     On 26th January, the biggest earthquake in India took the lives of 25,000 people. In the morning,
when everybody was enjoying holiday, earthquake began.  It was about 7. 5 0n the Ritcher scale.  
"There is nothing left between the sky and the earth any more. Everything has  been pulled clown," said
one of  the villagers alive. "There is no water, no food and no one has come to help."
     Nobody clied in Pakistan, a country next to India. The city of Lahore was lucky. In   Lahore
American school, where I was studying, all of the students were safe. They were on the field, so most
children didn"t feel anything. The earthquake was felt by the teachers that were on the second floor.
However, though Mrs Young was also on the second floor, she didn"t feel anything. She didn"t know
what happened until a teacher told her about it. Those teachers who were on the other floors had
different feelings. Mr Emond, the maths teacher from Australia, said that when the earthquake started
he thought there was something wrong with him, but then another teacher said that it was an earthquake.
After those words, Mr Emond felt better. Mrs Davis and Mr Frost didn"t feel anything either.
     My mother didn"t feel anything. She didn"t even know that it was an earthquake till she saw a
shaking (moving from side to side) light.  My dad saw the computer shaking and then he looked out
of  the window and saw many people going out.

Dear Rolf,
     The movie Slumdog. Millionaire seems to suggest that the child beggars (乞丐) of India are organized
by others and I"ve heard about this in other countries as well. As a traveler, what should l do when a kid
asks me for money?                                                                              
                                                                                                                                           Randy
Dear Randy,
     I think you"d better not give money to child beggars.
     Child beggars are often controlled by some organizations. These poor children might be tools for
making money, but they"re still children,no matter what they have been forced to do. Even if the kid isn"t
the tool of some organizations, he or she is probably doing the same work for some adults-maybe some
family members who don"t care the child. Sadiy, children are exploited (利用) as beggars for simple
reasons which could be called"marketing": After all, kids have more earning potential (潜力) than adults.
It"s nice to sit down and chat with them for a while, even buy them a drink or a snack or play games with
them. They"re often very interesting people that have a story to tell if you can get them to open up.
     Beggarsa of all ages are common sight for travelers and in general, it"s best to spend some time on a
given community before you give out your money.
     At last, don"t be afraid to say no. This isn"t. always easy, but child beggars know that what they"re
doing can"t improve their lives, but only enrich those people who force them to beg.

at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself  up and down, to see if  there is     4     wrong with
you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel     5    towards the person who is looking at you that way. Eyes
do speak, right?
     Looking too long at someone may seem to be impolite. But sometimes things are different.  If a

     What do you do to relax? Do you watch TV? Do you read a book? Or do you listen to music?
How many of us actually play a musical instrument? How many of us go to concerts? How important is
music in our lives? What kind of music do we like?
     The survey above shows the musical habits of a few of our readers. Interestingly, fourteen people
out of the twenty questioned actually play a musical instrument, while only six people don"t. Out of these,
ten people practice their musical instrument between 0-3 hours a week and the other four between three
and six hours a week.
     The best instrument to play is the guitar; eight people say it is their favourite instrument to play.
Another four people like playing the piano and two like playing the violin. Two people, however, don"t
like playing the violin or the piano as they think they are too difficult. 
     Pop concerts are always popular but, in this survey only eight people say they like going to concerts,
six to pop concerts and two to jazz concerts. 
     A higher number, eighteen, say they like listening to music as they find it relaxing. Only two people
don"t like listening to music at all. These results seem to suggest that we are more actively musical than
we think ...
1. How many of the twenty people don"t play a musical instrument?
2. How many of the fourteen people like playing the guitar?
3. Why don"t the two people like playing the violin or the piano?
4. Do most people like listening to music?
