China’s “Little People’s Kingdom” is a theme park，where little people dance and sing in fairytale costumes，drawing both curious groups and criticism.The theme park，near Kunming City in Yunnan Province，employs 108 dwarfs from across the country，who gather on an artificial hillside twice a day to dance and sing for tourists.And all pretend to live in a tiny hilltop village.
The guests can watch shows like comedies，group dance and acrobatics.The show’s centerpiece，a funny performance of SwanLake，sees performers dressed in special pink costumes and pretending to be little swans.“The first time I performed it(SwanLake)I felt a bit embarrassed.I had never worn a skirt like that before.But later，once I got used to it，I found I could do it very well，” said Chen Ruan,21，from Hunan Province who joined the park when it opened.
For many of the employees，the park offers a rare opportunity to find work.As unlikely as it seems for men and women doing daily funny performances of SwanLake，they think that it feels good to live in dormitories that look like caves while living with people with similar experiences.In addition，the life facilities in the park are made according to their special needs.Besides，performers in the park earn 2,000 yuan a month，around twice the salary of a high school graduate.
The founder of the park，Chen Mingjing，made his fortune by producing electronics and investing，but said he had always wanted to help the disadvantaged groups in the community.People，like human right activists for the disabled，think that such a park only encourages the discrimination against little people.The only requirement for participants to be employed at the theme park is to be shorter than 51 inches and be able to take care of themselves in daily life.The youngest employee is 18，and the oldest 48.

If you want to succeed in life，you need to express the proper body language，with or without having to say anything else.You will certainly notice a whole new reaction from people if you use the power of body language.
Relax your shoulders，keep your hands at your sides(never inside your pockets) and breathe slowly.Have a warm，welcoming facial expression as if you look forward to communicating. Depending on the situation，you may smile when appropriate.
Face the other person or your audience and keep eye contact as much as possible throughout the talk.Nodding and tilting(倾斜) your head closer can show that you are listening.
Do not fold(交叉) your arms，look down at the floor or put your hands in your pockets.These can show that you are uninterested.If you have any comments，you can show them in negative but respectful ways like raising your eyebrows.
A lot of your body language can show how confident，interested，bored，angry or nervous you are.Keeping your head up throughout the entire conversation can show that you are very much into the conversation at hand.
You may feel free to use a few hand gestures to emphasize(强调) a point.If you’re enumerating things，it’s better to use each of your fingers as you mention each item to help your audience keep track.
Pacing will help you create more ground if you have a larger crowd to communicate with.It will also show confidence on your part as you think of more things to say.
Be very careful when touching the other person since you are crossing the boundaries(界限) of body language through actual contact.Remember that in body language，it is your body that does the talking for you.

HOW TO READ A POEM
There’s really only one reason why poetry has gotten a reputation for being so “difficult”： It demands your full attention. 36
Follow Your Ears.It’s okay to ask “What does it mean？” when you are reading a poem.But it’s even better to ask “How does it sound？” 37 Even if you can’t understand a single thing about a poem’s “subject” or “theme”， you can always say something—anything—about the sound of the words.
38 OK，we’re not saying you have to shout it from the rooftops.If you’re embarrassed and want to lock yourself in the attic(阁楼) and read the poem in the quietest whisper，go ahead.But reading aloud is really an effective way to understand a poem，because reading even part of it aloud can totally change your perspective on how it works.
Read in Different Places.Just like music，the experience of poetry changes depending on your mood and the environment.Read in as many different places as possible：at the beach，on a mountain，in the subway. 39
Think like a Poet.Here’s a fun exercise.Go through the poem one line at a time，covering up the next line with your hand so you can’t see it.Put yourself in the poet’s shoes： 40 If you start to think like this，you’ll be able to appreciate all the different choices that go into making a poem.
A. Be Patient.
B. Read It Aloud.
C. If all else fails，treat it like a song.
D. If I had to write a line to come after this line，what would I put
E. So if you don’t get it，set the poem aside and come back to it later.
F. Sometimes all it takes is a change of scenery for a poem to really come alive.
G. Here is a short list of tips that will make poems reading more enjoyable.
