The weather in Carbondale
The weather changes very quickly in Carbondale. In the morning, we see there is enough sunshine and we are feeling good, but it maybe rain in the afternoon. For example, these days we feel very bad. At first, it rained heavily and then the weather became snowy. All the car froze and traffic was stopped. But now, we all stand in the sunshine and feeling good. I don't know what will happen next hour. But Carbondale is warm all year. Although it often rains and snows but it is warm because Carbondale is located in the South part of Illinois. Carbondale sometimes has a storm or tornado but it is not very big. So I think it is OK. I like Carbondale’s weather, because it is better than that of my hometown.

Teenagers in U.S or in China
China has more than 5,000 years of history. Also China has a long history of education. So Chinese teenagers’ education is mostly traditional and formal. Chinese teenagers should know politeness. And teenagers must go to school from 6AM to 9PM. It is not joking. They have lots of homework to do after school also. So they don’t have time to play or to create something they like. They cannot have extra time to do what they want to do. But teenagers are different in America. Their education is leading in the world. Parents give them enough freedom and teenagers can do everything they want to do. School needs them to be themselves. Also school gives them lots of time to do they like to do things. That is the big different between teenager in U.S. and in China

How to tell children about alcohol
If I have children, I want to tell how dinking alcohol is bad to my children. First, I want to tell them drinking alcohol can make big trouble, because alcohol can make us confused when we drink a lot. So we cannot remember something we did, and sometimes we cannot control our mind and do something ugly or worse. Second, drinking too much alcohol is not good for us. It makes us get heart disease and some other disease. It is too bad for our health. Last, I think I should tell my children that alcohol costs too much money and the smell is not good. Drinking alcohol can make us fail in our job, have a broken marriage and some other bad things.

TOEFL! Stressful!
When I took TOEFL test. I really feel stress. Part of listening is better. But Reading makes me sleepy and tired. I can't read clearly anymore. And I can't put my mind in a right way. Worth worth worth... And I can't think the article so I can't answer quickly. And before TOEFL test I feel worried. And I can’t sleep so I feel very sleepy on TOEFL test. I feel tired and I can’t answer question very clearly. Almost I can get 500. But if I feel stress I just got 450. And I got lower score I stay same level again and I feel more stressful. I can’t happy any more then I can’t study very well. And at last I will stay CESL a long long time. So I want to control my mind to think and answer the TOEFL and get higher score. Finish CESL class quickly and go to SIUC. That’s the better way I want to. So control our mind is very important. If we can’t control stress very well, maybe we will be crazy.

Alcohol improve my English
Drinking alcohol is good for me to improve my English. If I want to drink alcohol, I will go to bar. And all the waiters are Americans. So I buy alcohol with English. I drink and talk with Americans. That is great; also it is a bust way to study vocabulary that Americans often use in the life. In the other hand, drinking makes me brave and I can talk with American and fell happy. We discuss everything we want to know each other. And then my English just improve every time. Atlought that is a little bit increase, but I think if I drink a little and speak more, that will be better for my health and English. Yes, my opinion is drinking alcoho0l can improve my English and also let me make new American friends.

My favorite restaurant in Carbondale
My favorite restaurant in Carbondale is New Kahala. It is located on a main street (Illinois Ave.) and near the Old National Bank. It opens 6 days Monday to Saturday. That is a Chinese restaurant. I think it is the most delivers food in Carbondale and the waiters are nice. And my favourite food at New Kahala is crop pork over rice and Chinese eggplant with beef. That’s good; I like that. And they have many kinds of food. If you like sweet food, you can choose the House Chicken. And if you like very hot food, you can choose tofu of mushoo. All kinds of Chinese food you can choose in this restaurant. That will be very nice, I promies.

Writing F#2
21 years old. 21 years old… If we are 21 years old, we can drink beer. I think that is the most stressful aspect of American culture. I don’t think that is fine to us, because I think 18 years old is OK for drinking. And we have behavior to control our mind. I don’t understand why we must be 21 years old. And I eat pasta, and I feel very stressful. I don’t like eating pasta because I often eat pasta when my mother was angry. So I hate pasta. Well. I think I can keep myself relaxed and I have ways to relax. I love to play basketball, so if I feel stressful, I will play basketball as crazy as I can until I can’t move anymore. Then I feel very well and I can go to sleep and forget all the things. And I can do work or study with very energy and a better frame of mind. So that is the most important; I can relax myself and I can control my mind and keep stress away.

Fluency Ex#1
My future job is crimiinal psychologist, beccause I often watched some darma like CSI when I was young. That is my dream, and also it is my favorite job. I read a lot of newspapers and magazines that talked about criminal psychologists. I saw New York (U.S.A), Hong Kong (China) and Shanghai (China), those cities need people who study to be criminal psychologists. I can get a great job and I can get a pretty good salary. The job of criminal psychologist is very exciting and dangerous. If I save people from a crimimal thing. I will be happy. But also it is dangerous for me. Sometimes if I cannot stop the person who wants to kill people or do some bad thing, maybe I will lose my life. But I really want to be a criminal psychologist. That is my major and that is my dream.
