When I was a little girl I was always wanted to have a tree.I didn't remember when I've got this strange idea. As most of my girlfriends would ask for a doll or a beautiful dress as a birthday present,I would never did that and I would never ask my dad for a single prsent.Because I was all the confidence that he would never be able to give what I really want——a tree.It's not an ordinary tree.It's such kind of tree as being described in Janpan's animation.It shall grow to its full length with roots extending and holding fast to the core of the Earth.Its trunk is as hard and sturdy as rocks and no one is able to or dare to cut it down with negligible droning elec-saws.Its leaves shall be large enough to cover me from atrocious vengeance of the lion living on it.Standing on the top branch I would touch the sky and pick up those candy-floss-like clouds at will making them my cozy quilts.I would be the only man on it with animals,worms and plants my company,maybe some guarding fairies as well.When I got hungry,I could eat those dewy wild fruits.When I met with those lions and tigers and wolves,I could either flit from one branch to another like Tarzan or be a tamer and make them my friends.At that time I thought all I need to live happily in this earth is a tree.I thought it was Heaven in Earth.
Problems occured one after another as I became mature and recieved some education.No plant has been found able to grow that strong and significant.Even if THERE IS such a tree,will I be the only man on it while every one will make their way to have a sharing?Even if I was the only one on it will I get weary or feel lonely?What if I get lost one day?
As time sliped away from my hand,my fancy dream glided away from my mind.But the tree did take roots and grow exuberantly.Dad buried the seed deeply when he rode on that old bike taking me to pre-school and primary school for 8 years.The tree did grow strong as mom refused to reach out her hand when I fell down on the ground."Pluck up your courage and be a brave girl!" And I did have those large leaves as I was bitten by a horrendous dog and it became part of me and I was part of it when my best friend made her own leg the lure.After exchaging some wrestling holds with the dog in an unseen corner,she made her mischievous return,grin in face and scratch in arms.
I've already got that tree,even more significant than I expected.
I would rather have a shade of coolness under it,a dew drippling from it,a tiny luscious fruit from it,than eternity without it.

Olympic and I
-----The magic rings
Hello everyone! I am a little witch and I have a magic ring. When you look into the ring, you can see someone and hear the voice of his or her heart. You don' t believe? Let me show you.
Look …
Betty Blue from Athens. Let's listen to her.
"At the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, I won the silver medal in the women's two-hundred-meter swimming race. I'm disappointed in the result, but will continue in the next 3 years to improve my times. The Olympics are like a big pool, and I'm just like a little blue fish that wants to swim faster in the pool."
The magic ring flies to Africa.
This is Bill Black from Cape Town. Can you hear what he is saying?
"It is evening now, but I'm still training to throw the hammer . Sweat pours down my face, but I never feel tired. My destination is the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and to compete for a gold medal. The Olympics are like the sky, and I'm just like a little black bird that wants to fly furhter in the sky. "
Let's go to America...
Rebecca Red from New York
"Dawn is breaking; the sun is rising. I always begin my new day by running. I love running in the morning in the red sunshine. In 2008, I will go to Beijing, to feel the red sunshine of China, and to watch the running events at the Olympic Games. To me, The Olympics are like the big red sun, and I'm a little rabbit that is always running towards the sun."
Australia...
This is George Green from Brisbane
"I'm a member of the national high jump team. I practice jumping hard everyday. The Olympics are like a tall tree, and I'm just like a little green frog that wants to jump higher and higher, till it jumps to the top of the tree ---- the champion of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. "
Let’s go back to China…
The little girl is Xiao Huang from Beijing.
"My classmates are wearing yellow caps when planting trees. We are very sincere. We plant trees for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Our trees will make Beijing more beautiful! I hope our trees will grow stronger, higher and faster! The Olympics are like a big garden, and I'm just like a yellow flower that wants to grow stronger in the garden!"
Oh, I see. Everybody in the world has a beautiful dream about the Olympics , and so do I. I think The Olympics are like a big colorful stage of the world, and I'm just like a little bright light that wants to make the stage more beautiful.In 2008,when the Beijing Olympic games begin, China will become the centre of the world stage. And everybody from the five continents will hold hands together again, together we'll build the five rings in Beijing!
