An Interview with a non-playful Pig[modify from the playful Dolphin] Trainer

Carrie Chan {substitute from Tommy Im} has one of the best jobs inthe world---or at least she thinks so! She's a pig trainer at Ocean Park. Find out more about Carrie and her fascinating job inthe interview below.

How did you become a pig trainer?
I saw an advertisement in the newspaper which is in the South China Morning Post. I thought it sounded like an unusual job so I applied. That was nearly five years ago. Also, I was too lazy before. I want to train myself in the job.

Waht qualifications do you need to become a pig trainer?
Most of the trainers have a degree---but I don't have!{eliminate from the Bachelor of Science in Biology} I beg them to give me a job. I am very lucky! In the past, most of the trainers studied overseas. However, these days there are more graduates from local universities than frm overseas universities. I myself studied at the Chinese University.

What does a pig trainer actually do?
Well, one obvious answer is train pigs. However, we spend less time doing this than people think. Our responsibility is to look after the pigs---to make sure they are happy and healthy. For example, the first thing I do every morning is to check their temperature. I also spend a lot of time feeding the pigs, try to playing with them {because they always sleep} and cleaning the tanks. Pigs are not very playful. I am hard enough for me to play with the pigs. This a picture of me stroking and looking with my favourtie pig--- Tommy{substitue from the dolphin---Toto} to sleep.

How do you train a pig?
One of fist tricks we teach the pigs is to touch a stick with their noses. That is training stick over there. It's about a half- metre long. You can see one in this photo too. They also learn other simple tricks such as shaking hands, touching the trainers hand, singing and dancing. It takes time to learn tricks so the younger pigs generally know fewer tricks than the older ones.

Would you recommend tis job to other people?
Yes, definitely. It's hard work but very rewarding.

My Hobby

Today I want to talk about my hobby. My hobby are swimming , surfing on the Internet, watching DVD such as Detective Conan, Hong Kong's movie, etc.
Why my hobby is swimming? Because Hong Kong is very hot. Swimming can make me feel cool.
My favourite website is Xanga and MSN Messenger. Do you have MSN? MSN is very convenient so I like this.
Watching DVD is a way when you are boring. What is your favourite movie?

Book Report of ' English Language Usage and Grammar '

A lot of people think a book that is about grammar is very boring but this book is very simple and it is not boring. Don't think this book is not as thick as having 300 pages and you think you cannot learn lots of them. Actually, this book has 33 chapters and more than 50 exercises. Practise makes you be perfect. I learn a lot of skills in this book. I strongly recommend this book to everyone.

VOA.(Late)

Hi! I am from China, Hong Kong. I am thirteen years old. I am studying in Methodist College. My name is Keith.
I think it is a good way that the teachers give us money by doing something such as take a good attendance in class or improve your result, etc. It is an effective way to motivate the children to be good.
Maybe someone said If they grow up, they will think money is the most important things in the world. They don’t care about the knowledge that they have. They just care about money but I think it is still a good way to motivate us because everyone won’t work for others for nothing. When you have a job, the boss will give you money every month. Everything needs money- books, pen, bed, etc. Why don’t teachers give us money to motivate us?I hope every school on the earth can give children money to motivate them.

Talking about what i did today.

I want to talk about what i did today. Today, I went to the school with Cherry Ng and Arnold Kwan. Ms. Yick taught us F.3 Mathematics today. It was not very hard. After Ms. Yick taught us. I did my homework. It has too much homework. It is so crazy!
After the lunch time, Cherry Ng and I went to Art Room to help Ms. Li. We helped her to record the video. It was fun.

A Theme--Planning=]

Theme: Discrimination
I want to write about discrimination. My story is about a peolple who is from China. But he discriminated by the Hong Kong people because the Chinese people did not know how to say Cantonese. I think this idea is very common because it's happen a lot. I think we should care and love each other.
