Marriage
Marriages for anyone are a promise and forever. However, in my opinion, there are pros and cons.
On the plus side, first at all, Marriages are taking care of each other. If you are sick, you spouse will make you food to eat.
A second point is that you are not being alone. For example, if you had children you would not be alone when you are old.
Last, but not least, another pro, in marriage is that you must share money together in order that you could live comfortably. So, you will have a joint back account. In this way, the partners can have a better income.
On the minus side, marriages mean a responsibility to care for your spouse all your life. You have to look after you spouse who is sick. You may have money when you have a child.
Another point is that in a marriage will have no freedom. In other words, it means you can’t go out freely to chat with friends. You can’t spend lot of money on large purchasing items. Sometimes, you or your spouse is checking each other, so it is like a prison.
A final con and very important point is that you might hate each other. For example, your spouse doesn’t trust you when you slept in someone’s house.
After reviewing the pros and cons I believe marriage is good. I believe that pros of a joint income, caring for each other, and not being alone are worth being married.

A Racing Experience - anthony -
A Racing Experience
One day, I was thinking about the time when I was driving in Australia. I was not only a careless driver, but I was also a stupid person. Everyone, who included my friends, was saying that I must be a crazy driver. While I was driving my car, I might cause a lot of problems. I crashed my car on someone’s car accidentally. Later, I attempted not to turn on the front lights in my car when I was driving in the parking-lot at night; therefore, I ripped off my can bumper. Fortunately, there was no police around me. I then remembered one of my friends, whom was playing car games with me all the time, suggested we should have a real racing car on the street. However, I was a nude, as we started I lost him at the second corner. You may see me I was a person who was only well-spoken, thus I could not drive as a professional driver. Then he went home by himself happily and strangely. Even though I had not got any self –confident, I drove in the freeway. I traveled with three passengers, whom were from my Christian church in Australia. They were two girls and one boy. The two girls were sleeping in my back seats but the boy was begging me to driver fast with high speed, as high as I could. I constantly stepped my gas pedal harder so that I could speed up. This moment I was illegally driving which look as if I was drunk.
I was so lucky that I didn’t catch any penalty for speeding up to two hundred kilometers. I was extremely terrified and after that I won’t drive like that. Now I become calm and not to try this silly things again. As soon as, my dad knew I had a terrible experience, he might not give me to drive a car again.

presentation - Anthony -
Today, Waleed and I will be presenting the life of Miles Gilbert Horton, better known to the public as “Tim Horton”. Before doing our research Waleed and I only knew about the donuts, Tim Horton was a great hockey player before the donut chain.
Tim Horton was born in Cochrane, Ontario on January 12, 1930. He was named after his two grandparents but his mother preferred to call him “Tim”. He started playing hockey while researching a little found Tim Horton’s childhood. When he was young, the Toronto Maple Leaf scouted Tim and in 1947 he moved to Toronto to play junior hockey and go to school at St. Michael’s college. He was a star defenseman on the team and was chosen best defenseman in the Ontario Hockey Association in 1948 – 49. Tim was known as a strong player. After a few years, on March 26, 1950, Time played his first game for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Tim Horton was not a star on the Maple Leaf team, in 1951 to 52 season, Tim only played four games. The following year he became a full time member. Tim Horton got injured and broken his leg in a game against the New York Rangers, and Tim was checked by Bill Gadsby. This injury makes him missing almost a full season. There was doubt that he would play hockey anymore. He would have injuries throughout his career. However, he died return to play and the team did very well.
The team won 4 Stanley Cups during 1962, 63, 64 and 67. Horton was on the NHL fist team All Star 3 times (1964, 68, 69). He was also selected to the NHL Second Team 3 times (1954, 63, 67). He appeared in seven NHL All Star Games. Between Feb 11, 1961 to Feb 4, 1968 Tim appeared in 486 consecutive regular season games on NHL record until it was broken recently Karlis Skrastins on Feb 8, 2007. It is still a record for the Toronto Maple Leaps. During his time with the Maple Leafs, Tim started several businesses. During his time with the Toronto Maple Leaps the team did well.
While playing with the Maple Leafs, Tim Horton helped out many businesses. Tim and his brother opened a restaurant - The Big Seven in North Bay Toronto. In 1961, Tim and his partner opened a Tim Horton Motors in Toronto. He tried to open a burger restaurant in Scarbough, at the same time, Tim open his first donut shop in 1964 at Hamilton, Ontario. In 1965 Tim expanded his donut chain into a multi million franchise system.
Early morning Feb 21, 1974 Tim Horton was on his way to Buffalo at 4.30 a.m. He lost control of speeding up on the highway near St. Catharines, he and his car rolled several times. In fact he did not wear his seat belt. Tim was dead after he arrived at the local hospital. Tim’s report was written Tim had drunk lots of Vodka and taken painkillers the day before.
In our opinion, we totally admire Tim Horton. He did a great effort in his hockey life and succeeds in many best businesses, Tim’s donut shop. He had a 1 month surprising fast recovery in his injuries. He did not scare and went back to the Maple Leafs’ team. However the source did not mention why he had drunk and taken painkillers for. I believe Tim Horton is still the greatest hockey player and a well businessman.

My Favourite Video Game - Anthony -
My Favourite Video Game
My favourite video game is “Initial D”. It is my favourite game because it is a role playing game. I like driving cars and you are able to drift in the game.
I like driving cars because many of my friends drive and it affects me. For example, my friends have Toyota Camry, Mazda RX-7, Honda Jazz, and Mercedes Benz. It makes me feel excited because I can drive at high-speed in the game. I like it because the car goes up to 180km/h. It makes my heart beat fast!
I used to read the Initial D comic book so I was interested when the game Initial D was out. The main characters are Takumi, a young smart boy who is a high school student. He obtained his driver’s license when he was eighteen. However, his father let Takumi drive crazily in the Akina Mountain. When Takumi was twelve years old, his father told him to use his car to deliver tofu up to the mountain. He drove to the top of the mountain every morning at 4:45 am. Takumi didn’t like to drive but he must listen to what his father said. Bunta was the greatest professional driver thirty years ago. Takashi is also an outstanding young driver. Even though Takashi was a well-known driver, his brother only passed the standard driver. Later they all joined into a car team – “Project D”. I play the driver. It is hard to count because there are too many characters. In the game you are able to drift. I like this feature because in real life we could not drive the same way as in the game. You are able to drift in manual car. For example, you might turn in the corner with high speed so you must be fast when you finished each corner.
I really like game – “Initial D” because it is playing a role. I like driving the car because it can drift.
Australia versus Hong Kong
There are some reasons why I like living in Australia instead of Hong Kong. The main reasons why I prefer Australia are the open space, the lack of pollution and the nice weather.
I like the open space in my house in Australia, it cost the price as buying an apartment in Hong Kong. The houses in Australia are spread out; in Hong Kong there are more apartments because there is less space. Hong Kong has few trees and gardens, except for the richest people. Roads in Australia are wider and cleaner than in Hong Kong because Hong Kong is small and densely populated.
There is less pollution in Australia because there are less people than in Hong Kong. There are trash cans available in Hong Kong, but people there do not use them and instead litter. In Australia annually, people pick-up garbage on the ground for charity. In Australia they recycle to save their trees, I realize people should not litter.
Other than lack of pollution, Australia has nicer weather; it is not as humid as Hong Kong. Hong Kong is very humid and it causes us to sweat when it is summer. In Hong Kong we have to shower often because of the dampness, we sometimes shower three times a day. In Australia we do not have to shower as often. In Hong Kong, people do not spend much time outside and some get sick because it is too hot.
These are three reasons why I prefer to live in Australia. The main reasons are the open space, the lack of pollution and nice weather.
Journals
On Wednesday and Thursday, our Internet connection was congested. My aunt had to have a mechanic fix the internet connection, so the children and I could not play online games. We couldn’t use our Internet phone to speak relatives in Hong Kong. It is an international phone, but the cost is in Hong Kong dollars because it is used to phone to Hong Kong.
Wednesday night, I couldn’t play online game because the network was congested. The game is “Conquer Online”, and I played it for a year. In the game, I chose a role player and play it is a Taoist. There are other characters such as an archer, trojan, and warrior. I didn’t play afterwards; I went down to the basement and continued watching my DVD. It is a device to watch movie. The name of movie is called “A Beauty of New Paradise”. There have four main characters: Le, a guy from Hong Kong. His pre-wife, Ms Sum is also from Hong Kong. They have been together in seven years. Le wants to open a HK style restaurant in Shanghai. It is likely to Hong Kong style milk tea, breakfast, lunch and dinner, etc. Le lost his big money from the bank and He’ll be unable to open his business because he’s broke. He’s been here for a couple of days and he wasn’t very familiar to this strange place. His friend, Long, who had stolen his money. However Le forgave him. So Le must work in the top Shanghai construction company. Long’s girlfriend, Lam, who loves his friend, Le because Lam and Le live together in a coincident moment, then play together, work together in the same company, sleep at the same house, and then they became loving each other step by step and also chathrough the wall. The wall between them was very thin. It was a great TV-series.
On Friday, I decided to visit IMAX because my aunt always tells me to go out and to visit more places. I wasn’t getting used to going out, but now I ‘m trying to go out. My aunt persuaded me to go to play sport or do jogging and told me that it was good for my health because I’m getting fat. It was so hard to lose my fitness. After school I went to visit IMAX and followed our school recreational activity teacher, Hanna. I had waited for the students in the student Lounge Room at 2:00 pm. In IMAX, it wasn’t very big and has a spacious wider screen. It was three Dimension graphic, and its graphic was very interesting. Its came out fairy close to my eyes with my 3D glasses on. The name of movie is called “Deep Sea”. It has mentioned fish were rival and always looks at each other for hunting, but sometimes they are not killing each other and they was very friendly because some fish was helping each other to clean their body and they both worth and benefit. There was very small and tiny fish welcome the huge sea turtle by kissing their shells and bodies. It was very boring and also made me sleeping.
Bibliography: A Famous Person
Zhuge Laing (Kong Ming) (AD 181-334)
Zhuge Liang was one of the greatest and famous strategists in the three kingdoms era. Most modern Chinese Know who he is, even though he died when he was middle-aged.
Zhuge was his family name. He was born in Yangdn County, Langya Commandery and it was in an ancient time. This county is now called – Yishi County, Shandong Province. He had no parents because his died when he was nine and his father died when he was twelve. He also had two brothers. He wanted revenge against Cao Cao for damaging his village. He also wanted to teach the next generation his skills. His goal was to become a strategist and to help a good leader or king.
His other name was “The Sleeping Dragon”. Later, he joined the team of Liu Bei and led the team. However, when he joined the team no one listened to him because they thought he was too young. When Zhuge grew older he became the Premier of Shu. One day, he defeated Cao Cao by using the “Fire-chained strategy”. It nearly killed him, too. After this happen everyone listened to Zhuge.
People Thought Zhuge was cautious, well-spoken, brave and a clam person. He didn’t have any ambition and was helpfully to give out strategies. He never deceived anybody. He’s not only using his magic and he also used his ability to predict the wealther and to tell fortunes.
He died from exhaustion. Before he died, he invented two powerful items. One was “The wooden ox and floating horse”, which contained daily rice, water and grass. The other was a hot air balloon called the “Kong Ming Lantern”. Because his team of Shu was going to separate, he made himself tired. Luckily, he got a fellow student, Jaing Wei, who was able to help him and learned from Zhuge. Zhuge died from the war, which was fought the Northern Cao Cao.
He always used his trademark feather fan when he entered the battlefield. He wrote books called “Thirty six strategies of Zhuge Liang” and “Mastering the Art of War”.
This why he is famous and he is also my favourite character. I have watched a film about him several times.

Shaolin Soccer - Anthony -
I watched an animated movie. It was called “Shaolin Soccer”. The main character is Stephen Chow, who is a Chinese-Hollywood movie star. I like him because he has shot many funny movies, which are unforgettable. “Shaolin Soccer” refers to Shaolin Kung Fu combined with playing soccer. At the beginning of the movie, Stephen was watching a wide-screen TV at mall. An old man walked, passed him and heard Stephen say, “Ball did not kick like that.” When he was saying this, he tried to do a proper kick. The old man watched intently and grabbed Stephen’s leg and examined it. He told Stephen, “Your leg is very strange and no one has a leg like this and it might be the best one in the world,” Stephen had a business card and handed it to the old man politely. However, the old man put the card into his can of coke and threw it at Stephen. Before this can of coke reached the ground, Stephen suddenly thought back “the kick”. He kicked the can smoothly into the sky.
Both went away. Stephen walked home slowly and thoughtfully. A rubber removal man asked Stephen to help him to life an old refrigerator, but Stephen did not lift it. Instead, he kicked the fridge with his right foot easily. He was confused and thankful to him. Stephen is the fifth member in his Shaolin team. His master died and Stephen wanted Shaolin Kung Fu to become widespread. However, he did not succeed.
On the next day, Stephen met the first member of his team. He tried to tell him how to perform Kung Fu on anyone, but it did not work. This makes a bad thing happen. A group of gangsters were going to fight him. Stephen was so angry and from out of nowhere a soccer ball dropped in font of him. Stephen used his Kung Fu on the soccer ball first and then kicked it towards one of the gang’s members. In fact, he only used ten percent of his energy but the person he kicked was thrown like a plane and dropped painfully. This was the beginning of Shaolin Kung-FU.

My Japan - Anthony
The most enjoyable experience I ever had was when I was in the middle region of Japan. I went to Disneyland with my dad. Actually, he paid all the fees. We walked together and took a small boat ride. This ride was called “Encounter Venice” which is in Italy. The staff dressed as boat workers. They moved the boat by hand. The décor was the same as in Venice. It was visually appealing and I can still remember it. There were tons of visitors taking photos and chatting all around I was lost and it was nearly dark. My dad I followed a path to Aladdin to see a drama. It was large and it had a big stage. An enormous curtain was closed before the drama began. I sat quietly and looked much but this was a narrator. It was very touching was teased badly. After the drama, we took a roller coaster ride, it was so much fun. The train climbed up to the eightieth floor and shot down rapidly. I was very shocked and I could not eat anything except candies. When the night firework appeared, my attitude changed. This firework show is performed sometimes. Some other times, it does not happen. We were very lucky to see it. In the dark sky, we could see five, six, seven, eight… different coloured lights and finally planes were flying around and then dropped a cascade of water towards the ground. The water looked like a huge water fall.

Anthony => watches ad on TV <= Anthony
People watch advertisements on TV, magazines or on the news. Some advertisements provide positive messages to the audience. However, others offer rude and negative advertising. In my opinion, I think advertising influences people's behaviour in a negative way. I have two reasons.First, magazine advertising is very popular. It contains pictures and text. The words are often misleading and confusing, however. For example, the Nike advertisement's slogan is "Just Do it". What if a dying person was standing on the top of a building and saw the signs "Just Do it". If he followed Nike's advice, he would have jumped and died.
Another reason I believe advertising is detrimental is that advertising sometimes provides a bad example to the viewing audience. Take television advertising for instance. In one advertisement a seller promotes a shampoo product. To accomplish this, they employ a sexy naked woman taking off her clothing and standing on top of the car in a parking lot. She also takes a shower using the wipe on the ceiling. This inappropriate for children, so this advertising is blocked after three days.
To sum up, advertising is bad for people by illustrating an unclothed girl and including misleading statements that could prove dangerous. Personally, I think advertising does influence people’s actions. It is a con game.
