Saturday, August 9, 2008 Sunny and hot

Today, I have taught my daughter another two front vowel phonems. She did better in prouncing them correctly than yesterday after reading after me sevral timesk.
And I am very happy for her much progress and good performance. The key to a little progress is to put your heart into it and try your best to manage it! Come on, gooooood girl!

Last night, my wife was on the night shift in the Chinese-medicine hospital, twice each. She was not very happy because she did not have a good chance to watch the opening ceremony of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The TV set in the hospital does not work very well and affected her watching of the grand event. So she watched it once again carefully and happily.

I have three main tasks: Making meals for my lovely family, Surfing the Internet to visit my blogfriends and Watching the Olympic Games. Sooooooo, I am very happy though it is very hot today.

Today, our players have had access to two gold medals. One is weightlifting gold medal and the other is shooting gold medal.
Young weightlifter Chen Xiexia won the first Olympic gold medal for Chinese delegation in womes's 48kg class weightlifting competition held in China's aerospace university. This is the first time for her to participate in the Olympic Games. She did very well in the event in confidence and full of vigarousness.
Marksman Pan Wei, a Chinese Olympic debutant, nailed down the second gold medal for Chinese delegation in men's air pistol competition.
The first gold medal of this Olympic Games has come to Czech Katerina Emmons this morning. She wrote her name into history when she won the 1st Olympic gold medal in women's 10 air rifle competition.
The famous player of our country, Du Li, is very unlucky to lose her chance to defend her champion. In Athens, in 2004, she won the gold medal of this item and also the first gold medal of that olympic Games. Much more regrettablly, she was still the best player in this item during the past four years. I think that the great great pressure is the key to her failure that she only ranked 5 in the today' final, which is a long long long distance to her best competition result. So regrettable.
