To me, music is food and water. I like traditional Chinese music very much. What do you think of music?

Music is everywhere in our life. When you watch films or TV plays, do you find them interesting if there is no music? You would find them boring. And when you are waiting for your friends, you would like to listen to a piece of music because it helps you enjoy your time. Sometimes you may go to concerts. Yesterday, I went to a concert with my parents.

Different people have different understanding of music. Music has meaning for everyone in some way. Some people like to sit by the sea and listen to the sound of the sea. Some enjoy listening to the singing of birds, like my brother. Those sounds are a kind of music to him. Of course, it has a special meaning for me. Through music a child goes into a world of beauty, learns to take care of others and makes his mind and body strong. Music is an important part of life.

Tree Planting Day is an important day in the world. Today, many countries have such a holiday. In China, Tree Planting Day is on March 12th. It is a day to remember Sun Yat-sen (孙中山). Sun Yat-sen was a great person in China. But many people don’t know that Sun Yat-sen helped to save trees.

Tree Planting Day in China started in 1915. From 1916 to 1928, Tree Planting Day was celebrated (庆祝) on the Chinese Qingming Festival each year. Sun Yat-sea asked people to stop cutting down trees in many of his books. He even planted trees himself with many people. Sun Yat-sen died on March 12th, 1925. In order to remember Sun Yat-sen, Chinese people decided to set Tree Planting Day on March 12th every year.

Planting trees is good for our Earth. It can make the world beautiful. Trees give us forests, stop soil (土壤) from losing, and protect farmland. They can make the Earth a good place for us to live in.

Without trees, our lives will be difficult. For example, we can’t get fruit or oil from trees. So it’s important for everyone to plant more trees an Tree Planting Day.
