april fools day is traditionally a day to play practical jokes on others, send people on fools errands, and fool the unsuspecting. no one knows how this holiday began but it was thought to have originated in france.

传统上来讲，愚人节这一天，人们可以相互搞恶作剧，骗人跑腿，欺骗不知情的人。没人知道这个节日是怎么来的，但人们普遍认为它源自法国。

the closest point in time that can be identified as the beginning of this tradition was in 1582, in france. new years was celebrated on march 25 and celebrations lasted until april 1st. when new years day as changed from march 25 to january 1st in the mid-1560s by king charles ix, there were some people who still celebrated it on april 1st and those people were called april fools.

庆祝愚人节最早是在1582年，在法国。那时，当时法国新年是在3月25日，一直持续到4月1日。16世纪60年代中期，国王查理九世把新年从3月25日变为1月1日，而还有一些人在4月1日过新年，这些人就被称作四月傻瓜了。

pranks performed on april fools day range from the simple, (such as saying, "your shoes untied!), to the elaborate. setting a roommates alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. the news media even gets involved. for instance, a british short film once shown on april fools day was a fairly detailed documentary about "spaghetti farmers" and how they harvest their crop from the spaghetti trees. whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, "april fool!"

愚人节那天的恶作剧有的很简单(比如，说句“你鞋带开了!”)，有的却是精心设计的。把室友的闹钟往后调一小时是常见的。甚至新闻媒体都来凑热闹。比如，在愚人节那天，曾经有一部英国短片较为详细地记录了“种意大利面的农民”，以及他们如何从意大利面树上收获意大利面。不管是什么恶作剧，搞恶作剧的人通常在最后会对被搞的人喊一句:"四月傻瓜!"

april fools day is a "for-fun-only" observance. nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. nobody gets off work or school. its simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next april fool!

愚人节是一个“仅为娱乐”的节日。谁也不用买礼物，也不用带着男/女朋友出去到一家豪华餐厅去吃饭。人们也不会放假。它仅仅是个搞笑的小节日，但是在这一天，每个人都要保持警醒，不然就要被人耍啦。

each country celebrates april fools differently. in france, the april fools is called "april fish" (poisson davril). the french fool their friends by taping a paper fish to their friends backs and when some discovers this trick, they yell "poisson davril!".

每个国家用不同的方式过愚人节。在法国，愚人节被称作“april fish”。法国人和他们的朋友是这样开玩笑的：把一张裁成鱼形的纸用胶带粘到朋友的后背上，当有人发现的时候，他们就会喊：“poisson davril!”.

in england, tricks can be played only in the morning. if a trick is played on you, you are a "noodle". in scotland, april fools day is 48 hours long and you are called an "april gowk", which is another name for a cuckoo bird. the second day in scotlands april fools is called taily day and is dedicated to pranks involving the buttocks. taily days gift to posterior posterity is the still-hilarious "kick me" sign.

在英国，只能在早上搞恶作剧。如果你被耍了，那你就是“面条”。在苏格兰，愚人节要持续2天，被耍的人被称为“四月布谷”。苏格兰第二天的愚人节叫做taily day，恶作剧主要在别人的屁股上做文章。

Cheating On Exams

(1). 在各类考试中，都发现有学生作弊的现象。

(2). 作弊所带来的不利影响。

(3). 怎样制止作弊。

【参考范文】

With the development of the society, people pay more and more attention to education. As a result, thousands of students take part in various examinations. However, some students have been found cheating on their exams. Some of them copy from each others, some took out their textbooks or reference books to copy, some copied from small pieces of paper on which they had prepared for the exam, still some used the modern communication tools such as BP, mobile phone as a way to cheat on exams.Then, what’s the effect of cheating on exam? There are three factors for this. First, it results in an unfair competition and will destroy the creativity of those bright students. Second, it will ruin the students’ self-confidence in the long run. Third, under that kind of circumstances, the students graduated from the schools will not be the one who can meet the need of the society.

However, how to stop cheating on exam? In my opinion, there are two ways we can adopt. First, a severe punishment should be put into effect to prevent students from cheating. Second, great effort should be made to make students understand what kind of person the society needs and try to improve their self-confidence.

[以考试作弊为话题的英语作文

My favorite little animal is a chicken.

Just, my house downstairs 307 to raise a few chicks. Every day when we pass by, these chicks are leaning on the head to see us miles.

The chicks are full of hairy and cute. A golden feather like a golden dress. The chicks have a pair of pointed mouths. Round eyes to see people when it is quite spirit of it

I did not see their ears, but chicks could not have ears. If there is no ears, then we walked over, how they will be wiped out toward our head look at us?

Mother said, just hatched chicks can only eat small grains, can not eat millet or corn, but also often give them water. If there are small insects to eat them, they will grow more air.

I like these lovely chicks too much But Mom and Dad said that now can not raise, do not raise well, they will die.

Go down the hillside and see a piece of green sugar cane forest. The tall and tall sugar cane stood there straight, as if waiting for the soldiers to review, great and mighty! That kind of like a spear-like leaves, hand in hand, shoulder and shoulder, honey honey layers. The breeze passing, dancing, rustling.

Bypassing the sugar cane forest, presented in front of me is the vast expanse of rice fields. Rice ripe, heavy rice paddle bent rice Wo waist, a burst of autumn wind scouring, rice waves laughing, rolling, a layer of driving a layer of Yong Xiang far away. Farmer uncle standing on the edge of the river, see this grain full of rice, my heart is how sweet it!

Through the paddy fields, I strolled through the field path. Look, the sorghum red face, corn and yellow and large, sweet potato seedlings grow very lush, after the land covered with fields. Fan big taro leaves, with the autumn wind swinging west pendulum.

Suddenly, a burst of fragrant nostrils. I look forward, the original is a large orchard. Red persimmon like a small lantern like hanging in the branches, very bright. Orange tree more lively, and large and small orange red Yan Yan, yellow 嶝 嶝, and more bending the branches. A sentence, like a bell, as if the jingle is ringing.

Ah, autumn poetic, colorful autumn, it makes people beaming, it is people feast for the eyes.

I am a lovely little girl, although I am 9 years old, but the understanding of the animal makes you cant believe a ferocious tiger, strange Chinese sturgeon, a giant pandas, a naughty dolphins, with the lion king of the forest, a sly fox, and clever monkey in these animals, my favorite animal is the white rabbit, the rabbit is a common animal, but I saw a small white rabbit remembered in the snow in the joy! Because I like rabbits, so I know it very well!

小白兔长得很普通，雪白雪白的毛儿，非常漂亮，要是下雪，动物们一定以为白兔是雪中小精灵。长长的耳朵，像黑宝石的眼睛，还有一张三瓣嘴，宛如听了什么笑话，笑得嘴都裂开了。

The rabbit is very common, white hair, very beautiful, if it were to snow white, animal must think snow elves. Long ears, black stones like the eyes, and a three valve mouth, like to listen to what a joke, grin cracked.

我猜白兔长得不特别是因为它吃得不好，吃一些萝卜或者青菜，我就搞不懂它为什么不吃肉呀?如果我是白兔，我就吃肉，不吃萝卜。

I guess the rabbit isnt particularly because it is not good to eat, eat some carrots or cabbage, I do not know why it does not eat meat? If I was a rabbit, I eat meat, do not eat radish.

我很喜欢兔子，所以小时候妈妈给我买了一只可爱的小白兔，可惜它在我家只过了一天就死了，还记得那天中午，妈妈买了青菜，我就拼命地把菜往小白兔的笼子里塞，白兔狼吞虎咽地大吃起来，好像一个星期没吃饭似的。就这样我让它吃了很多青菜，结果它被吃撑死了呀!唉!我真希望兔子像千年老龟一样活那么长时间呀!

I like the rabbit, so when my mother bought me a cute little rabbit, but it in my home, only one died, remember that day at noon, my mother bought vegetables, I tried to put food into the small rabbit rabbit cage plug, eat like wolves and tigers to eat, If hadnt eaten for a week. So I let it eat a lot of vegetables, it is eat dead! Oh! I really hope that the rabbit like a thousand year old turtle live so long time!

听了我的介绍，你喜欢兔子吗?

After listening to my introduction, you like rabbits?

对于这次英语考试，我并不是很满意我自己，在语、数、英这三科主课中，我英语算是最好的，但这次只考了85.5分，在语、数、英三科成绩中占居第二。我一开始还很有信心拿90分的好成绩，但考好之后，我就有点慌了——我有一种不祥的预感：这次准考不好。结果我的感应“显灵”了——90分都不到。

拿到试卷后，我大略地看了一下我的试卷，扣分主要扣在听力、基础和阅读。听力好像扣了4、5分（忘了扣了几分了），基础扣了5分，阅读扣了……（貌似是在3到5分之间）。

我这次听力之所以扣了这么多分，我想有两个原因：一是因为喇叭出了问题，声音很轻，听不清楚；二是因为我没有仔细地听，有一道题就是因为没听出应该是填什么单词，所以导致白白扣了1分。

我的基础题么，扣的也是比较厉害的，有一道题我把“exhibition”拼成了“excibition”，使得我又白白扣了1分，看到我这拼错的单词时，我感觉好压抑：起初我为什么不好好背单词呢？这样就不会扣分了。

阅读题我感觉有一点点的难度，对于在外面补过课的同学来说那是“小菜一碟”。至今我的英语成绩70%的几率比那些补过课的同学高，所以我并没有怨恨我当初为什么没上补习班，而且我也不想上，逼迫一个人去干他（她）不想做的一件事又没有任何意义，搞得父母忧心忡忡，又搞得自己闷闷不乐，不仅累着自己，还累着父母（话是这么说，不过我也得在阅读上下下功夫了，不然我的成绩要像“乘电梯”一样滑下来了，呵呵）。

通过这次检查、认识自己的错误后，我在学习上有了一定的目标，以后我要更加努力地学习！我相信经过我半年的努力，期末考试一定能取得好成绩！

If you keep working hard, you will be successful. Then, you ought to speak English as much as possible. Remember an old saying, Nothing is impossible in the world if you put your heart into it.

In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.

People love to fly kites during the Qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the Qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars and therefore are called "god‘s lanterns."

The Qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past the Qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979 "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar.

相反的悲伤的墓扫墓，人们也希望享受春天的这一天。清明节是一个阳光灿烂的日子，树和草都变绿了，大自然又恢复了活力。自古以来，人们都有踏青的习俗。此时到处是游客。

人们喜欢在清明节期间放风筝。风筝放飞其实并不限于清明节。它的独特之处在于人们在白天不放风筝，晚上也放风筝。一串串的小灯笼拴在风筝上或是线上看起来像闪亮的星星，因此被称为“上帝的灯笼”。

清明节也是一个植树的时候，树苗的成活率很高，树木生长快。在过去，清明节被称为“植树节”。但自1979以来，“植树节”定在3月12日根据公历。

Situated in the western outskirts of Haidian District, the Summer Palace is 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) from central Beijing. Having the largest royal park and being well preserved, it was designated, in 1960 by the State Council, as a Key Cultural Relics Protection Site of China. Containing examples of the ancient arts, it also has graceful landscapes and magnificent constructions. The Summer Palace is the archetypal Chinese garden, and is ranked amongst the most noted and classical gardens of the world. In 1998, it was listed as one of the World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.

Constructed in the Jin Dynasty (1115-1234), during the succeeding reign of feudal emperors; it was extended continuously. By the time of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), it had become a luxurious royal garden providing royal families with rest and entertainment. Originally called Qingyi Garden (Garden of Clear Ripples), it was know as one of the famous three hills and five gardens (Longevity Hill, Jade Spring Mountain, and Fragrant Hill; Garden of Clear Ripples, Garden of Everlasting Spring, Garden of Perfection and Brightness, Garden of Tranquility and Brightness, and Garden of Tranquility and Pleasure). Like most of the gardens of Beijing, it could not elude the rampages of the Anglo-French allied force and was destroyed by fire. In 1888, Empress Dowager Cixi embezzled navy funds to reconstruct it for her own benefit, changing its name to Summer Palace (Yiheyuan). She spent most of her later years there, dealing with state affairs and entertaining. In 1900, it suffered again, being ransacked by the Eight-Power Allied Force. After the success of the 1911 Revolution, it was opened to the public.

Composed mainly of Longevity Hill and Kunming Lake, The Summer Palace occupies an area of 294 hectares (726.5 acres), three quarters of which is water. Guided by nature, artists designed the gardens exquisitely so that visitors would see marvelous views and be amazed by perfect examples of refined craftwork using the finest materials.

Centered on the Tower of Buddhist Incense (Foxiangge) the Summer Palace consists of over 3,000 structures including pavilions, towers, bridges, and corridors. The Summer Palace can be divided into four parts: the court area, front-hill area, front-lake area, and rear-hill and back-lake area.

Front-Hill Area: this area is the most magnificent area in the Summer Palace with the most constructions. Its layout is quite distinctive because of the central axis from the yard of Kunming Lake to the hilltop, on which important buildings are positioned including Gate of Dispelling Clouds, Hall of Dispelling Clouds, Hall of Moral Glory, Tower of Buddhist Incense, the Hall of the Sea of Wisdom, etc.

Rear-Hill and Back-Lake Area: although the constructions are fewer here, it has a unique landscape, with dense green trees, and winding paths. Visitors can feel a rare tranquility, and elegance. This area includes scenic spots such as Kunming Lake and Back Lake , which presents a tranquil beauty, Garden of Harmonious Interest , built by imitating the layout of Southern China’s classical gardens, and Suzhou Market Street, endowed with a strong flavor of the water town Suzhou.

Court Area: this is where Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu met officials, conducted state affairs and rested. Entering the East Palace Gate, visitors may see the main palace buildings: the Hall of Benevolence and Longevity served as the office of the Emperor, the Hall of Jade Ripples where Guangxu lived, the Hall of Joyful Longevity, Cixis residence, the Garden of Virtue and Harmony where Cixi was entertained, Yiyun House , where once lived the Empress Longyu, and Long Gallery, which measures the longest in Chinese gardens.

Front Lake Area: covering a larger part of the Summer Palace, opens up the vista of the lake. A breeze fluttering, waves gleam and willows kiss the ripples of the vast water. In this comfortable area there are the Eastern Bank and Western Bank, Seventeen-Arch Bridge, Nanhu Island, the largest island in Summer Palace, Bronze Ox, an imposing statue beside the lake, and Marble Boat, built in western style with elaborate decorations . On the western bank float six distinct bridges amongst which the Jade-Belt Bridge is the pretty!

Hello ！welcome to the special Chinese new years edition of discovering China. Im Alina Li and Im Ben Hedges, and today well be taking you through some of the most important traditions of Chinese new year and historical background. We will look at some of the legends behind Chinese new year and how to celebrate it. Here in the US and Chinese across the world.

The Chinese have specific way to celebrate their new year. If you walk down the street in Chinatown during Chinese New Year, you see a variety of ancient traditions such as red banners, firecrackers and lion dance performances, streets are filled with lively celebration.

However, legend has said that the new year has not always been a time of festivity. An Asian Chinese story told a chilly start to this festive holiday, it begins with an ancient Chinese beast called Nian.

Every New Year Nian would rise from swelling in the sea to ravage Chinese village in livestock and hurting people. The villages soon found out from a wise gray-haired old man that the only way to scare the beast away was to set off firecrackers and light lamps and to hang red banners on each door. As the story goes, this was the beginning of a tradition that would last thousands of years.

So this story leads to the creation of many of other traditions for celebrating Chinese New Year. lets take a look at some of these traditions.
