我作周末去Kawa Kon。 我在周末不图书馆工作，因为我很忙。 我哥哥和他的朋友也去Kawa Kon。 我看电影，好喝瓶Ramune。 Ramune是日本的汽水。 我星期五和星期六很忙，可是星期七不忙，所以我就回家。
Jade is an absolutely beautiful stone, and guess what! The earliest pieces of jade artwork were found in China, made during the stone age (imagine that!). Apparently, lots of people wore jade as decoration, but used it for witchcraft. Jade was later given around as gifts, and then during the Qin and Han dynasty, people began to think that jade would increase longevity, and started burying people with priceless jade figurines. Soon, lots of things were made from jade, bowls, dishes, bracelets, necklaces… Jade is wonderful because it doesn’t appear to wear down. It absorbs water and oil and still retains its lustrous color.
Jade: See how pretty it is?
