She always posts these things, and pictures of herself exercising, on social media. “Its nice to know exactly how much exercise you have done, rather than guess,” she said. “That way, I can keep pushing myself to improve.”Many people in China use WeChat to compare how many steps theyve taken each day. Some of them can be very competitive about this, comparing their scores each time they meet.However, these kinds of gadgets are not for me. I never look at my watch or use my phone when I exercise.

However, I was surprised to hear the little one said, “No, no! I do not want an elephant inside a boa. The boa is too dangerous and the elephant is too big. Everything is very small on my planet. Draw me a sheep.”Then I made a drawing. He looked at it carefully and said, “No. This sheep is already very sick. Make me another.”I made another drawing.“You see yourself!” he said, “This is a ram(公羊).”So I did my drawing again. But it was refused too. My patience was out, so I drew him a box quickly and explained, “This is only his box. The sheep is inside.”I was surprised when he said, “Thats what I wanted! Look!
