New Activity in Physical Education Classes

At school, we have Physical Education classes. We play basketball, soccer, kin ball and more. I would like to integrate a martial art in this class like in schools in Asia.

Martial arts are excellent sports because the goal is to surpass yourself. You are supposed to fight to become better, not only in martial arts but in every aspect of your life. ¸

Martial arts help people to be concentrated. It can help students with bad behaviors because it teaches you to respect yourself and other people. It also helps you to be confident because you have more self-control and you think before acting. Knowing yourself helps you to understand others better like martial arts masters who make a move and can predict how the opponent will react.

To conclude martial arts should be integrated at school because they contribute to develop a lot of physical and mental aspects of a human being.

Mandarin Lesson

In mandarin, they are 5 tones.


The 1st tone is one that is high.The tone must be strong from the beginning to the end of the word. Emphasis on the vowel is used to show what the tone is: ā like xīn/心 (heart) kāi xīn/开心 (Happy)

The 2nd tone is a tone that starts low and rises. The sign at the top of the vowel is á like tóng/同 (same) tóng xué/同学( Student)

The 3rd tone is the most difficult tone.This tone starts low and then back to the neutral tone. The sign placed on the vowel: ǎ like hǎo/好 in the sentence nǐ hǎo/你好(hello)

The 4th tone is the tone that goes low . Starting from the neutral tone and then it lowers. The sign is:à . example: love (ài/爱) like in this sentence wǒ ài nǐ/我爱你 (I love you)

The 5th tone is the neutral tone. It's like to speak normally without emotion. There isn't any accent on the vowel to indicate the tone.

The tones are the first thing to understand if you want to speak Mandarin.

In Chinese to conjugate verbs we need a character that you put before or after the verb like:

我是: I'm . (I'm) in the future tense you put 会(huì) before the verb. 我会是:I will be.
我是:I'm. In the past tense you put 了(le) after the verb. 我是了:I was

Negative sentence.
To make a negative sentence we put 不 before the verb.

Example: I' m Chinese (我是中国人) so I'm not Chinese is :我不是中国人
We can make a negative sentence with 没(méi)

Interrogative sentence: We put the verb before and after this character 不 like: 你是不是中国人 (Are you Chinese?)

Another method: The character 吗(ma). We put this character at the end of a sentence like 你喜欢他吗/你喜欢她吗 (Do you like him?/Do you like her?)

Few sentences:

你好/nǐ hǎo (Hi)
你好吗?/nǐ hǎo ma (How are you?)
很好,您?/hěn hǎo, nǐn? (Fine and you?)
你什么名字?/ nǐ shénme míngzi? (What is your name?)
我的名字是叫/wǒ de míngzi shì jiào (My name is...)
我叫/wǒ jiào (I'm call)
对不起/dui bù qǐ: Sorry.
你是谁/nǐ shì shéi: Who are you?
我想有/ wǒ xiǎng yǒu (I want to have...)
我想吃/wǒ xiǎng chī: I want to eat.

(The chinese characters are simplified ones and not traditional ones)

Do you know TOMBOY? It is a name given to girls who disguise themselves or adopt a masculine style, by choosing life, not fashion. They can be from anywhere in the world, but a real phenomenon has grown to Taiwan, China, Malaysia and other Asian countries.

Many friends ask: How do tomboy not have breasts? The answer is that they have a breast binder. It is a kind of very tight bodice flattened their breasts. This is really not good for the breast. (That's why I have not bought.)

What's Mr Rich? Mr. Rich is a brand at the base for Tomboy. The main top model is the tomboy Chris. Other top models are Junike, Astroboy, FB, Rabbit.
