before the 1850s, the united states had a number of small colleges, most of them dating from colonial days. they were small, church connected institutions whose primary concern was to shape the moral character of their students.

throughout europe, institutions of higher learning had developed, bearing the ancient name of university. in german university was concerned primarily with creating and spreading knowledge, not morals. between mid-century and the end of the 1800s, more than nine thousand young americans, dissatisfied with their training at home, went to germany for advanced study. some of them return to become presidents of venerable colleges-----harvard, yale, columbia---and transform them into modern universities. the new presidents broke all ties with the churches and brought in a new kind of faculty.

professors were hired for their knowledge of a subject, not because they were of the proper faith and had a strong arm for disciplining students. the new principle was that a university was to create knowledge as well as pass it on, and this called for a faculty composed of teacher-scholars. drilling and learning by rote were replaced by the german method of lecturing, in which the professors own research was presented in class. graduate training leading to the ph.d., an ancient german degree signifying the highest level of advanced scholarly attainment, was introduced. with the establishment of the seminar system, graduate student learned to question, analyze, and conduct their own research.

at the same time, the new university greatly epanded in size and course offerings, breaking completely out of the old, constricted curriculum of mathematics, classics, rhetoric, and music. the president of harvard pioneered the elective system, by which students were able to choose their own course of study. the notion of major fields of study emerged. the new goal was to make the university relevant to the real pursuits of the world. paying close heed to the practical needs of society, the new universities trained men and women to work at its tasks, with engazuowenng students being the most characteristic of the new regime. students were also trained as economists, architects, agriculturalists, social welfare workers, and teachers.

There are many customs in our hometown of ezhou: the Dragon Boat Festival is the leaves, the Mid-Autumn festival is eating moon cakes, qingming festival worship... Today I will tell you about the Spring Festival of ezhou!

"Spring Festival, Spring Festival to, the streets and alleys are really lively", I believe that you are not strangers to the Spring Festival. The Spring Festival is a traditional Chinese festival. When it comes to the beginning of the month of the twelfth lunar month, every family begins to get busy: salted fish, cured meat, and sausages. The grown-ups have to prepare presents for the children. Everyone was jubilant and filled with sweetness and warmth.

On the 24th day of the twelfth month of the twelfth lunar month, when the sky was dark, the firecracker went off. Many people began to wear new clothes, and every family began to prepare elaborate dishes.

On New Years eve, the atmosphere of Chinese New Year was everywhere. There are red and red couplets on the door, and some New Year pictures outside. At night, the lights were blazing and the sound of firecrackers went on all night. The room was steaming, and everyone was happy to eat the dinner, the cup, the laughter. After dinner, the family gathered around the fire to watch the Spring Festival gala. Nearly all of us will be punctual this night.

Its no exaggeration to say that "the Spring Festival is booming". Look! Red spring couplets, red firecrackers, red red envelopes. Red in the auspicious!

Early in the early morning, many people are staying at home and sleeping on New Years eve. Young children like to pay a lot of money, because "pay money".

On the fifteenth day of the first month, the Lantern Festival arrived. Some big supermarkets hold guessing lantern riddles. Almost every time the lantern riddle activity, I and my cousin will participate, and each time will guess at a few, get a small gift! In the evening, many shops hang lanterns, but they are almost always the world of e-lanterns. On this day, every family will make dumplings and eat yuanxiao. Of course, the children who set off firecrackers on this day also have to hurry up, because after this day, the Spring Festival is over, and they cant play with firecrackers.

"In the sound of firecrackers, spring breeze sends warm to tu su." The Spring Festival brings us joy and happiness! Although the Spring Festival has passed, but its aftertaste is still in the air!

我们家乡鄂州的风俗很多：端午节系艾叶，中秋赏月吃月饼，清明节祭祖……，今天我就给大家讲讲鄂州的春节吧!

“春节到，春节到，大街小巷真热闹”，相信大家对春节一点都不会陌生吧。春节是中国的传统节日，到了腊月初旬，家家户户就开始忙碌了：腌咸鱼，晒腊肉，做腊肠……大人们还要给小孩子们准备礼物。每个人都喜气洋洋，心中泛着甜，窝着暖。

腊月二十四鄂州过小年，天一黑下来，鞭炮就响起了。许多人都开始穿新衣，家家户户也开始准备各种精美的菜肴。

除夕到了，各处都洋溢着过年的气氛。门外都贴上了红红的对联，有的家门外还贴年画。夜里，家家户户灯火通明，鞭炮声一夜不绝。屋里热气腾腾，大家开开心心吃着年夜饭，碰着杯，笑声连绵不断。吃完饭，一家人围在炉火旁，观看春节联欢晚会。这一夜，几乎所有人都会守岁。

“ 红红火火过春节”，这可一点都不夸张。看!红色的春联，红色的鞭炮，红色的红包。红色寓示着吉祥!

大年初一早，许多人都因除夕晚守岁在家睡觉，下午才会拜年。小孩子最喜欢到处拜年，因为“拜年”——“收钱”。

正月十五，元宵节到了。一些大型超市举办猜灯谜活动。几乎每次的灯谜活动，我和表姐都会参加，而且每次都会猜对几个，得到一些小礼品呢!晚上，许多店铺都会挂上灯笼，但几乎都是“电子灯笼”的世界。这一天，家家户户都要包汤圆，吃元宵。当然，这一天爱放鞭炮的孩子们也得抓紧，因为过了这一天，春节就结束了，也就不能玩爆竹了。

“ 爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏。”春节带给了我们欢乐和幸福!虽春节已过，但它的余味还在空气中弥漫!

今天是一年一度的的圣诞节。下午，老师给我们办了一场灯谜会。

老师给我们准备了四十条谜语。有猜动物的;有猜地名的;有猜生活用品的……

我们进入了紧张的比赛中。那时我的心好激动，看看其他同学，也是一样兴奋、激动。大家都聚精会神地听老师出谜语。

“尖长嘴，铁刺骨，咬一口，走一步。猜一种生活谜语。”老师一出题，我飞快一举手，老师叫了几个人没说对，而我越来越烦，为什么老师总不叫我呢?终于，老师便叫了我。我说：“针”。“错。”老师说。错了，那会是什么呢?老师又叫了徐小恒猜，徐小恒一语道破;“剪刀。”“对了!”老师说。“啊”我小声说道，“倒霉，我怎么没想到是剪刀呢?”

老师又出一题;“有眼看得准，有口咬得紧，有金钻劲大，有火放光明。打一字。”大家积极开动脑筋猜谜语，可连续说了许多答案，都不正确。后来，徐小恒说一个谜底“盯”。可老师却说;“只答对了一点点，还不是最后正确对待的答案。”过了一会儿，都没说对谜底，老师只好公布答案;‘有眼看得准’是‘盯’，‘有口咬得紧’是‘叮’，‘有金钻劲大’是‘钉’，‘有火放光明’是‘灯’，所以谜底是‘丁’。”“哎??原来是‘丁’呀”我们大家不约而同说道。

灯谜会上，我们都拿出自己的本领猜呀猜呀，结果我只猜对2个。但是我很高兴，因为我们过了一个愉快的圣诞节。

猜谜不仅开动了我们的脑筋，而且还丰富了我们的知识，真是一个有趣的活动呀!

Christmas Day is very popular around the world, which originates in western

春节一般指正月初一，是一年的第一天，又叫阴历年，俗称“过年”;但在民间，传统意义上的春节是指从腊月的腊祭或腊月二十三或二十四的祭灶，一直到正月十九，其中以除夕和正月初一为高潮。在春节期间，中国的汉族和一些少数民族都要举行各种活动以示庆祝。

圣诞节(Christmas)又称耶诞节，译名为“基督弥撒”，西方传统节日，在每年12月25日。弥撒是教会的一种礼拜仪式。圣诞节是一个宗教节，因为把它当作耶稣的诞辰来庆祝，故名“耶诞节”。

大部分的天主教教堂都会先在24日的平安夜，亦即12月25日凌晨举行子夜弥撒，而一些基督教会则会举行报佳音，然后在12月25日庆祝圣诞节;基督教的另一大分支——东正教的圣诞节庆则在每年的1月7日。

圣诞节也是西方世界以及其他很多地区的公共假日，例如：在亚洲的香港、澳门、马来西亚和新加坡。圣经实际上并无记载耶稣诞生日期，圣诞节是后人公定的。

The name Christmas is short for Christs Mass. A Mass is a kind of Church service. Christmas is a religious festival. It is the day we celebrate as the birthday of Jesus.

There are special Christmas services in Christian churches all over the world. But many of the festivities of Christmas do not have anything to do with religion. Exchanging gifts and sending Christmas cards are the modern ways of celebrating the Christmas in the world.

The birth of Jesus had a story: In Nazareth, a city of Galilee. The virgins name was Mary was betrothed to Joseph. Before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Joseph her husband was minded to put her away secretly. While he thought about these things, Gabriel, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and told him did not be afraid to take Mary as wife. And Mary will bring forth a Son, and he shall call his name, Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.

Before Jesus births, Joseph and Mary came to Quintus was governing Syria. So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. Joseph also went up out of Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and of the lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. So it was that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped him in swaddling cloths, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

And that, Christmas is the feast of the nativity of Jesus, is on 25th, December every year. But nobody know the actual birthday of Jesus. And the Christmas has become popular when Christmas cards appeared in 1846 and the concept of a jolly Santa Claus was first made popular in nineteenth Century.

【参考译文】

“圣诞节”这个名称是“基督弥撒”的缩写。弥撒是教会的一种礼拜仪式。圣诞节是一个宗教节日我们把它当作耶稣的诞辰来庆祝，因而又名耶诞节。

这一天，世界所有的基督教会都举行特别的礼拜仪式。但是有很多圣诞节的欢庆活动和宗教并无半点关联。交换礼物，寄圣诞卡，这都使圣诞节成为一个普天同庆的日子。

耶稣的出生是有一段故事的，耶稣是因着圣灵成孕，由童女马利亚所生的。神更派遣使者加伯列在梦中晓谕约瑟，叫他不要因为马利亚未婚怀孕而不要她，反而要与她成亲，把那孩子起名为“耶稣”，意思是要他把百姓从罪恶中救出来。

当马利亚快要临盆的时候，罗马政府下了命令，全部人民到伯利恒务必申报户籍。约瑟和马利亚只好遵命。他们到达伯利恒时，天色已昏，无奈两人未能找到旅馆渡宿，只有一个马棚可以暂住。就在这时，耶苏要出生了!於是马利亚唯有在马槽上，生下耶苏。

圣诞节便始于十二月二十五日纪念耶苏的诞生，但真实的诞生日就没有人知道了。十九世纪，圣诞卡的流行、圣诞老人的出现，圣诞节也开始流行起来了。

圣诞节(Christmas)是西方传统节日，在每年12月25日。弥撒是教会的一种礼拜仪式。圣诞节是一个宗教节，因为把它当作耶稣的诞辰来庆祝，故名“耶诞节”。大部分的天主教教堂都会先在24日的平安夜，亦即12月25日凌晨举行子夜弥撒，而一些基督教会则会举行报佳音，然后在12月25日庆祝圣诞节;基督教的另一大分支——东正教的圣诞节庆则在每年的1月7日。

Christmas is a Christian holiday that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. No one knows the exact date of Christs birth, but most Christians observe Christmas on December 25. On this day, many go to church, where they take part in special religious services. During the Christmas season, they also exchange gifts and decorate their homes with holly, mistletoe, and Christmas trees. The word Christmas comes from Cristes maesse, an early English phrase that means Mass of Christ. The story of Christmas comes chiefly from the Gospels of Saint Luke and Saint Matthew in the New Testament.

The history of Christmas dates back over 4000 years. Many of our Christmas traditions were celebrated centuries before the Christ child was born. The 12 days of Christmas, the bright fires, the yule log, the giving of gifts, carnivals(parades) with floats, carolers who sing while going from house to house, the holiday feasts, and the church processions can all be traced back to the early Mesopotamians.

Many of these traditions began with the Mesopotamian celebration of New Years. The Mesopotamians believed in many gods, and as their chief god-Marduk. Each year as winter arrived it was believed that Marduk would do battle with the monsters of chaos. To assist Marduk in his struggle the Mesopotamians held a festival for the New Year. This was Zagmuk, the New Years festival that lasted for 12 days.

The Persians and the Babylonians celebrated a similar festival called the Sacaea. Part of that celebration included the exchanging of places, the slaves would become the masters and the masters were to obey. The ancient Greeks held a festival similar to that of the Zagmuk/Sacaea festivals to assist their god Kronos who would battle the god Zeus and his Titans.

The Romans celebrated their god Saturn. Their festival was called Saturnalia which began the middle of December and ended January 1st. With cries of Jo Saturnalia! the celebration would include masquerades in the streets, big festive meals, visiting friends, and the exchange of good-luck gifts called Strenae (lucky fruits). The Romans decked their halls with garlands of laurel and green trees lit with candles. Again the masters and slaves would exchange places.

Jo Saturnalia! was a fun and festive time for the Romans, but the Christians thought it an abomination to honor the pagan god. The early Christians wanted to keep the birthday of their Christ child a solemn and religious holiday, not one of cheer and merriment as was the pagan Saturnalia.

Some legends claim that the Christian Christmas celebration was invented to compete against the pagan celebrations of December. The 25th was not only sacred to the Romans but also the Persians whose religion Mithraism was one of Christianitys main rivals at that time. The Church eventually was successful in taking the merriment, lights, and gifts from the Saturanilia festival and bringing them to the celebration of Christmas.

The exact day of the Christ childs birth has never been pinpointed. Traditions say that it has been celebrated since the year 98 AD. In 137 AD the Bishop of Rome ordered the birthday of the Christ Child celebrated as a solemn feast. In 350 AD another Bishop of Rome, Julius I, choose December 25th as the observance of Christmas.

The birth of Jesus had a story: In Nazareth, a city of Galilee. The virgins name was Mary was betrothed to Joseph. Before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Joseph her husband was minded to put her away secretly. While he thought about these things, Gabriel, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and told him did not be afraid to take Mary as wife. And Mary will bring forth a Son, and he shall call his name, Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.

Before Jesus births, Joseph and Mary came to Quirnius was governing Syria. So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. Joseph also went up out of Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and of the lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. So it was that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped him in swaddling cloths, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

And that, Christmas is the feast of the nativity of Jesus, is on 25th, December every year. But nobody knows the actual birthday of Jesus. And the Christmas has become popular when Christmas cards appeared in 1846 and the concept of a jolly Santa Claus was first made popular in nineteenth Century.

The custom of giving gifts to relatives and friends on a special day in winter probably began in ancient Rome and northern Europe. In these regions, people gave each other small presents as part of their year-end celebrations.

In the 1800s, two more Christmas customs became popular--decorating Christmas trees and sending Christmas cards to relatives and friends. Many well-known Christmas carols, including Silent Night and Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, were composed during this period. In the United States and other countries, Santa Claus replaced Saint Nicholas as the symbol of gift giving.

The word Xmas is sometimes used instead of Christmas. This tradition began in the early Christian church. In Greek, X is the first letter of Christs name. It was frequently used as a holy symbol.

Santa Claus was born in US in the 1860s he was named this as he had a white beard and a belly,so he was named Santa Claus as this was the Dutch word for St Nicholas,Sintaklaas.Although the Dutch had bought him with them in the 17th century,he did not become an important person at Christmas until the Novelist Washington Irving put him in a novel that he wrote in 1809.This first Santa Claus was still known as St.Nicholas,he did smoke a pipe,and fly around in a wagon without any reindeer,but he did not have his red suit or live at the North Pole,he did however bring presents to children every year.

In 1863 He was given the name Santa Claus and bore the red suit,pipe,and his reindeer and sleigh.

Now Christmas celebrations vary greatly between regions of the United States,because of the variety of nationalities which have settled in it.

In Pennsylvania,the Moravians build a landscape,called a putz - under the Christmas tree,while in the same state the Germans are given gifts by Belsnickle,who taps them with his switch if they have misbehaved.

Early European settlers brought many traditions to the United States.Many settled in the early days in the South,these settlers would send Christmas greetings to their distant neighbors by shooting firearms and letting off fireworks.In Hawaii this practice is still in use as under the sunny skies,Santa Claus arrives by boat and Christmas dinner is eaten outdoors.

In Alaska,a star on a pole is taken from door to door,followed by Herods Men,who try to capture the star.Colonial doorways are often decorated with pineapple,a symbol of hospitality.

In Alaska,boys and girls with lanterns on poles carry a large figure of a star from door to door.They sing carols and are invited in for supper.

The topic like“what’s a university?” or “what a university should do?” has been discussed many times in every age. Not only educationalists but also students take into it. Is it necessary to give priority to skills and knowledge in university education as they are essential to employers? Or students in universities should have access to all of knowledge just as they have their own sake? Chose A or B, this is a problem.

The value of knowledge itself need to be considered first in university education even though the course is not as practical as skills and technology. In Chinese culture, morality education is always took at first. It said that the way of real learning is to develop and expand virtue, to innovate peoples’ opinions, to get the best goodness. In addition, there are four stages in the success of a gentleman: first, to cultivate his moral characters; second, regulate his own family; third, rule the state successfully; forth, let the world get peace. In Chinese traditional value, students in

university need to develop his morality firstly, though these knowledge is not as useful as other skills after they get a job.

On the other hand, the practicability of a university course is also worth considering, especially in the age when our government call for the attention to skills and technology in university education and when the employees prefer to capacity and practical knowledge of employers. The time in university is limited and conditions and aims of students are different. When students chose which course to learn, it is inevitable for some of them prefer to those which are more needed in workplace.

Universities give equal access to all of knowledge, including the practical courses and others. What’s more, they need give more chance to students to choose what to learn. Congratulate on diversity!

There is a Christmastree in each family. It is decorated with small things and brightlights. During Christmas Day, many shops are busy selling goodsas presents.

圣诞节在西方国家是很重要的节日，它是指12月25日那天。人们有几天假期。他们回到家中举办一个家庭宴会。每个家庭都有一棵圣诞树，树上全是小的装饰品和亮亮的灯。圣诞节期间，许多商店忙着卖一些作礼物的商品，人们互相交换礼物。孩子们喜欢这个节日，因为他们可以收到许多美丽的礼物。

christmas is one of the most important celebrations of the year for the western countries. it falls on the twenty- fifth of december and has the same importance as chinese new year to people with english backgrounds. the celebration is for the birth of jesus christ, who is the son of god in christianity. now days christmas is no longer only celebrated by the christians, but by most people from all over the world.

on the twenty- fourth of december everyone gets excited for it’s the day before christmas which is called christmas eve. the children are usually sent to bed early and are warned that “santa claus will only come and give you a present if you be good.” the younger kids actually believe that santa will come down the chimney on the sleigh that’s pulled by his reindeers. food like short bread and beer are prepared for santa when he comes, however most times parents just eat them. some children put socks and sacks up for the holding of the presents (that their parents put in).

rise and shine on christmas morning! the children are always the first ones to wake up, some even do at four. present wrappers everywhere! they look into their presents with a big smile on their face and oh dear….i hope no one’s disappointed. i feel sorry for anyone that got pink underwear. children play while dinner is prepared by the adults. the christmas dinner are usually eaten together by relatives. the tradition of christmas pudding and roosters are usually eaten with deserts afterwards. the rest of the day is usually games and fun before the good days all come to an end.

i wish everyone a merry christmas and a happy new year!!!
