If I ruled the world …

If I ruled the world, I would do many things which I’d love to do.
Firstly, I’d become the king of the world. I could have the power to command all the government officials. I would change the law and make it fairer and more humanization. I’d decrease the crimes and stop the wars. I would build a more secure society. I want to see everyone lives in a happy life.
Then I’d provide all the children to study for free. I would change the educational system. I’d repeal the hidebound exams and stop the teacher and parents to evaluate the students by the examination paper. I’d to improve the facilities for every school and add more courses for the students to select. It will make the students haven’t to waste the time on the study which they don’t like. I’d make more chances for students to develop their strong suits and achieve their own dreams.
Finally, I would travel around the world. There are so many places that I want to go and I have never been to before. If I ruled the world, I would go anywhere follow my own wills. I would use the helicopter to go to every country. I could meet many different people, to know lots of traditional culture from every place, see all kinds of beautiful scenes and so on. I would have a very exciting life.

Sightseeing in Leicester

Haymarket Memorial Clock Tower
The Haymarket Memorial Clock Tower is a major sign in Leicester City Centre. It is in the middle of the city centre. It was constructed in 1868. It is in order to commemorate four people: Simon de Montfort, William Wyggeston, Thoms White and Gabriel Newton. There are four statues at each corner. Every weekend, some people act in front of the Clock Tower.

New Walk
New Walk is about 1100 metres. It is known as Queen’s Walk. It is from city centre to university. The road is made of cobblestons. Many different kinds of trees and flowers on the both sides of the road. If you walk on this road in spring, all the flowers are bloom. You can see many beautiful flowers around you. When you walk on this road in autumn, all the fallen leaves are on the road. Everything is golden, you can feel relax.

Castle Gardens
Castle Gardens are situated in the west of city centre. It is beside the Grand Union Canal. Castle Gardens include Castle Hall, John of Gaunts Cellar, and The Church of St Mary de Castro. The building was originally the Great Hall of Leicester Castle, which was erected in the 11th or 12th century. Some people said: "this is the one of the finest Norman Halls in England...” The timber roof is possibly 14th century. The Professor Horn said it was the earliest residential timber roof of Europe.

cook

This afternoon, I went to the supermarket to buy some tomatoes and eggs. It is ready for my dinner. This is my first time to cook. I'm afraid when the food down into the pan, because it has a horrible sound. Finally I finish it. When the food is put into the dish, I find that it looks good. Although, it is a little salty, I still feel very tasty.

The Wind And The Sun

One day the wind said to the sun, “Look at that man walking along the road. I can get his cloak off more quickly than you can.” “We will see about that,” said the sun. “I will let you try first.” So the wind tried to make the man take off his cloak. He blew and blew, but the man only pulled his cloak more closely around himself. “I give up,” said the wind at last. “I cannot get his cloak off.” Then the sun tried. He shone as hard as he could. The man soon became hot and took off his cloak.

a red,red rose
robert burns

o my luve's like a red,red rose
that's newly spring in june;
o my luve's like the melodie
that's sweetly play'd tune.
as fair art thou,my bonnie lass.

and i will luve thee still,my dear,
till a'the seas gang dry.
till a'the seas gang dry,my dear,
and the rocks melt wi'the sun;
o i will luve thee still, my dear,
while the sands o'life shall run.
and fare thee week,my onlu luve!

and fare thee awhile!
and i will come again,my luve,
tho'it were ten thousand mile.

Time

Time's fingers claw, I am losing hold.
They said, there is no hope for you on earth.
Time either still or maybe rushing.
In any case it will always turn on worse.
Time is fleeting.
Time stands still.
It stops for no one and you are trapped within.
But I do dream of the light.
You’re only falling back into the left hand side.

Every dog has his day

Here is a light-hearted music,its name is Every dog has his day.It is a cover versions,I don't know its original edition, but I like it very much.It sounds very comfortable.When I listen to it,I always feel that I am lying on the meadow and there is full of flowers.I am looking at the sky and watching the clouds floating in it.Then I can close my eyes and enjoying the soft and gentle wind.What a tranquil and easeful afternoon! Every time,when I listen to the song, I will have a very good mood.

Harry Potter

Today, I borrowed some DVDs of Harry Potter and watched it in the afternoon. I think it is a famous story and anyone know about it. Exactly,I had watched it in China long before. But I just watched it with chinese sound or chineae caption. So I specially borrowed the English version from my friend. I want to learn more about english. I think it is helpful that watch a film in english. I learned many things from the film today,and I know more words than before. I will continue to watch films like this. I think it is a way to improve my english.

My Little Room

When I came to England, I was offered a little room. It is a small place that I have got, but I like it. It has a milk-white wall and a black carpet. On the wall there is a big mirror and a red board. It also has some wooden furniture for me, the colour is milk-white too. My bed is on the left side of the room. It is small but comfortable. There is a window whit the colourful curtains towards the bed. Through the window, I can see a church and the beautiful sky. It is great scenery. I think I will have a good time here.

COMPUTER GAME

Yesterday,I played a computer game in my friend's room. The game seemed very intersting. There were a lot of streets and architecture in the game,and all the things there looks very real. I drived cars in the game,it was running quickly. I never play games before. It was the first time that I played it. I am not good at it and often bumped into the wall.But I felt very refreshing and funny.I thought it was a good way to relax when we are bored,but the eyes will be hurt if we play too long.
