Inventions make our life easier and better. A big invention makes us feel it all the time. There are also small inventions around us which are 41 and interesting.
Do you ever find it annoying to look for the TV remote Are you tired of 42 shoes when playing different sports Don't worry. Students at Clayton Middle School in the US might be able to 43 you.
Dylan Glick, an 8-grade student, thought 44 the idea of a "retractable remote(可伸缩遥控器)". The remote has a rope to connect with its resting place. 45 people push a button on the remote, the rope will give the remote back to its resting place.
"It is something that I would use, and I'm sure 46 parents would use, too." said Glick. He said that sometimes at night when he wants to go to bed, he needs at least ten minutes 47 the remote. So he came up with the 48 .

Dear Steven,
How is it going I’m glad you like China and are interested in Chinese culture. Now I’ll tell you something about Chinese culture.
There are many traditional festivals in China, such as Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival. People eat different foods to celebrate different festivals. During the Spring Festival, we often get together as a family and eat dumplings, because it is a symbol of reunion and good luck. It’s also my favorite food. And in the Mid-Autumn Festival, people often eat moon cakes, because the shape is like the moon. We often eat Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival.
If you want to visit some places of interest, you can go to the great wall and Tiananmen Square. These are places where foreigners must go. If you are interested in clothing, you can try cheongsam or Tang costume, which is a favorite clothing for many people, especially girls. In addition, Beijing Opera is the most famous, but now many people don’t understand it. If you want to travel far away, you can take a high-speed train, which is very fast and will bring you the most comfortable travel.
I’m looking forward to seeing you in China.
