My School Clubs Report

I have take part in two clubs in GCA: one is basketball club, the other one is game club. I really love basketball and games and they help me a lot. During last term, our club activities made me able to do better in them.
Before I took part in the first activity of basketball club, I thought our leader would let us play basketball and taught us some skills. Later, I found that I was wrong. Mr. Saxby asked us to run along the track for ten laps. He told us that it is important to run fast and have a good endurance. I used to be a runner and exercised everyday, so I did not find it very tough. However, many other members felt very tired about that and they often walked along the track. Almost every time, I was the first one to finish running. Later, Mr. Saxby asked us to run fast for 90 seconds for several times. This exercise requires not only a good stamina, but also a high speed of running. However, I found it even easier because I was just a dash runner. When Mr. Saxby said the first five runners could go home earlier, I was always in them. Those activities kept for nearly 2months, then we went into the gym and played basketball to choose members of our GCA basketball team. Mr. Saxby wanted me to join them because I can run the fastest. However, I refused him because I had to go to the sports school very often and had no time to practice with them.
The game club was really a fun club. All of our club members came together on Friday afternoon and played games with each other or chatted about games. I started to play GB when I was very young and kept it all the time. Now, like many of us, I play PSP now. My favorite game was monster hunter II. Many of us played it and we often joined together to hunt monsters. We also played other games, such as DJ Max, NBA Live 2008 and so on. Sometimes Joe brought his PS2 into school and they played it in our classroom. Though I did not know how to play it, I can watch them playing, that was also a funny thing.
Both basketball and games helped me a lot in my daily life. My body became stronger because of playing basketball and exercising for it. A healthy body is much more important than anything else. In addition, when I play basketball outside, I can make more friends. Game also helped me. Some people think that playing games are not good, but I do not think so. When I feel anxiety, I can play games to calm down. Playing games once a week made me relax. So I think that if we play games not often, we can be better in daily life.
Those are my club experience in the first term in GCA. Because of the clubs , I can do better in these two hobbies, and do better in many other things.

My Volunteer Work Report I

During the winter holiday, I did volunteer work for my uncle. He owned a big market in my home town. My duty was to help my cousin to get some vegetables and meat to sell in our market from the food market in the early morning. This work was a little tough, but I did my best in it.
On the twenty-second of January, I went on my work the first time. My cousin called me at about 5 o’clock to ask me to go down stairs and we went to the food market. I thought it was very early, but there have already been many people in the vegetable market. We parked our lorry near the entrance of the market and went into it. My cousin has done the work for almost half a year, so he knew where to buy the things we want. He went here and there to tell the vegetable growers what and how much we need. I found them unfamiliar, so I could just follow my cousin and helped remind him things he forgot. We spent about one hour and a half walking everywhere. Then, we went back to our lorry and waited them to carry things there. We sorted and counted the food with our list. At about half past seven, we got everything on the list in our lorry. At last, we drove back to our market and carried the food out of the lorry into our market. We finished at about 8 am. I felt very tired then and went back home to sleep again.
The next two days were almost the same as the first day, what I did was just following my cousin and reminding him. The fourth day was a little special, because it was the day before the spring festival. We got up at 4 am and drove two lorries to the food market. Though it was even earlier, the food market has been very busy. That day we bought much more meat than before. Because I became more familiar with the food market, I could do more things such as looking for the food and buying it by myself. I also helped carry food to our lorries. After finishing my work, my uncle gave me my salary – an one –hundred- yuan shopping card of the market.
My work was a little tough because it required me to wake up very early, walk everywhere, remember many things and carry heavy things. If I want to do a good job in the work for a long time, I should have diligence, good memory and strong body. My cousin has done the work for a long time, and he became much more careful, patient, powerful, and he is not like a child any more. In addition, we can make sense of how the unit- price could change because of the seasons, festivals, and so on. Therefore, I think it can also help us to learn business well.
This is my first experience of work, and I felt satisfied with it. I learned a lot from it, such as diligence, memorizing. In addition, I knew how hard it is to make money from my first work experience. I will use them in my daily life.

My Phisical Activity Report

I like to do sports and I used to be an athlete. When I was a junior in my junior high school, I started to play basketball and got interested in it. Now, I do not go to the sports school any more, but I still keep playing basketball very often. I have been in two basketball teams, one was set up by friends from the same junior high school, and the other one was set up by classmates in GCA. Now I nearly play basketball everyday, and basketball becomes an important part of my life.
I am the best basketball player of all my classmates because my body is stronger and I can run much faster than anyone else. So when our team mates play basketball together, I can teach some skills of advance and defend. Sometimes I am like a coach of my team. However, some team mates do better in some skills than me, for example, Claude did better in three-point shot, so I can learn it from him； Avery is a better defense than me, so I can ask him to teach me to do better in defending. We improve profiles of ourselves.
Remember that ‘It takes five’, so when we play, we can also learn to make good pass, jump phase to create chance to advance, and make assist for team mates, etc. We are all very weak in this, but we learn them quickly. I am happy to see that each team member has made a great progress.
On the sixth of February, I went to school to play basketball with some of our team mates. We said that we could meet at 1 pm, but I was doing my homework and forgot the time. When I hurried up to ride my bike to school, it was about 15 minutes late. However, I only found Claude on the basketball court. The other 3 team mates – Sky, William and Chester were even later than me. They 3 did not come until about half past 1 o’clock. Then we played with one of my classmate in middle school. On that day, my state was quite good, and I had a pretty high shot probability. Later, some other grade 10 or 11 students in Nanjing Foreign Language School came and played with us. We divided us into 3 groups; I was with 2 fat boys. We all thought that we might be the weakest group of all, but we won a lot because of my great state. Even I could not believe it. At last, I felt tired because I had lost much energy running while playing. When the others played, I sat beside the court, and shouted to them to tell them my suggestions. Am I like a coach?
Our team mates are all from my class, and our class has the most people to play basketball of all the classes in grade 10. We team mates teach together, enjoy basketball, improve our skills and learn team spirit. I hope our team will be better and better!
