American boys and girls love watching television. Some children spend six hours a day in school and four to six hours a day in front of the television set. Some even watch television for eight hours or more on Saturday.

Televisions are like books or films. A child can learn both bad things and good things from them. Some programs help children to understand the news, and others show people and places from other countries or other time in history. With television, a child does not have to go to the zoo to see animals or to the ocean to see a ship. Boys and girls can see a play, a concert or a game at home.

Television brings many places and events into our homes. Some programs show crimes (犯罪活動) and other things that are bad for children, so parents sometimes help them to find other interesting things to do.

In the USA, each year, students take part in a kind of competition called the Science Olympiad.

It has a lot of different events. Students go there to show how much they know about the science of music, biology, chemistry and others. My best event is forestry.

The big day had come at last! First，I went to watch the tower building competition. That’s when students build small towers and put heavy things on top of it. They hope they can hold them up. One of my schoolmates was putting things on her tower. She was nervous，and in the end it was too heavy for her tower to hold it—it broke! I felt bad for her.

After lunch, I helped some teammates with their events. One was geography，and the other was history. I don’t know much about those things, so I just watched my teammates do most of the work.

At last, it was time for my favorite event—forestry. The rules were easy. We had to look at more than 40 different kinds of leaves and find out which plants they were from. We also had to answer some questions about the uses of each leaf. I knew almost all of the leaves and could answer most of the questions. I had spent more than a month studying on the Internet to get ready. At the end, it was time for the awards (頒獎）.I was nervous，because the forestry awards were last. We won second place in the whole state! A nice man gave me a medal and smiled at me.
