The little black dog she is cute!

In black, shiny hairs, eyes with two white spots, like two white beads. On the head and on his thighs hair is very long, like a horse head to the ground. Straight ear, as if time in listening to what passed around. Thick and long broom tail swing, from time to time as a cleaner for free! More funny is that it always speaks with a wet nose toward me, like a sick child, seems to be very poor, in fact, I know it really want to play with me. In the invitation to me!

Later, our dog never in poison. It very sharp!

The little black dog is my favorite animals, because it brings me a lot of laughter! Do you like my what?

问我喜欢的小动物是什么，那我会毫不犹豫的回答——我家的小黑狗!

小黑狗的性情很温顺，很通人性。

我和它相处久了，产生了感情，它好像很理解我。每当我生气的时候，它就静静地蹲在我身边一动也不动，似乎想陪我度过那难过的时间;我高兴的时候，它就会围着我跑来跑去，“汪汪汪”地叫着，很讨人喜欢。

小黑狗可逗人喜欢了!

一身黑亮亮的绒毛，眼睛上面有两个白点，颇像两颗白色珠子。头上和大腿上的毛很长，像马鬓一样拖到地面。直楞楞的耳朵，好象时刻在倾听着周围有什么动静。又粗又长的扫帚尾巴不时摇摆着，像一个免费清洁工呢!更逗人的是它总翘着潮湿的鼻子向着我，像一个生病的孩子，看起来似乎很可怜，其实，我知道它很想和我玩。在向我发出邀请呢!

小狗的经历危险也有几次。

第一次是掉进了河里，幸好被人发现拉了上来，喂给它吃药，不久就好了。还有几次是被毒狗的人毒了几次，幸好也被及早治疗，才得脱险了。从那以后，它就能嗅出那些食物有毒，哪些食物无毒。后来，我家的狗再也没中过毒。它够机灵吧!

小黑狗就是我喜欢的动物，因为它给我带来了许多欢声笑语!你们喜欢的动我是什么呢?

Shakespeare in Love

文：渐行渐远的记忆

很多年以后，依稀记得那个冬天的一个下午，太阳十分慵懒，一如这个以慢节奏而著称的城市。祥和、静寂的气氛夹杂着几分淡淡的哀伤，窗外细枊无力地摇曳着。

世界上最可怕的是什么？梦想的破灭？青春的逝去？生命的终结……Shakespeare撕下一张又一张的稿纸，那支脏兮兮的鹅毛笔时而游曳于白纸上，时而停顿在半空……导演把镜头对准了Shakespeare紧锁的眉头和一张张被丢弃的废纸……何谓灵感？灵感无非是一种触动。当这位伦敦剧场界的新星失去其写作的灵感，无法再次触动尘封的心灵，这一切远比死亡来得可怕。

并不华丽的场景却真实地再现16世纪的伦敦闹市，跟随着主人翁的步伐，我们来到了剧场，这里正在招聘演员，男女主角的第一次见面就在这里发生。中国有句古话：冥冥之中，定有天意。Viola正是那位Shakespeare所需的能激发其灵感的女神，年轻的Shakespeare敏锐的感觉让他发现了 Viola是个漂亮的女孩，接着如同那些爱情小说里描写的一样，他们坠入了爱河。这时候Shakespeare的灵感如泉涌，并将他们的爱情付诸成文字， Viola成为他生命中的Juliet，而他这个Romeo也找到生存的意义。

如同众多的爱情悲剧小说里的情形一样，他们的爱情被残酷的现实所阻挠：Viola必须嫁给Wisher爵士，这是Victoria女王所钦定的，并且 Shakespeare早已成婚。在一场身分混淆、错综复杂的乌龙闹剧中，大吃干醋的未婚夫和未婚妻的情人决斗，私定终身的情侣偷偷调情，而年轻的 Shakespeare不但得为他的剧本想出完美的结局，也得为他自己的爱情找到快乐的结局。

曾为《钢琴师》、《跳出我天地》等欧洲名片谱写过电影配乐的英国新进作曲者Stephen Warbeck以其擅长的古典剧作笔法，既吸取了古典配乐上的欢快与幽默，又努力向时尚的剧情烘托靠拢。本片的配乐一直都维持了一股宫廷电影应有的典雅与高贵。音乐一路描绘着剧中人物的情感变化。影片从昂扬的揭开序曲，一路细腻且生动地描绘着剧中人物的喜怒哀乐，到及的深沉情绪中，紧密交织的古典交响曲式，慢板的钢琴曲及女高音Catherine Bott跨刀吟唱无一不紧扣人心。

人生如戏，还是戏如人生？我想Shakespeare在这一刻肯定是忘形了，所以他才演的这么投入，所以他的台词才会这么动人。

但是生活不是戏剧，生活同样也不是电影！有人说：武侠小说是成年人的童话。其实电影又何尝不是？就如电影里的Shakespeare，在舞台上他对着心爱的女人，当着众人的面，可以毫无顾忌地诉说着一切，而在现实生活中，世俗的差距就象一道鸿沟，两个相爱的人始终只能遥遥相望。

爱是需要表达的，爱也是需要争取的。看完电影，我想想也好笑：是不是我们永远在别人的故事里，流着自己的泪？

Layla Kaylif - Shakespeare In Love

Hes fought and hes fallen

Hes on his knees before hes on his feet

A sinister romantic

Oh, hes about to be and shes about to see

Teachin torches to burn bright

Shes hanging on the cheek of night

A snowy dove trooping with crows

He never saw true beauty till tonight

CHORUS:

Shell take him to the brink of deliverance

Show him that much

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

So he falls in love to feel that hes falling

Shell let him know his heart

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

Thats Shakespeare in love

Hes fought and hes fallen

Hes on his knees before hes on his feet

A glittery romantic

Oh, hes about to be and shes about to see

His bountys boundless like the sea

His love is endless, just as deep

The more he gives the more he has

`Cause both of them are truly infinite

CHORUS:

Shell take him to the brink of deliverance

Show him that much

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

So he falls in love to feel that hes falling

Shell let him know his heart

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

Thats Shakespeare in love

Thats Shakespeare in love

A sinister romantic

Hes on his knees before hes on his feet

CHORUS:

Shell take him to the brink of deliverance

Show him that much

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

So he falls in love to feel that hes falling

Shell let him know his heart

Oh, dont you know it

Oh, dont you know it

Thats Shakespeare in love

Thats Shakespeare in love

As is known to us,it is very harmful to spent too much time playing games on the internet.

Firstly,it is an enormous waste of your precious time.As a student,we are supposed to concentrate our attention on our studies.Secondly, it does great physical harm to your if you are stay up so often.You are likely to suffer from body imbalance as a result of exhaustion.Thirdly,your mental health will be seriously affected,too.If you completely immerse yourself in the unreal world and deviate yourself from your parents and friends,you will end up feeling lonely and isolated in the real word.

I hope someone who likes playing computer games will manage to control this problem and shift your attention to your lessons.Try to take exercises and communicate with others more often.In this way,you will live a more colorful and fruitful life.

Hello everyone, my name is Lee. This is really a great honor to have this opportunity, and I believe I can make good performance today. Now I will introduce myself briefly. I am 20 years old，born in Guangdong province, south of China, and I am a senior student at Guangdong **University. My major is English. And I will receive my bachelor degree after my graduation in June. In the past four years, I spent most of my time on study. I passed CET4 and CET6 with a ease and acquired basic theoretical and practical knowledge of Language. Besides, I have attended several Speech competition held in Beijing, which really showed our professional advantages. I have taken a tour to some big factories and companies, through which I got a deep understanding of English for application. Compared to developed countries, unfortunately, although we have made extraordinary progress since 1998, our packaging industry is still underdeveloped, messy and unstable, and the situation of employees in the field is awkward.

But I have full confidence in its bright future if only our economy can be kept at the growth pace still. I guess you may be interested in why I choose this job. I would like to tell you that this job is one of my lifelong goals. If I can work here,I will work hard. As to my character, I cannot describe it well, but I know I am optimistic and confident. Sometimes I prefer to stay alone, reading and listening to the music, but I am not lonely, for I like to chat with my classmates about almost everything. My favorite pastime is to play volleyball, to play cards or to surf online. From life at university, I learn how to balance study and entertainment. By the way, I was an actor in our amazing drama club. I have a few glorious memories on stage. That is my pride...

Yuandan is the first day of the lunar calendar. It is the day when the earth has circled the sun for one round and is beginning another circling. It represents a new beginning when people send off the old days and welcome the new ones. As the first day of the year, Yuandan has been considered to be the most important festival since the ancient times.

Customs

1. Kaisui(beginning of the year): According to the Chinese traditional custom, starting from haishi(9p.m. to 11p.m.)of the last evening of the twelfth lunar month, each family must prepare offering s to deities at the altar. At the same time, they too prepare food for the New Year day: The whole family will then stay awake together to attend to the year(called shou sui). After haishi, zishi(11p.m. to 1a.m.)will come, and this is the arrival of New Year(Yuandan). At this moment, people begin the celebration with fireworks. Vegetarian and sweet foods will then be placed are the altar for offerings, and incense be burned to welcome the deities. In the ancient times, it was believed that haishi connected the two years and thus was called kaisui.

At the same night, some families will follow the instruction in Tongshu and place preparing altar in the direction of the "fortune deity" during the "fortune time" to receive the deity. If the direction of the "fortune deity" is at the "ill position", people will choose to receive "happy deity" or "noble deity" instead.

2. There is an apparent difference in the custom of food taking on Yuandan between the Chinese in the northern and southern regions. The northern Chinese has the habit of taking jiao zi(dumpling made of flour with vegetable and meat wrapped inside). Some people may put a sweet or a coin inside jiao zi, hoping to have a sweet year after tasting the sweet and a wealthy year after tasting the coin. on the other hand, the southern Chinese have the taboo for killing on Yuandan. Therefore, they do not take meat in tee morning of Yuandan, so as to avoid bloodshed or mutual slaughter. In order to evade misfortune, they have the first meal of this day without meat. Instead, they take vegetarian food for the sake of virtue.

3. What is special during the New Year is that parents or elders will distribute red packets(ang pao or ya sui qian)to the children. People in the ancient times were more particular in giving away the red packets: the distribution took place on the eve of New Year so that the kids could suppress the past year and enter the New Year. Ya sui has the meaning of overcoming the unpredictable future. Representing the wishes for the healthy psychological growth of the children, ya sui qian symbolises the elders hope to see their children overcome all the unpredictable elements brought by the "year".
