Bruce Lee’s Biography (5)

(This story continues on from my last essay of Bruce Lee. If you want to hear the full story in order, then start from the first story.)

After Bruce Lee had finished the movie “Game of Death,” Bruce Lee passed away. His death had a few causes. First, it seems possible that he had died because of tiredness. He got too tired and might have died because of this. Every time that he works, he gets really tired and falls to the ground unconscious. Then, he gets waked up by his friends. This is a very important part that shows evidence of his death.

Bruce Lee used too much of his muscles. This might be the cause of him being tired. Using muscles and making them work may have made someone tired. Muscles need rest and he does not rest his. All he had done was that he kept on thinking of a better way to practice his Kung Fu. His thinking also made his brain work. Too less rest resulted in tiredness.

Why did Bruce Lee have too less rest? It was because he must practice his Kung Fu. Why must he practice his Kung Fu? He must practice because he needed to make his Kung Fu better in the movies. He needed to do that because he needed to reach his goal. He worked at a rapid rate to work to his goal. This was the most important cause of why he practices his Kung Fu. He practices because of his goals. He practices because of his dreams. He practices because he needs to show the world what real Kung Fu was. His dream finally came true at the end. He completed his mission, but he never deserved to die.

Bruce Lee, the founder of Jeet Kune Do, the Kung Fu expert had passed away. God would keep him in peace in heaven. Allow the universe to meet what real Kung Fu is. The world and everything that exists, meet the real Kung Fu expert, Bruce Lee.

No one ever knew what true power is. Bruce Lee is a person who done many things that turned the world the other way around. In the following, I am about to write about Bruce lee’s biography, it is basically a time line explaining what he done that was meaningful to his objective.
Bruce Lee wanted to spread his Chinese Martial Arts all around America. Bruce Lee was born in America. After Bruce got into elementary school, he returned to Hong Kong. There were many different people in China at that time. Most England people and Japanese people were there. They all teamed up and said many bad things about Chinese People. Bruce could not stand any insults, so he fought. He had got into many fights, but he just returned home injured.
Bruce then got the idea of learning Chinese Kung Fu. After he learned for four years, he got into trouble due to a bunch of bad guys trying to search after him. The bad guys wanted to kill Bruce Lee because Bruce was a rival to those people’s son. Bruce then returned to America for he still had a place to stay if he was in danger.
After Bruce Lee got to America, he needed a job. His uncle also works in America so Bruce had a place to live. Bruce Lee then lived with his uncle until he left to Seattle. His uncle had a secret plan that would make Bruce go to American schools. After Bruce found a job, he got very confused on where he should start.

Mystery (2)

So the gangsters agreed. Suddenly, Bruce took of his jacket and wrapped it around one of them. The other came with a knife. Exactly knowing his move, Bruce grabbed his wrist and twisted, causing the criminal to fall. Finally, he jumped and kicked the gun out of the gangster’s hand right when he drew it. Nothing came out of his mouth, Bruce left the scene. They were angered, plotting for revenge.

A few days later, Bruce received a real hard mission. It was the case of the missing girl’s parents.

“Tell me girl, what happened to your parents?”

“They died.”

“How do you know that?”

“Because they are missing.”

“So this is evidence that they died? No. They might be alive.”

Nothing came out of this girl’s mouth. Bruce asked her if she has a picture of her parents.

“Please, I need a picture of your parents. Or else, how do I solve the case. Also, give me a brief description of what happened.”

“My parents look like this,” she handed Bruce the photo, “It was three thirty yesterday on a rainy weather. I was playing with my mom outside near the park when I got thirsty. I went to the car to find my dad. What made me scared was that my dad was not in the car. When I ran to my mom, she was not there either. I was terrified.”

“What had you done afterwards?”

“I searched for about two hours. But still no help came. All I got was the last family photo in the park.”

“Can I take a look at it?”

“Sure.”

The picture was nice. Many squirrels and cute animals were outside. The girl in the picture was blinking from the sun.

“Why were you blinking?”

“The sun was too bright; it made me almost become blind.”

Bruce laughed.

“ OK, perhaps you should tell me the truth before I get mad. I gave you many chances to admit it.”
“How did you know?”

It was obvious how Bruce knew it. Do you know why?

Epilogue
The police arrived and cleared the field. Her parents were found. Just a small lie could cause such a problem. Never lie in your life.

Mystery (1)

Michael Liu and Bruce Lee walked down the street. They were thinking about the person who came earlier this day. That person told them he needs some help on fighting the gangsters down the street, or else he would be doomed. That should be police work, but since that man was Bruce Lee’s friend, he decided to help.
“The gangsters should have guns.”
“Indeed.”
“We need to prepare guns or knives to save ourselves and solve the problem.”
“Wrong. You done good job thinking, but you have not thought about what they would think of us. If we have guns, then they would fight with us. Instead, if you bring no weapon, they only want to torture you, but not kill you. They use you as an entertainment.”
“So what should we do? Just follow me, watch and learn. You can bring a gun in case you are chicken. ”
“Fine, Fine, I am chicken, I am terrified.
Bruce met the gangsters down the street. Those geeks noticed him. They found out he was a problem. They took out their guns and aimed at his heart.
“Hey! Look who we have here.”
“Put the gun down. If you have the guts to do it.”
They listened and done as they were told, since most of the gangsters were mad to get into a fight.
“Great! I put my gun down. I am ready to kick your butt!”
Bruce was mad at them for saying this, but he stayed calm. Michael looked afraid. He was afraid Bruce would fail. Bruce’s eyes were not focused on the gangsters, but on the surroundings. He noticed they all had jewelry with them. One of them had a knife. One of them had a gun.
Bruce spoke: “If you are not chicken, then fight one on one!”
So the gangsters agreed. Suddenly, Bruce took of his jacket and wrapped it around one of them. The other came with a knife, breaking the promise. Exactly knowing his move, Bruce grabbed his wrist and twisted, causing the criminal to fall. Finally, he jumped and kicked the gun out of the gangster’s hand right when he drew it. Nothing came out of his mouth, Bruce left the scene. They were angered, plotting for revenge.

Being a Student is a Joy and Pain

As people grow up, students like me got from liking to go to school from hating to go to school, but I have a feeling of  not skipping it, because, by the time you get back you have to catch up with your classmate. Now, just think that I am not a very intelligent and lazy student, but want to stay on the same track as my other classmate, how can I possibly skip school? And also, hating to go to school dose not necessary means that I will skip it. But if I want to skip it, I can’t, because, due to my laziness I don’t want to do ‘make up works’ like making my homework up because that day I skipped that class. No, I would rather ‘suffer’ in school than making up works and have to keep on track with the others while I already can barely follow them.  So skipping classes or school is the worst thing I hated it. Now my reflection is about being a student is a joy and pain, why? The joy of mine in every school day is to get to hang out with my best friends. Instead of staying home and play computers, I rather stay in school and hang out with my friends, and you won’t miss anything on the classes. But the pain of mine is, as the grade of mine went up, my teacher started to asking for more homework each day, and more essays to type. These things do gave me a lot of pain, but think about it, you can finish it and grade it by the teacher and gain the sense of achievement. Another things is that, I rather do more work  just to full-fill my  thirst of  sense of achievement, and also  to prove myself that I am working hard instead of fooling around all day. So the consequence of that is I cannot afford that works are not done, even more funny is, I can’t sleep without completing all my work!


2006 World Cup

Which soccer team was strongest in 2006 world cup? Some people say thatItalywas strongest because it won. But, in fact, it was not. They won only because they cheated. They were shameful.

For example, in the world cup final,France was Italy’s opponent. Zidane was the best member of France. So the Italian team tried to oust him. First they asked a defender, Materazzi, to annoy him. When they were playing the game, Materazzi actually held Zidane from his back. And when Zidane tried to go away, Materazzi held his clothes and did not let him go. This action is not acceptable in soccer game. Unfortunately, the referee did not notice it.

Secondly, Materazzi said bad words to Zidane. He said bad things about his country and his family. Zidane tried to ignore it, but he kept saying it over and over. Later, Materazzi admitted, “’I held his shirt for a few seconds only…I replied with an insult, that’s true.” However the referee did not come and punish him. So Italy successfully made Zidane angry.

Finally, Zidane used his head to hit Materazzi, which he deserved. Then the referee came and ousted Zidane, as Italy wished. Italy team is evil. They were just lucky because the referee did not notice what happened at first.

Although the evil Italy won at last, they should feel shameful of what they did to Zidane. The final score was 5-3. If they did not cheat, I think they would probably lose.


Advantages and Disadvantages of Different Types of Bridges

       A bridge is a construction that is usually across a river. A bridge can usually support a very heavy weight. So people, cars, and trains can transport to the other riverside by the bridge. There are many types of bridges, including Lattice, Whipple, and Pratt. They each have their own advantages and disadvantages.

       A pratt truss includes vertical members and diagonals that slope down towards the center. It looks like many “N”s on the bridge. This type of bridge was invented in 1844 by Thomas and Caleb Pratt. It is efficient because the longer diagonal members are in tension and the shorter vertical members are in compression. The disadvantage is that this kind of bridge is very expensive.

A lattice bridge, also known as Town’s lattice truss, is a form of truss bridge that uses a large number of small and closely spaced diagonal elements that form a lattice. It was invented by Town in 1820. This type of bridge has the advantage of not requiring high labor skills nor much metal. But this kind of bridge requires a large amount of money. It is way too expensive.

A whipple is a truss bridge that has many complicated structures. It is a combination of a pratt bridge and a lattice bridge. The main characteristic of a whipple truss is that the tension members are elongated, usually thin, at a shallow angle and cross two or more bays some straight lines. The advantage is that this type of bridge is very reliable. But it is very difficult to build because it is too complicated.

These types of bridge all have their own advantage and disadvantage. But I like pratt truss the best. It is not as complicated as others. And it is more useful.


Bruce Lee in Evil Death’s Prison

Bruce Lee was a person who is really good at kung fu. He was a thirty year old person. He had muscles all over his body. He was a really smart person in both fighting and when he was at school. He had brown eyebrows with black eyes. One day, an evil person called Death appeared. He made people do work, and rules everyone. He had the power over the weak, and he never took it easy. He decided to start putting people in prison for fun. A few days later, he decided to test it. He found a girl and put her in the prison. One day, Bruce was jogging for his kung fu practice. Death saw him and put him in. Bruce was mad at this. He decided to break out of prison.

Bruce broke out of his chains with his nunchakus. Death was dumb enough to leave Bruce with his weapon. Bruce broke out just as the nearest two guards came in. They both had those electronic spark metallic clubs. The first guard tried to hit Bruce. The guard missed as Bruce ducked. Instead of hitting Bruce, it hit the guard behind him. Just then, Bruce stood up and kicked the other guard. He ran off to look at more people being sent in. He sneaked behind the guards and hit them both. He let everyone free. Bruce ran for the exit. Suddenly an alarm rang.

Twenty or something guards started attacking Bruce. He dodged a lot of attacks, but at last got sparkled by one of the clubs. Bruce whipped out his nunchakus. He started showing off to let the guards look amazed. Right when two of the guards were not focused, he let out a fast whip into the guards’ head. Two down, eighteen to go. Bruce smashed, kicked and punched with his fist and his nunchakus. All of the guards were scared and ran away. Death then came inside. Bruce got ready to fight. Death smashed Bruce but missed and hit the flower pot. The pot broke due to Death’s strong fist. Death then started whipping a sword and slashed Bruce’s body. It was not a huge scratch, but a cut like the ones in paper cuts. It hurts a lot. Death stroked again as Bruce needed to recover. This time, it went sideways and was another paper cut. Hitler took out his metal claws weapon and started slashing. Bruce took a pot and threw it on Death’s head. While Death tried to recover, Bruce took out his nunchakus. They fought and fought. At the end, Bruce made a flying kick killing Hitler. Suddenly, a bunch of other bad guys came in with guns.

“Woo da!…”
