Tourism in China

Recent years have seen a tendency in China that tourism is growing faster. According to a recent survey made by some experts, about 47% urban residents travel regularly, and 28% rural residents also make their tour across the country. The survey also shows that more people are interested in tourism, and will join the army in the future.

Facing this tendency, we can’t help exploring some underlying factors that are responsible. In the very first place, with the policy of reform and opening up, Chinese people’s living standard has been greatly improved, and therefore, most of them can afford to travel around. What’s more, it is believed that people now take a more positive attitude to tourism, and regard it as a life style. In addition, tourism facilities are becoming better and better. For example, transportation develops fast, and many scenic spots are available now.

中国旅游

最近几年，在中国的趋势，旅游业增长较快。根据最近的一项调查显示一些专家认为，约47%城镇居民定期作出旅行，28%的农村居民，也使他们的全国巡演。该调查还显示，更多的人在旅游有兴趣，并会在将来加入。

面对这一趋势，我们不能不说是负责任的开发一些潜在因素。在第一个地方，随着改革开放政策，对中国人民的生活水平有了很大提高，因此，他们大多数都不能周游。更重要的是，它相信，人们现在更积极的态度，旅游业，把它作为一种生活方式。此外，旅游设施正在变得越来越好。例如，交通运输发展迅速，许多景点都已经上市。

The Great Wall is famous as the one of the miracles in the history, it attracts the people from all around the world to witness its greatess. But according to the research, the Great Wall is missing gradually, for it suffers the damage from both nature and human being. As the environment is polluted, the acid rain often comes and destroys the buildings in the long run. What’s more, the increasing number of tourists step on the bricks, which will damage the building. More unpolited behaviors have been reported, such as people like to write down some words to remember their trip here, which disfigures the appearance of this great site. When the Great Wall disappears some day, it is the greatest pity, we are no longer have the chance to appreciate its grandness. To save this miracle, we need to behavior ourselves and protect the environment.

长城是历史上一个著名奇迹,它吸引了来自世界各地的人去见证。但根据研究,长城正在逐渐消失,因为受到来自自然和人类造成的损害。随着环境受到污染,经常下酸雨，长期破坏建筑物。而且,越来越多的游客踏在砖上,这会损害建筑。越来越多不礼貌的行为被报道出来,比如人们喜欢写一些词来纪念他们的旅行,这会让长城的外观变形。长城有一天消失了,这是最大的遗憾,我们不再有机会去欣赏它的雄壮。为了拯救这个奇迹,我们需要我们约束,保护环境。

if you want to understand adversity, take two identical acorns from the same oak tree and plant them in two different locations. plant the first in the middle of a dense forest, and the other on a hill by itself.

要是你想理解什么是逆境，就去拿两颗从同一棵树上摘下来年龄相同的橡树果，并且把它们种到不同的地方。第一颗种在浓密的树林当中，而另外一颗则单独种在一座山上。

heres what will happen. the oak standing on a hillside is exposed to every storm and gale. as a result its roots plunge deep into the earth and spread in every direction, even wrapping themselves around giant boulders. at times it may seem the tree isnt growing fast enough—but the growth is happening underground. its as if the roots know they must ported the tree from the threatening elements.

事情的结果便是这样。那颗长在山上的橡树经历了大风大雨，结果它的根深深地扎进了泥土中间，并不断向四周扩张，甚至把自己置身于巨大的石块当中。有时它可能看起来长的不是很快，但这时它却在地下悄悄生长着，好像它的根知道自己必须快速生长来保护树木免受自然危害的影响。

If you ask someone that do they often go to library, I think they will

answer you with no, the reason I am saying this because of the development of

ebook. Many years ago, without computer, the only way to check the information

that you need is from paper books, it means you need to go to the book shop or

the library, while with the development of the Internet, people have access to

the information very easily, you only need to click on the computer, then what

you look for is in front of you. Ebook is a very popular form for reading,

people can find what they want to read in the computer, like the novel story,

then download. It is so convenient and fast, it can save a lot of time, we don’t

need to go to the library if we are busy. Ebook is a good way for reading.

参考翻译

如果你问一些人他们是否经常去图书馆，我觉得他们会回答不，我这样说的理由是因为电子书的发展。很多年前没有电脑，你想要核查你所需要的信息，唯一的方法就是去找纸质书，这意味着你需要去书店或者图书馆，然而随着电脑的发展，人们能很轻易得到信息，你只需要点击电脑，然后你所寻找的就会在你眼前。电子书是一种很受欢迎的阅读方式，人们可以在电脑上找到他们想要阅读的，比如小说，然后下载。这很方便快捷，能够省时，我们不需要去图书馆，如果我们很忙的话。电子书是阅读的好方式。

古之立大志者，不惟有超世之才，亦必有坚忍不拔之志。

――苏轼

小草拥有自信得以焕发蓬勃生机;雄鹰拥有自信得以展翅翱翔天际;小溪拥有自信得以奔腾汇进海洋……而我努力用自信书写人生的斑斓……

伴着静谧的夜色，我倚在窗前。回想着连连的考试失利，一种难以名状的酸楚涌上心头。我倦怠地闭上双眸……

朦胧中，我看到一个天使在向我缓缓走来，嘴角浮现一丝浅浅的笑，雪白色的裙角微微扬起。她离我那么近，又似乎遥不可及……

“你为何愁眉苦脸呢?我可以帮助你吗?”

“我感到我很笨，什么都学不会，总是一次次失败。”我伤心地回答。

“你可能得了‘忧忧症’，这里有检验单，你可以自查。”说着，一张菱形的蓝色纸片飘到我的眼前。

“我为什么要相信你?我怎么会得‘忧忧症’呢”但还是不由自主地拿过那张所谓的“检验单”。为了排解内心的疑虑，我认真地做了回答：

问题1：你是否会为了爬山中的一次意外的严重受伤而永远不再去爬山?

分析：俗话说：“一朝被蛇咬，十年怕井绳。”我又何必再去冒险呢?……不行!一次意外算得了什么?不经风雨洗礼怎能品味成功的喜悦?半途而废不是最令人痛恨吗?我要做一个自信的人，用自信，用毅力去领略山顶的美景，成功的喜悦!

回答：我用全部力量认真写下了两个大字――不会!

问题2：你是否会为了一次发言的失误受到嘲笑而不再在众人面前发表见解?

分析：或许，我根本不是一个人才，又何必去展示自己，结果换来嘲讽呢?……不可以!一次失败算得了什么?哪一个成才者没有辛酸往事呢?这不正锻炼了我的意志，使我更加完善吗?我要做一个自信的人，让嘲讽与辛酸化作流云随风远去，又留下我成长的足迹……

回答：我怀着坚定的信念努力写下三个大字――绝不会!

问题3：你是否会为了一次考试的挫败而心烦意乱，迷失方向?

分析：一个人怎么能一生优秀呢?我已“优秀”了那么多次，就随它去吧，付出也不一定就会成功……不能够!一次挫败算得了什么?心态是成功最重要的资本。我若满足于现状，不思进取，如何去采撷成功的花朵?我要做一个自信的人，让失败成为奠定成功的基石，用自信铸就辉煌!

回答：我用明朗的心态清晰写下四个大字――永远不会!

答完这些，它又缓缓飘回天使的手中，望着天使微笑的脸颊，我心已明了，“忧忧症”的疑虑不再困扰我。我幸福的笑了……

猛然间，我醒来，天空明镜如洗滑过一丝浮云的痕迹;阳光，灿烂依旧，万丈余辉洒向世间。我整装前行，用自信去书写明日的灿烂，人生的辉煌……

I have a cat named mimi. Its hair is as white as snow. I often play games with it. It amuses me a lot and I treat it as a little friend. Every morning, I would say goodbye to it before I go to school and mimi would wave its front-legs to me. It brings me a lot of pleasure. But it takes time and costs money to keep the cat. My parents and I spend much time taking care of it, feeding it and cleaning it. We have to clean the house from time to time, or the cat will make them dirty and smelly.

我有一只猫，名叫咪。它的毛像雪一样白，我经常和它一起玩。它使我很开心，我也把它当小朋友一样对待。每天早上，我去上学之前都会跟它说再见，它也人向我晃晃前爪。它给我带来了很多快乐。但是，养猫是要花费时间和金钱的。我父母和我花费很多时间照看它，喂它饭，给它洗澡。我们得经常打扫房间，否则，猫就会把屋子弄得又脏又难闻。

我们赞赏许多美德：勇毅、勤奋、坦诚、谦逊。闪烁这种种美德光辉的行为都不止一次让我们青春的热血沸腾。但若静心思忖，“最赞赏同学什么品质”?我们的确会工工整整地写上“乐于助人”四个大字。

是啊，当我们还在妈妈怀抱的时候，就谙熟了司马光砸开水缸救助同伴的故事。我们羡慕那位古代少年的机智，更赞赏他助人的美德。这之后，从金庸笔下“路见不平，拔刀相助”的胡斐大侠，到《悲惨世界》里悲天悯人的米里哀主教，都熏陶着我们纯真的心灵。这其中，最强烈感召我们的当然还是平凡而伟大的雷锋：“哦，必须把赶路的大嫂护送到家，现在是夜深、雨大、路远、泥泞!”《雷锋之歌》的节奏敲击着我们成长的步点。我们形成了一种理性的信念：“助人为乐”是人类文明绽放出的灿烂花朵，“助人为乐”是人类社会不可或缺的基石。

不是吗?当攀登香炉峰的“第二台阶”时，你多么需要同学有力的手拉上一把;当雨夜淋在汽车站时，你多么渴望与同学共同撑开一柄小小的折伞;当几何图形已被涂抹成零乱的“蜘蛛网”时，你多么切盼同学轻轻擦掉纷乱的笔道，再准;确填画上清晰的辅助线。正是无数的生活经验，将“乐于助人”推上了我们心中美德的第一位。

但是，面对“别人碰上麻烦事”的提问，不少青少年却抛弃了“乐于助人”，而选择了“悄悄走开”。是的，在生活实际的答卷上也有许多同样的选择。我曾看到，一个路人滑倒在寒风冰雪里，放学的同学笑得前仰后合却无一人上前搀扶;我还曾读到，流氓闻人某校女生宿舍施暴，隔壁八名男生，一个个屏气敛声，把头缩进棉被……可悲啊，为什么我们的知与行如此背离?今天，面对反差巨大的两份调查，我不禁再次深思：为什么我们最赞赏的品质，在需要自己身体力行时，却缩裹进了明哲保身的硬壳，如寒风冰雪，没有半点青春的热度?

是的，可能你也曾滑倒在地领受过他人的嘲谑，可能你自觉敌不过凶横的暴徒;任何冷漠总可以找到堂皇的理由。但这些理由的本质却是卑劣。因为，人类文明的灿烂花朵就从这里凋败，人类社会的基石就从这里销蚀。

同学们，种种美德点燃着我们青春的热血，从司马光到雷锋的榜样也应是我们选择的准绳。人类文明将在我们手中发扬光大，让我们把“乐于助人”四个大字庄严地写进自己人生的答卷。

My brother is one of my most familiar person, he is 2 years old this year, have one meter two child, chubby face on a pair of big round eyes, sparkly, but god! Particularly lovely, everyone called him qiqi.

One day, mom went out to buy food, call me at home looking at brother, I have accepted the "glory" task.

我的弟弟是我最熟悉的人之一，他今年2岁，有一米二的个子，胖嘟嘟的脸蛋上长着一双圆溜溜的大眼睛，忽闪忽闪的，可有神了!特别可爱，大家都叫他奇奇。

有一次，妈妈出去买菜，叫我在家看着弟弟，我接受了这个“光荣”的任务。

一开始，弟弟吵吵闹闹的嚷嚷着要吃薯片，我说：“妈妈说薯片没营养，不能吃”。弟弟噘着小嘴，用眼睛撇着我说：“哥哥撒慌，你都吃了，为什么我不能吃!”没办法，只好给他吃薯片。

过了一会，他又开始吵了，吵的我都要后耳朵，我灵机一动，一个好点子从脑子里冒出来，“给他放动画片!”我给他放了《猫和老鼠》，没想到他一下子就安静下来了，真是一物降一物!别提我心里有多得意了，看到《猫和老鼠》那有趣的画面，让我们时不时的会捧腹大笑。

这时侯，妈妈回来了，问我弟弟乖不乖，弟弟抢着说：“我和哥哥都乖!”妈妈夸我长大了能照顾弟弟了，我心里可高兴了。

我喜欢我的小弟弟。

Once， when I was a teenager， my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus. Finally， there was only one family between us and the ticket counter.

This family made a big impression on me. There were eight children， all probably under the age of 12. You could tell they didnt have a lot of money.

Their clothes were not expensive， but they were clean. The children were well-behaved， all of them standing in line， two-by-two behind their parents， holding hands. They were excitedly jabbering about the clowns， elephants， and other acts they would see that night.

One could sense they had never been to the circus before. It promised to be a highlight of their young lives. The father and mother were at the head of the pack， standing proud as could be.

The mother was holding her husbands hand， looking up at him as if to say， "Youre my knight in shining armor."

He was smiling and basking in pride， looking back at her as if to reply， "You got that right."

The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He proudly responded， "Please let me buy eight childrens tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus."

The ticket lady quoted the price. The mans wife let go of his hand， her head dropped， and his lip began to quiver. The father leaned a little closer and asked， "How much did you say?"

The ticket lady again quoted the price. The man didnt have enough money.

How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight kids that he didn‘t have enough money to take them to the circus? Seeing what was going on， my dad put his hand in his pocket， pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground. (We were not wealthy in any sense of the word!)

We need to follow all kinds of public rules, such as the manner rules and

the traffic regulation. If we break the rules, then all the work will be out of

order and everybody will suffer the loss. But few people just ignore the rules

and waste other people’s time and money.

Chinese high speed train has won many praise from foreign people. The

trains always start off as the timetable and reach the destination on time. High

speed train is popular by the public by its speed and punctuality, but what if

someone breaks the traffic rule? Recently, a video got popular on the Internet.

A woman was stuck in the door of high speed train and the staffs tried to stop

her but failed. She said her husband was on the way and she wanted the train to

start off later. How ridiculous it was. How could she let all the passengers to

wait for her. Everybody’s time is precious.

Though the woman apologized after the policemen’s education, what she did

discomforts the public. The way she acted wasted the public’s time. It is our

duty to follow rules and keep the public in order.

重点中学的校门口永远是个充满赞叹与荣誉的地方。校门边挂着各种各样象征地位与荣誉的牌子，门口上空的位置也总不会空着，今天是某某获得省级某某比赛一等奖，明天又是某某获得全国某某比赛一等奖。正是因为这些种种的荣誉，全省各地的学子都慕名而来。有的人拼了命的学呀学，就为了来这所重点学校。

转眼有是一年的招生时期，校门口摆出了一个大牌子，上面写满了这所学校中学生以及老师获得的荣誉。很多路人走过，都会忍不住上前看看，走时都会轻轻赞叹几声。

一个傍晚，太阳快落山了，可是天却还很亮。夕阳照射在校门口哪个大牌子上，发出红色的亮光，很耀眼。行人都走得很快，因为快到晚饭的时间了，谁都不想委屈自己的肚子。因此，没有人会在意此时校门口那块闪着红光的牌子，都是匆匆忙忙地走过。这时，一个学生模样的女孩静静地走到那块牌子前，很认真地看了起来。她的个子不是很高，背着一个书包，看上去沉甸甸的，应该是装了很多书。今天是双休日，她一定是在外面补了课。唉，也难怪，现在的学生，为了考高分，在外面报了一大堆补习班。她的头发很短，有点向男生们剪的平头。一般的女生很少剪这种头发的，也许是因为她怕梳头发耽误了学习，于是把一头长发剪了。她的眼睛本来很漂亮，可是鼻梁上的眼睛让她看起来有点木讷，镜片挺厚，度数应该不浅，应该是挑灯夜读让她的眼睛度数渐渐变深。

她很认真地看着牌子上写的每一个字，有时会轻轻笑一下，或者发出轻轻地赞叹。当她把牌子上的内容全部收入眼底后，她轻轻地闭了一下眼。然后，她抬起手，用手指在牌子上方那块写有学校名称的地方小心的摩擦。然后她笑了，笑容干净而明亮。她把手移开，小声地说了声：“我会来这的。”说完后，她走了，在落日的余晖下，她的背影被拉得很长，因此在走了一段距离后，她的影子还停留在校门口。

我站在校门口，静静地看着这一幕，忽然想起我的初中岁月，以及我在暖黄色灯光下度过的一个又一个夜晚；想起当时我站在这同样的校门口时心中的波涛汹涌；想起当时我站在校门口，看着校内一切时的心驰神往……

而现在，这一切都氤氲成水气，早已模糊不清，却在今天，在这同样的校门口，我的记忆开始复苏。

There is an old Chinese saying: Top students come from strict teachers.

Perhaps affected by this saying for a long time, we believe it right. However,

as time flies, lots of things have changed. Therefore, I am eager to discuss

what relation is the best between teachers and students.A teacher can treat a

student in two ways .One is strict, and the other is friendly. Most teachers

prefer the first way.To start with, we certainly have to admit that strictness

is very effective, especially to the naughty pupils.

As pupils we aren’t able to control ourselves well or fix our attention on

one thing for a long time. We do most things because they are interesting or we

feel like doing. We are always looking out of the window in class. Sometimes, we

get to play games and forget our homework. On this occasion, strictness is a

must. It not only forces us to do the right thing, but also helps us develop a

good learning habit, which is of great importance during our whole life .In

other words, it is the first step to success.Still, everything has two sides.

Its weak points are very obvious. You see, there’re top students in a class,

where average students make up the majority. Then teachers’ orders or

suggestions are for the majority, not for top students. However, top students

always have their own study plans and prefer special homework, so orders usually

won’t take great effect on them.

Maybe you have thought out that teachers can give orders only to the

majority and set some freedom to top students. However, it’s impossible .For a

whole class, teachers couldn’t give order to part of the class, for the majority

would question why they needn’t do such work, but we need? It would be probable

that they think teachers treat them not equally, and will not obey teachers’

orders any more. This is a difficulty for teachers.It also has another

disadvantage——the communication problem .Since teachers are strict, we never

tell teachers our personal affairs or secrets. Mostly we just tell them to our

friends, but as students too, they couldn’t help to solve our problem, such as

puppy love, communication problems or study problems .Not being solved

completely, they always disturb us, influencing our daily life and study. I’m

sure that you think that making friends with teachers can solve the problem, and

you are eager to do so as well. But if we do so, new problems will come out .You

see, an adult couldnt control himself well at times, let alone us students.

However if teachers are our friends, I doubt whether their orders will take

effect any more .You see, have we ever treated our friends’ orders as orders? We

think they’re only jokes. This is another difficulty for teachers.Additionally,

our parents have the same problem. Yes, we need to be friends, but not complete

friends. We need to keep a certain distance, making us communicate well and

willing to take your orders. I remember a story.One day, a lady had her rest

room decorated. And a skilled worker was bricking up the wall. Seeing large

cracks between the bricks, she questioned why. The worker told her after this

summer, the bricks would become bigger, and those cracks would disappear.That is

not only decoration, but also communication. The principle is the same.

I am an ordinary girl. Learning in general, people also generally. But I have extraordinary thing, this kind of thing everyone has, but this kind of thing everyone is different, have such things -- friendship. I have two good friends, they callXXX, XXX. They are my good sister, they gave me a lot of happy and moved. They in my sad comfort me, when I am happy happy together with me. A lot of fun in our body.

My Experience In Examination

In my opinion, examinations are one of the important activities in school life. I have gone through all sorts of examinations since my primary school. I have tasted the flavor of happiness and sadness.

Before examinations I always have a hard time and dont know what to do.During examinations I feel nervous and sometimes my mind becomes blank Only after examinations does the world seem to be bright again and am I brimming with vigor. We often complain that our teachers make trouble for us on purpose. But it is not true. The fact is that examinations are just a way to-help us do better in our study.( 110 words)

This winter is freezing cold. I didn’t have any desire to go out for play.

I always stayed at home. Actually, most of the time I was in my bed. When I felt

anxious for staying inside too long, I will go near the window to wach the

children building snowman or throwing snowballs. It seemed very interesting. But

I just didn’t want to go out. Later my mother found that I was so lazy. Then she

forced me to go out. Since my mother said, I have no excuse to reject. My mother

is right. Though the outside was icy, it’s fantastic. Everything smells fresh.

Since then, I went outside everyday, and then did my homework and felt full of

energy. The holiday ended very soon. It was a lazy holiday.

导语：《茶花女》故事讲述了一个青年人与巴黎上流社会一位交际花曲折凄婉的爱情故事。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

I read the Chinese version of “Camille” a few years ago. At that time I was deeply moved by the main character Marguerite Gautier. “Camille” or “The Lady of the Camellias” by Alexandre Dumas, fils, is the story of Marguerite Gautier, a young courtesan, or kept woman, in Paris in the mid 1800s, and how she falls in love with a young man, Armand Duval, and then tries to escape from her questionable past. Unfortunately, it comes back to haunt her and she ends up returning to that life and dies painfully and alone, but with the knowledge that she was a noble woman at heart. When I first began to read the book, I did not care for Marguerite or her attitude or lifestyle, but as I got further into the narrative, I realized that her saucy attitude was a front to cover the lonely woman that she really was. She felt used, abused and unloved, until the gentle Armand Duval came into her life and showed her that he loved her as a person and not for what she could do for him. It must have taken great courage for Marguerite to leave the life she had lived for so long, knowing all along that it was probably too good to be true and would not last indefinitely. And it also showed that Marguerite really loved Armand Duval for she could even change herself for him.

However, happiness didn’t last for long. When M. Duval, Armands father, came to her, pleading for her to leave Armand to save both Armands reputation and that of his younger innocent sister, Marguerite saw a way to become pure of heart, if not in body. She felt that it was her duty, because she loved Armand so much, to do this even though it meant giving up her own happiness and hurting Armand temporarily. She reluctantly returned to her former life, knowing that some day Armand would forgive her. Sadly, she died in debt and basically alone, except for her one female friend, Julie Duprat, who helped her during her illness. She had her journal sent to Armand after her death, explaining why she had made the choices she had. I think Dumass last few lines about Marguerite being the exception, not the rule were quite true, and I also agreed with his view that while her lifestyle could not be condoned, we as a society assume that all of these type of women are cold and heartless, while this may not always be the case. A person can make the wrong choices in life when they are young, and try to redeem themselves, but sometimes past situations prevent them from changing their lives, even though they desperately wish to do so. This applies to both men and women in many different types of circumstances: involvement in crime; drug or alcohol abuse; gambling; prostitution; financial problems; poor marriage choices; etc. And this is the fact, which exists in the whole society.

As far as the other characters in the book, I think Marguerite was right in saying that no one truly cared about her, but only wanted something from her, the only exceptions being Armand and Julie Duprat. Of course, the Comte de G. and Comte de N. wanted her body and appearance. The Duke needed to “wake up and smell the coffee” and realize that she could never replace his dead daughter. If he truly cared, he could have helped her leave her lifestyle without “keeping” her himself. And lastly, Prudence was a blood-sucking leech who used Marguerite almost worse than the men. I also think she was jealous of the fact that Marguerite had so much more courage than herself and someone truly loved her.

Last morning, when tiding my bookshelf, I took this book out of the shelf, and a dried flower flew away from the book. It was pale blue, very transparent, with thin fine veins. a dried flower flew away from the book. It was pale blue, very transparent, with thin fine veins. I held it against the morning light and blew on it. The soft breeze carried it away. Camille is just like the camellia, she could never escape from the destiny of withering. But it wasn’t her fault; it’s because of the evil of Capitalism and the hideousness of that society.

Suddenly, I remembered a saying: “Women are like the flowers”. Those pretty women are like those beautiful flowers; their delicate beauty makes people feel they are the miracle of life. However, even the God envies their beauty. It seems that beautiful women always have tragic endings. As we are normal persons, even we can see the hideousness of humanity that results in their fate of withering, we can at most ask quietly in our hearts: Where have those beautiful flowers gone? Where have they gone?

Summer can be very hot in southern taibei where the temperature usually goes up to 32"C or more. Because of the heat it is a trying experience to go to school or do anything else in a place that is not air-conditioned. Also because of this I stay at home most of the time during the summer vacation and only occasionally go to the beach to plunge myself into the cool water as a way to keep my body less sticky. Actually I like swimming and think nothing is more refreshing than a swim. In the summer vacation that has just ended I went swimming many times with my classmates and we all had a good time. This summer vacation, however, was not spent entirely in seeking fun. As a second-year senior student I had to prepare myself for the college entrance examinations that were only a year away. In other words, I must find time to study, too. So I divided my time between work and play during the summer vacation and derived much benefit from this arrangement.

I spent this summer vacation in quite a different way. I used to run about every day in previous summer vacations, but this summer vacation I simply could not afford to do so. I would soon be in the last year of my high-school education and would after graduation be up against the college entrance examinations. Though those examinations were still a year away, I had to start early to make myself well prepared by reviewing all those things I had learned at school and this summer vacation was the ideal time for me to do this. At first I was rather dismayed at the thought of this, but later I thought it was better this way because by working hard this summer I could count on endless happy summers to come. With this in mind I then set to work like anything and only occasionally went out for a change or did some physical. I was not at all bored by this kind of life, for I was sustained by a hope.

i do the normal routine, eat dinner, clean the house, write-the usual stuff. and then i lay down hoping to fall asleep quickly so my new day will hurry up and arrive. a new day with a brand new sun. but as i lay there and wait for the world to turn half way around, i think about her. and sometimes i smile, and sometimes that smile will turn into asnicker, and then often that snicker will turn into a burst of laughter.

我按平时的规律吃晚餐、打扫屋子、写作--做着日常事务。然后我躺下，希望能快点入睡，新的一天就能快点到来--拥有新生太阳的崭新的一天。可当我躺在那儿，等待着世界的日夜回转时，我想到了她。有时我会笑起来，有时那微笑变成了窃笑，然后窃笑又常常变成爆笑。

People often ask and are asked that what is the most important thing in

life. Some people answer that family is the most important and others say love,

work or money. In my opinion, health is the most important in life. However, how

to keep healthy?

Firstly, being positive. A positive attitude towards life must be good to

health. It also brings you power to overcome disease. Secondly, taking exercise

regularly. Taking exercise regularly or even every day helps you build a strong

body which is the base of health. Exercise can improve the ability of the body

to fight disease. Thirdly, making friends, because friendship is an important

part to influence your health. Many studies show that people with a wide range

of social contacts get sick less than those who dont. I always feel better when

I am with friends than when I am alone. Finally, eating properly, having good

rest and building normal daily routine are aslo important to health.

Health is a problem we should attach importance to. Only build a healthy

body can us live a better life.

参考译文

人们常常会问或者被问什么是生命中最重要的东西。有的人会回答家庭是最重要的，其他人会说爱，工作和金钱是最重要的。在我看来，健康才是生命中最重要的。但是，怎样保持健康呢?

首先，要积极。对生活的积极态度一定会对健康有好处。它也会给你带来克服疾病的力量。其次，要经常锻炼。经常甚至是每天锻炼能够帮助你建立强壮的身体，这是健康的基础。锻炼可以提高身体抵抗疾病的能力。再次，要多交朋友，因为友谊是影响你健康的重要部分。很多研究表明有广泛的社会交际的人比那些没有的人更少生病。当我跟朋友在一起的时候感觉比独自一人的时候好。最后，饮食合理，休息良好以及建立规律的日常生活对健康也很重要。

健康是我们应该重视的一个问题。只有建立健康的体魄我们才可以过上更好的生活。
