Part I About the Bluemen performance.

A. Transcribe the complete text.
Your Attention please. Thank you for choosing Earth as your plantary vehicle. We hope you enjoy many wonderful features of this planet as your hurtle through the cosmos. Please note. However, that in the event continued inaction in face of global warming. Your seat cushion can be used as a flotation device. Also, please take a moment to locate this planet's emergency exits. As you can see, there aren't any. Earth to America! Can you hear? Sending out a message. Loud and clear. Can you hear?

B. What do you think of this performance?
The performance is quite funny. Blue Men used thier heads to beat tempo and used little movie to follow the tempo. That is an interesting way to remind people to notice the global warming problem. Everyone knows that the enviroment is worse and worse, everybody took this thing as a serious thing. But seldom people use cushiony way to treat it. I think it is a good performance for us to feast on it.

Part II:About global citizenship

A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?
The dictionary defines "citizen" as "a person who is a member of a particular country and who has rights because of being born there or because of being given rights, or a person who lives in a particular town or city". We born on the earth and have rights to use natural resource. When I do my best to protect the earth and do my effort to concern the enviroment issue, I think I am a global citizen. I do the recycle every moment when I have the chance. I concern International News at least twice a week. I take myself as a global citizen.

B. How can you become a better global citizen?
I think the better way to become a better global citizen is to involve in the national organization. When you in a group, you will give much more attentiveness on that.
But now I have no time and no other mind to attend any national groups. I still will concern the issue and do all of the above-mentioned things in my life. If I have more free time, I surely will go to the organization which I am interested in and have lots of passion on it to become a wonderful global citizen.

Read English Novel

I read a novel called "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland".
It's an old story that everyone sould know about it.
Though it is an easy story to understand, but I did learned some new vocabulary from the novel.
Everytime I finished one chapter, I felt cheerful.
Study English can be a happy thing if you chose the right way and the right resourse to study.

Homework 3

I think my CEF level is between B1 and B2.
According to my goal which I want to achive last time, I want to make some change.

Specific actions to achieve that goal:I will read a novel "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" in one month. Beacuse I found read novel is much more fun than read magazine. I do check English news twice to three times every week not every day.

I always check CNN http://edition.cnn.com/.
I had a notebook to write down every new vocabulary that I don't know.

Taking this English lesson I found that my English is not good enough. So I will do more effort on my English to improve my listening.
