秋天的树叶
秋天到了,山野阔的树叶转眼变成很美丽的颜色,这又是为什么呢?
原来在夏天时,树叶工作得很努力,可是,天气转凉后,它就停止了工作
树叶所制造的营养也就飞能送到树枝和树干上,而沉淀在叶子里
树叶的也绿素也会遭破坏,就和留在叶子里的养分或桔萎了的茶褐色混合,这样就变成各种美丽的颜色了.

秋天的天空

秋天还常刮大风,风一来,空中的尘埃全被吹敖了.

因此,秋天的天空很晴朗

The Buddhist Equivalent of the Bible

 

There is no "holy" text in Buddhism that is the equivalent of the Bible, Torah or Koran, which are thought to be the word of God. In Buddhism there are many sutras, which are recordings of teachings given by the Buddha or other advanced Dharma practitioners. The Buddha said that no one should simply believe what he said, but we should all think for ourselves and discover the truth through analytical meditation.

Thor–the movie

 

I saw the movie "Thor" this afternoon, the 3D version.

The movie is pretty good. I plan to buy the DVD when it comes out.

However, I don't recommend paying the extra $3.50 to watch it in 3D. It's not worth it. The only parts that were cool in 3D were the closing credits.
