温总's gravitas

My favorite quote from PM Wen's interview with CNN's Fareed Zakaria

"...in the veins of the economist, we should see the blood of morality."

The wind
by Amy

Today I was super scared because the wind blew really hard. It blew branches off ,too. I could hear the wind blowing from inside. Now you can get why I got scared. I told my mom that I got scared,but she said “ It was okay”. Then I kept on hearing “Whoosh,Whoosh…”. I leapt on to my bed and curled up into a ball. Then I peeked out from my ball to see if it had stopped and …,it hadn’t!I was to(o) scared to even talk.To me it felt like a tornado or a hurricane but it really was just a little wind. I could hardly even walk, my legs were num(b)! A tree branch falling almost hit our widow! Our sunflowers fell,too.Believe me ,it was not sunny. One sunflower got pulled out of it’s roots! Our tomato(e)s fell,too.This day was hard for me I will remember it always.
The end.
