they are talking about, but i cant understand what they are writing on it. they use chinese, english, numbers and pictures. sometimes i ask her if her friends can understand her meanings, she saidyes. they think its a powerful and secret tool and the parents and teachers cannot figure out at all.”a 14-year-old boy said,“the students in my class often use martian language to talk with each other. it can help us hide our secrets from our parents and teachers.”some people say “martian language” is good because its fast and easy. but some people say its not, they think we need to protect our

about their problems and only think about the activities.besides, many people find happiness in helping others. they will feel happy when they volunteer their time to do many meaningful things for
