Number the stars

In this book, I know that Annemarie and Ellen were friends. Kirsti was Annemarie's younger sister. I think she was very cute and she always asks some silly questions that makes her sister and mother had nothing to say. And she was a brave girl too. I know that the Germans were bad. They made orders to close many stores run by Jews. And they planed to arrest all the Danish Jews. Ellen's family will be taken away if they don't hide themselves too. So, Annemarie's father planed to keep Ellen and take her parents to a safe place.

History Assignment

For the 13 colonies, they must obey Britain's economic policy. The 13 colonies must sell raw materials to Britain only.And there were no free tradings. They may use Britain's ships to transport goods only. But for Hong Kong, it is a free port in 1841. You can use what ship no matter you want and the ships could enter Victoria Harbour freely.Beside that,there were free tradings in Hong Kong. So, there were many foreigners came to for trading.
There are many political differences and similarities between Hong Kong and the 13 colonies. The Britain government passed some acts made the colonists had to pay for the cost of keeping this army.Such as Sugar act, sugar and wine imports must pay a tax ; Stamp act, all printed documents must pay a stamp duty from 1 cent to 50 dollars; Townshend acts, all paper, tea, lead and glass must a tax.In Hong Kong, we have to pay a tax for wine and pay for the stamp also. But we don't have Townshend acts.

Ocean Park

On Friday, we went to Ocean Park. My friend and I had took a lot of amusement rides. But all of the Rides just have a few people on it, some of the rides we played two times. I think that day was time to go to Ocean Park. On need to line up, and play as much as you can. I think The Dragon is the most exciting ride that we had took, but Yenlt was afraid of it. Then I took with Ada only. On the ride, there were not more than ten people. When The Dragon started, our heat was bitting very fast. Although I am afraid of it, i love to ride on it. I love the moment that I fall down,that was the most exciting part.
At first, I wanted to played The Abyss, but nobody accompany me, and i didn't have enough brave to play it.
At all, i felt very happy and tired. When i went home, i slept immediately.
