    　　Laws(法律)for children are good things. One hundred years ago in some countries, children worked eighteen hours a day in a factory at age seven. The factory owner could beat a child who fell asleep or was not fast enough. Both parents and teachers could do the same.

    　　Today, there are many laws about children all over the world. Some people think if children do something wrong, they should be punished(惩罚). Other people do not agree. The Inuits or Eskimos in Alaska almost never punish their children. The parents do not beat them. If the children go too far, their parents will punish their children by making fun of(取笑)them.

    　　Children in other parts of the world are not as lucky as Eskimo children. American parents can beat their children at home, but a teacher can’t beat a child in school. This is also true in Germany. Instead, in Sweden it is against the law for anyone to beat a child. Swedish parents can’t beat their children. The children also have a government official(政府官员)who works for their rights(权力). There is even a plan(计划)for children to leave their parents, though this is not a law yet!

    　　“ The only thing holding you back is yourself．Never say never”, said a rising 17-year-old singer, Justin Bieber, who was just an ordinary boy in Canada a few years ago．

    　　After the accident of falling from the 18th floor and lying in the snow for three hours, my hands were frozen and my spinal cord(脊髓)was seriously injured．All the doctors and professors in the famous hospitals in Beijing told me that there was little chance for my hands and my body to recover(康复)．

    　　After half a year of medical treatments and recovering exercises , I could not make any more progress for over a year．What was worse , I suffered a lot from depression(绝望)．On top of this , I suffered from insomnia , making every minute of the light seem to last forever．Hopelessly , mom and I came back to my hometown, which is small town in Guangdong．

    　　At that time , I thought that I would never be able to walk again．I would never love and be loved．I would never be able to earn even a penny．I would never be able to repay the kindness I got from my parents and many nice people．Life was meaningless．

    　　Now two years has passed．My hands are 80％ recovered．I can even type faster than a healthy person! Up to now, I have worked for a law firm as an interpreter for half a year already．Although I don't earn as much as before, I am able to pay for the food and clothes I need．What's more , I even have extra money to buy thanksgiving presents for my parents and my boyfriend．Through my blogs(博客), many people get to know me and like me．I can bring happiness to them．I can help those who are still suffering from depression and the pain of illnesses by chatting with them…．You see, I am living a meaningful life and I am happier than ever I could have dreamed．

    　　So, my friends, never say never．As long as you are alive , there is always hope and possibilities．It is never too late to take action to realize your dreams．(382 words)

    　　In 1993 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney．He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney's cartoon(动画片)film for children．When Walt Disney heard Nash's voice, he said“Stop!That's our duck!”

    　　The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the firm The Wise Little Hen．Donald lived in an old houseboat(水上住家)and wore his sailor jacket and hat．Later that year he became a star after an eight－minute Mickey Mouse film．The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy(贪婪的), and because he lost his temper(发脾气)very quickly．And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey's eight nephews(侄子)．Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn't a goody-goody like Mickey．

    　　In the 1930S, 40s and 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons．He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home．Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared－there were no more new cartoons．
