A tour guide is a person who leads groups of tourists around a town, museum, or other tourist attractions. The guide provides commentary on the features and history of the location. The tours can be from as little as 10-15 minutes to extended periods over many days. Such a person normally possesses a qualification usually issued or recognised by the appropriate authority.

When I travelled in Nanjing, Yangzhou and Suzhou last summer with my parents, an idea always ran into my mind that I could consider becoming an English tour guide some day. Yes, why not? Travel can broaden my mind, deepen my knowledge of the beautiful in China, even in the world.

If I can realize my dream, then personally I can enjoy the beautiful scenic spots for free and earn money and enrich my life, thus uplifting my life quality.

On Saturday morning, I took part in the small reporter activity of the Texas daily newspaper with a great deal of excitement -- a special Christmas at education training school for ocean-going international foreign languages.

Before entering the classroom, we signed our name on the register on the wall, just like the star walking on the walk of fame.

As soon as I entered the classroom, I saw the main character of this activity, Santa Claus Weston. I thought it was really Santa Claus.

Santa taught us a lot of knowledge today. He told us the history of Christmas in English and told us a lot of English words about Christmas. In order to impress us, he also brought several small journalists to the stage to read English stories, and I was one of them. At first I was very fluent, but I got stuck in a word I didnt know. Santa taught me patiently, and after I finished reading, everyone clapped together.

Finally, Santa taught us to sing Christmas songs, although many words do not know, but I am still immersed in this joyful melody. I kept humming the song until I came out of the school gate.

Todays activity is very interesting, although time is not long, but very happy, make me very unforgettable.

Whenever the autumn, chrysanthemum fragrance of the season, we will usher in a special holiday - Chung Yeung Festival.

More than a thousand years ago, Du Fu Deng overlooking the ancient chanting of the ages - "September 9th Shandong brothers": "alone in a foreign land for the stranger, every festive times. Add corneles less one. "Through the clouds of history, but also a year Chung Yeung, then the song classic, like the voice of ... ...

In the evening of tranquility, I stood alone under a tree beside the avenue, and the sun slipped down, and crumpled through the fallen leaves, and cast a light in my eyes. And I was not able to get warm from that light, and feel that there is a bleak from the bone marrow. To see that the leaves of the leaves Guanghua no longer, even in this warm wind is also shivering cold, can not hold to fall down, like butterflies beautiful dance, and then attributed to loneliness. Wrap away, I feel like the abandoned and forgotten leaves, distant friends, in this distant city to breathe strange air, chewing thoughts of bitter fruit.

Out of the window, bursts of autumn winds, I once again looked up to see those flying in the air dead leaves. Suddenly feel that they are like a natural letterhead, and love is a passage of the world stamps, dead leaves exhausted the last life burned into a ray of brilliant, to countless off relatives and friends to send warmth and blessing, let the world no longer alone. The original as long as the heart of India, the distance will never block the truth; in fact, as long as the truth forever, End of the World but also close proximity.

每当秋高气爽,菊花飘香的时节,我们就会迎来一个特殊的节日--重阳节

一千多年前的今天,杜甫登高远眺吟出千古绝唱——《九月九日忆山东兄弟》:“独在异乡为异客,每逢佳节倍思亲。遥知兄弟登高处,遍插茱萸少一人。”穿越历史的烟云,又是一年重阳,再颂经典,宛如心声……

宁静的傍晚,我独自一人站在林荫道旁的一棵树下,阳光斜斜地洒下来,细碎地穿过零落的树叶,在我的眼睛里投下斑斑驳驳的亮光。而我却丝毫不能从那光芒中获得温暖,反觉得有一种从骨髓中散出的凄冷。看那枯黄的树叶光华不再,即便在这温暖的风中也冻得瑟瑟发抖,坚持不住就要飘落下来,像蝴蝶绝美的舞蹈,而后归于寂寞。裹衣离开,我感觉自己就像那些被抛弃和遗忘的败叶,远隔亲人好友,在这遥远的城市呼吸陌生的空气,咀嚼思念的苦果。

窗外,阵阵秋风吹袭,我再一次抬头看那些纷飞在空中的枯叶。忽然觉得它们很像自然的信笺,而关爱是一枚通行世界的邮票,枯叶用尽最后的生命燃烧成一缕缕灿烂,给无数异地的亲朋好友传递温情与祝福,让世界不再孤单。原来只要心心相印,距离永不会阻隔真情;其实只要真情恒久,天涯也不过咫尺比邻。

In the golden autumn, we not only ushered in the Mid-Autumn festival, National Day, but also ushered in the double ninth festival.

As early as thousands of years, there was already respect for the old mans virtues. In modern times, we can see respect for old people on the street, such as "taking the old man across the road, on the bus, and seeing the old man give his seat to him...

The government, in an effort to get older people to spend their old age, has opened an old university for the elderly, which is free. This kind of school runs a lot of subjects! There are art, dance, drama, martial arts, Musical Instruments... They are full of thirst for knowledge, and they are not satisfied with the old, unyielding heart, like a schoolboy, savoring the books "excellent taste".

On the day of the double ninth festival, grandma and grandpa went to climb mountains, drink chrysanthemum wine, and wear dogwood.

The double ninth festival, also known as the elderly peoples day, is a traditional festival in China. Hope to have fun on the day of double ninth festival, remember to pray for the old people!

在金色的秋天里,我们不仅迎来了中秋节、国庆节,而且还迎来了重阳节

早在几千年时,就已经有尊敬老人的美德。在现代,我们在大街上都可以看见尊敬老人的,比如说“扶老人过马路,在公共汽车上,看见老人就给他让座……

政府为了让老年人度过美好的晚年生活,特别为老人开办了老年大学,这种大学是免费的。这种学校开办的科目可真多呀!有美术、舞蹈、戏曲、武术、乐器……他们对知识充满了渴望,抱着不服老、不服输的心,像个小学生一样,品味着书中的“绝世美味”。

在重阳节的这一天,老爷爷奶奶成群结队的去爬山、饮菊花酒、佩带茱萸。

重阳节还有一个名称叫老人节,是我国传统节日。希望重阳节这天大家玩的开心,记得替家里的老人祈福!

全文共 1430 字

The 9th day of the 9th lunar month is the traditional Chongyang Festival,

or Double Ninth Festival. It usually falls in October in the Gregorian calendar.

In an ancient and mysterious book Yi Jing, or The Book of Changes, number "6"

was thought to be of Yin character, meaning feminine or negative, while number

"9" was thought to be Yang, meaning masculine or positive. So the number nine in

both month and day create the Double Ninth Festival, or Chongyang Festival.

Chong in Chinese means "double." Also, as double ninth was pronounced the same

as the word to signify "forever", both are "Jiu Jiu," the Chinese ancestors

considered it an auspicious day worth celebration. Thats why ancient Chinese

began to celebrate this festival long time ago.

The custom of ascending a height to avoid epidemics was passed down from

long time ago. Therefore, the Double Ninth Festival is also called "Height

Ascending Festival". The height people will reach is usually a mountain or a

tower. Ancient literary figures have left many poems depicting the activity.

Even today, people still swarm to famous or little known mountains on this

day.

第九个农历月的第九天是传统的崇阳节日,或是双第九节。通常是在公历的十月。在一个古老而神秘的书中,或是改变的书,“6”被认为是阴的,意思是阴性的,而数字“9”被认为是阳,意为阳性。所以在这两个月的九个月创造了双第九节,还是崇阳的节日。中国的“重”意味着“双”,如“双第九”被宣布为“永远”这个词一样,“永远”,都是“九”,中国人认为这是一个值得庆祝的日子。这就是为什么古代中国人在很久以前就开始庆祝这个节日的原因了。

为了避免流行病,上升的高度的习惯是从很久以前就传下来的。因此,“双第九节”又叫“身高提升节”。高处的人通常是一座山或一座塔。古代文学人物留下了许多描写活动的诗歌。即使在今天,人们还是要在这一天群到的或鲜为人知的山脉。

Nine nine Chongyang, as with the "long" is a homonym, in the nine figures is the largest number, the meaning of life for a long time。 In , our country the annual September 9 set as a festival for the elderly, cleverly combining traditional and modern, become respect for the elderly, and love for the elderly, help the elderly Festival。

This year the festival is coming。 For you, Chung Yeung Festival plan how had it? If you are a young person and Chung Yeung Festival this day you may gave the mom and dad a gift, or to travel, relax mood; or make a phone call to the home, let the warm greetings, a heart warming gift。 If you are an old man, you may have been a group of sympathy, or be invited to participate in activities。 Then Festival ended, but we do not like meishiren as the how how lead, must continue to show respect for the elderly, care for the elderly, care for the elderly。

Countries of the provisions of the Chung Yeung Festival this day is a festival for the elderly, the purpose of which is to use this to carry out activities to allow people to set up the consciousness of respecting。 The country has established a general acceptance of the festival, the important purpose is to remind the whole society for a certain thing, and not the only thing to do is to do。

Any activity that wants to be able to get the effect to be able to maintain a long enough time to show its significance。

In fact, the elderly are very simple, the park for a walk with the company, the weekend to go home for dinner, the phone call, can make them feel very satisfied and happy。

Parents should not only on this day, but also to remind himself, usually elderly care enough。 It is a year the Double Ninth Festival, from now let us more to care for the elderly, it is meaningful to the festival。

九九重阳,因为与“久久”同音,九在数字中又是最大数,有长久长寿的含意。年,我国把每年的九月九日定为老人节,传统与现代巧妙地结合,成为尊老、敬老、爱老、助老的老年人的节日。

今年的重阳节即将来临。对于你来说,重阳节计划怎么过呢?如果你是年轻人,重阳节这天你可能是送给了爸爸妈妈一份礼物,或者带他们出门旅游,放松心情;或者给家里打了一个的电话,让温馨的问候,成为暖心的礼物。如果你是老人,可能受到了一些组织的慰问,或者被邀请去参加活动。然后节日结束了,但是大家千万不要像没事人一样该怎么过就怎么过,一定还要继续尊敬老人,爱护老人、关心老人。

国家把重阳节这一天规定为敬老节,目的是用这种开展活动的方式来让人们树立尊老敬老的意识。国家设立一个社会普遍接受的节日,重要的目的在于提醒全社会对于某件事情的关注,而不是这件事情只有到了节日才想起来做。

任何一个希望能够获得效果的活动都要维持足够长的时间才能显示出它的意义来。

其实,老人们要求很简单,公园散步的陪伴、周末回家的晚餐、电话的问候,都能让他们感到无比的满足与幸福。

孝敬老人不仅仅要在重阳节这天,而且要时常提醒自己,平时对老人关心得够不够。又是一年重阳节,从现在开始就让我们更多地去关爱老人吧,那才是有意义的重阳节。

the ninth day of the ninth lunar month

The "Chong Yang Festival" is celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, and it is as such known as the Double Ninth Festival.

Climbing mountains: On the Double Ninth Festival, people customarily climb mountains, appreciate chrysanthemum flowers, drink chrysanthemum wine, and eat double-ninth cakes. The Double Ninth Festival is also the "Old Men Festival". Old people are especially meant to improve their health by taking part in the activities on the day of the festival.

Origins: The festival began as early as the Warring States Period (475 - 221 BC). According to the yin/yang dichotomy that forms a basis to the Chinese world view, yin represents the elements of darkness and yang represents life and brightness. The number nine is regarded as yang. The ninth day of the ninth month is a double yang day, hence the name "Chong Yang Festival". (Chong means "repeat" in Chinese.) The ninth month also heralds the approach of winter. It is a time when the living need warm clothing, and filial Chinese sons and daughters extended this to make the festival a time for providing winter clothes for their ancestors. The Double Ninth Festival, therefore, also became an occasion to visit the graves of dead family members. Clothes made of paper would then be burnt as offerings.

Family get-togethers: The Double Ninth Festival is also a time for family get-togethers. It is an occasion to remember ones ancestors, the sacrifices they made and the hardships they underwent. Often, family outings are organised during which people search to renew their appreciation of nature and to reaffirm their love and concern for family members and close friends.
