Last Friday I took the subway home as usually. Since our physics teacher had just teach us in class that the escalator (自动扶梯) worked, I decided to see how fast the escalator went. To my surprise, it went a speed of about 40 m/min. The next day, I went to a department store with her cousin Emily. I timed the escalator here too. I found that it was much slower, going about 30 meter every minute. Why? I check on the Internet and found the reason. Stores slow down escalators on a purpose, allowing customers more time to looking at their products.

Dear Editor,

I'm writing to tell you about how we students use computers in our daily lives. Some use them in a good way when some others don't. As far as I am concerned, more and more students now use computers help with their study. If we meet some difficulties when they are doing their homework, they always got help from the Internet. To spend their spare time, they look for more informations with the computers to have much more knowledge. At the same time, however, the great number of students are still so interested in PC games and chatted with others on the Internet that they can not return to their study. They are really in dangerous. Computers can either do good and harm to us.

Best wishes.

Yours truly,

Li Hua
