro Fukumitsu, an official from Akuseki, a small island of Japan. The total eclipse was visible from India, China, Japan and other parts of Asia. At its longest, over the Pacific Ocean, the eclipse lasted 6 minutes and 39 seconds.
An Exciting Event or a Sign of Bad Luck?
While millions turned out to gaze at the eclipse, some made sure to stay indoors. To many Hindus in India and Buddhists in China, an eclipse can represent bad luck. But for the most part, people celebrated. In China, there were fireworks. In Japan, the eclipse was greeted with cheers and applause. Even the early morning clouds and rain couldn't keep viewers away.
Because looking directly at the sun can be dangerous, people use sunglasses, masks and other special devices to enjoy the eclipse.
Last century's longest eclipse lasted 6 minutes and 53 seconds and took place on July 11, 1991. A total solar eclipse is rare. The next one won't be seen until July 2010.
Max-I think the solar eclipse happening yesterday is a beautiful sight and lets many people excited. But I think that staring at eclipses will let your eyes blind because it is the same as staring at the sun. Some people say the eclipse is bad luck but many people still celebrated the eclipse. Although we don’t know if it is bad luck or good luck, we should be surprised to see the eclipse.
