Here are some predictions: things to come, things to go. </font></div><div><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; The Spring Festival, the most important Chinese holiday when everyone returns home, has caused headaches for millions of Chinese. More than 2 billion people travel at the same time, making getting travel tickets and the journey difficult. But in 28 years, Spring Festival travel may not be a problem at all. China plans to build more than 120,000 kilometers of railway and a fast transportation network that will serve 90% of the population by 2020. And because most of China will be cities, people will not have to go to other places to find a job, so it will no longer be a problem.</font></div><div><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Newspaper will come to an end in 2043. In the future, digital newspapers will be sent to personal web tools through Internet. Readers can discuss topics with journalists and editors. Information will move faster. </font></div><div><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Oil is running out faster than expected. But scientists have found something else for oil as fuel. Coal, natural gas, solar power, nuclear power and even water can take the place of oil as sources of energy. </font></div><div><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Schools will go electronic. Computers will be important and popular among the students. Everything will be in the computer and students will not need to bring books to school. They will find information on the Internet. A computer will be the studentsrsquo; library, schoolbag and connection to the outside world. There will be robot teachers, they will check homework on computers and communicate with the studentsrsquo; parents through e-mail. And school buses will be like spaceships, comfortable and safe.</font></div>
<p>nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; <font size="3">In Germany there are different kinds of high schools. Some prepare students for work, others prepare them for college. All schools are great places for making friends and learning German.</font></p><div><font size="3">Short days</font></div><div><font size="3"><span>nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Most high schools in Germany begin at about 8:00 a.m. and end at about 3:30 p.m. This means your morning will be busy with classes. You will have time to do homework and take part in private </span>clubs after school.</font></div><div><font size="3">Formal setting</font></div><div><font size="3"><span>nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; In Germany, teachers and studentsrsquo; relationship is more formal than you might be used to. Teachers are <u>respected</u> and students must use the formalldquo;Sie</span>（德语，您）rdquo; when talking to teachers.</font></div><div><font size="3">Getting to school</font></div><div><span><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Most students take public transport to school or ride a bicycle. Some areas have school buses. It is not common for parents to drive students to school.</font></span></div><div><strong><font size="3">nbsp;</font></strong></div><div><strong><font size="3">Private clubs</font></strong></div><div><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; nbsp;In many countries, schools offer official sports and after-school activities. This is less common in Germany. After-school activities are usually organized through private clubs. There are clubs for things like soccer, dance, choir, theatre and almost everything else. Once you are in Germany, ask around at school and talk to other students to find out what private clubs are in your area and meet your interests.</font></div><div><strong><font size="3">Different states, different schools</font></strong></div><div><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Each of Germanyrsquo;s 16 states has its own slightly different school systems. The school system in Brandenburg will be a little different from the system in Bavaria for example. Where you live, your knowledge level and your age will decide what school you can attend.</font></div>
<div><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me,nbsp; ldquo;You should have goals like climbing the mountain.rdquo; Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldnrsquo;t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.</font></div><div><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birdsrsquo; singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing, but my father said to me, <u>ldquo;You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you canrsquo;t see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of the nice things, which is just like your life.rdquo;</u></font></div><div><font size="3">nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope in life. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as<u> crystal</u>.</font></div>
