whats your plan for dragon boat festival?

As a chinese, I was really ashamed of having a little knowledge of dragon boat festival. Perhaps I was born in northern city, though my city is nearby sea, it has been built a U port which I can only see cargo ships and cant see the sweeping ocean. So I have never see the dragon boat contest since I was born. So the dragon boat festival is just a holiday for eating Zong Zi. My mother made Zong Zi when I was a child. Because there was no supermarket, we couldnt buy finished product from market. However, now, we can buy anything in supermarket, so my mother didnt make them anymore. The boat festival began to fade out my mind.

In reality, young people began to have a bug to celebrate foreign festivals, such as Christams, Saint Valentines day, April Fools Day, some people also celebrate Easter in church. Talk about Dragon boat festival, its the same as some foreign conventional festivals, such as Witchs Day in Czech. People burned the witchs puppet so as to welcome spring. Some people are willing to celebrate foreign festivals because they like alien culture. And vice versa, foreigners who like China also concern about Chinese traditional culture.

After new holiday regulation, we have three holidays during the dragon boat festival. So many people will choose this time to travel. People who lived in Xiamen are able to visit Xiapu or Wu Yi mountain, these tourist attractions are in Fujian province,which is suit a short tirp. but Id like to stay at home for my decorate painting. I decide to draw two canvases about Christmas, its really a big project. Then Ill hang them on the new house wall. I must start it now, or I cant finish them before Christmas eve. But I preceive its a little difficult to draw them in such a hot season. ​

你的端午节计划是什么?

作为一个中国人，我对端午节有点了解真是惭愧。也许我出生在北方城市，虽然我的城市在附近的海，它已经建立了一个U端口，我只能看到货船和无法看到席卷大海。所以我从出生起就再也没有见过龙舟比赛。所以端午节只是吃粽子的节日。当我还是个孩子的时候，我妈妈就做了粽子。因为没有超市，我们不能从市场上买到成品。然而，现在，我们可以买任何东西在超市，所以我的母亲没有让他们了。端午节开始淡出我的脑海。

在现实中，年轻人开始有了庆祝外国节日，如圣诞节、情人节、四月愚人节，也有些人庆祝复活节教堂。谈端午节，它同国外的一些传统节日，如巫婆的一天在捷克。人们焚烧巫婆木偶以迎接春天。有些人愿意庆祝外国节日，因为他们喜欢异族文化。反之亦然，外国人喜欢中国也关注中国传统文化。

经过新的假期规定，端午节期间我们有三个假期。所以很多人会选择这次旅行。住在厦门的人们都能够访问霞浦或吴仪山，这些旅游景点都在福建省，这是适合短期旅行。但我想呆在家里做我的装饰画。我决定画关于圣诞节的两画布，它真是一个大项目。然后我把它们挂在新房子的墙上。我必须现在开始，否则我不能在圣诞节前夕完成它们。但我认为其借鉴他们在这样一个炎热的季节，有点困难。

Chinese New Year is the most important festival in China. Before the Spring Festival People clean their houses，put red couplets on their gates，and set off firecrackers to drive away the legendary monster “Nian”.

On the eve of the Spring Festival, families get together and have a big dinner. Dumplings are the most traditional food.

The Spring Festival lasts about 15 days long .People visit relatives and friends with the words “Happy new year”. People enjoy the Spring Festival, during this time they can have a good rest.

Children like the festival very much, because they can have delicious food and wear new clothes .They can also get some money from their elders. This money is given to children for good luck.

In my childhood, summer holidays left a deep impression on me. They brought me many happy memories now.

Everyday we got up early then. Though there was not much modern entertainment, we could still be content with climbing trees, swimming in the small river, catching butterflies , bees and or something. Anyway, we could give a full play to our imagination and intelligence to enjoy ourselves.

The most enjoyable time in a day was night. All people would go out to be cool. They talked with each other freely and happily. Sometimes we would gather around an old grandfather and listen to an old story, which would always attract a lot of children. Our grief and joy all came from story. Sometimes we would carry out a small stool, made it as a horse, and then we would ride on it in a circle. We acted as knights. The front part of the stool was moved up and down to knock at the earth and sent out the sound of “du du…”. It was often followed with our folk songs. But parents could not accept this game because it was too noisy, and they couldn’t bear it. We were always forced to dismiss. But soon we could find a new program.

About the midnight, people would go back to sleep one after another. Under the pressure of parents, we had to go home, too. But as soon as we got to bed, the plan of entertainment next day appeared in mind. Then we could sleep with a smile.

We swarmed in, and I thought: the easiest place to hide is probably the most secluded place. So, I will seriously every corner to find it again, did not, in the look at the kid sister, drill under the bed, their tails on the outside, groping hands in it, no, she just want to stand up, "alas!" The little sister cried, and she cried, and she stood up under the bed and hit the bed.

So she stopped the game. Ah! One less opponent, but the cousin is also difficult to deal with, see her in the closet to each piece of clothing to turn over, wow! Not yet! But where exactly? I glanced around, and then I noticed a shiny object behind the curtain.

I pulled the curtain aside. Coke bottle caps! I was happy to jump three feet high, my cousin saw, a look of unconvinced. But shes picking up speed. Look for it here. I made haste, and under the bed and then watch out of the reach of little younger sister, and I found a coke bottle caps, my heart even more excited to get up, then I have found in a book under the last bottle. "Shout! It took me a lot of work! I sighed and said, my cousin, my cousin and my sister are all happy for me. The cousin said, "you are very observant!" I heard it, I was very happy.

In high school, Chinese students study very hard to fight for the future

college, while in western countries, students are spending time in taking all

kinds of activities. Though students from different countries have different

ways to spend high school time, they make the decision and take charge of their

life. This is the best age to learn knowledge, their brain can remember words

and numbers quickly. For making friends, they will probably meet their lifetime

friends. During three years, besides gaining knowledge and making friends, they

grow so fast, not only in body, but also in mind. Being independent is the main

feature. They can make a lot of decisions without asking parents for help. When

they are equipped themselves with basic skill, then they can better get used to

the new environment, which is important for future life.

In our daily lives, we have many choices to make, such as what to eat for supper,what clothes to wear, or what to do on weekends. At certain times in our lives, we need to make even more critical choices, such as which school to attend, what job to take or who to choose as husband or wife. Yes, life is a matter of choice. Seemimgly, it means a choice of tangible things. But in essence, it means choosing a way of life. Life is to be lived, savored, and enjoyed, not to be wasted or complained about.

Although we cannot choose our appearance, inborn gifts and even avoid unexpected disasters and adversities, we do have the privilege to choose to live optimistcally,to love our lives, to have dreams, and to cherish hopes.

Every morning when we get up, we have a choice of how we want to approach life that day. As for me, I choose to be cheerful.

日常生活中,我们会面临各种各样的选择,像是晚餐吃什么,穿什么或是如何度周末.而在人生中的特定阶段,我们需要做出更多关键性的抉择,例如教育,职业或者人生伴侣.生活就意味着一种选择.这种选择看似是对具体事物的判断,但归根究底,是一种生活方式的选择.任何无味的抱怨和虚度光阴只会带来乏味,生活的美需要细心品尝,用心体会.

尽管容貌和天资都是上苍给予,而人生旅途中的坎坷与荆棘我们也无法预计,那就让我们热爱生命,拥有梦想,珍惜希望吧.

每日清晨梦醒,我们都被赋予了选择生活的权利.而我会让一切从愉快开始.

If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance more often, and never give up a thing because it was or inconvenient. if we want light, we must conquer darkness. perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results. “there are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount the pyramids—the eagle and the snail.”

if i were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention; i would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. i would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once.the habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. i often hear grown up people say “ i could not fix my attention on the sermon or book, although I wished to do so” , and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.

if I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to the cultivation of the memory. I would strengthen that faculty by every possible means, and on every possible occasion. it takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately; but memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble. it only needs early cultivation to become a power.

Friendship, is a huge box, harvest happiness, also share the happiness.

The boundless huge crowd, find a friend? Difficult! Find a bosom friend? Even harder! But all this encounter, as if is god arrangement, let you accidentally get a precious friendship, are you willing to cherish...

Maybe, this is friendship, unexpectedly, of course, I was no exception.

Time reversal, back to the first true friendship that day.

"The bell bell bell..." As the bell rang, the students like the cage fly bird, "fly" to the outside of the classroom activities. Soon after, the laughter, the wind gone with the wind in my ears. Curious I walked out of the classroom, sat down next to the tree, watching a game of only two or three people, how I want to jump with them, dancing together, but timid I didnt do it after a week. When I plucked up the courage to join their games, they also dont hesitate to accept me. Immediately and how the wave in the game, is my best friend, also is I got my first friendship, and friendship is gradually in the interesting game...

Of course, there is more than a friendship. In fourth grade, seat in the class, a boy called wang kun tune in next to me. At that time did not think of his name will enter my "good friends" list. Because of the seat, our feelings increase day by day, helicopters to my bosom friends.

In this way, day after day, year after year, the four of us is not cut points of bosom friends, and also let me get happiness from a friend - especially in the rainy day.

Which is a rainy day, rainy day let people by surprise.

The rain, continuous underground, at any time change, sometimes big, sometimes small. Susin and I, in the face of the sudden rain, helpless. It was getting dark side, the rain has not stopped, even as wang kun and I decided to rush home, an umbrella to cover my head, I was surprised to look back a look, turned out to be He Mingbin. He seemed to know what I was thinking, but before I opened my mouth, took asked: "you also go to the east. Then go!" I happy smile, warm like a fire, suddenly occupied my cold heart. I do not know when, He Mingbin appear between the I and wang kun, open the umbrella said: "go, I just send He Mingbin to markets."

In this way, the four of us talking and laughing all the way to break the campus at the moment of silence.

At that moment, have far keep in my heart, because at that moment, let me understand what is the true friendship - lend a helping hand when friends, when you need help, friends will make you refreshed, but anyway, at the last moment, dont abandon a friend, abandon the friendship.

Say goodbye to primary school life with the passage of time. Level with friends together of the time only just months after graduation, may god keep our fate, but maybe not. Now, I think, cherish now, cherish the friendship, between the friend leave deep memories, can let friendship get true friendship!

Friendship, is to make me happy angel;

Friendship, is better than a cherry sweet happiness;

The raft of friendship, is to make life infinitely more important parts!

Friendship is not worth to cherish, isnt?

There is a saying that man proposes, god disposes, which means man plan the

things and the rest of the outcome lies in the luck. This saying reflects the

connection between hard-work and luck, which is though sometimes we have worked

so hard, luck occupies great position, the unexpected things happen and refrain

us from succeeding. In order to be successful, people work so hard, they believe

they can achieve their goals, but lacking luck stops them achieving their goals.

So working hard doesn’t mean bringing people success directly, they just need to

try more times, without luck, they still can make their goals. Luck can help

people close to success, without hard-work, they can’t be successful. Hard-work

and luck make people realize their goals, but without luck, people still can

make it by trying more times.

I have some good advice for your work。 If you can do the following things， you will succeed in doing everything。

Firstly， whatever you do， you must be punctual and hard—working。 If you sow a good seed， you will get a good harvest。 If the seed is in poor quality， the harvest will also be very bad。 And if you sow nothing， you will get nothing at all。 Nothing。

Secondly， you must be honest。 As honesty is the moral tuition that everyone should have。 If you treat other people friendly and sincerely， others will also respect you。

Thirdly， you must be tolerant to others， since no one is perfect in the world。 Everyone has his own faults， but if you can see everything on other persons perspective， there will be no problem at all。

Whats more， when you are in a big company， you should not only respect the leaders， but also get on well with the colleagues。 Sometimes， you should try to please your boss， so that you could have more chances to be promoted。

Last but not the least， dont ignore the little things， because such a little thing will have a great effect on your life。 So you should start yourselves at the bottom， in order to get enough working experience。 As you have enough working experience， nothing you will be afraid。

有的友谊会随时间的变化而变化，时间长了，友谊也变了。不过，时间可以一切，多年后你的老朋友当时对你是好是坏也许就会有一个答案了，每个人的人生观价值观都会随着时间而改变，那些关心你帮助你的朋友你一定不会想失去的，相信美好的记忆是会成为你去寻找和联系你的好朋友的动力的。

我相信友情是不会随时间而改变的，虽然时间能让人淡忘一切。但是真正的友情永远留在心中。

我同意时间可以带走一切，但永远带不走那一份美好的回忆。朋友不需要天天见面，却会在你需要的时候向你伸出援助之手。 我相信友情会不变，它是无处不在的。

最终还是要细心经营，什么感情都是要经营的。 时间是很残酷，也是很客观公正的考验。 不管是什么，不去用心经营最终都经不住时间的考验。 所以我认为没有“不变”的友情，要看你怎么做了。只要我们都细心呵护 那么我相信有情不会变 。

友谊是一种缘分的凝合，是不被时间所能左右的。只有缘尽了友谊也就随之淡忘了。缘起而聚，缘尽而散就这么简单。

友谊，永远在变的!但是，随着时间的流逝，真诚的友谊是越变越深厚的!

友谊是什么?友谊是我们哀伤时的缓和剂，激情时的舒解剂;是我们压力的流泄口，灾难时的庇护所;是我们犹疑时的商议者，蒙浑时的清新剂，是我们思想的散发口，也是我们沉思的锻炼和改进，友谊高中作文。

When asked about their opinion of career and family, people always respond differently. Some people deem it more important to pursue their career, while there are always other people who argue that family should be the number one in one’s life.

It goes without any question that career plays a key role in our life. In the very first place, career can give us an aim to live on. Without career, much of our living time will be certainly wasted. What’s more, career can provide us with a means to live on. Most of the people earn their income from a job. On the other hand, family is also an indispensable part of life, as many people will admit. Family is always regarded as a place where we can escape from troubles in life. In addition, we can obtain a sense of belonging to from family. Without it, anyone will feel lonely and desperate.

In my opinion, career and family are not in opposition to each other. Rather, they can enhance each other so that one’s life can become better and better. Therefore, it’s not a choice between right and wrong, but one between ideal and practical.

What is your favorite kind of music? Do you like jazz, popular music,

classical music, folk songs, blues, and so on? In high school I took one course

called music appreciation which I greatly enjoyed. This was not to learn how to

play a specific instrument but to learn how to read and listen to music as an

art form. We read the stories about the lives of many composers and the history

of the musical instruments themselves. Sometimes we listened to tapes at the

language laboratory, or concerts. Music is sometimes called a universal

language. A composer who cannot speak a single word of our language can make us

feel joy and pride, exaltation and despair, peace and mystery through his

music.

Christmas Day is very popular around the world, when that day comes, we can

see the Christmas products sell everywhere, though Christmas Day is not

originating from China, in our country, more and more people spend that day. A

foreigner pointed out that Christmas meant to be grateful for them, while for

Chinese people, it was just a day for celebrating. To me, Christmas indeed means

a day to have fun.

When I was small, I did not have the concept of Christmas, because in my

mind, I only knew Chinese traditional festivals, I liked Spring Festival best, I

could get a lot of money from parents. When I went to high school, all of my

friends would talk about Christmas Day when the day was near, so I started to

know it. Almost every young people like Christmas, but if you ask them what the

meaning of the day, less of them can answer.

The meaning of Christmas Day is to remind people of Jesus’s birth, it is so

important for the western people, but for me, I only want to have fun, everyone

is celebrating it, so I join them, being happy, that’s enough for me.
