    I have invented robots which improve the work of cars. My love of making things began 1  I was a kid. I really became excited about inventing after I learned about Thomas Edison.
    One day in fourth grade, our  2 gave us a project in class. We had to write to a company and learn about the products. I thought and thought. 3 I chose the Thomas A. Edison Company. Soon after, the company sent me a book about the life of Thomas Edison. How I enjoyed reading and re-reading about his  4  ! I like the recorded sound and the electric light most. The inventions were clearly printed on my brain.
    My dad noticed my interest in inventing and 5 me. He showed me how to turn my ideas into plans and then into new things. Once, I surprised my dad 6  a model plane I made. Later, we found a  7 model plane in a store. I learned that different inventors often invent similar things. It is not unusual for this to happen. I also learned that not all great ideas 8  .

Chinese has a long history. It has shaped other languages in Asia the way Latin has shaped languages in the West. With this history, will Chinese have a surprising future?

Over one billion people speak Chinese in the world — far more than any other language. It is the language of the country which is soon to have the world's largest economy (经济). Chinese people are found studying and doing business all over the world.

In fact, Chinese is definitely going to be a world language. Why is this certain? We must look at the economic and political power (政治影响力) of China, which is increasing every day. In the past, world languages have always been the languages of countries with powerful economics. Latin, French and English were important because of the power of the countries that spoke those languages.

Foreign interest in Chinese has developed very quickly together with the development of the Chinese economy. Chinese has become one of the most important and popular languages to learn.

As China develops, more and more people will want to learn about Chinese language and culture, to work and study in China, and to do business with Chinese companies. Chinese will one day become an international language.
