My name is Chang Lu, and I spent a little boring weekend. When I woke up on Saturday, it was almost 2 P.M. I found that the day was almost over and I did nothing. I had a quick lunch and decided to go to the library. At 4p.m., I felt tired and took a nap at desk in the library. I always slept a lot on weekend. I hope that I can spend a useful weekend next week.
HW P7
I suffer from a sleeping disorder, and I understand people who also have a sleeping disorder. I will talk about why people may suffer from a disorder sleeping and how people deal with it. I would like to provide some experience about how to improve our sleeping conditions. For example, people can read books when you are in bed, take a hot shower before sleeping, or listen to some light music. For this article, my language should be formal and scientific; the tone of the article is objective and personal. Also, the vocabulary should be general science terms for general readers.
HW P12
Everyone has a way to express his anger. I saw some friends lose control and hit others when they are in angry. I think that is not good because it is illegal that hurt people, no matter for any reasons. For me, when I am angry, I prefer to sleep. I think sleeping is a health and quiet way to fix my bad emotion. For example, once my good friend did not trust me and I am sure I was right, then I was very angry and I went back to my dorm to sleep. I turned the light off, closed the door and shut the widow . I went to my soft bed and tried to sleep. There was no classes on that time, of course. At beginning with, it is a little hard to fall asleep because I was so angry and thought how stupid my friend was. Then I listened to some music and tried to think about nothing. After a while, I slept with music. When I woke up, I always feel better and forgot my anger. So I suggest that my way is very good and that there is no bad things will happen when you are in angry. Therefore, I smiled to my friend and just watch that man finish the payment. As a result, everyone will meet this thing. just let it go because it just a small thing.
Breakfast
My breakfast is always easy. Because I often get up at noon, I just go to have lunch when I wake up. I am lazy so I do not choose classes in morning. However, when I find that my OP classes are in the morning, I have to get up early and eat breakfast also. My breakfast is so easy because I do not have enough time to eat in the morning. Usually, i drink a bottle of water, and eat some cookies. These days, I drink honey because honey is sweet and healthy.
Weekend
Today is Friday, and i only have one class today. Unfurtunetly, my only one class begins at 8 A.M.. i had to get up so early that i always feel tired in the morning. after this class, i will spend a good weekend and i decided to keep sleeping when i go back to my dorm. this weekend i want to read my academic book and do much homework. also, i will go outside and to take a look at beautiful flowers. there are many colorful flowers on campus, and many cute animals around the campus.
P23
1 An anger outburst can more than double the risk of a heart attack in some people.
2 With violence, blood pressure moves up from 2 to 6 millimeters.
3 What's more, the does of violence triggers a higher blood pressure surge when a on-screen argument turns to an-swinging wrestle.
Weather
Today is a good day. when i went outside, i found that it is a little hot and it looks like ready to rain. many people said that the weather in Athens is changing. it means that maybe you see the weather is really good, but after a while, the weather becomes to bad. specially in the spring, the weather is changing a lot. Yesterday the weather was very good and sunny, many students hung out with friends in the sun shine. Also, i was reading out side at that time. We enjoyed the good day. Mike said there will be a raining tomorrow.
Art
when it comes to art, some people think that art is the thing which is beautiful. other people think that art should be the thing they consider outstanding. for me, i think art is a beautiful or an excellent design and thing. our lives cannot leave arts. before you move to a new house, you may make your house more beautiful. that is, you want to design your room, arrange the parts in your room, and to purchase many interesting things and put them on wherever you like. more importantly, sometimes you consider the color and styles to decide if these arts are suit for you.

Re: research of the superpower of america

In 2009, the latest annual " prosperity index" made a list that reported the U.S. declined from rank No.4 to No.9.
At the same time, many countries like China, India, Brazil and Russia had been growing faster and stronger, which would threaten the superpower of America.
there are three main signs:
Jobs. The International Monetary Fund predicts that the U.S. unemployment rate will be 9.3 percent for all of 2010. That's lower than in some European nations, but it's higher than in Canada and a lot worse than most countries in Scandinavia and Asia. For example, as the biggest developing country in the world, China holds the unemployment rate within 4.6 percent in 2010 (by CHINA ECONOMIC NET). Overall, the U.S. unemployment rate is about average for advanced economies and likely to stay that way. It could be worse, but middling job creation isn't a sign of global leadership.
Economic growth. The International Monetary Fund also predicts that the U.S. economy will grow 1.9 percent in 2010. It is better than the average for all advanced economies, but at least 10 developed nations will grow faster. Some American says that as the development with society, more and more people begin to focus on their life quality. They want to enjoy the beautiful places, relax with their families, and spend time to hang out with friends. Most of them do not like over time, although they can earn more money. It might be a reason that the economic growth in US is not so fast.
Poverty. The U.S. poverty rate, about 17 percent, is third worst among the advanced nations tracked by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. In that sample, only Turkey and Mexico are worse. Experts analyses that the high jobless rate and economic monopolize lead to more and more poor people.
So, these signs shows that the superpower of america is declining.
thunder and lighting
"HOOOOOONG!" a big thunder made me wake up. it is probably 5:20, when I woke up, I used to watch the clock. and i got off of my bed, and see what was the outside going on. then i saw that it is raining outside. sometimes a big lighting flashed, then a big sound came up. i was so scared and i turned the air condition off. after that, i found out my ear plug and put them on, because i can only sleep in a quiet condition.
HW p45
Jiao zi is a Chinese traditional food.
it has thousands years history.
process:
1 Place flour in bowl. Add salt and water slowly. Mix with fingers and knead to form a soft dough. Cover with damp cloth. Let stand for at least 15 minutes.
2 Mix meat, green onion, ginger, soy sauce, salt and sesame oil in a bowl and mix it thoroughly. Then add chopped cabbage. Sprinkle a little salt on it. Then squeeze the water out to make it dry.)Mix thoroughly to make filling.
3. Remove the dough to lightly floured board, knead again until very smooth. Divide the dough into 50 pieces. Flatten each piece with hand and roll it into a round thin pancake (about 2-1/2 inch diameter, the center should be thicker than edges.) Place one teaspoonful of filling in center, fold over, and pinch in center first. Then grasp edges between thumb and index finger to seal.
4. Boil about 10 cups of water in deep pan, after the water starts boiling, drop dumplings one by one into boiling water (no more than 20 dumplings at a time). Stir carefully with large spoon to prevent sticking to the bottom of pan. Cook until the water boils up again.
5. Add 2/3 cup of cold water into pan and let it come to boil again. Add another 2/3 cup cold water. When it boils again, the dumpling is done. Remove the dumplings with a large slotter spoon to plate. Serve hot.
6. In small bowls place soy sauce, vinegar, red pepper oil.
Use as a dipping sauce.
