I chose this article because there are many youths in this world that can play music to win the competitions. The boy, who won that prize is only 14 years old. He have been famous since he was 9 years old. That boy is very famous in the pianist social in China. Many new children who known him let him be their model to start to play some music.

On August 2 2010, George Li, a 14 years old Chinese boy won the first prizes in international youth piano competition. He won the top prize of international youth piano competition. He achieved 10,000 U.S. dollars from the competition. He known as "piano virtuoso" from his public performance since he was 9 years old. In this competition gave a chance to pianist ages 13 to 18 years old all around the world. He chose "Chopin's Piano Concerto No.1 in E minor". And the others pianist form China also won the second prize and third prize. In conclusion, the results of this competition show that new generation of Chinese boys are improve a lot because the first, second and third prize, Chinese pianist are won it all.

In my opinion, it’s good that they support the boy who won the competition and give money to him. If he won the competition without any reward. He will not get the inspiration to further plays the thing that he loves. The person who play some music is more meditation than other because music make people relax and concentrate to do something.

E-Bikes

I choose this article because most of Chinese are riding e-bike on the streets in China. It become popular in recent years, several countries in Asia. It may help to reduce the usage of gasoline and help the global worming. Some place in my country use this car to be a transportation. It can help to decrease money for pay gasoline.

Electric bikes known as e-bikes, become popular in recent years. It around 200 US dollars, they can reach top speed to 30kph and go 50 kilometers, one charge costs 16 cents. In some cities use e-bike approximately 50 percent of all bicycle used. The batteries can be recycled. About 20 million e-bikes were sold each year in 2007 and 2008. It batteries can be charged overnight.

Urban Transportation and Mass Transit in China

I choose this article because the transportation is important to every part of the world. It should be place every part in China for convenient to transport from part to part in that country because China is a powerful country it should have a several transportation in this country for the invester will invest in this country.

Chinese streets are dominated by chaotic of several transportation. The number of cars and trucks is increasing everyday some cities are already covering by exhaust fumes and traffic jams. Beijing subway is predicted to be the largest in the world by 2015. Around 16 million Shanghaiese use the city public transportation everyday and other six million people ride their bicycles every day. Several cities in China are under construction public transport system. China can build these kind of transportation easier and faster than other country because the government owns the land, labor is cheap and protests against the system cannot be organized. Nowadays, at least 15 cities were building subway lines.

In my opinion, China is a powerful country. It’s good that China begin to build several transportation in their country. It much easy to travel from district to another district. From this point travelers can travel easier than the past. Moreover, investers will come and invester more in this country and it will be gains more profit from the new transportation.

Martial Arts School Starts Soccer Team

I choose this article because there is not many country in the world that applied martial arts with soccer, but China applied it into football. I ever seen the movie that something like this. I never think that it will become true in the real world. It may only one school that fix the martial arts with soccer.

This soccer team took inspiration from Stephen Chow's famous film Shaolin Soccer and World Cup. Li Lin, who is seventeen-years captain, started the team a few week ago. He said that his martial skill would help them to play soccer. His team spend 4 hours a week for practice with coach Wang Xiaobo. However, an anonymous said that monks are permitted to watch games. Finally, They must to according to religious doctrine to go to sleep early.

In my opinion, It’s probably good to apply martial arts with soccer. Soccer attract I think soccer has an influence on everyone, even monk. Many people are interested in this sport. In the future, this team maybe on the top of football team that get an achievement in the world. If there will develop their team as long as possible I believe that it will be happen for sure.
