4.Importance of Science News

Scientific news tells us whats happening around the world, many of them would affect human's life. It also increases your knowledge of science. I read this article about hungry bears that lives in the west mountains. They're hungry because of the climate change. It causes to start attacking humans. It makes the civilization, or villages on the mountains dangerous. It'll also makes the people harder to live. Scientific news gives information that really helps people.

3.Are Non-Carbon Based Life Possible?

I think it could be, and highly possible. Maybe almost all organisms are made by carbons, carbons is the best element to form lifes. Somepeople believed in silicon-based life forms, and electromagnetic-based life forms. I wonder what creature can  they create with those elements. I believe nothing its impossible, and maybe alien doesn't need carbon either. Im guessing animals like starfish, jellyfish, and organisms like that wouldn't require carbons, but thats just my guess. Carbon is something important along most living organisms, because when animals dies the body breaks down, and creates something called "carbon dioxide"

2.Should the U.S. Switch to Metric System?

My answer would be yes. Several years ago NASA rocket failed cause of the mistake on the measurements. The first reason that I think the U.S. should be using metric system, is that it makes everything so much easier to understand. The metric system changes the unit, but doesn't change the number only the unit of the number by adding a 0 or subtracting 0. Example:14554cm equals to 145540mm. Another reason why i think U.S. should be using the metric system is cause its international, any country can use it easily for communications on information and data.

1.Goals for the Year

My first goal for the year is to pass all my classes with an A. I'll always turn in my homework on time, and use more time studying on weekends. My second goal for the year is to learn how to write better in Chinese. I came to U.S. when i was ten, so i haven't write in Chinese for 4-5 years. My third goal is to learn more English words and speak better, so people could understand me better.
