About five hundred years ago, an earthquake happened in a small village. Luckily for them, nothing was destroyed and no one was hurt. But a huge stone fell from a nearby mountain and stopped in the middle of the road.

When the earthquake stopped, many people came to the road and saw the stone. Some of the strongest men tried to lift the stone out of the road. But they couldn't move it. They tried to push it but failed. They tried to pull it with ropes but nothing worked.

"Well," they said sadly, "there's nothing we can do about it. We'll have to change the way."

At this time a boy about 12 years old said, "I think I can help you to move the stone away."

"You?" they shouted. "What are you talking about?" The men all laughed at the boy.

The next morning, some people came into the road. One of them shouted, "The stone is gone." More people ran out to see what had happened. It was true. The stone wasn't on the road any longer. It wasn't even near the road.

The boy walked over to where the stone had been and said, "I buried it."

The people looked rather surprised. "You see," he said, "I dug a deep hole next to the stone and I dug a small incline (斜坡) up to the stone and the stone rolled (滾) down into the hole itself. Then I covered it with earth."

The villagers shouted, "Clever boy! Clever boy!" And some of them said, "Why didn't we think out this good idea?"

International travelers, whether traveling for business or pleasure, will find themselves solo from time to time. Here are a few ways to meet new people and perhaps even get new travel chances.

Make yourself friendly

Show your photo album（影集）

Give some gifts

Exchange flats

If you and your new friends get along well, you can give them your information and plan to exchange flats for your next trip.

Are you “Weibo Addicts” ? You may spend too much time on Webo if you are a “Weibo Addict”.Do you write a Weibo ? If you don’t , you are “ out ”!

Weibo means microblog . People may spend much time writing a blog , but it takes a little time to write a microblog. Why ? Because every message on a microblog is less than 140 words .

It is easy and fast to send a message on a microblog . However, this can also bring some problems . For example, when the big earthquake and tsunami (海嘯) hit Japan in March, 2011, messages like “Salt can help people fight radiation (輻射)” were hot on microblogs. Then a crazy buying of salt followed. Later people knew it was just a rumor (謠言).

Computers are useful machines．They can help people a lot in their daily life．For example，they can help people to save much time to do much work，and they can help people to work out many problems easily．Our country asks everyone to learn to use computers before the twenty-first century，except the old people．

Today more and more families own computers．Parents buy computers for their children．They hope computers can help them improve their studies in school．Yet，many of their children use computers to play games，to watch videos or to chat．Computers can not help children to study but make them fall behind．So computers are locked in boxes by parents．

In some other countries，even some scientists also hate computers．They say computers let millions of people lose their jobs or bring them a lot of trouble．Will computers really bring trouble to people or can they bring people happiness? It will be decided by today’s students themselves!
