ABC means American-Born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside and white inside.

4. The most famous statue-the Sphinx in Egypt has been damaged. The experts are trying to find out the cause to protect it.
As we all know, the Sphinx has the body of a lion and the face of a man. It was cut from limestone(石灰石) near Egypt's pyramids about 4, 500 years ago. Not long ago a large piece of stone fell from the Sphinx's right shoulder.
In order to protect the statue from more harm, a computer was placed on it to measure rainfall, wind speed and air temperature.

The effects of age, wind, water and pollution have greatly weakened the Sphinx. Sunlight, wind, water and pollution have been eroding the outside of the statue for centuries.

Brad,
I am a boy in the first grades of a senior high school. I feel uneasily recently. At home I feel like prisoner. I am not allowed to watch TV or surf the Internet. The only thing I have to do it is studying. Every time I got a low mark, my parents will scold me sharply. There’s a generation gap among my parents and me, but it’s always difficult to communicate. Life are supposed to be colorful and wonderful, isn’t it? How should I devote all my time and energy to the study so as to entering a good university? I am very unhappy and lost. I need your help.
Best wishes,
Yours
Li Hua

【小题1】
Writing a book takes a strong will, hard work, and, most importantly, time. There’s no easy way to finish your first book, but we’ve got some tips that might help you. The first thing is that you should find a place to write your book. Find a place convenient and comfortable for you. Make sure you can put your heart into your writing at this place.
【小题2】
Then make sure you have everything you need around you. Have plenty of pens, paper for printing if you’re using a computer, or notebooks if you’re writing by hand. Make sure you’ve got them near you, so you don’t have to keep getting up to find things.
【小题3】
While writing your book, you should put down your magazine, turn off your mobile phone, cut off the Internet...Make sure that you will not be distracted (分心) by something unimportant. You should focus on the book.
【小题4】
Try and set aside an hour a day, or at least a few hours a week. You can pick a time when your house is quiet--whether you get up an hour earlier or go to bed an hour later. You should soon find yourself in the habit, and you may even find your hour turns into three.
【小题5】
When you’re not at your desk, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be thinking. Carry a notebook on you at all times. Write down all your ideas, no matter how weak they seem. You may only use 5% of them, but that 5% will be well worth the effort.
