3．My name is Ella，and I'm 22.Last year I went to Thailand for two weeks as part of a group of volunteers at an elephant sanctuary—a place where people look after sick and rescued elephants.To be honest，I was worried that the rest of the group might not like to talk with me because they were much older than me.I was also nervous because it was the first time I'd done anything like that.In the end，though，there was no need to worry.
One of our main jobs at the sanctuary was to collect the elephants' food.Elephants eat huge amounts of grass and banana plants，so collecting this took most of the day.It was really hard work，but it was worth seeing the elephants enjoy their meals.We also helped wash the elephants in the river using big brushes.I found that so much fun，even if I got wetter than the elephants did!The part of the day I most look forward to was the evening.By the light of the moon，we led the elephants on foot into the forest area where they spent the night.
All the volunteers stayed in a small house，so we didn't have much space.The weather was uncomfortably hot and wet，especially at night.The meals were delicious，which all of us enjoy.After dinner，all the volunteers and workers spent the evenings talking and playing games.
Now that I am back in the UK，I miss my friends there too much.When I look back，I can see how lucky I was to go there.Maybe I'll go back one day-I certainly will!

4．Many people think of traditional arts，they think of music.And，in China one of the most famous traditional artists is Tan Dun.
Tan Dun was born in a small village near Changsha，Hunan in 1957.He spent his early childhood with his grandmotjye.air.He worked as a violin player and arranger for a Beijing Opera troupe（京劇團）.At the age of nineteen，he heard Beethoven's Fifth Symphony（貝多芬第五交響樂） for the first time and decided to be a composer（作曲家）.When he was twenty，he studied music in Beijjye.aig.In the middle of 1980s，Tan Dun had a further study on music at Columbia University.Since then，he has lived in New York.
Tan Dun once said in an interview that he only studied Eastern music before the age of twenty，and after twenty he started to be educated in Western music.And by the age of thirty，he deeply understood both traditions. The educational experience gave him the power to create excellent works that connect the traditional and the modern，the East and the West.
Tan Dun has two great inspirations（靈感） for his music.The first is to join together Western and Chinese music.For example，his music for the Beijing Olympics in 2008 came from an old Chinese song and used both traditional Chinese and Western musical tools.His second is to use natural sounds in his music.For example，he created a piece called The Water Concerto in 1998.All the sounds used in the music are made with water.
With his music，Tan Dun tries to find the balance of the music between the East and the West as well as the music and nature.
