Rule 1 : Look carefully at the title. Often the topic is
one of the words in the title.
When you see the girl for the first time,you may think she is a boy. She is very outgoing. Who is she Wang Meng, the Chinese top skater.
Wang Meng first got to the finishing line in the women's 1,000 meters short track speed skating final(短道速滑决赛) at the Vancouver Olympic Winter Games(温哥华冬奥会). After she succeeded in the 500-metre and 3,000-metre races, she won her third gold medal this time.
Just before the final race Wang Meng caught a bad cold and coughed terribly. With the words of "You can, you can do!" she won at last. She said,"I really feel these three gold medals belong to my team, to China. It was with the help of my team that I won the prize. "
Though Wang Meng is only twenty-four, she has been the most successful Chinese skater. We are proud of her and her team.
Rule 2 : Look for clue words or phrases that are used repeatedly. Often that word or phrase is the general topic of the article.
How to find the topic
Rule 1 :
Look for the topic sentence for the main point in the first sentence,within the paragraph or at the end of the paragraph.

A trip to Yangzhou
The day finally arrived. My grandparents and I left for Yangzhou early in the morning. It took us about 30 minutes to get there by train.
In the morning, we visited Dongguan Street. I had some noodles and bread for breakfast at home. And I had some local snacks in the street.I bought some souvenirs there for my friends.
At noon, we had a big dinner in Shi Weitian Restaurant. Fried rice is my favourite local food. My father had some fast food in his office. What a pity!
In the afternoon, we visited the Slender West Lake. The views there are very beautiful. My grandfather took many photos.
All of us enjoyed this trip very much, and I hope to visit
Yangzhou again.

Today some jokingly or seriously say that friends are made to be used. It makes me very sad.In fact, true friendship is the communication and understanding of the hearts.
True friendship is like water. Water is tasteless, but is helpful when we're thirsty.True friends aren't with each other every day, but are connected in heart every minute.
True friendship is like medicine. Though it is bitter,it cures your illness. True friends give you some advice. They criticize you when others have a good word for you because they worry that you may lose your cool head.
True friends make you complete. Many persons go along with you through your life However, you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls. Without them, you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit.
Once you have found such a true friend, do treasure him.
