Issue-Book (Bridge to Terabithia)

We have to read two novels in this semester's English children novel course.We have finished the first novel,Matilda,so our next children novel is Bridge to Terabithia.It is writed by Katherine Paterson. She writes this book for her son,wants to teach him many things,including how to be a leader.The contents of this story is:Jess and Leslie is good friends,however, due to the stereotype,other students suppose they are boyfriend and girlfriend and laugh at them.
So,they try to escape those annoying things in a secret shelter.Then,they find a rope which can sway them to the other side of the mountain.This is their secret shelter.They start to imagine a kingdom of their own and they can be the leader of this imaginative world.Actually,the rope is symbol not only a way they can come to their imaginative world,but also a connection between Terabithia and them.In my opinion,there are some common point between Narnia and Bridge to Terabithia.For example,on one side,the rope in Bridge to Terabithia is a enterance,on the other side,the wardrobe in Narnia has the same function;Terabithia is a imaginative kingdom and Narnia is the same.In daaition,Leslie is a girl who full of courage and extroverted.However,Jess's personality is opposite,he is a boy who introvertrd.Lesile encourages and lead Jess to be a resoulte person,she can throw thees negative things in Jess's mind away.Finally,I feel regret about Lesile as a result of her cause of death.I can't figure out why such a nice person have this cause of death and die so young.(She was died by lightning)

A Show

I have to play a show of my groups in class at Dec.30.We decide that we want to play the chapter of Miss Trunchbull was suspect someone ate her chocolate cake and she gather all the children together to question who ate her cake.And my duties are play the cook and I have to be one of voice-overs.(We have two voice-overs) In fact,we follow the most structure of Matilda and change some place,for example,our ending is Matilda use her magic to punished Miss Ttunchbull,but from the book's ending,Matilda doesn't use her magic to punished Miss Trunchbull in the final.In addition,we are the first group to play our shows,so we feel very nervous about it,but we still have to play.However,in other hand,we can free ourselves from our show and nervous early than other classmates and we also can get a experience to prepare for our graduate performance in public.We also can watch others shows in a usual mood because we are not neverous,we have finished our show.If we are the final group to play our show,then we may not be able to concentrate on other shows.

Mid-Exam

Mid-exam is coming,I have four subjects have to test,English Literature,phonetics,tourism English and oral conversation.I think English Literature is the most difficult to me,because the rangs of mid-exam is more extensive than phonetics and other subjects.Teacher wants to test us Beowulf and many chapters of our text book.There are many names have to memorize and I always confuse their name.I still have one test of Tourism English,I think teacher will test us the knowlegde of wine and some questions when we want to book a room of hotel.And the oral conversation class is want us to divide several group and discuss an issue about woman rights.I have to discuss the change of woman form past to future in 15 minutes.Therefore, I wish I can perpare well on every subjects.

Assignment

What do you think should be the punishment for students who cheat in this class?
The score of this class will not effective and give them second chance to correct.
But if their attitude is worse, they will be given a record in their files.

Should they be allowed a second chance to “fix” their mistakes? If so, what can they do to fix their earlier mistakes?
Yes,they should be allowed a second chance to fix their mistakes.
I will ask them to do the test or homework again. And this time they should do the finished the homework by themselves to fix their easlier mistakes,and not to be cheat any more.

Questions of Cheat

1. In my opinion, some students chose to cheat as a result of they didn't prepared the lessons,tests or assignments and they didn't want to got low grade. I could heard students choose to cheat in tests frequently,especially university entrance exams.For example,I have heard a girl who pass the entrance exams because she choose to cheat,she hired another person to substitute her during the test.I heard it from news.


2. In my experience,students who cheating on exams or class work were asked to did the exams or class work again or given them zero mark,and expelled from the school for cheat on the exams or class work.Sometimes,if school think their attitudes were bad,when their behaviors were found by others,they may be flunk out school.I think those punishments are a fair decision for all students.


3. Actually,expelled from the university for “academic dishonesty" is very seriuos for me,because this notes will exist in my files and follow me all my life.And if student who choose a cheat in the which class,then that class's teacher will get him/her a low grade.Maybe school or teacher can force the educate of honest,it is moral lesson,student should know honest is the most important thing whether students have prepared the exams and class work or not.Students should know the consequence when they choose to cheat.

Plagiarism Punishment

In my opinion,I agree with the punishment in those cases.When teacher wants student to hand in an assignment,teacher is want to understand how much student have learned from the lessons and what teacher have teach.So,it is irresponsible for student who doesn't do their assignment and it is dishonest for student who copy other's assignment.It is also illegal for student who plagiarize the assignments.If students don't do the assignment by themselves,then teacher can't know how much they understand the lesson and how much they have learn.Due to the Internet is growing,many and many students stuff the Internet to "finish" their assignments. Through the Internet, people can see other people's essay easily and also can copy them easily.
Therefore,it is unfair for student who do their assignment earnestly and students who copy the assignment is can't learn something during they do their assignment.So,student who copy other's assignment should be punish.
