Seoul!!!More than 10 million people can't be wrong - Seoul has soul! Home of the 1988 Summer Olympics, Seoul has breathtaking mountains and hills. It is also a bustling city. Seoul was the capital of Korea for more than 600 years. When Korea split into North and South Korea, Seoul remained the capital of South Korea.

1.it's a little article I found in Time for Kids' website.It's a very short aricle talks about korea's capital seoul. It also has a little photo took in seoul atnight.And it tells that seoul was the place the held summer Olympics in 1988!!

2. useful words:1Olympics. 2bustling 3split 4 capital.

new words:not any!!

3. The reason I found this article it's beacuse I like Koren very much. It's not like I got a big chrush on Korea like many girls in Taiean love Japan. It's I think Korean are a very strong nationality. Even there are a lot people think korean got too strong personality that something it can be rude. But I consider it's a good point if you use dofferent to look it. Korean work very hard too get what they want, and they love their country very much!! I think nowadays, Taiwaness lack that kind of spirt.We relax too much. We don't work hard or put effort on the things we do or we love!! So I like Korean, we can learn things from their weak points or bad points!!

RomeWhen in Rome, do as the Romans: Surround yourself with art and history as you eat delicious pasta dishes. Between meals, visit the Vatican, the home of the Catholic Church and a separate country within the city of Rome. Gaze up into the floating dome at the Pantheon, which was built in 27 B.C. Then head over to the Colosseum, an amphitheater that dates back to A.D. 80 and has secret passageways that tourists now explore.

1.It's an article I found in Time for Kids website.It's an article that talks about the famous city in Italy "Rome", and why Rome is so famous and popular in sightseeing business. There are thousands of tourism go to Rome for the Catholic Church and delicious pasta .

3. The reason I found this article it's because I just went ti Rome last summer with my famous for summer vacation. So I found this article.After having my trip to Italy, say the truth, I don't really got to know the Rome. Because I went their during summer, so there are so many people everywhere. Wherever you go there are people everywhere. I can't hardly get to see Rome in a relaxing way. So even I spent 11 days in Italy, I still feel like I've never been there. It's such a pity~If I have a chance to go to Italy next time. I won't go in summer time.

What can one person do to help stop global warming? A lot! Our arbon footprint?is the carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere from our normal daily activities. Carbon dioxide contributes to global warming. Leaving the water running while you brush your teeth, having Mom or Dad drive you to school instead of walking and throwing out a paper cup after one use, are bad for the environment.
Here Are 10 Things You Can Do to Help Stop Global Warming:
1. Change a lightReplace a regular bulb with a more energy-efficient compact fluorescent bulb.

5. Use less hot waterIt takes a lot of energy to heat water. Install a low flowing shower head and wash a full load of clothes in cold or warm water.
6. Adjust your thermostatMoving your thermostat down 2 degrees in winter and up 2 degrees in summer can save a lot of energy. And ask your parents if your local utility company offers alternative power. If so, consider switching.
7. Plant a treeA single tree will absorb one ton of carbon dioxide over its lifetime.
8. Turn off electronic devicesSimply turning off your TV, DVD player, stereo, and unplugging your iPod and cell phone charger when not in use, will save you thousands of pounds of CO2 a year.
9. Spread the wordTalk to your friends, family and school teachers. Teach them what you've learned and make your house and school as green as possible. Think of ways to raise awareness & educate others, create fund-raisers in your local community to make a change.
