When you eat rice dumplings, who do you think of?
The poor Chinese poet—Chi-Yuan（屈原）or White
Snake（白蛇娘娘）? These two persons are famous.
We often think of them on Dragon Boat Festival.
I remembered there were many interesting things
to do on Dragon Boat Festival when I was a little girl.
I liked to eat rice dumplings. They were delicious.
There were another two things we did at noon on
that day. One was standing the eggs at 12 o’clock at
noon. The other was washing our bodies with the
Water at Noon.（午時水） The water could make

I still like to celebrate Dragon Boat Festival now.

Hundreds of scientists around the world
are researching how birds learn to speak.
They have found that most birds learn new
sound when they are young. The learning
time for white-crowned sparrows is the first
two-and-a-half months after they are
hatched. Newly hatched birds are quiet, but
they hear a rich variety of sounds from the
adult birds around them. Soon they start to
practice those songs at once, until their
songs crystallize and are set in their memory
for life. If the birds make a “mistake” while

Register, or the degree of formality of a conversation,
tells us information about the kind of relationship the
speakers have. Many languages convey register through
the use of different verb endings, different words for
“you,” or the use of family names instead of given
names when speaking to anyone other than family or
closest friends. Because Americans tend to use given
names, many learners of American English get the
impression that American always speak informally.
This impression, however, is false. American English,
like other languages, has formal and informal speech,
even if distinct formal or informal verb endings or special
forms of “you” do not exist. Although Americans tend to
use given names immediately, they may still speak
somewhat formally with people they don’t know well,

I admire my friend Betty because she is self-assured and
discriminating. Unlike some people I know, Betty has confidence in
herself. She is not plagued with insecurity and self-doubt. Some
people carry little monsters in their heads that tell them, “You’re no
good. Stay in your hole and hang your head.” Not so with Betty. A
happy little fairy lives in her head, and it says, “Hi, sweetie, glad
you’re here. What can I offer you? Make yourself at home!” Betty is
not so self-assured that she is arrogant, but she likes herself. As a
result, it is a pleasure to be with her. She relaxes people because
she does not lean on them neurotically for support. Her faith in
herself is contagious. Her self-possession inspires others to be like
her, and her appreciation of life spills over to her friends.
Being confident probably helps Betty to be discriminating. She sees no
reason to settle for second best, and she hardly ever does. Why spend an
evening with boring people just to be with people? Why not spend an
interesting evening at home alone? Why go to a bad play or sit in a bad
seat to see a good one? Instead, wait for a good play and save money, if
need be, to sit in a good seat. These are the choices Betty made. She
prefers old friends to strangers or mere acquaintances, and she will do just
about anything for her friends—short of making dinner for them, which she

Can you imagine fasting for an entire day, from dawn to sunset?
Muslims all over the world do this, not just one day, but every day for a
whole month. During Ramadan, not a sip of water, not a crumb of food
passes their lips from sunrise to sunset.
Fasting during Ramadan is to show obedience to Allah’s law, which, as
revealed by Prophet Muhammad, will bring peace to the individual and
balance to the society. It is just one of the five Pillars of Islam, the five
things that every good Muslim does. The other Pillars of Islam are to recite
the profession of faith; to pray five times a day; to pay zakat, which is a
donation to the poor; and to perform, if possible, the hajj, or holy
pilgrimage to the city of Mecca in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
As children grow up in the world of Islam, they first learn to pray five
times each day. The next step they make in their faith is to fast. They may
practice fasting when they are just five or six years old. Young children
start off without eating breakfast, but they will have a snack when they
come home from school. By the time they are nine or ten, Muslim children
might fast a whole day at a time, even several days in a week, but they will
probably not fast for the whole month. Then, when they turn eleven or
twelve, they join their parents and older brothers and sisters in fasting
every day during the month of Ramadan.
Those who fast during Ramadan are rewarded for their obedience with a

The Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument
Where To Start
A good place to begin your visit is at one of the Monument’s visitor centers or
information stations. Interpretive staff are available to answer your questions and help
you plan your visit. Ask about the daily schedule of interpretive walks, talks and theater
presentations that share the geologic, biologic, and cultural history of the area. The
Mount St. Helens Visitor Center, Coldwater Ridge Visitor Center, and Johnston Ridege
Observatory are open daily year-round, except for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New
Year’s Day. Information stations, as well as the Windy Ridge Viewpoint, are open daily
mid-May through early fall.
Seasons
Most viewpoints on the Monument’s north, east, and south sides can be reached
from Memorial Day until snow closes the roads, usually in late October. Trails are
generally open from June through October, although some lower elevation trails can be
hiked all year. Winter can be a beautiful time to visit Mount St. Helens. The Monument
visitor centers are open daily, except winter holidays, and the Sno-Parks at Marble
Mountain, Cougar, and Wakepish provide winter access for cross-country skiers and
snowmobilers. Washington and Oregon Sno-Park permits are required to park your
vehicle at a Sno-Park.
