Seperating one from another studying group It is a hot debated issue that schools should educate students in groups or better to separate them individually. Personally, I think separate one from group has more benefits on several different levels. The most obvious advantage lies in the fact that it allows teachers to employee different pedagogic strategies to the particular group of pupils. For the more intelligent students, who are more likely to have a quicker mind and a stronger knowledge thirsty intension, teachers or tutors can include something more difficult and complex in their syllables, catering for their special needs. For the students who are not that intelligent may be slow at learning and acquiring new knowledge or skills, a correspondingly suitable teaching strategy then is highly desirable. In this case, the separate studying method is good for both of groups, since students can thereafter design different studying methods catering for their special needs. Of course, those who are in support of integration studying might firstly argue that separating one from another is a violation of individual rights and that everyone, whether smart or dull, should be treated equally. I think the notion of equality is not the issue. For the less intelligent students, they can be allowed to choose some advanced course originally designed for the smarter students, and vice versa. Overall, I think it is not bad to separate students and nurture them individually. The schools and teachers should take into considerations their pupils’ own preference as to being in or out of study group so that the benefit of this system can be maximized.

HELP!HELP! Aspirin is used to treat mild to moderate pain, and also to reduce fever or inflammation. It is sometimes used to treat or prevent heart attacks, strokes, and angina. Aspirin should be used for cardiovascular conditions only under the supervision of a doctor. Americans this year will swallow 15,000 tons of aspirin, one of safest and most effective drugs  invented by man. It is the most popular medicines in the world today. Its bad effects are relatively mild, and it is cheap. For millions of people suffered from arthrities,  it is the only thing that works. Aspirin, in short, is truly the 20th-century wonder drug. It is also the second largest suicide drug and is the leading cause of poisoning among children. It has side effects that, if   relatively mild, are largely unrecognized between users.  Although aspirin was first sold by German company in 1899, it has been around much longer than that. Hippocrates, in ancient Greece, understood the medical value of the leaves and tree bark which today is known to  contain salicylates, the chemical in aspirin. During the 19th century, there was a great number of experimentation  in Europe with this chemical, and it led in the introduction   of aspirin. By 1915, aspirin tablets were available in the United States. A small quantity of aspirin (two five-grain tablets) relieves pain and inflammation. It also reduces down fever by interfering with some of the body's reactions. Specifically, aspirin seems to slow down the formation of the acids involved in pain and the complex chemical reactions that cause fever. The chemistry of these acids is not fully understood, and the slowing effect of aspirin is well known. Is anyone who can help me find 10 mistakes in this passage and correct it?many many thanks.

The winter solstice Winter solstice is a very important solar term in Chinese Lunar calendar. Being a traditional holiday as well, it is still now celebrated quite often in many regions. Early during the Spring and Autumn period, 2500 odd years from now, Winter solsticewas first determined as the Chinese traditional solar term among the total 24 terms. In Gregorian calendar, it is around Dec 22nd or 23rd. Midwinter day is the very day in North hemisphere with the shortest day and longest night year-round. After it, daytime will become increasingly longer and the coldest clime will invade all the places on the Northern part of the globe. We Chinese always call it "JinJiu", which means once Winter solstice comes, we will meet the coldest time ahead. That conclusion is proved well founded. According to scientific results, on Winter solstice, a right angle is formed by the sun and the tropic of carpricorn. Thus, the North hemisphere receives the least sunlight and the shortest day and longest night occur. Ancient china did pay great attention to this holiday, regarding it as a big event. There was the saying that "Winter solstice holiday is greater than the spring festival". Nowadays, many regions still celebrate it as a big holiday. Northerners may have dumplings and raviolis that day while southerners may have dumplings made by rice and long noodles. Some places even have the tradition to offer sacrifices to the heaven and earth.

Happy Mid-autumn Festival! "Zhong Qiu Jie", which is also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival, is celebrated on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar.It is a time for family members reunion.The moon is usually round and bright in this evening (moon is bright and round on each month 15th ).So after dinner,people can enjoy the moon and eating mooncakes together.Because Chinese people regard the full moon as an auspicious symbol of abundance, harmony and luck. Th origin of "Zhong Qiu Jie" was from a legend of Chang-E(嫦娥）, the beautiful lady who is living in the moon.Long long ago,the earth had 10 suns in the sky which made the earth was quite hot.There was a great archer named Hou Yi (后羿),he shot down nine extra suns and kept the earth from being scorched.For this,he was rewarded with a pill containing the elixir of immortality. But his student wanted to steal the pill for staying live forever.And Hou Yi's wife Chang E discovered this and swallowed the pill.After Chang E swallowed pill,she flied to the moon in no time and became a permanent resident there.When Hou Yi went back home and he could not find his wife,he felt very sad and they missed each other. There also had another resident in the moon,his name is Wu Gang(吴刚).H was a lazy student who always disappointed his master and very immoral.So he was punished by being required to chop down a cassia tree in the moon.This was an impossible mission because once he cut the tree,the tree heals always competely recovered at the same time.So Wu Kang is still chopping away for eternity. In the 14th century, the eating of mooncakes at "Zhong Qiu Jie" was given a new significance. The story goes that when Zhu Yuan Zhang (a king of Ming dynasty) was plotting to overthrow the Yuan Dynasty started by the Mongolians, the rebels hid their messages in the Mid-Autumn mooncakes. Zhong Qiu Jie is hence also a commemoration of the overthrow of the Mongolians by the Han people. Happy Mid-autumn Festival to everyone! 中秋节快乐！^^

The Dragon Boat Festival The Dragon Boat Festival (端午节)is coming,it is one of my favorite festival because I love eating rice dumplings(粽子).I love China because its varieties of culture,dialects,and yummy food. The Dragon Boat Festival is celebrated on the May 5th of the Chinese lunar calendar. It is one of the most important Chinese festivals.The festival was to memory QuYuan.QuYuan was a faithful man in one of Chinese dynasty.He worked for government.But because of the misdeeds of jealous rivals and pitied country's fate,he commit suicide by jumping into river. People were touched by his faithful sprit and they drove boat try to find QuYuan's body.They made rice dumplings to feed fishes in case Qu's body was bitten.That is the original of dragon boat festival. Here is some tips for making rice dumpings: 1. 50 sheets of bamboo or reed leaves 2. Glutinous rice (1 kilogram) 3. Chinese dates (250 grams) steps: 1.Soak the rice and the dates 12 hours or more till they are soaked thoroughly. 2. Wash the leaves. 3. A chopping board is necessary for laying out the leaves. 4. Fold the leaves flat at the leafstalk to make a sheet. 5. Hold the sheet, fold it round in the middle and make a funnel till both ends are laid over each other in one direction. 6. Use about 1/10 kg. of rice and 6 dates for each dumpling. The dates must be covered by the rice so that they won't lose too much syrup in cooking. 7. Fold the leaves up to seal the open side of the funnel and tie the bundle with a band made of twisted leaves. Make sure that the bundle is tied neither too tight nor too loose. This helps make sure that the ingredients are well cooked. 8. Put the dumplings in a pot, cover with water. 9. Cooking time: 40 minutes in a pressure cooker; 2 hours in an ordinary pot. haha!do it yourself and you will get yummy rice dumpings! happy dragon boat festival!^^
