Nowadays, Hollywood movies dominate the market and many young people take

these superheroes characters as their idols. So some people start to feel

disappointed about the local culture, because they havent seen its essence. As

the world gets globalization, it is in need of building peoples sense of local

cultural heritage.

The preservation of our cultural heritage is the necessary task. The

culture contains the essence of Chinese peoples spirit, which has been tested

by time. When people admit our culture, we will be proud of being part of the

country, so as to enhance the unity and have the desire to make a contribution

to the society. The loss of cultural heritage will destroy a country, which can

be seen in history.

As the young generation faces the cultural shock in the globalization, so

they are easy to deny the local culture, because they know little about it. Thus

school should implant the education of culture and the government has named a

day called Chinese Cultural Heritage Day, in the purpose of advocating the

essence of local culture. When children grow up, they will fight for protecting

the culture.

We are going to the science museum tomorrow. There is an old thing show in the Museum. Do you know how we can get to the science museum?

So we can go there on foot .Walk straight to the west from our school, next turn left at the post office and walk for about 5 minutes, then turn right at traffic lights. You can find the People’s Park on the right . Walk straight, and you’ll see the science museum.

科学博物馆在人民公园旁边。它离我们的学校并不远。因此我们可以步行去那里。从我们学校向西直走，接着在邮局左转，步行大约5分钟，然后在红绿灯右转。你可以发现右边是人民公园。直走，你会看到科学博物馆。

Tammy was in a bad mood. Her parents had insisted that she was too young for a cell phone，no matter how much she begged. “But Sun and Alicia have cell phone!” Tammy cried. “If I don’t get one, I won’t be popular.”

“Having a cell phone doesn’t make you popular,” Tammy’s dad said. He is always saying stuff like this, As if he knew what it was to be in fourth grade. “Besides,” Dad said, “your school doesn’t allow cell phones, and you can call your friends from the house as soon you finish your homework.”

“But I can’t send them text messages,” Tammy relied.

“You can use email,” Mom said. “Cell phone are expensive. we want you to wait until you can pay for part of the cost before you got one.”

“By that time I won’t need one,”Tammy said. “Nobody will know who I am. I might as well moved to a desert island!”

“In that case, I’ll get you some empty bottles and some paper,” Dad said. “Bottle messages are much cooler than text messages.”

“Ugh,” sighed Tammy.

时光一天天地流逝，如今的我，已经是一名五年级的学生了。但是小时候的事情仍然历历在目。以前因幼稚做出的趣事也经常引起我的遐想。

Time passes day by day, now I am a fifth grade student. But when I was a kid, I still remember it. I used to daydream about the funny things I made because of my childishness.

记得我上学前班的时候，有一天放学后，妈妈让我复习那天学习的知识。可是我很贪玩，不想复习，就说：“我都会了，没必要复习!”妈妈说：“既然你都会了，就给我出题吧!”我听了，顿时来了兴致。要知道，我的梦想就是当一名老师，因为当时我认为当老师就不用学习，还可以管着好多人，让别人写题。这次我的梦想能实现啦!

I remember when I was in preschool, one day after school, my mother asked me to review the knowledge I learned that day. But I am very playful, do not want to review, said: "I can, there is no need to review!" mother said: "since you can, give me the problem!" I listened, immediately came to the interest. You know, my dream is to be a teacher, because at that time I thought that when I was a teacher, I didn#39;t have to study, and I could manage many people and let others write questions. My dream can come true this time!

于是我一溜烟跑到屋子里，从抽屉里拿出一张纸，一本正经地写起来。没想到，不写不知道，一写竟然就上了瘾。出一张卷子已经不能满足我了，后来，我又给爸爸、爷爷、奶奶等人出题，到最后还为他们判成绩、排名次。可是他们总是做错题，我非常认真地帮他们改正，并且不厌其烦地为他们讲解，然后把卷子贴在墙上“展示”。每当他们偷懒不想做，我就会批评他们不爱学习。过了几天，我家墙上就贴满了

So I ran to the house, took a piece of paper out of the drawer, and wrote it seriously. I didn#39;t expect that if I didn#39;t write, I would become addicted. It#39;s not enough for me to produce a test paper. Later, I gave the questions to my father, grandfather, grandmother, etc. and at the end, I gave them scores and rankings. But they always make mistakes. I#39;m very serious to help them correct them, and I#39;m not tired of explaining them, and then paste the paper on the wall to "show". Whenever they are lazy and don#39;t want to do it, I will criticize them for not loving learning. After a few days, the walls of my house were covered

卷子，密得如同贴上了一层壁纸。每当家里有客人来，我都要洋洋得意地带他们“参观”贴满卷子的屋子。他们都夸我是一个负责人的“好老师”。我更得意了，又出了更多的卷子……

The paper is as close as a layer of wallpaper. Whenever there are guests at home, I will proudly take them to "visit" the room covered with papers. They all praised me as a "good teacher" in charge. I#39;m more proud, and I have more papers

现在我长大了，对小时候的事情有了深刻的理解。其实，他们是故意将题做错，为的是让我多练习。我还傻傻地把它当成一件神圣的事，现在想起来是多么的有趣。多次的出题和批改都是一种对知识的巩固。多亏了这件有趣的事，为我现在的学习打下了良好的基础。我现在终于明白了当一名老师不是一件简单的事，不但要知识渊博，而且还要极强的责任心和爱心。以后我还要更加努力学习，争取当一名真正的老师。

Now that I am older, I have a deep understanding of what happened when I was a child. In fact, they deliberately made mistakes in order to let me practice more. I also foolishly regard it as a sacred thing, and now it#39;s so interesting to remember. A lot of questions and comments are a kind of consolidation of knowledge. Thanks to this interesting thing, I have laid a good foundation for my study now. Now I finally know that being a teacher is not a simple thing, not only knowledgeable, but also a strong sense of responsibility and love. In the future, I will study harder and strive to be a real teacher.

water is very important for us.

we must drink water everyday. we can’t live without water. water is everywhere around us. at home, we use water to wash clothes, to wash dishes, to cook rice, to clean the flat, to have showers, to make drinks, to clean our teeth, to have a bath and so on.

at work, people use water to put out fires, to grow vegetables, to make things in factories and so on. we also can swim in the sea.

water is important for us, isn’t it?

英语字母教学作为英语学习的基础，是小学英语教学中重要一环，这一阶段的教学，教师应给予足够的重视，通过各种教学组织形式使这一阶段的学习得以很好的落实。学好26个字母对以后单词的学习起着至关重要的作用。因此，在学习字母阶段，我们要利用一切可利用的资源，创设情境，让学生和字母交朋友、做游戏。

一、字母读音教学

1. 注重示范发音的正确性

字母发音直接影响着学生单词的发音，而且学生错误的发音一旦形成就很难再纠正。因此教师在教学字母之前一定要多听录音，纠正好自己的发音。在课堂教学中教师要让学生听磁带跟读，观察他们的口形，并鼓励模仿得好的学生示范领读，帮助其他同学纠正发音。

2. 把握学生的发音难点

受各地方方言的影响，学生对字母的发音往往会出错。比如：南方人容易把A读成/e/。因此，教师要把握好学生方言发音难点，预先采取各种教学方法防止错误发音的出现。

3. 强化个别字母教学

尽管许多学生对字母有了一定程度的掌握，但大多数学生都没有进行过系统的字母学习，中间难免存在着许多似是而非的现象。例如学生对GgJj两个字母的读音容易混淆，对Uu和Ii这两个字母的发音不到位。教师在教学中应针对这种情况加强这几个字母的训练。

4. 注重读音归类教学

把字母按读音进行分类是字母读音教学的一个重要任务，也是学生觉得有一定难度的一项内容。为了使学生能更好得掌握，教师可采用分家游戏的方法，按家族将26个字母进行分类记忆。首先将字母划分为七个家族，再对号入座，最终编成一首音素家族chant 帮助学生记忆：

A、H、J、K 是A 家族，A，A是族长。

E的家族有八位，BCDE，GPTV，E，E是族长。

/e/ 的家族没有族长，它的成员有七位，FLMN，SX 和Z。

U 的家族有三位，UQW，U，U是族长。

I 的家族有两位，IY，I，I是族长。(手势指着自己)

R 和O单独住，它们自己是族长。

5. 注重语音暗线的铺垫

在三年级下册学生用书中，字母读音和字母例词的安排是一条语音暗线，教师教学时要努力让学生掌握字母的正确读音，并初步感知字母在例词中的读音，为以后学习语音奠定基础。比如讲到字母Ee时，例词是egg，elepghant，教师可突出字母E的发音。英语有48个国际音标，如果学生能在学习 26个字母的同时掌握与此相关的26个音素，将会为以后的语音学习打好基础。

二、字母书写教学

字母的书写过程要一步步进行：先观察性状，再观察笔顺、占格情况，然后书空，使用活动手册进行描红，最后达到仿写。

1. 字母认读的教学

字母的书写首先要求学生能正确区分一些形近的字母。有些字母可以通过猜谜的方法让学生记住它们的形状特点。例如：弯弯的月牙(C)、一条小蛇 (S)、三叉路口(T)、1加3(B)、一座宝塔(A)、胜利的象征(V)、大号鱼钩(J)、一张弓(D)、一扇小门(n)、一棵小苗(r)、一把椅子 (h)。这些谜语既能让学生记住字母的形，又能激发学生的学习兴趣。同时，还可以让学生自编谜语学习字母，充分发挥学生的想象能力。另外，还可以将字母的一部份遮住，让学生根据漏出来部分来猜字母。

2. 字母书写的教学

字母的书写是小学生的一个薄弱环节。小学的英语书写一定要求学生做到严格遵照书写规范，教师绝对不能马虎。因为英语字母有印刷体和书写体之分，所以容易使学生在书写时发生混淆，教师在教学时应多在这方面进行强调。

(1)笔顺教学

教师要充分利用多媒体设施让学生仔细观察字母的笔画和笔顺。正确的笔顺在活动手册的描红练习中有正确的示范。但有时学生会受到汉语拼音笔顺的影响，错误书写字母，因此教师要对容易出错的笔顺进行比较细致的指导。如i和j都是后加点，t先写钩，H先两竖等。建议教师不妨采用汉语拼音的教法，使用一些形象的比喻，帮助学生理解记忆书写规则，防止笔画出错。比如：H是一双筷子拴根线，j是海豹顶皮球，i是小海狮头上顶个球，t是伞把带开关等。

(2)格式教学

字母的占格同样是字母书写教学中的一个教学难点，尤其是当字母的大小写混在一起的时候，学生很容易混淆。这样，教师要先清楚示范，提醒学生注意并总结字母占格的规律。同时，教师还可以借助儿歌帮助学生掌握字母的占格规律。如：英语书写，四线三格，大写字母一二格，上不顶线是原则;小写字母认准格，上面有 ‘辫’一二格，下面有‘尾’二三格，无‘辫’无‘尾’中间格;i，t中上一格半。在学生掌握了字母的占格规律后，还要通过活动手册上的描红来加强练习。这里要注意的是，到一定阶段的时候，教师要让学生能在没有四线格的一条线上，甚至是没有任何线的白纸上也能正确地表示出字母的书写格式。

三、操练

字母操练我们还可以采用游戏的形式。

1. What’s missing?游戏

学了几个字母以后，把字母卡片放在一起让学生认读，然后抽去其中的一张，让学生寻找：What’s missing?此时，学生注意力高度集中，急于表现自己，识记的效果就会很好。

2. 左邻右舍游戏

学生准备好已经学过的字母卡片，教师出示一个字母，让学生找出它的左邻右舍，请找到的几个学生快速把字母拿到讲台上站在相应的位置上，其余的学生一起认读这几个字母。

3. Make letters游戏

让学生用肢体动作表示不同的字母，或让学生用火柴棒拼出不同字母的形状。

以往的周末，我通常是美美地睡个懒觉，然后起床做作业，看看课外书，找隔壁的小伙伴下下棋，跳跳绳等，这个周末对我来说可是有点不同哦，因为今天是我第一次到同学家玩，我欣喜万分。

今天下午晴空万里，我和同学约好了去他家玩。吃好午饭我就兴高采烈地出门了，来到他家，我们决定一起打羽毛球。打球开始了，先是徐鑫楚发球，一个朝下直线式的下发球，我一个箭步向前冲去，还是扑了个空。轮到我发球了，我一个弧形球发过去，徐鑫楚一个跳跃接住，回打过来，我一挥羽毛球拍又打回到徐鑫楚那里。正互相打得激烈时，徐鑫楚的爸爸突然进来了，我心里暗暗想：这下他要分心了。果真他一个不小心，球落地了。我正在得意时，一个不留神徐鑫楚打过来的球又落地了，我真是不小心，又白白浪费了一个好球。又要轮到我发球了，我暗下决心：一定要认真接好每个球。在以后的每局中，我都是认真迎战，屡屡获胜，我觉得心里美滋滋的。

时间过的真快，一个下午很快就过去了，我跟徐鑫楚告别后，就回家了。第一次去同学家玩的感觉真难忘，我真希望自己的周末每次都能这样精彩！

My Grandpa and me

In this old photo, It’s my grandfather and me. My mum took it for us ten years ago. The tall and strong man in the photo was my grandpa. He had black hair, blue eyes, big nose and a big mouth. He was a teacher when he was young. At that time, he was very kind，honest and hardworking. His pupil always said he was a good teacher. Now he is retired. Beside my grandpa was me. I was a cute, healthy baby. But at that time, I had no hair, so I often wore a hat. I was a very naughty baby too. I was always in trouble. But my grandpa said who was not naughty when he was young. Maybe naughty is the children’s nature. So, I like my grandpa very much. I think he knows the children very well.

We were happy in the old house. But now, my family move into Shawan, so we are far away from my grandpa. One year ago, we got a letter from my grandfather. He said he would come to Shawan to see us. I am very excited. I hope that day can come soon. At that time, we will be very happy together.

阳春三月，春风徐徐，鲜花百态。一朵朵红艳艳的木棉花开满了枝头，像给木棉树披上了一张红袍，给城市增添了许多生机。

木棉花，也是许多城市的市花。木棉花还有一个名字叫做英雄花，为什么呢？原来，是因为它的颜色鲜红，像是用英雄的鲜血染过似的。它又大又圆，惹人喜爱。它还有许多药效。可煲凉茶清热祛湿，还可以煲汤清热解毒。每到花开时，老人，小孩都喜欢来到树下捡起来晒干收藏。我看到一朵朵美丽的木棉花儿，忍不住也来到树下。

一到树下就看见许多等花的小朋友，我抬头向木棉花看去，突然，一只小鸟飞过，一朵鲜艳的木棉花掉下来，我连忙跑过去，意图拣起来。可是别人已一马当先，等我冲过去，那朵花已经是别人的囊中之物了。我只能重新再等。我抬着头看着木棉花，期待着花儿赶快掉下来，忽然，有两朵花一起掉下来，我急忙跑过去，这次，两朵花儿都归我所有了，哈哈！不一会儿，我就捡了满满一大袋了。看着那盛开的木棉花像解放军叔叔胸前戴着的大红花。染红了一棵棵大树。它给江边的景色添加了色彩，它给春天带来了许多生机。

回到家，妈妈叫我把木棉花串成一串，挂在阳台上。我问妈妈：“为什么要晒干呢？这样子不是挺好看的吗？”妈妈说：“因为晒干之后才可以入药。”

今天我的收获可真不少啊！既收获了许多木棉花，又收获了许多关于木棉花的知识。

Here is a difference between science and technology.Science is a method of

answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical

problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between

observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to

organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with

tools,techniques, and procedures for implementing the findings of science.

Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the

progress in each. Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who

seek to comprehend the universe and know the truth with the highest degree of

accuracy and certainty, cannot pay heed to their own or other peoples likes or

dislikes, or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists

discover may shock or anger people--as did Darwins theory of evolution. But

even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the

option of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology;we do not have

the option of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic

aircraft-flying overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to breathe

polluted air. Unlike science, progress in technology must be our slave and not

the reverse. The legitimate purpose of technology is to serve peopie--people in

general, not merely some people; and future generations, not merely those who

presently wish to gain advantage for themselves.

We are all familiar with the abuses of technology. Many people blame

technology itself for widespread pollution, resource depletion and even social

decay in general--so much so that the promise of technology is obscured. That

promise is a cleaner and healthier world. If wise applications of science and

technology do not lead to a better world, what else will?

I like animals very much. I have a dog, It’s my favourite animal. It’s white, It looks like a snow ball. It has two big eyes and ears. But its nose and mouth are very small. It’s very naughty.

It often stares at my food when I have a meal. When I’m home it follows me all the time.

When I do my homework, it often sits beside quietly, but sometimes runs around me and shouts: wom wom.

I like my dog very much.

1889年7月14日,由各国马克思主义者召集的社会主义者代表大会,在法国巴黎隆重开幕.这次大会上,法国代表拉文提议：把1886年5月1日美国工人争取八小时工作制的斗争日,定为国际无产阶级的共同节日.与会代表一致同意,通过了这项具有历史意义的决议.从此,“五一”国际劳动节诞生了.

下午，还是万里无云，大大太阳当空照。而我心情也一样，因为我要去学英语了。在路上，妈妈千叮咛万嘱咐：“说学英语一定要认真，一点也马虎不得，不然，就学不好读不准。”“哦，知道了。”我似懂非懂，怀着好奇的心情，不知不觉就来到了学英语的地方，在老师的指导下，来到了教室里。

过了一会儿，开始上课了。老师先教我们三个字母，还做了三个形状。接着，老师又教我们蜜蜂、大海、树的单词和音标，还做了手势。同学们跟老师一边读单词，一边做手势很快就学会了。老师见大家都会了，就玩了一个叫小火车的游戏，轮到我了，老师问：“树怎么读?”我张口就念了起来，老师说我念的不错，还表扬了我。不一会儿，游戏结束了。老师又开始绘声绘色地把课讲了起来，大家也聚精会神地听着。大概是第一次接触英语的缘故，时间越长我就越听越糊涂，还忘了好几个单词，回家还把字母、音标、单词全搞乱了。晕!看样子还要继续努力呢!

这真是一堂精彩又糊涂的英语课啊!

Last year, my friend gave me a little dog. i was fond of him very much. i liked to play with him after school and he liked to follow me wherever i went. i was very glad that i had a "body guard".

Last winter i was very busy with my lessons and came home very late every day.however, no matter how late i went home, my dog used to stand at a comer near my school waiting for me. when i passed there, he barked two or three times then ran towards me. it seemed that he was calling me.

My dog not only,took good care of me, but also was respoasible at home. when strangers came to my house, he barked at them but not hurt them. what a lovely dog he is! (135 words)

我家的小狗

去年，朋友送我一只小狗，我非常喜欢它，放学后就和它一起玩耍，无论我走到哪儿它都跟在身后。我很高兴有这样一位“保镖”。

去年冬天我忙于功课，每天回家都很晚。然而无论我到家多晚，这只小狗总是在学校附近的一个角落处等我。当我从那经过时，它全冲我叫两声然后跑过来，似乎它是在叫我。

我家的狗不但对我照顾周到，而且还肩负着看家的重任，每当有陌生人来到我家，它总是叫个不停，但并不咬他们。多么可爱的一只狗啊!

With the development of society, the competition of the entire society is

more and more intense, causing increasing pressure to people. Stress of study,

work and life are ubiquitous, but how can we deal with it? Here are some tips

that I hope can be useful.

Firstly, keep good health. A healthy body is the premise to face presure.

It’s the least capacity to cope with stress when a person is sick. Secondly, to

accept the pressure. The reason why many people can not cope with stress is that

they resist and escape it. Actually, there always is trouble and problems once

we chose a path to go, because almost everything worth doing is not so easy.

Thirdly, solve the problem, rather than complain about it. Many people complain

about the surroundings and don’t think about the solutions when faced with

problems. We all know that complaint can do nothing but only let you down. As

long as the problem not solved, the pressure is always there. Fourthly, tell

others your pressure and get help from them. Lots of pressure can’t be solved by

our own and the rational way is talking the pressure to workmates or friends to

get help from them. But the premise to do so is that we don’t intend to put

pressure to others but to seek help and support to solve problems.

Of course, there also are some other ways to cope with stress, such as

readjusting goal and expectation, playing games to relax, even shopping or

eating. But no matter how, solving the problem that causes stress is the best

way.
